powerful lever Nhich Paine's celery com

weak body strong. and to drive out dis

Paine's celery compound supplies just
that needed, appropriate food that the
overworked nerves are often too feeble
to extract, unaided, from the mass Of
food taken into the stomach. Paine's
celery compound increases the appetite
and puts the digestive organs into shape
to pass the food over to the blood in
such a perfectly prepared condition that
the change into nerve, brain and tissue
substance is easily and fully brought
about, without waste of nervous energy
or wear upoas the liver, kidneys, heart or

In the scientific, ~ccura fashion,
Paine's celery compound permanently

healthy conditions that grow u of over

A new Coinage Freak.

A Newark lawyer, who appears to be
an enthusiastic Democrat, sends us a
long lettss, endorsing a draft of a cur
rency blank, upon which he thinks both
wings OF the party can unite in present
State elections and in the National cleo
ton in 1890. Now we think that the cur
rency question had better be kept out Of
the State contests altogether, and we
confidently expect there will be only one
wing to the party in the sweet by and by.

AN ingram carpet trust is an amusing
development of a tariff, which was adopt
ed altogether in the interests of the
poor. OF course, we all know it is men
like Mr.. Vanderbilt and Mr.. Gould and
Mr.. Hanna who use ingram carpets.
The news comes from Boston. 1t is tq
the effect thu with the great advance
in wool higher costs require higher
prices, and it has been felt that there
was a need of a strong combination to
regulate prices and to do way with a
wasteful duplication of expenses and the
cutting of prices, which is injurious, not
only TO the manufacturers, but TO all
dealers. 1t was proposed at first to take
in all the carpet mills, but at present the
combination relates only to ingram car
pets.
No doubt Mr.. Dingley considers that
any American who canno earn enough
in these piping times of protection to
buy Brussels carpet should be content
with bare floors.

THE vagaries of the Evening Post
are amusing.
In one column it SCOTS at the idea Of
our going 70 war because We are not pre-
pared.
In another column it derides the notion
of our preparing for the possibility OF
war, because no such thing can exist,
and it is mere lingo talk.
In still another it prints a letter from

especially for the marked success Of
his foreign policy.
So preparation for war and active jim
