The true northerner., 1898-08-10

The old obstacles that used TO prevent
the marriage of loving couples are out Of
date The blood and thunder william is a
myth nowadays. The cruel father is only
a tradition. Distance, absence and ship
wreck in these days of cheap, safe a1d
swift transportation do not count. The
new obstacle is a common sense one. IL
is ill-health on one side or the other, and
sometimes on both.
Men nowadays hesitate to marry a wom-
an, no matter how beautiful, no matter how
attractive, or interesting, or witty. if she is
a sufferer from ill-health. All men worth
having desire happy, healthy children.
Any woman who will may fit herself for
the duties of wifehood and the exalted func
ton of motherhood. DIR. Pierces Favorite
Prescription banishes all hindrance in the
nature of local ill-health. 1t gives health,
power and capacity to the delicate and i'm
portant organs concerned in wifehood and
maternity. 1t corrects all displacements,
allays Inflammation, heals liberation, stops
exhausting drains and soothes pain. II
prepares for natural, healthy motherhood.
II makes maternity easy and safe and al
most painless. 1t insures a newcomer
constitutionally strong and able to with
stand the usual ills of babyhood. 1t is the
greatest of nerve tonics and restoratives.
Medicine dealers sell it and an honest
dealer will not urge a substitute upon you.
After suffering untold tortures." writes Mrs.
T. Ferguson. of Box az Douglas station Selkirk
Co Manitoba II thank God found relief and
cure in DR. Pierces Favorite Prescription"
The profit side of life is health. The bal
ance is written in the rich, red, pure blood of
health. DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure

Lieut.. Claude f. Fitch, who entered

after made second lieutenant, has
been promoted to the position of navi-

1t is said that England has expend-

the eight largest wars in which she has

the last 20 years have been C $4,000, 900.

Eager for shafter Relics.

The birthplace and boyhood home OF
Gen. Shafter, the hero of Santiago, on
the outskirts of Niles, Mich, is being
rapidly demolished by souvenir-seek-
ers. Hundreds of people visit the build
ing daily, and fabulous prices are be-
ing paid to the owner, A. II. Carr, for
shingles and splinters from the build.

Subsidized Corporations.


roads alone, and the fact that many
other railroad charters have been issued
with accompanying generous subsidies
in addition to the government gifts Law
ishly bestowed for various other pur-
poses leaves it not matter of surprise
that in addition TO issuing bonds 10 the
amount of nearly $50, 900, 900 for the
payment Of railroad subsidies, as was
done in 1890, Mexico has been compel
led to adopt and maintain a system Of
taxation probably the most excessive OF
any nation in existence when compared
with valuations involved and the amount
of business transacted. Relative to the
bonds above mentioned, it should also
be said that they were sold at a dis
count of liz per cent, bearing per
cent interest, and were guaranteed by
IL per cent of the customs receipts. In
addition to the subsidies granted the
corporate and individual interests so ia
vored have their federal taxes remitted
for the term of years covered by their
concessions
There is no other country ON the globe
in which corporations are so favored
and monopolies so dominant as in Mex
leo. In view of these facts the pretense
that the free coinage of silver is a sys-
TEN necessarily favorable to the inter-
ests of the common people as against cor
porations and monopoly is surely an in
diligence in extravagant and cruel irony.
