Putting food into adiseased stomach

Putting food into adiseased stomach
is like putting money into & pocket
with holes. The money is lost. All
its value goes for nothing. When the
stomach is diseased, with the allied
organs of digestion and nutrition, the
food which is put into it is largely lost.
The nurriment is not extracted from
it. The body is weak and the blood
impoverished.
The pocket can be mended. The
stomach can be cured. That sterling
medicine for the stomach and blood,
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
acts with peculiar promptness and
power on the organs of digestion and
nutrition. 1t is a positive cure for al
most all disorders of these organs, and
cures also such diseases of the heart,
blood, liver and other organs, as have
their cause In weak or diseased con.
dition of the stomach.

Is Getting in Its Deadly Work
On the Poor.
4 REMEDY Is PROPOSED.
The New York Journal Arraiuns
the Standard Oil Trust and Ap-
peaIs to the People to Elect
Honest Men to Office.

The Standard Oil Company, owning
and controlling most of the terrestria
Gil laboratories. increased the price Of
oil some time ago one cent upon every
gallon drawn from the earth.
In January the price was II cents
Many stores are now charging IL cents
and there are indications that before
the end of the year a further increase
will be tackled on.
At present, however, the increase
over the price of two years ago is about
3 cents per gallon-the price of an old
style postage stamp.
That does not sound very formida-
BILE. The poor customer will continue
to pay it without question. But let
us see what it means to the Standard
Oil Company.
+ The total yearly output Of the com.
pany is, approximately. 1,7OO, 1000, 900
gallons, of which S5O,0O0,O 900 gallons
are sold in the United States. In rails
ing the price of oil from to 10 cents,
therefore, Mr.. John D. Rockefeller
taxed the poor consumers of this coun-
try $8, 500, ,0O0 year. A raise to II
cents means 8,500,OOO more, and a
further raise to II cents means a total
of $25, 500, 600 a year on Mr.. Rockefel-
ler's Oil sales in this country alone.
Double this for his foreign sales and
you have the neat sum of $51, 900, 900 a
yeal poured by the poor people of the
world into Mr.. RockefeIler's Golfers.
The trust has just declared quarter
ly dividend of 20 per cent-$2O, 900 900
profits for three months; $50, 900, 900 a
year.

army of workingmen-the ground
moles. who dig coal. the hard-handed
toilers IN jumpers and dungarees, men
Of myriad lines of lab or-dig on,
sweat on, starve on. not realizing that
by paying a few cents additional for
their meagre nightly light they are
putting into the hands of their great
est enemy two-edged sword, to be
turned against them at every oppor-
tunity. But what can the people
do?
They can do this. They can vote
for men pledged to fight oppressive
trusts. They may elect their legisla-
tors, congressman and governors, men
of the people who will stand by the
people and for the people.
They can take the election of Sena-
tors in their own hands. and weed out
the venal servants Of trusts.
Above all they can elect to the Presi-
dency man without Wall Street af-
filiations-one who will gather about
him cabinet of honest men.
Let all workingmen in the United
States lay these things to their hearts,
ponder upon them, and when the time
comes, set upon them.-New York

THE DIRECT RESULT OF WAR.
Which Can Be Charged to President Nc
KlnIey's Administration.

On No. train Tuesday night were
three American seamen in about as
bad a plight as it is possible for human
beings to be. The three men were
raving maniacs, and were being TAX
en- to Washington, D. g., to be cared
for by the government.
They were from the Philippines and
left Manila in charge of their guards
on Dec. 29th last. Some eight or ten
men were with them and it was SIM
ply horrible job to take care of them.
One of them raved all the time he was
awake and only slept when opiates
were administered, while the other
two we're less violent yet had to be
kept under the eye Of the guards all
the time.
All of them were handcuffed and tied
in their seats. The rawlings OF the
most hopeless of the unfortunatss
were pitiabls indeed. During the trip
over he had gone without sleep for
sixty hours at time. He bit like
dog at every one who came near him.
He would turn his head about and
bite the collar of his coat until it was
necessary for his guards to whip him
and make him let 60.
The cause of the insanity is of course
not known definitely. A guard told
us that one of them had drunk wood
alcohol, while in the Philippines and
had ever since been IN the pitiable con-
dition in which we saw him, while the
climatic and other conditions were
to be the cause of the mental
collapse of the others.
A sergeant of marines told US, on the
train, that he had been with these
three men for i've months and had
come from Manila with them and that
during ten years Of service in the
marine corps he had made five long
trips with insane men, but this had
been the most horrible experience he
had ever had.
Another unfortunate who had been |
shot through the head, destroying the
optical nerve and therefore totally
blind, was in charge of the party, but
was comfortably slowed away in a
sleeper.
This is indeed an object lesson on
The horrors of a war Of conquest,
which would arouse our people in op.
position to its further prosecution,
could these unfortunates (and hundreds
Of others similarly affected) be parad-
ID before the public gaze. .sTbe foolish |
ness of men from this climate enlisting
IN war in the tropics, is most fully
by this pitiable spec
acle.-Clifton Forge Review.
