The Spirit of Winter.

The Spirit of Winter is with us, making
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine and
glistening SHOWS, and sometimes by driv-
ing winds and binding storms. To many
people it seems to take delight in making
bad things worse, for rheumatism twists
harder, twinges sharper, catarrh becomes
more annoying and the many symptoms
of scrofula are developed and aggravated.
There is not much poetry in this, but
there is truth, and it is wonder that
more people don't get rid of these all
ments. The medicine that cures them
Hoods Sarsaparilla-is easily obtained
and there is abundant proof that its cures
are radical and permanent.

TARIFF

One proposition advocated has been
the reduction of the tariff as means
Of reaching the evils OF the trusts
which fall within the category l have
described. Not merely would this be
wholly ineffective, but the diversion
OF our efforts in such a direction
would mean the abandonment Of all
intelligent attempt to do away with
these evils. Many Of the largest cor
poratioOs, many Of those which
should certainly be included 10 any
proper scheme OF regulation, would
not be affected 10 the slightest degree
Nv change in the tariff save as such
change interfered with the general
prosperity Of the country. The only
relation OF tie tariff to big corpora
tions as a whole is that the tariff
makes manufactures profitable, and
the tariff remedy proposed would be

Improbable To remove the tariff as
"a punitive measure directed against
trusts would inevitably result in ruin
to the weaker competitors who are
struggling against them. Our aim
should be not by unwise t'rifI changes
to give foreign products the advan-
tage over domestic products, but by
proper regulation TO give domestic
competition a fair chance; aud this
cad cannot be reached by any tSriiI

today he will have a reproduction

A Prominent Citizen aud a Good Man
Gone.

Capt. B. G. Pierson died at his
home on Sumter Street at O'Clock
Saturday night after an illness of
several weeks. From the first day

sufferings, which were great, were
borne with fortitude and calm resie
