bines that are sold ut a high price in
this country and a lower price in for
eign countries shall no longer be pro-
tected. The present duties on trust
productions range from 30 to 100 per
cent. thus allowing the trusts to add
that much Il the price they charge here
for their products. If this tarif was
taken of, the trusts would have to re-
duce the price Of their products to
what foreign competitors could export

the freight, and the profits that those
who handle the goods would charge.
Take barbed wire. which sells in
Pittsburg for $500 per 100 pounds, Is

pounds. a difference of 40 per cent.

amounts to. The price OF harbed wire

Fully half of the indisposed. weakly

nerve troubles and unhealthy blood. They
seem TO forget one important fact, that
the nerves regulate the blood supply
through the body" 1t is now an accep-
ted truth that upon the action Of the
nerves depends health and happiness.
Diseased and fiabby nerves bring on in
somnia, dyspepsia. headache. prostration.
irritability and lassitude; these in due
course cause more serious ills. Paine's
Celery Compound is the only medicine
that can bestow full and lasting meas
IRE of health to men and women who suf-

wonderful agent feeds, nourishes and
strengthens all the nerve centres. purifies
and enriches the blood. tones the stomach
