SILVER NOT ISSUE. SAYS BRYAN
Nebraskan Declares Wall Street Is
Responsible for Trouble.

Baltimore. Nov. 26.-William Jen-
nings Bryan lectured at Ford's opera
house this afternoon under the au-
spices of the Y M. C. A.. prior to
which he was given a luncheon by
friends and admirers. Just before
the latter event, in response to a
question as to whether coinage of
silver as advocated by him would
have prevented the money stringency
from which the country has been
suffering, he said:
"The coinage of silver has no bear
ing upon the monetary conditions
which exist today. The restoration
of bimetalism would have given Us
more money than We have at present,
but the unprecedented discovery of
gold has given us such an increase in
the volume of money that prices have
risen.
The present stringency is not due
to the scarcity of money. but to the
scare that has spread among de-
positors. This started in New York
and had its origin in the gambling
transactions OF Wall street. The Re
publican party has so linked the
banking system to Wall street that
the whole nation has suffered for
the sins of a few spectators"

NATURE SPARES
The strlcIlen Bose From GrIef.

What a fortunate provision of ma
ture it is, that depriyes the rose OF
mental suffering; for how poignant
would be its grief to discover, in the
height of its blooming glory. that a
canker fed at its heart, and that its
beauty and fragrance were doomed
forever. Nature always spares the
suffering; she is q veritable store
house of pleasing rewards. for those
who seek her aid. In the years gone
by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thous-
ands of young women, but thanks
to the investigations of scientists
the true cause of hair destruction is
now known to be a germ or parasite
that burrow into the hair follicles.
Newbro's Herpicide absolutely de-
stroys this germ, thus permitting the
hair to grow as nature intended.
