THE LILY REMEDIES not only

THE LILY REMEDIES not only
represent years of careful study
and scientific research on the partl
of DR.. Ramsey, but they representa-
all that is best in modern medical
knowledge. They are not made
from magical cure-all root dis
covered in the forest fastness by
some fakir from the coral
sands of India nor are they
dug from miasmatic southern
swamps by some hoodoo doctor OF
chanted over by an Indian medi,
cine man. They are vegetable
preparation, made from those in
gredients that science has discov-
cred and hctual practice proven
are the best possible remedy for the
diseases for which they were In
tended.

lated billion dollars, impossible so long as short sale or repurchase and resale, is allowed. When short sales, and repurchases and resales, are made impossible, stock speculation will be dead. When stock speculation is dead, the people can no longer be robbed by the System In leaving you, the exchange, and stock gambling forever, as I shall when I leave this platform, will say from the depth of 6 heart that has been broken, from the profoundity of a soul that has been withered by the Systems poison. with . full sense of my responsibility to my fellow-man and to my God, that I ad- wise every one of you to do what I have done and to do it quickly, before the doing of it by others shall have made it impossible, before the doing of it by others shall have blown up the whole stock-gambling structure. In accepting my advice you can quiet your conscience, those of you who have any. with this argument: If start, am sure of success. If I sue ceed, no one will be the wiser. The millionsI secure will take from men who took them from others. and who would take mine. The more I and others take, the sooner will come the day when the stock-gambling struc- ture win fall
 The day on which the stock-gam- bling structure falls is the day for which all honest men and women should pray.
 Bob Brownley paused and let his eyes sweep his dumfounded audience. There was not a murmur. The crowd was speeches..
 Again his eyes swept the room. Then he slowly raised his right hand with list cienched, as though about to deal blow.

 Next, let us consider further wheth- CT it is possible for our exchange to prevent my device from being worked, now that it is known to all. Suppose the governing committee was informed in advance that the attempt to work the trick was to be made. If, at any session, after gong-strike, the govern ing committee, or any exchange au- thority. could for any reason compel a member to cease operating. even for the purpose of showing that his trans actions were legitimate. the entire structure of stock-gambling would fall. Think it through: Suppose a man like Barry Conant or myself. or any active commission broker, begins the execu- ton of large order for client, one. say. who has advance information of a receivership. a fire at a mine. the death of president, a declaration of war. or any of the hundred and one items of information that must be acted upon instantly. where a delay of c minute would ruin the broker. or his house. or it's clients. If the governing committee could thus call the broker to account. the professional bear or the schemer, who desired to prevent him from selling. would have but to pass the word to the president of the exchange that the broker in question was about to work Brovnley's discov. cry and he could be taken from the crowd and before he returned his place could be taken by others and he could be ruined.

First, the Tn God We Trust schooner who is of the System type. but who is outside the magic circle. A man of this class will reason: know scores of men, who stand high on the Street and in the social world. who have tens of millions that they have filched by System tricks, if not by legal crimes. If I perform this trick of Brownley's, the trick of selling short until panic is produced, l shall make millions and none will be the wiser. For all l know. many of the multi-millionaires whom I have seen produce panics and who were applaud ed by the Street and the press for their ability and daring. and whose standing. business and social, is now the highest. were only doing this same thing. and having been successful. they have never been detected or suspected. But even suppose I fail. which can only be through some extraordinary accident happening while I am en- gagged in selling. I shall have com mitted DO crime. and. in fact. shall have done no one any great moral wrong. for if I fail to carry out my contract to deliver the stock I have sold in trying to produce panic, the men to whom I have sold will be no worse od for not receiving what they bought; in fact, they will stand just where they stood before I attempted to bring on a panic.
 Second. if an exchange member for any reason should find himself over board and should realize that he must publicly become bankrupt and lose all. he surely would be a fool not to at- tempt to produce a pani0 when its production would enable himNto recoup his losses and prevent his fafio<e. and when if by accident he should nsfl in his attempt to produce a panic. the penalty would simply be his baAk- rupfcy, which would have taken placA n any event

Doctor Sets Cats Shoulder Blade.

Bellevue hospital, New York, recent ly adopted patient and gave 1t life berth as chief mouse catcher of the in- stitution. The reception room was crowded when a stranger entered with a rather aristocratic cat under his arm. Dr. Leroy Smith paused in his work to inquire. He learned that the stranger had picked the cat up on the street. where he had noticed 1t In ap- parent agony. Dr. Smith found a broken shoulder blade constituted the trouble. He set 1t and the cat was placed on blanket in an outdoor tent. The cat purred its gratitude. Many of the hospital doctors dropped in to take look at Dr. Smiths patient and each voted for adoption.

NOW THE PORCELAIN HOUSE.
New Invention May Make It a Build
 Ing Materiai-Advantases.

The use of porcelain has long been known in China, but is now likely to make It's appearance in western coun- tries. and we are assured that the DOT celain house is one of the possibilities of the near future. It Is made prac- ticable by the invention of a method of making large sheets of porcelain about an inch thick, which has the strength without the bulk of an ordinary brick built wall. Among its advantages is rapidity in building. With sheets of porcelain a good sized house can be constructed in a few days. It is damp proof. too. and is. of course, kept clean at the cost of very little labor. Col ored glazes take the place of wall paper. and pictures can be painted in- stead of being hung on the walls. Again. it is easily portable. A porce- lain house can be faEen down when

astounding advice to connect with his listeners now keenly sensitive nerve centers; then deep and clear rang out, Barry Conant." The wiry form of Bob's old antagonist leaped to the ros- trum.
 T authorize you to buy any part of 10,000, 900 shares of the leading stocks at any price up to 50 points above the present market. There is my check book signed n blank, and I authorize you to use it up to a billion dollars. and 1 agree to have in bank tomorrow sufficient funds to meet any checks you draw. You have failed today for seven millions. and, therefore, cannot trade, but I herewith announce that will pay all the indebtedness of Barry Conant and his house. Therefore he is now in good standing" Bob had kept his eye on the great clock; as the last word passed his lips. the presi- dents gavel descended.
 With a mighty rush the gamblers lcaped for the different poles. Barry Conant with lightning rapidity gave his orders to 20 of his assistants, who, when Bob Brownley called for Conant had gathered around their chief. In less than a minute the dollar-battle of the age was on. battle such as no man had ever seen before. It required no supernatural wisdom for any man on the floor to see that Bob Brovnlev's s seed had fallen In superheated soil, that his until now secret hellite was about to be tested. It needed no ex. pert in the mystic art of deciphering the wall hieroglyphies of Old Hag Fate to see that the hands on the clock of the System" were approaching IA. Il needed no ear trained to hear human heart and soul beats to detect the ap preaching sound Of ourushing doom tc the stock-gambling structure The deafening roar of the brokers that had broken the stiffness following Robert iBrovnley's fateful speech had avak ened echoes that threatened to shake down the exchange walls The surg ing mob on the outside vas roaring like a million hungry Hons in an Ar bestan run at slaughter time.
