Silver and Trade to Be Discussed

The question Of silver will not down. Even some Of tbs r. |
fnanciers, who a dozen years ago shuddered at the very meptOr !
the word, are now considering how to give the metal a more extends
use, greater stability in price, and an increased value, in order Tia,
the markets Of the silver using countries may be kept opan !. |
American products. The most important agency that has taken mn
this matter is the American Mining Congress, which will NEE. |
Goldfeld in September, and which has scheduled for one Of IL
features a discussion of the relation Of the value of silver TO n,
adjustment Of trade relations with silver using countries. and bo,
to give to silver as money such extended use and stability of prr
as will greatly reduce, if not entirely eliminate. the high margin d
exchange Oriental silver must now pay for our gold.
These phases of the silver question have no relation to ts
"free silver doctrines so prominent in National politics in the nine.
ties. At that time American bankers and Eastern business men
thoroughly scared and so averse to the use of silver in measurino
values, sought to relegate all discussion of the silver question, but
in the light of more recent years, when our trade is in peril Of BEING
swept from the Orient, when manufacturing industries are bepc
transported bodily to Asatic countries where cheap silver purchases
cheap labor, there arises an imminent necessity for such adjustment
of trade relations as will enable the merchants supplying more than
half the human race to buy American products on a gold basis.
From time immemoral the money of twothirds of the worlds
people was silver. Formerly these peoples were not considered as
important factors in the business of manufacturing countries, but
now the merchant sees in them his most fertile fields for trade. Yet
these markets re closing because of the low fuctuating price Of
silver, with its consequent p~rohibtive rate of exchange with gold.
The American Mining Congress announces that it is Launching
this movement with the feeling that America should be on the alert
in the fight for commercial supremacy which is now centerng
around the Pacific, and it is intended that the discussion Of this
question at its meeting will develop a memorial to be presented to
the National Congress setting forth the necessity Of such adjust
ment as will remove this embargo upon American industries.
The United States is at the same time one of the principal
silver producing countries, and China and India most largely import
their bullion from us. An extended use of silver, which would be
followed by an enhanced price, would enable America to assume a
commanding position with reference to Oriental trade.
No more important question could be taken up for considers
ton by the American Mining Congress, and the discussion of the
subject by such men as Sir Moreton Frewen, the eminent English
economist; John Hays Hammond, James J. Hill and others ought
to result in its being brought forcibly to the attention of the
National Congress.-Salt Lake Herald.

TAKE OFF THE FAT
WHERE IT SHOWS

Most women suffer much humilia-
tion because OF great quantities of
fat, so located that. no matter how
they dress, everybody sees that they
are abnormal. This Is the day of
the slender figure, and fat women are
simply not tolerated either in busi-
ness or social affairs. Women may
not know IL, but men when they see
q fat woman pass them on the street
make 8ll manner OF sympathetic re-
MARKS about her They do not mean
to be unkind or to seem unmanly, but
IL is natural for a man to dislike fat
on a woman. Where fat shows the
most there is where IL must be re-
moved, and as quickly as possible.
The hot weather dresses seem to be
made for the fat woman's misery and
the slender woman's delight They
expose all the charms of woman and
her ugliness as well. Exercise and
diet will not romove fat. This has
been proved. The famous Marmola
prescription which has met with such
phenomenal success and has so many
OF our society women as its sponsors,
Is now being sold In tablet form to
meet the demand of the public for
this style of treatment. These little
tablets go into your system just like
food. They stop the stomach and di-
gestive apparatus from producing fat
and reduce the fat upon the body at
the rate of from - to 10 ounces a
day. They are harmless and can be
carried In your purse and taken even
after you have INDUCED in hearty
meal away from home. They are sold
at all drug stores at 75 cents case,
