StomachLiver Cure The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. , It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar.1' It is Safe and Harmless an the Purest Milk. .This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this conntry by the Great South American Medicine Company, and yet its
.great value as a curative agent has !. , C .1. A V . 1
wuvn ci .txjulu America, wuo reiy almost wiitmy upon lis great uieuiiunsi powers to cure every form of disease by which they are overtaken. Tim new and valuablo South American medicine possesses powers and qualities hitherto unknown to the medical profession. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the euro ot Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, and diseases of the general Nervous System. It also cures all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by the Great Nervine Tonic qualities which it possesses and by its great curative powers upon the digestive organs, thestomach,theliverandthebowels. Noremedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and Etrengthener of the life forces of the human body and as a great renewer of a broken down constitution. It Is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the Lungs than any ten consumption rem edies ever used on this continent It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic almost constantly for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great etrengthener and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozen bottles of the remedy each year.

NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able
to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir, are
dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like
starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied, and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on. it is the first to suffer for want of nerfect nutrition.
I Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment I necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes ; upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This recent production of the South American Continent has been
found, by analysis, to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its magic power to core all forms of nervous
osangement8.

I tried every medicine I could hear of but nothing done me any appreciable good until I was ad' vised to try your Great South American Nervine Tonic and Stomach and Liver Cure, and since nstngaeveial bottles ol it I must say that I am surprised at its wonderful powers to cure the Stomach and general nervous system. If everyone knew the value of this remedy as I do, you would not be able to supply the demand. 1. A. Hardeb, Ex-Treas. Montgomery Co.

tfelvmmRr.T.v 1m U.. m nana Hy daughter, twelve years old, had bejn afflicted for several months with Chorea or St. Vituas Dance. She wad reduced to a skeleton, could not walk, could not talk, could not swallow anything but milk. I had to handle her like an infant Doctor and neighbors gave her Up. I commenced giving her the South American Nervine Tonic: the effects were very surprising. In three days she was rid of the nervousness, and rapidly improved. Four bottles cured her completely. I think the South American Nervine the grandest remedy ever discovered, and would recommend it to everyone. Una. W. a. EitamNGiiK. Meodaomnnhrmmhi fS. SnhBDribaii and nm-n n1uifn-.-.1,I.VM. 9. -1887.

But now I can lie down and sleep all night as sweetly as a baby, and I feel like a found man.

OBJEUT OF THE MONETARY CONFERENCE. To DlHOiiHs M'ttyB and Meant of Sepurliift- an KnlarfftMl lUe of Silver Movement Initiated by the I'ntted Statert-AU Lending Nations Co-operating. Silve - the Issue. The International Monetary Conferonce, which has begun nt Brussels, Belgium, wilt doubtless be the most im-!.-ortaut ntlieriug of recent years so far an Its effects, upon 1 lid fiscal policies of llicworU aie decerned. It will be of especial consequence to tho interests of the United tttatcs, for this is the chief silver-producing nation of the world, and upon tin results of lhe conference will depend in a Jnrjre meusure th.; mn.terial prosperity of several States of tho Union, whose chief wealth consists in their mines of argentiferous ores. The conference was first propose! by j the Oonares?s of the United States, nn l alter i onsu tntion with representatives of tbe leading foreign powers its details were formulated and delegates appointed. These consist, on tho part of the United States, of ex-Comptroller of Uio Currency Henry W. Cannon, Senator William H, Allison, if Iowa; Senator John P. Jones, of Nevada; President E. Benjamin Andrews, of Hrown University; Congressman McCrenry of Kentucky; and Kdward O. J.eeeli, Director of the Mini. These delegates represent fairly nil the views of Americans on the subject of silver coinage. Senator Allison takes a middle view on the question. Senator Jones is confessodlya radical free-coin-ago man. Dr. Andrews hao written mi interesting volti no cn "The Gold Dollar," and his views are nlinost radically against free silver. Director Leech believes that (hero is oo much silver in the market, and Congressman McCreaty is inclined to sido with Senator Jones, although by no moans ns radical on the subject. Uuiie4 of Ilie Memherri. Tho duties of the delegates hnvo bef-n clearly defined by tho act authorizing tho conterence una a so by tho becretary of the Treasury. ' They have authority simnly t i discuss and propos , ' r f jt,'. AMERICA AT THE COSFEHENCE but no pow m' to tako ilnal action. The dellbera'iors will In all likelihood be conducted ia tho English longuage. The American delegates will argue for bimetallism, mid it is likely Hint our most bitter opponents will be the Englieh ! dnlunotWi .i-tif, lt.tlinvn ilint- wa n v 1 making a grlev us orror in purchasing 4,i(i0,iiiit) ounves of silver a month. They think that to stop coining this great mass of silver dollars monthly won d drive moro bullion abroad, and in that way favorably affect tho silver market. No proposition looking to an indorsement of fre coinage of silver will probably be submitted by auy of the American representatives. Itnpoi tance til the Conference. The conference will have tho co-op:-rati .n of all the leading nations. It is likely to le far iniuo important tht.n any monetary conference of recent years. Tho conference held at Paris during the Exposition of 188S was not vosl:?d with any authority and was productive of no results. A conference was held nt Washington last year of the Pan-American eountr'o?, but it related merely to I'evislng methods for securing a common coin, and its work wa fruitless, because the scheme was impractical lo. The present conference will represent every shade of national views. There will lie England and Germany, which are upon a gold basis, and AusTla, which is passing through the conditions neressary to bring it to th; samo basis silver having been demon- j etized. Fr.iiico and this other countries j of the Latin Union, which maintain u parity between the two metals whilo limiting the silver coinage, will be i'ul y representee! . India, which Is suiTerit g financial convulsions because of its silver basis, v-;ll have its ott'n representatives, a'.though Great Britain will diotato its policy. Mexico, which is on a purely silver basis and has a largo direot trad.; with Europe, may help :.n solving the problem. Many suggestion huvo been maclo for the guidance of tho conference. Tho one which has been most discussed among linancial authorities is the proposition of Dr. Soytbooer, tho eminent Austrian publicist. Ho has suggested nn agreement by which tho countries taking part In tho conference should limit silver coinage to certa.n small coins . none to exceed in value the twenty frano piece. It is stated that while silver i ould not thus be placed on a puriiy with gold, it m'ghl bo maintained at a ratio of about twenty to one. Tfco .ictiial commercial rntio is i now about twen y-four to one. Tito ! coinage ra.lo iu the United States is sixteen to one, in the Latin L'nion un:d ; most Utiroj can countries fifteen and a : hall (o one, ami in India fifteen to on?. I Dr. Soytl.ooer'8 plan is declared by those who have studied It to be (oo in- ; trlcate to meet-with general adoption.. The whole aim of tho Brussels con. cr- ; ence will be directed toward practical ; measures, without seeking to revol t- ; tloi izo the existing relations of gold mid t-llvor, wlvch could only be done by 1 universal n uionotlnat'ou.

Work of the Agricultural ifopartmcnt Kevit'iveil hy ll.uak. Tl:e report of the Secretti y of Agri eultui e has been Hiibmittad to the President. The report begins with o com. ) .ariKOU Ol tuc export tra.lc of tlici lust fiscal year witli fhi.t of former years, and emI hi.sizes th fact that of ti;c mere than $i,ono,.;mi,i) , rom-csent ng the exports of our do iii.'stie products for tho last year, nearly 8 ) percent, oonsistcil of agricultural products, this not only makRtxHKTAitv i!t'K. i ng the United States tlie creditor of the world lor a sum exceeding O.i.no'.0 10 the excess of aur exports over imports but relieving our home markets from n surplus product which would otherwise have reduced prices to a point below the ot of production. For a large Br.aro in bringing about the conditions which hav j made these (.ratifying results possible tho Secretary claims credit for his department. In regard to imports he finds encouragement for (he farmers in thefa;t that in spite of an nggregnte Increase there is a reduction in the proportion of Imports consisting of products which compete with our American agriculture, for, whilo in the fiscal year ended in 1883 54 per cent, of the imports wero com peting, only ii per cent, oj our iaiports for the Inst llscal year did eo compote, Ho ncvorthele.is regards imports competina with tho products of our own so:l as still fur too groat. He instances $4(1,000, rtOll worth of animal products, $67,000,000 worth or libers, $i7,0( O.Otiu worth of hides, $110,(1(10,000 worth of fruits and wines, ns articles of this kinds, and eites the imports of raw silk, amounting to Sio. 000,010 yearly, as an instance of products imported which could with proper encouragement be produced in our own country. He declares these figures to indicate tho main ultimate object; of tho work of the department, which he delinos, iri brief, as "the closest study of all markets abroad which may be reached by our own agricultural products, accompanied by persistent and Intelligent, efforts to extend them and the substitution in our markets of homo-grown lor foreign-grown products." LABOR LOSES ITS FIGHT. The Great Strike ut Carnegie's Homestead Mill Declared Of". The great strike at Carnegie's Homestead slecl works has been declared off. After a five months' struggle, which for bitterness has probably never been equaled in this country, tho rrmyof strikers llnaliy decided to give up the flglit. This ue.ion was taken at fi meeting of the lodges of tho Amalgitmoted Association nt Homestead, tin vote standing 101 in favor of declaring tho strike off and 91 against it. Among those present at the meeting wove Viie President Carney, Secretary Ivllgallon, Treasurer Madden, and David l.yneh of 'he Advisory l'oard. The officials addressed (he members,, and in plain words told them the strike was lost, itnd advised them t-i tako steps to better their condition. The remarks met with considerable opposition, but: when (he vote was taken it showed a majority of ton in favor of declaring the strike off. Those who were bi favor of jailing the strike off wero jubilant, while those who wero agains; it were badly put out. '.'he Homestead strike has proved one of the most disastrous in the history of the country. It or'ginated from a redu.'Uon iu wages in the department where members of the Amalgamated As-:ociation of lion and Steel Workers were cmpl .yed. The hitch was on what is i;nownas the slidirg scn!o. It is a scide which regulates the men's wages by (he market price 'of steel billets. Nearly every mill in this vicinity fdgnod the scale, Including other mills of tho Carnegie Company. At the icfusnl of tho (Inn to sign tho scale for iho Ifo r.usti ail mill, a lockout was dee I are I by the Amalgamated Association, and they wero joined by the mechanics aud laborers, who struck outo! sympathy only, their wages not being reduce '.

Herman Siegler, a cabinet maker, living at No. 723 North Paulina street, Chicago, got up early the other morning, went to his brother's house and borrowed a shotgun on the pretext that he wanted to go hunting, returned home, shot and killed his father and mother-in-law, seriously wounded hie wife, and filled a policeman's tiose full of buck-e-hot, he in return getting a bullet in hi abdomen from another otHcer's revolver.

Thousands of people attracted by the fusillade swarmed .iround the house, and when. Officer Dan McCarthy finally grappled with aud overcame the murderer, they fairly howled for his blood. Some one started the cry, "lynch him!" and it was taken up by excited men and women. Although four patrol-wagon loads of officers were on the ground., they had a herculer a task to prevent the infuriated people from making shoit shrift of the then c wering murderer. Men fought with each other to get at Siegler, each howling "Kill him! "Lynch the brute!"

She said to mo- 'You have got to die, and I will not go where you want to send me,' and I shot her in the hall. The old man came down-stairs and I was eonfused, and I fired at the old man and shot him. I then came out on the steps and the patrol wagons came. Then I was durafounded.
