It is to be hoped that we shall hear no more about the duty of the secretary of the treasury to maintain the $100,000,000 gold reserve fund for the redemption of legal tender notes, of which ao many people haye been in the habit of speaking as “ established by law.” “created by law,” “a statutory requirement,” and the like. Researches made by Secretary Carlisle, in obed ience to a Senate resolution of inquiry, have resulted in these con elusions, which he lias communi cated to the Senate : “The Senate is respectfully informed that at no time since the establishment of the so called gold reserve has the sum of $100,000,000. or any other sum been segregated or set apart from the general cash in the treasury for the redemption • f tite legal tender notes of the United States, or for the redemption of any other form of paper money for which the United States is liable. There ia no provision of law requiring a separate fund or separate account to tie kept, and all moneys received int i the treasury, from whatever source, are deposited in tiie general cash.” And the secretary goes on to explain, that such a fund was, indeed, created by the secretary of the treasury, in the exercise of ids own discretion, in 1877 and 1878, and that it is once, but only once, mentioned in the laws of the United States. This once is in the national i bank act of 1882. Section 12 of that act speaks of the fund as ex- j isting, and provides, that when it] falls below $100,000,000, no gold | shall be taken by the treasury on deposit and certificates issued there for. This is all that is said Upon the subject there or anywhere else I in the acts of congress. I’tizzliiig to \Vlie«*lin«*n. Take a bicycle, balance it witli one hand, having one pedal at its highest point, the other at its low est. To the lower one tie a string and pull it toward the rear of the machine. Which way will the bicycle go? It will go backward. Most people think it will go for ward, because the string tends to move the pedals in the direction they moye when the machine is going forward. Catarrh in th* Head. Is due to impure blood and cannot be cured with local applications. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has cured hundreds of eases of catarrh because it purities the blood and in this way removes the cause of the disease. It also builds up the system and prevents attacks of pneumonia, diphtheria, and typhoid fever. Hood's Bills become the favorite cathartic with everyone who tries them. 25 cents.

Rise and list to the lark.’’ The boy didn’t say anything. Then his ma calls: “William, it is time to get up. Your breakfast is growing cold.” The boy kept right on not saying anything. Then his pa put his head in the stairway, and says he, “Bill!” “Coming, sir!” says the boy. 1 know a boy that hasn’t got any parents. He goes in swimming whenever he pleases. But I am going to stick to my parents. However, I don't tell them so, ’cause they might get it into their heads that I couldn’t get along without them. Says this hoy to me: “Parents ate a nuisance; they aren’t what they’re cracked up to he.” Says I to him : “Just the same I find them handy to have. Parents l'»ve their failings, of course, like all of us, but on the whole I approve of them.” Once a man said to me: “bobby, do you love your parents’” ‘'Well,'’ says I, “I'm not a quarreling wi h ’em.” Once a boy at a boarding achool went to calling his pa the governor and got his allowance cut down one half. His pa said he ought to have waited till he was going to college. Much more might be written about parents, allowing their habits and so forth, hut I will leave the task to abler pens.

Tired, Weak, Nervous Hood’s Sarsaparilla Restores Strength and Bodily Vigor. The cause of that tired, weak, nervous condition, in which so many people And themselves, is the failure of the blood to properly nourish the nerves and tissues. Feed the nerves upon pure blood, and they will be steady and strong. Kead this: “It is with pleasure that I recommend Hood’s Sarsaparilla as an ex- ^ cellent nerve tonic Mrs. c. H.
