Address INDIANAPOLIS SENTINEL COMPANY, IndianpoUs, Ind. Blaixk says the tariff is the real issue. "Wrong! The real issue is: "Shall we haye na abandoned liar for rresidentr Sixty THorsaxD Western Virginia Democrats greeted Hendricks last Saturday. The Iilalne boom was lost in the Democratic cyclone. . The Ohio Republicans hare begun their election rascality by importing hundreds of colored men, ostensibly to wort in the coal mines of that State. 'Do yon really believe Blaine would steal ?" was asked of an Independent Republican, 'Steal sir!" was the blurted response; "Steal? "Why I would not trust him in the middle of the desert of Sahara with the anchor of the Great Eastern'." - Tzopti may say what they please, but (; rover Cleveland ia going to be onr next 3iesident," says Dan Manning, and every man who eawDan in the Chicago Democratic Convention hall will believe that he knows what he is talking about. Sieaki5g of the marriage Mr. Dlaine pretends to have had in Kentucky, the Watertown (N. Y.) Gazette says: "It was the iind of marriage knaves resort to when they wish to inveigle confiding virtue to infamy. II he adopted knavish methods and forms Jie should not complain if he chance to be called a knave." "The History of Fraud and Political Jobbery; or Leaves from the Diary of an exSpeaker," is the title of a book soon to be issued from the press, and is tobe uniform rith "Twenty Years in Congress." It is safe to say, however, Mr. James G. Blaine will not carry a copy of the first named in Ixis canvassing bag. Ms. Li.Ai.N K told the Ohioana that the tariff Bhould be the issue in the campaign. No doubt he would like to divert discussion from the Mulligan letters and the libel suit. Said an ex-convict who had served a term ior stealing sheep: "Don't talk of sheep the subject is disagreable .o me; I don't even like to talk of woolen goods." A Pzteksbvkg, Ind., correspondent asks ns for a list of the names of Republicans who have abandoned their party. This is rather a moderate request considering that the list, in New York foots up about 70,000. It Would be a difficult matter to furnish such a list at present. It would perhaps be less difficult to arrange a list of those who are left to the g. o. p. Tns Fort Wayne Journal says: "Yesterday afternoon Mr. H. O. Olds, managing proprietor of the H. G. Olds wagon, works and senior member of the extensive firm of H. G. Olds A Sons, put on a Cleveland and Hendricks white hat . and accompanied the Jeffersonlans to Toledo. Mr. Olds has heretofore been a staunch Republican, but he is convinced that the interests of the country would be better in Cleveland's hands than in Blaine's. Mr. Olds employs more men than any manufacturer in the city, and his accession to the Democratic ranks is an important one.'' Notwithstanding the warm endorsement of Senator Harrison of the anti-slavery sentiments of his grandfather, the President, it appears that in the tussle of IS 40 for the Presidency Van Buren represented the Teal anti-slavery sentiment of the people and that old General Harrison was successful because of his pro-slavery views. This is rather rough on the grandson because of his recent attacks on the Democratic party. Senator Voorhees, however, sewed up the blustering little representative of Indiana Republicanism in his Worthington speech. Blaine denied that he ever held any T'nion Pacific stock. It is proved that he lied. He denied that he ever sold any Little Rock bonds to Tom Scott. It is proved that lie lied. He denied that he had ever owned any coal or iron lands in the Hocking Valley. It is proved that he lied. He denied that there was any ground for the charges of irregularity in his marriage. It is proved that he lied. He declares that he had a Secret marriage In Kentucky. It is ' proved that he lied. Be declares that he will be elected. This, judging from his declarations on the foregoing, must also be proven a lie. 05E of the organs of Saturday undertook to impose on the Catholic vote by saying of Blaine's advertised coming to Indiana: "He proposes to remain three days in Michigan, speaking at Nile on Friday, the 17th, when it is probable he will come directly to Indiana, stopping at South Bend, where he will remain over Sunday. His sister is Mother Superior at- Notre Dame." Mr. Blaine has no sister at Notre Dame. He is only a distant kinsman of the "Mother Superior." And, by the way, it was this same kinswoman who, not a great while since, wrote a letter condemning Mr. Blaine as an apostate from the religion of his mother. A tOEEEroxDOT writing of a recent interview with Governor Gray, at his home in Union City, says: The conversation drifted into the sal'ent features of the campalcn, and the Governor saia: "I tain this Is oue of the bitterest campaigns I have ever seen since the war. Tner start some new lie rn me every day. I don't attempt to answer tflim, ior ii I did I would have nothing else to do. I got lome this moraine and found that the Kcpublic ans bad sot out affidavits showing that 1 was a jnemberof a Know-nothing Lodge orer lu Dritt bounty, Ohio, Jn 1H56. At tne time charged in the aflidavit I was located here, and poke and voted for Fremont instead of Film ore. ltic Know-Eothinz candidate for President, and the eiection records will show that I voted here. This is a sample of Uie tartics resorted to bv the Trty of lieelzebnb in iu final hours. Nothing no fraua, no lie, no act of cussedness-ds too mean und little for the Republican managers la both Ohio and Indiana to have recourse to save the Jsiling lortunes of a corrupt and degenerate roht3 si organization, and it Is glorious to have them inarch to their overthrow with the sad and mournlal music of such howllnj editors aud paid sreo-

pbanta as my distracted and cracked friend, Mr. ilaktead, of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette."

James D. Warrex, one of Blaine's hippodrome managers, aaid of Blaine only last May: "If Blaine manages by hook or crook (he can not get it in any other way) to get the Chicago nomination, his party will be put upon the defensive with a candidate of whose record they are ashamed, whose future makes the business men afraid of him, who would be consistently opposed by every truly Independent newspaper in the country." ANOTHER BIG BARBECUE. The Democracy of Northern Indiana propose to hold a monster barbecue and mass meetirig, on Thursday, October 23, at Peru, Miami County. The following stalwart Democrats are expected to be present: Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks, Hon. Joseph E. McDonald, Bon. George W. Julian, Hon. John G. Carlisle, Hon. Allen G. Thurman, Hon. James McKenzie. The meeting is expected to be greater than that at Shelby yille. SUPPRESSED. This is that portion of Senator Edmunds' recent letter which was suppressed by the New York and Chicago Tribunes and also the Indianapolis Journal, as well as other Republican organs: "I presume it is true, although I can find no copy of the letter, that in lSsO I did write to some constituent adversely to the nomination of the gentleman named (Blaine), and I believe it to be true that he was on the side of the railroads in the struggle of 1873, and it is my belief that I said so." NOT A GOOD LIE. It" turns out that Colonel Gray was not only a Know-nothing himself bat that he took his son Bayard into the order and made him Secretary of the lodge over which he presided. The above is from the Winchester Journal of September 17. Bayard Gray was born July 8, 13-35. Such ailly and lying charges Bhow how false are the statements set afloat of Colonel Grsy's connection with Knownothingism. The Republicans in their desperate warfare should next accuse Colonel Gray of betraying the Savior for thirty pieces of silver. How they do lie this season. Boys, yon must do better or Calkins, Jim Blaine or the Indianapolis Journal will get the medal. Now hump yourselves. ANOTHER DAMAGING EXPOSURE. Gustave Koble, a well-known citien of New York City, delivered an addres at Fair field, N. J., Saturday evening, during which he exhibited and read a letter written by Warren Fisher, showing that an attempt had been made by James G. Blaine to bribe him for the Mnlliean letters, for which be offered $10,000, and then tried to get both Fisher and Mulligan to go to Europe. Here is the letter as it appears in the New York papers of Sunday last, and the fac aimile is published in the World of the same date: "In April or May of 1330 Blaine sent word to have me meet him at Fifth Avenue Hotel. He then authorized me to get the letters from Mulligan, pay $10.000 if 1 could not get them for less, and then wanted Mr. M. and myself to go to Europe, remain umtl alter election, all at his ex pen8e. Mr. Mulligan declined the ofTer. He said Blaine had stolen his letters in Wash incton, and he never should have what he held at any price. Yours, etc, "Warhex Fisher. "Windsor, Vt., July 12, 1834." BLAINE'S OFFER TO SCHURZ. The Republican press, which has of late been seeking to belittle Carl Schurz, is in vited to the following: On the first day of July one of Blaine's man agers wrote a letter to Mr. Schurz (which letter Mr. Schurz still has in his possession) to the following effect: That he had just seen Mr. Blaine, who expressed his earnest and sincere regrets that ir. Schurz had declared his intention of opposing him. That Mr. Blaine attached great importance to Mr. Schurz' sat titude greater, indeed, than to that of any other person. That Mr. Blaine would gladly give Mr. Schurz any desired explanation as to his policy in case he should be elected, and hoped that this would prove satisfactory to mm. mat .Mr. benurz was earnestly re quested not to assume a decisive attitude before he bad had an interview with the writer of the letter, which would take place in a few days. This meeting never took place, for Mr. Schurz replied at once that he would enter into no negotiations of any kind what ever, but would, on the contrary, adhere to his indicated policy and oppose Blaine. "GATH," BLAINE AND PROHIBITION. Oath, editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer, and general political dictator, has now turned his attention to the German vote and the prohibition question. He has issued a manifesto at which the German voter may well be alarmed. If the German people will persist in standing up for their personal liberties and the right to eat, drink and wear what they prefer, this same Gath gives them to understand once and for all that the Re publicans intend to unite with the prohibitionists and make it truly warm for those who believe they have a right to protest against encroachments on their individual rights. The dire consequence which is to follow the refusal of the Germans to sit ) quietly by and let prohibition be fastened on the country by the Republican party, is to be that that party, when united with the prohibition party, is to kill off the liquor interests altogether and "thus take the beer question forever out of politics." In view of the fact that wherever there is prohibition it is in a Republican State, and that Blaine has been indorsed by the Prohibitionists, it is safe to say that, notwithstanding the Gath manifesto, the German voters will continue to oppose Blaine Republican-, ism and prohibition. REPDBLICAN RASCALITY IN OHIO. It is charged that the frightened Ohio radicals are beginning to import large numbers of negroes into the coal mines of that State. In connection with the recent strikes in the Hocking Valley the following advertisements printed in Richmond, Virginia, a few day8 ago have a special significance: "Wated, 100 colored coal miners to start to Ohio Tuesday evening, September SO; wages earned from 12.00 to ?3 per day. J. P. Justis, employment agent, No. 9 North Fifteenth street." "Wanted, 200 colored coal miners and laborers, with or without families, to be ready to start for Ohio Tuesday, September 23; high wages. J. r. Justis, No. 9 North Fifteenth street." These men were to be received by agents and taken to the Hocking Valley, Mahoning County mines, where thousands of miners are out of employment

because of the reduction in wages. The

price promised in these advertisements Is more than the miners now out can possibly get Of course it is part of the scheme to carry this State at any cost. T. S. Curlett, of Lancaster, Virginia, who is employed in the Postoffice Department, and who in his leisure moments carries out the nefarious schemes mapped out by Senator Mahone, is supposed to be the guiding spirit of the bril liant colonization schemes. He left Columbus recently for the mining district, to further the details of the plan RETREAT OF THE ORGANS. What has come over the organs of late? They are not clamorinz for an immediate trial of the libel suit against the SentineL For a time they were in such a mood of haste that the whole talk was about waiving processes and abandoning all the law's delays. Now there is not a sentence demanding an early trial; no talk of waiving any process, and some of them are even hinting that a trial can not be had before the election. Is it possible that the work of vindicating the "sanctity of home and purity of woman" can be thus pushed aside and delayed? Their actions in this regard show what sniveling cant was thier talk about the sanctity of home and purity of woman. It shows that these organs would drag down in the mire the most sacred institutions known to civilized man to aid in the election of their tattooed candidate. The Sentinel has all along made a vigorous protest against associating the sanctity of home with anything like the vicious character of James G. Blaine. Now that it has made good every word of Its charges against him, these organs have lost sight of the sanctity of home and the purity of woman and are endeavoring to prevent a showing ol the moral rottenness of their candidate. GROVER CLEVELAND IN A MIRROR. It becomes more apparent with each succeeding day that the national Democracy made a wise selection of a candidate. There is that in Grover Cleveland's deportment throughout the three months of the campaign which commands the admiration that is accorded to heroism. With provocations for fierce denunciation ot his maligners, he has yet maintained a dignified and silent coatempt for their mannings. He has never once resorted to the cheap devices of the cheap politician. Harlequin gesticulation and show Mr. Cleveland has allowed his opponent to monopolize. All the self-respect, the dignity, the magnificent bearing, he has quietly appropriated to himself. While his Republican competitor was holding jockey levees at the seaside and posing before cross-roads audiences in Maine, Mr. Cleveland was taking rest in the modest retirement of the North woods. His rival rushed into court to defend his honor by attempting to frighten the press from criticising it About the same time Mr. Cleveland defended his honor by telling his friends to tell the truth concerning his record. When Blaine, forced so to do, made confession of his laches from morality and honorable manhood, Mr. Cleveland had been vindicated by popular investigation. While Blaine is "galivanting" over the States canvassing after the fashion of the book agent or sewing machine agent, Grover Cleveland is dignifiedly performing the duties of his office. Cleveland's demeanor is that of the statesman Blaine's that of a demagogue. Cleveland's stillness is that of the confident candidate Blaine's that ol'the apprehensive and anxious office-seeker. Cleveland is the staunch citizen Blaine the strolling actor. Blaine is continuously denying, apologizing and pleading Cleveland is asking no favors and making no appeals. Which of the two will best dignify the Presidential chair? CORRECT BASIS OF CREDIT. What the banking institutions of the community are most in need of at this time is a law to compel corporations to make quarterly or half yearly statements, under oath, of their financial condition, including a full description of their assets and liabilities; also the amount of authorized share capital that has been issued, and the number and amount of assessments made and paid. It has become quite fashionable of late for mercantile and manufacturing establishments to give over the good old fashioned copartnership way of conducting business enterprises and substitute stock companies therefor, and although the plan may have many advantages so far as the personal interests of the shareholders are concerned, it is clear that the system without the legal requirements referred to has but little to commend it to lenders of money. In fact, no method or system of doing business that does not recognize individual responsibility is worthy of credit except where the responsibility is shifted upon a community of shareholders, who in turn base their demands for credit upon the financial soundness of their corporations, which is verified from time to time under oath. Under the existing law, or rather in the absence of law, the real financial condition of stock companies is purely a matter of guess work, and no bank can possibly know beyond a doubt that its corporation borrower is solvent. It is the custom to place the share capital of commercial corporations at about twice the amount of actual cash employed before the copartnership was dissolved and the stock company established in its stead, and not infrequently aoes it appear upon investigation that a part ot the opart -nership has been withdrawn an J stock assessment promises to pay substituted, thus giving the corporation a public rating of twice the amount represented by the copartnership, while its actual rating and line o! discount should be perhaps 50 per cent, less. Moreover, these assessment promises to pay are very frequently absorbed or liquidated by voting extra compensation from time to time for services rendered, which is applied to them in the way of credits, thus making a company with a share capital of aay $100,000 appear to have that amount of cash capital, when, in fact, not more than 2-' per cent, of it was ever paid in in cash, which little sharp practice gives the concern commercial standing just 75 per cent, higher than its actual financial responsibility entitles it to. Aeainst this kind of mercantile financiering the banks have no safeguards, nor can they have except through legal enactments that will compel commercial corporations to file sworn statements with some public official for publication of their financial condition, including all assets

and liabilities, amount of share capital, and how much of the same represents actual cash

paid in, and how much represents good will, extra compensation, and influence. The banking institutions owe it to the industrial interests of the community to take such steps in the premises as shall lead to a thorough rooting out of all such business methods and systems. HOW HE DOES LIE! Blaine wired over the country as late as yesterday that he never owned an acre of land in the Hocking Coal Valley or in any other part of Ohio. This ia his exact langu?e, dated Bellaire, O., October 4: "I do not own and never did own an acre of coal land or any other kind of land in the Hocking Valley or in any other part of Ohio. My letter to Hon. Hezekiah Bandy, in July last, on the same subject, was accurately true. Very uuly yours, "James G. Blaine." Poor Blaine! He certainly is one of the most unfortunate of men. He confines his denial to coal land in the Bellaire dispatch, but in the Bar Harbor letter of July 22 he includes stock in coal or other lands, as follows: "Bae Harbor, Me., July 22, 1S31. "Hon. H. 6. Bundy. "In answer to your recent favor, I beg to say that I am not and never hava been the owner of any coal lands or iron lands or lands of any character whatever in the Hocking Valley, or in anv part of Ohio, nor have I at any time owned a share of stock in any coal, or iron, or land company in the State of Ohio. "J. G. Br, vise." Now here is the proof that he lied. Read it: SEXATE CifAMBER, Washington, Dec. 30, 13th. 1SS). Dear Sir Find enclosed 117 draft for $'",- 000 in payment ot my subscription to the Hope Furnace enterprise. Touching the interest, I have to ask th ' whatever it may amount to, you will permit its payment to be postponed until some mattera between Mr. Lee and myself are definitely adjusted. ery respectfully, ,1. o. ulmse, Mr. Denison. Bostov, Dec. 15, 1830. Received of James G. Blaine $25.1S7.50. being payment in full for one share in the association formed for the purchase of lands known as the Hope Furnace tract, situated in Vinton and Athens Counties, Ohio. This receipt to be exchanged for certificate when prepared. J. Denisox, Agent. New obk, May 3, 1S32. Received of J. Henrv Brooks S iO.000 of the first mortgage bonds of the Standard Coal and Iron Company on account of James G. Biane, numbered from 3Ö1 to 400 inclusive. S. B. Elkins. Some of his friends say that the proper ex planation is that Mr. Blaine loaned the 23,000 and took stock as security. But J. Henry Brooks, to whom Elkins receipted for $00,000 worth of bond?, siys: a it has been brought to my no tice that W. D. Lee has made a statement to the New York Tribune in which he alleges subscription of Hon. J. G. Blaine, of the Hope 1- urnace tract, was ot the nature of a loan or investment of a conditional character, as Mr. Blaine might elect. I would beg to state that I delivered the 550,000 in Standard Coal and Iron Company's bonds on the 2öth of May, 1S32, to Hon. S. B. Elkins for Mr. Blaine, with no such knowledge of understanding, and that any secret arrangements that Blaine may have had with private parties, if such existed, had nothing whatever to do with the relations that Mr. Blaine entered into with Boston gentlemen when he signed those articles of association, for he became an absolute owner when his payment was made. But, if for the moment, it would be any comfort to the friends of Mr. Blaine to receive Mr. Lee's statement as true, it would seem to me to be doubly unfortunate for Mr. Blaine, for it would then appear that he had allowed the use of his signature to solicit subscriptions from the investing public in such a manner as the alleged true facts in the case would have warranted, and has, perhaps for prudential reasons, never given either Mr. Denison or myself this remarkable information. Very respectfully yours, "J. Henry Brooks." GOOD ENOUGH. Some of the organs are finding fault with the Democratic press for not eetting forth the virtues and record of Cleveland rather than finding so much fault with Blaine. Tbey rather hint that the former is a barren field. This of course is not true. We have 'repeatedly placed before our readers the de tails of the brilliant and clear record of the Governor of New York, and as for the ammunition we have used against Blaine it has been kindly furnished by himself and his friends. Cleveland has done nothing, say the organs. If any of our readers think with the organs let the eye be cast along this brief summary: Governor Cleveland signed the bill, passed by a Democratic Legislature, to allow the people to express their opinion against the competition of convict with honest labor. Governor Cleveland compelled the last Republican Legislature, much against its will, to pass a bill in accordance with the wishes of the people so emphatically expressed at the polls last fall, against the continuance of the prison contract system. Governor Cleveland signed the bill to abolish contract child labor in all the State Reformatories. Governor Cleveland approved two bills against tenement house cigar manufacturings. Governor Cleveland signed the bill making workingmen first creditors for wages in case of the failure of the employer or contractor. Governor Cleveland signed the bill to protect hat makers from convict manufacture. Governor Cleveland s'gned the bill to protect the widows and orphans from swindling insurance corporations. Governor Cleveland gaye his signature to the Emigration bill to protect emigrants from extortion and robbery. Governor Cleveland signed the bill to prevent pawn-brokers from robbing the poor and unfortunate. Governor Cleveland signed the bill for the better protection of those who place their earnings in the saving banks. Governor Cleveland signed the bill which provides for the testing of steam boilers, that laboring men might be better protected from accidents resulting from the careless indifference of wealthy corporations. Governor Cleveland asked the last Republican Legislature to appropriate aufficient funds to allow laboring men to continue work on the Capitol. This the Republican Legislature refused to do, preferring to squander the State funds on Commissions and political Investigating Committees rather than for the benefit of workingmen. What Governor has done more for labor than Governor Cleveland? The artesian well at the Geneva, I1L, grape anpur lfflnorv has reached a depth of 1.200 n - ' 1 feet.

ANOTHER DAMAGING EXPOSURE. The Republican Candidate's Offer of $10,000 for the Mulligan Letters. liovr Mr. Fisher Wa Asked to Perjure Himself-Blaioe Offers 10,000 for the Mulligan Letters. At a meeting last Saturday night at Fairfield, X. J., Mr. Gustave Eobbe, a well known citizen ef New York, made the following remarks. In speaking of the famous Mulligan letters he gave a complete analysis of the Fisher-Caldwell affairs and Mr. Blaine's scandalous use of his public office to further his private business. ASKING FIHEIt TO PEKJIBE HIMSELF. "I am somewhat familiar with the letters," said Mr. Kobbe. "I am acquainted with Mr. Fisher, and three winters ago he showed me at his house, in Boston, the most important of these letters, lately published. I remembered particularly that wnich contained the draft of the statement that Mr. Blaine wished Mr. Fisher to sign, and which was to be used by Mr. Blaine to shield himself against an investigation into the amount of his railroad transactions, which was then impending. Mr. Fisher saw Mr. Blaines dodge. 'That letter is false,' he said. 'Mr. Blaine wanted me to sign it; then he would proceed to read it to the committee. Of course, I would be supenaed, and I would have to perjure myself in substantiating it. It was an indirect request for me to perjure myself.' " Mr. Kobbe then, with great detail, took up the various Mulligan letters, and described Mr. Blaine's repeated attempts to have Fisher, at any moral cost, swear him out of his (Blaine's) dilemma. ANOTHER MCLLIGAS LETTEK. Then came the sensation of the evening the reading of a letter from Mr. Fisher to Mr. Kobbe, reciting Mr. Blaine's offer in 130 of 510,000 to Mulligan to give up tie now famous letters, and a further offer to pay all their expenses if Mulligan and Fisher would leave the country until after the election. "I will read one more letter," said Mr. Kobbe. "In a certain sense it is a Mulligan letter. It is not written by Mr. Blaine, but by Mr. Fisher. You remember that when Mr. Blaine was asked with regard to the second batch of Mulligan letters, he had the assurance to express a wish that every Republican paper i the country would publish them. I tell you that, on the contrary, Mr. Blaine had made every possible effort to gain possession of these letters, and Fisher : writes to me in regard to this and says that Blaine made the most determined effort? to get possession of them. I hold in my hand here a letter from Mr. Fisher to me which I will read to you." Amid breathless silence the speaker read the following: Windsor. Vt.. July 12. 1SSL In April or May of 180 Maine sent word to have me meet him at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. He then authorized me to get the letters from Malligan, pay $10.000 if I could not get them for less, and tiien wanted Mr. Mulligan and myself to go to Europe and rem&iu uuttl after ; election at his expeine. Mr. Mulligan declined the ofler. He aaid that Blaine had stolen bis letters -iu Washington; he never should have what he bold at any price. Warren Fisher. Mr. Kobbe asked the audience whether it was likely that Mr. Biaine wanted to get these letters in order to publish them as incidents in his "Twenty Years of Congress." Cries of "No," "The rascal," "Turn the rascal out," and groans and hisses. A remedy for rheumatism, which lifts one from a condition of helplessness and makes life worth living, is described by Mr. D. L. Southard, a prominent citizen of Greencastle, Ind. He says: "For six weeks I grew worse under an attack of rheumatism, though I had good medical treatment. Could not move without great pain, and had to be helped. Bishop Bowman brought me a bottle of Athlophoros. Began taking it in the morning. That night I slept free from pain. The next morning I felt like a well man." It is charged that water has been transferred from a liltay creek into the open reservoir ot the Galeaburg Water Works Company. The water smells badly, and the city will probably cancel its contract with the company A Good Many Failures. DuriDg the year ISS3 there were 10,5S failures in business in the United States and Canada. Borne of these were big concerns, and some were very small. Failure is sorrowful business to any man, especially if it is bis health that fails. A great many times 10,503 people fail in health in the course of a year. Many of them might be saved if they wbnld take Brown's Iron Bitters, the great family medicine and restorer of wasted health. The question whether young women shall pursue the same line of studies as their brothers, seems to find its chief objection in their different physical constitution. Arguments on this subject are finely handled on both sides; bnt the perfect adaptation of Mrs. Finkham's Vegetable Compound to the cure of ailments attending the feminine organism needs no argument; its works are its proof. For over a quarter of a century, physicians have prescribed Nichols Bark and Iron as a reliable and valuable remedy for dyspepsia and general debility.
