If your nearest, best and most esteemed neighbors had written the following letters they could be no more worthy of your confidence than they now are, coming, as they do, from well known, intelligent and trustworthy citizens who, in their several neighborhoods, enjoy the fullest confidence and respect of all. Mrs. F. L. Inman, of Manton, Wexford Co., Mich., whose portrait heads this article, •writes as follows: “I began taking Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription atout a year ago. For years I have suffered with falling end ulceration of the womb, but to-day, 1 am enjoying perfect health. I took four bottles of the ‘ Prescription ’ and two of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. Every lady suffering from female ■weakness should try the ‘ Prescription ’ and ‘ Golden Medical Discovery.’ ” Miss Mary J. Tanney North Lawrence, St Lawrence Co.,' N. Y., writes: “I was eick for four years. For two years I could do no work. I had five different physicians, ■who pronounced my case a poor or impoverished condition of the blood, and uterine trouble. I suffered a great deal with pain in both sides, and much tenderness on pressing over the womb. I bloated at times in my bowels and limbs; was troubled with leucorrhea. I could not sleep, and was troubled with palpitation of the heart. Suffered n. great deal of pain in my head, temples, forehead and eyes. I had a troublesome cough, raised a great deal and at times experienced a good deal of pain in my chest and lungs. My voice at times was very weak. I suffered excruciating monthly, periodical pains. Since taking seven bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription sometime ago, I have enjoyed better health than I have for more than four years previously; in fact, for several months past I have been able to •work at sewing. I have gained in weight thirty-nine pounds since taking your medicines ; the soreness and pain Eave disappeared.’’ Yours truly, (fa/”

Mrs. Alex. Robertson, of Half Rock, Mercer Co., Mo., writes: “ For twenty years. I suffered with womb disease and most of the time I was in constant pain which rendered life a great burden, I cannot express what I suffered. I had eight doctors and all tho medicine I had from them failed—the one after the other. I was nervous, cold hands and feet t palpitation, headache, backache, constipation, leucorrhea and no appetite, with bearing-down pains. 1 got so weak I could not walk around. I had to keep my bed, thinking I would never get any better. One day my husband got one of your little books and read it to me. He said there was nothing doing me any good. I said I would try Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I did try it. After the first few weeks my appetite was better ; I was able to sit up in bed. I wrote to the World’s Dispensary Medical Association, at Buffalo, N. Y., and described my case ; they sent' me a book on woman’s diseases. I read carefully and followed the directions as near as I could and took tho medicine for two years. With the blessing of God and your medicines, 1 am entirely cured. That was three years ago.” Yours truly, “ Favorite Prescription ” is a positive euro for the most complicated and obstinate cases of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, painful menstruation, unnatural suppressions, and irregularities, prolapsus, or falling of the womb, weak back, “ female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the womb, inflammation, pain and tenderness in ovaries, accompanied with “ internal heat.” The Book (163 pages, Illustrated) referred to above, is sent sealed secure from observation in plain envelope for ten cents in stamps, to pay postage.

A PILOT NEEDED.

One Who I« Level He*ded and Patriotic, and Who Is Able to Pilot the Old Ship of State from the Dangerous Breakers Upon Which She Is Drifting. No sooner was the seigniorage bill passed, and while the people of the country were congratulating themselves that at least one step had been taken in the direction of increasing the currency of the country on a safe basis, than we learned that leading commercial bodies of the east were combining to protest against the signature of the bill by President Cleveland. Petitions asking the president to withhold his signature from the bill were forwarded to Washington from fifty prominent bankers, from the New York chamber of commerce and from the Philadelphia board of trade. A resolution was introduced in the house for the investigation of reports that members of the house committee on coinage had given assurance to President Cleveland that if the Bland seigniorage bill- was signed no free coinage bill would be reported. It is not at all encouraging, to citizens who are neither “goldites” nor “silverites, "but who simply desire to see a satisfactory solution of the vexed financial problem in the interest of the country at large—it is not, we say, encouraging to patriotic citizens to notice the frequent cropping out in the financial centers of the east of a persistent effort to defeat, by fair means or foul, and at any cost, the effort which is being made to mitigate the prevailing financial stringency by increasing the present volume of currency on a safe basis. It is evident, from this action of the leading commercial and financial bodies of the east, that these people are not merely opposed to the wild and questionable plans of the silver men, but they are opposed to any movement that would insure reasonable recognition of the white metal. In fact, we are forced to the conclusion that these people would like to see the finances of the country brought to a strictly gold basis, and silver degraded to a merely commercial metal. It is diffleult to interpret the actions of eastern financial leaders and their servants in congress in any other manner.

This is the more to be regretted as it makes the possibility of arriving at a satisfactory settlement of our present troubles much more difficult These respected bankers and bondholders of New York and Bos on and Philadelphia are, in one sense, as dangerous to this country at the present time as are such cranks as Coxey, who proposes to lead an army of men to Washington, to demand, among other things, that the government coin an unlimited quantity of silver or paper and call it money. The country appears to be suffering just now from an epidemic of extremes—extreme views on the part of those who have much and crave for more, and other extreme views on the part of those who because they have nothing are jealous of the rich. As we have before observed, this country is at present in sore need of a few patriotic, level headed statesmen, who will take charge of the ship of state and pilot her out of the dangerous breakers toward which she is at present drifting.—Los Angeles Times.

A PROLIFIC STUDY.

The Sliver Question Is Receiving the Attention of the People. While President Cleveland was lately studying the seigniorage bill other people were also reading up on the silver question. As a distinguished Englishman puts it, “this silver question is the biggest American issue since the war of the rebellion,” so it is but natural that people of all classes and conditions should be giving it some attention. And to show the respect that is being paid to the silver cause even by its enemies we find a statement in the financial column of the Chicago Tribune, a most pronounced anti-silver paper, that an international silver conference in the near future is a strong probability, and that this time our country will not have to take a secondary place and have to submit to the patronizing airs of Europe. As a matter of special interest bearing on this changed prospect, the Tribune quotes from a letter from a member of one of the foremost banking houses of London and Paris, in which he says: “Rest assured that there will be another silver conference. Every important nation will join it The United will this time command a more serious position than ever before any of the European nations were willing to accord.” The letter adds that it is open talk in inner circles that the Prince of Wales “is becoming something of a devotee of the bimetallic doctrines of Goschen.” When the Tribune’s New York correspondent went among the bankers of the metropolis and asked their opinions as to the prospects of another international conference, it was generally conceded that such a conference was certain. — Portland (Ore.) Telegram.

Intrinsic Value.

People who talk of intrinsic value forget that much of the value is put into the metal by the demand created by law. Is there such a thing as an absolute staple dollar. If there is we all want it If you can show us a dollar which is the same yesterday, to-day and forever; if you can show us a dollar which changes not from generation to generation, the people certainly would take that dollar, even if they had to turn every mine into a wilderness. There is no such dollar. The simple contention now is, which dollar is the best dollar; what kind of a standard is the best standard. What kind of a standard will give the least fluctuation and the most justice? Doss any one say the gold standard is invariable? Let me say if there is such a one, you cannot find a writer on political economy who is willing to stake his reputation on the statement. No dollar, whether it be based upon gold or based upon silver or based upon both, is an absolute staple and invariable dollar.— Hon. W. J. Bryan.
