UNION & RECORDER. Milledgeville, Ga., February 10, 1884 THE MORRISOS TARIFF BILE. Wo said nothing in our last week’s issue about the Morrison bill reported from the committee of Ways and Means, becaus> we had not seen it in time. Indeed at thi* writing, the 11th, we have seen only a par tial notice of some of its features. From these, as exhibited in the New York Her ald, we think it should be satisfactory t< the country. No Democrats should b< opposed to it for its liberality towards the manufacturers. As our readers know, we have advocated a gradual reduction ot the high duties that no serious injury should be done to the manufacturing in dustries which have been built up undei the encouragemei t given them by Con gressional action. The large subsidies granted were unconstitutional and impos ed heavy and unnecessary taxation upoi •the people. Reform is necessary, but ai immediate reduction to the constitutions limit, for revenue only, would of itsell produce wide spread evils which should b. avoided by a gradual reduction of the du ties. We have, on several occasions, as our readers know, suggested a diminution of twenty or twenty-live per cent. The bill adopted a reduction of 20 per cent, bin in a few cases it is larger and in some smaller, to take effect the 1st day of July. l , -84. Reference is made to various sched ules on cotton and cotton goods, hemp, jute and ilax goods, other than jute butts, wool and woollens, metals other than ores, books, papers, &e., sugar, tobacco, wood and wooden vtare, with someexcepiions, The general reader will comprehend tin matter easier by the dec laration, that “N> duty, or rate of duty shall, after said 1st day of July, 1SS4, be levied, collected, or paid, in exc-ss of 41 per cent advalorem. or its equivalent on cotton and cotton goods; 50 per cent advalorem, or its equiva lent on metals, and 00 per centum advalo rem on wool and woollen goods.” This prevents the i eduction of the duties on these articles as laid by the bill of March 2nd, 1861, commonly called the Morrill tariff. On all unpolished cylinder, crown and common window glass, or cast, polish ed plate glass, unsilvered, exceeding 24 hy 00 inches square; on salt in bags, sack9, barrels or other packages or in bulk. We present a lew instances to show the difference in duties under the present tariff and the Morrison bill. PRESENT HIGH TARIFF. Blanket’s average per cent., 77 Woollen hats, per cent., 75 Woollen hosiery and undershirts,.. 75 Morrison bill, duty not to exceed 40 per cent., and so of other aftides, such as metals, iron, steel, Ac. While the Morrison bill will reduce prices to the coiisumer.it only partially diminishes the subsidy granted to the manufacturer. But it is understood that this is the beginning of the intended re form, the object being, to bring down the duiies to the constitutional standard, for revenue only. But it seerfts there are some who object to this policy. W** notice In the Herald that there is a movement suggested to get up a new party to more speedily and surely reform the tariff abuses and evils. The plan is to form a new party based up on the idea that certain relief can be ob tained, neither from the Republican nor Democratic party. The plan is to cu 1 loose from both the oi l parties, establish tariff reform clubs in every district in the country and appeal dirrectly everywhere to the people to rally to the new party and its candidates. We cannot And room for all the facts and suggestions put forth for this new departure schem**, hut as it is an exciting matter suggested for public con sideration, it is our duty to present it to our readers. We copy as follows from the New York Weekly Herald of the 9th in stant: “Finally, it is thought that the presen tation of the subject in the agricultural districts in particular would secure a 1 irge following, because the reform pnmosltion issimpie apd directand appeals to theeora- raon sense and pockets of all who till the soil The following comparison is sug gested to be scattered broadcast over the country. NECESSARY TAXES. Excise on spirits and tariff on foreign spirits and wines to pay all the ordinary expenses or the government; tobacco ex cise and tariff on foreign tobacco and ci gars to pay army; beer, navy; sugar, in terest on the debt; tariff on silks, furs, linens, fancy goods, jewelry and the sur plus from previous taxes, pensions. Compare with this the various duties, all superfluous, which are now laid by the tariff on the necessaries and comforts of life used by the farmers and mechanics of the country. WIIAT THE FARMER OR MECHANIC PAYS. First comes his kitchen. The iron his stove is made of, 45 percent; hollow ware, pots and kettles, 53 per cent; copper and brass utensils, if anv, 45 per cent; crocke ry, of the commonest kind, 55 per eent; glassware, of the cheapest kind, 45 per cent; table cutlery and spoons, 45 percent; pickled or salted fish, 25 per cent; salt, 36 per cent; sugar, 42 per cent; vinegar, 36 pur cent; pi.-kle-, 35 per cent; rice. 123 per cent; oranges and other foreign fruits, a- bout 20 p- r cent. Then comes the iarni er’s or mechanic’s parlor, on whose con tents he pays duties as follows, the a mount of tile duties being added by tile home manufacturer:—Carpet, if made ot drugeets. 74 per cent; carpet if made of tapesl t v,63 per cent; furniture, 35percent; wall paper, 25 p*-r eeiu ; window curtain*. 45 per O' nt; looking glass, rom 35 to 60 per cent; ornaments or kniekknaeks, $5 percent., NeX' mines the farrier's ward rob*. Men'* clothing, of wool, 43 percent; woollen hosiery and undershirts, 75 per cent; cotton hosiery and undeishiits, 45 percent} wo- lien hats arid caps, 75 pci cent; gloves, 50 per cent; blankeis, CO per cent; a'paca dresses. 63 per cent; any oth er wooilen dresses, from 60 to 70 per cent; a pair of scissors, 45 per is, t; liras* pin*, 30 percent; hairpins, 45 per cent; pen knives. 50 per cent; needle.*, 25 percent; Steel pens, 45 per cent; ink, 25 per cent; paper. 20 tier cent; razors, 45 per cent. Finally, here are various other contents i f the farmer’s h" se and barn on which h - mu*t needlessly pay duty:—Castor oil, 102 per cpnt; Cnstiiesoap, 31 per cent; a rinse of Ed'oni salts. 30 per eein ; insect po-v der twenty per t ent; salad oil, thirty-four percent. The commonest window gla*~ for his house, 80 p*-r cent; paint, white lead for his la nil house 54 per cent; brick*, 85 percent; roofing slates, 30 per cent; horseshoe nails, 31 percent; trace chain*, 53 per cent; a Itm d*nw. 40 per cent ; files, 4 i per cent; spool thread, 60 per ccnl; bags anri bagging tor his grain, 40 per cent; a hui rstoiie, 20 per cent; combs and brushes, 30 per cent; a wooden pipe, 80 per eent; an alpaca umbrella, 50 per cent; any iron or steel he may need, an average of 45 per cent. Our farming readers will see from the foregoing ho* va rious evils to them, point ed out heretofore by us, are sustained in it It is evident that the anti-tariff blood is up. These are no unmeaning thrills of feeling—no undefined sensations. They were exhibited at the polls in November, 18S2. They are seen in the persons of that great Democratic majority in the Congres sional House of Representatives. The Democratic members are fully instructed in their duty and most of them we believe aro aroused like war horses at the sound of a trumpet. But they must let the peo ple know that these tariff chains must be taken iff them. Let no democrat have cause to doubt that their leadersareiisten- ing in their heart's memories to the deep thrilling tones of the old revolutionary horn that called our fathers to Freedom’s holy fields and equally so that they have sworn to lead and free the people now from the licentious plunderers of their purses. There is xo Inconsistency in It.— The protectionists are charging the revenue men with, inconsistency in saying the high tariff made the man ufacturers rich monopolists, and are now saying it is ruining their busi ness. There is no inconsistency in it. It did make them rich for a time, but the iurge subsidies granted caus ed too many to embark in the busi ness. It was over iotie, prices fall and their profits are diminished. But the subsidies continue and the peo ple are still unnecessarily taxed. The operatives are made to suffer by re duced wages. Mills suspend opera tions for a part of the time and dis miss the workmen until they resume. TARIFF LIGHT, NO. 2. CRIME. Presidential Candidates. Truth is one of the immutable laws of social order. Some, peo ple are very ignorant, or they ig- noinimously discard truth in say ing, that a protective tariff has. ever been sustained by the Dem ocratic party. T\ e will put this declaration, or rather those who assert it upon trial at the bar of public judgment. Our readers know that we have exposed the untruthfulness of the statement not once only but on several oc casions. We prefer now to sus tain what we have said by recent declarations of Mr. Perry Bel- m<At of the congressional House of Representatives from -New York. Mr. Belmont goes as far back as 1800, the year in which Mr. Jefferson was first elected Presi dent. The Jeffersonian party “demanded free commerce with all nations, political connections with none, and little or no diplo matic establishments.” He then comes down to 183G, when nomi nations £or Presidential candi dates was first adopted. The democratic platform in that year “proclaims hostility to any and all monopolies by legislation, be cause they are violations of the equal rights of the people. The true foundation of a republican government is tlie equal rights of every citizen in his person and property and in its management.” The platform in 1840 was: “Resolved that Justice and sound policy forbid the Federal Gov ernment to foster one branch of industry to the detriment of an other, or to cherish the interests of one portion to the injury of another portion of our common country.” Mr. Belmont then quotes that portion which for bids the raising of more revenue than is required for an economi cal administration of the govern ment. Mr. Belmont says ;—The Dem ocratic convention of 18U4 reaf firmed the position taken in 1840. In 1848 Mr. Belmont says the Democratic convention “Resolved that the fruits pi the great politi cal triumph of 1844 have fulfilled the hopes of the Democracy of the Union in the noble impulse given to Free Trade by the tariff of 1842 and the creation of the more equal, honest and productive tariff of 1846, &c.” He then refers to the platform of 1852 in which it says it will continue to resist “all monopolies and exclusive legislation for the benefit of tlie few at the expense of the many.” Mr. Bcdmont quotes the plat form of 1856 as follow's : “Resolv ed, that justice aud sound policy forbid the Federal Government to foster one branch of industry to the detriment of another, or to cherish the interests of one por tion of our common country.” He says: “In 1860 both the Douglass and Breckenridge plat forms reaffirmed the resolution of 1856” as quoted above. We pass over the war times and Greely campaign, to come back to Democratic work. Mr. Belmont then quotes the Democratic platform in 1876 when we ran and elected Mr. Tilden. He gives the platform of the party in full and we present it as follows, though it is so fa miliar to our readers :—“We de nounce the present tariff levied upon nearly 4,000 articles as a ! masterpiece of injustice, inequali- ■ tv and false pretense. It yields ' a dwindling, not a yearly rising j revenue. It has impoverished j many industries to subsidize a [ few. It prohibits imports that might purchase the products of American labor. It lias degraded American commerce from the first to an inferior rank on the high seas. It has cut dow n the sales of American Manufactures at home and abroad, and deplet ed the returns of American Agri culture, an industry followed by half our people. It costs the people five times more than it produces to the Treasury, ob structs the processes of produc tion and wastes the fruits of la bor. It promotes fraud, fosters smuggling, enriches dishonest of ficials, and bankrupts honest merchants. We demand that all custom-house taxation shall be only for revenue.” Mr. Belmont closes with the platform of 1880, which on the revenue question was “a tariff for revenue only.” All these matters are familiar to most of our readers. We copy the foregoing * statements and facts from that ever true and able paper the Louisville, Ky., Courier Journal. It is always filled with matters of the deepest interest to the people. Mr. Belmont is a distinguished democratic con gressman from New York. Will any of our Democratic protec tionists contest his statements of the Democratic law on the tariff question. It is before the coun try. If any doubted us, will they doubt Mr. Belmont? Some may have deemed our views to be the dogmas of one not fully posted on these important matters. We may have been deemed to be pas sionate, pretentious and presump tions, but the more you may in vestigate you will find that we are in accord with the highest standard of democratic sentiment on this vital qnestion. We have studied it long enough to be able to separate truth from error and tender our convictions in a spirit of modest devotion to the best interests of all, including the man ufacturers themselves. Some people are betrayed by the deceit ful gleams of supposed protection to home and domestic industries, but when rightly understood pro tection is a slavish doctrine, in consistent with American man hood and free institutions. . I _ Vg have tooked around amon# tho Re- Some one lms saul tlmt the publicans and we cm see no set of facts chief causes of crime are poverty, that autii<>nz> any to make even a phusl- lgnorance and intemperance. We doubt the truth of this statement. While many crimes may be com mitted for the reasons stated, we think the chief cause of crime is the innate wickedness of the hu man heart. There are thousands of people who are savages by na ture. They are cross-grained, ill- tempered, quarrelsome, head strong and combative. Very slight causes will throw them in to intemperate passion. They will easily rage and fume, with eyes flashing fire, and pity, for the time, is exiled from* their hearts. Such persons are ready to seek vengeance for slight causes, and under these agitable passions it flows as naturally as forked-tongued lightnings do from a storm cloud. These are facts which no reflective mind can fail to see and it teaches the necessi ty of instilling into the young mind the dangers of intemperate passion and the study of all the temperate virtues, such as pa tience under wrong, forgiveness of injuries, and gentleness in the social relations. These should be taught at school and impressed with constant earnestness in early education. This is a pure and at tractive philosophy which rever should be neglected. THE BONAPARTISTS. A Paiis dispatch of February 1st, says: Prince Jerome Napoleon informed a Bonapartist deputation which wait ed upon him that the time had ar rived to commence legal, open and untiring agitation for the promotion of the Bonapartist cause. It has been decided to hold a large meeting on the 17th inst., for the purpose of discussing the necessity of the revi sion of the Constitution. How the government will receive this manifestation of a desire to re store tiie dynasty of the Bonapartes, remains to be seen. There is but lit tle doubt, that of the pretendeis to tlie French tiirone, the Bonapartists are much stronger than their Orleans or Bourbon rivals. But we think it probable that the friends of the French Republic are stronger than either. France has prospered as a republic. We have Jioped that the people would sustain it. But for the Bonapartists, there would be little danger of a change. The name and fame of Napoleon the Great, still bears a charmed power in the hearts and memories of a vast number of Frenchmen. The revolutionary ar mies, under the guidance of that greatest of military chieftains, tem porarily humbled the old tyran nies of Europe. They crumbled be low their blows aud, if not trampled permanently down, they exhibited a spectacle of fright and humiliation never witnessed on that continent before. Our readers know how, when Napoleon had exhausted his re sources, lie was finally overthrown by what was termed the Holy Alli ance. But, for twenty years his pow er was terrible and majestic, and he raised France to the highest pinnacle of national renown. These were the mighty deeds of the past, accomplish ed by Frenchmen, guided by the ge nius of Napoleon the 1st. The gay, romantic and chivalrous French, worshipped the great leader who led them to the heights of greatness and fame. It made Napoleon III. the Emperor of France and may lead, again, to civil dissention and the res toration of the Napoleon dynasty in the person of Prince Jerome, but we trust not, believing that France, will bo greater and happier following the example of the revolutionary fathers of the American confederation. .SWIFT RETRIBUTION. We have very seldom alluded to certain crimes in our columns, but some other papers have, and per haps it is well to publish them. They are crimes committed chiefly by col ored men. The retribution is swift and certain. Masked men and some times men that are not masked, take the law into their own hands and jailers would be unsafe in such cases to resist. The guilty parties are taken to the nearest tree and hanged, or to a little distance and riddled with bullets. Nobody is arrested or heM to any accountability for it, and no one objects to the sure and cer tain punishment for such crimes. It is as certain in the north as in the south. Vengeance is the law, with out trial in such cases, and it wiil be soin every instance. Tu those cases we are silent, for the brutality will not be submitted to for a moment longer than the time necessary to get the brutes in hand. A word is sufficient. There is and there will be no delay. This is perhaps the surest protection. THE WAYNESBORO TRIAL. Colds yields to onl<>ns like magic, but Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup is a still better ami by far more agreeable means of curing a Cold or Cough. You can bay a bottle for 25 ci nt* at any drug store, and wo are sure it will do tho work every time. Edgefield Chronicle: One of the finest schools in Augusta is the Houghton Institute, of which Prof. J. Cnthbert Shecut is principal, and his school is now in a very flourishing condition. Prof. Shecut is well known in Edgefield, and as he i3 a gentleman of the highest moral char acter and of superior ability we are not surprised that the Institute, un der bis supervision, is so prosperous. The jury, as every one knows, brought in a verdict of “not guilty” in favor of Rodgers and McNorrill, charged with the murder of Tom Syms. Tiie Waynesboro paper, and the papers of Augusta, gave such full report* of the trial that we deemed it unnecessary to attempt a report of the testimony. It will always rank with the most celebrated criminal trials that have appeared in the State, both on account of the intense interest and excitement which per vaded the community in which the killing occurred, and the extraordi nary display of legal and forensic ability exhibited by tho counsel on both sides. Tho Solicitor General, Mr. Wright, did not speak in the gladitoi ial legal contest on account of temporary ill health. Judge Lov ett opened for the State in a strong and powerful speech, he was answered by the elegant, eloquent Ashton, who has been called the Georgia Chat ham, and one after another, followed the forcible and eloquent Gary; H. Clay Foster, 5vho as a powerful speaker, does no discredit to the great name he represents; the fasci nating, ingenious, and brilliant Twiggs and the entrancing and mag netic Black. It is seldom that any one in a lifetime can witness such a flow of eloquence as fell from the lips of these great Georgia orators. There is apt to be a sympathy, whethei right or wrong, with defend ants whose lives are at stake. Wo knew that Col. Ashton, with great ingenuity, was a master of ornamen tal eloquence, with admirable voice and commanding impressiveness of features and figure, we knew that grasping the strongest points of a case was Clay Foster’s forte, and we doubted if any one could beat Judge Twiggs in the vehement sublimity of passion that would play ttpon the heart-strings of a jury. These views led us to imagine the result and we felt no surprise at tho verdict of ac quintal. b!e conjecture as tu Whom the Republican party will select for their candidate. The same difficulty, or uncertainty, exists as to the Democratic candidate. While such is the case as to tiie men, we think there is no reasonable doubt as to the prevailing principle that will be recognized in mak ing the rejections. It will b> ‘ protection” ou the one hand, and “revenue only” on the other. It is too soon to form opinions as to the men, but not as to the principle involved. We refer to this merely to show the unp'easant and extraordinary singular predicament in which the Democratic pro tectionists will be placed. We have tried to conve^- tl is idea in various forms and shapes while opposing their peculiar views. They may dohbt the correctness of our opinion. But suppose it turns out to be true? Do any of them doubt that the leading featu'-e of the Republican platform will be a tariff for protection? We know not how they can doubt it. Well, if the leading feature or the Democratic party shall be a tariff for revenue, the Demo cratic Pi oh ctionists will stand substanti ally upon the platform of the Republicans, and will not be able to combat, the Repub lican doc-trine. The tight, between the two parties, will be for tho Presidency and the control of the government. The Repub licans will lay their claims for the control of the government, upon their advocacy of the protective tariff policy, aud tho Demo crats will claim the votes of the people upon their advocacy of a tariff for revenue. This will be tiie great and leading issue. The man, who doubts this, is governed, in our opinion, by nationalities and fan cies rather than facts. Facts a r e stubborn things whieh stare us in the face; notions and fine fancies are usually founded upon caprice, Inclinations and hopes. Enough has already been done to show the impos sibility or the adoption of the protective policy by tho Democratic party. ‘Alabama .. 10}Nevada .. 3 Aikarsas ... 6} New Jersey .. 5'North Caioiina. .. 9 California ... 10 Delaware 3< South Carol.ua. .. 7 Florida ... 4 Tennessee .. 12 Georgia .. 11 Texas .. 8 Kentucky .. l2!Virginia .. 11 Louisiana .. 8'West Virginia.. 5 Maryland . . . .. 8^ — Mississippi Missouri .. 8 .. 15 Total . 155 By the new apportionment additional votes were given to the above mentioned states as follows.

A Paris dispatch of tho 10th says that Mr. De Lesseps stated at a banquet given to tho scientific press, that a sea in the desert of Sahara would be realized. M. Roudaire, a French nydrographer who conceived the project of cutting the dunes whicn separate Mediterranean sea from the desert, in order to transform the arid sands into a fertile country, is about to start for Tunis armed with the necessary firman from the Sultan, to begin opera tions. A glance at the map of Africa will show that the distance is not very great from the Mediterranean to the northern boun dary of tiie desert. The dune* alluded to are small sand hills or banks through which the canal could be dug to make the desert a sea. This is a wonderful enter prise, and If successful would make Africa a wonderful enterprise and if successful would make Africa a wonderful conti nent. The Sahara Is about 1,900 mile3 in length and something over half that dis tance in width. How picturesque it would be to see the new sea dotted over with beautiful islands and villages for there would tie portions of the desert that would not be covered with water. Indeed there are small fertile sections with villages in in the desert, which lies between the 18th and 30th degrees of latitude on which the tropical fruits could be grown in great abundance. This enterprise would open a great commerce to tho world aud bring into prominence v,.st districts heretofore butlittle known to the world. Thisgrand enterprise, if successful, would make old Africa a 6eat of flourishing commerce in comunion with all the rest of the world. This enterprise will be watched with an interest unexampled in the great develop ments or modern enterprise and commer cial improvement. A Remarkable Surgical Operation. —New Y'ork, Jan. 31.—A man lies in Bellevue Hospital with a rubber tube through his brain. His name is Bru no Know, and he is the young Ger man who last Thursday shot himself. The bullet, of 32 calibre, went into his skull on the central line, between his eyes. Drs. Fluher and ?»Iorris of the hospital probed for the bullet and found that it had passed through the brain. Taking the direction and calculating closely, they cut a hole in the back of Know’s skull. The in strument used was a trephine, which is a cylindrical saw. It was placed against the skull and worked round aud round until a hole as large as a ten cent piece was cut. Then the bullet was removed and a rubber drainage tube passed through the brain. It projects a little at each end. * The operation, which was wit nessed by the surgical staff of the Bellevue hospital, lasted, about four hours. On Saturday and Sun day, Know was stupid and partially unconscious, but at times he gave short answers to questions. To-day he was much brighter and could talk and help himself. His right arm seemed to be partially paralyzed. There seems to be little doubt as to his ultimate recovery. New Tork the Battle Ground. From the Chicago Herald. Under the new congressional apportion ment the various states wiil at the* Dext election have four hundred and on# elec toral votes, of.whichAwo hundred and one will be necessary to a choice. Four years ago the following named states gave their votes for Hancock and English: Climbing the Spiral Stairs, j Bail COllBCtlOlS Sil MU®. In 1880 gives the strength of the Demo crats in the electoral college at 172, winch with the thirty-six votes of New Yot k State, would make 208, a clear majority or seven. In this enumeration the only state not certainly Democratic is New York, while not Included In it are Indiana aud Connec ticut, which are quite a9 likely to be Dem ocratic as Republican. Beyond this it would be idle for the Democrats to look. They might carry ail the states first named, and Indiana and Connecticut as well, but, losing New York they would be defeated. On the other hand, if they should make New York t.he battle field,and stake their hope of success on their ability to carry it, they would, with unobjection able candidates, have but to retain a state already their own. and the votes of Iudi- ana and Connecticut could be held in re serve to make up for any break which might occur in some less important quar ter. The necessity of the Democrats mak ing their campaign in New York is soplain as to require no labored argument to sub stantiate it. Without that state they can not win, as the figures show. With it, de feat would be piactleaily out of the ques tion. The pretense that Ohio can be uiado a Democratic state this year is idle. Hopes based on that idea will be shattered. The state has never failed to vote fur Republi can candidates in Presidential elections. It has occasionally been carried by the Democrats in off years, but as regularly as the quadrennial contests have taken Tdaee it has returned to its allegiance. New York, on the contrary, when not over whelmingly Democratic, has always been •lose, and since the war it has been car ried twice by Democrats in Presidential years. Nothing but the unpopularity of Mr. Greeley with the party whose candi date he was prevented tho slate from de claring against Grantism In 1872 as vehe mently as it did in 1876. In no previous contest has the possession of New York been of such vital importance to the Dem ocrats as now, for at no other election in twenty-five years have they had a certain ty of enough votes elsewhere to elect their candidates even IT they did carry that state. This year th9y have that certain ty. New York is the one state which the Democrats must make sure of carrying. No party ever found itself confronted on the eve of a national election with a more simple problem. By concentrating their efforts in that direction they can settle the question on ground of their own choosing, and of which they will oe in possession at the opening as well ss tiie closing of the campaign. Invisible Architecture in a New Eng land Parsonage. “Yes,” she said, “our children are mar ried and gone, and my husband and I sit by our winter fire much as we did before the little ones came to widen the circle. Life is something like a spiral staircase; we are all tiie time coming around over tne spot we started from, only one degree fur ther up the stairs.” “lliat is a pretty illustration,” remark ed her friend, musingly, gazing into the glowing coals which radiated a pleasant heat from the many-windowed stove. “You know ve cannot stop toiling up the Bill, though.” “Surely we cannot, and for myself I don’t find fault with that necessity provid ed the advance in life is not attended with calamity or suffering, for I have had my share of thht. Not long since my health utterly bioke cown. My system was full of malaria. My digestion became thor oughly disordered and my nerves were in a wretched state.

The disease—which seemed to be weakness of all the vital orgaus—progress ed until I had several attacks whieh my physicians pronounced to be acute conges tion of the stomach. The last or these was a desperate struggle and I was given up to die. As the crisis had partially passed, my husband heard of the merits of PAR KER’S TONIC as an invigorant in just such cases as mine. I took it and felt its good effects at once. It appeared to per vade ray body, as though the blessing of new life had coine to me.
