Worn-out,

Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription.
It builds them up. It’s a powerful,
restorative tonic, or strength-giver
—free from alcohol and injurious
drags. The entire system is re
newed and invigorated. It im
proves digestion, enriches tho blood,
dispels aches and pains, gives re
freshing sleep, and restores flesh and
strength. As a soothing nervine, it
•Hays and subdues hysteria, spasms,
and all the nervous symptoms com
monly attendant upon functional
and organic disease. It’s tho only
r ranieed medicine for women.
docs what is promised — or it
asks nothing. It giveB satisfaction,
in every case, or tho money paid
for it is refunded.
That’s the way its makers prove
their faith in it. Contains no alco
hol to inebriate ; no syrup or sugar
to derange digestion ; a legitimate
■medicine, not a beverage. Purely
vegetable and perfectly harmless in
any condition of tho system.
This is the way
with the Ball corset: if you
want ease and shapeliness,
you buy it—but you don’t
keep it unless you like it.
After two or three weeks’
wear, you can return it and
have your money.
Comfort isn’t all of it
though. Soft Eyelets, and
"bones” that can’t break or
kink—Ball’s corsets have
both of these.

MAJOR SPEER WRITES
HIS VIEWS ON THE ALL IMPORTANT
FINANCIAL QUESTION.
lie Favor. Coins Hack to the Old Way,
Ruling National Hank, oat and Allowing
■Stats Hank. to I.ioe Three Dol
lar# for One.
The Timks-Rkcoriikk:—We, that is to
say, three ladies and three gentlemen,
decided to brave the perils of the “deep
blue Bea” (but the sea is green), on a
voyage to New York, and thereby escape
the dust and heat of summer travel by
rail. We had a delightful time, barring
the enforced tribute to old Neptune,
while none of the party would have flat
tered him for bis trident. Yet perforce
with wry faces and ono accord they
bowed to his power. And here comes
up the oft repeated question, what is it
that makes one sea sick? Is it the salt
water, or the motion of the vessel? If it
was the motion of the vessel, then why
not the motion of cars mako ono sick
If salt water, why does it not mako one
sick when bathing on tho sea shore?
is claimed by the knowing ones that it is
caused by the absence of rest for the eye,
Tlio eye, like Noah’s dove that “found
no rest for tho sole of her foot.” We
know of a fact, “to tho faint-hearted,
who go down to soa in ships, there is
sorrow on tho sea, it cannot bo quiet;
whoso waters cast up miro and dirt."
Tbcro is a fortuno in storo for the man
who discovers a preventive for soa sick
ness.
Tho third day ont on our voyage, as
the sun went down behind the Jersey
Hats, and sweet musio was wafted
upon the umbient air from the shore,
wo forgot our sorrows of the sea in tho
beautiful vision that mot our gaze, at
tho lowor and upper bay, and the level
lands, and the entrance into the city il
lumined by thousands of lights on sea
and land. It was said and believed by
many in 1S00, that grass would grow in
the streets of New York City, and it
would bo given over to tho owls and
bats for an habitation, when tho South
seceded from tho union. But a greater
calamity Is upon the city now than se
cession. The agitation of tho silver bill
has dono more harm than secession and
monoy has gone into hiding like the fid
dlers upon the beach, innumerable as tho
leaves ;of Vallombros, upon the least
disturbance aro gone into their holes,
and pulled their boles in after them,
leaving not a vestige behind. So has
money gono into the safo deposits of
Now York to remain until the tinkering
on finances by the solans is over. The
words “to let” that staros you in tho
face from every block, and nearly every
house in every block in tho city, with
now and then tho legend, “This houso
is closed by the Sheriff," tells tbe tale
moro potently than tho lamentations
of Jeremiah to the ancient Jowb,
In ray judgement It is not moro silver
that wo wnnt, for wo have moro silver
now than the people willingly take, but
a silver dollar that is equal in value to
tbe gold dollar. Either put moro silvor
in the silver dollar or put less gold in the
gold dollar. “If the iron be blunt and
ho do not whet the edge, then must he
put to moro strength." It is hardly fair
to ask the creditor to Lake eighty cents
in the dollar when you are able to pay
him in full. Let ua bo just, though tbe
heavens fall.
Now If wo wero a nation to ourselves
and had no commerce with other na
tlona tlion It would not matter. But
we cannot mako other nations take our
silver only at its bullion value.
(SThe “flat” of tbegovornment stops as
the vessel passes over tho bar In New
York bay, and what was reckoned on
change as one dollar shrinks to eighty
cents of uncurrent money, hence the
seventy millions of gold coin recently
shippod to Europe to meet the balances
in trade.
Tbe remedy for the present distress to
my mind is for us to go back to the old
system. Abolish the national banks.
Let tho state banks issue hills, for every
dollar In coin, three dollars in bills.
Hedge the banks with strong laws and
severe penalties for their violations,
then the currency will not all fiow to
New York at the behe«tof a few manip
ulators in Wall street, as the conjestion
of all the blood '.to tho head, but each
state will have its quota to transact its
business with, and Instead of having
twenty-two dollars per capita as now,
we will have over fifty dollars.
I know that some will bo horrified at
the Idea, and will say that they want no
"wild cat banks,” that they wants cur
rency that is good from New York to
Texas, This is the old cry. We do not
propose wild cat money,but good money,
cheap money for we will never have
cheap money until we go hack to the
old way, of good collecting laws, and
state issues, then the hanks will leutl
their money at 7 per cent, per annum,
and make more clear profit than under
the present system. M. Speer.
WATSON'S WIDE MOUTH
Turns Loose and Deals Judge Crisp an Un
warranted Blow.
Wadley, Ga., July 9.—A citizen of
Wadley who heard Tom Watson's
speech at Kite on last Saturday says the
manner in which Watson criticised
Amos Cummings’ letter on Auderson-
ville left an unpleasant impression of
Judge Crisp. Watson says Cummings
went to no hotel hut was the guest of
Crisp, and while at hi- home wrote the
Andersonville letter.
Watson further added that Judge
Crisp had not denounced the letter.
Watson was outspoken in opposlti jn
to Judge Crisp for speaker,saying he op
posed Barnes because he did not accept
the St. Louis platform and it would be
inconsistent for him to support Judge
Crip.
Harry Brown of the Alliance Farmer
is a strong advocate of Judge Crisp. But
It seems Watson Is a stricterallianceman
than the editor of the alliance organ.
How loyal some new converts are!
Counterfeiters Caught.
Cordele, Ga., July 9.—0. A. Avant,
United States deputy marshal, passed
through Cordele this afternoon with
two prisoners captured last night near
Dakota, where they have been counter
feiting for two or three weeks. They
had been moulding and passing off dimes
and dollar coins. The moulds and some
coin wero secured when the capture was
made.

day reported a net balance in the treas

silver coin and of deposits in national

Little Early Risers don’t gripe, cause
nausea or pain, which accounts for their
popularity. The Davenport Drug Com
pany says they would not run a drug
store without these little pills.
There is talk at Elberton of building a
cotton factory on the installment plan,
