Dyspepsia and Liver Trouble “For many years I suffered almost con¬ stantly with dyspepsia complicated with liver complaint.

The Sizes of Pearls. Pearls are named according to their size. The very large are called para¬ gon pearls; when the size of a cherry, cherry pearls; medium are called piece pearls; smallest, dust pi-arls; while badly formed specimens are known as baroques. The value of pearls varies, of course, with the quality and general colors, but the piece, seed, and dust pearls always have a market price, The cherry and paragon are sold on ;an entirely different basis. If many fine ones are on the market at a time, they made be had at reasonable rates. Some years they bring almost any price. The last two years, especially, the dealers say, there has been a great scarcity of fine pearls, although there is no falling off in the supply of the small stuff. When a pearl exceeds one karat in weight it is sold separately. Under that weight they are sold in parcels, and become less valuable as they be¬ come smaller. The smallest dust pearls collected average about five thousand to the Troy ounce, and are at present rated at about nine dollars an ounce. If, on the contrary, one paragon weighing an ounce, or one hundred and fifty carats, was on sale it would bring any amount from thirty thousand to two hundred thousand dollars, according to quality. .REGAINED HEALTH. Gratifying Letters to Mrs. Pink- iiam Prom Happy Women. “I Owe You My Izife.” Mrs. E. Woolhiskr, Mills, Neb., writes: “Dear Mrs. Pinkham: — I owe my life to your Vegetable Compound. The doctors said 1 had consumption and nothing could be done for me. My menstruation had stopped and they said my blood was turning to water. I had several doctors. They all said I could not live. I began the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it helped me right away; menses returned and I have gained in weight. I have better health than I have had for years. It is wonderful what your Com¬ pound has done forme.” “I Feel Like a New Person.” Mrs. Geo. Leach, 1009 Belle St., Alton, Ill., writes: “ Before I began to take your Vege¬ table Compound I was a great sufferer from womb trouble. Menses would ap¬ pear two and three times in a month, causing me to be so weak I could not stand. I could neither sleep nor eat, and looked so badly my friends hardly knew me. “ I took doctor’s medicine but did not derive much benefit from it. My drug¬ gist gave me one of your little books, and after reading it I decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com¬ pound. I feel like a new person. I would not give your Compound for all the doctors’ medicine in the world. I can not praise it enough.” MONEY A CREATION OF LAW. The Falsehoods of the Goltl Tru«t*« Free Literature?. The gold trust is flooding the coun¬ try with false literature. There is not a fetish worshiper of gold, from Sher¬ man down to little Eckels, who does not assume that bullion is money and aigue that the most costly bullion is the only material fit for coinage. Some of the most distinguished hypo¬ crites or financial Idiots, as the Silver Knight-Watchiftan classifies ex-Presi- dent Harrison, ex-President Cleveland and ihe loquacious Gage, speak of the intrinsic value of gold. If they are really so ignorant that they do not know that the intrinsic qualities of a ■thing do not constitute Its value, they must admit that everything having in¬ trinsic qualities will always be of the same value so long as it possesses the ftame intrinsic qualities, and that there can be no fluctuation in the price or value of commodities having intrinsic qualities. It is only those blind teach- ers who are employed for gold monop¬ oly that believe value is intrinsic in anything. The great masses of the people un- derstand this question very much bet¬ ter. They recognize the fact that the value of a thing is what somebody will give for it; in other words, it. is what it win fetch. They understand very well that the price or value of a thing is fixed and determined when two par- ties exchange a commodity for money or one commodity for another; and that value is the comparative worth of the two articles as estimated by the buyer and seller in making a contract. In the board of brokers the value of a railroad stock is determined from day to day by what the buyer will give and what the seller will take. When tho minds of the buyer and seller come to- gether the price or value of a thing i 3 determined. This being the ease it is insulting the good sense of intelligent people for the great hypocrites of the sold standard to assume and declare tllat the value of gold is intrinsic, which is equivalent to saying that if all the mountains were gold an ounce of gold would buy the same amount of wheat as it now will. It would be well if the country would treat these hypo¬ critical or idiotic teachers occasionally to a cold bath and bring them to their senses. Free Coinage of Silver. The phrase “free coinage” of silver has no reference to the charges at the mint on bullion deposited for coinage, says the Silver Knight-Watchman. Ordinarily the mints of the civilized world have charged'' for converting bullion into coin a sufficient amount to pay the absolute cost. This charge is ordinarily made for melting, refining and preparing bullion for coinage. There is sometimes a profit also in the alloy used, the object being to make the mint self-sustaining. There has al- ways been a strong objection to mak- ing a charge for stamping or coining tne rne ' La ' after it has been prepared for that purpose. When no charge is made for the stamp and coinage it is called “free coinage,” and inasmuch as there has been generally no charge in this country for stamping and coining either gold or silver the term free coinage can be properly used. In com¬ mon parlance we coinage when a person can take his bullion to the mint and have it coined into stand¬ ard money without any charge for the actual coinage, and only a sufficient charge for preparing the bullion for coinage to pay actual expenses. The popular use of the phrase “free coinage of silver” means the unlimited coinage on terms of exact equality with the conditions applied to the coinage of gold—nothing more and nothing less. A person now having gold may take it to the mint and have it coined afier it is prepared for coinage with¬ out charge. He will be charged for melting and refining, and the govern¬ ment may also make something on the alloy, but^we call it “free coinage” of gold. All we ask for silver is the same kind of “free coinage,” which is un¬ limited coinage of the two metals at the ratio of 16 to 1 without discrimina¬ tion against either. Municipal Ownership. The employes of the Brooklyn Bridge corporation have short hours, fair wages, and free uniforms. This is mu¬ nicipal ownership, The employes of the Manhattan elevated have long hours, scanty wages, and have to pay high prices for their uniforms. This is private ownership, These two eom- pauies are fairly illustrative of sim¬ ilarly opposed conditions the world over, and the people are almost con- vinced. Scratch an opponent of mu- nicipal ownership and you find an in¬ terested or salaried representative of monopoly. But the people will soon awaken and claim their own.—Charles S. White in American Craftsman. With the witnesses who were sum¬ moned to testify in the Hanna bribery case, silence is golden.—Phoenix Ga¬ zette.

She had entirely re¬ covered from the illness which kept her bedfast much of the time for five or six years past, and says her recovery is due to that well-known remedy. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Mrs. Weaver is fifty-six years old, and bus lived in Bushnell nearly thirty and years. She is of unquestionable veracity un¬ blemished reputation. The story of hor re¬ covery Is interesting. She says: “I suffered for five or six years with the trouble that comes to women at this time of my life. I was much weakened, was un¬ able much 6f the time to do my own work, and suffered beyond my power to describe. I was downhearted and melancholy. “I took many different medicines, Infnct, I took medicine all the time, but nothing seemed to do me any good. “I read about Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Palo Toople, and some of rav friends recommended them highly.
