BLIND GUIDES.
Blindness li one of the saddest alsfort
unes that can befall human being. But
there is a time when bllndnens stamps the
blind as a criminal. That time is when
the blind man undertakes leadership. Im
agine the situation.
Weak and suffering; women, blind as to
their own needs, put their hands in confi-
dence Into the hand of otne self styled
lc adcr, w Ith the result that both fall into the
ditch of failure, and she, poor thltifr, ntag
gets on a few more paces only to fall into
the last ditch, the house appointed for
all living."
AN F.XPKRIENCKD KXPHRT KHBDhD.
Let us drop all figures of speech and face
the ficti frankly. Here are thouMiids of
people sufiritig from disease of one form
or another. The cry of the sufferer is for
sonic one to lead him out of this desert of
disease into the promised land of health.
Here is Dr. K. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.Y..
who has a record of more than a quarter of
a million of cases and 98 out of every hun
dred led to perfrct health. An experience
of thirty years as chief consulting physi
cian to the Invalid' Hotel nnd Surfrlcal
Institute, at Huffalo, N. Y., guarantees him
to be familiar with every phase and form
of disease.
But consumption! Is that cured too by
Dr. Tierce's medicines? Among the hope
less (so called) cases were those who had
the night sweats, the hectic flush, the hack
ing cough, the racked lungs, and the ema
ciated, or wasted body, which are accepted
symptoms of consumption. Their home
physicians said they had consumption.
They also said that their days were num
bered. Yet these same people treated
years ago, have lost the night sweats, lost
the lung pains, lost the cough, have re
gained their normal weight, and are living1
right along in the hearty enjoyment of a
healthy, happy life. They eat well, sleep
well, and enjoy life. Perhaps they are not
cured. Perhaps their days are numbered.
But if the number is three score and ten
and they live a life
FULL OP HKAXVTIIY ENJOYMENT,
life might as well end by consumption as
bv any other disease. Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery has produced such re
lulls in thousands of cases.
Mr. John O Born, 40J0 Liberty Av e , rittsburg.
Pn , writes " Some thirty months ro I said to
my wife, 'I don t want to keep nn thing from
you, I must tell ynei I am In the list stage of
consumption ' In December, 1896 1 commenced
taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery I

after, but now I can fat in thing I am also
irc-itlj relieved of that dlstrcsu; suffocation.
"Three months ajro I wis talking ton run in
the shop when another person, who overheard
me was greatly surprised tint I could speak so
loud, as for three years I could not speak above
a v. hlspcr "
" I had bronchitis for eighteen years and I was
treTtcd by three phvsiciins but ill fiilcil,"
wnies IMvid VVarUenluft, Hq , of bhocmnkeis

"Asvou know, ficv ears ago the doctors had
given nic up to die with consumption," writes
Mr. Il G. McKiiincy, of Dcepwatcr, I ayttte Co ,
V Va " I took treatment from Doctor R V.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Feb. 10. Tho movement of
prices on the Stock exchange had little
significance today as operations were
laigely conllned to tho dosing up of ton
tracts by thu professional element, There
was a continuation of realizing sales at
the opening In spite of tho tranquility
with which the latest news from South
Africa seemed to be accepted by the Lon
don market. Tim rally In the market ni
ter tho bank stntement appeared niado It
evident thnt part of tho selling had been
for short account In anticipation of an
unfavorable statement. Tho rally did not
mean necessarily that tho statement was
idi.sldered favorably but simply that tho
bears desired to cover their short con
tincts before the two hol'diys pending.
Tlicrownsmthoracuto weakness at times
In St. Paul. Mls-oiirl Paelllc, Western
t'nlon, llurltiigtou and Sugar. Tho move
nient of prices was rather erratic, but
tho net iluingo 011 the day nro small
mid irlved with tho majority on tho side
of losses, 1 bo c losing of tho market w is
strong nt the rnllv on short covering. As
a matter of fact, opinion on tho bank
statement wns confused and perpleved,
'1 he enormous loan expansion caused
iilnarr nioiit. In no single week during all
of last year did the lo 111 expansion reach
inooeidKi In the week ending Fohruiuv
last In loans were Inc leased Jl.'.lT.I.I'O,
due to the uetlvo flotation of new Indus
trial combinations tin 11 la full force. This
computes wltli fJl 1,,2 luo Increase this
Week. Sliieo Jiinu.iry 13 loans have been
IticHiised Jit l.il'itrfi, 1 nmpim d with an In
crease of $11117(10 In the correspnndl'ig
piilod of lust year. v. hen speculation and
company flotntlnii wns In full lido. It Is
suggested that some of the deposit no
counts which pnssod from tho banks to
the newlv orgnnl(d trust companies din
ing the couise of last year are now (om
Itlg beck to the bn.Us There Is nothing
111 tho itgiilar course of business or Fie "
lutlon to account for the recent gnat ex
tension of tho loan Item of the clearing
bouse bunks. Upturns of bank dealings
by tdcgiaph for llvo dr.vs to tho l'linn
dal Chionlde show a sharp falling off
nt tho four principal eastern cities and In
e leaves at Chicago and St. Louis In con
sole ruble, proportion, while at Now Or
leans the Increases over last your Is nearly
l'i over 1 ist year. At other cities tho ln
( reuse U over 10 rer rent. Tho Increase
In tho south is doubtless lnrgolv due to
tho activity In tho cotton inaiket and Is
suggestive of tho future demand upon
New York for funds from that section.
Hut the clearing house returns only servo
to perple tho problem of tho phenomenal
loan expansion of New York banks. To
tal sales, Hm.OuO shares The business In
bonds bus been on 11 fairly large scale
nnd tho tendency of price has been some
what mixed.
