Thi food is Ir." Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People, which are now known and used the
w.rld over in North and Smth. America,
K.tiirlatid and the Knelish provinces, Canada,
Iticiia,Jv.AtrHa.France. They are sowidely
known and tlieir excellent effects in nerve
buil lin? so much talked about both here and
Ml.rrn-l. that it is not necessary for me to en
large further on the subject. But I can as
sure you the medical profession everywhere
are very elad indeed to Kvail themselves of
this nerve food, so scientifically compounded,
and that they use it very largely in their
prs'tice."
This was a conversation recently had be
tween our reporter and a noted local physi
cian, whose opinion is very highly regarded in
medical cirH-s. and it furnishes a clue fir
thousands who are suSerine durine these
snuinK-r months from weakened nervous
l.tree.
To shew the remits of this nerve food on a
special case, to prove the points above made,
our reporter made the following interview :
Henrv tiehrke is a thrifty and prosperous
Oertnaii farmer living four miles south of
I n. in this (Adajr county. Mo. Mr.
Ohrke has a valaahle farm and he has been
a rident of the county for years. He is very
well-known herealouts and well respected
wherever he is known. La week a reporter
of the Journal stopped at Mr. Gehrke's and
while there became much interested in Mrs.
Oehrke'a account of the benefit she bad not
lone since experienced from the ose of Pr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Me
said she wanted everybody to know w hat a
treat medicine these pill are, but as so many
people are praising, them now-a-days, she
nil-Jlv douUeil whether her testimony
could add anything to what others had al
ready said of them. Her only reason for
talking for publication aliout Piuk Pills was
that the people of Adair and nciehloring
counties mitrht he convinced, if any doubted,
that oft-published testimonials concerning
Pink Pills were genuine statements from the
lips of persons who have lieen lienctited by
the use of them. Speaking of her own in
teresting experience, Mrs. tiehrke said :
" A linle over a year ago I was completely
broken down. I tad been taking medicine
from a doctor but grew worse and worse un
til I could scarcely go about at all. The
least exertion or the mere bending of my
bodr would cause me to have smothering
spells, and the suffering was terrible. I
thought it was caused bv my heart. When
everything else had failed to relieve me and
I had given op all hopes of ever being any
thing but a helpless invalid, I chanced to
read some testimonials in the Farm, Fitld
andFirende. also in the Chicago Jntrr-Ocetin.
and the suffering of the people who made
the statements were so nearly like the suf
fering I had endured that when I read that
ther were so greatly benefited by the use of
I Williams' Jink Pills for Pale People, I
did not hesitate to go at once and purchase
two boxes. I took them according to di
rections and before the first box was used I
felt a good bit letter. P.eally the first dose
convinced me that it was great remedy.
Before the two boxes were used up I sent
my husband after three more boxes, so I
would not be without them. When I had
used these three boxes I felt like a different
woman and thoneht I was almost cured.
"Since that time I have been taking them
whenever I began to feel badly. When I
U-gan taking Ir. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People, I weiehed only 113 pounds and
after I had been using the medicine for about
six months I weighed 122 pounds. I have
had a pood appetite ever since I commenced
taking Pink Pills and instead of mincing
along, picking such food as I could eat even
with an eflort, I eat most anything that
comes on the table. Iam not the invalid I
was. I do not have to l waited upon now
as if I was a helpless child, but I work all
the time, doing the housework and ironing
and working in the garden without that
dreadful fetling which comes over a person
w hen they are afraid they are going to have
one of those spells that I used to have,
"Work dou't hurt me any more. I lion
estlv believe that had it not been for Ir.
Williams' Pink Pills I wonld now be in my
grave. I still have what the doctor calls bil
ious colic but the Pink Pills have made me
much better and the spells are not so frequent
and are nothing likeas painful as before I be
gan to ne them. I would not be witliout the
Pink Pills for that disease alone under any
circumstances to say nothing of the other dis
eases for which they are especially recom
mended. I tak pleasure in telling my neigh
bors the benefits I ha ve received from I)r. Wil
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and know
of several who hare taken my advice and
have been greatly benefited bv them."

Sixteen to One.
Mint Director Prton has made the
following simple and comprehensive
t-Uitenient in regard to the coinage ra
tio 1 n't ween gold and silver in response
to frequent inquiries on that point
All standard silver dollars coined by
the mints of the United States since
the passage of the act of January IS,
lv7, have been coined in the ratio of
I to l..!f4, generally called the ratio
of I to IS 15.iiVs4 being nearly 16.
Still, to reach accurate results, the
former and not the latter figure must
lie used in calculation. The ratio is
obtained in tiiis way:
The silver dollar contains S71.25
grains of pure silver and the gold dol
lar 23. ! grains of pure gold. If you
divide 371.2-1 by 23.22 you will get the
ratio of weight let ween a gold dollar
and a silver dollar that is, 15.ft.SS4. It
is true that to lie on a par with gold,
silver would (at our ratio) be worth
$1.2?29. The reason is this: A gold
dollar contains 23.22 grains of pure
gold. In an ounce, or 4-0 grains of
gold there are as many dollars as
23.22 is contained times in 4-SO, or one
ounce. If you divide 4S0 by 23.22 you
p-t ?20.C7, the number of dollars that
can lie coined out of an ounce of pure
gold; in other words the money
equivalent to one ounce of gold
orofll.Ht ounces of silver at the
ratio of 1 to M.fW. Now, if 15.9ss4
ounces of silver be worth $20.67, one
ounce will be worth fl.252J, as you can
prove by simple division. The same
result is obtained by dividing 4s(i
grnins or one ounce of silver by 371.21,
the numUr of grains of pure silver in
:i standard silver dollar, at the ratio of
1 t 1".4, which gives ?1.2i,2:.
Sixt-":i o:i'iC'- of j.:r silver will
c 'i'i a Ktt'.e more than omc ounce of
gui l: M.vs oi!T"nv of silver will coin

ojiiees by ::7i.2" grains. Tiie operation
i as f..'1-iws: M.Ji-is-1, multiplied by
40, divided by 371.21, equals 20.r74.
It is not true that sixteen minces of
.".lver will coin on'y fl'J.sO at the ratio
.f 1 to l't.
As will ln seen alove, one ounce of
silver will coin ?1.2!'2!1. Multiplying

ltiake th? same result in another way;

.Mr. Preston has also furnished an-
wers to the following important ques
tions: Firt What is meant by the free
-oinage of silver?
Answer The right of individuals to
deposit standard silver in any amount
at the mints and have it coined into
full Ugtil tender coins.
Second WL-at is meant by the ratio
rK. tol?
Answer The ratio in coinage of 16
to 1 means that sixteen ounce of pure
silver coined shall have the same value
as one ounce of pure gold coined,
namely, f 20 07.
Third What is meant by bimetallism?
Answer The unlimited coinage of
lioth gold and silver, 1 private ac
enunt, into full legal tender coin..
Fourth What is meant by single
standard, gold or silver?
Answer That only oue metal shall
le coined on private account into full
Vgal tender coins, and that only the
favored metal sliall be coined without
limit.
A Pretty Story-
An amusing story of ingenuous child
hood is told by a former maid-of-honor
in the service of Queen Victoria. A
little niece of hers visited her one day
at the court. ThelQueen caught sight
of the child, and, pleased with her in
nocent prattle, asked the lady-in-waiting
to have the little visitor come to
luncheon some day atthe palace.
The child was taken on the appoint
ed day to the royal table. While quite
unconscious of the honor conferred
upon her, she was quiet and well-lie-haved,
and not inclined to talk n
necessarily. During the luncheon
chicken was served. The child ate her
portion with a keen relish, and was
careful in the use of knife and fork.
Suddenly she stared at the Queen with
eyes like round towers. Then pointing
her small finger in the direction of her
Majesty, she exclaimed with a tone of
reproof.
"O pigrgie, piggie !"
The Queeu had taken one of the chick
en bones quite delicately in her fingers
but the carefully trained child, who
had lieen warned in the nursery that
this was a breach of propriety in young
people, could not refrain from repeat
ing an expression that she had often
heard her goverue ue. Every one
at the table was startled, but the Queen
at once led in the laughter, enjoying
quite keenly the joke at her own ex
euse. Youth's Companion.

A Mighty Big Tree.
"Yes, sir; they have the greatest tim
ber on earth up in Humboldt county !"
exclaimed Sam MeConaghy, of the
United States Mint, to a Post man.
"The trees up there are so big well,
I'm not going to tell you how big they
are because you wouldn't believe it.
Don't know as I would believe it my
self, though I do believe a whole lot I
telL Rut just to give you an idea, now
they cut down one tree up there that
made enough lumber, pickets and shin
gles to build a whole town and fence it,
and they've still got logs enough left to
put up a building as big as the Palace
Hotel.
"The liutt of the tree was hollow, too,
for about fifty feet, aud as it fell right
square across a deep gulch they used it
for a bridge. Four horse teams drive
through it. By a little hewing out they
can ni-ke a foot-path on each side of
the wagon road through it. That tree
was so tall that when they commenced
cutting it up they ha to make two
camps one at each end for it was too
far for the men working on the top to
walk back at night. I don't know
what they would have done if several
hundred feet hadn't been broken off at
the top by the elements centuries ago."
"Hut that was a small tree compared
to the one "
MeConaghy is telling himself about
that other tree.

The circus announced itself iu the
good old way weeks lieforehand by the
vast posters of former days and by a
profusion of small bills which fell up
on the village as from the clouds, and
left it littered everywhere with their
festive pink. They prophesied it by
a name borne by the first circus I ever
saw, which was also an animal show,
but the animals must have all died
during the fifty years past, for there is
now no menagerie attached to it. I
did not know this when I heard the
band braying through the streets of
the village ou the morning of the per
formance, and for me the mangy old
camels and the pimpled elephants of
yore led the procession through accom
panying ranks of boys who have most
ly been iu their graves for half a life
time, the distracted ostrich thrust an
advertising neck through the top of
the cage, and the lion roared to him
self in the darkness of his moving pris
on. I felt the old thrill of excitement,
the vain hoje of something preterna
tional and impossible, and I do not
know what could have kept me from
that circus, a soon as I had done
lunch. My heart rose at sight of the
large tent (which was yet so very little
in comparison with the tents of the
three-ring and two-platform circuses;)
the alluring and illusory side shows of
fat women and lean men; the horses
tethered in the background and stamp
ing under the fly-bites; the old, weather-beaten
grand chariot which
looked l'.ke the ghost of the grand
chariot which used to drag me captive
in its triumph; and the canvas shel
ters wht re the cooks were already at
work over their kettles on the evening
meal of the circus folk.
Throughout the jicrformanee at this
circus I was troubled by a curious
question, whether it were really of the
same moral and material grandeur as
the circuses it brought to memory, or
whether these were thin and slight
too. We all know how the places of
our childhood, the height, the distan
ces, shrink and dwindle when we go
buck to them, and to it pos.-ll.le that
I had bt- deceived in the splendor of
my early circuses? Tiie doubt was
painful, hut I was forced to own that
tiiere ni!;jht tie more truth in it than
in a blind fealty to their rememliered
magnificence. Very likely tire-uses
have grown not only iu size but in the
richness and variety of their entertain
ments, and I was sjioiled for the sim
ple joys of this. But I could see no re
flection of my dissatisfaction on the
young faces around me, and I must
confess that there was at least so much
of the circus that I left when it was
half over. I meant to go into the side
shows and see the fat woman and the
living skeleton, and take the giant by
the hand and the arm'ess man by his
friendly biot, if I might oe so honored.
But I did none of these things, and 1
am willi eg to lielieve the fault was iu
me, if I was disappointed in the cir
cus. It was I who had shrunk and
dwindled and not it- To real boys it
was still the size of the firmament, and
was a world of wonders and delights.
At least I can recognize this fact now,
and can rejoice in the jieaceful progress
all over the country of the simple cir
cuses which the towns never see, but
which render the summer fairer and
brighter to the unspoiled eyes and
hearts they appeal to. I hope it will
be long liefore they cease to fiud profit
in the pleasure they give. Harper's
Weekly.

Mark Twain gave the following'anec-d-teof
Arlemus) Ward in one of his
best lectures:
As Artemus was once traveling in
the can, dreading to be bored, and
filing miserable, a man approached
him, sat down, and said :
"Did you hear that last thing of
Horace Greeley's?"
"Gret ley, Greeley," said Artemus
"Horace Greeley ? Who is he ?"
The man was quiet about five min
utes. Very soon he said :
"George Francis Train is kicking up
a good deal of a row over in England ;
do you think they will put him in a
bastile?"
"Train, Train, George Francis Train,"
said Artemus, solemnly; "I never
heard of him."
This ignorance kept the roan quiet
for fifteen minutes, then he said :
"What do you think about General
Grant's chances for the presidency?
Do you think they will run him?"
"Grant, Grant? Hang it man," said
Artemus, "you appear to know more
strangers than any one I ever saw."
The man was furious ; he walked up
the car, but at last came back and said :
"You confonded ignoramus ! did you
ever hear of Adam?"
Artemus looked up and said :
"What was his other name?"

Penniylvania'i Great University.
Di'partment of Dentistry .
The alumni and friends of the De
partment of Dentistry will learn with
satisfaction that the plans for the uew
building which is to be the future home
of the department are rapidly being
completed, aud there is good reason to
expect that within a few weeks ground
will be broken for its construction.
The plot of ground upon which the
new building is to be erected is located
at the intersection of Locust and Thirty-third
Streets, in close relation to
Franklin Field. The plans which
were finally decided upon am accept
ed by the Board of Trustees are the re
sult of much study and careful prepar
ation. As a preliminary step, aud
with the end in view of securing a sat
isfactory building, a committee of the
dental faculty was sent, iu January of
the present year, to make a study of
the arc hitectural and educational feat
ures of the principal dental 'schools of
this country. Eleven of the most
prominent colleges were visited and
carefully studied with the result that a
nuis of valuable data was obtained
and much of it utilized with suitable
modifications, iu meeting the needs of
our own Dental Ivpurtiuent.
Tne central motive of the undertak
ing was that, as a dental educational
plant, it should be the best of its kind.
This involved the development and
expansion of the educational system of
the Department of Dentistry along
lines which would place it (U tinitely
upon a University plane, and the erec
tion of a building which in its con
struction and appointments would ad
equately provide for the educational
plan projected.
The rapidly increasing development
of a University spirit and the interest
manifested throughout the whole stu
dent body in University life have len
especially noticeable during the past
season. As factors iu the cultivation
of a common University interest the
the social features of Houston Hall and
the athletic relationships are to be es
pecially noted. The near completion
of a large portion of the Dormitory
buildings can be safely counted upon
as another and important factor iu
strengthening the bonds which unite
students of all departments, centraliz
ing their interest iu and loyalty to the
University as a whole.
In these features of University life
the deutal student is a participant up
on equal terms with the students
of all of the other departments;
when he matriculates he becomes not
only a student of the Department of
Dentistry, but a member of the Uni
versity family, with all the privileges
and obligations which appertain to
that relation.
The development of the dental school
into a closer University relationship
and its elevation to a University plane
means, necessarily, a progressive ad
vancement of its educatioual standards
aud requirements. This means, also,
for the graduate of the Department of
Dentistry, that, as related to Lis life
work, his education shall be as broad
aud his training as thorough as that
required of the graduate of any other
professional department of the Univer
sity, and for the accomplishment of
this purpose a building such as is con
templated is an imperative necessity.
Facilities for the expansion of the
curriculum and improvement in meth
ods of instruction will be amply af
forded by the new building, which has
been carefully planned for the future
growth of the school, and based upon
a maximum accommodation for five
hundred students. The structure will
consist of two parallel rectangular
buildings, the larger facing toward
Locust Street, with a frontage of 180
feet and 45 feet depth; the smaller
building will be directly in the rear
and connected with the larger by a
stair-case wing which connecta all
floors and unites both buildings at
their middle.
The main building will liave two
upper floors and a basement- The Op
erative Clinic room will occupy the
entire upper floor and will accommo
date somewhat more than one hun
dred chairs. The clinic room baa
been planned with special reference to
thorough lighting and the windows
are so arranged that every operator
will have an abundance of light for bis
work.
On the first floor will be the general
mechanical laboratory, plaster and
molding rooms, vulcanizing room, an
examining room for patients, the ad
ministration oftiees, special laboratories
and class-rooms for instruction and
practice, in technic work, the extract
ing room and impression room.
In the basement will be a large as
sembly room for the exclusive us of
student., hat and coat room, instru
ment lockers, lavatories, bicycle room,
metallurgical room, crown-and-bridge
work room, and a special clinical room
to Lie fitted as a model dental oilice for
the use of clinical instructors.
The principal room in the wing
building will lie the lecture amphi
theater, which will seat five hundred.
In addition to the amphitheater the
wing will furnish laboratories for his
tological and bacteriological work, the
library and museum, janitor's apart
ments, and the laundry.
The building will be constructed of
hard brick, similar to the Harrison
Laboratory of Chemistry, but orna
mented with red terra-cotta. The ex
terior will be somewhat suggestive of
the style of the dormitories.
The securing of a building that so
fully meets all of the present needs of
the Department and makes such am
ple provision for its future growth is
au event which marks a new era in its
development- And as every one of its
alumni will hail with enthusiasm this
new step forward let us also hope that
each will give his support to the effort
being made to carry the educational
standard of his Alma Mater onward to
greater success.
In a recent letter to the manufactur
ers Mr. V. F. benjamin, editor of the
Spectator, Knslifcrd, N. Y., says: "It
may be a pleasure to know the high
esteem in which Chamberlain's medi
cines are held by the people of your
own State, where they must lie best
known. Au aunt of mine, who resides
at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit me
a few years since, and before leaving
home wrote me, asking me if they
were sold here, stating if they were not
she would bring a quantity with her,
as she did not like to be without
them." The medicines referred to are
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, famous
for its cures of colds aud croup; Cham
berlain's Pain Balm for rheumatism,
lame back, pains in the side and chest,
'. and Chamlierlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Eemedy for bowel com

in constant use in Iowa for almost a
quarter of a century. The people have
learned that they are articles of great
worth and merit, and unequaled by

Dying From Ha: Bites.
IIicksville, O., Aug. 19. Mrs. D. C.
Lackey, of near Antwerp, wa fatally
bitten by rats. She heard a commotion
in her chicken house late last night, and
went to learn the cause. She had but
entered the door when no less than 25
rats sprang at her. Her young son came
to her rescue, and it was not until he had
been bitten several times that he suc
ceeded in driving the rodents away.
Mrs. Lackey's agony is frightful and she
can not live. Young Lackey will recover.

F the thousands of letters re
ceived from women all over
the world by Mrs. Pinkham,
not one is given to the public unless
by the wish of the writer. Thus
absolute confidence is established
between Mrs. Pinkham and her
army of patients ; and she freely
solicits a letter Irom any woman,
rich or poor, who is in ill health or
ailing".
In the case of Mary E. Campbell
of Albion, Noble Co., Ind., her suf
fering was so severe, her relief so
suddenly realized, and her grati
tude so great, that she wishes the
circumstances published, in the
hope that others may be benefited
thereby. She says :
"My physician told me I had
dropsy and falling of the womb.
My stomach and bowels were so
bloated I could not get a fill breath.
My face and hands were bloated
badly. I had that dreadful bearing
down pain, backache, palpitation ot
the heart and nervousness.
" One of my physicians told me I
had something growing in my
stomach ; and the medicine that I- took gave me relief only for a short
time. I thought I must die. I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and it worked like a charm
"After taking the first bottle I could walk across the street; now
am well. I advise all my friends to take it, for it is surely the
I
most wonderful medicine for female ills in the world.
Mary
I feel that my cure is miraculous.'
E. Campbell, Albion, Noble Co., Ind.
Never in the history of medicine has the demand for one particular remedy for female diseases equalled
that attained by Ljdia E. Tiukbjm's Vegetable Compound, and never in the history of Mrs. Pinkham's
wonderful Compound has the demand for it been so great as it is to-day. Druggists say it is wonderful.
From Maine to California, from the Gulf to the St. Lawrence, come the glad tidings of woman's suffer-
ing relieved by it. All intelligent women now acknowledge its reliability.
