FREE CURE FOR MEN. A Michigan Man Offers to Bend HlsIDls covery Free. Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened Mankind. There is always mora or less suspicion attached to anything that is offered fice hut sometimes a man so overflows with geuorosity that he cannot rest until his discovery Is known to tho world, in order that his fellow men may profit by what he has discovered. It is upon this principal that a resident of Kalamazoo, Mien., desires to send free to mankind a prescription which will euro them of any form of nervous debility ; relievo, them of all the doubt and uncertainty which such men are peculiarly liable to and restores tho organs to natural size and vigor. As it costs nothing to try the experiment it would seem that any man, suffering with the nervous troubles that usually attack men who never stopped to realize what might be the Dual result, ought to be deeply interested in a roniedy which will rostoro them to I uiutitn, strength and vigor, without wmcii : they continue to live an existent o of uutold I miserv. As tho remedy in question was the j remit of many years research as to what cuniliiiintion would be peculiarly effective in ro-toring T men the strength they need, it would seem that all luon Biiliui iiiy with any form of nervous weakness ought to writo for such n remedy at once. A request to H. U. Olds, Box 1712, Kalamazoo, Mich., staling that you are not sending fur tho prescription out of idle curiosity, but that you wish to mako use of the modlcinc by giving it a trial, will he answered promptly mid without evidence as to where information came from. he proscription Is sent free and although sen.e may wondor how Mr. Olds can ufTonl to give awuy his discovery, there Is no doubt, about tho offer being genuine Cut this out and send to Mr. Olds so that ho may know how you came to write him. 12-28-78t ORPHANS'- COURT SALE Vursttant to order of the Orphans' Court of th' coulity of Schuylkill, in tho CotuiminwcHlth of Punuaylvmita, the subscriber, administrator of the uftttite of Nelson lira ml on, lute of tlu tow ml Up of Knst Union, in the county of Schuylkill, deceased, will expose to sale by publfo vendue, on SATURDAY, 13th DAY OF FEBRUARY, next.nt ant' o'clock In, the afternoon, at tho Jiuhlio hou&e of lirael Applepftte, In the town of tlngtown, In the county of Schuylkill afore said.

Washington, Jan Theoomptrollei of the nurreuoy, Mr. Eokels, ynsterdaj gave his views upon the flmincial cnndl tlon of the oouutry to the house oouv mlttee on banking and currency. He vera, bills Introduced by members of the hotiM hod boen referred to Mr. Eckels for hi' i judgment, and he analyzed those, beside' ! glvlnj: his vIovts upon the money quostlor . iBireneral. ! Mr. Kokels said: "While there was uc doubt of the necosSHy for olutnges in Hit government's financial situation, the pub' 11c wm disposed to attribute too mijch ol the existing troubles to the lack of mone tary legislation. OHie'day was pftst when the volume of money was Its most Impor tant factor. Improved faollltles for trans portation and methods of exohango had lessened the Importance of a large volume of money. Improved credit was more Im portant. Tho first essential In this oouu try was the stability of puhllo credit Th apparent reluctance et the people of the United States to redeem their public obli gations was the chief cause of distrust. "The current redemption of the demand obligations of tha government is the ohlef problem of the treasury. So- far nl the contraction of the ourrsnoy is oon cornea, I do not think It would follow (the gradual retirement of the greenbacks, provided oredlt was reasonably stable, liunks would supply tho needed currency, or gold would como from abroad. The pursuance of Secretary McOulloch's pol loy would have disposed of the question, Any business man who constantly re deems his notes without retiring them and keeps them out constantly will come to a Bettllng doy that will break him. "Tho ohlsf feature ot a banking bill would bo to tako from tha government tho Issue of credit notes. The banks oan do this. Banks oonducted on practical banking prluolplos Instead of speculative principles oould satisfy tho ourreuoy needs of buslnoss. Beforo tha war the banks had always furnished suilloloni gold for business." In the course of a discussion ot the war conditions, Mr. Kokels gave the opinion that the government might have main tained gold payments throughout tha war, and said that Senator Morrill be lieved the Issuance of tho greenbanks had greatly iuoreased the cost of the war. Recent disturbances hud been due, Mr. Eckels asserted, t the distrust arousod by the polloy, first, of stamping a trade dol lar as 100 oents when It was not worth that without something behind It and the ad dition of tho Sherman law. The repeal ol the Sherman law, and the recent election against free silver, with the unusual for eign demand for breadstuffs, had restored normnl conditions, but If at any timo con ditions arose which created a demand fot 100,000,000 of gold, that gold would ba drawn from the treasury. Iu reply to n question from Mr. Cox, ol Tennessee, whether there was any objec tion to tho use of the greenbacks as a basis of banking, Mr. Kokels said: "That would bo imprisonment for life Instead of direct oxeou tlon. Under such a system," he added, "If a bank wont out of busluoss or contracted Its curroncy, tho govern ment should redeem the notes. Bujided securities were payable on a cortnlu date, but any banking systom based on them, any systom which basod tho volume of currency ou uuythlug but the needs of business was erroneous." Mr. Cook, of Wisoonsln, Inquired why the "endless chaiu" process had not oa currod during the fourteen yoars begin ning with 187a, when tho government was buying so much silver. The ..explanation Mr. Eckels gave was that during these years thore ware only $316,000,00 ) of obli gations In tho public mind redeemable in gold, while last year there were fl56,ob0, 000 more. Referring to tho bond Issues hy the pres ent administration, Mr. Kukels said: "Tho government should not lie put lu the posi tion of a mendicant asking aid, uor should it be at the mercy of financiers. No gov ernment can base Its fluunclul system on patriotism." Mr. Nowlands asked whether there was any debtor nation that was able to keep Its unoovored paper money ut par with gold. To this Mr. ICokles replied that ha knew of no such oaso except the United States, but maintained that they oould do so if the paper was Issued by the banks instead of the government. In reply to a question Mr. Kokels said that In his opinion there is sttfllclent gold In tho wo- Id to meet all demands If prop erly used. Thui-a Is about $700,000,000 of gold In the United States, much of which hud been lu sufe deposits until after the election. Prefers ISxtermlnatlon, Nr.w York, Jan. 89.
