1 Thk fine weather of the past few
j days reminds the fnsliionable preach
ers that the season for sore throats
and vacations is coming on apace.
There has been an increase of
$1 70 per capita in the circulation of
the country in the past twelve months.
It now amounts to $25.45. Business is
gaining at a rapid rate, but the
growth in the currency keeps pace
with it.
As an evidence of total incom
petency, the District Attorney of
New york city last week called for
the appearance of half u dozen dead
men to stand trial for excise misde
meanors. Such is Tammany rule In
New York.
Pennsylvania's Legislative in
vestigation is over, but New York's is
still going on and growing in interest.
"Private business" is the answer now
given by witnesses who desire to
avoid "giving away" their friends in-
stead of the old chestnutty one "I
don't remember."
The supposition that Mr. Croker
wus devoting his time to politics for
mere amusement is rudely dispelled
by his own admission that he is in the
business for the more dignified pur
pose of making an honest living. It
ts even hinted that he is "building
rick houses" and employs "a private
secretary."
The Lancaster tobacco trade, which
has grown to large proportions by the
industry and business capacity of her
utizens, has received a serious blow
n the Jacobs counterfeit stamps case,
jne which has already made every
dealer who handles Lancaster cigars
suspicious. These precious rascals
.have caused unjust doubts to be cast
upon all the dealers of that thriving
town.
The soldiers hereabouts were inter
ested in a bill introduced by Senator
Losch which granted $10 additional
pay to the soldiers serving in the war
with Spain, and there have been a
great many inquiries regarding the
fate of the measure. It appears that
the bill passed the Senate, but was
choked off by Chairman Marshall, ot
the House Committee on Appropria
tions, to which it was referred and
did not come up for final passuge.
Mr. Bryan has a big job on his
hands in finding a common ground
upon which Democrats can stand.
Mr. Bryan himself is opposed to an
ne-r ition as strongly as he is in favor
of free silver; but he will find many
Democrats who, while they are as
earnest in their advocacy of free
silver as he is, they are at the same
time endorsers of expansion. On the
other hand, he will find numerous
gold Democrats who share his views
against expansion and others in the
gold Democratic ranks who are ex
pansionists. American manufacturers, the
Treasury Bureau of Statistics informs
us. continue to extend their "spheres
of influence" throughout the world.
During the eight months ending with
1'ebruary 28, 180D, the exports of man
ufactures were not only $87,000,000 in
excess of the imports of manufactures,
but more than 20 000,000 In excess of
those exported in the corresponding
months of the fiscal year 1808. In the
fiscal year 189a the United States for
the first time exported more munu
factures than she imported, and the
fiscal year 1890 wll make another and
even better record!

Chicago, April 2-1. Friends of Dr.
Nicholas Senn, surgeon general of the
Illinois National Guard, and head pro
fessor of surgery In Rush Medical col
lege, have announced his name as a
candidate for tho Hepubllcan nomina
tion for governor of Illinois next year.
Dr. Sonn has been president of the
American Medical society and the
Amerlcnn Surgical society, and during
the Spanish war was chief operating
surgeon In tho field beforo Santiago
and on the Island of Porto Itlco.
PARSNIP COMPLEXION.
It does not require an expert to detect the
sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow
cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy
circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip
colored complexion indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had rheuma
tism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over
the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate
often, or a burning or scalding in passing it ;
if after passing there is an unsatisfied feeling
as if it must be at once repeated, or if th'e
urine has a brick dust deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and
sometimes requiring the drawing of the
urine with iustruments, or may run into
Blight's Disease, the most dangerous stage of
kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot, the great dis
covery of the cmineut kidney and bladdet
specialist, is a positive remedj" for such dis
eases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is
so easy to get at any drug store that no one
need suffer any length of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test its
wonderful merits, mention Evening Herald
and write to Dr. Kilmer & Co.. Binghainton,
N. Y., for a sample bottle and book telling all
about it, both sent absolutely free by mail.

OUR BANNER EXPORT YEAR.
For Every Dollar Spent Abroad We
Sold Two HoHnr' Worth.
Washington, April 24. The fiscal
year of 1898 was the banner year of
the foreign trade of tho United States,
our exports being the largest over re
corded for a like period and our lm
ports exceptionally small. According
to a comprehensive report Just pre
pared by Mr, Frank H. Hitchcock,
chief of the section of foreign mar
kets of the agricultural department, the
total, value of our domestic exports
reached the enormous sum of $1,210,-
291,913, exceeding the record breaking
figures of the preceding year by 1178,-
284,310. On the other hand, the im
ports during 1898 were the smallest
sinct) 1886, their value being $616,049,
654, a decline of $148,680,768 from the
figures of 1897, Broadly stated, for
every dollars' worth of foreign mer
chandise brought into the United
States two dollars' worth of our pro
ducts found a market abroad. Our
domestic exports as compared with our
imports showed an excess of $694,242,-
269, or more than twice the excoss for
1897, which was tho largest previously
reported.
An interesting fact developed by the
report of Mr. Hitchcock Is tho lncroaso

being 70.93 per cent of the total, or
$868,607,942, a gain of nearly 25 per
cent over 1897. Exports of this class
also show a greater gain proportion
ately than non-agricultural exports.

Philadelphia, April 24. There are
no developments In the counterfeiting
plot which was unearthed In this city
last week. Chief of the Secret Service
Division John E. Wilkle, Captain of the
Secret Service William J. Burns and
United States District Attorney James
M. Beck went to Lancaster yesterday
afternoon and returned to this city
late last night. On their arrival here
each of them refused to say anything
about their visit to Lancaster. Each
of the government officials carried
small satchel, but It could not be learn
ed whether they contained counter
felt plates or not.
Rumors are still being circulated
that further arrests will be made, and
when the three officials were question
ed they refused to talk about the mat
ter except to say that no additional
warrants had been Issued, It Is under
stood, however, that two warrants
have been Issued for the arrest of per
sons unknown to any one but the
secret service people.

Boils and Pimples
To neglect to purity the blood at this
time means more than tho annoyance of painful boils and
unsightly pimples. If these impurities are allowed to
remain, the system succumbs to any ordinary illness, and is
unable to withstand the many ailments which are so
prevalent during spring and summer.
Mrs. L. Gentile, 2001 Second Avenue, Seattle, Wash ,
says : " I was alHicted for a long time with pimples, which
were Terr annoying, as they disfigured ray face fearfully.
After using many othor remedies in vain, S S. S. promptly
and thoroughly cleansed my blood, and now I rejoice in
a good complexion, which I never had before."
