The
Whole
Truth!
There's nothing
so bad for a cough
as coughing.
There's nothing
so good for a
cough as Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral.
The 25 cent size is just right
for an ordinary, everyday cold.
The 50 cent size is better for the
cough of bronchitis, croup, grip,
and hoarseness. The dollar size
is the best for chronic coughs,
as in consumption, chronic bron

SANDOW ON EXERCISE.
Bays Dumbbell Practice, If Not Overdone,
Is the Proper Thing.
"Dumbbell practice gives strength to
every .sinew, from the finger tips to the
elbow, from the top of the head to the
sole of the foot," Sandow, the strong
man, said in a recent interview. "The
young can be kept in perfect health,
and older people are helped and Im
proved even when suffering any ail
ment which appears to them to be
quite hopeless, but, of course, great
care must be taken not to overdo the
practising, and it is wiser to increase
the number of movements very grad
ually and not on any account to get
overtired at first," he advised. But he
does 6tate most emphatically that,
dumbbell exercises, taken in modera
tion, give grace and suppleness to the
figure and that perfect ease to the car
riage that comes from having the mus
cles under control. He makes a strong
point of an easy beginning, which does
not expect too much at first, but gains
strength by degrees. Such exercise
sends the blood through the veins with
new life, which gives pleasure and joy
to every individual.

BANKERS AND GOLD.
THEIR CHIEF INTEREST IN
MONOMETALLISM.
In Ordor That They May Retain Their
Clutch on the Throats of Producers —
The Money Lender Knows No Country,
Loves No Flag.
From Jeffersonian Democrat: The
great bankers of Wall street, and of
others of our great cities besides New
York, are financially in close sympa
thy and business relations with the
bankers of London, Berlin and Vienna,
and all of them, as a class, have placed
their principal Interests in gold-bear
ing bonds, for the plain reason that
such bonds are, and will be, the most
profitable stocks for them to keep, or
to deal in, if they can only be made the
ruling stocks of the world, through
the influence of gold monometallism.
If gold can be made the basis of all
financial operations It will reduce the
basis of all currency to the narrow
limits of the one metal, gold, instead
of the double basis of both gold and
silver, and make gold worth, far cur
rency purposes, the two metals com
bined. This policy would double the
value of the holdings of all the gold
owners and gold-bond holders, and in
like proportion would Increase the
profits of bankers to the extent to
which they might own or handle gold,
while, at the same time. It would
lower prices and lower wages to the
advantage of the rich, Increase the
burden of debts, widen the division be
tween the rich and the poor, and build
up a ruling moneyed class that would
subordinate everything to Its Interests.
As thfe gold of the world is already
In the hands of comparatively few peo
ple—such as the great bankers and
their allies—of whom the English rul
ing aristocracy of merchant manufac
turers and land-owners form an in
fluential part, it will be seen that here
is a powerful class that will strive for
and maintain the gold policy as long
as possible. Thus every species of
artifice that wealth and station can
command will be used to maintain the
class interests that center around gold
monometallism. On the other hand,
there Is a vastly larger and hitherto
less organized body of people, com
prising the workers In the world's
myriads of Industries, who are the
principal authors of the world's in
dustrial wealth, and among whom are
to be found the principal inventors,
discoverers and leaders in all material
advancement. And as political econo
my means political or public policy,
and as this policy is viewed from dif
ferent standpoints, and varies In its
application to different classes and
conditions of people, we see why dif
ferent and opposing views of public
policy are so strenuously urged by
gold monometalllsts on the one hand
and bimetallists on the other. We
see why the great body of bankers and
financiers are numbered among the
falsely-called "sound money" men;
why our currency has been chiefly
under the management of bankers, as
from this class have been taken most
of the government controllers of the
currency, and we see why nearly all
such, are gold monometalllsts. Their
wishes are very definitely expressed In
the avowed belief of Mr. Trenholm, a
former controller of the currency, and
a writer of one of the"sound currency"
pamphlets of the New York "Reform
club," who says at the close of his
article: "Gold monometallism Is the
unavoidable destiny of this country.
Bimetallism Is for us a snare and a
delusion." Moreover, the bankers do
pot want any international bimetallism
whatever, but they demand, and are
determined to enforce, gold monomet
allism pure and simple, and this they
avow when they confer among them
selves and throw off disguises. Thus
the president of the New York State
Bankers' association, Mr. Wm. C. Corn
wall, said recently: "It is time to tear
off disguises. International bimetallism
is a traitor in thecamp. [ln our camp.]
It Is a false friend. It can never be
accomplished [We will prevent it]
It Is a will-o'-the-wisp dancing over
the deadly marsh." No doubt Mr.
Cornwall reasoned correctly from the
standpoint of the most profitable
banking. There is no use in dallying
with the banking fraternity on the
subject of International bimetallism.
We shall be asked: Are not bank
ers, as a class, honest In their advo
cacy of gold monometallism? Honest
in their advocacy of what they call
"sound money" as the best money?
Yes, the best for their purposes. From
all over the land banking conventions
are adopting resolutions in favor of
"sound money"; and they are denounc
ing all who argue for free coinage of
both gold and silver—that is, bimetal
lists —as "silver lunatics." And when
the bimetallists hold a convention tho
refined, the courtly, the rich monomet
alllsts characterize the convention, in
advance, as a "silver pow-wow!" We
are asked, Why this kind of most un
courtly opposition by this class of
usually respectable people? We are
forced to answer. It Is because "the
craft Is in danger!" for they say, "Sirs,
by this craft we have our wealth."
And, therefore, "Alexander the Jew,
and the craftsmen with him. and De
metrius, the silversmith, and Alexan
der, the coppersmith, all shout with
one accord," "Great is gold monomet
allism!" "Great is Diana of the
Ephesians!" And thus these crafts
men make many people believe that
It is a shame "that the temple of the
great goddess Diana should be despised
and her magnificence be destroyed,
whom all Asia and the world wor
shiped."
We think it very proper to offset tho
views of champions of the banking in
terests by those expressed by the dis
tinguished United States Senator John
T. Morgan of Alabama In the Arena
of November, 1895. Mr. Morgan
iterates the views of able, conscien
tious and worthy men when he says:
"The whole body of our productive in
terests is as completely under the con
trol of the bankers and other financiers
as a locomotive is under the control of
the engineer." Mr. Morgan thus ex
pressed the beliefs founded on knowl
edge of all intelligent bimetallists.
Not all the banks, or the men who
control them, would be subservient to
the plans and plottings and practices
of the great metropolitan bankers who
lead in the gambling for wealth, for
the country banks and other minor
banks are often made to suffer, the
same as the people, by the financiering
of those who fill the high places in the
craft. It was so In the great financial
panic of 1893, brought on by a few of
the leading banks for a political object,
when ninety-eight of the minor de
pendent banks were run down in that
tornado of ruin.
MONEY IS CHEAP.
We often hear the expression made
that money is cheap; that the banks
are full of it; that one can get all the
money he wants at 6 or 6 per cent. If
he will only furnish the necessary
collateral.
Yes, but how many are there that
can furnish the necessary collateral to
get this cheap money out of the bank?
Not one in fifty. While those who can
not furnish this collateral, and who
must have the money, are compelled
to go to a loan agency, give a chattel
mortgage on their household furniture
and other personal property, and pay
from 5 to 10 per cent interest per
month to get the money.
Besides, under the gold standard of
money all kinds of human property
except money and bonds and notes and
stocks and other investments that
fetch a fixed and certain income In
money, are constantly falling in pur
chasing power; and hence, money ly
ing idle in a bank or safe deposit
vaults is a better and safer investment
than it would be if Invested in property
or business.
For this reason, those who are able
to give the necessary collateral to get
the money out of the banks, even at
the low rate of 5 or 6 per cent interest
per annum, do not want it, for the
good and sufficient reason that under
the gold standard of money and a con
stantly falling market, they cannot re
invest It so as to make the low inter
est they have to pay the bank, afod
still make a profit on the property
bought or the legitimate labor-employ
ing business entered into.
Therefore money piles up In the
banks. But this is not an evidence
that times are good or that money is
cheap, but an evidence that times are
hard and getting harder, and that
money, not the use of money, is higher.
The use of money Is cheap, because
men cannot take it even at the present
low rate of Interest for the use of it,
and make a profit on it by Reinvest
ing It in property or business. But
money itself is not cheap, but high. If
you go to a bank and get SI,OOO for
ninety days, at say 5 per cent, you do
not buy the money, but only the use
of It.
You must return the SI,OOO at the
end of ninety days, with the accumu
lated Interest, if, Indeed, the interest
has not been taken out In advance.
If you go to a bank to buy SI,OOO, not
to buy the use of it, you must leave
the value of the SI,OOO in property or
labor, and when you have done this
you will find that Instead of money
being cheap, it Is really the dearest
SI,OOO you ever bought In your lives.
This shows conclusively that the use
of money, not the money Itself, is in
deed cheap, and for the reasons above
stated. Gold standard men do not see
this distinction, or appear not to do
so. In fact, as a rule, gold standard
men are notably and pitiably Ignorant
upon the history, the economy and the
purpose of money; but men who un- ]
derstand the money question do see the
distinction, as they also see the
sophisms of the gold standard, and this
is why the silver men are so enthusi
astic in the cause, and are so anxious
to see the money of the constitution
restored to the place it occupied in the
monetary system of the republic nearly
a hundred years ago.
H. C. BELL.
What Mar and Mark Have Done.
"The McKinley administration has
made most disgraceful appointments
to office at the behest of unscrupulous
politicians. It has betrayed tho civil
service to the spoilsmen, paralyzed the
organization of the army, violated its
pledges as to currency reform, humili
ated its most efficient servants and dis
credited American Intelligence and
valor In the eyes of the civilized world.
In a time for courage it has quailed.
In a time for decision it has hesitated.
In a time for action it has delayed.
In a time for honest dealing
it has faltered and equivocated.
It's policy has been to drift;
its aim has been to placate
everybody, however unworthy, and
cater to everybody, however mischiev
ous; its course has been to sacrifice
any and every vital interest of the na
tion on the altar of partisan and per
sonal politics."
It was not a Democrat who said this,
but the Portland Oregonian, the lead
ing Republican paper of Oregon.
To expect the Republican party to
destroy the trusts, says the Central
Kansas Democrat, Is as absurd as to
expect a parent to kill its child.
The devil too often gets the boy by
getting his father first.'
UPSTARTS AND POST STAMPS
imaiini; Follle* of One of the Noa*
veuux Rlcliea.
They were telling snob stories, says
the New York Commercial Advertiser,
and the demure-looking woman said:
"The most amusing upstart I ever met
had a horror of any one suspecting
that she ever practiced economy. She
was very fond of walking and loved to
walk in the park, but she seldom per
mitted herself this pleasure, always go
ing in her carriage—for fear some one
she knew should meet her and imagine
she did not have a carriage. Her
household waa conducted on the same
principle. She knew few people whom
she thought worth entertaining, so her
dinner parties were small, but so anx
ious was she to be thought rich and
liberal that she would have a butler
and three or four assistants to wait
upon half a dozen persons. Of
course, they got in each other's way
and often collisions and crashes oc
curred. Then she would sigh and say
she didn't understand why she couldn't
get good servants. She paid enough,
goodness knows. Her follies were
many and very funny before she finally
entered the sacred portal and was giv
en a throne of her own and a scepter
j to wield, but one of her pet extrava
i gances was really quite original. It
j was in her early days, when money
I didn't seem to be able to buy every
thing, after all. She gave a dinner to
which she had reason to think sev
eral grandees would come. And when
she sent out her invitations she put h
five-cent stamp on each envelope!"

Cats Made Over.
"If you want a Persian cat bring m
any common kitten you like, and with
in six months I will return it to you
with a coat which would put to sham*
that of the shah's favorite pusey," said
a cat fancier to the writer. "No tor
ture or fake is employed. Some time
ago It was brought to my notice that
the eats living in refrigerating cham
bers got coats of enormous thickness,
and also that they grew to nearly dou
ble the size of the ordinary pusey. The
idea being given, the rest was easy. I
had a small refrigerator fitted up in my
premises, and made an experiment. It
was so successful that I have since
made a profit, by turning common pus
sies into genuine Persians, of $2,500 a
yetir. Again, I now have only one cure
for cats, never mind what disease
they are suffering from. I freeze them,
and am by this remedy able to return
them to their owners, within a week,
perfectly happy and well. Again, for
the last two years the majority of show
cats have come to me in the early
autumn to have their winter coats
made by my method, so that they shall
not catch a chill owing to any sudden
change in the weather."
A Notable Silver Annlvenary.
I With tte close of the present year Mr,
David C. Cook, of Chicago, will celebratt
i his first quarter-centennial as editor and
publisher of Sunday-school literature.
I Starting twenty-live years ago, without
j reputation or assurance of support, he has
i become one of the most widely and favor
| ably known publishers in this line. Begin
i nlng In 1875 with two small publications,
| his periodicals have grown in number und
favor until there are few schools In this
country that do not find it to their interest
to use some of his pure and helpful publi-
I cations, while many in distant lauds pay
tribute to their merits. The past quartet
: of a century has witnessed many changes
among Sunday-school publishers, and
much less time than this has sufficed for
some to outlive their usefulness. On th
contrary, Mr. Cook is preparing to cele
brate the beginning of unother quarter
century with additional improvements and
new publications. Among these may be
mentioned THE NEW CENTURY SUNDAY
SCHOOL TEACHER'S MONTHLY, a largo and
thoroughly up-to-date magazine for super
intendents and teachers, the first Issue ol
which will appear jp D'eedinber. Among
the most HrViarkabte of his publications ic
the YOUNO PEOPLE'S WEEKLY, which hns at
tained a circulation of nearly a quarter oi
a million, being'u successful attempt to
furnish a high grade of religious story
reading for boys and girls. To avoid th
"goody-goody" story of the Sunday
school, such as we remember in our child
hood days, und furnish something natural,
Interesting and ennobling, has beeu its
aim, and we are not at all surprised at its
popularity.
The restraining influence of the Chris
tian homo and the Suuday-school ou our
growing community of young people, some
of us may not appreciate as we should—
perhaps because those sometimes fail to
restrain. This paper should be u most
welcome accessory in this work, and oue
which all should nppreoiate. Boys and
girls will read, and the story book and
paper are their first ohoice. There seems
a plentiful supply of religious papers for
older people, but this Is the first success
ful attempt to furnish a non-sectarian re
ligious story paper for young people.
The paper is profusely Illustrated, beau
tifully printed, and contains as much or
more reading matter than the most expen
sive of secular young people's story papers.
The price, seventy-five cents per year,
should bring It within the reach of every
homo. Mr. Cook is now making a special
effort to give the paper 11 wider circulation,
and all who send seventy-five cents for a
year's subscription before Jan. Ist will re
ceive a beautiful premium picture entitled
"The Soul's Awakening." It is exactly the
same size (13 by 18 inches) and style as
those oasale at art stores for tl. Orders
should be addressed to David C. Cook
Publishing Co., 36 Washington 8t , Chicago.
Probubly no mun living has done so
much to Improve and cheapen Sunday
school literature as has Mr. David C.
Cook. Through his aid thousands of
schools have been encouraged, Improved
and made self-sustaining. Mr. Oook is yet
a comparatively young man, and it noes
not appear at nil improbablo that his field
of usefulness may extend over yet another
quarter-century.
Why Change* Are Needed.
Change of scene, change of occupa
tion and frequent changes In furnish
ings and diet are all important at this
season, and the time of rest may be
secured from these changes even when
an expensive outing, or the usual sum
mer vacation, has not been afforded.
No woman who has ever tried it can
conceive of the rest and pleasure re
sulting from a change of some sort
Make such changes as are possible by
rearranging rooms in the matter of
furniture, pictures, ornaments, etc. Do
something, anything, to rest the eye
and brain from dead-level monotony.
It is said that marked cases of in
somnia have been cured by changing
from one sleeping-room to another.
