Value of Pictures. Pictures do more toward furnishing a house and determining the status of its inmates than anything else. If you have a suspicion that you are not wise in choosing and hanging pictures, get advice from someone whose taste need not be questioned, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. Cheap pictures are not nec essarily poor, but a poor picture is usually cheap. To be able to discern the difference is a quality with which every one is not blessed. A good plan is to purchase copies of famous pic tures, etchings and engravings. These are almost sure to be good. In fram ing pictures remember that gold frames are for oil paintings and dark pictures, white frames for water col ors, and black enamel or Flemish oak and modern oak for etchings and photographs.

Free Silver Coinage and Staple Govern ment Currency Serve to Maintain Uu cqualcd Activity in All Fioldit of Fro duction—Bondholder* Are Scarce. A New York banker bas Just re turned from Mexico and was inter viewed by the New York Tribune, but the Arizona Gazette insists that the VVhitelaw Reld organ was afraid to publish the truth about Mexican pros perity. The returned banker did say through the Tribune that the republic is prosperous, paying off its national debt and furnishing hundreds of thou sands of new laborers with employ ment every year. "There is more money coming into Mexico than ever before," quoth the banker; "banks are being organized all over the country and everything is in a cheerful condi tion. The Americans and English are putting up great sugar mills and open ing up the tropical belt to the markets of the world. Here the Arizona paper takes up the interview and explains why the Tribune cut it short. "There are no panic scares there. The monetary standard is stable. The supply of money is sufficient for the de mauds of trade. In fact, it is the abundance of money that starts trade and keeps it up. Every Mexican pro ducer is making money and is happy. While other nations are hoarding their currency, that of Mexico is in circu lation, performing the functions for which it was created. "Mexican statesmen and financiers attribute the prosperity enjoyed by their people and the republic to the unlimited use of silver as a medium of exchange. "They have currency which is not constantly appreciating in value to the detriment of all other forms of wealth; a currency which cannot be cornered, manipulated or controlled by a few to the injury of the many. A currency which foreign financiers can not limit or lock up at pleasure. A currency which enables the producing classes of Mexico to realize from their products more than the bare cost of production—in short, a currency which is satisfactory to and sufficient for the tradesmen and producers and to every body except the usurers and the money changers, who have been scourged from the temple of Mexican progress." POLITICAL BROTHERS. It must be an immense satisfaction to the American citizen, worrying over his financial condition, that William McKinley and Grover Cleveland are in full accord as to the "proper" remedy. Time was when William boldly and anarchisticaiiy, not to say treasonably, denounced Grover in no measured language for depositing public money in "pet banks." It is a suspicious sign, however, to now have two such master minds and prominent figures in the public eye engaged in smacking their lips over the public purse. It is said that "when rogue 3 fall out honest men get their due," but here we have the unsual spectacle of two honest men clinging together like Siamese twins, staying the attacks of a dis honest people. We are all rogues, and we have departed from the principles established by the immortal Jackson. Grover says so, and William nods ns senL What is the ligature which holds these incompatible, inconsistent ele ments together in such close relations? Is there a possibility amounting to a possibility that the next ticket to sweep the country in the interests of the foreign bond holder, the trusts, syndicates, money brokers, banks and other instruments of American pros perity, shall be McKinley and Cleve land, or Cleveland and McKinley? It matters little which way the ticket reads, so far as effects go. True, Grover did inconsiderately twist the British lion's tail in the Venezuela matter, but William has been gracious ly apologizing ever since, even to the surrender of the whole country to our British brethren. England would hail such a ticket with its approval, and put up money to secure its election. What difference, therefore, to the American people? The men who own and con trol the people's money also own and control the people themselves. ABBOTT ON HARVEY'S BOOK. After four years, during which pe riod he has at all times been laboring with voice and pen and organizing ability to fulfill the mission of '96, Mr. Harvey, author of Coin's Financial School, comes before the people on the eve of the new presidential cam paign with a new book—ln the familiar stylo of his former one, but treating of tne later, though not more import ant, issues which have sprung up since the time that Mr. Bryan was defrauded of his election. "Coin on Money, Trusts and Imperialism" treats of at least one issue—imperialism—which had not raised Its threatening head in '96. During that struggle, too, the trusts, though already offering a cer tain menace to the well-being of the people, had not developed into such startling proportions as they now pre sent. To these issues Coin, in his new series of lectures, devotes much of his attention, but the old issuo—the issue that will arise perennially until out of the hands of a favored class shall be taken the priceless privilege of issuing and controlling the money of the peo ple—engages his attention in the open ing chapters of the book. 1 do not think that Mr. Harvey has ever done anything so well as his dissection of the privileges enjoyed and the further ones demanded by the national bank ers. In a clear and simnle stria. using A3 heretofore the dialogue form, ha discusses the demand of the banking class that it shall be permitted to con trol the money of the people, anil! shows conclusively by figures, the au thenticity of which cannot he disputed, how enormous are the profits they now derive and hope to continue to draw from their monopoly. The profit of the dealer in money is the "unearned increment" no less certainly than i 3 the profit of the speculator in land who ha 3 contributed nothing to the produc tive forces of the nation. Mr. Harvey demonstrates this, though he does not use this particular comparison, and I believe that his logic will prove as ir l'efutable as his language is simple and direct. In my opinion, this new book of Mr, Harvey's—notably better than "Coin's Financial School"—by its thoroughly human treatment of the questions of the campaign, deserves and will attain a popularity and a circulation quite commensurate with his earlier one. It is, like that one, cleverly illustrated by drawings which enforce the teach ings of the text, and is given a certain up-to-date and living interest by the employment of the names of well known men in the course of the dis cussions which it recounts. It is a book that will be read by the millions, and will be a most potent weapon in the hands of the people for their de fense against privileged classes. WILLIS J. ABBOT, Chief of the Press Bureau of the Demo cratic National Committee. EDITORIAL ETCHINGS. While it would be a very beautiful thing to give everything to God, still there are some things which may belong to Caesar without offense to the Cre ator. Indeed, it was Christ himself who said: "Render, therefore, to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's." Senator Beveridge, in his re markable conversion of the Ameri can republic into an apostolic propa ganda, does not seem able to draw the line in his anxiety to curry favor with his masters, the trusts, hanks and the Republican administration. Is it not a suspicious circumstance that ail of the trusts, banks, money lenders, etc., are demanding McKin ley's re-election, and are contributing heavily to the Republican campaign fund? Some say we cannot get along without the banks and great moneyed institutions, and therefore feel it obligatory to stand In with them. That is true enough when one wants to bor row money, hut the difficulty is, the great majority want to earn it, but cannot because of the hoarding of the money for speculation. We have gone so deep into the world's politics that a great standing army is said to be necessary to save the nation. If we had not gone in so deep we would not have required so much army, would we? Gov. Roosevelt wants to know: "Has any individual been injured by the ac quisition of wealth by any man?" Cer tainly, the man who has been robbed. If the governor had used the word "wronged," the United States treas ury might have been Indicated. There is altogether too much argu ment among our grammarians about tho proper number of the verb "to be" used in connection with the United States. Ought it to be "the United States is," or "the United States are?" By and by it will be "the United States ain't." Gen. Alger is about to publish a book defending his administration of the war department and embalmed beef. Secretary Gage and a few others might also write books of explanation under the title, "How I Did It." Owing to the impressive, not to say fierce, demands made by Ambassador Choate, the British government has re leased the American flour seized by it in Delagoa bay. Thus war has been averted by the firmness of President McKinley. Jack Non and Bryan. Hero is something for those who think Jackson would favor McKinley ism, were he alive, to consider: "He was the first American to em phasize the Democratic doctrine that under the constitution congress alone had power to coin and issue money; and in his veto of the hill to recharter the United States bank he declared that this power was a governmental function, could be exercised by con gress alone, and should not he dele gated to corporations or individuals. Ho denounced the hank and denied the constitutionality of its creation. Against the advico of Webster and Clay, against the decision of the Su preme court, in the face of friends and foes alike, he took his stand and fought the fight to a finish against the most gigantic monopoly which Ameri ca at that time had ever known." The Republican organs have been eulogizing the memory of Andrew Jackson with fulsome praise. They seem to be afraid of him even in the spirit. But he comes out of his grave on occasions and speaks to the Ameri can people in such clear language that uo man can be deceived. Monopnliea to tho Front. "Those who studied the trust ques tion in 1896 foresaw that an adminis tration placed in power by the aid of great monopolies could not he relied upon to destroy the trusts, but many who could not be convinced by argu ment are now being convinced by ths rapid growth and increased audacity of private monopolies."—W.

Anybody who heard Senator Allen of Nebraska, deliver his famous teen-hour speech against the bill foi the repeal of the Sherman silver bill would hardly believe that anything coud stump him. Yet there is an ex perience In the senator's life which shows that, after all, he Is like unto other mortals, says the Washington Post. "I was campaigning In my state once," said the senator, "when ] had occasion to speak at a fall grounds. The grand stand was full, and the occasion seemed to be full ol promise for an orator overflowing as I was with political gospel. Just as I had commenced a man brought out an ostrich hitched to a sulky. I don'l know whether you ever saw the trot ting ostrich in the east, but out west he was a great attraction. Well, as soon as that bird began to run around the track I wasn't In it. The ostrich monopolized the attention of every man, woman and child. When the bird stopped the people listened to me, but when he threw out his long legs again there was a roar of laughter and applause which drowned every word I uttered. Finally, I gave it up. I let the trotting ostrich have everything his own way." Optimistic. From the New York World.—Angel tne —Do you really think, then, that Mr. Softhead la Interested In you?

U. 7 'OO 1 Thompson's Eye Water Save Your Hair with Shampoos of And light dressings of CUTICURA, purest of emollient skin cures. This treatment at once stops falling hair, removes crusts, scales, and dandruff, soothes irritated, itching surfaces, stimulates the hair follicles, supplies the roots with energy and nourishment, and makes the hair grow upon a sweet, wholesome, healthy scalp when all else fails. Millions of Women Use CCTICURA SOAP exclusively for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stop plug of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and healing, red, rough, and sore hauds, in the form of baths for annoying irritations and dialings, or too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weak nesses, and for many antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, and especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery. No amount of persuasion can induce those who have once used it to use any other, especially for preserving and purifying the skin, scalp, and hair of infants and children. CUTICUKA SOAP combiues delicate emollient properties derived from CUTICUKA, the great skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients, and the most refreshing of flower odors. No other medicated soap ever compounded is to be compared with it for pre serving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair, and hands. No Other foreign or domestic toilet soap, however expensive, is to be compared with it for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery. Thus It com bines, in ONE SOAP at ONE PRICE, viz., TWENTY-FIVE CENTS, the BEST skin and complexion soap, the BEST toilet and BEST baby soap in the world. All that has been saiil of CUTICUHA SOAP may bo said with even greater emphasis of CUTICUKA Ointment, the most delicate, and yet most effective of emollients, and greatest of skin cures.
