Public credit in .the whole enormous volume ‘of currency— i‘iUnited States notes, Treasury notes, seilver certificates and what not—is de- "pendent upon the maintenance in the Treasury of a reserve of gold believed to be suffiiient to redeem any notes ithat may be presented from time to time in that purpose. Y it the Treisury has no way of acquiring gold in the 0rd n- ary way of business, as a bank Would -have, or of milintaining its reserve by ilimiting its loans.

It is the most preposterous system that ever was conceived by man, =0: rather that rational men ever allowel '30 come about, for it never was deliber- ately designed.

The thieves blew open the a dc, ransacked the money drawers and scattered stamps about freely but got only a few dollars in money. Roger McGinnis wishes the GAZETTE to deny the published statement that Mrs. Bridget Fagan secured l‘quor at his cottage on the New Canaan road. He says that she has not been inside of his house in over three years. All right Roger, your denial shall be put in cold typ i at d printed. Weak Worn out, nervous women, receive criticism where they should have sympathy. They cannot help being nervous, if their blood is impure. \thn the blood fails to feed the nerves upon proper nourishment What can you expect but nervous prostra- tion, debility and nervous headaches? If the cause is found in impure blood, the cure must be in making the blood pure. This is just what Hood's Sarsa— parilla does, and it has proved the true nerve tonic because it is the true blood purifier, and the solace, comfort and defender of thousands of housewives, Nervous teachers, clerks and other sufferers of of both sexes. Just read this letter: “I think it is my duty to tell what Hood’s Sarsaparilla has done for me and my family. Two years ago I was in a weak, nervous condition and had dreadful pal- pitations or jumping of my heart, fol- lowed by sinking spells, which would last for several minutes. Sometimes it would seem as though I would never come out of them. I was treated by the best physi- cians, but only for a little time did they help me. I seemed to be growing Worse instead of better. I would often seem hungry, but when I ate, no matter how little, it would cause me such misery that I was often wicked enough to wish my- self dead. I had that Tired languid, all-gone feeling and suffered aw- ful distress in my stomach. I had given up all hopes of ever beingavell, when my mother wished me to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I consented, to please her, and before I had taken the whole of one bottle I could see I was improving, and soon was indeed very much better. Its effects have been truly wonderful and I hope this letter may be the means of help- ing other suffering men and to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla and be benefited by it. We have used Hood’s Pills in our family and find them very excellent, es- pecially for constipation. We give Hood’s medicines great praise, and if anyone complains of feeling badly, I say ‘You should take Hood’s and only Hood’s.”’ MRS. KI'I'I‘IE SAITH, 326 Dane Street, Wa- terloo, Iowa.
