A CONFIDENTIAL CHATttccn two men cr women generally de-

velops the fact that one or both are troubledby sickness of some kind. One man Is allright except his rheumatism, another has a

slight touch " of dyspepsia, another hasbilious headaches, and another is too nerv-ous to sleep welL What's to be done about it?

The situation is serious. little thingshave a way of petting- big. Bi(r diseases arebad things. Sleeplessness brings irritablenerves, loss offiesh, loss of appetite. Sleep-less people soon get their bodies into sucho condition that disease-germ- s find it easyto lodge there and propagate. People diefrom the aggravation ofan aggregation of lit-tle things. The more promptly a disease ordisorder is met the more quickly it is cured.

Most all sickness starts in the stomach,liver or lung. Rheumatism, scrofula, ec-zema, consumption, come about becauseiuu(Hcient, impure or impoverished bloodIs present. The diseased blood Cads theweakest spot in the body and a local symp-tom appears. If the impurity is supplantedwith good, rich, red, healthy corpn-xles-

,

the disease will have nothing to leetIon.If the proper clcansin; medicine is ent tothe scat of the trouble, it will force out theCerms and repair the damage done.

AND "IF" IN McKINLEY'S RE--MARKS.

There will be no dissent from the prop-osition laid down by Major McKinleyin his speech of acknowledgment Mon-

day that "thu income of the Govern-ment should equal its necessary andproper expendituies." Nor will any ob-

jection be raised to the further proposi-tion that '"if sufficient revenues are pro-vided for the eupport of the Govern-ment there will be no necessity for bor-rowing money and increasing the publicdebt." 'But both of these observationsbeem to cast a reflection on the last Re-

publican Administration, when thp in-

come of the Government did not equalits necessary and proper expeditures,and when orders were given to preparean issue of bonds with which to meetthe lack of a sufficient revenue This isprimarily a reflection on Hairison, butMajor McKinley was largely if not chief-ly responsible for that legislation whichfailed to provide 'sufficient revenues forthe support of Government" during thelatter part of Harrison's term.
