r TURNTN'G GRAY AND THREATENED WITH BALDNESS The Sanger is Averted by Using i VIGOR "Nearly forty years afto, after ' some weeks of sickness, my liiiir turned gray and began falling out so rapidly that I was threatened with immediate baldness. Hearing Ayer's Hair Vigor highly spoken of. I commenced using this prepara- Mi'., Jit: :.::.: t.- tion, and was so well satisfied with Mie result that I have never tried any other kind of dressing. It stop ped the hair from falling out. stimu lated a new growth.of hair, and kept the scalp free from dandruff. Only an occasional application is now needed to keep my hair of good natural color.

Editor Chronicle : As you did me the honor of recogniz ing my communication yesterday and replying to it at some length, I make bold to ask for a little more space today, believing as I do that the issue is an im portant one and well worthy of our con sideration. In speaking of the relative commercial value of tbe two metals yes terday, I presume you mean that silver is now so much cheaper than formerly that it cannot be coined at the same ratio as before. It is just here that you .get the cart before the horse. Silver is worth as much as it ever was except when measured by gold. Silver is not worth lees, but gold is worth more on account of the exalted position it occu- Our own government created this 'breach between the two metals by de basing the one and exalting the other, Statistics show that there is less silver being produced now in proportion to gold than there was prior to '73. At the present time the two metals are being pioduced in the proportion of about 16 to 1, and at no time has silver exceeded this proportion to any great extent The doctrine that the white metal is be coming cheaper on account of over pro dnction is a snare and a delusion. Sil ver is not worth less, but gold is worth more exactly what was desired by those who caused silver to be demonet ized. What other object did they have except to enrich themselves? Will you tell me, Mr. Editor, why it was neces maw f f amrtnAti9a oil tr ax of alt a1 SUIJ WW U V VSaJ V V iV Dll T VI HV Oil (lUU create the greatest panic the world ever saw? It was a scheme on the part of those who had the gold, to destroy one' half of the money in order that tbe other b'alf should be worth twice as much. You may say that there is as much silver in circulation as ever. Very true, but it is not money in tbe true Bense of the word ; it is simply a commodity, the value of which is meas' ured by gold. Let our government re store silver to its true position among the metals; let us open our mints to its free coinage, and I believe that tbe parity of the two metals will take care of itself. What man is fool enough to sell so much silver at 60 cents when be can go to the mint and get a dollar for it Tne 60-cent dollar will then be a thing of the past. Our own ' mints being the market and offering 100 cents for it would certainly have a tendency to fix the price at about that figure. Perhaps you will say that free coinage would benefit only the debtor class at tbe expense ot the creditor. That is it exactly. That is just what we want. In 1873 the creditor classes were enriched at the expense of ' the debtor. Tnrn about is fair play. It is our turn now and we are going to win this tail just as sorely as the sun sbmes and truth prevails. " People are . getting more intelligent every day. Tbey are getting into the babit of reading both Bides of a question, and are gradually coming to the con elusion that our mints must be opened - - I -UUiTTH to eilyer as well as to gold before pros perity can return to aa. This, Mr. Edi tor is my honest opinion after giving the subject much thought, and studying both sides of tbe question for a numbfr of years fairly and conscientiously, .. bav- ng bad no preconceived ideas to warp my judgement. None but those who have gold to lend can consistently favor tbe single gold standard ', and then only for selfish reasons, not that it would benefit tbe great mass of people, especial- y those who earn their livelihood by their daily toil. Oar forefathers ceitain- ly did intend for silver to be a unit of value on an eqnality with gold or tbey would not have made it so. ' It fulfilled its mission admirably and I have never yet beard anyone give a ' good reason why it was demonetized. Tkuth Seeker.
