CRISIS. p hell,” he shrieked: “you gimme
0 j my money outon that bank, dad-

Now, you fork over my money or

The cashier turned to thobook-
There is nothing on earth that
excites the average man more
than a financial panic and the
less money a fellow has the more
excited he usually becomes.
As an illustration of how excit-
ed some people will get over the I
• mcrest-runKir of a financial crisis, j keeper an(i inquired of him how
take the case of old. Hank Fuller, | much Hank had to his credit and
back in the 90s. Hank came in vva9 promptly informed that the
an ace of giving a good mule the amount was $7.50. Hank said
thumps by riding him eighteen that was correct, and the cashier
miles under whip and spur on aj filled out a chock for the amount
hot day in August in order to get|an(1 toi(j him to s;gI1 jt> whioh he
to town and withdraw the $7.501 (li(| in a iaborous manner. The
he had on deposit in one of the cash;er an,i bookkeeper went
banks before it went down with a
crash because some one had come
by his house and reported the
through their pockets and raised
the $7.50 in small ’change and
handed it to him. Hank counted
failure of a bank
City. Hank received the news
of the New York bank failure at
2 p. ni. while plowing in the field
and he became so excited that lie
.never took time to unharness his
team, but jumped on one of his
mules without a saddle and “lit”
out for town in a long lope.
There wore four or five of us
standing in front of the Citizens
and Farmers bank when Hank
dashed up on his mule, with the
trace chains dragging on the
ground. We saw at a glance that
he was awfully excited and sup-
posed he had come for a doctor
for some one who had happened
to some horrible accident. His
mule had his tongue out, was wet
1 or*' ‘the money over four or five times
before he was convinced that he
had not been cheated out of any
of his deposit. He then put it in
his pocket and heaved a sigh of
relief and remarked to the crowd
that had been attracted to the
bank by his wild appearance and
still wider talk: “When they
beat Hank Fuller, by gosh, they
have to git up before day. Yes,
siree, they can't beat me outen
my money.” Being well acquaint-
ed with him 1 asked him what the
trouble was and he told us how
he had caught onto the banks all
going to fail by the merest acci-
dent. and how he had taken time
by the forelock by jumping on
his mule and had come with the
and as he turned the corner he
looked back over his shoulder
and said: “You can’t fool your
uncle Hank, dadburn ye.’’
Just a few weeks ago when the
present financial panic struck (he
country and after our banks had
limited their depositors to a with-
drawal of $25 a day, one of the
most excited men I have ever met
was a fellow that had but $37.50
iu one of the banks in this town.
I was standing in a crowd of men
discussing the financial situation
when this fellow rushed up with
his shoes untied and his hair tan-
gled and began to harangue the
crowd on the great injustice and
tyrannical methods that had been
adopted by the banks in allowing
their depositors to withdraw but
$25.00 a day. Ho said that he
had hoarded up $37.50 and had
demanded his entire deposit but
had been informed by the cashier
that he could have but $25.00 a
day and that he would have to
wait until 9 o’clock the next day
before he could draw his other
$12.50. He was awfully excited
and said the whole thing had
been brought about to down the
poor depositor.
A few days after the panic I
interviewed a wood carver who
was carving stovewood for me at
the rate of 75 cents per cord, in
reference to the money panic
that was sweeping like a besom
of destruction over this fair land
of ours, and he informed me that
the whole thing was brought
about for the purpose of downing
and oppressing the poor man.
He also informed me that he had
no money in any bank, but if lie
had that he would take it out if
he had to wade through blood up
to his neck.
The strangest thing about the
money panic is that it was brought
about to ruin the speculator, tiic
capitalist, the merchant, the
banker, the mechanic,the laborer,
and last but not least, the Far-
mers Union man, who was told
last May that he must have fifteen
cents a pound for his. cotton.
To save my life I don't know
who is to blame for this great fi-
nancial panic, us everyone seems
to think that it was brought about
for the sole purpose of ruining
their own particular business. I
wrote J. Pierpont Morgan last
week and John D. Rockefeller la-
ter, asking them to please write
me, giving their views on the
recent financial crisis, and just as
soon as 1 hear from them I will
inform the public. The answer
to my inquiries from these two
authorities on the financial situ-
ation that now confronts the Uni-
ted States will appear in the Feb-
ruary issue of Joe sappington’s
Remarks and Arrow.

We refer to that boon to week, nervous,

Favorite Prescription.
Dr. John Fy fe one of the Editorial Staff
of Tub Eciicno Medical Review says

Of Golden Seal root, another prominent
Ingredient of "Favorite Prescription,”
Prof. Finley Elllngwood, M. D., of Ben-
nett Medical College, Chicago, says:
"It is an Important remedy In disorders of
the womb. In all catarrhal conditions * *
and general enfceblement. it Is useful.”
Prof. John M. Scudder, M. D., late of
Cincinnati, says of Qolden Seal root:
"In relation to Its general effects on the
system, there it no medicine in use about which
there it such atneral unanimity of opinion. It
le univertally regarded as the tonic useful In
alldebllltated states.”

Medical College, says of Golden Heal:
"Valuable in uterine hemorrhage, menor-
rhagia (flooding) und congestive dyanii-nor-

Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription faith-
fully represents all the above named In-

they are recotnmonded.

Wo asked him in one voice what

reply but fell off his mule and
ran into the bank, where we fol-

for the day and almost yelled at
the cashier, “Gimme my money,
