WANTED,

By F. E. Belden

Every reader of this paper to send for my non-partisan treatise on the great money issue now before the American people,—no less a question than the Monopoly of Money, or Contraction of Currency, the satanic twin of Monopoly of Religion, or Contraction of Creed, both of which, hand in hand, led the world into the dungeon of the Dark Ages, and both of which have been for twenty-five years repeating in our own country the history of that accursed time when the people were bound hand and foot by Greed and Creed, and delivered to the tormentors, Poverty and Bigotry, "until a time, times and the dividing of times" brought the era of the "new nation."

I have recently been devoting my attention exclusively to the subject, and have very important matter to present to every lover of civil and religious liberty. The treatise is prepared for circulation outside of denominational lines, but I am anxious that every Christian shall understand the issue, lest having fought the Monopoly of Religion or Contraction of Creed, we ignorantly err in favor of its historical accomplice, Monopoly of Money or Contraction of Currency.

The contents of the treatise embraces: (a) Part 1 of "The Bond and the Dollar," a non-partisan historical sketch, by Prof. John Clark Ridpath, L.L.D., author of "History of the World," "History of the United States," etc.; (b) a large department of non-partisan patriotic songs in behalf of the rights of the people, combining pointed facts and arguments, set to old and new music; (c) a "Dialogue on the Dollar," between the writer and his child, in words of one syllable as nearly as possible, so that "a way-faring man, tho a fool, need not err therein;" (d) a collection of authentic statistics on the money and labor questions.

Price, 25 cents. During the month of October I will furnish it at about cost,—10 cents, postpaid. Postage stamps received.

Address, F. E. Belden, 6084 Ingleside Ave., Chicago, Ill.
