'SOB' ICC CD I M0 tU h T!e Toilers in Our Factories, 5'o v f .r'tnicn in the world can do so much r us;- the same intelligence that our own iaiLiican work-men and women are capa ble ot. Xhat is why America is now beating the world in manufac tures ; all due to the brain and muscle of our Yankee men and women. Unfortunately where there is saioke, dirt and dust and little sunlight there also can be found the germs of disease. Nature's great disinfec tant is sunlight. It is in the factory, the work shop, the office, that men and women suffer from diseases which are in the dust and the bad air. Such disease genus enter into the blood in two ways, either through the lungs or stomach. After years of experi ence in an active prac tice, Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., discovered a remedy that is a blood-maker and tissue-builder, .it the same time alleviates a cough, lie sailed it Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery an alterative extract that assists ;.n the digestion and assimilation of the food so that the blood gets its elements from the products of digestion, the liver at the same time is started into activity and there is perfect elimination of waste mat ter. The germs of grip, malaria, catairli or consumption find a fertile field if the body is not kept in perfect order ami the "blood pure. Becatfo ths stomach is diseased there is a diminution of the red corpuscles of the blood. This is why one is sleepless, languid, nervous and irritable. Sensitive stomachs groan aloud at the irritating cod hver oils, but they will get all the food tiemcnts the tissues require by using the Golden Medical Discovery." The " Discovery " is absolutely a non alcoholic "and non - narcotic medicine. There is nothing else "just as good." Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the best laxative for old and young people. They cure constipation and biliousness. tbPAlRlWU V7ALL AND CARPET. torn tagvestloM Which Mjr B of Vain to th Honaewlf mt j Thia Tiaa. Dents, spots and scratches upon cab inet wood torment the house-wifely conscience. To rerr"r? a dent, cover it with four thicknesp of wet paper, and set a blading hot iron on the paper for a minute.

It is, therefore, remarkable that the oldest-known ftiru, the archaeopteryx, has feathers as well dcvtJopt-d as in the existing repre sentatives of the class and similarly ar ranged. The animal is an elegant, slender bird, w hich is chiefly remark able for showing teeth in the jaws. About 12, fchort and conical, occur on ach side of the upper jaw. "The bird was larger than the robin ,"v, it body and had a tail of which there vvas a bony core some six inches m V-rg'th. The wings were quite as well developfd as the legs and there are ;ii. evidences that the former could - -applied to the ground as are the fore "iFjrs ef quadrupeds, although the feath ers show the wings to have been con structed on the same plan as the birds jf to-iny. 'The Solenhofen stone, in which so many of the remains of fishes, reptiles and insects are found, is the same as that used for lithographic purposes, beikg of exceeding close texture and ti remarkable smoothness when pre pared for its work." - m wytrrr iwo Men, Lost on the Desert, Slake a Dreadful DlHcovcry. It was the desert of Sahara, says the New York Journal. All day long the torrid sun had Hashed down his blinding rays upon the yellow sands till they seemed to gleam with the terrible heat. As far as tin eye could reach there was no sign of vegetation, nothing but sand, sand, sand, till the vision grew weary. Iv the sky, like specks of blackness-, vul tures hung suspended, circling around and around while they scanned the plain, for some new victim of the heat, for another man or animal whose de caying flesh might satisfy their loath some appetites. Ever and anon, too, a one proceeded, could be seen the bones of those who had gone before bleached white by the aw ful heat. And in the midst of the stillness, the desolation and the heat, two wayfarers were wandering on. Their hands were empty, for their provisions were long exhausted and they had long since thrown aside their guns as useless in cumbrances. On and on they trudged, maddenc1 bv their tcr.vi'.lc1 hunger and thirst. v?!n?n sudderlj- they perceived a mass of rook which ror? directly in their path. There was a natural opening. Through it thev rusihed. "Water!" A horrible cry of loathing and disap nointment a cry with no trace of hope or care for the future rang through the rocky garden. Then the two tramps fled.

BUILDING IDEAS FROM JAPAN. Qui ok Work by Manual Laborer la V Lt ntMMl by an A inert -Ml Contractor. After an expenditure of several thousand dollars and four months A time in order to win a wager of .f'U from his friend, Cliariu-s VY. Cir.dele. that he could not stay away from C:;i eago long enough for a trip to tiie r'nt pven if he were not afraid t crost the Pacific, C-V-Otractor Joseph Downey is home again, uncertain still as to whether he may n t have picked up an idea or two in Yokohama that would be applicable to building in Chicago, report the Inter Ocean. "I never aw anything more inter esting in the contracting line than in an excavation of about 30,000 yards of earth in Yokohama," he says. "At a first glance at the work there are endless miles of laborer moving in slow lines, each man with a pole over his shoulders to the ends of which are slung two small baskets. The diggers at work in the pit shovel three spades full of dirt into each of these baskets, and with this 'load' the man moves on after those filing away in front, dumping his baskets finally a full quarter of a mile away. "Talk about machine labor. In Nagasaki harbor I saw long lines of women and girls, using baskets, pass 1,400 tons of coal into the hold of our steamer in less than seven hours. "The novelty of this was the woman and girl labor. The men did the shoveling of the coal into the baskets. These baskets were rounded on the bottom and without handles. As soon as one of them was filled il was picked up by a woman and passed in a twinkling to the next woman in line, and so on, till up the steep steps of the deck th basket would reach the hole in the side of the steamer, through which the coal would be dumped into the hold. It was an example of the humanizing of the eleTator system and there was not a break in the chain in those seven hours of loading. I don't know what the time is for such work as this in Chicago, but this looked like fast enough work for anj place on the map." German t'ldd Guns Unsatisfactory. Although adopted only a few years ago, the euHie qaiek-flnna field artillery of Germany baa ben condemned, and it is to be replaced by field guns similar to those ued by the Japanese. Id the selection of a family medioine the peo ple of our own country have also rade mistakes. They have been deceived time and again into trying this or that remedy in the hope of obtainiog a on re but without success. Not bo. however, with those who seleot Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, for in it they found good health and happiness. Batter, by far, than anything else for the core of indigestion, dyspepsia, conatipatioo, biliousness, chills, colda, la grippe, spring fever, impure blood, torpid liver and female complaints. That's why so many people stick to it so faithfully and why we nrge you ajainto try a bottle this spring. I'pper River Steamers. Steamboats in connection with the portage railroad are to be operated on the upper river by a company to be in corporated in Portland. At a meeting of the open-river execuMve committee ii Portland this conclusion was reached, although details have not been worked oat by the commitlee. The meeting was attended by J. A. Smith, president of the association, W J. Mariner, Henry Ilahn and J. N. Teal. At this forenoon's session the situation was discussed and reports from the up per river were reviewed. It was decid ed tint while there are probabilities of the organization of upper river steam boat companies and the operation of company boats and individually owned craft in the trade, there is not a suffi cient carta'mty of these developments, and in order to guarantee immediate steamboat service as soon 88 the port a :e t oad is opened there must be a com pany formed in which men who feel a direct interest in the wtlfare of the in land empire, and the success of the portage road project will assist. The meeting adjourned at noon, and another session was he'd this af'e-noon, at which details of an, organization were discussed. The up--iver members of the commit tee reported no definite enterprises in the line of riyor transportation facilities 1 y individuals or new coi panies. It is reported that the 0. R. & M. Co. has given orders for the building of one or two boats to enter the upper river trade. The people of the inland empire are ready to assist in any business propor tion backed by capitftl or prpetieil steamboatmen to develop competi-.io -in river transportation. 3 Montana sheepmen are offered 20 cents for their wool, but are holding it for 25c ah ICditor's Opinion of tlie Koynl Uorge Jvlyth Toz-e.
