THE BUSINESS MAN'S LUNCH.
Hard Work end Indigestion go
Hand In Hand.
Concentrated thought, continued hi. robs
the stomach of necessary blood, and this is
also true of hard physical labor.
When a five liorse-pou-er engine is made
to do ten horse-power work something; is
going to break. Very often the hard
worked man comitiT from the field or the
office will "bolt " his food in a few rain
utes which will tafce honrs to digest Then
too, many foods arc about as useful in the
stomach as a key; of nails would be in s
fire under a Ixiilc-r. The ill-nsed stomach
refuses-to-do its work without the proper
stimulus which it gets from the blood and
nerves. The nerves arc weak and "ready
to break," because they do not get the
nourishment tlicy require from the blood,
finally the ill-used brain is morbidly wide
awake when the overworked man at
tempts to find rest in bed.
The application of common sense in the
treatment of the stomach and the whole
system br'mars to the busy man the fall en
joyment of life aud healthy digestion when
lie takes Ilr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to
relieve a bilious stomach or after a too
hearty meal, and Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery to purify, enrich and
vitalize the blood. The " Pellets " are tiny
snjrar-coared pills made of hrf-hly concen
trated vegetable ingredients which relieve
the stomach of all ofTcnding matters easily
and thoroughly. They need only be taken
for a short lime to cure tho biliousness,
constipation and nlollifttltieKH. or torpor, of
the liver; then the "Medical Discovery"
should 1! taken in tcaspoonful doses to in
crease the blood and enrich it It has a
peculiar effect iipbn the lining membranes
of the stomach mid towels, toning up and
streiigtheiiine; th-.-m for all lime. The
whole system f.els the effect of the pare
blood coursing through the body and the
nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not
deadened, or put to nlccp, as the :.catlcd
celery compounds and nerve mixtures do
but refreshed and fed on the food thejr
need for health. If you suffer from indi
gestion. dyspepsia, nervousness, and any
of the ills which come from impure blood
and disordered rlomach, you can cure
yourself with Dr. fierce s i.oicicn Aleclical

her a few nights since In tbe presence of a
New York Sun reporter that she knew
several other women in San Francisco who
had tiny but brilliant diamonds set In
their teeth, and sho did not see why tho

As this is the first time that any one
has publicly displayed diamonds In this
fashion In New York, It may be well u
stato that English papers have fur six
months Insisted that tha setting of dm
inonds In teeth is a custom widely preva

womon. Tho papers have commented so
much upon it that tha news is apparently
well grounded that numberless people, have
added to tho vulue of their smiles in this

ANCIENT LIGHTHOUSES.
Beacon Light to Ouldo Mariner Coeval
With tho Earlleat Comnwroa.
Beacon lights to guido tho wave
toreed mariner to a safe harbor must
havo been almost coeval with the earli
est commerce. There is positivo record
that lighthouses wore built in anciont
times, though fow evidences now re
main to us from old writers or iu crum
bled ruins. This is not strange, for light
towers, never the most stable architec
tural form, were exposed to tho storms
of ica and war.
The Greeks attributed the first light
houses to Hercules, and he was consid
ered tho protector of voyagers. It is
claimed by some that Homer refers to
lighthouses in tho nineteenth book of
the "Iliad."
Virgil mentions a light on a temple
to Apollo which, visible far ont at sea,
warned end guided mariners. Tho Co
lossus at Rhodes, erected about 800 li.
CL, is saitt to have shown a signal light
from its uplifted band.
Tho oldest towers known were built
by tho Libyans iu lower Egypt They
wero temples also, and tho lightkeepcr
priests taught pilotage, hydrography
and navigation. Tho famous tower on
tho islo of Pharos, at Alexandria, built
about 2SS B. O., is tho first lighthouse
of undoubted record. This tower, con
structed by Sostratns, tbe architect, was
equaro in plan, of great height and built
in offsets. An open brazier at tbe top
of the tower contained the foe for the
light At Dover and Boulogne, on ei
ther sido of tho English channel, wore
ancient lighthouses built by the Romans.
Bnt the lighthouse at Cornnna, Spain,
bnilt in the reign of Trojan and recon
structed in 1C34, is believed to be the
oldest existing lighthouse. & P.

Tha Drag fetor Telephone
"Accommodation bureaus are all right
when they are conducted as such, " said
a west side druggist, "but the sign over

public that drugs were dispensed within

I make no kick when stamps are asked

The. Hereditary Interlopers,
I have always held that the very exist
ence of a house of hereditary legislators
is an intolerable abuse, and consequently
that the couutry has a right to make nse
of every constitutional form to binder
the lords from interference with tbe
popular will. Who represent the popu
lar will? Assuredly its representatives.
If, then, the elected representatives of
the nation decide in favor of home rale,
the lords are guilty of an act of leza
majeste to the people if they interpose
their veto. What can be more ridicu-.
Ions than that a few hundred men soma
hereditary legislators, some legislators
bemuse tbey have made huge fortunes by
selling beer or by some similar avoca
tionshould pretend to know belter than
the nation what tbe nation wants?
The true method to proceed with sncb
obstructionists is, if tbey throw ont the
borne rule bill to bring it in again in an
antuinn session and tuck it on to the ap
propriation bill. If this be done home
rule will become tbe law of tbe land be
fore the end of this year. If ft be not
done I yeaily do not know when it will
become law. I am aick of half measures
with these hereditary interlopers. Lon

hever met anything thit did ma oniuch
good as Hood's Huniaparilla. 'Exi-srlnice

listen to a druggist who claimed to have

another medicsne. If I had thrown my

gainer." Jon HaASfTon, care of John
