Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork,'' was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that flit is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scot t's Em ulsion is the mod
ern method of feeding flit to
the consumptive. I'ork is too
roiiiih for sensitive stomachs.
Scott's Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feediiv' 'him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott's Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hvpophos
phites in Scott's Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lun :rs.
A sample will bo
sent five upon leanest.

The man who puts on stilts does not in
crease his actual stature by the breadth of
a hair. He feels taller while he's on the
stilts, and when he's off them he feels
shorter than he ever
felt. Stimulants are
the stilts of the stom
ach. They make a
man feel better for the
time being, hut he
feels a great deal worse
for them afterward.
The need of the man
whose stomach is
"weak" is not stimu
lation but strength.
Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery
perfectly answers that
need. It cures the dis
eases of the digestive
and nutritive system
which make the stom
ach "weak." It en
ables the digestion and
assimilation of food, so
that the body receives
the nutrition on which
depends its strength.
"I took two bottles ol
Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery for stomach
trouble," writes Clarence
Carues, Esq., Taylorstown,
Loudoun Co., Va. "It did
me so much good that I
didn't take any more. I
can eat most anything
now. I am so well pleased
with it I hardly know how to thank you for your
kiud information. I tried a whole lot of things
before I wrote to you. A gentleman told me of
your medicine, and how it cured his wife.
Thought I would try a bottle of it. Am now
glad that I did, for I do not know what I should
nave done had it not been for Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery."
The sole motive for substitution is to
permit the dealer to make the little more
profit paid by the sale of less meritorious
medicines. He gains; You lose. There
fore' accept no substitute for "Golden
Medical Discovery."

Try Tkls Drop a Peamy.
Have you ever noticed the Interest
that money attracts even if It ls only
a single cent? The next time that you
see a copper coin dropped in a street
car just observe. Every eye in tlic
car will turn to the spot where it
dropped, and there will be manifested
a real geneial concern over its recov
ery. Two or three heads are likely
to come in con tact over the point of its
disappearance, and then their owners
will draw suddenly back and try to
epponr unconcerned, but in another
second t'.toy are again leaning forward.
Ti' man who dropped the cent is
usu:, liy tlii; first who appears to have
brushed memory of the trivial occur
rence aside, but just as soon as the
eyes in the car liave turned from him
his own are sure to go back to the
floor in the hope that the truant coin
Will be seen.
When he has gone, there is a re
newed interest among the passengers,
for the stage of "tinders keepers" has
arrived, and those near the spot of
disappearance become quite diligent
until they are aware they make a cen
ter of attraction. But interest in that
little coin is not lost while there is a
passenger left, and when the car Is
empty the conductor takes his turn
and resurrects the cent. New York
Herald.

An elderly minister is fond of telling
of a "break" he once made at a double
wedding of two sisters. It was ar
ranged that the two couples should be
married with one ceremony, the two
brides responding at the same time
nnd the two bridegrooms doing the
same. There hud not been any pre
vious rehearsal, as the minister had
come a long distance and had reached
the church but a few minutes before
the time for the ceremony.
All went well until it came time for
the minister to say, "And now I pro
nounce you man and wife."
It suddenly became obvious to the
minister that the usual formula would
not do in the case of two men and two
wives, and he could not think of any
way of making "man" and "wife"
plural in the sentence. In his despera
tion and confusion he lifted his hands
and said solemnly: '
"And now 1 pronounce you, one and
all, husband and wife"''
A lift and It Oddx.
A notorious pnublc-r, who died some
time ago, once wagered a thousand dol
lars to one that six would not be
thrown with a pair of dice ten times
in succession. His offer was taken up
by a fellow clubman. The dice were
brought, and his opponent actually
threw six nine times In succession. The
gambler then offered $470 to be free
of the bet. The other man declined,
had his tenth throw and failed to get
another six.
Just to show how very little the av
erage man knows about the doctrine
of chances a well known mathematic
ian has pointed out the real odds about
this bet. The chances were no less
than G0,4t;t,173 to 1 against six being
thrown ton times in succession; there
fore the real bet should have been
about $000,000 to 1 cent against such a
thing happening. Pittsburg Gazette.

"Well, .James, how are you feeling
today';" said the minister to one of his
parishiomrs, mi idd man suffering
from chronic rheumatism. "You are
uot looking as lu-isk as usual."
"Na, sir," replied the old fellow sad
ly. "I've been gey unfortinit the day."
"How, James':"
"Weel, sir, I got a letter fra a Glasca
lawyer body this uioruln' tellin' me
that ma cousin .lock was deid an' that
hediad left me twa bunner poun'."
"Two hundred pounds:" repeated the
minister. "Ami you call that hard
luck? Why. it Is quite a fortune for
you, James."
"Aye," said the old man sorrowfully,
"but the stipid lawyer holy didna pit
eucuch stamps on bis letter, an' 1 had
a hale saxpenee to pey for extra post
age." London Tit-Hits.

Ill the arid lands of central Asia the
nlr Is reported us often laden with
fine detritus, which drifts like snow
around conspicuous objects and tends
to bury them in a dust drift. Even
when there is no apparent wind the air
Is described as thick with line dust,
and a yellow sediment covers every
thing. In Kliotan this dust sometimes
so obscures the sun that at midday
one cannot see to read tine print with
out a lamp.
Varnish From Senweeil.
A kind of seaweed which Is plentiful
ou the coast of Chinu furnishes an ad
mirable glue a:id varnish. When dried,
it is waterproof, and it is employed to
fill up the interstices in bamboo net
work, of which windows are frequent
ly constructed in that country. It is
also utilised to strengthen and varnish
paper lanterns.

It is not necessary to g to see him ; in a lew diseases where surgery is required or

conditions can be cured at home. He has a perfect system for home treatment;
he always answer your letters in plain envelope and keeps every case a profound
