Golden Medical Discovery cares ev
ery one of them. It prevents them,
too. Take it, as you ought, when
you feci the first symptoms (lan

from something serious.
In building up needed flesh and
strength, ana to purify and enrich
the blood, nothing can equal the
Discovery." It invigorates the
liver and kidneys, promotes all the

guaranteed, to benefit or cure, or

SUPERSTITIOUS POSTALCLEFiKS
Mail Sacks That Have Been in an Acci
dent Are Sought After. 1
A gToup of railway postal clerks, just
in from a run, stood in the transfer of
fice at the Pennsylvania station the
other morning1, waiting for the cable
car to start up in order to get home,
says the Washington News..
. "Tell you, felt a bit scary on this
trip," observed one of the men as he
knocked the ashes from his pipe and
glanced at the clock.
"What was the matter? Inspector on
the car?" asked one. "Flat wheel?"
queried another. -'-'
"Worse than that. Forgot my red.
Left it in the office. First time for six
months."
"Where did you get yours?" asked
the tall man with the sandy beard.'
"I've had it a long time. Cub gave
it to me, and he got it from the 'Fat
Nancy' wreck," was the reply.
Just then the whirl of the cable be
came audible in the clear morning ah
and the mail slingers made- a run for
the avenue. ,
"What's a red?" was asked of a clerk
who was still lounging in the room.
For reply he opened his valise and
drew out a dingy red mail sack. It
was a plain canvas pouch, such as is
used for mail matter of the lower
classes, and, save for the color, did not
differ from any one of the 100,000 or so
that the government owns.
"Once in awhile we have a little
smashup, j-ou know,'.' he said, "and oc
casionally some of the boys get hurt,
or worse. Our cars are pretty danger
ous places in the event of an accident,
and, if there is any damage, .why, it's
usually felt most in the mail or ex
press car. It jc-n"t of ten . that they
arc serious, but now and then one of
the boys gets smashed, and then there
is naturally some blood around, and it
gets on the mail sacks. ' In the old days
the government very considerately
used to put such seeks out of use, for
you can't get the stain out. Then some
genius conceived the notion of dyeing
them red, but that only served to mark
them. "
"Every business has its supersti
tions," he continued, "and I guess we
are no exception, for some of us have
an idea that it is lucky to have a red in
the car. I don't know why,. . I'm sure,
unless it is on the principle that the
same sack will not be in two bad acci
dents. . So when one comes our way we
freeze onto it, and try to kecrf it handy.
"Of course," he continued, rather
shamefacedly, "it seems like a queer
kind of feeling to have a reminder of
that sort around. . but it's all . in the
way you look at it, and there are lots
of things just as foolish other people
do." ' - '
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.
A Sportsman, Sporting Man, and a Sport
' Not the Same Thing:.
There were a knot of men standing
on a street corner, says the Washington
Post One of them had just finished re
lating some experiences of a hunting
excursion which he had taken the day
previous down the river.
"Ko you're a sporting man, are you,
Jack? I never knew that before,
really," said one of his eorapanioh'3., .
"No, sir," said the first speaker, "I ,
am not a sporting man; I am a sports
man, but I am neither a sporting man
nor a sport." . v
"Indeed! And where, pray, is the
difference?"
"The difference? Why, great Scott,
man, there is' as much distinction be
tween a sportsman, and a. sport.iug
man, and a sport as there is between a
doctor, a cannibal, and a thief I"' The
speaker glared at the others, but the
first man still looked blank.
"Pray define it then," he said after a
pause. . - - '.
"To be sure. It's something that
everybody ought to know, but unfortu
nately lots of folks never take the
trouble to learn those things. -A sports
man is a man who' loves sport in its
truest sense. At least I so consider it.
He is a man who enjoys hunting, fish
ing, camping out, and is commonly
fond of other athletic amusements in
the way of boating, swimming, and
the like.' Ho is, pardon my opinion,
apt to be a man of gentlemanly in
stincts and brains. A sporting man is
an entirely different sort of a fellow.
He is one who takes an interest in. sports
of different sorts, although he may not
engage in any of them p.t all. He prob
ably plays tho races, drinks hard, takes
in all the prize fights, and spends most
of his evenings, when there is nothing1
else on hand, playing cards and whoop
ing things up. Hut .a sport is on a still
lower scale. He is a fellow who thinks
he's big potatoes when he's really noth
ing but a runt. He need not know any
thing about sports or engage in them
either. His reputation will be won
chiefly by his loud dress, his flirtations
with the girls, his hanging around sa
loons, and his "general worthlessness.
No, sir; there are a good many persons
who are proud to be called sporting
men or sports, but to call a true sports
man by such a term is little short of an
insult." ; - . -... -
" An'OdorlesR Region. "
VIn that country once known as the
Great American Desert,' embracing a
portion of Texas and Arizona, there are
no odors," said a citizen of Dallas to a
Cincinnati Enquirer reporter. ''There
luscious grapes and many- other fruits
grow, especially near the cross timber,
country, but there is no perfume; wild
flowers have no smell, and carcasses of
dead animals, which in" dry seasons are
very plentiful, emit, no odor.' It was
always supposed to be a treeless plain,
upon which no plant could grow or
breathing thing could live, but a large
par of it is now successfully cultivated,
and but for the rarity of the atmos
phere, causing the peculiarity -j have
named, and the "mirages, which are
even mora perfect than in the Desert of
Sahara, no one would look upon it as a
barren country now. Another singu
lar feature common to the desert land
is that objects at a great distance ap
pear greatly magnified. A few scraggy
mesquite bushes will look like a noble
forest; stakes driven into the ground
will seem like telegraph poles. ".
