(Mm MIMi The Secret of Long Life and JHow to Overcome Waste. To n K'kozc thysrlf," is to take advantage '.f life's secrets" and equip one's self with armor which will successfully resist the attack of disease in the battle of life. The old idea of fate or "kismet," and that a person al ways dies when his time comes, is now exploded. Every mechanism, wheth er made by God or man. has a definite amount of wear and its life can be lengthened 01 shortened according- to the care thai is given it. If ac cident or careless ness destroys the works of the watch or the human mechanism an end comes 4o its usefulness, but it has not actually 'worn nut" Man's system at times grets fusty like the wheels of the watch and -only needs a little cleaning and oiling to put it in shape for life's battles. An imitation of nature's method of rc sSoring waste of tissue and impoverish ment of the blood and nervous force is used when you take an alterative extract nf herbs and roots, without the use of alco hol, like Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery, tins vegetable medicine coaxes the digestive functions and helps in the issimila".ion of food, or rather enables the orpins t'j take from the food just the nutriment the blood requires. Prof. J. K. Tauguay, of 61 St. Peter Street. Que liec, writes : " I had been ill for some time with La Grippe and did not tegniri my strength. With in a w(c after using Dr. Pierce's Golden Med lical Discovery, I was able to be around again, and 1 found that my system was entirely free from any of the bad elK-cts of La Grippe. I now keep a bottle of the 'Golden Medical Dis covery ' on hand, and, w hen I catch cold, take a few doses, which keeps me in perfect health. As a builder up of lost strntfth and vitality 1 do not believe your 'Discovery' has an equal." Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical Discovery."

FIUIIAKS. n co in Obscurity lie lias Itisen to (rent Prominence. A little more than 10 years ago 'diaries Warren Fairbanks was hardly thought of as a factor in political life. "Yet in 1892 he was made chairman of the Indiana republican convention, and one year later received the entire vote of his party in the legislature for the United States senatorship. The vote, liowever, was not large enough to elect, la 1807 his election came, and Jscarcely even years after his appearance in In diana politics he was talked of for the ugliest honors in the gilt of the people it the United States. Senator Fairbanks is a native of Ohio, .jAving been born at Unionville Center, that state in 1852. He was graduated ;rom Ohio Wesleyan university at the sze of 20 and began Ins career as a newspaperman. Through the influence of his uncle, William Henry Smith, 1 1' esi-lrnt of the Associated Trees at bat time, be secured a position with viiat organization at Pittsburg. He :'o;id 1 time to practice journalism and law at the same time, and soon ifter Le became a graduate of law his ll'ility secured for him the position of -solicitor for the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad. His success in corporation !;iw gave him a wide reputation, and at the time uf his election to the senate he 'vas known as one of the most skillful vailroa'l attorneys and financiers of the Test. ion afer his election to ths senate a ti:2h compliment was paid to Mr. Fair unks by his appointment as chairman :' ihe I'nited States branch of the Anglo American joint high commission. 1'he i it-t ions that the commission was expected to consider were of the higt "U irnp 'iUtice, and their natire was -cu'h a to demand not only a profound .t no wlt-d .:. of law, but the theory and ; acti'vj ot diplomacy. Throughout the 'r-inz negotiations of the joint com ..rieeion, Senator Fairbanks conducted 1 e ca-'i; of the I'nited ta'es in such a vay p." to command the respect of the .Jr'tish and Cananadian commissioners tnd to retain their cordial personal re-jdi-l at:d ood will.

Montana remains at the head of the wool-producing states of the Union. The report of the acting statistician of the department of agriculture shows that this state has more sheep than any other state in the Union. The report indicates that Montana has 5,270,063 sheep, having an average value of .f 2.31 a head when the estimate was made. Wyoming is second with 4,002,058 head, with an average value of $2.58 a head. New Mexico is third with 3.S00, 460, with an average value of if 1.93 a head. Idaho is fourth on the list with 3,58S,031, $2.21 a head. Next in order are Ohio, Oregon, Cali fornia and Michigan, each above the 2, 000,000 mark. Colorado, Texas, Wiscon sin, New York and Arizona each have more than 1,000,000. The most interesting thing about the sheep census is the fact that the 51,630, 144 head in the country shows a decrease of 12,334.732 head. That is a shrinkage in numbers that is highly important to flock raisers all over the land. The total number of sheep reported in the United States lad vear was 63,964,876. The Flag of Victory.

She Can Farm. Connecticut farmers, who continually bemoan that the old state is used up for farming, may learn something to their advantage by consulting pretty Miss Bertha i.. Weed, who makes monev till ing a tough little farm in the town of North Canton. Miss Weed superin tends all the operations on her place, is up with the sun every day, raises stock, sells milk and butter and has a big yard full of some of the best fowls in the state. What is still more wonderful, she has learned how to make money in the -risky business of raising spring chickens for market. She makes a small fortune yearly selling eggs. Some of them are extraordinarily large. She presented a couple of them to the editor of the Hartford Courant this week. They weighed half a pound apiece, and are the biggest hens' eggs reported in the state this season. New York Sun. Getting Money to Go Shopping. A well known artist, whose studio ia In New York, but whose home is in a pleasant village an hour's ride from the metropolis, promised faithfully one morning that he would do some shopping for his wife. On arriving at his studio he found that he had money enough in his pocket for his lunch and no more. What to do about the shopping? Sud denly he bethought himself of an order for an illustration that he had received from a magazine. He set to work, and in less than two hours had finished the drawing, collected .f 00 for it at the pub lisher's office and had started on the more exhaustive labor of shopping. New York Sun. Mamminii a Hour, To slam a door may be an evidence of bad temper or bad manners, but it ia also a popular superstition that slam ming a door is wicked. This belief is undoubtedly duo to a supposition t-nter-tained by many nations that the souls of the departed hover about the place where they departed from their bodies. Th Indians of this country frequently howleii and beat the air with brushwood in or der to drive away the spirit of the pris oner thoy had just killed. The negroes of the Congo abstain from sweeping out their huts for a year after a death has occurred for fear that the dust may interfere with the spirit of the departed. It is in northern Europe that the superstition concerning the slamming of a dour arose, the fear being euter tainod that some Fpirit might be caught in the slamming.
