The American Farmer the Best in the World. The American farmer is the greatest man in the world to-day because he is master of the soil he is gaining in intelligence quite s rapidlv as his products are increasing in magnitude. Our recent combines of capital in United States measured in money are enormous, yet such figures sink into insig nificance when compared to the money, brain and brawn invested in agricultural industries. For instance, the farmers of Minnesota and Dakota have received $.?oo, 000,000 for their products in a single year. The farmer knows what Nature will bring forth for him from his experience in the pat. He knows, if certain seeds are planted and properly cared for that Nature will take care of the rest. In the same way you ac master 0 your own destiny. Proviinii your blood is in good order, it only needs -.i little effort on your own part to keep he;iUhy and strong rid your body of the po;oiis that are apt to accumulate and your system is ready to ward off the attack of the germs of disease. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes rich red blood by increasing the number of red blood eorpuscles. There is no alcohol in this great tonic to shrivel up the red blood corpuscles. As an alterative extract, made only of herbs and roots it goes about its work in nature's way. It stimulates the liver into proper action, and feeds the worn-out nerves, stomach and heart on pure blood. Used for over a third of a century it has sold more largely than any other blood medicine in the United States. More bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery are sold to-day than ever before that is a true test of its medicinal value after thirty-eight years of deserved popularity.

And Took wltl Them Som ot the Smart Conductor'! Ilard Enrned Cash. Four men were playing cards in the smoking compartment when the con ductor entered with the request: "Fares, gentlemen." Three of them quietly handed up tick ets, hut the fourth did not, and seemed to become suddenly embarrassed, re lates the Chicago Inter Ocean. "Fares!" said the conductor again, this time rather sternly. The passenger addressed responded with a series of spasmodic winks, and lairbd the backs of his cards signifi cantly when his three companions were out looking. ' Com, sir; I'm In a hurry," said the conductor. "I am sorry, sir, but I h&vent any ticket" "Pay your far, then; It costs only ten cents more." "Boys, will you allow him to take a rake-off?" inquired the delinquent of his fellow players. "Not much," was the unanimous an swer. "My money's all on the board," said the passenger, appealing to the conduc tor. "You'll have to get off at the next station, then." The man laid his cards face down and said in a low tone to the next player: ""What you you do?" "I raiBe you 20," was the reply. The man passed his hand up to the conductor. The latter gave It one glance. Then he relieved a fat pocket-book of two $20 bills and handed theui to the dealer. "We see your 20 and go you 20 be'tter," he said. The original raiser of f 20 shifted un easily in his seat. Matters were becom ing oomplicated. Finally he said: "I'll raise you ten." "Call him," said rho conductor, and handed over the money. The delinquent passenger called, and started to take in the money on four aces, when the other showed a straight flush and proceeded to fill his pockets with the money, which included the con ductor's. The latter was dazed. The delinquent passenger was meek and astonished. "Now, you'll hare to get off! " snapped the conductor. The train was just pulling Into a sta tion, and the whole party alighted. After the train had started again a pas senger remarked to the conductor: "Pretty slick crowd, eh? I saw 'em Cmtoh 'Bm Both Wars. The Chamberlain family in England is certainly in position to catch the pop ular sentiment "a-comin" an' a-gwlne," remarks the Baltimore American.

The National Live stock Association was rent in twain to day by the adoption of a new constitu tion which admitted the packers to membership and provided an open door through which the railroads of the country might at any time become factors in the control of the organiza tion. The cattlemen, horse and swine growers, together with the representa tives of the affiliated industries refused to agree to the new constitution and withdrew when they considered its adoption probable, and this afternoon formed a new organiz-ition under the name of "The American Stock-Growers Association." Roughly speaking, the sheep growers, commission men and stock yards inter ests remained with the National Live stock Association. The aotual growers of all other animals for market have gone with the new association. The defection came after a torrid sespion.
