that something is the matter with heart or lungs. Off they rush to the physician's office and have themselves examined, no matter how big the fee may be.
The stomach is usually the last care of man or woman.
When the digestion is impaired, when 'he blood is poor, when a weakness of body is joined to worry of mind, when consumption is invited by the condition of the lungs and blood, then there is a real scarc.. What is to be done to purify and vitalize tne blood? What will stop that hacking cough and strengthen the weak lungs?
Hr. Pierce's Golden Medi&al Discovery cures ninety-eight per cent, of such cases. It strengthens weak lungs and cures obstinate lingering cough, bronchitis, bleeding of the lungs and kindred ailments, which, neglected or unskillfully treated, lead up to consumption.
My wife had hemorrhage of the lungs," writes W. A. Sanders, Esq., of Hern, Mason Co., w. Va. "She had ten hemorrhages, and the people all around here said she would never be 5?e)' again. But she began to take I)r. I'ierce'j 'jOKlen Medical Discovery, and soon began to Sain ®tfenSth

Laudanam Proof.
ANOTHERdays
case of desperation,
caused, perhaps, by too much "McKinley prosperity,"occurred a few ago in this city. Jack Grifhu, late of Danville, 111, undertook to cross the Styx by the laudanam route, filling himself first with a large amount of barrel house illuminating oil, sold as whisky, and then proceeded to irrigate with the laudanum! the two seemed to have an affinity, and the stomach of M\ Grillin was undisturbed by the mess, lie went home and sadly announced to his wife that he had telephoned for the boat and that he would soon be on his way to kingdom come. She in turn telephoned for the doctor, who discovered that Mr. Griffin was an immune to both poison and emetics. He had to give up the job of poisouing himself, and if he crosses over will be compelled to use rope or shot gun.

"It will re quire about, fifty thousand enumerators." writes Clifford Howard in the November Ladies Home .Journal, to take the census, and their work must be finished in one month's time, or by the first week of July. 1900. That means that about seventv-iive million people must be recorded in thirty days, or at the rate of two and a half million a day. The rate will be even greater than this, however, for in owns and cities of eight thousand inhabitants the enumeration must be 'completed within two weeks. The enumerators will not be permitted to have any assistance in the work it must be done by them in person, except in such sections of the country as contain a great many foreigners where the employment of interpreters will t)e allowed, as otherwise it would be next to impossible to secure tne I necessary data. The enumerators will he paid for their services in accorda nee with the amount of work they nre called upon to do."
