Some people are always looking for trouble, are always suspicious and consequently are always in trouble. The man or woman who goes about with chip on shoulder daring everyone to knock it off is constantly in hot water, as well as they should be. A widow in Maryland was astonished at finding her lover caught in a bear trap, set to catch meat thieves. The fellow was court ing her and carring off a ham or a shoulder of meat each visit as a souvenir and she burned the trap and married the fellow to save her bacon. Prof. Crampton, of Columbia University, has discovered that it is possible to ingraft part of one insect's body upon part of another insect. This is a great scheme. Why not combine insects so as to eliminate the south end of wasps and the north end of mosquitoes? The man who, on one occasion, went, to President Cleveland and said: "Sir if you will give me the battleship Indiana and orders to go to Havana and settle this mat ter, I will guarantee that Spanish will lie the only language spoken in hell for the next six mouths”, is now captain of the battleship lowa.

One dose has always been sufficient, although I use it freely. Any cold my children contract yields very readily to this medicine. I can conscientiously recommend it for croup and colds in children,— Geo. E. Wolff, Clerk of the Circuit (Jourt^ Fernandina, Fla. Sold by Smith & Yager. f The star spangled banner floats over nearly one-tenth of the earth’s dry land. One twentieth of the number of the people in the world give proud and loving allegience. | Inconceivably more men have fought for it than any other in existence. Many more men have died for it than any other flag. That which it represents has brought more happiness, prosperity and moral elevation to the greater number of people than any other flag. Mr. Ward L. Smith, of Frederickstown, Mo., was troubled with chronic diarrhoea for over thirty years. He had become fully satisfied that it was only a question of a short time until he would have to give up. He had been treated by some of the best physicians in Europe and America but got no permanent relief. One day he picked up a newspaper and chanced to read an advertisement of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He got a bottle of it, the first dose helped him and its continued use cured him.

Even China, Chile and Argentine bonds are preferred to Spain’s. The calculations upon which these statements are based was made by the London Statist some time ago. It is probable that the recent decline in Spanish bonds put them clear down to the bottom of the list, with a considerable margin between them and the next highest. Robbed the Grave A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated bv him as follows- “I was in a most d’readful condition. My skin was almost yellow.eyessunken, tongue coated, pain continually in my back and sides, nc appetite,gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying Electric Bitters: and to mv great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. 1 continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them only 50 cents a bottle at Page Blackburn’s drug store.

CATARRH SIX YEARS. Grew Rapidly Worse Doctors Did No Oood. Mrs. A.’?m Staats, Mequon, Wis., in a recent letter 1 to Dr. Hartman,

& 1 1' JkPtKI

writes: “I write this letter because of my sympathy for suffering people. For six years I suffered with chronic catarrh. Wh e n e v e r I caught a cold I would have a severe spell of

sickness. I used different catarrh medicines and the doctors did all the) could, but the relief was only temporary. In December, 1897,mycondition became very bad. I could not speak aloud: I had a terrible cough, profuse expectoration and frequently spit blood; night sweats and extreme emaciation. I was sure I must die of consumption. The catarrh seemed to have spread all over my body; my head, throat, nose, bladder and womb. At this time I received a book con cerning Pe-ru-na. I immediately wrote to Dr. Hartman, who prescribed Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin. I followed his directions strictly. I began to improve with the first bottle, and during the time that I took the medicines I gained twenty’ pounds. I feel as well now as anyone could possibly feel. lam sure I would have been dead long ago had it not been for Dr. Hartman’s advice and medicine." Every woman should have a copy of Dr. Hartman’s latest book entitled "Health and beautv." Sent free by The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Company, Columbus, Ohio. It is safe that everyone who takes a newspaper reads tl.e ads. True, there are some old fogies who think thev do not, and they will always lie old fogies. Let any- business man who has doubts on the subject, announce that he will give a real bargin in any line of goods and no matter in what obscure part of the paper the announcement appears the public will find it and nab up the bargins. Remarkable Rescue Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield. 111., makes the statement, that she caught cold which settled on her lungs; she was treated for a month by her family physician but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. Kings New Discovery for consumption: she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself benefited from the first dose. She continued its use andafter taking six fettles, found herself sound and well: now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was. I ree trial fettles of this Great Discovery at Page Blackburn drug store. Large bottles 50 cents and §1.(10.
