Every Seven Years. Psychologists
say. the human body is entirely changed and
renewed. Every moment Of our lives, every
part of our bodies is wearing out and is being
built up anew Of fresh matter. This work is
accomplished hy the blood which goes through
every pant. But if the blood becomes weak or
vitiated, and does not perform its work prop
erly, the system is actually poisoned by the
worn out matter c!egging the vital organs in
stead Of leaving the body: For dyspepsia,

blood, DR.. Walkers California Vinegar Bit

Wabasha Herald: To show how profit
able the barley crop has been this yea:
we cite case, as nearly as possible as it
was told us: of gentlemen on the prairie
who, notlover year ago, bought eighty
acres of land, paying therefor the sum of
$1,000, He put seventy acres of it into
barley this season, and it was estimated
by safe and careful figuring, that TO break
up that seventy acres, buy seed and put it
in, the entire outlay for harvesting 1t
threshing and marketing it, could rot
have been altogether more then $1,000
making total cost Of $4,000. His seven
ty acres OF barley has yielded him an
average of from forty-two to forty-elght
bushels of real good grain to the acre-we
will safely say forty-five; which at eighty
cents, gave him an amount oveI the On
tire first cost of eighty :crcs, and in one
year too. California gold mines never paid
much better then that
