and head, and was very near blind for two years.
All kinds of operations were performed on my eyes,
and all to good result Finally the disease princ-
pay settled in my body limbs and feet and at times
in an aggravated way.
Last summer | was, from some cause, weak in my
spine and kidneys, and it at times very hard to
retain the urine. Seeing your advertisement in the
Commercial, bought bottle of VEGET1NE, and
commenced using according to directions In two or
three days obtained great Ielef. After using four
five bottles noticed it had wonderful effect on
the rough, scaly blOtches my body and legs. L
still used VEGETINE and the humorous sores one af-
ter another disappeared until they all gone and
attribute the of the tW diseases to VEGETINE
and nothing else.
If i am ever affected with anything Iof the kind
again shall try VEGETINE the only reliable rem
edy. Once more accept my thanks, and believe me-
to be, Very respectfully, AUSTIN PARROTT.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Kidney Complaint.

Probably there is complaint that af1icts the hui
man system which so little understood at the pres
emit time as some Of the varied forms of Kidney
There is no disease which causes such acute pain
or more alarming in its results than when the kid
news fail to secrete from the blood the uric acid and
other poisonous substances, which the blood accum-
ulates in its circulation through the system.
If from any cause the kidneys fail to perform the
functions deyoving upon them, the cumulations are
taken up by the absel bents and the whole system
snfering and very often immediate DEATH Hence the
imnortance of keeping the kidneys and blood in a
healthy condition, through which all the impurities
of the budy must pass.

POETRY.

[For the Press.l
The Richest Prince.
From the German.
BY B. E. E.
Within the Emperor's palace,
At the city of Worms they say
Four German princes sat praising
Their several Kingdoms one day.
''Glorious my land and its power!"
The proud prime of Saxony cried;
'For 10! in the heart of its mountains
Lie silver shafts deep and wde.'
"My country Ger flows with plenty
Said one from the beautiful Rhine;
"There are golden seeds in its valleys,
And the hillsides are teeming with wine."
"Ah! many great cities, rich cioisters,
Throughout my fair realm you viii find;
So in treasures, in WORTH" added Ludwig,
Bavaria falls not behind.''
Then Elberhard, last of the speakers
Old Wurtenburg's we'll beloved lord
Said softly, "My land has few cities,
No mountains with silver wealth stored,
"Yet holds it one jewel most precious,
Since cen in the forests dark Wild,
My head in the lap of each subject
Ilay-with the trust OF child!''
Then shouted Bavaria's lordship,
The Saxon, the pl ince from the Rhine,
80, Eberhard! Thou art the richest,
The priceless stone truly is thine!''

The Way They Vote in Wyoming.

Considering that the following comes from a
Laramie paper, it is not very bad. The papers
have been telling about the Laramie woman who
sat down and took good cry when her vote was
ehall nged. Now let them talk about the
woman at Medicine Bow, who, just as she was
deposting her vote last election day, was sur
prised to hear rough voice sing out:
81 challenge that woman's VOTE
son what grounds, sir 2"
"She hasn't been long enough in the terri
tory
Did the woman sit down and cry over it +? It ia
not to be record d. Her dainty little hand glided
back into the folds Of her back and the next
thing that audacious cuss knew he was gazing
into the muzzle Of a DeIinger, while the fair
voter said:
''How long have been in the territory, sir ~
"Look out madsm-dont. That cussed thing
might go off-take it away; beg your pardon;
I-dont touch that trigger-I-I-Fm mistaken in
the woman. Please point that the other way.
I'll lick he lynn sheep thief that says you haven't
lived right here in this town tor ten years, l
sw' ar will"
He scooted around the corner, and she
smilingly passed in her ticket.
