THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR.
How the Unsuspecting arc Often
Gullcd.
CAPITAL VERSUS MERIT.

1t is possible that money dipped into a
bounteous supply of printers ink, is to be
used to teach false ideas.
why Is it that such persistent anathemaS
should all at once be hurled against the use
of "Potash and Potash Mixtures?"
Those who insist that Potash is q poison
do SO because that is the way they have of
hghting Is. B. b., as the latter contains
potash properly combined.
Opium, morphine, Strychnine, aconite,
whlskey, etc, are all deadly poisons, and
are daily destroying the lives of people,
ana why do not these men cry out against
them? 1t is because there is no money in
sight to do so. Potash is not regarded as q
poison, and very seldom harms any one;
put those who abuseit are usinga vegeta-
bic poison ten times rs violent IOdide of
Potash, in proper combination, is regarded
by the medical profession as the quickest,
grandcSt and most powerful blood remedy
ever known to man. Those who believe in
revealed combinations and Indian foolish
ness are surely in a condition to become
rather 'cranky" in their ideas at any time.
We assert Understandings that Potash, as
used in the manufacture of b. b. b., is not
poison, and the public need cot place any
confidence in assertions to the contrary.
why is it that in one thousand letters
which we receive we never hear word
against its use? The truth is; b. b. b. is
working such wonders in the cure of all
blood poiSons, ScrCfula, rheumatism, ca
tarrh etc, that others are trembling in
their boots, and cry aloud, "pois0n,"
"naud,' because they fear its triumphant
march; Let any man or woman ask any
respectable doctor or druggist if we arc
not right Do not be deceived, but 90
right along and call for B. B. b., and be
cured. 1t is making five times more cures
i'll Atlanta thanSall other blood remedies
combined. We don't say that others are
poisons or frauds; we are not that easily
alarmed, but Wc say ours is the best, and
we nave the proof Send for our 32-page
book, free, and be convinced.

fion of SO mauy ShaTows In this State

believe 1t has some bearing, but don't

THE WORLD OF LABOR.


Union Workmon In Marinette, Wis =, Be-
seigo Boarding-Housoo of Non Union
Men.
AT an early hour On Thursday q
large force of the Laborcrs' Union of
Marinette, Wis, estimated to be nearly
thousand strong, marched in a solid
body across the river to Mcnomince
and surrounded one Of the Kirby Car
pcnter Company's boarding houses
before the men had been to breakfast,
not allowing n man to go to work.
This act is the outcome Of tho meeting
held there by the members of the union
at which it was stated that the Kirby
Carpenter Company was employing
non-union men in their mills and had
refused to sign the contract which the
other mill companies had signed,
allowing their men eleven hours as q
days work, with one hour for dinner,
the balance of the season. The Union
claims that the Kirby Carpenter Com
pany was quietly hiring and importing
men lin their barSes from Chicago to
work at the old standard time as be-
fore the last lockout, waving all claims
and rights to themselves and to the
ten-hour law of Michigan as now in
force; that the mill has its complement
| of men and could be run in full force
from this on. Up to late hour on
Thursday night no settlement had been
made or arrangement on which the
mills will again start mp. The com
| pany is determined that the mills shall
be run on the olh system, while the
union is equally determined that nc
man shall go to work under such an
arrangement.

ENGLAND AGAIN ALARMED.

The Russians Reported to be Again Be-
coming Aggressive On the Afghan Front
fer-Advancing on Zufixar Pass-A Sem
satfon Produced in London.
LONDON, July 15.-The Times this
special correspondent on the Russo-Af-
CHAN frontier, sent via Teheran, in which
he states that the Russians are becoming
very aggressive and appear intent on
forcing war with the Afghans. The cor.
respondent says that the Russian forces
under Colonel Alikhanoff are advancing
en- masse on Zulfkar Pass from various
points near the frontier held by the Rus
slams, principally from Sarikhs, and
make but little efforts at concealing their
intentions. The Afghans are much
alarmed by this forwsxd movement, and
exhibit great anxiety lest the Russians
may take possession of the Pass and
march on Herat. They were
determined, however, to oppose any
further advances by the Russians
with all the force at their command.
Should the Russians persist in their
course, bloody conflict can not much
longer be avoided. The correspondent
adds that he is firmly of the belief that
Alikhanoff is secretly conniving with the
object OF bringing on fight, and that he
is hoodwinking and deceiving the Gear
by false reports as to the doings of troops
under his command.
The dispatch caused profound sensa.
tion throughout London, and has had a
marked effect on the various exchanges.
On the Stock Exchange consols declined
three-eighths per cent. since Its publica-
ton, while Russian and Egyptian bonds
went down fully one per cent.

REINDEER HUNTING.
How the Esqumaux Hunt the Reindeer
Aided BY Boys and Dogs.

How the Esqumaux Hunt the Reindeer
Aided BY Boys and Dogs.
Esquimaux dogs are used in various
ways in hunting. When the weather
is so foggy that hunter can not see
very far. and there is consequently but
little prospect of his killing anything
unless he almost stumbles upon it, one
of them will take his bow and arrows,
or his gun, if he be fortunate enough
to own one. and giving the best-trained
hunting-dog in charge of one of his
sons, they start out reindeer-hunting.
The boy puts a harness on the dog. ties
the trace around his own waist, or
holds it in his hands, and follows his
father out into the fog.
OF course, the older Esquimaux has
some idea where the reindeer W IL be
grazing or resting. and he soon finds
out which way the WIND is blowing
over the place where he suspects the
reindeer to be. Then. with his boy
and the dog, he goes around in such a
way that the game will not be dis
turbed, to some place where the wind
blowing over the reindeer Will come
toward the hunters. As soon as the
place is reached, the dog smells the
reindeer. and commences shifting the
air as if anxious to go toward them.
The boy allows the dog to advance
slowly, still holding on to the harness
so that it shall not run away. AS soon
as the dog scents the deer, it goes
directly toward them, and when It is
quite near, it grows excited and COM
mences to jump and to jerk the harness
trace by which the boy is holding it;
being a well-traned hunting dog, how
ever, it never barks so as to frighten the
deer by the sound.
The hunter now knows from these
excited actions of the dog that the
| reindeer must be close at hand, al
| though he can not see them for the fog.
| So he tells his son to hold the dog and
remain in that spot while he takes his
bow or gun and crawls cautiously for
ward in the proper direction. Before
he has gone far, probably not more
than twenty or twenty y-tive yards away,
| the huge forms of .wo or three rein
deer loom up through the fog. If be
| is good hunter he will at least bring
one down, and perhaps two or three Of
them, and SO have something for sup
| per. When there is snow on the
ground, the boy will generally takt
two or three dogs along. and after
reindeer is killed, will use them to II n
it into the snow house. AS the n ar.
Esquimaux loves exc tement, IA ~
good sport, and in this way Esm&i
learns to hunt quite well II 4, A. =
