9 AGAINST IS.

Several PHI sicians have pronounced my disease
blood poison caused by paint or lead in the paint
but they could not cure me. Last summer 1 used
eighteen bottles Of largely advertised blood med
icue, which did me more good than so much
mater.
Ihave used only two bottles Of B. G. B. and am
proud to say that have received greater benefit
from them than from the eighteen. and am now
rapidly recovering. There is no question about
the superiority Of g. B. Is. over all blood remedies

"May not the dynamiters of Chica-

Texas Adv,
On this the Central Baptist makes
the following comment:
"Such is the reply to the claim of
tho brewers that they must be REIN
bursed if prohibition destroys their
business. In the first place, these
brewers and their political friends
affirm by all that is sacred in their
sight, that prohibition does not pro
hibit. Surely then they will not ask
for damages. But their position is
certainly untenable. A community
can have a livery stable, or soap fac,
tory, or a slaughter house removed
as nuisance. A community has a
right to protect itself. Invested cap
ital is not the highest right"
To this the Christian Index adds
the following pertinent words:
people who went into the liquor
business or beer business knew be
forehand that they were mourning
the risk of what has recently hap
pened to them, and as they took this
risk with their eyes open, they have
no right to complain of the result.

No fun was in the repulse by belle

quaintance with her. This was q
charity affair, and had q distinguished
characteristic. Hitherto on occasions
of festive philanthropy the lines be-
tween the selfconstituted aristocrats
and other respectable folks had been
relaxed for the sake OF the cause, and
the proudest Astor matron or maid
condescended to mingle with ordinary
mortals; but this time it had been
ordered that the incest circumspec-
ton be used to make an exclusive as
semblage, and each purchaser of u
ticket had been critically considered
by IL committee of society danes.
Somehow or other, however, ~ retail

Of horror, for she had bought shoes of

while he lost IL little of his self. posses

"Ah!" said the girl, With the slight

really seems very urgent, but if you

Washtngton's N1otlcsty.

There is a story told of Washing.
toms first appearance in the house OF
burgesses. He was something more
than n new member; he was the late
commander-in-chief of the Virginia ar.
my, the foremost man in u military
way, in the province; he had just re-
turned from the successful expedition
against Fort Duquesne. So the house
resolved to welcome him in u manner
becoming SO gallanta Vireinian, and il
passed u vote OF thanks for the dis.
tinguished military services lie had
rendered the country. The speaker,
Mr.. Robinson, rose when Washington
came in to take his seat, and made Il
little speech OF praise and welcome,
presenting the thanks OF the house.
Everyone applauded and waited for
the tall colonel to respond. There he
stood blushing, stammering, confused.
He could give his orders to his men
easily enough, and he could even say
what was necessary to Mrs. Martha
Custis; but to address the house OF
burgesses in answer to q vote OF
thanks-that WAS another matter!
Not a plain word could he get out. 1t
was a capital answer, and the speaker
interpreted it to the house.
"Sit down, Mr.. Washington" said
he. "Your modesty equals your valor,
and surpasses the power OF Language" "

Tho Mortality from Consump-
ton.

Within the past year the civilized
world has been shocked and saddencd
by the knowledge of the great devns-
tation wrought by the cholera in
Spain; and every precaution in the
way of sanitary measures and quaran-
tine regulations that modern science
could suggest was taken to prevent
its spreading in other countries. The
public scanned the columns of the
daily press, eager for information with
regard to the advance OF this fearful
disease, and read with bated breath
as they learned that it numbered its
victims by the tens OF thousands.
If it was matter OF such deep and
universal concern that in Spain 1O1,-
600 souls gave up their lives to this
fell destroyer, should it not also be q
matter of some interest to our own
people that within the borders of
these United States over 81, 500 per.
sons die each year of pulmonary con-
sumption?-that twelve out OF every
hundred deaths are caused by u dis
ease, which, though slow in it's progress,
is as sure in it's results as the cholera
itself?
Should it ever transpire that some
means OF prevention should be found,
by means of which people would be
rendered proof against the disease, or
at least could be cured when once it
had set its seal upon them, would it
not be one OF the greatest boons
vouchsafed to man since the introduc-
ton OF vaccination?
