WHY SHE DIDN'T MARRY HIM.
Eyes, live pleasantly enough with my
husband, she said, ..but | believe T
should have married Augustus, if all the
girls hadn't made fun of him, and said
he'd be bald as pumpkin in year or
two. Young men, take warning, and
use Parker's Hair Balsam. Cleanses the
scalp, restores color, removes dandruff.
THE HOT WEATHER mid-sum-
mer has weakening effect, both upon
body and mind. You feel absolutely
incapable Of doing any arduous work,
and even light duties are performed
languidly and unwillingly. This low
state of the system causes even greater
infirmity, and gives opportunity for
serious disease to gain foot-aold. In
this condition the system is quick to re-
spond to the reviving, quickening, and
strengthening effects of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, which purifies the blood, regu-
lates the digestive organs. and infuses
fresh life and vigor into every portion
of the body. People who have taken it
write us, saying: ut puts new life
right into me-" 1T makes me young
again" Reader, if you suffer from
summer weakness, try Hoods Sarsa.

HAY FEVER SUFFERERS.- The
number of people annually afflicted
with this most annoying malady seems
to be greatly on the increase. =
The editor of this journal is an annual
victim, and, with view to discover a
specific cure, has tried numerous RENE
dies. OF these Ely's Cream Balm is by
all odds the quickest and most satisfac-
tory, two applications greatly allaying
the usual symptoms in the nose and
eyes. Wewould recommend its use by
all subject to hay fever, and we gladly
bear unsolicited testimony to its eff

ENEMIES READY TO STRIKE.
Every family is constantly in danger
from impure water, unripe fruit, I'M
wholesome food, contagious diseases,
cramps, cholera morbus, coughs and
cold, indigestion and simple fevers. In
such cases a bottle of Parker's Tonic

About four hundred immigrants from
Iceland are on their way to Manitoba,
where a colony of these hardy sons OF
the wintry isle has been established.
Iceland is becoming distasteful to these
people. Between severe cold and red
hot eruptions the island is getting to be
a very uncomfortable place. A few
years ago an Icelandic deputation went
to look at Alaska as an objective point
for their countrymen; but they did not
like it. A few Icelanders are found in
Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
There ought to be more of them.
They are valuable addition to our
population. Manitoba seems to have
made a very successful effort to get
some of them; but there are 10000 more
in Iceland.

Laws Against Vice.

Hon. Galusha A. Grow, the veteran
Pennsylvania Republican and ex-
Speaker of the House of Representa-
tives, stating his views as to Prohibition
the other day, said that Prohibition is
impracticable in the party sense, and
that Republicans should candidly de-
clare that their party is not party of
prohibition. Said Mr.. Grow:
am in favor Of making vice pay the expenses
of vice. High license would do that. Virtue
does not need almshouses or police, and she
should not be forced TO pay for either Vice
makes criminals and paupers, and should pay
for both. Prohibition does not want high license.
Prohibitionists say that IL you take money from
vice you become a party OF yiciousness. In
other words, they want men to be good and pay
the expenses OF people who are bad, as well as
their own. 1t does not make the government a
party 10 vice when it makes vice pay for what
damage it does to the community. High license
would restrict the sale of liquor, besides raising
revenue. Under a high license the keepers OF
saloons will form vigilance force to prevent in
fractions Of the law.

The British government is reported
to have settled the awkward question
about the proper boundary between
Upper Burmah, the late British aeguisi-
ton, and China. The Burmese rebels,
who have been giving the English
troops deal of trouble ever since Prem
dergast entered Mandalay, have all
along believed that China would come
to their assistance; but the British gov
eminent has made concessions to China,
which secure that power as friendly
neighbor. The chief of these conces-
sions is leaving China in possession of
the town of Bhamo, with the commercial
routes converging to it from the rich
province of Yunnan. The English, with
the completion of the proposed railroad
through Burmah into China, will get
enormous trade advantages, which will
make the Burmah acquisition one of
the most valuable of their territorial
extensions.

The increased production of wheat
by the cheap ryot labor in British India
is not paying shippers, as wheat is
down TO 81 shillings in London, and
does not yield the Indian grower more
than a penny bushel profit. They are
OVERRIDING the business in India, and it
will evidently soon cease to be profit
able. When wheat falls below 81 shil-
llngs in London it will not pay to ship
IL from India.

of silver than the standard dollar, but
that didn't help it any, while the stand

was a swindle upon the people from the
beginning, first, by the government
furnishing to spectators in Asiatic i'm
ports silver at less than the market
price, and latteHy, since the heavy de-
cline in silver metal, it furnished the
opportunity for spectators to buy it as
cheap bullion, and either pass it off in
small quantities as dollars, when, on ac-
count of it not being legal tender. it
was not dollar, or to hoard it, await
