Your Friend Committed Suicide.

You never suspected it, none Of his friends
dreamed of it, he did not know it himself,
but it is exactly what he did, nevertheless.
Do you remember his salloW complexion
Do you recollect how he used to complain of
headache and constipation! "Tm getting
quite bilious" he said to you one day, "but
1 guess it'll pass off. l haven't done any
thing for it, because I don't believe in dos
ing.'n Soon after that you heard of his
death. 1t was very sudden, and every one
was greatly surprised. If he had taken DR..
Pierces Pleasant Purgative Pellets he would
be alive and well to-day. Don't follow his
example. The "Pellets" are easy to take,
mild in their action, and always sure.

AS TO the profit of such an in
stItution in our midst no one can
have any question, and that profit
is no more apparent than the
need of a place of resort whore

odicals may be ready at hand
With many families it is an i'm
possibility TO make provision of
literature to meet the wants OF
their members and TO keep
abreast of the publications of the
times. Besides, the want of a
public reading room and consul
tation place, free from the jargon
of the streets and the degrading
influences of vicious resorts,
should not exist in a place such
as Logan.
The cost of such an institution
would be nothing In comparison
with the impression for good
made by the exi.tence and the
facilities il would afford for the
of the mind. and the
saving of many hours which are
otherwise lost in idleness, if not |
