CONTAGIOUS BLOOD POISON

the worst Of all blood contagon, as the
horrible poison is transmitted from one

that the terrible scourge has ever been
cured and thoroughly eradicated from the
human body by any other remcdy than
Swift's Specific, and We further say that
Swlft's Specific has never been known to
fail to make permanent cuIe in any

of the vital organs had become soimpair-
ed as to render cure impossible.

Experts.
81 don't remember exactly what il
was, but know was telling poker
story when the tailor said
i" by the way, do you want any poker
pockets in this suit?
81 looked at him rather inquiringly
and said
"'poker pocketsI'
Yes, he said, pockets for poker
81 told him didn't know what he
meant. He laughed and said
" 4 mean special pockets for playing
poker
81 told him had never heard OF such
thing and asked him to explain. Then
he said
Il make clothes for number of solid
business men and club members who
like to play poker. They also like to
win-most poker players do. So make
special pockets in different parts of their
clothing, just big enough to hold a play
ing card. For one man / made pocket
in the right leg of his trowsers, about
midway between his hip and knee. The
opening of this pocket IS In the seam
and is not observable, and as the man
plays along and gets a card that is likely
to prove useful he quickly buries it IN
this pocket by dexterious move which
he has practiced till he has it pat, and
when he needs this particular card he
springs it and scoops the pot

NAMES OF THE MONTHS

In looking up the peculiar names Civ
en- each of the twelve months of tho
year it becomes necessary for us to &c
back to the old Romans, who have i'm
posed upon us set of names equally at
absurd as those of the Norseman, Scan.
dlnavians and SaxOns applied to the
week. January is named from Janus
the god of doors and gates. because the
month opens the year. Some say that
he was a two faced god aud could look
back on the last year and forward to the
coming.
February is from februo, to purify
March was originally the first month
and was named for Mars, the god Of
war.
April is from aperire, to open, because
the buds open in that month.
May is from Maia, a goddess.
June is from Juns, the patron of mar
riage, and is, therefore, the favorit'
month for weddings.
July was name for Julius C9 ar, anC
August for Augustus Ce Sar. original!
August had but thirty days and Febru'
airy twenty-nine in the common yea
and thirty in leap years. Augustus wa
more days than his own, therefore tool
one from February and added it to Au
gust.
September, October, November AM
| December are so called because the,
originally the seventh, eight. ninth AM
tenth months of the year. The name
are inappropriate and rank misnomer
as now applied.

AMERICAN FARMS.

Men are investing dollars freely in the
purchase of Western lands in an expec
tatlon of a rise in the price; not that
one.half or one-third of the purchasers
desire or expect to sell again, but that it
is comfortable to know that the farm
which is to support and educate fami-
y will be worth more dollars per acre
when the old man dies and leaves it to
his heirs than it was at the time of his
acquiring it. The expected rise in the
price of land is based upon an expected
continuance of the hourishing condition
of agriculture, or upon such an improved
condition as may result from an extern
sion of the American home market, and
consequent dimlnution of dependence
upon the foreign markets, which as the
free traders tell American farmers, fix
the price of grain. If they do,it is plain
that they will cease to do so when the
American farmer finds the home market
capable of taking all or nearly all of his
products. AS it is he only exports 3S
out of every 1000 bushels of the corn
which remains after he has supplied
himself with food for the winter and
seed for the next spring. 1t is not so
very long ago that he exported most and
sold least at home. Still the free traders
who complain that England fix 8 the
price of corn now that only about one
third is exported would 80 restrict the
home market by the reduction of Amer
lean manufacturing centers as to cause
two-thirds to he sent abroad. The logic
is very peculiar, indeed.
But men are not purchasing land in
England, that free traders paradise, with
an expectation of an advance In price.
The London World thus notes one effect
OF free trade upon agriculture
San example of the ruinous deprecia-
ton of agricultural land in Lincolnshire
was recently afforded when farm with
houses and buildings, in the neighbor-
hood of Afford, was offered for sale land
the highest bid was only e2100, although
the property cost e6700 eighteen years
ago, and considerable sum has since
been expended in improvements"
And another English journal adds
But it is not green fields alone that
have suffered; mills, manufactures and
works, when wished to be disposed of,
are found to have suffered a deprecia-
tion not less startling. When the bill of
charges for free trade is fully summed
up they general people OF England will
find they have paid dearly indeed for
for the Cobdenian gospel of competition
and greed"
The depression of agriculture is re-
sponsible in large degree for the late
great strike in London, it being stated
by the London Times that 80 per cent
of the dock aborers-including perhaps,
the permanent men-are agricultural
laborers in point of origin" Think Of
30 per cent. being added to the number
of any class of American workmen, iron
or brick makers, coal miners or weavers,
by the discharge of hands from the
farming regions, and be sure that in the
magnitude of the disaster which would
ensue the measure of The folly of free
trade teachings would be painfully dis
cerned Inter Ocean.

WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.

She can come to a conclusion without
the slightest trouble of reasoning on It.
and no man can do that.
Six of them can talk at once aud gel
along first rate, and nc two men can dc
that.
She can safely stick fifty pins in her
dress while he is getting one under his
thumb nail.
She is as cool as a cucumber in a hall
dozen tight dresses and skirts, while a
man will sweat and fume and growl in
one loose shirt.
She can talk as sweet as peaches and
cream to the woman she hates while two
men would be punching each others
heads before they exchanged ten words.
She can throw a stone with a curve
that would be fortune to a base ball
pitcher.
She can say "No" 10 such low voice
that il means "Yes."
She can sharpen a lead pencil il you
give her plenty of time and plenty OF
pencils.
She can dance all night in a pair OF
shoes two sizes too small for her and en-
joy every minute Of the time.
She can appreciate kiss from her hus.
band seventy years after the marriage
ceremony is performed.
She can go TO church and afterwards
tell you what every woman ia the con
gregation had on, aud In some rare in
stances can give you some faint idea n
what the text was.
She can walk half the night with a
colicy baby in her arms without on e
expressing the desire Of numbering the
infant.
She can do more in a minute than a
man can do in an hour, and do it better.
She can drive a man crazy in twenty

THE DIFFERENCE.

The Journal, organ of the Congrega-
tionalists of New Hampshire and Yer
months puzzled by the vote on the ques-
ton Of prohibition in Connecticut and
the two Dakotas, because in the nutmeg
State a prohibitory amendment was
beatenen three to one, and largely by
the vote Of temperance people under the
lead Of the most eminent divines in the
State, while in the two new common
wealths the enemies of the saloon all
rallied in favor of Prohibition and car
ried 1t. The reason we do not think is
hard to find, and as we have stated re-
peatedly it is not because the people of
Dakota are more moral, more temperate
or more opposed to the grog shop than
those of Connecticut, but because ma
jority of them believe prohibition can be
and will be enforced in their State, while
thousands Of the best citizens Of Connec-
ticut feel that it cannot be in theirs, Our
notion Is that there are very few COM
munities in this country in which any
scheme which was certain to suppress
rum-shops would not command a ma
jority vote, and if it could be shown
that prohibition would prohibit there il
not Northern State that would not
vote it,, but when it is demonstrated by
long experience that prohibition means
free rum good many of the most ear
nest enemies Of the traffic are for some
thing else, Now, experience has shown
that while prohit itory law can be and
generally is enforced in farming districts
1t is not in cities and large villages, and
hence Safe like Kansas or d ikpta,
whose people are almost entirely devote /
to agriculture, votes yes, while Connec-
ticut, Massachusetts, and New Hamp-
shire, whose population IS largely in
towns and villages, cay no. A law to be
of any service must be adapted to the
locality aud the people for which it is
intended, and it is IN ignoring this fact
that radical Prohihitionists make their
first mistake.-MancheSter, N, H., MIR.

ON ANOTHER ERRAND.

A Vermont Baptist minister who Is
not too grave and dignified to enjoy a
good joke, even when it is on himself,
narrates ludicrous incident of his early
life. Soon after being settled over new
congregation, he one day received note
asking him to be home that evening at
8 o'clock, The writer added that he
was intending to be married at that hour
and would call at the parsonage with
his bride.
1t was but few minutes before Ell hi
O'Clock when the door bell rang, and a
moment later the servant announced
that young couple awaited the minis
ter in the parlor.
Going down into the parlor, accom-
panied by his wife, the pastor found a
neatly dressed, intelligent appearing
young man and bright looking young
woman, who rose to receive him.
81 am Mr.. Homer" said the young
man, land this is Miss Cross"
Having another engagement for the
evening, the minister said Immediately
81 received your note this morning, and
we will proceed with the ceremony al
once. Please join your right hands,"
In great bewilderment, which the min
lister mistookfor natural embarrassment
the young couple timidly clasped hands
and the ceremony was about to begin
when the young man said
"I-we-what ceremony is itp'
why, the ceremony Of marriage, Of
COURSE"
"O-o-o-o-h r. shrieked the young
lady, withdrawing her hand and cover
ing her face with handkerchief.
II don't understand this at all, said
the young man sharply. 1--WE came
here simply as committee from the
Young Peoples Society Of the Methodist
Church to ask you and your wife to be
present at public entertainment we are
about to give and"
1t was now the minister's turn to say
"O-o-o-h," and he said it in genuine as
constituent at the very moment that the
maid ushered in the young couple who
had matrimonial intentions"
The mistake evidently started the first
young couple into new lines Of thought
for, a year later, their own pastor being
i'll, they called upon the Baptist pastor
aud did not protest that he was going
too far when he again asked them tC
join hands.-YouthS Companion.

REST.


Rest from the weary ills of life,
Rest from its burdens, tolls and strife -
Where can such rest be found
In midnight revels, mean and low,
In fashions new. that come and go,
In pleasures giddy round
From hustle, wrangle, din, away,
From places where the wicked stray,
There's rest sublime and sweet.
Where shall we seek this peaceful rest,
So grateful to the troubled breast :
It's found at Jesus feet.
o, when oppressed with fretting cares,
And grief upon the spirit bears,
There is rest calm and pure.
Be it morn, or noon, or night,
1t fills the soul with visions bright,
Pleasures that will endure,
Out Of the weary fret and moan,
When life is pain and breath groan,
With Jesus there is rest.
Out Of the anger, hate and woe,
Burning the heart with luIid glow,
There's rest on Jesus breast.
o blessed Saviour, thou hast power
To quell the storms of life that lower,
And give the spirit peace.
Thou dost a blessing surely give,
To all who strive with thee to live,
The joys that never cease.
