Medical experts, by the use of the
Microscope, have recently discovered
and classified specific living GERMS
in the blood of all persons suffering
from Malaria, and say that to cure
the patient these germs must be
killed. Thirty years ago DR.. Shallen-
berger advanced this theory as the
correct one, and prepared his "Anti-
dotc for Malaria" to destroy these
poisonous germs, If you have
Malaria in your system, a few doses
of this medicine will destroy the
poison Immediately, and not iniure
an infant. Sold by Druggists.

The Ladies Favorite.

The newest fashion in ladies' hats
will doubtless cause flutter of
pleasurable excitement among the
fair sex. Ladies are always suscepti-
BILE to the changes Of a fashion plate /;
and the more startling the departure,
the more earnest the gossip over the
new mode. DIR. Plerce's Favorite
Prescription is a positive cure for the
ills which afflict females and make
their lives miserable. This sover-
eign panacea can be relied on in
cases of displaccments and all func-
tional arrangements. 1t builds up
the poor, haggard and dragged-out
victim, and gives her renewed hope
and fresh lease oflife. It's the only
medicine for woman's peculiar weak
nesses and ailments, sold by drug
gists, under a positive guarantee from
the manufacturers, that it will give
satisfaction in every case, or money
refunded. Read printed guarantee
on bottle wrapper.

Amphibian Of the Coal Period,


Professor Bickmore, in a recent lee
ture on "The Period Of Reptiles and
Mammals" in the Museum of Natur-
al History, this city, presented on a
serene Illustrations of the foot
prints of one of the amphibians of the
coal period. The illustration was a
drawing from the great slab of blue
stone which belongs to the museum,
and was takeu from the stone quarry
at Turner's Falls, Mass. The animal
itself, Mr.. Bickmore explained, was
one Of those which rOamed in great
numbers along the Connecticut Val
ley during the carboDiferOus period.
This one had left its footprints in the
mud, and the impression having
been subsequently filled with sand,
the cast was preserved when the clay
became hardened into stone.
From fossils of the animal, which
have been obtained in other portions
of the valley, it appears to have had
IN elongated body, about fourteen
feet long, on four legs. 1t moved
mainly on the hind feet, the fore legs
being shorter, and lived partly i'm the
water, and partly ON thehanks Of the
stream.

Probably no one thing has caused
such general revival of trade at
Ritchey d Stroud's Drug Store as
their giving away to their customers

this very valuable article from the
fact that it always cures and never

A lawyer living in a town near
Waterbury, Conn, states a fact that
well illustrates the thrift and frugality
that characterize many OF the old
families which havenot been touched
by modern extravaganza and love of
display. In that town three estates
have been settled within a few
months aggregating property to the
amount of$70O,0OO, and yet he says
ifall the household furniture of those
three families had been sold at best
possible price, the amount received
for it would not have amounted at
outside to $500. 1t is too often the
habit now to have thousand dollar
furnishings for hundred dollar
estates.

One week from to-day, Wednes-
day, will be commencement Day.
1t the State University.
This closes q very successful year
Of work. The body of students in at
tendance is one of the best that has
ever been recorded at the University.
Almost without exception, they have
been studious, orderly and self re-
spectful. We doubt that any other
similar institution in the land con-
tains body Of young men equal in
the qualities named to those in at
tendance here.
The young men of West Virginia
come, as a rule, from the farms of
the State where they have been edu-
Gated in habits of application to the
duty before them, to economy in
their expenditures, to close improve
ment Of their time, to the velue of an
education, and to good moral princi-
Piles as a necessary basis to sue
cessful life. They come to the Uni
versity big with purpose to profit
by their opportunity, and their time
and energy are conscientiously devo-
ted to this end. 1t is rare that a
breach of discipline occurs. 1t is
rare that young man with average
ability, does not succeed. Here and
there one drops by the way, unable
to keep up in the race, but this is
more frequently the result of a lack
OF ability rather than a want of ef-
fort. And although there are many
rough blocks enter the University,
they are shaped up" at least and
20 out to do credit to themselves and
their alma mater. We believe the
alumni as body, will compare IA
vorably in brain power and scholar
ship with any Of the Universities of
the country. There are twelve young
men in the academic department,
who will receive diplomas this year,
and they are without exception a
steady going, earnest and capable
class of students who will be heard
from in the State in future years.
Young men with their habits, char
acter and attainments do not long
remain in obscurity. They will be
leaders in the respective communi-
ties to which they CO.
1t is anticipated that this com.
mencment occasion will bring to
gether large number Of the alumni
and other friends of the University
throughout the State. Special prep
aratiens are being made to receive
visitors Hospitality and in such {
manner as to induce them to come
again. The outlook is for very en-
tertaining season, and we are sure
that our own people of town and
county will show no abatement O
interest in this annual event.

ASSETS, so, 900, 900.

The Washington issues all desirable
forms of Life and Endowment Insur-
ance, including its popular Semi En-
dowment, which is better than a "Semi-
Tontine," by as much as definite is
always better than an indefinite con-
tract. The Washington's Semi-Endow-
ments guarantee better results than
Semi-Tontines.
The Combination Policy of The
Washington guarantees to the holder of
a 81 900 policy 81 500 at maturity. A
policy for SIS, 900 is q contract for 81, 500.
A policy for $4,000 is a contract for
SIS 200.
Say the amount of the policy is $780,
000 the insured is guaranteed at matur-
ity $4,000 CASH and paid up Life
Policy for SIS 600; total, $45, 900, togeth-
err with all accumulated and unused
dividends.
The Combination Policy of The Wash
| ington is better than any form OF Tontine
or Deferred Dividends Dividends an
nually. Strong guarantees are embodied
in the policy contract.
The Combination Policy secures under
single contract
1. Protection for term of years.
II. The Savings of an Endowment.
III. A Permanent Estate.
A strong, simple an inexpensive pro-
vision, guaranteeing INSURANCE, a
CAPITAL SUM and AN ESTATE.
The Policies Of The Washington by
their terms are incontestable, residence
and travel unrestricted.
There are no fine print restrictions in
The Washington's policy form. Every
policy provides for a definite amount of
paid up insurance after three years. In
its provision for the voluntary applica-
ton for all dividends to prevent forfeit
ure in case of lapse, '"The Washing
toms" contract has always been supe-
rior to that of any other company.

ately on receipt OF proper proofs. For

Democracy Booming.

Democrat, to congress last week, in
the nineteenth Illinois district, to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of

ry indication that the Democratic
party is in a healthy and well organ
lied condition in that region. 1t
justifies belief that the Republicans
are not gaining strength under the
Harrison dispensation; and this fact
has good deal Of significance in
view of coming events. The Chica-
