The Brown.Sequard discovery of the
Elixir of Life and the successful practical
results is creating sensation in medi.
cal circles, and we'll it may, when old
men who are physical wrecks, unable to
walk, are in few hours rejuvinated SO
as to be able to kick as high as their
heads, and to feel in every respect as
as vigorous as they did at twenty-five
years of age. There are many wonders,
even in this great age of wonders, which
never have been dreamed of in this
worlds philosophy. Ponce de Leon
could not find this great elixir. when he
looked for it but it was here only he did
not look for it in the right place. If the
beneficial effects of the new discovery
are permanent it will be the death blow
to the unde rtaking business.

State Fair Glories.

In the history and romance of the
Mexican border there is nothing more
attractive as brilliant figure than the
vaquero, his horse, and the wild stee rs
Of the plains. In bis pristine glory he
will be at the state fair this year. Add
to this attraction a thousand herd of
blooded horses and cattle; sheep and
swine; the multiform products of the
farm and mandatory, and you have a
glorious display. There will be each
day a series of Trotting and Running
races, with $4,000 in purses offered for
the winners. The State National Guard,
under arms and in camp, will give a
marvellous drill, and also compete for
handsome prizes offered for drill inspec-
ton. These prizes will be arranged to
meet the capacities of every company in
the state.

MACHINERY HALL.


There will be Grand Army reception
on National Guard day, and the veter-
ans ofthe war will be feted as the hon
ored guests of the State Fair Association
They will sit in the guests chair, and
the broad grounds of Hamline, with
their myriad attractions will be the old
soldiers retreat of joy for day. A
novel feature, and one calculated to
arouse deep interest, will he the contest
OF horse-shoers of the State for valuable
prizes. There is not horse-shoer at
his forge who will not feel the thrill OF
competition in his blood when he learns
that at the State Fair he can honestly
wage his skill in shoeing the noble
horse, and win handsome prize. On
Sept. 18th the Grand Producers and In
dustrials Parade of 1888 will be repeated
before the grand stand with all the
trlumphs of Ceres and the Mechanics
and the herds of the fields in line. L,
will be the longest and most varied pro-
duct parade ever carried out in the
Union. The Live Stock Barns, capa
clous and clean, filled with the farmers
herds of the Central and Western States;
Machinery Hall quivering with the
"whirr" of mechanical inventions;
Agricultural Hall, yellow with the grains
of thousand farms; Floral Hall, sweet
with roses, lilies and the gems of the
hot house; the Art Gallery, hung with
the choisest products from the brushes
of old masters; the Main Hall, with its
attractions of trade and focal point for
the Ladies; the Race Track. and its
equine kings; around all the rolling
grassy slopes of the beautiful grounds,
and ABOVE the tempered sky of autumn;
the flash and CLEAN of bayonet and
sword; the bright picturesqueness of the
Vaquero, and stirring strains of music
all these will form a panorama for study
and pleasure such as the State Fair has
never seen before. These are not by
any means the full list of attractions OF
the Fair, but they show at this early
date how far the management has gone
in preparing for magnificent popular
reception in September. The Western
Association of Railroads has made pas
senger rate to the Fair Of One Fare for
the Round Trip. Tickets good from
Sep. 6 to 16, inclusive.

Rev. T. De Witt Talmage preached a
great sermon in Helena, Mont, last Sun
day in which he showed that no matter
how far man has gone in his libations;
no matter how deep he has quaffed the
burning stuff; no matter how strong his
desire to continue TO drink; there is a
cure in the blood and gospel of Christ.
If Talmage is right, and we do rot ques-
ton the point, there is many a

Something like 100000 acres o. land
have recently been reclaimed and rem

acres more can be reclaimed in the

less than 100000 acres In addition
can be redeemed by extraordinary

a ROMAN ANTIQUE,

One of Julius Csesar's BODY Servants Dis
covered in New York.
1t was a warm day in summer, and |
seated myself for a moment on one of
the benches in Washington Square.
A few minutes later an old, white-
haired negro came hobbling along with
the aid of stick, and seated himself
at the other end of the bench, lifting
his battered hat to me deferentially as
he did so.
Twas both surprised and flattered at
such manifestation of politeness in
New York, and remarked to the old
man in friendly tone:
IA fine day, Uncle"
''Yas. sub, it IS fine day, boss, sho'
