BOils and Carbuncles.

suffer with boils, carbuncles, etc.,

certainly prevent all such eruptive

antidote for blood poison arising
from whatever source, and It's use
when needed should not be unneces-
sarily delayed Thousands who
found extensively advertised blood
medicines to have no efficacy what
ever, are rejoicing in the fact that
Bulls Sarsaparilla is an exception,
and that good health invariably fol-
lows its use. Syphilitic and scrofu-
lous symptoms disappear, the skin
becomes clear and free from pim-
pies, the digestion is improved,
aches and pains cease, the weight of
the body becomes greater, the flesh
more solid, ulcerative and consump-
tive tendencies disappear, the power
of endurance is increased, weakness,
dizzy spells and unnatural fatigue
vanish, in a word the user of Bulls
Sarsaparilla becomes picture of

A PUSHER.

One of the brightest advertising
men in Chicago made his rise
through the fall OF another. II was
some years ago when as a mere boy
ne was tramping the streets of Chi
cago, broke and in search of any job
which offered. His last nickel had
gone for food, and one afternoon he
was walking through a down town
alley tired and disguised. Happen
ing to glance upward he saw boy
leaning out of a window. In a mo-
ment the boz lost his balance and
fell to the ground with the customa-
ry dull thud. The discouraged man
FASTENED to the boys side and dis
covered that death had been Instant
aneous. Looking up atIthe open
window from which he had fallen
the man counted the stories and
then sought the stairway near by.
Mounting the stairs he dashed into.
the EDITORS room, for it was the
office of the Prairie Farmer, and
biurted out: "Do you want boy?"
Looking up in surprise, the editor
answered mo, we have boy"
Then the man said 'I'll bet you
haven't-your boy just fell from the
window and is dead. want his
place." Investigation found that
the man was right, and he was en-
gagged for his pushing way. Since
then he has risen by degrees and
made money, and very few of his
friends know how he gained his
place.

How many men are there to-day
toiling night and day in order that
they may, when they die, leave their
daughters safe from want, and in
comfortable circumstances. The
best way to leave the daughters safe
is to give them knowledge of husi-
ness and affairs that will enable them
to take care of themselves. Give
them knowledge of a profession or
occupation, so that they will be able
to take care Of their money, if they
have any, or SO earn it if they have
not. This is better than to leave the
daughter a princely fortune, and
make her a mark in the community
for every eager, selfish prodigal to
reach out to attain. Better have her
able to fight the battle Of life for
herself and to so live that the world
will be better for her life.
