Indigestion

rs not only distressing complaint, of
i itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:-
oliver complaint and Indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years / suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that took seemed to do
any permanent good until commenced
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing TO take the Sarsapa-
rilla [ could see an improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength i'm
proved each day, and after few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, found myself well
woman, able TO attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me
new lease of life"

No Mans Land.

Bordering on the southeast corner of Wad-
ena county, and south of the Crow Wing
river, is strip OF land which does not belong
to any of the three counties that touch it.
These counties are Wa6ena, Cass and Todd.
This strip contains about three sections of
land, and some of it is and has been for seve-
raj years occupied by few settlers. When
the boundary lines Of the three counties
named above were fixed by the legislature,
this little parcel of the state of Minnesota APP
pears to have been completely overlooked.
If any crime was committed there it is doubt
full if anything could be done with the criIni-
nal, as the justices of the peace in the three
counties bordering this strip would have no
jurisdiction. This land is properly called
mo Mans Land" Gentlemen of the pugilis-
tic persuasion would probably find a seclud-
ed spot in this strip for a ring battle, or if
any one Of the three counties wish to enlarge
its possessions it can probably secure an
enactment of the legislature attaching it
thereto.-Wadena Pioneer

A Mule Die. Of a Broken Heart.

Rev. E. Dunbar, of San Luis Obispo, re-
lated TO me the following story not long
since: "A gentleman of our acquaintance
named Randall Borden lives near Escondido,
in San Diego county, Cal A year or more
ago he employed German to dig a well for
him, and gave him in part payment for the
work mare mule named Jennie. 1t was the
first live animal the German had ever owned.
strong attachment sprang up between man
and beast. The German took contract to
dig another well in the neighborhood, and
had the mule employed in hoisting the bucket.
While the German was putting in blast, il
exploded, blowing him into atoms. The man
above ground obtained help, descended into
the well, gathered up the fragments of the
dead man and sent them above in the bucket
The rope was so arranged that the mule was
near the wells mouth when the bucket was
hoisted. She szaelled the bucket, began to
bray pitifully, and tears ran from her eyes.
They could not get her to work again-had
to obtain another animal to hoist the man out
of the well. The mule fingered for three or
four days and finally died, as Brother Bor
den, her former owner, thinks of broken
heart. "-ChriStian Advocate.

AFTER THE BALL.

Turning the pages Of Burke and of Blackstone,
Reading the lines with mind far away,
With head full of memories Of music and dances
Here am trying to study today.
In my fancy the tones of the violins linger,
ienguorous Strauss waltz floats on my ear,
It's soft undercurrents Of passion and longing
So wildly enhancing again can hear
And again you / see IN your radiant beauty,
And away with the walters we 90 in a whir
With my arm round your waist and my head on
your shoulder,
catch the soft CLEAN OF each shimmering curl
The touch Of your hand sets my senses all thrill
ing,
My pulses al quicken and culver and start,
My brain is on Ere with look all enthralhng,
And the blood courses quick from my fast
bounding heart.
But where is the law or where is the lawyer?
The clients might GO or the clients might stay;
For astray from my law books and cases and
pleadings,
With the sweetest of memories I've wandered
away.

Pestalozzi,s Principles.

/. Activity is law of childhood. Ac-
cusation the child to do. Educate the
hand.
2. Cultivate the faculties in their or
der.
8. Begin with the senses, and never
tell the child what he can discover for
himself.
4. Reduce every subject to its ele-
ments. One difficulty at time is enough
for a child.
5. Proceed step by step. Be thorough.
The measure of information is not what
the teacher can give, but what the child
can receive.
6. Let every lesson have a point, eth
er immediate or remote.
Z. Develop the idea, then give the
term. Cultivate language.
s. Proceed from the known to the I'M
known. From the particular to the gen.
eral From the concrete to the abstract.
From the simple to the difficult.
8. First synsthesis, then analysis. Not
the order of subjects, but the order OF
nature.
Ofthe cheap 'process" editions of Web
ster's Dictionary which are now ON the
market, since the copyright of the early
edition of that work has expired, G.. and
G.. Merriam, the enterprising publishers,
say: "There have lately been placed upon
the market several books called 'Webster's
Unabridged Dictionary The Original
Webster's Unaoridged,' The Mammoth
Webster Dictionary and the like. They
are sold at a very low price, or given as a
premium, and in many cases they are
represented as being substantially the
same with Webster's Unabridged which
we now publish, and which is generally
accepted as the highest authority in the
English language. These books are
cheap and inferior reproductions of early
editions of Webster which have long
been superseded by modern improve
ments. There remains undoubtedly some
permanent value in these now ancient
books. But it should be clearly under
stood that both in mechanical and a
literary sense these cheap reprints are
| essentially inferior to the Webster of to-
day, that they are from thirty to sixty
years behind the times, and that they
cannot be depended on as standard
authority. A word as to the claim of
unparalleled eheapness. We learn that
IL is often asserted that these reprints are
the substantial equivalent of an eight to
twelve dollar book In fact, the best of
them is only a literal copy of book
which in its day we regularly sold at
wholesale price of from $500 to $500 and
which WIS retailed at from $500 to $3.50.
This, too, although that book was much
superior in paper, print, and binding to
the present imitation, and was then the
best dictionary of the time instead OF an
antiquated one. - Wisconsin Journal Of

An exchange gives the following
good advice to parents: Before you
listen To the complaints of your chill
dren about the fiendishness of the
teachers, and getting all worked up
AMI excited over it, it is better to re-
fleet little. Remember your one or
half dozen cherubs drive you crazy
about half the time and bear with the
teacher who is making for you intelli-
gent men and women of as unpromis-
ing material as you were twenty or
thirty years ago. Remember that be-
sides your own boy, who, of course,
everybody knows is an angel, she has
to contend with that awful boy of your
neighbor's, and you know full well
what terror he is.
