Golden Medical Discovery" cures
those diseases which come from blood
impurities-scrofula and skin diseases,
sores and swellings.
But does it? It's put up by the thous-
ands of gallons, and sold to hundreds of
thousands. Can it cure as we'll as though
it had beer compounded just for you?
Its makers say that thousands of peo.
pie who have had letter and Salt-Rheum,
Eczema and Erysipelas, Carbuncles and
Sore Eyes, Thick Neck and Enlarged
Glands, are well to-day because they
used it.
Suppose that this is so. Suppose that
quick-witted man was far-seeing
enough to know that to cleanse the blood
was 10 cleanse the life. Suppose that by
many experiments, and after many fail
ures, he discovered this golden key to
health and that his faith in it for you is
so strong that you can go to your drug
gist, buy bottle, and if it doesn't help
you, you can get your money re-
turned-cheerfully. Will you try it?
The remedy to have faith in, is the
remedy the makers themselves have
faith in.

CITY BoARDERs THE COUNTRY.

Tho. following exhibit and sensible adj
vice concerning summer boarders on the
farm and how best to attract them is
taken from the NelC England Homestead:
The boarding of summer visitors is be-
coming an important business among
the farmers of northern New England
and western Massachusetts, and Connec-
ticut. In Vermont and New Hampshire,
each summer visitor is reckoned as pay
ing an average of 500 for board and
room, while many pay much more.
Hence 1000 visitors are worth SlOO,OOO to
a country. 1t is estimated that upward
of five million dollars are annually left
in the hands of the New Hampshire
farmers and summer clearinghouse
keepers bv these visitors. The granite
state is encouraging the indurtry, and
the board of agriculture has published
a finely illustrated pamphlet descriptive
of the state and giving the names and
addresses of farmers who take boarders,
A similar document is being prepared by
the Central Vermont railroad. Aside
from pure air, pleasant scenery and fresh
pure food, nothing is more attractive TO
the summer visitor than good roads.
Enterprizing towns that are striving to
make all the money possible out OF the
summer bOarder business, should bear
this fact IN mind. We know very many
city people who now go to the shore re-
sorts largely because good roads are to
be found in such localities, but who
would go to the mountains or highlands If
the roads were better for carriage or BIZ
cycle riding. Since the entertainment
of summer visitors is one of the pleas
ATTEST and most profitable sources of in.
come for our farmers, they can well
afford to cater to it.

IT IS A WISE MAN THAT CAN PROVE
HE is HIMSELF.

A citizen of Detroit who has resided
here for nearly 20 years, and who has for
the past dozen years run small caIpen-
ter shop on his own hook, got a check
ON one of the banks the other day and
stepped in to have it cashed, says the
Free Press.
"Have to be identified sir" replied the
cashier, as he handed back the paper.
'But l am John Blank, the carpenter. y"
Possibly you are, but you'll have to
bring some one who knows you"
"I'll bring 20 inside of five minutes ="
exclaimed the man as he walked out
Standing on the steps of the bank he
scanned the faces of the passers-by, and,
to his own great surprise, it was 10 min
utes before he saw the phiz of a friend.
The two entered the bank, and the latter
said to the cashier:
81 know this man to be John Blank. +"
But who are you?"
"I'm Stephen Dash"
Never heard of you. He must bring
one whom know is responsible
''See herel This is all nonsense?" ex-
claimed the owner of the check, who was
in a hurry.
Perhaps So" was the cool reply.
Mr.. Dash, do you positively know this
man to be John Blank?"
"Of course do"
"Have you ever had legal paper with
his signature?''
moo"
Ever pay him an account or collect
one by that nameP"
81 guess not"
Gould you safely make affidavit that
that is his real name?'
'I-I-don't believe could. I've just
heard him called John Blank"
Mr.. Blank brought in three other men,
each one of whom started in with the
greatest confidence, but came out of the
little end of the horn when asked the
usual questions. At length he remem-
bered man to whom he sold piece of
prOpe ty four years ago, and he walked
half mile to bring him to the bank.
"You identify him as John Blank, do
you?" queried the teller.
"Well, he signed that name to the
deed"
"Would you make oath that he is the
same person?"
"Um! Um! think he is"
"But will you sign a bond to make this
5000 good if he isn't?"
"Oh, no! Now that | look at him
more closely begin to see difference y
WHAT" shouted Blank. Haven't
lived within stones throw of you fol
10 yearsP"
Yes" was the hesitating reply.
Didn't build your barn for yOuF'
Il guess you did"
Haven't you seen me almost every
day for years and years?"
well, I've seen you or somebody who
looks very much like you. 1 think yOr
are John Blank, but, of course, l cam
swear to it."
The money was paid, and the teller af
terward said:
''He was the right party, of course, bu
had carried out our rule to the letter
doubt if he could have found maj
among al his neighbors to swear to hi
identity. | don't believe we have 10 mel
in Detroit who can prove their lega
identity without taking an hours tint

UNCLE JERRY MANAGED THE LOAD.

Uncle Jerry Rusk, the efficient Secre-
tary of Agriculture. is the central figure
of an Interesting story now going the
rounds here. The other day a young
rustic drove into the grounds surround
ing the agricultural department with a
large load of hay drawn by six horses.
The hay was intended for the barns, but
the young driver was utterly unable to
get the load up to the door, owing to
several bad turns. Uncle Jerry watched
him for few minutes from his office
window, and then going out he bade the
rustic to alight, which he did. Uncle
Jerry then sprang into the saddle, silk
hat, Prince Albert and all, and in few
seconds the wagon was in its place in
front of the door. The driver looked on
in amazement, and all he could say was,
"Well I'm jiggeredl' Uncle Jerry
laughed heartily, and returned to his
desk and his senatorial callers.-Pitts-
bury Commercial.

THEY WENT FISHING.

Last Saturday the champion fisherman
OF the Berkshire hills and two of his
friends decided to try the trout near
home. The work of preparation de
volved upon the champion because the
other two were at work in mill and
would not be at liberty till four o'clock,
consequently he had everything in readi-
ness at the appointed hour-tackle, bas-
kets, worms for bait, etc. The party
boarded an electric car and rode up the
valley about three miles, then bTanched
out 10 scOur a promising stream at the
sunset hour, when trout are supposed
TO walk around the surface of the water
looking for flies, worms, fishermen and
other sundries. They reached the grassy
banks, looked down stream and saw
that no one was ahead of them, spliced
their poles and got all ready TO proceed
TO business, except adjusting the hooks,
when it was discovered that the engi-
neer of the excursion had omitted to
place any hooks among the equipments.
II there had been whale In the water
the fellow responsible for this blunder
would have been thrown to him, but as
1t was they concluded to keep him and
whale him themselves. He hasn't heard
the last of it yet, and it is safe to say
there are three men in town who won't
be caught fishing again this summer
without hooks and plenty Of them.-'
