\ Bounty on Bugs.

There is a bounty on June bugs in
Sweden and Norway, where the trees
suffer greatly from the pests. In sim
gle Swedish province twelve thousand
kroner were paid for, it is estimated,
something like one hundred and ten
millions of bugs this spring. Many
persons make soup of the insects and
eat them, thus making their crawling
crop pay at both ends.

A GREAT LOSS.
The Enormous Amount of Life which
Has Gone Out OF the American Peo-
ple-Can 1t Ever Be Recovered?

Have you noticed that there are more broken
down men and weak women on our streets to-
day than ever before? Have you not noticed
that certain of your friends, whom you have
always known to be strong and healthy, are, for
some reason weak and low-spirited? Is it not
possible that you yourself feel trihe less Wig
orous than in the past? Is ii a fact that the
American people are growing weaker, or is 1t
due to some local cause? There can be little
doubt that 1T is owing almost entirely to the
fearful after effects of the Grip This terrible
and mysterious complaint, starting unaccount-
ably and running severely, invariably leaves
the person in weak, nervous and rundown
condition, from which it requires much time
to recover.
When people are in such state, when ma
ture is weak and broken, what would common
sense dictate should be done? Precisely what
physicians say should be done, viz: Assist Ma
ture, stimulate her tagging faculties, build her
up. How? BY using pure medicinal stimu-
liant, and Tor this purpose there is nothing
equal to pure whisky. Doctors, scientific men
and the leading thinkers of the land have de-
clared this, and have unhesitatingly agreed
that there Ia no whisky so pnre and efficient as
Dutfy's Pure Malt. 1t stimulates healthily and
builds up wasted tissues; it renews the nervous
organization and assists to health; it is popu-
lar because 1t is so efficient. Great care should
be taken, however, to secure only the genuine.
Distrust any dealer who for any reason seeks to
induce you ID buy something "just as good"
BY the judicious use of this pure stimulant the
after effects of the Grip may be removed and
and debility
