ROUTING AN ARMY.

How the Worst Invasion of Modern Times
IL Absolutely Overcome-Hints of Great
Value.
When men or women feel depressed or de-
bfhtated at the present day, it is common TO
hria? Ii Is only germs that get into the body;
germs that thrive and increase unless they are
killed; germs that worm themselves all through
dermine the life. They are aggressive they
feed upon the body, they must be killed. Many
things which have been advocated for killing
these germs will not do so. II has been thought
that quinine would accomplish this, but many
people cannot take quinine, it disagrees with
them, il often nauseates. II is known. how
ever, that pure spirits taken in moderation viii
kill and entirely exterminate the worst army Of
germs which ever invaded the system They
cannot withstand il. Under the influence Of
pure stimulsnts the germs are killed, and the
body IL strengthened to expel them from the
system. and thus restore the health
II should not be understood. however, that
al spirits will do this. few will II requires
something specially pure, and specially de-
signed for this purpose, and that Is precisely

rank with the ordinary WHISTLES, but IL specially
designed for terrifying the body and repelling
disease. Il has the highest Endorsements Of
doctors and scientists; il IL wonderfully popular

BENNISG, d. G., June Z, 1897.
Calling on q neighbor on the Anacostia road
she informed me that she expected to lose her
turkey gobbler, as he had been under the corn
house several days, and must be sick At the
next call I learned that the hired man
had been under the house to bring the turkey
out to see what was the matter. He came out
laughing with the intelligence that the gobbler
had made a nest and was setting on three eggs.
The eggs wer6taken away and the nest broken
up. He made another nest, and whensdiscov-
cred had two eggs under him. Finding he was
determined to set. Sufficient number Of eggs
was given him, and he was let alone. OF course
at each call inquired about this masculine
that without entirely giving up his attentions to
the hen turkeys had assumed their most arduous
duties. q
Three weeks expired, no chickens appeared
(the eggs were not turkey eggs, but on the
twenty-fourth day four little chickens were
taken from the nest and several Of the eggs
were piPped. The next morning between and
o'clock the dog made such o noise that be
walked his mistress. As he seemed anxious to
get out his mistress opened the door and he
made for the corn house. Az soon ~ che could
make ready she followed him and found the
gobbler In towering rage, seizing the chickens
by the throat, stretching himself TO his full
height and seemingly beyond it, slinging ths
chickens In all directions. The last victim was
taken from him aud was not dead Mt shutdown
and the four that were taken away ut drst ware
little beauties and doing well. after complet-
ing the massacre Of chickens the turkey tore up
the nest, scattering ths straw and empty shells
in al directions and spent tho day struttine
around and gobbling - ff.he wanted the whole
