"YOur Money or Your
Life!O

Such demand, at the mouth of a
4'six-shooter," sets a man thinking
pretty lively! With little more
thinking, there would be less suffer
ing.
Think of terrible results of
neglected consumption! which
might easily be averted by the time
ly use of Natures Great Specific, DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
Consumption, which is Lung-scro.
fula, is constitutional disease, and
requires just such thorough and
effectual constitutional remedy!
Taken in time, before the lung
tissues are wasted, it is guaranteed a
radical cure! Equally certain in all
scrofulous affections and blood dis
orders. Large bottles, one dollar, Of

Blue-Grass League.

The Jessamine Journal says: The
effort being made to reorganize the
old Blue Grass League of base ball
clubs is meeting with encouragement
from all quarters. The league will
probably be composed of the follow
ing clubs: Georgetown, Lexington,
Frankfort, Versailles, Nicholasville,
Harrodsburg, Winchester and Dan
vile. A meeting will be held at an
early date, probably at Lexington, to
perfect the organization and adopt a
constitution and bylaws. Each club
that becomes member of the league
shall deposit a guarantee, which
shall 60 into a general fund for the
purpose of giving the winning club
prize at the end of the season.
Each club will be allowed to have the
services of but one professional or
nonresident player. The teams will
then be composed of home talent,
which will greatly increase the local
interest in the game. Taking every
thing into consideration, Nicholas
vile made very fair showing last
season, and should be a very good
drawing card. A plan is on foot in
Harrodsburg to organize a stock
company and will probably be sue
cessful. 1t would not be a bad idea
for our base ball enthusiasts to do
likewise.
A baseball league, composed of
clubs from Centre College, Danville,
the A. and M. College and Kentucky
University, Lexington, Georgetown
College and Central University, Rich
mond, to play during the months of
April, May and a portion of June,
will be organized at an early day.

Ordinary chewing gum is made Of gum
chicle, sugar and q variety Of favors.
Gum chicle is merely O form of India
nnbber. The gum has o certain quality
of sugar added to 1t to sweeten and make
II palatable. 1t will be noticed that In
chewing gum after IL has been In the
mouth awhile the sugar and flavor ara
entirely gone, and what remains Is the
rubber-like product which is the chicle
gum nearly pure. This gum is the sap of the
sapodilla, Mexican tree. II is collected
like India rubber sap, by cutting incl
sions in the bark between the months OF
November and April, and after the gum
has been gathered it is packed in sacks,
200 pounds to the sack.
1t is then q light colored mass, appar-
emily about halfway between gutta
percha and India rubber. In the factories
II Is washed, dried and mixed, and when
run OF on spreaders Is cut into sticks,
wrapped and packed ready for shipment.
Within few years the industry has as
sumed large proportions, and the demand
for 1t seems to be growing. In England
they do not chew gum, looking down on
the habit as vulgar and even disgusting,
but Australia seems to have taken to II
kindly, and is already making large de-
mands on the resources of the Americap
gum manufacturers.
