FfIAT letter from James G. Blaine,

Some say that the Eclectic Series OF

The Beauty Standard.

The standard of female loveliness var
les greatly in different counties and with
individual tastes. Some prefer the
plump and buXom type; some admire the
slender and sylph-like, and some the tall
and queenly maiden. But among all
people OF the Caucasian race, one point
of beauty is always admired-a pure,
clear and spotless complexion-whether
the female be of the blonde, brunette, or
hazel-eyed type. This first great requis-
lite OF lovelincss can be assured only by
pure state of the blood, active liver,
good appetite and digestion, all of which
are secured by the use of DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. 1t is guar
anteed to accomplish all that is claimed
for it, or money refunded. If you wonld
have clear, lovely complexion, free
from eruptions, moth patches, spots and
blemishes, use the Golden Medical Dis.

The GOVERNMENT REPORT-

WASHINGTON, April 9-The April report
of the statisticiau of the agricultural de-
partment makes the average condition of
winter wheat on the first of April 81 2 per
cent. and that of rye 81 pei. cent. The
averages of the principal winter-w heat
states are as follows: Ohio. Il; Michigan.
81; Indiana. rs; Illinois, 50; Missouri, 70
aud Kansas -. The average of these six
states is a against 97.3 in April, 1891. 1t
is 81 i'll New York and 81 in PENNSYLVANIA.
In the states from Delaware to North
Carolina it varies from 20 to 81, but it is
80 to 93 in the southern belt east of the
Mississippi and somewhat lower west of
that river. On the Pacific coast the con-
dition is higher
Seeding was generally late in the west
especially. and in the southwest later than
in the states of the Atlantic coast. The
unfavorable seeding conditions were
drought. the difficulty of blowing, lumpy
soil, slow termination and imperfect
stand, and they were naturally followed
by a late and feeble growth. The plant
was therefore generally small when winter
set in and apparently of weak vitality.
The condition in December averaged s.
the present return being a reduction of +.
points. Winter protection by snow was
quite general in New York from January
till late in March. In Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois, the snow covering was not contin-
u,
and partial in others-but better than for
years. In Missouri and Kansas there was
still less snow, but there was some pro-
lection at the time of March freezes.
1t is quite uniformly reported that the
winter was not very severe. and was in
many sections mild. Wiuter-killing was
exceptional, or limited TO fat and wet
areas. Some correspondents note the
lumpy condition of the soil as modifying
the injury by freezing. Many correspon
dents report the crop as improving ia ap-
pearance at the date of the report aud
indicate IA probability OF further i'm
provement, with favorable April weather.
The fact that the low condition is less the
result of winter-killing than late germi-
nation and slow autumn development
renders a material recuperation possible
under favoring meteorological conditions.
The April bulletin will contain report
on the condition of farm animals at the
close OF the winter, and estimates of the
losses during the past year.
