A PRETTY PICTURE.
Hut Not Realistic the Least Little lit Tn
 the World.

the world.
 Such romantic pictures as one sees in art galleries of demure, Vatican maidens strolling through the loveliest meadows in costumes fit for a reception or ball! The artists quite revel in satin and silk, tinted slippers, elbow sleeves and falls of lace and it makes the rabid individuals who go in for realism al- most foam in helpless rage.
 Look at that picture! Look at it, I ! say!' shouted one of these indignant critics one day, pushing me in front of | a poetical dream from some aristocratic brush. Isn't that enough to make a person lose faith in his fellow mortals? Why, that artist ought to be 'skied' clear through the roof up to the starry canopy for preaching such a lesson of extravaganza to the women who look at his work! What if they all rush off and array themselves in lowered rose | brocade, Venetian point, dancing slip pers and silk hosiery and then prance through a country meadow? Why, great Scott, the bank failures would I not be in it! If country meadows were | "ii uo @"O1uSbb' -Sdi pSb-AihS anu SISdh | as this painted one, it would be all right, but trailing over wet clover was never known to improve brocade, and the wreck those pink slippers would be in after a half-acre jaunt, quite shocks | me.
 'Brambles have no more considera- tion for point lace than if it were five | cent cotton, and while torn flags of | fOunce waving from various mullein stalks might be consid cred ornamental by the cows, their appreciation is not quite educated enough to warrant such extravaganza. It's absurd-pooh!" the enraged critic spluttered. And do you suppose any right-minded girl, with hands as soft and snow-lilSe as this piece of folly, would expose her arms to her elbows in the sun to be freckled and tanned? Why, you know she's have on long gloves an inch thick, now, don't you, and broad hat and a veil, and sunshade and powder-puff in her pocket, and be trying to remem- Der that splendid recipe for sunburn. Oh, want to go off and die hard when l run up against picture like this it disturbs my uttermost soulr' And the desperate person walked hurriedly off to still-life study of brass kettles.
 But, oh, it was such a pretty picture, girls, anyway!-N Y. Recorder.

Allowances for Encampments.

TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. 8.-The state military board, which met here this week, made final allowances for the military encampments which have been held during the fall. The en- campments cost the state s6, 900. Each of the three regiments had an encamp- ment costing s2,000. No special appro- priation was made for these encamp- ments, but as the number of companies was reduced and the armory rent re- duced one-half, enough was saved out of the company expense account to pay the expenses of the encampments. The board had under consideration the equipment of another cavalry company.

CHICAGO papers have curious story of an incendiary. The insurance peo- pie for year past have been puzzled by fires which burned up small stores with remarkable swiftness and com pleteness. They have at length formu- lated the theory that one man made all the mischief He would find a mer- chant anxious for fire and would un- dertake the job. Then he would scat ter through the store pigs bladders sfilled with benzine, which were ex- ploded by time fuse. In this manner the work was done and no traces left. The incendiary has not yet been ar rested.

The Greatest Medical Discovery
 of the Age.
 KENNEDY'S MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXDuRY, MASS,

Has discovered in one of our common pasture weeds a remedy that cures every kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple.
 He has tried it in over eleven hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases (both thunder humor). Hehas now in his possession over two hundred certificates of its value, all within twenty miles of Boston.
 A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and perfect cure is war ranted when the right quantity is taken.
 When the lungs are affected it causes shooting pains, like needles passing through them; the same with the Liver or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being stopped, and always disappears in week after taking it.
 If the stomach is foul or bilious it will cause SqueamiSh feelings at first.
 No change of diet ever necessary. Eat the best you can get, and enough of 1t. Dose, one tablespoonful in water at bei. time. Read the Label. Send for Book.

Ia 1887 the Territory OF Dakota through
it's Legislature ordered a compilation, or
a new c~odification, of all then existing
laws on It's statute books. Messrs. Cald-
well, of Sioux Falls, and Price, of High
more, performed the work Of compiling
and publication. To be the basis OF flu
ture legal enactinents, the compilation
should have been legalized by legislative
enactment after it was compiled, but in
stead, the subsequent Legislature adopted
the c~odiication by simply specifyin that
it be- considered as the authoritative inter-
probation of the statute when used In
courts. The actual law was the original
statutes from which these were compiled.
It now transpires that most of the laws
amended by the Legislature last winter
land amendments comprise the bulk OF
last winters legislative work. were spec
flied according to this compilation and
not referred back TO the original statute
or code, hence the question Of constitu-
tlonality has been raised against them,
and ii test case will soon be carried up to
the Supreme Court to test the matter.

SPRING TIME.
The Best season or the Year To Trea
ChrNnfc syafarrh.


Chronic Catarrh.
Notwithstanding that a great number
OF people haye been cured OF cronic
catarrah by taking Pe-ru-na during the
past cold season, yet it can not be denied
that the cold, wet. stormy winter has
retarded many cures, and In some cases
actually prevented a cure. But, after
unusual delay, spring time has come at
last, and now is the time for all catarrh
sufferers to begin a systematic course OF
treatment for this disease. The greatest
difficulty in the way of treating chrome
catarrh is that the patient is so liable to
catch cold during the treatment, and
thus delay a cure. This liability at this
season Of the year is, in a great measure,
removed, and no one should neglect the
opportunity to begin treatment. Send
for free catarrh book.
As a spring medicine Pe-ru-na is a
never-failing remedy. Ii cleanses the
blood through digestion, and gives tone
to the whole system by increasing the
nutritiye value of the food. "Spring
fever" as it is sometimes called, which
produces a tired-out, sleepy feeling, and
inability TO do much mental or physical
work, is the result of a sluggish diges-
ton, and no blood medicine will be OF
any use whatever unless it is able to rec
tify the impaired digestion. The great
popularity that Pe-ru-na has is due to
the fact that in all such cases it at once
corrects digestive arrangements and en-
riches the blood by purifying this very
important source of that vital fluid
