That, of all known agents to accomplish
tn: purpose, DIR. Pierces Pleasant Pellets are
unequaled, is proven by the fact that once
used, they are allCays in favor. Their Sec
ondary effect is to keep the bowels open and
regular, not to further constipate, as is the
case with other pills. Hence, their great
popularity with sufferers from habitual con-
snpation, piles, and indigestion.

tive in arousing the liver to action than .'blue

The Value OF Corn Fodder.

we have always attempted to impress
the farmer with the value of corn fod-
der. Prof Morrow has said that corn
fodder or corn slower may be safely fed
to either horses, cattle or sheep, wheth-
err the animals be young or old. For
hogs which it is desired to fatten rap
idly in the early autumn there is,
probably, NO better food than the still
green and sweet corn fodder. Neither
corn fodder nor corn slower is usually q
desirable food as a sole ration. Many
thousands of fine beeves have been fat
tened with little other food than corn
fodder. Voice.

Roast Calls Liver: This is a cheap
and very palatable dish. Wash the
liver and wipe dry. Cut long cash in
the side and stuff it with dressing
made of bread crumbs, a beaten egg, .
tablespoonful of butter, very little
of minced onion, and salt and pepper
to taste. Moisten the bread crumbs,
add the other ingredients, then press
it into the aperture made for it Sew
or bind the liver together, tie on few
thin slices of bacon, or lard it over,
then bake in moderate oven. Basic,
and when done, serve with currant
jelly.-Orange Judd Farmer.

searching and cleansing cathartic, thereby
removing offending matter from the stom-

To Make camphorated OIL.

Get the common cotton-seed table
oil, which is sold for sweet oil. Small
bottles of retail stores usually cost ten
cents. Half fill siX-ounce bottle with
gum camphor, then fill with oil, and let
it stand in a very warm place over
night. The oil will take up only just
SO much of camphor, and when it is
used off fill with Oil again, repeating
the process until the camphor is dis
solved. This is cheap and clean, and
will not soil clothing. In these grip
days camphorated oil does much good;
it will often entirely dissipate symp-
toms of an influenza cold, to which per-
sons who have had grip seem peculiar
ly liable. Rub across forehead over
and between the eyes. 1t is relief,
too, for the pains in the legs which re-
main long after the attack is over. Rub
with it around sthe muscles and knee
joints, over and under.-N. Y. journal.

The Law Of Self Defense.

When Judge Underwood of Georgia had
charged the jury it was exceedingly dan.
gerous for the defendants counsel to ask
for an additional charge. William Glenn
had been defending big, strapping town
boy, who was charged with an assault
and battery upon q smaller boy. The big
boy had been imposing upon the little fel
lows, and one of them hit him with n
switch and ran. The big boy pursued him,
threw stone at him, cut bad cash in
his head and laid him up for week OF
two The grand jury found a true bill,
and after the closing speech by the solicit
or the judge charged the law very fairly
and then asked if there was any other
charge that counsel desired. Glenn rose
and with some tone of apprehension said,
=" believe your honor omitted to charge
that self defense may justify an assault. "
"Yes, said the judge as he Strengthened
up-"yes, gentlemen, there is such Jaw,
and If you believe from the evidence that
this great, big, double jointed big listed
young gentleman was actuated by feai
and self defense when he ran after that
poor, little, puny, taliow faced boy, and
because he couldn't overtake him picked
up rock big enough TO knock down a
steer and threw it at him and knocked
him senseless, then you can find for the
defendant. Any other charges, Brother

Shooting Affair.

The Evening Press, of Wednesday
gives the following and those who
know the party in question are in hopes
justice will be meted out to him as he
has been the terror of the township for
ears: W. y. Alvoid, aged 81 years,
has been arrested and taken to the
county Jail in Ithaca by Sheriff Petit,
for attempted shooting of r.. Wood
The facts are as follows: This Alvoid,
big Spaniard, and generally recognized
as hard case, has been rather indis-
Greet in the use of his powers, especially
IF late. Recently Wood family,
three brothers and one sister, moved
from Detroit, and II. Wood, the man
in question, owns a farm joining on the
east of Avoids and rents one joining
on the south, in Sumner Township,
about lime miles southwest of Alma.

horseback into the sheep pasture of

Wood demonstrated of course, and then
AlvOid threatened some one would get
shot if he were not careful. But Wood
was not to be bullied or bluffed in this
fashion. On the occasion in question
Alyoid attempted to play the same
little trick with the sheep as before;
but Wood was prepared to do some
thing more effectual than remonstrat-
ing Then Alvoid aimed Winchester
rifle at Wood which he carried, but the
FIRST time it did not go off. Again he
aimed and this time the rifle went off
and very narrowly missed hitting Wood.
There were several witnesses Of the

FEMALE SUI RAGE.

The question OF female suffrage

the arguments for and against it
implies that there are persons
who favor and persons who op-
pose it that believe it is in the
power Of the Legislature 10 grant

however. is not the fact, Tie

vada. section 1, article II, pro
vides taht every white mae citi-
zen of the United States
shall be entitled to vote for al

This restricted The suffrage to
white male citizens OF the United
States Of the age Of twenty one
years or upwards. The fifteenth,

the United States declHes: ''phe
right of the citizens OF the United
States to vote shall not be denied
or abridged by the United States
or by any State. on account OF
race, color OF previous condition

This aanuted the restriction to
white male citizens IN the Nevada
constitution. and had the word
"sex" been included with race
and color it would have given
women tho franchise. regardless

however, whether purpose.y OF

suffrage was given male Nee roef
