Dangerous Use OF Strong Purgatives

Pills and purgatives which act
quickly upon the bowels, irritate
and destroy the mucous Innings
of the stomach and bowels. A
continued use of such remedies
inhames the stomach and bowels.
The use of the genuine imported
Carlsbad Sprudel Salt is highly
recommended because its action
is due solely to its solvent and
stimulating properties, without
irritating the stomach. Best re-
suits are obtained when outdoor
exercise can be had. Obtain the
genuine imported article only.

A Linn Grove girl found package
OF love letters that had been written
to her mother by her father before they
were married, says the Sioux Rapids
Republican. The daughter saw that
she could have little sport and read
them to her mother, substituting her
own name for that of her mother and o
fine young man for that of her father.
The mother jumped up and down her
chair, shifted her feet. seemed terribly
disgusted and forbade her daughter
having anything to do with a young
man who wrote such sickening and
nonsensical stuff to girl. When the
young lady handed the letter to her
mother to read the house became SO
still that one could hear the grass
growing In the back yard.

Special washington Letter.

There are many mysterious things in
daily life which seem to be beyond the
analytical power of ofscientiflcmen and
one of the most wonderful of them alI
is the Washington boarding house sau-
sage. 1t is like the wind which bloweth
where it listeth, and no man knoweth
whence it cometh nor whittier it goeth
Everybody likes sausage and children
cry for 1t; but what it is made of, or by
whom, is question not easy to answer

how 1t is made sausage Is sausage, the
people like It, are bound to have it, and
a description of its manufacture will
make it no sweeter.
The keeper of prominent restau-
rant here gives sausage sandwich free
lunch every day, which is very popular
In large chatting dish he has count
less number of small sausages SWIM
ming in their own gSavy. A big. smiling
colored man stands behind the counter
with large fork in his right hand.
For an hour or more he is kept busy Dip
ping large slices of bread in the gravy
and placing hot sausagcs between
them, which regular customers of the
place take upon little saucers and ea.
with dainty little knives and forks
The guests never ask any questions
about their sausages, but They are all
right, anyway, for the proprietor is u
tirst-class caterer who never serves any
thing but the best the market affords,
no matter what the price may be. His
china, napkins, tablecloths and all
things about the place are of the finest,
and everything is clean and homelike.
The very antipode of this place was
the stage of scene from real life
which is worthy of mention, although
there is nothing about sausage in it.
A chronicler of events was seated in the
restaurant of the house of representa-
tives at the capitol when two ladies and
a gentleman entered and were shown to
one of the tables by waiter. Hardly
had the party been seated when one Of
the ladies exclaimed: "Oh, let's move
to the next table; this cloth is soiled."
And they accordingly moved. The in
cident might be taken as text for a
short sermon on the lack of neatness
in the ordinary restaurant and eating
house. The proprietors all seem to
think that il multitude and variety of
dishes are furnished for a reasonable
amount of money they have done as
much as they could be expected to do
for the comfort and accommodation Of
the public. Now, to many persons, o
neat-looking table, with silver bright
and clean, the glasses shining, the cloth
unsoiled, the napkins ample and white
all these things are absolutely neces-
sary before they can enjoy meal. 1t
matters not to them how many meats
and entrees and vegetables are served
if the surroundings are such as to BAN
ish an appetite. A big blotch of gravy
here, berry stain there and other un-
mistakable indications that the preced-
ing diner had had coffee, while the
drinking glasses are dingy, and the
knives and forks greasy, are too COM
mon in some of the city restaurants.
Neatness first and abundance after
ward might better be their motto. The
only way to compel improvement is t.
criticise, upon the principle that cline
upon line and precept upon precept"
will ultimately have their effect and
produce satisfactory results.
"The best made sausage" says a
prominent restaurateur, lis too rich
for people who have delicate digestive
organs. 1t is composed of so many in
gradients and is so highly seasoned
that only strong men and women can
digest it. By the way, do you know
that the best tonic and aid to digestion
which is furnished by nature is lemon
juice? 1t is fact; and in serving sau
