THE BUSINESS MANS LUNCH.
Hard Work and Indigestion go
Hand in Hand.

Concentrated thought, continued in, robs
the stomach of necessary blood, and this is
also true of hard physical labor.
When Eve horsepower engine IS made
to do ten horsepower work something IS
going to break. Very often the hard
worked man coming from the field or the
Office will "bolt " his food in few min
utes which will take hours to digest. Then
too many foods are about as useful III the
stomach as a keg of nails would be III
FIRE under a boiler. The ill-used stomach
refuses to do its work without the proper
stimulus which it gets from the blood ana
nerves. The nerves are weak and ready
to break" because they do not get the
nourishment they require from the blood,
finally the ill-used brain is morbidly wide
awake when the overworked man at
tempts to find rest in bed.
The application of common sense IN the
treatment of the stomach and the Whole
system brings to the busy man the tull en-
joyment of life and healthy digestion when
he takes DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to
relieve a bilious stomach or after too
hearty meal, and DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery to purify. enrich and
yitalize the blood The Pellets are tiny
supar-coated pills made of highly concen-
trated vegetable ingredients which relieve
the stomach of all offending matters easily
and thoroughly. They need only be taken
for short time to cure the biliousness,
constipation and slothfulness, or torpor, of
the liver; then the Medical Discovery"
should be taken in teaspoonful doses to in
crease the blood and enrich it. 1t has
peculiar effect upon the lining membranes
of the stomach and bowels, toning up and
strengthening them for all time. The
whole system feels the effect of the pure
blood coursing through the body and the
nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not
deadened, or put to sleep, as the so-called
celery compounds and nerve mixtures do
but refreshed and fed on the food they
need for health. If you suffer from indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, nervousness, and any

BRAN FOR MILK.-There is no bet
ter food to make a large quantity of
good milk than wheat bran. 1t should
be made into slop with tepid water
for COWS that have recently calved.
But if fed continuously without grain,
bran will not keep the animal in
good condition, and she will be con-
stantly giving accumulated fat from
her body to put into the milk pail.
This makes the cow poor mixer the
following season. An old dairyman
once remarked that in years following
large corn crops COWS were apt to make
more butter than in years not thus ia
vored. When there is plenty of corn it
is fed freely, not only keeping up milk
flow, but leaving the COW at calving
time in good condition. There is COM
paratively little danger that's cow will
become too fat while giving milk, so as
to endanger her at calving time.
Light and laxative food at this
time will cause the COW to pass through
this period in safety. After calving
time has passed, the fatter a good COW
is the better, for much of this fat the
next months will 60 into the milk pail
to increase the butter product.

KILL WOMEN AND CHILDREN.-The
story of horrible atrocity committed
by Spanish soldiers comes from Cuba
under date of Thursday. Not long
ago, while a regiment of soldiers were
on the march from one town to anoth-
er, they passed group of about 25
women and children. One of the wo-
men made a sneering remark about
the Spaniards and it was overheard.
The soldiers were so exasperated that
they Immediately turned against the
women and children and butchered
them all. At first it was sought to
keep the matter quiet; but it turned
out that two of the murdered wo-
men were wives of loyal Spanish citi-
zens engaged in the saw mill business
not far away. When they learned
how their loved ones had been treated
they Immediately laid the matter be-
fore General Campos, who ordered
that the leader of the troops by whom
the outrage was perpetrated be court
martialed.

A SINGERS ExPERIENCE.-A note

A SINGERS EXPERIENCE.-A noted
American singer is fond of telling of a
little experience she had in Boston
once upon a time. She was to sing at
an evening concert, and carriage was
to be sent for her. She was staying at
the time with friend, who had suit
of rooms in large apartment-house,
in which the tube system of communi-
cation with the outerworld prevailed.
1t was past the time when the carriage
should have appeared, and the lady
was growing a little nervous. She was
sitting with her wraps on, when the
bell rang furiously. Hurrying to the
tube herself, the prima donna said,
"Well ?"
The reply came in a voice heavily
charged with irritation.
"I'm g hackman," said the voice,
SAN was sent here to get some Gus
sed lady, an I don't know what in
time her last name is I've rang every
bell in this house! Are you her ?"
When informed that the "cussed
lady" herself was speaking to him,
he coolly replied:
"Well, come on :; we'll have to lope
it all the way to the hall to get there
on time"

Too MUCH FOR THE DEvIL.-Ac-
cording to the Salem Gazette, this is
Edward Hale's story A man had
sold himself to the devil, who was to
possess him at certain time, unless
he could PROFOUND question to his
satanic majesty which he could not
answer, he being allowed to put three
Queries to him. The time came for
the devil to claim his own, and he
consequently appeared. The first
question the man asked was concern
ing theology, to which it caused the
devil no trouble to reply. The second
he also answered without hesitation.
The mans fate depended on the third.
What should it be? He hesitated and
turned pale, and the cold dew stood on
his forehead, while he shivered with
anxiety, nervousness, terror, and the
devil sneered triumphantly. At this
juncture, the mans wife appeared in
the room with bonnet in her hand.
Alarmed at her husbands condition,
she demanded the cause. When in
formed, she laughed and said: ~ can
PROFOUND question which the devil
himself cannot answer. Ask him
which is the front of this bonnet. "
The devil gave it up, and retired in
disgust, and the man was free.

A MOTHERS REMEDY FOR GROUP.
The following sensible letter of "Hat-
tie" we find in the Cincinnati Enqui.
rer "For the benefit of those who do
not know how to cure the Group, | will
send a neverfailng remedy. 1 have
always doctored my own children
when they had the Group, and have
had over 80 cases, and 1 have never
lost one. Immediately after the first
symptoms, take the child on your lap
and wrap it in warm blanket, put
ting it snugly around the sufferer.
Then have warm fire built, and sit as
close to it as possible. Next give a
double dose of castor oil; put then
about a quart of strong vinegar in a
coffee-pot, and make it boiling hot.
Now open the lid, and let the little pa
tient inhale the steam. This will soon
give relief. Indeed, they will grab for
it after they have tried it. I have
cured membranous Group in this way
when everything else had failed. But
no time should be lost in commencing,
and as soon as the child is moist with
sweat, and wants to sleep, put it in
bed.n

DON'T BANDAGE SORE EYES. The
custom, prevalent among physicians as
we'll as the laity, of tightly bandaging
or tying up the eye as soon as it be-
comes inhamed or sore, is bad one.
The effect upon the eye is bad. 1t
precludes the free access and beneficial
effects of the cool air, and at the same
time prevents or greatly retards the
free egress of the hot tears and morbid
secretions of the inflamed coDjunctivo
or cornea, or both. In those cases, too,
where foreign substance has got into
the eye, the bandage (which is usually
clapped on first thing) presses the lids
more closely against the ball and thus
increases the pain and discomfort by
augmenting the decorations caused by
the foreign body. This cannot fail to
be harmful. In those cases where the
light is painful adjust over the organ q
neatly fitting shade, which, while it
excludes the light, allows the free &C.
cess of air.-Herald of Health.

CUT GREEN BONE HELPS OUT.

Years ago the poultry business was
not as lucrative as it is at the present
time. During the winter months, al
though our poultry was we'll sheltered
and fed, and great care used to keep
the building clean, giving plenty of
fresh water, air, etc., we found at the
opening of the spring, we had no remu-
neration for our labor, as cost of grain,
scraps, potatoes, etc., far exceeded the
income of eggs. We have now bet
ter way of feeding, and most excellent
results have followed. We feed cut
green bone in fair quantity every other
day, and some of the time every day.
They are inexpensive, and with good
bone cutter they make, when cut fresh
every day, so nice food that we only
liken to a nice rare steak to a hungry
man. The fowls love it. They thrive
and the chickens grow rapidly when
fed on it. The mineral part of this
food gives chickens material for their
growing bones, and for the laying hens
the shell, while the meat, gristle and
juices in these green bones give mate
rial for the flesh of the growing chick
ems and interior of the egg in abund-
ance. So now our fowls, instead OF
being over fat in winter, are giving US
eggs; instead of being sorry-looking,
detected, Improbable lot during the
moulting period, they are wide-awake
and strong, and many of them 60 so
far as to give us eggs regularly at this
time. The grain bill being largely re-
duced, the egg yield being increased,
and no loss from sickness, all aid in
making our wiuter and spring record
very encouraging, and no one could
induce us to neglect the feeding Of
green bone freshly cut at all seasons of
the year.-E. H. Davis, in Poultry
Monthly.

k@ One of the most common mis-
takes, and one prevalent even among
the educated classes, is that the heart
is on the left side of the body, notes
the Jewish Messenger. 1t will, doubt
less, come as surprise to most people
to learn that this is all mistake; but
it is, nevertheless, an indisputable fact
that it is the smaller section of the
heart that is to the left side, as a
careful study of the human anatomy
will verify. The popular error regard
ing the position of the most important
organ of the body doubtless owes it's
origin to the fact that the auricle
through which the blood is forced from
the heart into the veins is on the left
side, and when any twitch is felt it is
at that part.

OATMEAL FooD.-The appetite Of
ten Graves food which the stomach re-
jects; but long period of forcing en-
ables it to receive it under protest.
Nor is it the quantity of food that
nourishes, but the quality. A pound
of choice meats at 20 cents is worth as
much nutriment as two pounds of in
ferior meats at 10 cents. An egg is
one of the best and most nutritious
articles of diet that can be put on the
table, and the less it is cooked the
more valuable its digestive and assimi-
lating properties. Since oatmeal has
become delicacy, retailing all the
way from 4 to 25 cents pound, peo-
pie of wealth add it to their cuisine as
a valuable breakfast dish. Carlyle
says of Lord Macaulay: "Well, any
one can see that you are an honest
sort of fellow made ont of oatmeal" !"
There is a story told of a shrewd
Scotchwoman who used to tell her
fine healthy BARNS, "The one that
eats the maist parritch will get the
maist meat" And when the meat
came there was no room for it.
The apologist for national dish
says: "If oatmeal can make such men
as Sir Walter Scott, DR.. Chalmers and
Lord Macaulay, we may heap high the
porridge dish and bribe our children to
eatit. One thing We do know. 1t is
far better for the blood and brain than
cake, confectionery and the score Of
delicacies on which many pale chill
dren are fed by their foolish mothers"

GIVE A TRIAL.

There are yet plenty of farmers who
are skeptical as to the merits of well
bred pigs. To them hog is hog, and
that is all there is about it; and they
argue that with plenty of corn one
will make fully as much again and
as good pork as the other. In a ma.
iority of cases a careful trial would go
a long way toward proving the contra
ry. One of the easiest and less ex'
pensive ways of making trial is to
select one or more good sows and breed
them to a thoroughbred boar, reasona.
bly, we'll matured, possessing individual
merit to an extent that he will be able
to transmit his good qualities to his
offspring. He will readily see that the
pigs from such mating are superior in
appearance and quality and will fatten
more readily than the average scrub.
They will not stand ill treatment bet.
ter, but will make better showing
for good treatment. A we'll bred hog
will make a better gain in less time
with good treatment, than scrub,
and both in appearance, when fattened,
and in the quality Of the meat, when
butchered, will be better than the
scrub. The great improvement or
gain in the better bred hog is in the
ability to consume more food and to
make a better return for it. The
farmer that breeds the better pig with
the expectation that he will fatten in
less time with less ration, will un-
doubtedly be disappointed. A pure
bred pig will degenerate very rapidly
if neglected. One advantage with a
scrub hog is that he does not have far
to go to reach nothingness, and in con-
sequence will stand considerable
amount of ill treatment without any
great appreciable effect. .
To make the most out of good breed,
good feed and care are essential, and
they will always show to better ad.
vantage than with the scrub. With
good treatment we'll bred pig can be
finished for market in from seven to
nine months, while the scrub will re-
quire from twelve to fifteen to make
the same weight, while the quality OF
the meat of the better bred pig will
be much superior and trial carefully
made will be sufficient to demonstrate
this.-Texas Farm and Ranch.

ARE YOU
A THINKING
MAN d?

OR do you let somebody else do your
" studying. If you are thinker we
want you to consider few points which
we will submit. Here they are: Can
you afford to go on from day to day,
week to week and year to year without
throwing around your wife, children or
those dependent upon yod, that iron clad
protection which is absolutely guaran-
teed to them by a policy in first-class
life insurance company? If you decide
that you cannot ignore life insurance, are
you using the same business sense that
characterizes your daily business transac-
tions if you place your insurance with a
company that charges you twice as much
for your protection as it is worth, or as
another company equally as reliable will
furnish it for? The MUTUAL RESERVE
FUND LIFE ASSOCIATION, of New York,
has been in business about Is years and
during that time has paid more than
S22,OOO,OOO to the benefciaries of de-
ceased policy holders. 1t has in force
today as much insurance as the THREE
STONGESTo old line companies had when
they had reached the same age, and some
thing like $50, O,OOO, 900 to spare.
It has more assets, as compared
to liabilities than any company in
the world.
1t has paid every honest death claim
that has been presented, in full, and has
never taken advantage Of tecbnicality,
as other companies often do. Now for a
practical illustration: Say you are 43
years of age: A 5000 life policy (pay as
long as you live in the Insurance
Company, of New York, will cost you
S1SO.5O annually or $3.50 in twenty years,
if you live that long, in cold cash, not
counting interest. The same size policy
in the MUTUAL RESERVE, will cost
you $S6.lO annually, or sl,722 in twenty
years. We will be pleased to explain our
system to you and also to convince you
that any derogatory statement made by
any agent of any old line company doing
business in this section about the Mutual
Reserve, is absolutely false and is inspired
by his desire to sell you something you
will never derive any benefit from. It
will certainly do you no harm to learn all
you can about our company and its plan
before placing your insurance.
