New England farmers are trying to force

Randall, inquiring in relation to their
breed, method of feeding and any other

The cause Of the disease was that ter

the hospital in few months or when the
weather became warmer Even during

DIED OF BROKEN HEART.
Some Singular Cases of the Effect of gud.
den EpDtiOn,

In the old days, VIXEN the practice Of
medicine was according to a lot of illog-
lcal empirical notions, "broken heart was
often set uown as causing death. Later
In the youth of medical science, it was de-
clarcd that there was no such thing as
hcart break, and it is not SO many years
even now since the doctors found out that
excessive emotion does sometimes actually
cause rupture of the marvellous muscle
that, strongest and at the SAME time most
delicate of the human body, sends the life
olood coursing and pulsating through ev-
cry artery OF tho entire system. 1t seems
TO be agreed by doctors that Mrs Agnes
Wolf of Brooklyn died of broken heart, for
the certificate of death gave "heart failure
ana excessive GRIEF as tho cause. Mrs.
VOLTS grief was on account OF the death of
hcr mother. 1t was in June that relief
came to tho elder woman, who had suffered
from painful illness for months, and the
younger was never herself again. After
her death her funeral was delayed several
days in order to enable the doctors TO def
nltely decide upon the cause of her death.
1t is not often that heart break operates So
slowly. Usually it causes death In q few
hours, If not instantly.
One of the saddest deaths that might
properly be spoken of as due to broken
heart occurred on Sept ten years ago in
Cadiz, o. The victim was Miss Alice Me
Clba, young and exceedingly Intelligent
girl OF rather nervous temperament. She
was engaged to marry james Nash,
young man who was given to joking. On
the Saturday evening prior to his sweet
hearts deith young Nash called upon her,
according to his weekly custom. During
the entire evening he allowed his rather
clumsy wit full play. When he was ready
to go, after kissing the girl good night, he
turned suddenly and said:
well, Alice, guess won t come to sec
you again. We've had good time playing
engaged, haven't we? Well be friends ali
our lives now, but that's ALL"
Alice looked searchingly in his face and

learned of a most humane and kind meth
cd of curing a balky horse 1t not only
never fails but it does not give the slight
est pain to the animal. When the horse re-
fuses to go, take the front foot at the fet-
lock and bend the leg at the knee joint.
Hold 1T thus for three minutes, and let it
down, and the horse will go. The only
way in which l can account for this effect
i've mastery of the horse is that he can
think of only one thing at time, and
having made up his mind not to go my
theory is that the bending of the leg takes
his mind from the original thought. -

crossed so far as to induce repeated bleed
ings from the lungs. severe lingering cough
with copious expectoration (including tu-
bercular matter), great loss of flesh and eE-
treme emaciation and weakness.
Do YOU doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery" were genuine cases OF that
dread and fatal diseasel You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever i'll mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
but who have been forced to confess that
fatal nalady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy 'emulsions and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
q short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypo-
phosphites had also been faithfully tried
in vain.
The photographs of large number Of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
