The Universalist parish at La CROSSE,

members. while the city has resigned to
the grave one of it's honored men. His
pastor Rev. @. @. Conner, furnishes the

Very few persons recognize the sources
OF error that come directly from atmos-
pheric conditions on experimenters and
observers and others. In my own case
/ have been amazed at the faulty deduc.
tions and misconceptions which were
made in damp, foggy weather. or on
days in which the air was charged with
electricity and thunder storms were i'm
pending. What seemed clear to me at
these times appeared later to be filed
with error. An actusry in a large in
surance company is obliged to stop work
at such times, finding that he makes so
many mistakes which he is only con-
scious of later that his work is useless.
In large factory from 10 to 20 psr cent.
less work is brought out on damp days
and days of threatening storm. The
superintendent, in receiving orders to be
delivered at a certain time. takes this
factor into calculation. = DR.. T. d.

The Lookout remarks: "Many a
man who boasts that he has no faith in
the Word of God, believes implicitly in
horseshoe hung above the door,"
1t is estimated that during the year
1894. private citizens of the United
States gave not less than s32, 100000, in
sums of 5000 or more. to public objects.
1t is not SO easy to sum up the gifts in
sums less than 5000.

set that down as fundamental truth.
The second speaker at the Unitarian
meeting was an object lesson in this re-
spect, the word he had to utter was not
more simple than any word Of the Gospel.
But he bore it at once to the mind OF his
hearers. By his manner, bis art of state
ment and illustration, his evident mas
terry of his own purpose, he made every
one listen and understand. He had
light; many others have. He let his
light shine: many others bottle their
light up.

MY FOOD DOES NE NO GOOD.

In any city there are many possible
WAYS TO travel from one pointto another.
But between the food on your table and
its destination In the body there is only
one ROAD, directly through The stomach.
There is no going a ound the stomach or
forcing passage through It, Here the
food is detained a while for better or
for worse Here Ii must be digested,-
that is 10 say, changed, liqueted and as
sorted for assimilation; or, failing that,
IL must lie here and rot. generating poi
sonous principles which enter the blooi
aud set up a diseased action throughout
the system This is Indigestion or dys
pepsia, ,-ihe condition that exists when
a person says, "My food does me no
good"
Certainly not. How can itY The more
he eats the more he suffers. The road
is blocked No use putting more grain
ia the hopper when the mill cannot
grind. Here are some of Natures pro-
tests: Loss of appetite; distress after
eating; heartburn; palpitatio1; flashes OF
heat and cold; the rising of nauseous
acids and gases into the throat; furred
tongue; dull and aching head; pains in
the chest and back, weariness, fatigue
and worry; loss Of sleep: cold hands and
feet; yellowish ewes and skin; weakness
and trembling; constipation; failure Of
nervous force and courage. etc etc.
Out of this seething blockade in the
stomach may come any Of dozen local

consumption among them. Yet you

An important Office.

To properly fill its Office and func-
tions, it is important that the blood be
pure. When it is in such a condition
the body is almost certain to be healthy.
A complaint at this time is catarrh in
its various forms. A slight cold devel-
OPS the disease in the head. DrOppings
of corruption passing into the lungs
bring on consumption. The only way
to cure this disease is to purify the blood.
The most obstinate cases of catarrh yield
to the medicinal powers of Hood S Sars-
aparilla as if by magic, simply because
it reaches the seat of the disease, and by
purifying and vitalizing the blood, re-
moves the cause. Not only does Hood 8
SarsaparilIa DO this but it gives renewed
vigor to the whole system, making 1t
possible for good health to reign su-
preme.

Bicycle Notes.

The girl who mas bicycle does not
need wings.
Fate has already decreed that bicycle
girl shall become spinster.
Ride wheel, Mr.. Capitalist, and keep
on good terms with your liver.
A cyclists pleasures should produce
neither headache nor toothache.
Experience is the most costly and the
most Indispensable thing in cycling.
Some people are like corkscrews they
are crooked, but they We got the pull.
1t is bad form for a cycIist TO dispute
the right of way with a motor man or Il
hog.
THE world advances. The son of the
boy who cried for red wagon cries for
IA bicycle.
Authoress Sarah Grand is said to be
riding with grace. Does Grace wear
bloomers? ?
The bicycle cures dudes and drunkards
--or kills them. And in either case the
world is gamer.
The average scorcheT wants to live
only until those whom he eau pass on
the road are dead.
''The upholstered bicycle face" is the
physiognomy the bearded wheelmen is
now accused of having.
The wheelman is extremely good-na-
tured, but he does not like to have any
close friends in race.
All walks of life-eGcept Sidewalks
have been subjected to the beneficial in
fluences of the bicycle.
The number of cycling women in Paris
is said to be at least 5000. The records
show that over 1000 have taken out the
official license.
A Dayton man is adjudged insane be-
cause he believes he has invented bicy-
Gle to run one hundred miles an hour.
He simply lives too soon.
A sense of some impending i'll,
Ger ones perception steals,
What is the nation coming TO
When every one has wheels2
An advertiser gloriOusly announces
that Blank rode his wheel in the races
yesterday. Well, he had to ride some
body's wheel, so what's the odds

OIl u OOlulD Uld WHEEL
And not Iowa State board of health
says the bicycle "has come to stay. ~
Thank Heaven All other States have
made the same announcement and
We can now begin to make its stay Il
pleasant one.
The american Wheelmen finds it a
difficult job to crawl out of the hole into
which it recently fell because of its state
ment that "all Chicago clubs are lot
Of rowdies. " Just now 1t is sticking
at the shoulders.
Justice White, of the supreme court,
having become a cYclist, will soon he

on roadhogism- least if he has the
same experiences with highway Doors rs
have most wheelmen.
The family tandem, with the woman

newness Of the age. And. by the way,
If there were more family tandems there
would be fewer family jars, a vastly less
desirable article of furniture.

For Using profnne Language.

Henry Boston, colored, was foundguil-
ty this morning in the Circuit Court by
a jury, for using profane and abusive
language on the public streets, and fined
81, and to pay fine aud cost in the case,
amounting to $50, and To lie committed
to Jail until fine aud costs are paid. In
passing sentence, Judge Revell on the
bench, took occasion TO lecture the ac-
cused on the pernicious habit of color
ed persons, using abusive and profane
language OH the public streets, and said
should a repetition of the otfense come
before him again he would give the par
ties the full benefit of the law.

Mrs. w. B. Meek, who resides at
