Well" replied he, I'm Q plain man, and I like to be fair to everyone. don't go by what the Uit- nesses say, and don't go by what the lawyers say, and I don't go by what tho judge says; but looks at the man in the dock, and says: He must have done something or he wouldn't be there, So l brings 'em all in guilty"

A DECEPTIVE TARGET.
It Costs Something % Learn to Hit the
 DaIglinS ESaEb


 \ shooting gallery peculiarity that has recently came into popularity con si:::.; i-l a vcry light and fragile ball of blown class. or ii some cases hollow ,1rs .ll4ll eu>pcndcd from a string.
 I:.ia alvcv5 attracts the inexperi- cnccI IT F2e,. because tho natural .ie,tlT;ct ircI:ass inherent in human na- tJ,rs caaac5 him to prefer to shoot at soIacti3ing which he can smash rather .h2n ;t q target that gets no harm from his accuracy.
 Therefore. says the New York Sun. Ec wastes hi, three shots. at one and tvvO-thills cents shot, not on targets. o3t on tho suspended mark. And he never hits it.
 The experienced man in rifle range gurn4ry wastes no time on the de- c.it1t!l ball. lie knows that it can't be hit. Probably he knows it from cx- pcricrce. for it iS one of those facts that no man will believe until he has tried t for himself.
 Th2 reason for it is that very light hollow glass ball. or blown egg if properly hung on a slender thread will dodge any bullet that ever came from gun barrel. The air that the bullet piles up in front of it blows the lipht mark out Of the proicctile's path until 1t has passed, after which the target swings back to it's original DO, sition.
 This is very provoking for the marks man. who, if hc bc a good shot, has :ilc doubtful satisfaction cf seeing his argct execute three qUiclz dodges at .t-e aforementioned price of one and oyvo-thir<jS cents per dodge
 There is nothing, however, so re- n-rorative to the proprietor as these pendent marks, for the gunners, pro volzod ct their lAcl1 O. success. will keep CT or.l on and on trying to hit a mark compared to which pin head wCald nc q barn door shot, and they only give 1t i,D il disgust when the cost be gins to tell upon them or when some wiser frlcrd explains their lack of sue cess.
 Two dollars is cheap price to pay for the knowledge that one of these hanging targets is g better mark for q ;iascbali than fer d bullet.

A WOMAN'S DESPAIR.
COULD SEE NOTHING AHEAD BUT
A LIFE OF PAIN.
She Tells q Reporter How She sufered-How
She Was Acured-And How Her Life Has
Been Frightened by the Sunshine Of Health.

From the Drych, Utica; \. "
Mrs. F.. Mclaughlin who resides at So
Miller Street, Utica, y. Y. but formerly
lived at ITO Seymour Avenue, in the same
city, il IA lady nearly seventy years old
She was born at Marcy, Oneida County, n.
Y. and has resided in Oneida County all
her life and is well known there. 1t was
reported in Utica that Mrs. Mclaughlin
| had been wonderfully cured of severe at
tack of rheumatism, as well as indiges-
ton. by the use of DR.. Williams Pink
| Pills for pale people, a reporter of Drych
was sent to interview her on the subject
and get the true facts.
| Mrs. Mclaughlin said she had been al
aicted with rheumatism for about twenty
years and was at times unable to rise
| from her chair Her suffering was In
tense, and she was sometimes driven near
| ly wild with the agonizing pain. VI late
she had also been troubled with 1ndiges-
ton and her health had become greatly
undermined. She was almost us
couraged being unable to get RELIEF either
from the doctors or through the numerous
remedies which she tried. Mrs McLaugh-
lin had often read Of the cures effected by
Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
but after her many failures to obtain re-
lief through other remedies she had Dut
little confidence that anything would help
her. She continued to grow worse from
day to day and had given up all hope or
ever being restored to health. One day
Mrs. Mclaughlin spoke of Pink Pills to a
friend who was calling upon her 1t hap
pened that this friend had had some ex-
perience with Pink Pills and knew their
value. She urgently advised Mrs. Nc
Laughlin to give them trial, which she
consented to do She procured one box
and before its contents had been entirely
used she noticed quite an improvement in
her health She waited some time before
getting another After IA while she de-
cided to keep on with them, and when
| she had taken three boxes she was COM
pletely cured She Is no longer troubled
| with indigestion. and when seen by the
representative of Drych was walking
| around as briskly as anyone Of her age
could be expected to do.
Subscribed and sworn to before me this
18th day of July, 1895.

Permanently Cures rheumatism.

There is nothing wonderful about the
fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla perfectly
and permanently cures rheumatism be-
cause it Is well known that rheumatism
Is caused by Tactic acid in the blood, and
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the one true blood
purifier Last spring l was troubled
with that tired feeling and had more or
less trouble with rheumatism especially
when / took cold, / began taking Hood 5
Sarsaparila and used five bottles. 1t has
built me up and given me strength and
have not had any rheumatism since TAX
ing it, regard Hoods Sarsaparilla rs
an excellent medicine and propose to be
gin taking it for catarrhal troubles. y
