The arms are all attached to the same body.
: Impure blood reaches out in all directions
over the human body 1t stretches out
tentacle and grasps one organ or another
1t attacks the liver and the sufferer is said
to have liver complaint" 1t attacks the
lungs and he is said to have consumption.
1t reaches his kidneys, and the doctors say
he has kidney disease and treat his kidneys.
These so-called diseases are only symptoms.
They all reach back to the same cause, and
that cause is impure blood And impure
blood is usually caused by imperfect diges-
ton. The way TO kill devil fish is to at
tack its head and body. 1t might be killed by
cutting off its arms, but it would take long
time. While one was being cut off, others
would fasten themselves on the victim.
The way to cure disease is to cure the
cause of the disease to go right at the
head of the matter. There is no use treat
ing symptoms. Disease cannot exist in a
body that is perfectly pure and full of
healthfull, strengthening properties. 1t
can be made pure by the use of DR.. Pierce's
great medicine, the Golden Medical
Discovery" II is because of its wonderful,
blood purifying and invigorating qualities
that this remedy is so marvellous in its eff
feet on diseases of the throat, bronchial
tubes and lungs It cures ninety-eight per
cent. of all cases of consumption. It stops
lingering, chronic coughs, and builds up
those who are rundown" emaciated or
debilitated from any cause. II makes sound,
firm, healthy flesh. 1t makes people strong.
1t invigorates the blood, and stimulates the
action of every organ in the body. The
three things that it does are the three things
that must be done in every case before
health can come 1t steadies and strength
ems the nerves makes digestion perfect
makes the blood pure and rich. There is
nothing in the world just like it, There is
nothing in the world that is lust as good, +"
tell you SO, for the sake of the profit they
will make on inferior articles

self in the spreading of a drop OF oil
over the surface of water. A firm l-30
millionth Of an inch in thickness pro-
duccs marked results, says the Rail
way Review, and yet to cover the
whole 1875 acres OF painted surface
OF the Forth bridge with coat Of
that thickness would require less than
IL pint OF oil. 1t would appear Incon-
ceivable that such a membrane could
in any way affect the ocean in storm,
yet when, in the winter Of 1891. Ad.
miral Cuvervllc's ship, the Naiade,
was caught in cyclone In the north
Atlantic, and greasy touch was
given to the waters by rigging out two
coal sacks, each filed with about II
pounds OF tow and one gallon of COLA
oil, which latter required renewal
only every six hours, the scientific and
trained observers on board the French
warship reported the result to be a
remarkable practical success, the oil
taking effect upon the dangerous
breakers due to horizontal translation
produced by the wind, but, Of course
leaving the swell unaffected.

pulling it. Her sails untitled, her
streamers dropping, she had neither
side wheel nor stern wheel; still she
moved on steadily, in serene triumph,
as with her own life. But l knew
that on the other side of the ship,
hidden beneath the great bulk that
swan so majestcally, there was lit
tie tollsome steam tug, with heart Of
fire and arms Of iron, that was tugging
it bravely on; and knew that il the
little steam tug untwincd her arm and

There is a new plant known as
Katlir corn, that is being introduced
in parts of the country. 1t Is said to
be very much like sorghum, having
seed and head very much alike. Its
head is much more compact than that
of sorghum. 1t is cultivated much in
the same manner as corn, and is ex-
cellent feed, the head, stalk and rod-
der all being consumed.

Some hopeful spectators who have
been counting unhatched chickens,
are about to start poultry ranch
near San Francisco, which is to reach
its full capacity in three years, when
is to put on the market annually two
million eggs and ninety thousand
chickens for broiling. The plant will
include twoincubators with capacity
OF 1000 eggs each, and no end OF
houses and pens, which will be con.
taIncd in Il forty-acre ranch. There
will be nine hundred hens laying fol
the market. The whole thing figures
handsome profit, but people who
have experience with hens are doubt
ful Of its success.
