A Chance TO Make Money.

l have berries, grapes and peaches, a
year old, fresh as when picked. use
the California Cold process, do not heat
or seal the fruit, just put it up cold, keeps
perfectly fresh, and costs almost nothing
can put up bushel in ten minutes. Last
week sold directions to over 12C
families; anyone will pay dollar fol
directions. when they see the beautiful
samples of fruit. As there are many
people poor like myself, I consider it my
dry to give my experience to such, and
feel confident any one can make one OF
two hundred dollars round home in a
few days. l will mail sample of fruit
and complete directions, to any of your
readers, for eighteen two-cent stamps,
which is only the actual cost of the
samples, postage, ETC., to me.

We recoml end that the territory of
Alaska be granted delegate i'll Con-
gress, and that the general land timber
laws of United States be extended to
said territory.
We extend our sympathy to the people
of Cuba in their heroic struggle for liber-
ty and Independence.
The Federal government should care
for and improve the Mississippi river and
other great waterways of the republic so
as to insure for the interior States salts
factory and cheap transportation to tide
water. When anv waterway of the re-
public is of sufficient importance to de-
mand aid of the government, such aid
should be extended upon de finite plan
of continuous work until permanent i'm.
provement is secured.
We are opposed to life tenure in the
public service. We favor appointments
based upon merit, fixed terms of office,
and such administration of the civil SER
vice laws as will afford equal opportunity
to all citizens of ascertained fitness,
We declare it to be the unwritten law
of this republic, established by the Gus
ON and usage of 100 years, and sanction
ed by the example of the greatest and
wisest of those who founded and hav e
maintained our government, that no man
shall be eligible tor third term i'll the
presidential office.
We are in favor of the arbitration of
differences between employers engaged
in interstate commerce and their EN-
plOveS. and recommend such legislation
as is necessary to carry out this principle.
Confident in the justice of our cause
and the necessity of its success at the
polls. we submit the foregoing declara-
ton of principles and purposes to the
considerable judgment of the American
people. We invite the support of all
| citizers who approve them and who de-
sire to have to them made effective
through legislation for the relief of the
people and the restoration of the coun-
| try'S prosperity.

health of the child depends on the health

weakness and particularly the weakness
that most strongly influences the health of
children, comes from some arrangement or
disease of the distinctly feminine organs.
All such trouble is as unnecessary as 1t is
terribly distressing. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescri ption will cure all troubles of this
nature. There is no guess-work about this
statement, and there is no qualification
The "Favorite Prescription " should be
used promptly and persistently until the
symptoms entirely disappear. In every
case, it restores perfect health and strength
and assists in the healthful and regular per-
formances of all the natural functions. The
"Favorite Prescription should be taken
regularly by every woman during the entire
period of CESSATION: 1t gives strength to
all the organs involved, lessons the pains
and danger of childbirth and insures the
health of both mother and child.

But it's best to float in a riddle boat
When the Witch Dub's in a lowe;
To tack an twist through the reek an mist
To ned an beck an bow,
To swirk an sing to our ain dark king,

The Beech.

There are some Of our best native
trees which seem to be Systematically
ignored in park and lawn planting.
One is the beech, than which there is
no better or more beautiful lawn tree.
The branches are long and graceful, the
leaves have a peculiarly bright color,
the buds are long, pointed and polished
and the bark Of the trunk and larger
limbs lights up the shade Of the thick
foliage in dark days and shines III the
winter with a pinkish light under clear
skies. It requires a good deal of room
to develop its greatest beauty, but
thrives on most soils, and is not subject
to attacks of insects. We plant its for
eign relative, the copper beech, solely
for the color of its leaves, and our ma
tive, handsomer tree is utterly neglected.
For small lawn tree there is no better
than the near relative of our common
beech. 1t is generally called blue
beech, or iron wood, and makes a
nice shaped tree 10 or 10 feet high. It
is far prettier than the mountain ash or
horse chestnut, both foreign trees and
very liable TO attacks of insects. As far
as ordinary observation goes no leaf
cutting insect troubles the blue beech
The leaves are smaller and darker III
color than those of the common beech,
but in shape and yeining are similar. -
