THE BUSINESS MANS LUNCH.
Hard Work and Indigestion go Hand in iiand.

Concentrated thought, continued in. robs the stomach of necessary blood, and this is also true of hard physical labor.
 When five horsepower engine is made 10 do ten horsepower work something is going to break Very often the hard woTAed man coming from the field or the office will bolt " his food in a few niu utes which will take hours to digest. Then too, many foods are about as useful in the stomach as keg Of nails would be in ] hre under a boiler. The ill-trsed stomach refuses 10 do its work without the proper stimulus which it gets from the blood and nerves The nerves are weak and ready to break" because they do not get the nourishneit they reqrire from the blood, finally the ill-rsed brain is morbdly wide awake when the overwOrked man at tempts to find rest in bed
 The application of common sense in the treatment of the stomach aud the who,a system brings 10 the busy man the full en- joyment of life and healthy digestion when, he takes Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to- relieve bilious stomach or after a too hearty meal, and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to purify, enrich and vitalize the blood. The Pellets" are tiny sugar coated pills made of highly eoncen- tfated vegetable ingredients which relieve the stomach of all offending matters easily and thoroughly. They need only be taken for short time to cure the biliousness. constipation and slothfuiuess, or torpor, of the liver; then the Medical Discoverv,s should be taken iti teaspoonful doses to in- crease the blood and enrich it. It has d peculiar effect upon the lining membranes of the stomach and bowels, toring lip and strengthening them for all time. The whole system feels the effect of the pure blood coursing through the body and the nerves are vitalized and strengthened. not deadened, or put to sleep, as the so-caled celery compounds and nerve mixtures do but refreshed and fed on the food they need for health. If you suffer from indi- gestion. dyspepsia, nervousness, and any Of the ills which come from impure blood and disorderedo stomach, you can fft,e rontgrT with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery which can be obtained at any drug store in the country.

wm. Rutfs Mind Dethroned.

Vim. Ruff. an energetic and pros ,.raus farmer living on Crow creek pb,nt nllie from Madison. is confined in the county Jail awaiting the time when he will be carried to the state in- sape asylum. The story is d sad one. Fu about twelve years has MT. Ruff suffered from occasional attacks of ppi- lspsy. Manifestations of approaching rnrvulsluns were noticed by the mem- bers of his household about two weeks aro. 5nt so strongly was it hoped that hp would escape them, that no physi- elan was called in until Thursday of last week. Ehen the attacks be- came so violent that Dr. White was called. He felt hopeful of his physical rpcovpry. being unable to forecast the nr ,bible effect upon his mind. until sunday morning. when he was called in again. pr. White advised that he bp not left alone. as his condition WAS. at times. such that his family. consisting of wife and six smal chit ,lrpn. were unsafe iron the outcome of his destructive inclinations. Com mencing sunday faurning, Mir. Ruff had nineteen spasms in,the succeeding 52 hours.
 Monday afternoon, all of his other weapons having been carefully placed beyond his reach, 1t was thought best to remove his pistol from d trunk in which it had been hitherto locked The party taking it was savagely attacked hy Nr Ruff, and but for the timely intervention of l.. H. McGutfey, it is probable that the mad man would have secured possession of the pistol.
 Tuesday morning he came to town with Messrs. Barker and Crippen. for tlIe purpose of ordering some medicine, which. at one of his frequent lucid intervals. he had concluded would help him Arriving here. he called on o. 4. FZell for cartridges. but Mir Ezell's $ ce-k had been warned of his condi- ton and refused to sell them. His condition became such that it was thought best to confne him. Sheriff Williams took him to the county jail. and Judge C0wan began making ar YangemeHts tehave him placed in the asylum If there is room.

ERIE, Pa, August 27.-Wm. j.
Bryan made his fourth, and last speech
in Erie, this morning, and shortly after,
left for Buffalo, where his headquarters s
will be for the rest of the week.
Mr.. Bryan, in the course Of his re-
marks, said: "This is q peculiar cam
paign. The people are engaged in
this fight because they believe the tri-
umph Of the principles represented by
the Chicago platform is absolutely
necessary to the welfare of the nation.
It is not merely an attempt to secure
the presidency, or to divide the offices
among few people. The Offices cut
no figure in this campaign. [Cheers.
We have no fear bat that the senate
which convenes on the 4th of March OF
next year will be in favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of both gold
and silver al the present legal ratio,
16 to l, without waiting for the aid or
the consent of any foreign nation. But
it is necessary that we shall have the
house also. The house to-day is in the
hands Of the enemy and we must take
possession of the house, in order to put
any good measure that may be enacted
into operation. / beg Of you, in every
congressional district in tlis land, to
see to it that no man shall receive a

MRS. BEEcHER.
The Wife Of the Great Divine Being congrat.
uIated on Her Natal Day.

BROOKLYN, N. Y, August 26.-A
small, delicate woman, with q serene
look, and shoulders but little bent by
the weight of years, is to-day receiving
the congratulations of her friends upon
her eighty fourth birthday. She ia the
widow OF him who was once Americas
greatest divine, Rev. Henry Ward
Reecher. Despite her troubles and
fluctuations, she looks years younger
than she really is, although her mental
attitude, to- day,is simply one Of patient
waiting for the end that comes to all.
She lives alone with one servant, re-
ceiving numerous visitors, does con-
siderable sewing, spends hours with her
bible, and sleeps but five hours out OF
the twenty -four. On the first finger of
her right hand. she wears seal ring
that belonged to Mr.. Beecher, and
which she prizes above everything.
Her face, although wrinkled. is almost
beautiful, her features are perfect and
her complexion like ivory. She attrib-
utes the secret Of her youthfulness to
the fact that she has determined never
to become an old woman.

KNIuHrs OF ThR MAccABEEs.

Among the great number of fraternal be-
neficiary organizations doing business to-
day, the knights Of the Maccabees is the
peer.
1t has graded assessments, based upon
the actuaries table of mortality, hence,
being scientifically based, it enables the
management to stipulate the number Of
assessments per year, beyond question.
Protection for those dependent upon
them at the lowest cost consistent with
unquestionable security, Is what the insur-
ing public of the great southwest have
been clamoring for. Gentlemen, in the
Maccabees you will find the desired secur-
ity, and we urgently request your per.
sonal examination concerning our plans
and methods.
The great advancement Of the order can
be best understood by careful study Of
the following, viz:
Protection in force December 3lst., 1895,
S255. 900, 900; total benefits paid to Decem-
bsr S,st., 1895, s5,s5l, 1858; benefits paid
for the year 1895, ,575,671.21; member
ship December 31st., 1894, LIS, ,727; member
ship December S1st., 1895, 2lS, ,0O5; members
admitted in 1895, $4,000; net gain in mem
bership in 1895, s9,27s; new members first
half Of 1896, 8S,176; total membership July
S1st., 1896, 240,040; emergency fund July
5fst., 1896, over $50, 900. 90; same being In.
vested In United States bonds; mortality
per each 1000 members, 1890. Sc go; mortal
ity per each 1000 members, 1894, s. 80 ;
mortality per each 1000 members, 1895,
$3.50. Note the commendable decrease in
the mortality, which speaks In loudest
terms, relative to selection OF risks.
No certifcats issued for less than the
amount applied for, hence our ability to
maintain such low death rate.
This is record that is unhesita tingly
presented for the careful consideration Of
the business and professional men Of this
city.
At your demise, II you are carrying So
600 certificate with the Maccabees, upon
satisfactory proofs Of death, they will pay
to your beneficiaries $4,000, whether un-
der gold standard, or free and unlimited
coinage OF silver at ratio Of 16 II.
Try II and your beneficiaries will ever
revere your name.
