It's wonderful how much health has
to do with married happiness. Sick
ness affects the temper. You can't be
nor make others happy if you are all
ing. When you find yourself irritable,
easily worried, beginning to "run-
down" it's because your blood is getting
poor. You need richer blood and more
of it. Your blood-making organs need
to be vitalalized by DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t imparts new
power to produce an abundance OF
healthy, red corpuscles. aud gives you
a fresh supply of pure, rich blood. It's
a blood-creator; it is for everyone
whose blood is impure or in a
poor, rundown" condition. 1t
prevents the germs of disease from
getting a hold on your system. Even
after disease is settled on you, it is dri-
ven out by the blood-creating proper
ties of the discovery" It is perfect
cure for general and nervous debility,
catarrh. malaria, eczema, erysi-.
pelas, scrofula, and every form OF
blood-disease. 1t isn't called q con-
sumption-cure, but even consumption,
which has its roots in the blood-is
driven out by the Golden Medical
Discovery if taken in time. The
discovery is the prescription of one
of the most eminet physicians and me-
dical writer's in this country.

Governor Mount has queer ideas.

Governor Mount has queer ideas.
Recently, in reply to q delegation
which was urging the appointment OF
a certain man to a place, the governor
insisted that he would not appoint any
man to the place unless he knew some
thing about the duties thereof. Suppose,
he said, he had to appoint an inspector
of farms. What would farmers think
of him if he appointed, not a farmer,
but q man who had been going over
the state organizing farmers clubs?
He would try, he said, to find a man
who knew something about the work
he would have to do. If the governor
keeps on this way he will estabIish the
strange doctrine that people appointed
to public place must be fitted for it
