Women are not the only ones who are
sensitive about their ages. man doesn t
like to be told that he is getting old.
Health keeps man young. 1t doesn t
make any difference if he has lived eighty
years. If they have been healthy years, he
will be hale and hearty and won't look
within twenty years as old as he is. Good
digestion and rich, red blood make people
look youthful. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal Discovery makes rich, red blood. 1t
makes health in the right way. 1t works
according to the right theory, and in 80
years OF practice, it has proved that the
theory is absolutely correct. 1t begins at
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS by putting the stom-
ach, liver and bowels into perfect order,
but it begins Its good work on the blood
before it finishes with the digestive system
1t searches out disease germs wherever they
may be and forces them out of the body
All druggists keep the discovery"

KITCHEN RUN BY CITY.
At Grenoble, France, an Association Serves
Good Food at Cost.

Housewives who think the co-opera-
tive kitchen is so far i'll the future that
it would be absurd to look forward to
it for relief from daily drudgery will be
interested to hear that kitchen with
the same end in view as the cooperative
has been in successful operation for
nearly 90 years. The Association Ali
mentaire of Grenoble, France, is a pure
ly municipal affair. The city owns it
and supplies meals at cost in its own
restaurant or delivers them at private
homes.
Everything at the Association Ali
mentaire is as good as money can buy.
The cooks are as clever as any i'll France,
which is saying Il great deal. The pro-
visions are bought III the hest markets
and are carefully selected. The service
is excellent. The dining rooms are Of
several grades, according to the furnish
ings and the attendance, 50 that all
tastes may be accommodated. One may
dine there for cents ON bread and
soup and be satisfied or one may pay 12
cents and have full course dinner. In
the best rooms. which are marble fiodred
and decorated with much elegance, there
are walters who look for tips as natu-
rally as though they were in the SWEETEST
of Partisan cafes
Pure wines, which have been proper
1y aged, are served at about cents q
liter
There is no financial profit to the city
in running this huge restaurant, which
serves some $4,000 meals day. The
charges are based on the cost of the
materials used, the employment of help
and the amount spent i'll keeping the
utensils, machinery and building in re-
pair. New York Press

OLD TIME DOCTORS.
The Students Helped Their Teachers In
Practical Work.

IFacticai W oThs
During the last century in America
the medical education Of d young stu
dent was generally what he picked up
by serving as an apprentice to some
noted practitioner, which combined the
duties of q student with many mental
affairs.
He ground the powders, mixed the
pills, rode with the doctor on his rounds,
held the basin when the patient was
bled, helped to adjust the plastera, sew
the wounds and run with Walls Of modi-
cine from one end Of town to the other
1t was white day when such young
man enjoyed the rare good fortune of
dissecting q half putrid ann. So great
indeed was the difficulty of obtaining
anatomical subjects that the medical
school of Harvard college made a single
body do duty for whole year.
Under such circumstances the doc
tors knowledge was practical, and de-
rived from personal experience rather
than from books. The advantages of
study were sparingly enjoyed. Few
physicians boosted of library of 30
volumes.
His apprenticeship ended, the student
returned to his native town to assume
the practice of medicine. At that period,
with the exception of the minister and
the judge, the doctor was the most i'm
portant parsonage in his community
His genial face, his engaging manners,
the sincerity with which he inquired
after the carpenters daughter and the
interest which he took i'll the family of
the poorest labOrcr made him the fa-
vorite for miles around He knew the
names and personal history of the occu-
pants Of every house he passed. Ihc
farmers lads pulled of their hats to

he passed. Sunshine and rain, daylight
and darkness, were alike to him. lie

The drugs were slowed away on the
shelves OF the village store, among
heaps of shoes, Rohan hats, packages Of
seeds and flitches of bacon.
The physician was compelled to COM
pound his own drugs, make his own
tinctures and put up his own prescrip-
tions His saddlebag was the only drug
store within 40 miles. Each spring the
blood must be purified, the kidneys ex-
cited and the damsel who tainted pro-
fusely bled. Large doses of SIENNA and
mamma and rhubarb and molasses were
taken daily. 1t was safe to say that
more medicine was taken every year by
the well than is now taken by the sick
in the same time.
Water was denied the patient tor

given small quantity Of clam juice.

That Banshee's Wall,

There is considerable discussion in
the English papers about the wall Of
the banshee which was said to have
been heard in East Kerry before the ia
tai bog moved. A correspondent writes
that the late Archdeacon Whately, the
celebrated archbishop's son, told him of
a certain instance of the banshee's cry.
The archdeacon said that he distinctly
heard the wall while in an Irish coun-
try parish administering the holy COM
munion to dying man.

Bro. HOFFMAN and secret sooieti,

Bro. Hoffman and Secret Societies
From the Ell Paso Tribune.
Rrv. A. Hoffman says secret so
cieties are drawbacks to religion, ant
has cautioned his hearers against them
He also warns his members against
Christian science and Divine healers,
aud all suca modern fads. Why the
reverend gentleman should class secret
societies along with religious fads, the
Tribune is at a loss to know. There Is
no similarity Of the twain, and the re-
suits are not the same. There has
been religious fanaticism since the
world began. The Mosaic dispensa-
ton had their sorcerers and witches,
and there was the d~iylnations OF the
Christian era. And whether Christian
science and Divine healing are but a
continuation Of those sorceries begun
60 early or not. the Tribune will no,
venture an opirion.
