The old man who looks out at
the world with clear and healthy
eyes cannot help feeling great
gratifica tion at the thought that
his children have inherited from
him no weakness nor tendency to
disease. The healthy old man is
the man who has throughout his
life kept his digestion good and
his blood pure. Not one in a
thousand does do it. Germs go
through the healthy body without
effect. Let them once find lodg-
ment Or let them find a weak
spot, they will develop by the
million and the blood will be full
of them. Instead of giving
strength to the tissues, it will
force upon them innutritious mat
ter, and the man will lose flesh
and the more susceptible he is to
disease. DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is the only
medicine that absolutely and in
fallibly cures all blood diseases,
and almost all diseases are blood
diseases. 1t isn't a medicine fo1
some one particular so-called dis
ease. It is a medicine for the
whole body. 1t forces out all the
germs of disease, and replaces
impurities with rich, red blood.

4 Turkey for a s.soast''-:How Gov. Mer--
ram eta1iaJeds on one OF HIS Num- erous
Critics.
lt~was just about seven years ago
that a young man from the southern
part of the state came to ST. Paul to
accept position with local. business
house, and to lay the foundation for a
career that has not been wholly unsuc-
cessful. He had been in the newspa-
per business, and got into askind of in
voluntary partnership with the sheriff,
leaving that official in charge of the
Office and himself going out TO make a
new start in the world The Young
man had been conducting a sizzling
hot Democratic paper, which may in
some measure have accounted for the
non-success of the enterprise. At any
rate he had made made most gallant
and earnest fight for Judge Thomas
Wilson, who had the honor of coming
within about 1000 votes of defeating
w. r. Merriam. /. ....... .....=
The young man had an incumbrance
in the shape of a family, and his fail
ure in business had been so complete
that he was not able to bring his fam
lily with him to the city, but spent his
Sundays with them, going out satur-
day evening and returning Monday
morning. .t
His employment took him very often
to Gov. Merriam's Office, and he al
ways felt more or less embarrassed on
these occasions, for he had roasted the
governor most numerically during the
campaign, and he was sure the govern
or's suavity Of manner was but super
fetal, and that at heart the governor
must cherish for him an unmeasured
hatred. But the governor was always
most cordial and pleasant with him,
and one day when he called the great
banker and politician was even more
than usually soc1able. It was just be-
fore Thanksgiving day, and, according
to his usual custom, the governor was
distributing turkeys to all his employ
es, and to good many who were not
his employees. 49,

MILLIONS FOR FARMERS.

Estimates on Their Enormous Share
in the New Era of Prosperity.
New York, Aug. 16.-Estimates of
Wall street men bring the total amount
to be gained by western farmers this
year up to $700,0OO,000 Another esti-
mate, prepared under the direction of
Col. James II. Brigham, acting secre-
tary of agriculture, for the World, is
based on the crops of 1896. The impress
sion now is that the yields for this year
will not differ widely from those of last
year. In some instances the figures
may be slightly in excess and other
products may note slight decrease.
Eight products chosen as illustrating
the vast financial benefits accruing to
the farmers of the United States from
the recent rapid rise in prices are cattle,
wheat, corn, potatoes, cotton, sheep,
swine and wool. Careful comparison
has been made of the prices now pre-
vailing with those which obtained dur
ing the whole of last year. The results
show an inflow of $410,oOo,O00 to the
pockets Of the farmers. To this large
sum, which is already in sight, must
be added an estimate OF 100000, 900 for
the increased profits that have been
realized on crops of oats, barley, rye,
hay, fax, hops and other miscellaneous
but valuable products of the farm.

The most serious loss was at Copen-

Nellis' sawmill, valued at $4,000, was
destroyed. "A cyclone passed over the
eastern end of Fulton county, three
farnhouses and many barns and OUT
buildings being completely demolished.
Many people sought refuge in their cell
lars. Mrs. Robson and son, who lived
near Broad Albin, ran from the house
when they saw the storm approaching
and threw themselves on the ground
behind the barn. The structure was
blown down and both were seriously
injured.

Havana, via Key West, Aug. 16.-A
cable dispatch from Madrid to the Ha-
vana newspapers says that new cabi-
net has been formed in Spain. The dis
patch says that the new ministry has
not yet taken the oath, but that with
perhaps some slight modification it has
met with the approval of the queen.
All the principal elements of the two
monarchialparties arerepresented. The
news has created great sensation in
Havana, as the presidency of Gen. Mar
tinez Campos and the presence of Sa-
gasta, Maura and Silvela in the govern
ment seems to indicate great change
in the colonial policy of Spain. The
Cubans are hopeful that the new gov
eminent will consider how useless it is
for Spain to continue it's sacrifice of
men and money to maintain an endless
war in the island. If any change is
made in the cabinet it will still remain
on the same basis, a Representative min
istry Of all the monarchists including

Highwnymen In Yellowstone Park

Yellowstone Lake, Wyo., Aug. 1e.-
Two masked highwaymen held up and
robbed n number Of Yellowstone Ma
tional Park transportation coaches in
the park Saturday morning, relieving
the tourists Of about $500. The fugi-
tives have not been apprehended. The
coaches were robbed while en- route
from Canyon hotel to Norris Geyser
basin and had covered about three miles
of their journey, AT the point where
the hold-up took place was the crest Of
= high hill where the freight road
branches off from the government road
ut a sudden turn. Each coach was
halted and robbed as it drove up. Col.
Young has an excellent description of
the men and 1t will be almost impossible
for the highwaymen to leave the park,
as soldiers are guarding every possible
outlet. None of the passengers in the
coaches were hurt
