How to Judge Beef.

'If people will remember one sim
pie rule they can always purchase the
best meat in the market" said an old
butcher to Mail and Express reporter
to-day. "Steer beef always retains
its color, and the tallow is white no
matter how long the carcass has been
in cold storage. On the other hand,
COW beef tAllow is OF yellowish hue.
Take that side of the beef over there,
see how white the tallow is. Well,
that's steer beef. Here is a quarter
OF COW beef. Note the difference in
the color of the tallow?
"rhe meat OF steer beef always re.
tsins its bright red color. Notso with
COW or bull beef. BUTT is possible to
spoil the best of steer beef in the kill
ing. After a steer has been strung
up and hit in the head, the throat
should be cut Immediately. If the
cutting is delayed the blood will have
coagulated in the veins and the flesh
will turn black. New York Mail and

ALCOHOL CURES No ILLS.

DR.. II. N. Buckle, medical superintendent

the use OF alcohol We have needed and used
less opium and chloral, and as we have dis

A SCHOOL OF MANNERS.

In Russia there is a school where
girls of sixteen are taught to meet the
requirements of the Russian courts.
1t is the desire of these girls, and it
is considered great honor, to become
waiting maids to the Empress. These
girls dress very beautifully and live in
state that they may become accus-
toned to court manners and dress.
The Czar supports these schools, but
the Empress selects her maid of honor
herself. Some who take the training
never serve as maids of honor. The

PARASITIC LIFE IN ALCOHOL.

Professor Coles states that he has found
after careful experiment that all forms OF
alcohol con ain parasitic life called bacalus
potumanIe. II follows, therefore, that
every kind Of drink, whether wine, brandy
or beer, into which alcohol enters, is infest-
ed with this curious germ life. These mi.
mute forms have been examined through a
powerful microscope and their development
carefully watched. They have been found
to be especially plentiful in strong drink
which contains a large percentage OF alco
hol Any one who drinks is, Of course
forced to introduce these dangerous forms
into the system in large numbers.

A candid saloon keeper at Des Moines,
Iowa, says tho saloon is a necessity, and

THE JOLLY BoY.
Here stands n boy,
Quite full OF JOY,
But rather fond OF drinking
SO lend your ears,
My pretty dears,
And do n little thinking.
What kind Of drink,
Pray. do you think,
Do I delight TO swallow?
Not beer nor gin,
They lead to sini
My drink will beat them hollow
I'll quench my thirst
With wnter first,
II never leads to folly.
It's mild and sweet
And such a treat
1t makes me fat and jolly.

wel-known cycling authority recently
solved the problem, "What to drink when
cycling, by giving his personal testimony in
favor OF drinking nothing. The cyelist may,
he said, indulge in oatmeal water, cold tea
and other thirst-quenchers; but the penalty
for this want of early self-restraint is the
incapability OF riding without drink OF somo
sort or other ever after. 'Do not drink
while riding, in spite OF the thirst" he
added, "aud the latter will very soon dis
appear" 1t is most gratifying to find cycling

THIRTY YEARS AN INVALID.
BRoNcu1AL CATARRH, STOMACH AND
LIVER TROuBLE.

Mrs. Stafford, of Canton, New York,
wife of George saffOrd, the Well
known Apostle OF Fish Protoc-
tion, Cured by DIR. williams
Pink Pills for Pale People.
From he Pldindedler, Canton NJ T.
There Is no man botter known in St
Lawrence County, New York, than Mr..
George Stafford, OF Canton, from the interest
he has taken in nsh culture and preserva'
tion, and from his lately issued work en-
titled, "Man, Present and Future" which
has attracted such wide attention.
But It is not OF him, but Mrs. Stafford that
this article is written, AMI her sudden re-
covory to a condition OF excellent health
after thirty years OF suffering with bronchial
catarrh and liver complaint.
During all those long dreary years Mrs.
Stafford was n hopeless invalid, aud never
expected to enjoy any health, as physicians
and remedies had proved alike, vain, and 1t
was not until 1895 when, by the Joint recon-
mendation OF Mrs. William Orr, OF Malone,
N. Y, and Mrs. James Bird, OF Canton, the
lady began to take DR.. Williams Pink pills
for Pale People.
We print Mr.. Safford's affidavit, which de-
tails In full all the circumstances OF Mrs.
Salord's recovery;
ST.. LAWRENCE COUNTY, SIS.
George Stafford being duly sworn says;
"For upward OF thirty years prior to 1895
my wife had been ailing. While not con-
fined to her bed her health was very poor.
She had but little appetite, the circulation
OF her blood was very poor, and she had the
other symptoms attendant upon disordered
condition Of tho liver, but in her case this
liver difficulty was complicated with catarrh
OF the bronchial tubes. She used various
remedies without any permanent relief. In
the fall OF 1895 she was recommended to
take DIR. Williams Pink Pills by Mrs. William
Orr, OF Malone, New York, and Mrs. James
Bird, of Canton. Believing that a remedy
recommended so highly must possess some
| merit, she commenced the use OF the Pink
| Pills, aud experienced immediate relief. 1
| wish to state hero that no other remedy used
| by her showed as quick results, or produced
any permanent change In her condition. The
| Pink Pills seemed to I'LL the long felt want.
| Whenever the old feelings begin to be ex-
| perienced my wife takes dose OF the Pink
| Pills and all is well again. From what l
| have seen them accomplish for her, have
become firm believer In the efficacy OF the
| pills, and while my health has never re-
| quired me to use them, l feel that n supply
| OF the pills is necessity in the household.
| have nothing but praise for DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, and believing that suffering
humanity ought to know what they will do
and actuated by no other motive, l have
made this statement.
