Make the Most OF Yourself

1t is the duty OF every man to
make the most OF himself. What
ever his capacities may be, he is
sure to find some place where he
can be useful to himself and to
others. But he cannot reach his
highest usefulness without good
health and he cannot have good
health without pure blood. The
blood circulates to every organ
and tissue and when it is pure,
rich and healthy it carries health
to the entire system, bat if it is
impure it scatterS disease where
ever it flows. Hoou's Sasapariia
is the one true blood purifier. 1t
cures salt rheum, scrofula, ca
tarrh, dyspepsia and rhematism
because these diseases have their
origin in the blood.

Work Without Guards Dav

At present there are about thirty short term prisoners, all having les than two years to serve Cfew iu the pen have more because of the pardon power), whs are csmped from four to six miles up the river from Yums. These men are alone, there being DO one but convicts in the camp, and, strange 10 say, not an escape has been recorded. These men are engaged in cutting wood, and by so doing they supply the Sl250 worth a day peoss- sary to supply the prison, and at the ssme time hundreds of cords are piled up as @ reserve. Why do the men stay without guard? Simply be- cause each guard the other. Some have only few days to serve. All are allowed a rebate for the work they do. For each two cords of weod chopped the individual who performs the work is related one day on his term of service. To the event that one escapes all rebates are declared ofr. Thus each man becomes his brothers keeper, and is the gainer by keeping hiu in camp.
 Gusrde a. the prison are armed with field glasses, wi;h which they can view the camp, and the nature of the country makes escape difficult. A team is used by the convicts 10 haul wood 10 8 barge, and thus it is foated down to the prison. It is not likely any ether prison in the world can let the convicts run at laree.-Gazette.

How Two Ariz0nan's Were
 Taken In.

A new bunco game hss come to town. It is nystiiying a; first. but very simple-siter i, is played.
 It was recently worked by some buncoists of South Spring street CD two Arizenan's But the Arizonans knew there was carss for every effect, and soon unveiled it.
 Two of the bunc,iis walked the Arizonsns to 6 certain district in tine northern part of the city nSar Cape Horn."
 As they nearsd one of the fly blown saloons, man came out, staggering, but net dangerously, drunk.
 "I'll bet the whiskey and s20 that he fa.l, before he gets to the second corner" said one of the buncoists.
 The Arizonsps were good judges of men in such condition, and knew about how mnch a man should be able to navigate with. As the man did not seem tobs heavily loaded, they thought it good bst and put up the S20.
 Immediately the man fell. He had not looked back, and the bunco men had not even ceughed. The Arizona men knew that there must have been s signal, but they could not see through it. Finally, they recollected that ss the money Was put up, enc of the men seemed 10 wave his hand 1; then a man across the street took of his hat, and the drunken man i'm mediately fell down.
 This 60 staggered the Arizonans that they put their wits to work and soon figured it cut, but not until after the buncSists with the S20 had dis Angeles Express.

Not in the Play.
[Chicago Times-Herald l

The third act of Rhea's play. "Jose- phine, Empress of the French" closes with climax based upon the sex of a newborn herr to Napoleon. If the expec- ted arrival bea girl Josephine will have reason to hope for a restoration of Ma poleon's favor; fit be boy it means a new Emperor for the French and the end of Josephine's hopes. The audience is told by the dialogue that when the event occures It will be heralded by the booming of cannon-one shot if the heir be a girl and twenty-one if it be a boy.
 Suddenly, in the midst of the conver- sation, the activity of the play is inter- rupted by cannon shot. After a mo- ment of anxious silence Josephine ex- claims: "It is 8 girl Thank God!" Then follows second shot, as the can- non continues with salute of twenty one guns. At the second report Jose phine,s attendants, in consternation, exclaim: "A boyW At the third shot 8 small boy in the gallery, on the open ing night, when the play was produced in Lancaster, Pa., cried out: "Triplets, by thunder"
 And the weeping Josephine ended that fearful third act by peal of merry laughter which was not in the bills and was not of the made border sort.
