The murderer who. at dead Of night,
egeeps, stealtliily out to bury the dead and
n,auy!cd body Of his victim inspires men
with horror and dread. There is a murderer
abroad who yearly Stays one sixth Of all the
human race who go down to untimely deaths.
THIS dread monster is called consumption.
The approach Of consumption is slow and
in;idons First there is n slight disorder
of the digestion. The appetite is poor and
tic nourshiug properties of the food are not
properly assilniiatcd. The blood becomes
thin and impure. The body begins to starve
Old tissues Of the body are not properly re-
placed by new. The lung tissues are not
properly nouIishcd and are inert and half
dead. III this condition they offer good
soil for the germs of consumption which
invade and attack them.
This operation is promptly reversed by
Dr.. picrcc's Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
invigorates the digestion and appetite and
makes assimilation perfect. 1t builds up
and nurihcs the blood IT makes new mud
healthy tissue to replace the old, inert mat
ter which it causes to be carried off It
drives out all disease germs. Thousands of
cases given up as hopeless have been cured
Miss Laura Picrscl, Of East Bethlehem, WASH

I'd LOVE MAKING.

Statistics are at present being col
lected on almost every conceivable
subject, says the New York Herald.
What do you think of an English
scholar who has actually thought it
worth his while to collect statistics in
regard to the manner in which men
and women make love to each other!
He has spent considerable time over
this delicate work and now at last he
informs the world how the men, as a
r.lle, propose to the women, and how
the women, as a rule, accept the pro-
posals of the men.
According to the English scholar, the
number of young Englishmen who en-
brace their SWeetheartS at the moment
when they are inviting them to be-
come their wives amounts to thirty
six per cent. On the other hand, SIX
ty-seven per cent of the men In love
kiss their sweethearts on the lips at
the critical moment, while four per
cent shower kisses on their halr ana
two per cent content, themselves with
kissing their hands.
At one time it was the fashion for
love intoxicated youths to fall on their
knees when about to make proposals
of marriage, butt this fashion is ev1,
IDENTIFY dying out, for we are assured
that only three per cent OF those IN
love at present fall on one knee, while
only two per tcent venture to sue for
their ladies' favor on both knees. "A
c,,rious reason has been assigned for
the decadence of this chivalrous Gus
tom, which is, that of late years the the
neither garments fof males have been
so constructed that it is rather risky
for any man to flop down suddenly
on his knees in a lady's presence. Gar,
tear and no self-respecting lover de-
sires to have his act of alteration
turned into farce by any such cas-
ualty.
WOMEN USUALLY SPECIFIES.
On the other hand wooers of today
seem to be far more nervous than the
gallant men who wooed and won
century ago. Just fancy, twenty per
cent of the English lovers of today
