A DisaRreeabIe CONSEQUENCE.

"You say you hate to visit your rich
relatives? Why? Don't they treat you
well?"
ooh, yes, they always do everything
they can to make it pleasant for us,
but my wife never gets through COM
planning until about two weeks after
each visit because we are no. as well
off as they."-Cleveland Leader.

There are various developments of
the stamp craze" The Queen of the
Netherlands, who is only sixteen years
Of age is reported to have said: II
should like very much, my dear min
lister, a new series of stamps which will
show me to my people just as I am
at present" Her own face does not
appear in her large collection. The
engraving on official papers will not be
changed, it is said, until her marriage.
Even royalty has its disappointments,
and, like other stamp collectors, the
queen has u%ngratified desires.

The Connecticut legislator who O
posed that the acts of the general as
sembly should be translated into for
eign languages for the benefit of those
who cannot read English, forgot that
one of the first duties Of every citizen
n every resident of this republic is
to acquire a knowledge of the English
tongue. There could be no objection,
however, to a provision that the en-
actments of the Connecticut legisla-
ture and Of the legislatures of all the
other states should be translated into
good and unmistakable English.

Free Homes in the Northwest.

Those who are paying rent or carrying
mortgages, or young men without pros
poets of getting a home where land is
high in price, should note that the Cana
dian government has a large area of fine
farming land which it gives to persons
over eighteen years of age. Soil produces
all staple crops. Climate similar to this.
Good stock and dairy country. An excur-
sion will leave st. Paul and Minneapolis
Wednesday,. June %. 1897, and monthly
thereafter to examine these lands. Don't
be misled about far away places YOU know
nothing about, but select while the chance
is open a free farm of 100 acres, to which
the railway fare is low and will not eat
up a large share of your capital. For pub
locations and further information address

His father-in-law tried to save him,
but he was not equal to the emergency,

different. The best plan is to let every
person spend his own surplus.

Is necessarily because it's fund of strength
is very low. Toned with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters it soon begins to pay out
vigor in the shape of pure, rich blood, con-

afforded the stomach, the bowels perform
their functions regularly, and the liver
works like clock work. Malaria has no
effect upon a system thus reinforced.

In his first speech at Los Angeles

dent Mckinley's action i'm sending spc-

metalliSm and endeavor to bring about

IL rs not SO doubtful after all that

the sentiment In favor OF bimctallism
grows apace. Mr.. Balfour is an avowed

Uncle. the marquis OF Salisbury, is I'M

he does not aNow them SO emphatically
as does his nephew. The growth of this
sentiment i'm England is regarded as .

though IL is observed that radical advo-
Gates of the free aud unlimited coinage

The American ENJOYS, McSsrs. VOL
colt, Stevenson and Paine. were intro
duccd To Lord Salisbury at the British
foreign Office and were received i'm

tention TO the fact that the French cm-
bassy in London has been instructed
To cooperate with the American spc-
cial ENJOYS in their negotiations with
Lord Salisbury. On this point the Lon
don correspondent of the Tribune SAYS:
lit has been known that NJ. Mcline and

Of bimctallism. IL is, nevertheless, true
tGnt these ENJOYS i'm their negotiations

When MIR. Bryan hears of this he

claring that the Mckinley ndmnistra-
