munyOn Tells What Not To Do.
Take No Medicine Unless
You Are Sick.

IS springtime be the signal for deluge
of physic, and the golden harvest be
associated with the excessive drinking
of rum and whiskey disguised as Bit
tcrs? Medicine should only be given
to the sick, and should always be ad-
ministered with gentleness and dis
erection. Medicine should be to Nature
only a delicate rcbuke of error and a
kind encouragement of the physical
forces for good. The hard work of re-
covery is done by Nature itself. The
human body is more delicate than the
finest mechanism, more sensitive than
the tenderest plant. To shatter the
liver with mercury, to madden the
nerves with morphine and chloral, and
to fay and burn the stomach with
every poison black listed with skull and
cross bones, is torture more demonic
than the Inquisition.
This is q world of compensations.
For every valley there is correspond
ing mountain, for every darkness there
is corresponding light, and for every
disease there is corresponding cure.
Not all such cures have yet been found,
but Munyon has discovered fifty-seven
of them. Each. one of Munyon's cures

O'Clock.
1.-THE short daylight and the dificul-
ty Of packing provisions did not allow
stops for midday meals. A meal at
Dalton's post, which we reached in six
days from Hootchy-Eye and composed
of canned corn beef and bread, baked
by Dalton, and can of cold tomatoes,
had magic effect on our physical
strength, comfort and satisfaction.
Our horses were left there. Two had
died on the way.
Thirty miles from the post was an
other base of Dalton supplies in two
tents. We should have reached this
place, called the Cache, on the second
day. We walked from 7:30 a. m until
after Z p. M, three hours past daylight,
without reaching timber shelter or
without reaching Cache. We then lost
the trail, Dalton still being behind at
the post. A night spent far within the
Arctic regions could not have been
more desolately exposed, though, Of
course, it could have been colder. The
Thermometer was about 20 degrees be-
low zero, and the wind made it worse
Four Of the party partially froze their
feet during the night.
m orpiror yx,a found ,,,IYcI, fo our
disgust, that we had been only three
quarters of a mile from the Cache. Next
day, by moonlight, very early, we were

Of $500 feet; the second is 900 feet low

the course largely over smooth ice. I
got some very bad falls. After cross
ing this summit the worst of cur trOu-
bles were over and we were within 40
miles of Chilkat.
II had in forty days travelled on an
icy river for 200 miles and by land for
over 300 miles, pushing on, in very
poor condition, portion of the time in
intense pain. Part of the time l did
not in the least care whether I lived or
died. Had I been assured any morning
of the trip that I would be dead before
night I would with none the less appe-
tite have eaten my full share of bacon
and beans and drunk my coffee in con-
tentment.

rode in an Indian sleigh on the ice of

REGINALD SAW THE POINT
And Illustrated With am Appropriate
Bible Quotation.

Cleveland Leader.
The teacher of a class in one Of the
largest Sunday schools of Cleveland
took occasion, after the regular lesson
had been disposed of, recently, to de-
liver a little discourse upon cruelty to
animals. She told the boys that it was
wicked to throw stones at stray dogs,
and she told the girls that they might
do much to prevent the killing of sweet
little song birds by refusing, in the flu
ture, to wear feathers in their hats.
Then she related a pitiful story about a
cat that had been tortured by some
naughty boys.
''They placed poor Tabby's tail upon
block of wood" the fair young teach
er explained. land then while two of
the wicked boys held her head and two
more held her tail, a fifth one took a
Ratchet and what do you suppose he
did? With one swift blow he cut the
cats tail off right near the middle
Just think how the poor animal must
have suffered? If one of you boys were
to have finger cut off, it wouldn't hurt
you a bit worse than it hurt the cat to
have it's tail cut off.
"Of course, | don't suppose the boys
realized what they were doing, or they
wouldn't have tortured the cat in that
way. But that is just the trouble. Too
many of us do things that are calcu-
lated to give pain to others without
thinking. If we would always stop and
say to ourselves, How would l feel il
some one were to treat me as I am
about to treat this or that one?' there
would be much less pain in the world
than there is.
Now, who of you can think of some
thing the Bible says that is particular
ly applicable to this case Come, let
us see which member of the class can
answer first"
Up went little Reginald BIS hand
and when directed by the teacher to tell
the rest what is was, he said:
What God hath Joined together let
no man put asunder"

and skin diseases are frequently not skin
diseases at all All the lotions and bleaches
and creams and powders in the world won't
make good complexion if the digestion is
wrong. If the stomach is sour, and the
liver torpid, and the bowels constipated,
the skin will show it. No use trying to
treat the skin for such a condition. The
only way to relieve it is to cleanse the sys-
tenn and purify the blood AS long as the
heart is pumping impurities to every part
OF the body, just so long these impurities
will show through the skin.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is good for the complexion because it
makes the whole body healthy-because it
clears and puriies the blood, makes the
digestion strong and clears out impurities
of all kinds. By increasing the ability to
assifnilate nutritious food, and by the in
fusion of its own ingredients, it enriches
the blood and SO makes solid, healthy flesh.
It fills out the hollows, rubs out wrink-
les and substitutes for sallowness O rosy,
healthy glow. There is no mystery about
1t. 1t isn't miracle. 1t is merely the re-
suit of a combination of rational, natural
common sense with expert medical knowl-
edge. 1t cures diseases of the lungs, liver,
stomach, bowels, skin and scalp, simply
because all these diseases spring from the
same cause - disordered digestion and
consequent impure blood. Don't let preiu-
dice and scepticisrn cheat you out of your
health. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery will positively cure you, if suffering
from diseases named above.

kply; would be q continuous invitation
to the railroads to default.
The hearing closed with somewhat
sensational exchange between Mr..
Cowen and Mr.. Morrissey. Mr.. Cowen,
in closing, Indignantly repudiated the
idea that Mr.. Gompers or Mr.. MOTIFS
sey in any way represented the en-
ployes of the Baltimore & Ohio rail-
road. These employees, he declared,
had not been consulted, and he resent
ed the quiet assumption OF the labor
leaders that they represented the WORK
ers on his road. He warned the COM
mission against the humanitarian
view urged by these gentlemen. the
perils of the new appliances, he said,
had not been established. Statistics on
his road showed they killed more but
MANNED less than the old system. In
a business matter, he said, with some
temper, that it was always dangerous
to yield to alleged humanitarian con-
siderations. He used no yelled irony
in his references to Mr.. Morrissey's as
sumption Of authority. The latter
jumped to his feet when Mr. Cowen sat
down. He had tried, he said, to main
tain a dignifed attitude throughout
the session. He did not desire to give
offense, and he had maintained silence
while the statements of the represent
atives of the railroads were being
made but he said he deemed it his
duty to reply to the insinuation OF Mr..
Cowen, that he did not represent the
railway trainmen
He refused to be discredited, and he
denied that he had assumed authority
not veste in him Eighty-five per cent
Of the employees of the Baltimore &
Ohio. he said, were members of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, and
at the Toronto convention last year he
had unanimously been empowered to
state the position of its members to the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Every division of the Baltimore & Ohio
had been represented at the convention.
Upon that authority, he said, he denied
Mr.. Governs statement.
81 said the questions of years ex-
tension had never been presented to the
employees of the Baltimore & Ohio"
interrupted Mr.. Cowen, land 1 repeat
it,
"The Toronto convention" retorted
Mr. Morrissey, voted against any ex-
tension"
He then explained further that he
had appealed to the convention not to
tie his hands, but to leave him free to
use his judgment, and that that discre-
ton had been accorded him.
Soon afterward the hearing adjourn
ed until tomorrow.

treasury, amounts to st009, 226 466, a de
crease since October of s11, 39S Us. This
decrease is accounted for by an increase
in the cash due to the deposit of an install
ment of the proceeds of the sale of the

railroad. But for this action the cash in
the treasury would have been S171, $50 less
