when thew see side by side, in the

most conviction; the one made by a
well know resident or those made by
utter strangers from far away places?
There is only one answer to this. Read
this and see. Mr.. johnson says:-"l

this mad career that seems to be in

this mad career that seems to be in
creasing in our Southern land-this
unhallowed thirst for getting money
by short cuts and dishonest practices
this. drinking and gambling that
leads to suicide or the jail-this inf
deity to their marriage vows that de-
stroys the happiness Of the family.
But this will do for this time. It
is not a good day for me no how. It
is not Friday, but it is one of these
hard, unlucky days that brings trou-
bic in various forms. The old COW
got out last night and went ~foraging
in the suburbs and eat up a whole
cotton patch, and I'm expecting the
darkey every minute to come for his
damages. But that's nothing. A
little girl was rolling our little Caro-.
line through the long hall on a tricy-
Gle. The child is only two and a half
years old, and is my comfort, a little
blue-eyed beauty that we borrow
almost every day from her mother
and I wouldn't take a million dollars
for her love. But, somehow, the
nurse cut the wheels around too sud-
denly and threw Caroline violently
forward on to the iron shaft, and the
bolt on the top Of it mashed out two
upper teeth and one lower one, and
bent the others in and cut her chin
badly and bruised her little lips to a
jelly, and when I took her up and saw
it all it made me heart sick. WANTED
to weep and cry aloud for grief. For
an hour or two / was nearly heart
broken, for | can't bear to see such a
helpless child suffer such agony. Her
little mouth was all broken up and
deformed. But the good Lord tenn
pers such things to little children, and
now the dear little girl is getting along
nicely and sings a lisping song to her
dolly. The good book tells about a
place where there will be no more pain
or sorrow. Well, I want to go to that
place as soon as the Lord Wills it; and
I want all my folks, to go with me, and
everybody else's folks, too.

A Boys WOndrOus Travels.

Travelling from Finland to Alaska
without speaking a word that anyone
understood, without asingle travelling
companion or without meeting a per-
son who knew him, from one end of
the journey to the other, is no small
undertaking, but it has just been com
pleted by an eight-year-old boy.
Magnus Nessier left a pleasant home
in far-away Finland on June 3 to join
his father and mother, who are work
ing at Douglas City. He made his
long voyage across the great pond in
the steerage Of one of the big ocean
steamers. Here he was not so lonely,
as there we're other Finlanders on the
boat, who talked the language he could
understand. At New York there was
no delay, owing to a carefully written
shipping card which had been sewed
securely on the back of his coat before
he started on the long journey. This
did away with the necessity of talking
as far as his getting through without
delay was concerned. His ticket had
been purchased to cover the entire
distance, and the card directed him to
Circle City Hotel, at Juneau. He
reached Seattle in time to make good
connections with the Alaska boat, and
was forwarded to Douglas by friends.
His father and mother have not seen
him since he was a baby, over seven
years ago, when they left Finland to
come to the United States. Magnus
is a wcll-built boy, with hair and eyes
characteristic of his race. He is ex-
c%cptionally bright, and has already
picked up some English. He made
friends with everybody on the steamer
whom he came in contact with, al
though he could only talk to them by
signs.-Scattlc Times.

much of a nuisance in Northern Ari-
IONA that Attorney General Frazier
has been asked if they may not legally
be slaughtered. That vicinity has
been ovcrrun by several large bands,
hundreds in number, unbranded and
unclaimed by any one. They have
rapidly increased in number, and have
become wilder than deer and vicious
as well. The matter has been referred
to the live stock board.

MR. JOSEPH ]. FRETWELL, Auder-

Dear Sir: Through our Mr.. Rutherford
we. are handed your order for twenty
vehicles. We desire to thank you for this
order and to say that wo. will do u part
to try and send you nice goods aud such
as will help to sell themselves.
For the past year the Columbus Doggy
Co. has been CUT Of active business, and i.
great many competitors have given TO the
trade the idea that we either would not.
resume business, or that If we did, We
would not make the same high grade
vehicles which we have been building for
the past fifteen years
We want to say that we expect to be in
the trade and to get our share Of II, and
besides that we expect to build the same
high grade vehicles that we ALWAYS have
and improve wherever practical. We can.
not afford to do anything else.
A great many concerns, and some OF
them from this city, have been selling
goods to dealers who have given their
customers the idea that they were buying
a genuine Columbus Buggy Co.'S buggy
not doing their customers justics In adyis.
ing them that there is a vast difference
between a Columbus buggy and a Colum.
bus Carriage Co.'S. buggy.
Dealers we'll know the reputation ofour
goods and their high quality, and try to
give their customer the idea that they are
selling u goods. In this way they I'm:
willingly pay a tribute to our work.
Anything that we can do for You to,
correct this wrong impression or to. assist
you in dispesing of the vehicles, We shall
take pleasure in doing. Again thanking
you for the order given us, we are,
Yours truly.

! DR.. D. G.. Brinton, the archeolo-
gist, said in a recent lecture that in
North and South America no less than
100 or 100 absolutely distinct languages
exist. AS the growth Of language is
very slow he thinks the fact of the
existence of so great a variety of
speech on the western continents
proves that the native red men have
inhabited them for many thousands of
years. Another proof of the antiquity
of the American Indians, according to
DR.. Brinton, is the fact that they rep
resent a distinct human type, and the
formation of such a type requires
thousands of years.

True happiness does not begin for a wo-
manly woman until she becomes a mother.
The fear of death stands between thousands
of women md this supreme JOY. If a wo-
mar will but take the right course, she may
trample this fear out of her heart, and all
cause for it out of her body.
There is practically no danger, and but
little pain, in maternity, for a woma who
is thoroughly healthy and strong in a wo-
manly way. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton makes the delicate organs that bear the
burdens of maternity strong, healthy, virlle
and elastic. It banishes the distress of the
period of impending maternity, and in
sures the newcomers health and an ample
supply of nourishment. An honest drug
gist will not try to get you to take some
substitute for his profits sake: Prospective
mothers who write to DR.. R. V. Pierce will
receive the best advice of an eminent and
skillful specialist, for thirty years chief con-
sulting physician to the great Invalids' Ho-
tel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, n. Y.
