when the languid, exhausted feel

The old man who looks out
at the world with clear and
healthy eyes cannot help feel
ing great qualification at the
thought that his children have
inherited from him no weak
ness nor tendency to disease.
The healthy old man is the
man who has throughout his
life kept his digestion good
and his blood pure. Not one
in a thousand does do it
Germs go through the healthy
body without effect. Let them
once find lodgment or let them
find a weak spot, they will de-
velop by the million and the
blood will be full of them.
Instead of giving strength to
the tissues, it will force upon
them t1tlwholeeotue and iun,t.

An Unlucky Horse Shoe.

well known business man of this
city has lost all faith of good luck in
finding horseshoes. He was taking a
spin on one of the back streets yester-
day and as he rode along he noticed a
horseshoe lying in the dust. Natural
1y, like the most of us who believe in
the old saying, "horseshoes bring good
luck, he stopped his wheel, dismount-
ed. picked up the horseshoe and again
went his way. He had not ridden far,
however, when he took a most fright
ful header" a cloud of dust. an
overturned wheel and a sprawling man
formed the picture. Now he's sorry, he
SAYS, not because he took a tumble but
because he has had his confidence in
truth of the old saying, shaken But
the horseshoe still bangles from the
saddle of his wheel.

A Unique Wheel.

The Journal reporter was standing
upon the WaterVille bridge, yesterday
afternoon, when he saw a tiny boy with
a more tiny wheel riding toward him
from the WinsloW side. As the boy
came nearer and the vehicle could be
better seen il proved to be a once three
wheeled velocipede made over into a
bicycle. The little fellow was pushing
his way along at good rate of speed
and apparently took as much enjoy
ment from his wheel as some more
fortunate person does from a $50 Vic
tor. lie rode very gracefully consider
ing the fact that he had no pneumatic
tires nor suitable handle-bar and as he
disappeared from sight on the other
end IF the bridge. one counldn't help
thinking that the little boy was doing
his best under the circumstances.
