1t is commonly said that people die of
this or that particular disease. The truth
is they die of constitutional weakness.
If more people realized this they would
understand why the great Colder Medi-
cal Discovery" invented by DR.. r. v.
Pierce of Buffalo, N. ", cures so many
cases of lingering coughs, throat, bronchial,
and kindred affections of the air passages.
1t gives thorough abundant constitutional
vitality. 1t gives the digestive and blood
making organs, where consumption usually
begins, power TO do their work completely
SO that no poisonous dregs can get into the
circulation to fasten on the lungs and vital
tissues.

He (pugin) visited SAINT Andrea
della Fratte, the scene Of the miracu-
lous conversion Of Able Ratisbonne, the
Jew. Able Rahsbonne entered the
church Jew and came out Christian,
having seen there, he stated. vision Of
our Lady. The story, Pugin said after
seeing the church, is demonstrably
false. The man could not have said
prayer in such a hideous church. Our
Lady could not have chosen such
church for vision. The man could
have had no piety in him to have staid
ia such a church at all
The friend to whom his remarks
were addressed replied, AS heard the
story, Ratisbonne was not at the mo-
ment praying, but thinking Of the I'M
oouthness Of the architecture of the
place. Pugin' whole face changed. Is
that so? Then he was a man Of God. He
knew what true Christianity was,
though he was a Jew. l honor him.

~ 9UAWA A.HAAcDAhAf
A reporter went into the New York
postoffice the other day with bundle
Of rnisdirected stamped envelopes in his
pocket to see if Uncle Sam would not
redeem them for cash. He found a
window IN a room on the second floor,
where this Is the special business at

looked over the lot Of envelopes handed
back FIVE, with the cash for the others,
and said;
"You will have to take a trip to Falls
City, Neb.; Columbus, Ca; Newark,
N. j., and Brooklyn to get those four
redeemed, and here is one we won't re-
deem at all. You sea. 1t is this way: It
does not matter where an envelope il
addressed to; the point is where it
comes from--what postofiice issued it.
"A postofIice can only redeem envelopes
which 1t has issued itself. If an en-
yelope shows on the face Of it that some
other Office issued it, can't give you
cash for 1t.
Now look at this one. Here in the
corner is "a note, After ten days return

The junk dealer looked startled, for
the question betokened an intimate
knowledge of the jargon Of his kind.
Why, yes, / guess SO. he responded
when he could get his breath What
the buyer meant was an ldsewing ma
chino which could be turned in to the
sewing machine company as part pay
ment ON a new machine. The company
allows So on an old machine, and some
times the agent or oanyasser allows IS
more out Of his commission on the sale.
The public eaagines that in some
way these old machines are valuable to
the company, but, ia truth, they are Of
use only as arguments in forcing sale.
In the standard makes Of machines there
lie supposed to be Absolutely no cut III
prices, and the only way that a seeming
reduction can be made is by taking in
an old machine and allowing for it.
The company does this not for the sake
Of getting the machine, but for the sake
OF making a trade. Once the old timer
is in their possession it is broken up and
sold to junk dealer.
The companies know, Of course, that
large number Of the families who
turn in old machines said to have been
bought by them before the flood really
come from the secondhand stores and
cost only 81. At this rate She buyer gets
an allowance Of $40, which, deducting
tbs 81, leaves net So If there does hap
pen to be an old one III the possession Of
the family, the whole $40 is realized.
