YELLOW
FEVER
A Few Words Of WARMING

Persons who may be exposed to yell
low fever and others living in districts
liable to be infected by it will find that
timely and intelligent preparation is
the best means Of keeping this dread
full malady out of the family. Sani-
tary regulations in the household are
of the first importance. Clean up all
refuse matter, decaying vegetation or
cesspools. Drain off ponds, pools and
sinks. Burn vegetable offal from the
kitchen. Eat nothing but light, whole
some and easily digested food, avoid
ing green or over ripe fruits and vege-
tables. Lastly, be sure that the blood,
stomach and bowels Of every member
of the family is in healthy condition.
Irregularities in the system, such as
Indigestion, constipation, torpid liver,
invite disease to enter the body, and
in the case of yellow fever, renders
its progress more virulent and deadly.
This condition can be speedily remov-
ed and pure blood, good digestion and
regularity in the bowels re e-es.ablished
by using Prickly Ash Bitters, the
great System Regulator. The fre-
quent use Of this remedy in doses
suited to the age of each person will
maintain perfect health in the family.
Get bottle at once while the fever is
yet afar off, use it faithfully and reg
ularly. Prompt action NOW in put
ting yourself end family in condition
to resist the disease germs may spare
you suffering and sorrow. Prickly

The Better Man.

AS the highway made turn and
ran alongside the river I came upon q
man seated on a rock with his bare
feet dangling in the wate~. He looked
up and nodded as I came to halt and
in reply asked:
Have you been fishing and got
discouraged?'
"No, sab, haiu't bin fshin," he re-
piled.
"Just taking a sun bath, eh?'
"No, sah. hain't taking no sun
bath"
] saw that he was crusty, and so
made ready to ride on, but he stopped
me with:
"I'm jest sittin yere to beat the
ole woman. You'll find her about 40
rods above. You kin tell her that
you've seen me, and that I said
wouldn't give in till this river ran
dry"
Family trouble, is it?" asked
him.
''Sorter that way, sab. We had a
jaw bout who should cut the wood to
git breakfast. She wouldn't t do it and
wouldn't do it. and we are trying to
outsot each other. Jest tell her that
you seen and talked with me, and that
you never see sich determined man
in all your life
promised l would report him as
firm on the frewood question, and 10
minutes later came upon the woman.
She was also seated on rock, and in
addition to dabbling her bare feet in
the water she was throwing sticks at
an old blind goose swimming about.
She called out "Howdy' as came up,
and added:
stranger, mebbc you met up with
critter Of man back thar a bit-a
shiftless, shuckless oritter. with a
hungry look?"
There's a man back there on a
rock who said he was your husband"
"Did he say anything slse?"
"He wanted me to announce that he
was as firm as the rock beneath him,
and that he would outsit you if it took
q month"
"He said that, did he?" she asked
as grim smile played around her
mouth. Stranger, you didn't know
my pop, but he was man who watch
ed fox-hole in the earth fur seven
days and nights and perished right
thar sooner than give up. You didn't
know my nam, either, but she was
woman who got mad at pop and didn't
speak to him fur 'leven years. That's
the stock [ cum frum, and do you
reckon I'll let that critter of Dan
Jeffers outsot me?'
I had no advice to offer, and rode on
over to Sellersville, where I put up
for the night It was noon the next
day when returned, and I saw the
man welding the axe in front of his
cabin, while his wife stood in the
doorway.
"Ana how did it come QUIZ asked
as rode up.
''Say, stranger" he replied, as he
drew nearer to me and spoke in
hoarse whisper, "I stood it till about
an hour ago, and then I got so hungry
and sleepy that I had to give in. If
you meet anybody who axes about
Dan Jeffers, you jest say to EN- that
he is the most determined man you
ever met in all yo bon days!"
"Rut you gave in," protested.
Eyes, Of co'se. You jest say that
Dan Jeffers is the most determined
man in all this world, but that Sue
Jeffers, his wife, is still more deter
mineder, and now you git along and
lemme cut the wood to git hoe-cake
