why do women worry. cry and fret, wher
they should be pleasant and happy most Of

why are men blue Respondent. melancholy,

hopeful, cnterprising and vigorous.
Why should any man or woman endanger
health, possibly life. when little care will

Why is the present season of the year so
depressing, enervatng--the very air flied
with chllls, pneumonia, grip and all bad in.
fluences?
why unless the seeds OF disease are ON
every hand. and need to be fought against
constantly?
Why will people permit the dangers, sick
ness and troubles OF this season to AFFECT
their health and undermine their life, when
they can easily be counterncted?
Why do people not realize that the best
thing for overcoming these troubles is p,iro
whisky taken as medicine?
Why will people persist In taking impure,
adulterated injurious whisky, when so pure
an article can be secured as Duffv's Pure
Malt?
Why will unserrpulous druggists seek to

cause they can make much more money out
of the cheap and impure, than they can from
the sale of the genuine and valuable.

and unfriendly. He reared, stamped,
shook his crazed head and stared at the
creeping things before his vision.
At last BOSS" went mad and bell
lowed through the night like an en-
ragged demon. He chased everything in
sight, and viciously dashed him
self against the forest trees. The
mere tramp of foot angered
him. The points of the horns
were cruelty pressing against his
helpless eyes, back in their sockets, and
every jar upon the ground tortured his
brain and enraged him. "Boss" had
scattered the mob of his Eliminating
mates and had so terrorized the few
people about that fences did not give
sense of security. Women and chill
dren lived in mortal dread of the I'M
fortunate beast.
At length his maddened roar was
heard no more. About month after
that the out-boundary rider went out
with dogs and Winchester rifle to end
the suffering of "Sheephead Boss"
After searching for two days the bull
lock was found. BOSS" was dead. He
was lying under a clump of acacia, less
sweet than their blossoms. He had evil
IDENTIFY been dead for week or more,
and had been blind for months. The
horns had grown into the eyes and al
most touched the bone of the skull be-
hind. The head of the poor beast was
as strange an object as ever was seen.
The horns of BOSS" were never
curved by any art. They grew as nature
directed their fatal tips, and, unless
sent to the Royal College of Veterinary
Surgeons, England, the preserved head
still hangs upon the door of the Oar
ling out station, where BOSS" lived and
died.-Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
