LIKE BANouo's GHOST.
Question of Conductors and Pennies -
the Fore Again.

the Fore Again.
1t was in suburban trolley laSt
Sunday that the question of the con-
ductor's reluctance to receive pennies
In change came up again, says the New
York Herald. This penny question 10
like BanGuo's ghost and will not down.
A woman passenger had given the COM
ductor a nickel and five pennies for
two fares. Il would rather change 50
for you, madam, than take those pen-
Mes" the conductor said, In Q
grumbling yet perfectly respectful tonal
"Why?" asked the woman. Because
the company will not take them from
us. That is the only objection | have
to railroading. We must turn in nick
els or silver when our work is done"
"But why do you not sometimes give
those pennies to men? You always
palm them off on women" "Well, the
women always seem to keep them
specially for u.s. Now, II the public
could only know what Il II they are
to us sometimes they might understand
our reluctance to take them. For in.
stance, one of the extras, a man who
had been out Of work for long time.
after making the number of trips re.
quired of him, found he had fifteen
pennies among his change. He did not
have cent belonging to himself, and
there was no money at home, and the
pay that was coming to him at the Of.
flee for his weeks work was needed BY
his wife and children for bread. They
would not take the pennies at the OF.
flee, and he could not draw his pay un-
til his fares were accounted for. When,
after considerable trouble, he got three
nickels for fifteen pennies and returned
to the company's Office 1t was closed.
and he had to go home without his
pay"

Beauty is born in the blood. Beauty is
more than ''skin deep" it is blood deep.
When the blood is tainted by disease the
flesh will feel ii and the skin will show it.
Sallow or muddy compilations, pimples,
blOtches, and eruptions are only the surface
signs of impure blood. Face powders. 10.
tions, complexion powders, may palllate the
evils but they cannot cure the disease. The
only cure is to cleanse the blood of the poi
sonOus matter which is the cause of the out
break in the flesh and skin. Impure blood
can be absolutely purified by the use of DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Its
effect on flesh and skin is marked Sores
heal and disappear. The skin becor Us
smooth, and regains its natural color. The
eyes brighten and sparkle, the whole body
radient with the brightness and beauty of
health. Golden Medical Discovery" con-
tains no alcohol, whiskey or other intoxicant,
and is absolutely free from opium, cocaine
and other narcotics. The use of DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets, assists the action of the
Discovery" by cleansing the system of
cl0gging matter
