" "DEATH IN
THE POT"

death in the pot" That sentence
condenses the story of tragedy. A
little family gathering. A fine dinner
cooked in the large copper kettle long
disused, and the entire family poisoned
by the accumulated verdigris. The story
was told by the newspapers from one
end OF the land to the other. But il was
soon forgotten. The moral of it is, that
the purest Of food, put into foul vessel,
instead of rninis;ering to life may be-
come a minister of death.
If the stomach 10 diseased it is like the
poisonous kettle, which taints everything
that goes into IT, The symptoms are
irregular appetite, undue fullness after
eating, distressed feeling in the stomach,
Of Auttering and sinking sensations, pal
pitstion, dizziness, ringing in ears, sour or
bitter risings and constipation. Not all
these symptoms may be present at the
same time, but any of them shows dis
ease in the digestive or aliinentary tract.
The intimate relation Of the stomach
10 the blood, heart, liver and lungs
makes IL a medical maxim in exploring
the causes of obscure diseases 10 start
with the stomach" 1t is upon this
principle that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal Discovery effects so many and such
remarkable cures. II cleanses the stoin-
Rch and the system is clesnsed. II in
creases the action Of the blood making
glands, and the body is enriched by the
purified blood. II strengthens the di-
gestiVe or nutritive organs and these
strengthen the whole body by increasing
the quantity and quality Of its nourish-
ment. II carries OF the poisonous, effete
matter. In this way Il rs-establishes
health, bsnishing the bodily aches, which
are but symptoms Of the stomachs
condition.
All medicine dealers sell "Goiden
Medical Discovery" II they try to
substitute something else, it is because
something else" pays better. Insist
on "Golden Medical Discovery" If you
want to be cured.

How to Avoid Wrinkles.

II you have any desire to avoid wrill.
kles, care not only for your skin, but your
nerves; control your temper and do not
try to have . too expressive and viva
cious countenance. Sleep nine hours a
night and an hour q day. Decline to
worry. Wear smoked glasses instead Of
scowling iercely at the sunlight and the
water. Refuse to try to distinguish
things afar off. Wash your face in warm
water with pure soap once q day and rub
it softly with flannel after washing.
Feed it with pure, cold cream. Don't be
afraid of an occasional sunburn. It
smooths the face wonderfully. But,
above all, be emotionless.

DISCOVERED BY A WOMAN.

Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. "Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and tor seven
years she withstood its severesl tests
but her vital organs were undermined
and death seemed imminent. For
three months she coughed inces-
sanity, and could not sleep. She
finally discovered way to recovery
by purchasing of us a bottle of DR..
Kings New Discovery for consump-
ton, and was so much relieved on
taking first dose, that she slept all
night; and with two bottles has been
absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.

left 10 die in agony"
The horse enters into the spirit of
battle like a human being. He
shows no fear of death and 40 sign of
panic in all the wild tumult OF the bat
ties din. A horse in one of the bat
teries in the Murfreeboro fight had his
skull split by piece of shell so that
one side was completely loosened The
driver turned him loose, but he walked
mp TO the side of the gun and watched
the firing, following the shots with his
gaze as II 10 note their effect on the
enemy. When he saw the team he had
worked with being driven back for am
munitlon he ran to his old place and
galloped back with the rest and when
an officer pushed him aside to have an
other horse put in he gazed at the new
conner with a most sorrowful express
sion in his eyes. Then, seeming to
realize that the glory of battle was no
more for him, ne walked slowly away
lay down and died. The officer who
owned him declared that it was not the
wound but a broken heart that killed
him.
Some time ago a fremans horse was
sold to secondhand furniture man,
and one day as he was coming down
the street with load the signal gong
rang in the engine-house he just hap
pened to be passing. The old horse
had been going at the pace of a nag,
but there was a change now, and the
Driver picKed himself up from Tie
ground only to see his steed disappear
ing around the corner at breakueck
speed, with bureau drawers and chairs
flying and litterlng the street. The
animal shot like a meteor ahead of the
flying fire brigade, selected a hydrant
and backed what was left of the wagon
up against it. The driver came pant
ing up to the spot, and as the horse
eyed him its face broke into a positive
grin-which goes to prove that the
equine species are not without a sense

SOME FUNNY ANSWERS.

writer in the Syracuse Post, | have
swers which she made a note Of.
Here they are:
The stomach is the most diluted

Hygiene is all that you can tell
about that which is asked"

SO slow that neither the monkey

"A germ is a name applied to par
ticular particle, tiny subbacterial or
ganism, which. when demonstrated
causes disease"
"A germ is a tiny insect or bug
sometimes found in diseases or or
gans; that is why diseases are con-
tagious. 1t is so small that it can

What can I tell you, dear, save that

that does not begin and end in Alton

Yes, more than anything you could

Of nothing that would have comforted

me now, Kate am better for your

1t had not been in vain then; the
sun Of her life had set in darkness
and gloom, but she had made one at
| least happy So the past was men
] t.oned No more. She tried to bear her
| life. She never complained. She was
| like a devoted daughter to Lady Bran
don She was the most loving of sis
ters to the young heiress. But day ny
day she grew more and more sad; she
grew pale and thin; she began to hope
that Heaven would take pity on her,
and let her die soon.
So the winter months came round,
and at Christmas preparations were
begun for the marriage Of the young
heress. Lady Brandon had invited
large circle OF guests, and one OF
them, not knowing of the recent con-
tretemps, having just returned from
Spain spoke OF Sir Marc Caryll, and
said he was going to take up his resi-
dence abroad
Veronica overheard II. She did not
speak, the lonely face grew paler,
and a mist of unshed tears dimmed the
beautiful eyes. but soon afterwards
she went to Lady Brandon's room,
her marvellous sglf-control gone at
last She stood before her with
look that Lady Brandon never forgot.
You must let me go away" she
said, II cannot remain here. / cannot

Then she wept as she had never

don was alarmed and she herself was
exhausted Then Lady Brandon said
to her;

So for the sake of the woman who
had influenced her so strongly she
waited, but it seemed to her and to
every one else that those days brought
her nearer death.
