The blood is the life." Science has
never gone beyond that simple statement
of scripture. But it has Illuminated that
statement and given it a meaning ever
broadening with the increasing breadth Of
knowledge. When the blood is bad" Oh
impure it is not alone the body which suf
fers through disease. The brain is also
clouded, the mind and judgment are af
fected; and many an evil deed or impure
thought may be directly traced to the i'm
purity of the blood. No one can be well
balanced in mind and body whose blood
is impure. No one can have wholesome
and pure life unless the blood is pure.
Foul blood can be made pure by the use
of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
When the blood is pure body and brain
are alike healthy and life becomes daily
happiness.

He Had No Faith In That Particular
EGg.
Here is an entirely new story about
the late Col. 1ngersoll. which Is quite
as good and fully as genuine as the
usual run of them, says the Cleveland
Plain Dealer. When Ingersoll was a
young man he went into q short-order
restaurant in Peoria and called for an
egg. You are an agnostic. think.
said the waiter. who was also a college
student in the winter. and had just as
sociated himself with the restaurant
business. Your habit Of thinking has
not betrayed you this time-I am" re-
piled Ingersoll. Then you do not
have faith in the integrity of this egg
quoted the waiter. Il have no faith in
its integrity" replied Bob. II have
no faith in anything. l believe only In
what see or in what is proved to me"
Il have faith in the egg." said the stu
dent. and he regarded the colonel with
sad eyes. MY faith tells me that It
contains a yolk." MY doubt admits
nothing of the kind" said the agnostic.
So the student broke the egg. and. 10!
It contained a chicken! But the fact 10
the agnostic took an unfair advantage
OF the student. He had eaten at that
restaurant before.

A woman's prospect OF marriage is

The bedroom is often neglected, es-
pecially in winter, yet next to the
kitchen It is the most important room
in the house. for large part of ones
life IS passed there The bed should
first have all the coverings stripped
of onto two chairs set at the foot. The
mattress should be doubled so the air
may get to all parts. With the win
dows open the room should be left for
an hour at least, except in severe
weather. Each piece Of bedclothing
should be well shaken before it is re-
turned to the bed. and the pillows beat
ea and patted into shape. The white
spread. which should have been re-
moved and folded when the bed was
prepared for use the night before Is now
fresh and smooth. i; pillow shams
are not used the creased slips may be
exchanged for fresh day cases and the
former laid aside for evening use
again The bed is not all that needs
close care in the sleeping room. The
dusting is far more important than
most people suspect. The fun and
dust that accumulate everywhere are
favorite resting places for disease
germs. and for this reason the bits OF
pretty drapery. the bric-a-brac and all
other ornaments are not 10 be COM

piece OF furniture should be carefully
wiped OF each day with soft cloth.
which should be shaken out the win

receive a thorough sweeping. when
every article should be moved and no
nook or corner left unbrushed. The
receptacles for waste wpter should be
washed and scalded every day In SUM-
mer: also summing when possible. The
wash clothes. too. should be washed
and scalded to keep them from sour
ing. Soiled clothes should never be
left in a sleeping room: they will SO
soon contaminate the atmosphere.
Shoes and other articles OF apparel will
soon gather dust and look very untidy.
When these precautions have been
closely followed there will never be
found In bedroom the close, unpleas-
ant odor so often noticed even in hand

malodors are not only disagreeable, but

should be stated because of the reck-

TO SURRENDER THE oAvEL,

On account of the in1rmities incl
dent to four score years Of active liza.
Miss Susan B. Anthony. whose name
has long been Identified With the lead
ership of the equal suffrage movement
In the United States. will formally sur
render the gavel Of the National Wom-
ans Suffrage Association at the ap-
preaching session Of that body In jan
uary next. Her successor will likely
be Mrs. Carrie Chapmsn-Catt OF New
York. Mrs. Chapman-Catt IL now IN
the vigorous prime OF Life. Her seal-
Gus championship Of the equal suffrage
movement In this country has brought
her into widespread national promi-
nence: and there are few localities IN
the United States In which she has no:
spoken on behalf Of the equal suffrage
cause. When the national convention
met In Atlanta In 1895 she was the
most conspicuous figure Of that body
next to Miss Anthony. and she made
several effective speeches during the
progress Of the proceedings. Mrs.
Chapman-Catt has enjoyed the benent
of most liberal college advantages; and
In this respect she difIers from Miss
Anthony. whose educational opportuni.
ties were restricted to those Of the
modest village schools which she at.
tended In early girlhood. Miss An
thony Is indebted to her qualities Of
born leadership rather than to her ed
ucational equipment for her success In
directing the interests Of the equal suf.
frage cause. Mrs.. Chapman Gait Is en-
dowed with exceptionally brilliant
