A lazy liver may be only a
tired liver, or a starved liver. A
stick is all right for the back of a
lazy man. But it would be a saw
age as we'll as a stupid thing to
beat a weary man or a starving
man because he Jagged in his
work. So in treating the lag
ging liver it is a great mistake
to lash it with drastic drugs. In
ninety-nine cases out of hum
dred torpid or sluggish liver is
but symptom of an ill-nourish-
ed body, whose organs are weary
with overwork. Let your liver
alone. Start with the stomach
and it's allied organs of digestion
and putrltion. Put them 10
proper working order, and see
how quickly your liver will be-
come active and energetic. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry has made many marvellous
cures OF oliver trouble" by it's
wonderful control of the organs
of digestion and nutrition. 1t
restores the normal activity of
the stomach, increases the secre-
tfons of the blood-making glands,
cleanses the system from poison
Gus accumulations, and SO relieves
the liver of the burdens imposed
upon it by the detection of other
organs.

Mrs White told the following story
on her husband: Some years ago Fred
Harvey gave Mr.. White pass, good at
the Harvey eating houses along the
Santa E'e, and Mr. and Mrs White
started on n trip to Colorado to take
advantage of Mr. Haryey's gcnerosi-
ty. At every efting station Mr.. White
ate enormously and then proudly pro-
duced his fl ,e ticket. He had had 1t a
year and never before found oppsrtu-
nifty to use it. Mrs. White, who was
compelled to pay for her meals, ate
very sparingly, and some of the other
passengers remarked how much the
husband ate and how daintily his wife
nibbled
When they reached the last station
where the free ticket was good, Mr..
White ordered everything In sight and
simply stuffed himself. Mrs. White re-
mained in the car and nibbled little
lunch she had brought along. When
Mr.. White returned to the ear. his wife
noticed lndl ne iooheu hiShtg uhhap
py considering that he had previously
been enormously enjoying the Fred
Harvey free ticket He continued
looking unhappy, and his wife feared
that possibly he had foundered him
self and pressed him for an explana-
ton.

might as well make a clean breast ef

yey eating house, and | was compelled

2,748,OO0.000 bushels in 1898. a reduction
of 244OO0,000 bushels, or nearly SO per

Floral Effects ON China Produced
With Postage stamps.

An ingenious young girl of Chicago
has produced an exlulsitely decorated
plate in floral effects by the clever use
of postage stamps.
The chief decorations are four clever
leaves made of green stamps. The
heads are cut out around the first
notched edge, allowing the figure two
on one stamp to cover the spot where
the three heads are joined The stem
is made by clipping the outer edge,
which forms the desired curve.

tween the clover leaves are hung rose

Humor undoubtedly has its proper

say anything that would offend the
