Nc Right To Ugliness.

The woman who is lovely in
face, form and temper will always
have friends, but one who would
be attractive must keep her health.
If she is weak, sickly and all run
down, she will be nervous and
irritable, If she has constipation
or kidney trouble, her impure
blood will cause pimples, blotches,
skin eruptions and a wretched
complexion. Electric Bitters is
the best medicine in the world to
regulate stomach, liver and kid
neys and to purify the blood. It
gives strong nerves. bright eyes,
smooth, velvety skin, rich com
plexion. It will make a good
looking, charming woman of a
rundown invalid. Only SO cents

His blood flows in the pale, disfigured babe
Der which the pale, heart-broken mother
bends.
But what to him are those hot tears she sheds,
The hungry cries they raise; their twisted
limbs?
Through this dread shape the devil boldly looks,
And in that Keeling presence mocks the world!
Through this dread shape humanity is shamed,
Profaned, outraged, dragged down and brought
to scorn-
Made to inhale fumes from the slime he spews
And hear him jest at Virtue and at God.
o, masters, lords and rulers in our land,
Must this foul solecism still
Be tolerated in an age when men
Grasp power from the circumambient air
And speak through space across the roaring
CULTS?
Must this vile thing left to wed at will
And propagate his idiotic spawn,
A shame upon the age in which we live,
A curse upon generations to be born?
O., masters, lords and rulers in our land,
How may We hope to reckon with this IMAM?
How get along without the vote he casts
When there are public offices to 1ill9
How will it be with candidates when he
NO longer hangs upon Tile feeklnS par
Prepared to fight. to stab, to murder, and
To vote for him who furnishes his drinks?
IS. E. Kiser, in the Chicago Times Herald.
Minneapolis Times /: In New
Zealand a man who drinks too
much for his own good may be
summoned before any justice of
the peace on complaint of any
member Of his family or other per-
son interested. Witnesses are
then heard and if it a be proven
that he "misspends, wastes and
lessons his estate, greatly Injuries
his health and endangers and in
terrupts the peace and happiness
of his family" the magistrate will
issue a written order to all liquor
dealers within his jurisdiction, for
hidden them to furnish him with
any Intoxicating liquors for a
period of twelve months. Severe
penalties are provided for those
who violate such an injunction, as
we'll as for persons who may OBJ
tain for or give to the convicted
drunkard any Intoxicating drink.
1t is a long time between drinks
for some of those New Zealanders.

New Postal Money Order.

The postofice department has
adopted a new form Of domestic
money order which will be intro
duced gradually, or as supplies
of the old form become exhausted,
at the various postofaces' through,
out the country, after the 18th Of
September. The new form is
somewhat smaller than the order
now in use. It's dimensions are
about those of the ordinary bank
draft. It has two adjuncts-the
advice, or notification to be sent
by the issuing to the paying post
master, is a reproduction of the
order through the use of carbon
lied paper (the manifold process,)
and a receipt for the amount, to be
furnished by the issuing post
master to the remitter. On the
back Of the order a seperate space
has been provided for the stamps
Of banks through which it may be
passed for collection,
In color the order is blue, having
a light blue ground, with fine,
closely interlaced, tinted lines of
geometrical lathe-work Of darker
shade. In the center is an es-
cutcheon bearing the words.
"Postal Money Order" in shaded
capital letters of the same two
tints Of blue. The tint Of the
order and the lathe work will serve
to prevent limitations, but as an
additional safeguard against
counterfeiting, a horizontal water
mark, composed Of the initials,
US. M. O., in broad capital letters
has been wrought into the paper
on which the new forms are
printed.
The postal money order system,
from a small beginning in 1864,
when the number Of money order
postofices established in the
United States was 4l9, has grown
to be one Of the great indespens-
able agencies of exchange. There
are now about 10000 such Offices.
The number Of domestic money
orders issued in the United States
during the past year was over &c.
100000 amounting in value to
$2l0,000,000 The system is used
most extensively for remittances
from places where bank exchange
is not SO readily obtainable.
While supplementing facilities for
intercourse between populous
centers, it has it's own special field,
supplying means for the safe and
cheap transportation Of money
where other agencies for the pur-
pose could not be successfully
maintained.
In the adoption Of the new form
of order the interests and prefer
ences of patrons Of the system, no
less than economy Of administra-
ton, have been duly considered;
and it is therefore ccnfidentially
expected that it will tend to en-
nance in no small degree the
popularity of this method Of max
ing remittances. It is expected
that on or about January LIST, next
the fee charged for orders will be
materially reduced.

Edwin Markham's "The Man

many times. Here is one Of the
best:
THE MAN WITH TIL LOAD.
Bowed by a weight of fiery stuff, he leans
Against the hitching-post, and gazes round!
Besotted emptiness in his face,
He bears a load that still may get him down.
Who made him dull to shame and dead tc
pride,
A thing that cares not and that never thinks,
Filthy, %profane, a consort for the pig7
Who loosened and let down that stubbly java
Whence came the scum adhering to those lips
What was it clogged and burned away his
brain?
Is this the thing the Lord God made and gave
To have dominion over sea and land;
To love and to be loved; to propagate
And feel the passion of Eternity?
Is this the dream He dreamed who shaped the
suns
And pillared the blue armament with light?
Down all the stretch of hell to it's last gulf
There is no shape more hideous than this
More tongned with proof that Darwin didn't
