D rich in honey where the bee
can get them with least effort, means an
increase in the quantity and quality Of
the honey garnered in the hives.
1t is on this principle that DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery increases the
quantity and quality Of the nutrition of
the body. The ingredients of this medi-
cine are selected to furnish the blood
and stomach with the essential materials
for body building, in concentrated and
assimilable form. They make the con-
ditions under which the stomach and
organs of digestion and nutrition must
work, as easy as possible, and so reduce
strain and waste. As che strength OF
the body is re-establisised disease is
thrown off. It is due to this fact that
persons with weak lungs, obstinate
cough, bronchitis, and other diseases,
which if neglected lead to consumption,
find complete cure by using Golden
Medical Discovery"
"Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
best blood purifier that ever used" writes Mrs
M Hartrick, Of Demster, Oswego Co., N. Y" It is
about three years since my health began to fail,
Last September I gave out entirely with what
the physicians pronounced enlargement y, OF the
tor said must not ride, in fact could not ride
nor walk, nor hardly sit still could not lie on
my right side. Icomnenced taking the Golden
Medical Discovery and Pellets took them for
three months, and still continue the Pellets. I
will be glad If can say anything to help those
who are suffering"

the labor of the new island possessions.
The Standard declared that unless the
constitution, as expounded by the SUI
preme court of the United States, were
set aside. the cheap degraded labor

and the horde Of Asiatics which we
took unto ourselves when we took the

our mines and our mills"
The danger is in Philippine reten-
ton. The menace to American labor
is in bringing 10000, 900 Asiatic coolies
under the American flag. The difficulty
is that when the Jurisdiction of con-
gress over these people is complete
there viii be no way to keep them out
of competition with American labor.

not more severe than was the Spanish
law In this particular, and any tariff

cessita~~d bi-Weekly visits to the horse
markets. A pet horse put his hOof
through the canvas and thus delayed
fer some months the completion of the
picture. The English love of horses
caused Englishmen to greet this pic
ture with an enthusiasm which soon
spread to America. Mr.. A. T. Stewart
then bought the Horse Fair of its
English purchaser, and it now hangs
in the Metropolitan museum in New
York When Landseer, who admired
the artist even more than her can
vases, srst saw the Horse Fair" he
said: ut surpasses me, though it's
little hard to be beaten by a woman.
After viewing this picture the Paris sa-
Ion exempted thencefOrth all the work
of Rosa Bonheur from examination by
the jury Of admission. Napoleon III.
shared the popUla~ enthusiasm over the
Horse Fair bu iesitated to violate
the cOnventiOnaiities by comforting the

first time u1On a woman. So Eugene,
careless Of imperiling her popularity
and determined that honors should be
bestowed where most deserved, drove
Informally to the artists fine old place
near Fontainebleau, and pinned the
medal uDOn her working blouse.
Utterly unaffected by the highest
honors which could be showered upon
her, Rosa Bonheur worked as indus
tFiously as ever in the seclusiOn of her
forest home. She said that while she
believed that her father would have
become one of the great masters Of
painting had he not been obliged to
work himself to death. she neverthe-
less felt that he erred in trying too
hard to please the public. She there
fore decided to paint only such pictures
as nature prompted her to paint. in
variably refusing all orders and selling
none but finished work.
When the Prussians entered Paris in
1871 her studio alone was unmolested

tempered and generous hearted, until
