Blood.

We live by our blood and on
it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re.
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con-
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved ; our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
Back of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take SCOTS Emulsion

What Miners Get.
The Menus Origin.

The origin Of the menu card has
been traced to the Duke of Brunswick.
He was observed in the intervals of a
banquet to scan carefully long strip
of paper by the side of his plate, and
when the curious guests ventured to
inquire into the nature of his studies
he explained that it was sort of pro-
gram of the dishes which he had COM
manded from the cooks, to the intent
that If some delicacy which especially
appealed to him were marked for late
stage in the repast he might carefully
reserve his appetite for it. The sim
plicity and beauty of the idea appealed
instantly to the dukes convivers, and
the menu card from that moment be-
came an institution. In its old-fash-
Toned form, we are told, the bill was
usually written in large letters on
cards of such imposing dimensions
that room for only one could be found
at each end of the board.-Pittsburg

Passed Under shower of Tar.

Falling tar from the viaducts of the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific rail-
road at 9th, 6Sth, Goth, 10th and I'D
streets yesterday ruined many hats and
bonnets and dresses of Englewood men
and women, the hot sun causing ver-
liable shower of the sticky stuff to rain
down upon the sidewalks underneath
the tracks, says the Chicago Record.
The trouble began about noontime,
when the church-goers of the southern
suburb began to start homeward, and
the shower" continued all day, pedes-
trians finding when it was too late that
their passage under the viaducts had
put them in very badly despatched
condition. Railway officials say the
trouble was caused by the spreading
on too thick of the tar on the viaduct
floorings in order to make them water
proof, the hot sun thinning it out so
that it leaked through the tracks.
