The popular idea expressed i'll the
nhrase 1.-THE art of self-defense," shows
the opinion that the chief enemies man
has to defend himself from are visible
and external. But the real danger of
every man is from minute and often in
visible foes. In the air we breathe and
the water we drink are countless minute
organisms leagued against the health of
the body.
The one defense against these enemies
is to keep the blood pure. DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery thoroughly
purfies the blood, removing poisonous
substances and accretions. When the
blood is pure there is no harborage for
the germs of disease which find lodg-
ing only when the blood is impure and
corrupt.
Fl consider your Golden Medical Discovery
one of the best medicines the face Of the
EARTH writes Mr. VIM. Floeter, of Redoak,
Montgomery Co. Iowa. "Whilc in the south
west three years ago, got poisoned with poi

the horrors I suffered cannot be told in words

The Maple Sugar Season.

The Ogdensburg Journal says: Farm
ers over in Vermont are already begin
ming to talk of the maple sugar season,
and. weather conditions permitting,
buckets will be busy within month and
the industry will be on in earnest. Ind-
cations point to large crop this year.
The long continued cold weather, heavy
snow and general climatic conditions are
said to have been favorable for a good
flow of sap, and trees which suffered
from the ravages of the forest tent cater
piller two years ago, have recovered
their former vigor. The demand for
pure maple syrup and sugar of good
flavor and quality Is constantly increas-
ing, and greater quantities are being
shipped to the West each succeeding
year. Though the maple sugar industry
IN the st. Lawrence county is flourish
ing. there are not so many large groves
as there are in Vermont. A good sugar
bush is profitable to the farmer, and the
work comes at a time when there is little
else to dc. As good sugar and syrup i,
made in st. Lawrence county as in any
part of the country and large quantitie,
are shipped TO the cities, St. Lawren G,
county maple sugar should be as wei
known to the market as that from Yer
mont.

D. A. &M. SOCIETY GETS CALDER S

Exposition to be Held There Next Year

On account OF some legal difficulties
II took time to arrange the deal but
now that IL has been accomplished the
society Is much 20 be oongratu-
lated. The society not being IN a
position to pay cash has arranged
for a five-year lease with the option OF
buying at the end OF that period This
will enable the society to dispose Of
the Agricultural park, which embodes
forty acres west Of the city and which
II is understood Is much desired by the
railroads for terminal purposes.
The park will be continued as resort
during the summer months with the ex-
ception OF the week duri.,g which the
fair Is held and win thus be a source
of income TO the society.
II Is the belief OF prominent business
men Of the city that the deal ls a fine
business move. The population OF Salt
Lake is rapidly increasing and with the
improvements to be made at Calders
will come increased patronage at the
resort. The southern portion of the
city is also being built up and each
year will not only increase the value
OF the grounds but will also make the re-
sort the Mecca OF more pleasure seek
ing people The fact that the grounds
can be operated az a resort for several
months each year make II the best pos
sible site for the state fair.
