learn that there is at least one dread dis
ease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly up
on the blood and mucous surface OF the sys-
tenn, thereby destroying the foundation OF
the disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing the work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list Of

THE blood is the life." Science has
never gone beyond that simple state
ment of scripture But it has illumin-
ated that statement and given it a
meaning ever broadening with the in
creaaing breath of knowledge. When
the blood is bad" or impure it is not
alone the body which suffers through
disease The brain is also clouded, the
mind and judgment are affected, and
many an evil deed or impure thought
may be directly traced to the impurity
of the blood. No one can be we'll
balanced in mind and body whose blood
is impure. No one can have whole
some and pure life unless the blood is
pure. Foul blood can be made pure by
the use of DR.. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery. When the blood is pure, body
and brain are alike healthy and life be
comes daily happiness.

What Is Being Done.

What has become of the Salvation
Army? Do they not have hard work to
live?
Good faithful work is being done by
the officers every evening of the week in
the hall. On Sunday Sunday school
service is held in the morning, into
which they aim to bring children who do
not attend any other school or church.
They are going out into the highways
and hedges and compelling them to
come in. In the afternoon Salvation
Army is held.
AS to finance, they have faith in God,
that He will put it into the hearts of the
people to consider that the laborer is
worthy of his hire. Whenever an officer
has to devote the greater part of his
time to raising finances, he can do little
spiritual work. Please do not wait for
the officers to come and tell you of their
needs. Send donations of food or funds
to Ensign S. J. Young, A Ash street.
Then too, by your presence and tes IL
monies in the meetings, help in the
work.

How to Cook ausages.

Sausages are delicious when boiled
with rice until both are sufficiently
cooked. Whole grains of spice and of
black pepper should be put in during
the cooking Another way of serving
sausages is to brown them in a pan,
then spread them with horse radish and
serve on squares Of toast. Still an
other acceptable way of preparing sau-
sages is to wipe the sausages dry. dip
them In beaten egg and bread crumbs
put them in the frying basket and

TAKE CARE OF THE FEET.
How to Preserve the Usefulness oi
the Pedal Extremities.

How to Preserve the Usefulness Of
the Pedal Extremities.
Following are some excellent rules
for the proper care of the feet:
The feet should be thoroughly wash
ed every morning and evening and
wiped carefully dry, especially be-
tween the toes, that hotbed of soft
corns.
The toe nails should be cut regularly,
but not too often, and never shorter
than ends of the toes.
When buying shoes, allow perfect
freedom for the toes. Have the breadth
Of the foot measured while you stand
on 1t and allow fully half an inch to
an inch more than the length of your
foot.
Have no tightness anywhere. What
slight pressure there is should be be-
meath the instep and on its Sides which
parts are sometimes spoken of as the
waist" of the foot.
Have the sole thinnest and narrowest
at the waist" and broadest at the
tread"
Don't be ashamed of the size of your
foot. A well formed large foot is much
better to look at than a small distorted
one, and remember that well proper
toned parts always look smaller than
they really are.
1t is only a mistaken standard of
beauty that represents hands and feet
as disproportionately small. The best
antique standards of beauty show the
perfect foot to be about one-sixth of
the whole height
To obtain health and comfort for the
foot 1t Is by no means necessary to
wear ugly boots or shoes. The boot
makers are now making footgear that
combines admirably both beauty aud
comfort, while people are gradually
beginning to understand that the foot
itself is more worth caring for than Is
its covering.
High heels placed far under the in
step are now rarely seen in the street,
though still worn in the house. They
are extremely injurious, as they throw
the body forward in an unnatural po-
sltion, which affects the spine, the
knees and the nervous system.
Chiropodists all say that if men and
women gave up wearing i'll fitting
boots and shoes the next generation
would know nothing of deformed and
diseased feet.
