The HOME GOLD CURE,
An Ingenious Treatment by which Drunkards
are Being Cured Daily In spite of
themselves.

It is now generally known and under
stood that Drunkenness is a disease and
not weakness. A body filled with poi
son, and nerves completely shattered by
periodical or constant use of ixtoxicat-
ing liquors, requires an antidote capable
of netrallzing and eradicating this pol
son, and destroying the craving for IN
toxicants. Sufferers may now cure them
selves at home without publicity or loss
of time from business by this wonderful
aHOME GOLD CURE" which has been
perfected after many years of close study
and treatment of inebriates. The faith
full use according to directions of this
wonderful discovery is positively guar
anteed to cure the most obstinate case,
no matter how hard drinker. Our re-
cords show the marvellous transforma-
ton of thousands of Drunkards into sob
er, industrious and uprightlmen.
WIVES CURE YOUR HUSBANDSii
CHILDREN CURE YOUR FATHERSl
This remedy is in no sense nostrum
but is specific for this disease only,
and is so skillfully devised and prepared
that it is thoroughly soluble and pleas
ant to the taste, so that it can be given
in cup of tea or coffee without the
knowledge of the person taking it.
Thousands of Drunkards have cured
themselves with this priceless remedy,
/ and as many more have been cured and
made temperate men by having the
"CURE''. administered by loving friends
and relatives without their knowledge
in coffee or tea, and believe today that
they discontinued drinking of their own
free will. DO NOT WAIT. Do not be
deluded by apparent and misleading

GOLD CURE" is sold at the extremely
low price of One Dollar, thus placing

Doing Considerable Damage,

Doing Considerable Damage.
Minneapolis. Aug. 26.-Havoc was
caused to property interests by the ter
rife wind, hail, rain and electrical
storm that swept over the city last
night. There were no accidents or
loss of life, however
The storm spent It's fury in the de-
struction Of store fronts, windows in
hotels and dwellings along its path.
Panics were occasioned in churches
and hospitals by the ferceness Of the
gale.
The Great Northern elevators, situ-
ated on the ST Louis tracks at Lyn-
dale avenue, received the full fury Of
the storm. Elevator No. 2, which was
burned q little over five years ago,
came in for the major share Of the
damage. The structure, above what
Is known as the bin floor, is total
wreck, and Manager Hiddleston said
that at a rough estimate the damage
to that building alone would be in the
neighborhood Of $50, 900.
The l6O-foot brick smokestack situ-
ated directly between the two elevators
passed through the storm uniniured.

A bill which Il intended TO check
hasty marriages within New York
state has been reported by the assem-
bly, committee on Judiciary. Because
Of some amendments the bill has been
ordered reprinted for recommitment.
TO attain the end In view the measure
provides that no marriage In New
York state shall be legal without .
properly acknowledged license. The
provisions Of the bill were drafted by q
committee appointed by the conven-
ton OF the Protestant Episcopal do
eese Of New York, which was called
for this purpose at Elmira by Bishop
Huntingdon
The manner Of procuring marriage
license is dealt with In detail by the
bill. The licenses are to be issued by
the county clerk Of the county where
either Of the persons resides, or i'm the

Regular Hours for Mi1kins.
The cows stomach resembles clock
IN one particular-its machineryis ar
ranged to mark time; It lis wound up to
strike the feeding hour, and it strikes
that hour almost to the minute, says
the Jersey Bulletin. II the feeding
time Is changed for even an hour the
yield Of milk will decline, and the flow
OF milk once lowered is very difficult Of
restoration. Regularity in feeding and
in milking is Of the highest Importance
with good cows, the better the cows
the more important. It makes the DIFF

gain or loss. Select whatever hours
are most convenient, but when once 30
