Oririn of 8bsintIl.

Absinth, the green fiend that satu-
rates fashionable France, was original
~ an extremely harmless medical
remedy.
1t was a French physician who first
used it. His name was Ordinaire, and
he was living as a refugee at COuvet,
in Switzerland, at the close of the
eighteenth century. Like many other
country doctors at that time, he was
also a druggist, and his favorite rene
dy was a certain elixir of absinth Of
which he alone had the secret.
AT his death he bequeated the for
mula to his housekeeper, Mile. Grand
pierre, and she sold it to the daughters
of Lieutenant uenriOd. They Guilt
waited in their little garden the herbs
necessary for cOncocting it, and after
they had distilled a certain quantity of
the liquid they sold it on commission
to itinerant peddIers, who quickly dis
posed of it i'll the adjacent towns and
villages.
Finally, during the first decade Of the
nineteenth century, wealthy distiIIer
purchased the formula, and very soon
afterward lie placed on the market the
modern absinth, which differs greatly
from the old medical remedy, since the
latter contained no alcohol and very
little aDSinth.

A COnyiDcinp Arpumeut.

Richland Democrat: One of the
most convincing arguments against
patronizing catalogue houses we have
ever seen, and one too, which may be
duplicated on any line Of goods in
any business house in town, is made
in plain figures on a placard on a
sewing machine in Pratt Bros store.
A page from the catalogue of the
widely advertised firm Of Sears, Roe
buck & Co. is attached to the placard
on which in big type is the firms
price of the New Home machine. The
price is $10.45. The freight and re-
turn charges on the money sent them
would amount to $40, making the
net cost of the machine laid down at
the depot here $1185. Pratt Bros.
are selling the same machine for
$l0.25 and guarantee that it is in good
running order when delivered in your
home.

FARM LAND,
PRICE WILL RISE.
Hon. J. Sterling Morton Gives Young
Men Advice.
.-.-,----- DRUGGISTS

There is no better authority on the
value of farm property than the Hon.
J. Sterling Morton, eX-sceretary Of
agriculture. In a recent article in
the Saturday Evening Post he eN-
presses the conviction that within
the next fifty years all farming lands
that are we'll located anywhere in
the United States will be worth at
least 5000 to $300per acre, while those
lying close to market and the cities
will be worth more yet. He says
that this will not be due to speCula-
ton in agricultural lands but simply
to the demands which our increas-
ing population will make upon lands
of that class. He advises the young
men of this country to get farms, to
take up homesteads if possible and
then hold on to them. He says that
nothing that he knows of in the line
of Legitimate business promises so
we'll as does the securing of desirable
farming lands before the price goes
any higher,

His Idea of Heaven.

The lad was about five years of age
and naturally inquisitive. He asked
his father questions he had never
heard before, and the fond parent was
a DcrpleXed man.
The youngster got on the subject of
the next world one day and wanted to
know a lot of things. "Wiu you wear
a mustache in heaven, papa?" he ask
ed.
Il suppose 1 will, my son." replied
the father.
You'll make a funny angel"
There was a long pause, and finally
the boy asked what kind of a place
heaven was. The father in order to
satisfy his son went into lengthy de-
tails in describing its beauty.
The lad listened with open mouth
and finally said, "Why, papa, heaven
must look like the ten cent store!'-

FISH AS FOOD.
The Best Kinds to Eat and the Way
to Cook Them.

to Cook Them.
Fish constitutes one of the most val
liable articles of diet for mankind, al
though the popular notion that it is a
good brain food because of the phos-
phorus it contains is incorrect. AS a
matter of fact fish meat in general con-
tains less phosphorus than most kinds
Of flesh meat. But it is good for the
brain indirectly, for it is less stimulat-
ing than flesh meat, is usually digested
more easily and causes the production
in the system of fewer of the waste
products which, if not at once elimi-
mated, act injuriously upon the deli
cate nervous system.
The last mentioned property is one
which renders fish Of especial value in
the diet Of persons suffering from
Brigbt's disease and other affections Of
the kidneys, from rheumatism, govt,
and all those diseases which many ply
sicians regard as the result Of excessive
formation or retention Of uric acid. For
cOnyaIescents also it is most useful, as
it supplies a fair amount of nutritive
material in palatable form, with q min
imum Of tax on the digestive organs.
Among the most nourishing and at
the same time digestible fish are blue
fish, shad, red snapper, fresh Goldfish,
whitefsh, striped bass, halibut and
founders. And equally nutritious, al
though perhaps less digestible, are
brook trout, lake trout, salmon, mack
erel and cells. Roe is not particularly
nutritious, but it is agreeable to the
taste and fairly digestible.
The mode of preparation has much to
do with the digestibility of fish, as it
has with that of all other foods. Boil
ing and broiling are better modes Of
cooking than frying.
The chief objection to fish is its
proneness to decomposition, even when
kept on ice. 1t may be free from any
taste or Odor, and yet it may have un-
dergone changes which make it poison
Gus. Some fish are poisonous in them
selves, containing in the natural state
some substance which will cause alarm
ing symptoms, or even death, if eaten.
With some persons fish in any form
does not agree, causing digestive disor
ders or skin eruptions. This is notably
true of Holsters and crabs.-Youth's
Companion.

PEOPLE HAVE

Others don't. People who don't are
not usually of an investing turn of
mind. They haven't much money.
What they have won't buy soft
carpets, comfortable chairs and rest

judge all stores by one which happens
to be very high priced. And so time
rolls on. They curl up in their hard,
shabby chairs, and stay their, while
the world goes on making furniture
more beautiful and prices lower every
day. No one knows better than we
how little good furniture costs. Come
