Phe Young of the Sen Devil.

You may find in the sea devil curl ous illustration of natures system for adjusting reproduction. The cod lays several hundred thousand eggs at a spawning because nearly all of them must necessarily be lost while floating on the waves and those which hatch are mostly devoured. But the sea devil, which produces but a single young one at q time. retains the latter in it's belly until the infant creature is from four to six feet in length, so that wien born it is able to take care of itself and is in no danger of being destroyed.

Apples, to be really beneficial, should be eaten as children eat them, rind and all, and in sufficient quantities to be satis- flying. The man who, first pairing off the skin and with it the best part of the flesh. dallies with the residue of an apple after dinner is no true apple lover. l believe that the fermeS1 germs which reside on the skin of the fruit and play the most prominent part in the conversion of the expressed juice of the vintage varieties into cider are themselves aids to diges- tion Certain it is that to those who are accustomed to them, and who eat them skin and all. no fruits are so easy of di- gestion as apples.-C. w.

Keeping at It.

There Is very old but very good story about a boy who was engaged enc winter day in putting a ton of coal Into cellar. His only implement was small fire shovel. Noticing this, benevolent old gentleman expressed surprise and commiseration.
 ''A1y son." said the gentleman. 'you surely do not expect to put In all that coal with that little shovel?"
 "Oh. yes, do," replied the boy cheer fully. "All have to do is to keep at it."
 There is a lesson in this story for young and old, and it is exempliied in the lives of the great men of the world. 1t is a intake to suppose that the best work of the world is done by people of great strength and many opportunities. Keeping at it' is the secret of success

HAIR SOFT AS SILK.
New Scientific Treatment Kills Dandruff
 Germs, and Makes Hair Soft.

It is an accepted fact, a proven fact, that dandruff is a germ disease; and il is also a demonstrated fact that New. bros Herpicide kills the dandruff germ. Without dandruff falling hair will stop, and thin hair will thicken. Her picide not only kills the dandruff germ, but it also makes hair as soft as silk. It is the most delightful hair dressing made. It cleanses the scalp from dan druff and keeps 1t clean and healthy. Itching and irritation are instantly re lieved, and permanently cured. At all druggists.

Catdrrh

The cause exists in the blood, in what causes inflammation of the mucous membrane.
 It is therefore impossible to cure the disease by local applications.
 It is positively dangerous to neg lect it, because it always affects the stomach and deranges the general health, and is likely to develop into consumption.
 Many have been radically and permanently cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla. It cleanses the blood and has peculiar alternative and tonic effect R. Long. California Junction.

LEARNING A TRADE.
The Danger of Making Specialist
 of a Beginner.

The Danger of Making Q Specialist
 of Beginner.
 It is generally to the interest of an employer that an apprentice should not learn his trade as a whole, but only a | little section of it, says Joseph Horner In Casters Magazine. It pays better to keep lad repeating the perform. ance of one section of his craft than to teach him all. More money is made. But the apprentice becomes a young specialist, prig in his teens, cocksure over some little piece of handicraft at which he may earn something over his normal wages, and many a lad does not become disillusioned until he has to face the world and try his luck in other shops.
 And therefore the best shops in which to place lad are not the big es- tablishments, but the small ones, where every class of work is done and where tools and appliances are often scant A lad will learn more in these than in those replete with every appliance and ninutly subdivided into sections and groups.
 The best training for a lad today is that which he can evolve for himself The greatest evil that can befall him Is to become q specialist and nothing more while in his teens. Yet that is what must happen if he spends several years tending machines or doing re petitive, unvarying tasks ill one big es. tablshment.
 The best training, therefore, today is that gathered by the peripatetic youth If lad cannot gain experience in one place, he should move about, gathering as much as he can accumulate with one firm, then on to another, and at- tending training schools as opportunity offers. His views become broadened, he becomes self reliant, and in time, having found his true work, he may settle down as specialist

Are Rounding Up To-day Preparatory
to the Final Struggle.
The county canvass closes today
and tomorrow the sovereign voters
OF Greene county will cast the decd-
ing vote on who is to be ths n 5minees
for the various offices.
The campaign has been spirited
one but the candidates have pulled
through it with little manifestation
of bad blood. The race for sheriff has
been exceptionally warm, yet the
friends Of the opposing candidates
have worked quietly With enthusiasm
and determination and each claims
the victory.
The race for county judge has been
exceedingly warm and no one can
tel! how it will terminate. There are
eight candidates. all Of them good
men, and each will receive q good
support.
There is q pretty race, too, for
treasurer, ogth Of the young men in
the race being popular and each
having strong following.
The race for circuit clerk, too, is a
mixed problem that can only be un-
raveled with the count OF the ballots
Much interest also centers in the
congressional race. Judge Taylor
and M. Parfish have been in the
county ali this week. Mr.. Parrish
has spoken at two appointments
where his opponent was not present
Halliday and Bethel. He spoke
at Halliday last night, haye walked
there from Marmaduke, a distance
Of seven miles.
The candidates spoke at Marma-
duke yesterday and were greeted
with the largest audience that has
