AOELIr1ITATION.

There is a growing sentiment which precludes old age from enjoying the benefits of choice positions in the bus mess world. Youth is everywhere pre- ferred. In this respect Electric Bitters is different. It benefits old and young alike. Rev c. J. Budlongof Ashaway, R. I. writes, "I want everybody to know what Electric Bitters is. It cured me of jaundice and liver trouble from which l suffered for years. It's a great tonic and nervine and cures liver, kidney and stomach troubles" Only soc and guaranteed by R. H.

THE TRUANCY OFFICER IS A BUSY
 MAN THESE DAYS.
OUT-OF-DOOR SPORTS OFFER UNUSUAL ATTRACTIONS FOR YOUNG AMERICA AN OFFICERS EXPERIENCE.

With the first warm days there is large increase in the number of absen- tees from the public schools and just now the truancy officers have their hands full looking after the y oungsters who have yielded to the superior attrac- tions of out-of-door sports and have de- serted the schoolroom. MT Jesse L. Heefner, who lives at No. Ill East Pike street, Goshen, Ind, is truant officer of Elkhart county, and can relate many in- teresting experiences. One of them should be of value to every reader of this paper. He says: "Last year was so much run down in health that was hardly able to keep on my feet and it was not until I took Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People that began to feel like myself again. All my strength seemed to have left me. I was languid and without ambition, my appetite failed, my kidneys became affected and my stomach got out of order. Doctors did not do me any good and I kept fai ing in health and strength until de- spared of ever getting we'll again. Then I decided to try Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. They helped me very quickly and, after short time, I became we'll and strong again. I am out in all sorts of weather but have not experienced any return of the symptoms of my old trouble since Dr Williams Pink Pills cured me-
 The best tonic medicine in the world is Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, MT Heefner is only one out of thousands all over the world who have found this out by personal experience. This medicine, unlike any other, acts both on the blood and nerves, builds up the system and cures where ordinary medicines fail. Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are not only tonic but have cured such diseases as locomo- tor attain, partlal paralysis, St Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism nervous headache, the after-effects of the grip, pale and sallow complications, and all forms of weakness in either male or female.
 | Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are sold by all dealers or will be sent postpaid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.5O, by addressing pr Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y. They are never sold in bulk, by the dozen or hundred. Avoid limitations; substi- tutes never cured anybody.

LOW-SHOE DAYS.

The eagerness with which men rush into low shoes as soon as the sun be- gins to warm the earth is the best in- dication of the hold the low-shoe hab- it has on men in general. Naturally some get intolo shoes too early and pay the price in colds, if nothing worse. But most men are willing to wait for settled weather such as we are now having to don their Oxfords. Meigs S Co.report a gratifying demand for low shoes this season, and say the styles they are showing are meeting with great favor. Both the Butcher and button Oxford are new this sea- son, and already they are strong rivals for popular favor These styles come in patent colt and enamel, and being Zenith" shoes they fit properly from heel to toe. Many other styles are shown by Meigs & Go. in Oxfords and shoes, all at popular prices.

 For the farmers the drouth i, be coming very serious. 1t is the critica' period for the hay crop as we'll as for early pasturage. Many fields and sec tions are beginning to turn brown and die. Crops recently planted as we'll as those yet implanted have but little prospect of germination without rain. The ground is 50 very dry noth- ing but large amout will be of much benefit to the grass crop. Winter grain will soon be seriously affected as rye is very near the blooming point. Oats are making slow growth, late sown, hardly any, ground naturally wet is baked hard enough to bear quite load, making tin worse con- dition than that which is more pli- able.
