One Woman Among the Thousands.

We received a letter from Way cross, Ga, from a woman who had been troubled with female com plaint for a long time, until she was reduced 10 almost a shadow. It effected her mind, she could not remember anything, would get con- fused and so nervous and irritable she could hardly sleep. She de- scribed her case as one similar to thousands of other women, and then ends the letter by saying she had gained IS lbs. last month and never felt better in her life, having no trace of her former troubles, slept we'll and ate her meals with a relish. She commenced the use of Dr. Gunn's Blood and Nerve Tonic just six weeks before she wrote the letter from which we copy tfe above. The tonic is in tablet form. and should be taken right after meals. It turns the food you eat into strong, rich blood, feeding the nerves and curing disease by mak ing healthy flesh. Sold by all drug gists for 75c per box, or 3 boxes for $2. Pale, weak, thin people should use this Tonic. For sale at the c. A. Cover Drug Co.

The Lie of the Hair.

Habits of q given animal can be
traced in the variations of the hair cur
rents, which bear very distinct rela-
tons to it's habits of life. The sloth,
for example, which, as Sydney Smith
remarked, spends its life, like young
curate distantly related to bishop, in
state of suspense, has uniform
downward tendency Of hair slope.
Then the complicated movements of
fuminants have resulted in more
complex series of meeting and oppos-
ing currents of hair.
In man himself the general practice
Of combing and tying up the hair has
left its undoubted traces. 1t is not
without interest to learn that out of a
hundred persons thirteen part their
hair on the right side, nine in the mid
die and seventy weight on the left. AS a
consequence the infant, guiltl,ss of
partings, nevertheless shows indica-
tons of these three fashions in CORE
spending proportions.

Thought Negroes immortal.

The simple minded natives of His
PAMELA imagined that the negroes, who
were imported in droves as slaves from
western Africa by the companions or
immediate followers OF Columbus
were immortal. The black man was q
novelty to these West Indian islanders,
and their belief arose from the fact
that the negroes were never seen to
suffer from any natural infirmity, such
as affected the white man and the
islanders themselves. The American
climate agreed with them better than
their own unhealthy Guinea, and from
their remarkable vigor and extraor-
binary longevity the Indians not un-
naturally concluded that they were i'm
mortal. For a long time they saw OF
heard Of none who died. except an
criminals at the hands Of Spanish exc
cutioners, and so they believed tnat
the only way to put an end to a negroes
life was to hang him. I

Who Should he Admitted to Member
ship In the Order.
ii. L. Cook, well known member
of the Order and farmers institute
lecturer, has a very time y article in
the Tribune Farmer of recent date on
the influence Of the grange and who
should constitute its membership:
We are frequently met by the propo-
sition, To what extent may other
occupations and professions be adj
mitted? 1 took occasion recently to
say at our grange meeting in the pres
ence Of so called professional men that
the primary function of the Order was
social, ethical and civic uplift; that SO
long as one-third of our population
was agricultural there rested upon
this Order more than the burden Of
purely agricultural matters, and that
its influence should reach out and inn
pregnate the life of our small country
towns-aye, even the anterior rural cities
of the land, that are largely dependent
upon country blood for municipal de-
velopment-and that we welcomed
these men and women from other
walks of life who came with thought,
culture and proper conception Of
home and civic duty to our ranks, SO
long as the leadership, inspiration, in
fuence and guiding light came from
the farmer and the farm home. Such
assimilation with the farmer-the host
lis sure to lead the town man to great
er charity for others and blessing to
himself.
The grange passed through period
of slouShing off this professional and
mercantile acquisition twenty-five
years ago, because those men sought
to make the Order subservlent to their
own selfish interests. The farmers had
not at that time, however developed
that ability for leadership manifest
now. If the farm influence is again
permitted to give way to foreign ma
nipulation then is our fate sealed and
q period of decay must again prevail.
The moment this outside influence APP
pears as speck upon the horizon unit
ed effort from the farmers must raze it
to the earth, never to rise again. J.
have seen the powerful influence Of
the grange during the legislative sea-
son just closed as never before. Are
we strong enough to maintain this eff
fective ascendency and continue our
present growth?
Only astute and discerning leader
ship will enable us to answer in the
affirmative. State and national grange
meetings will have to be engineered
away from the purely social and good
fellowship side of the proposition and
come to deal with problems from the
cold business point of view. There
must be strong men at the helm, ca
pable of good Judgment first and then
the character and stamina to hold fast,
not swerving from tire course.

1t was jest pure and simple that
brought about the war between Eng
land and France in 1887 and ultimately
cost the great William his life. Will
liam, of course, was great in more
senses than one. SO stout was he in
fact by reason Of his idle and luxurious
life that he could not walk from place
to place, but had to be carried. One
day his contemporary, Philip Of
France, delicately remarked at dinner
that William was like q fillet Of beef
on casters and ought to be exhibited at

liam heard Of this and in q furious
rage ordered his troops to invade at
once. This was done, and war COM
menced which ended in the English
king being thrown from his horse and
killed while experimenting the siege
of Nantes.

IN JAPAN.

Days of Welcome.

There the New Year Has Three
Days of Welcome.
Japan is the jolliest country in the
world at New Years. 1t is three times
Jolly. in fact Each Jan. 100000
subjects in the Land of the Rising Sun
begin to paint the mikado's empire the
glorious roseate hue of the imperial
emblem. This deep red harmony, they
say, is eminently fitting at the begin
ming of the year, and that the painting
may be well done they administer
three distinct and separate coats right
lavishly.
The bottom or foundation coat is two
full weeks in putting on. Joy flows in
streams along the thoroughfares,
eNeiled by rivulets from every house.
All the city folk call on each other; ali
the country folk come in to help them
do it. and everybody gives everybody
presents. This may be called the Off
cial New Years. 1t dates only from
1870, when the Japanese government
changed its calendar to conform with
/ there is a second coating, the New
Years of old Japan, still dear to the
rural heart. All the country folk call
on one another, and the city folk go
out to help them. There is less formal
ity about this and less eclat, but good
fellowship abounds and joy is rampant
for week
The third coating is given in good old
Chinese style. Its date depends on the
moon, as does our Easter festival.
Each household celebrates by itself in
part ana in part with outside friends,
but this feast is more domestic, though
not less sacredly observed, than the
two preceding.
The New Year season is the time to
see Japan socially at It's best. 1t is
true there are no kiklI. as they call
chrysanthemums, nor cherry blossoms.
The kiku is in the fall and the sakura
in the spring, both seasons when all
outdoors is Il garden party and eXqui-
sitely picturesque; but. with all its
loneliness, it is only the outside one
sees then.

of Japan one must be there on New
Years. Business generally is suspend
ed, both private and public. All is wide
open then, and hospitality such as is
unknown in Europe or America is the
rule without exception.
The jinrikisha cody is the only one
that works. but his task hardly is irll-
some. Waiting, he feasts in the kitch-
ell with the cook while his fare makes
a call.
The geisha has her busiest season at
New Years, but her work is ali play,
which she enjoys quite Us lnuch as
those whom she entertains. Her plain
tive love songs are never sung more
sweetly th0n ut the beginning of the
year, when the heart of the nation
warns anew. The geisha is near that
heart and chirrups sympathetically.
The emperor and the empress receive
for three days. On the first day only
those of royal blood, the highest Off
GERS of state and foreign diplomats
make their bows. Then follow in turn
personages Of less degree. These re-
ceptlons are extremely formal, and ev-
cry one connected with them is glad
they continue only three days.-Chica-

New Years in France Is a greater

now fallen almost into disuse, is still

prominently, add to the gayety Of the

1t Is now expected that the Grand Isle
county court house and Jail will be ready
for the January term OF county court,
as the work is now fast nearing compile
ton. The building has been enclosed for
some time, and the mechanics are now
finishing up their work. The building,
which is of stone. is known as the old

structure The upper story is to be used
as the court room. while on the lower
floor will be two cells, which will con-
stitute the Jail and the grand jury
room and other rooms will also be on
this floor.
Two years ago a bill was passed by
the Legislature creating a tax not to
exceed twenty cents on the dollar AZ
ter the work had been carried on on the
building for some time. it WAS found
that this appropriation would not be suf-
fcent to complete the work. According
ly Senator Juan Robinson of South Hero
introduced a bin in the present Legisla-
ture creating an extra tax not to eX-
coed thirty cents on the dollar. This bill
was passed and signed by the governor.
