In late years men have made fortunes out
of the tallings Of gold mines. The mills in
which the ore formerly was crushed and the
crude processes then in uAe allowed a large
percentage of the precious metal to escape,
and that loss amounted in some cases to a
fortune. The stomach Is just like a stamp
mill in this respect, that when it is not in
perfect order it all ows the escape and waste
of the precious nufriment contained in the
food. That loss when continuous means
the loss OF mans greatest fortune,-health.
Science offers remedy for this condition in
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
corrects the weakness of the stamach,
prevents waste and loss of nourishment, and
puts the stomach and organs Of digestion
and nutrition into a condition OF health
which enables them to save and assimilate
all the nutriment contained in the food
which is eaten. In all cases Of constipation
she use of Dr.. Pierces Pleasant Pellets will
speedily and permanently cure the disease.

In Kentucky There is Woe and

Man born in the wilds of Kentucky
is of feud days and easy virtue. He
fisheth, fiddleth, cusseth and fighteth

When he desireth to raise hell, he
planteth neighbor, and 10, he reap

He riseth ever from the cradle to
seek the scalp of his grandsire's ene-
my and bringeth home in his carcass
the ammunition of his neighbor's wife g
cousin s uncle g father.in-law who
avengeth the deed.
Yea, verify, bis life is uncertain and
he knoweth not the hour when he
may be jerked hence.
He goeth forth on journey half
shot and cometh back on shutter
shot.
He riseth in the night to let the cat
out and it taketh nine doctors three
days to pick the buckshot from the
person. lS
He goeth forth in joy and in glad
ness and cometh back in scraps and
fragments.
ecalleth his fellow-man liar and
be getteth himself filled with scrap

A cyclone bloweth him into the bo-
som of his ncighbOr's wife and his
neighbor's wife's husband bloweth
him into the bosom of Father Abrs-

He emptieth ademijohn into him

his enemy's son ,lieth in wait on elec-

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. {" Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott sEmulsionisth themod-
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined Of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
Of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.
