tion get a bottle Of Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure and see how quickly it will cure
you. Geo. A. Thompson, of Spencer,

twenty years. My case was almost
hopeless. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure was
recommended and I used a few bot
ties of it and it is the only thing
that has relieved me. Would not be
without it. Have doctored with To-
cal physicians and also at Chicago,
and even went to Norway with hopes
of getting some relief, but Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure is the only remedy
that has done me any good. and l
heartily recommend it. Every per-

HE COMMITTED SUICIDE
Hans Peterson, Former Resident
Killed Himself Dec. z, Out in
Washington State.

Nearly all Of the older residents
will remember Hans Peterson, who
used to live on the south side, but
about a year ago moved out to Lang
ley, Wash.
Information has just been received
from Mrs. Peterson that her husband
committed suicide on Dec. I. She
stated that on that day she went in
to the country to spend the day with
a friend and on her return in the
evening when she entered the house
she found her husband lying on the
floor with a bullet hole in his temple.
She could givs no reason why the
act was committed, unless it was
sickness and worry on his part over
her enfeebled condition. Since his
in Langley he has been
a temperate life.

inhabitants, can only be guessed by
comparison with animal nature on his
small sphere of ours. More important
to us is a knowledge of ourselves.
wKNow T%HYSELF" was an old Greek
thought. How to take care of ones

the human mechanism is a wonderful
thing and requires watching.
One man who has done more to teach
the American people how to care for their
bodies than almost any other, is DR.. X. ".
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. ", the Author of the
~Common Sense Medical Adviser" He
says 1t is not the quantity of the food
flor some people can keep strong on a very
meagre diet), but it is how much food is
absorbed and assimilated by the blood and
carried to nourish every organ of the body.
1t is, therefore, vitality necessary for the
body that the stomach be in a healthy
state. If disease of the stomach, or what is
called stomach trouble" prevents proper
nutrition then the heart, liver, lungs, and
kidneys &C not get proper food-they are
not fed on rich red blood, and in conse-
quence, begin to show signs of distress.
Outwardly these signs may be pimples
and eruptions on skin. pale face. sleepless
of the nerves not being fed on pure blood,
they become starved, aud we receive a
uarning in the pain we call neuralgia.
Rheumatism, too, is a blood disease. After
years of practice and study DR.. Pierce
found that an Alternative Extract, which he
named rDr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery,r made from the extracts of several
plants. invariably produced a tonic effect
upon the system. 1t helped the process of
absorption of the healthy elements in the
food and increased the red corpuscles of
the blood, as we'll as eliminated the poisons
from the system.

An Interesting Feature.

Another interesting feature of the
closing Of the fall term of the Univer-
sity was the elocution recital which

deep appreciation OF the work Of the

following excellent program was
rendered:
Piano solo, "Scherzo vaIse," Mis-.

The Dilema, Miss Branch.
Death Of Paul Dombey, Mrs. Rowley.

FABLES.
ION MoNol m T0pska Man-Breels

There was once q man who was
full Of theories. he also had con-
fdence in the same and was vii.
ling to put them into practice.
One Of his pet theories was that
he could look any dog out Of
cOuntenance, and that II be once
got hig optic fixed on the canine
that there was no danger Of being
bitten. He had never tried the
theory, but be was convinced that
il was all right, and he was will

sion he was called on to visit a
house that was guarded by a low
proved bull dog who looked as If

something when he was young aud
never got over it, and as a result
had become misanthrOpic and pes
simistic in his views. On this
particular day none Of the people
were at home, which fact made
the dog more unsocial than he
would have otherwise have been.
When the man of theory enter
ed the yard the dog advanced with
q grOwl. The man fixed his eye
steadily on him, but the theory
didn't seem to work for some rea-
son. On the contrary, the fact
that the man stopped and stared
at him seemed to make the canine
rather more hostile. He made a

upon him. When the man real
lied that the eye business would

left with the dog as memOntOes of
his visit, one tail of his cutaway
coat, half the bosom Oihis pants and
enough round steak for moderate
breakfast.
Moral: Theory is all right until
you get up against the real thing,
and then somehow it isn't worth

A doctor determined that he
would do something toward re-
forming the nomenclature Of his
profession. His notion was that
in describing diseases he would
nse simple, plain language that
everybody could understand. He
set up in business in a good town
and waited for customers. One
day a patient called and said he
wasn't feeling good and wanted
the doctor to tell him what was
the matter. The doctor made an
examination and then in plain,
simple language told the patient
his trouble. The man looked dis.
satisfied, but said nothing and
went away. A little after he met
a neighbor who asked him where
he had been.
"Oh, l was up to see the new
doctor and asked him what he
supposed was the matter with
me-"
"Well, how does be strike
youf"
"Don't think he knows a tarnal
thing about medicine" said the
other. "Why, he went on talkin'
about what allied me and used Ian
guage that any common plug could
understand. Shucks; he don't
talk no more scientific language
than you or me-"
Moral: Many people are Of the
opinion that what they don't I'M
derstand must necessarily be wis
dom.

A man who had been careless
about his spiritual welfare all his
life lived near a man whose fad
was learning to play on a violin.
The man couldn't play a lick, but
he supposed that he could, and
that all he needed was practice in
order to rival the best Of the cele-
brated viOlinists. Finally the
worldly man concluded hat it was
time for him to be preparing for
the future world. He went to a
minister Of the Gospel and asked
him to explain bis theory Of theOl-
Ogy and describe the glOries Of the
future existence. "YOu WILL"
