Keep your blood clean as you keep your
body clean. You don't wait until your
body is foul before you cleanse it.
1t is a matter of surprise that many peo-
pie who are so careful to have clean bodies
make no effort to keep the blood Clean
Everyone knows that uncleanness breeds
disease; that those who do not keep their
bodies in wholesome condition and who
dwell in filthy surroundings are the first 10
fall when some epidemic of disease sweeps
the country. But foul blood is more dan
gerous to the individual than foul body.
An unclean body is rather passive than
an active hindrance to health. But unclean
blood is an active threat against the very
life-it makes the body prepared breed
ing place for disease.
1t is part of Natures plan for human
safety that in many cases where the blood
Is impure or corrupt she sets sign on the
body in proof of the corrupt current that is
flowing through the veins. Scrofula with
its dishguring sores and scars, eczema with
its irritation, salt-rheunl, tetter, erysipelas,
boils, pimples and other eruptions are only
the outward signs of the impurity of the
blood. But often in the earlier or simpler
stages of the blood's impurity there are no
outward signs of this condition; only dull,
languid, sluggish feelings, which are COM
monty attributed solely to the sluggishness
of the liver.
OF all preparations. for purifying the
blood DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry easily takes the first place. 1t elimin-
ates from the blood the elements which
clog and corrupt it, and which breed and
feed disease. It acts directly on the blood
making glands, increasing their activity,
and SO increasing the supply of rich, pure
blood which is the life of the body.
Accept no substitute for rGolden Med.
ical Discovery" There is nothing rjust
ss good" for diseases of the stomach,
blood and lungs.

WHOLE NUMBER 1928.

Whenever an Indian captures an an
imal or a fish from which he believes
lie is descended he treats that animal
or fish with great respect and rever.
ence, apologizing for having to kill and
eat it, and by way of showing bis re-
gard. he most carefully sets aside all
the bones and refuse of the animal and
returns them to the water.
When this is done it is believed that
the captured animal or fish comes
back to life again.
Prof. Hill-Tous's contribution on
this subject is regarded by leading an
thropologists in Europe and America
as a most important one, and the
criticism and reviews have been very
complimentary to him. and the Royal
Society of England made special
grant to him in order that he might
continue his studies along these lines,
and he declares himself as more than
satisfied with his field work OF this
summer

HE WAS INUNDATED.

A New York city man is an appli.
cant for divor ce, states that once his
wife "kicked him 50 hard that he
never quite recovered from the effects" !"
and also that she tumiliated him in q
theater. On the latter point was this
testimony:
"Did you take your wife to the the
ater9"
"Many times"
"What happened at the theateri"
"Well, one night, while we we're in
the audience in Harlem music hall,
one OF the women performers asked !:
&c Is there any lady here who has never
been kissed?"
"What happened?"
"My wife stood up"
1t is not to be presumed for q min.
ute that the plaintiff would have
sought the divorce court simply be.
cause his wife playfully kicked him 80
hard that he has not yet recovered
from the effects, for the natural ques-
ton would have been asked him why
he did not kick back. There is no
evidence to show that he has but one
leg. He was probably perfectly able
to use his pedal extremities in admin.
istering to his wife some of her own
medicine. But what could he do in
return for her action in the theater?
There he was hopeless, crushed and
done for.
It is to be presumed that when she
stood up in response to the question Of
the lady performer every other lady in
the audience gazed on him with con.
tempt, and that the gentlemen laughed.
It is probable that he was humiliat.
ed. 1t showed him up as q lsggard in
love and q bastard in domestic war.
He must have been sadly mortified. to
say the least. Plainly, though the
divorce court is fast coming under re.
ligious disiavor, hers is . case which all
the moralities must admit to be one
for legal severance.

PEOPLE ONCE RULED IN RUSSIA
Decline Of Democracy Among the SIavs q
Lesson for American Students.
San Francisco Examiner.

san EfancleCO 6X6mlneT.
The cables the other day brought
the story Of q session OF the Russian
Zemstvo. A Zemstvo is sort OF dis.
trict council, but this meeting seems
to have delegates from the whole en-
pire. Tho cables further state that
"nothing approaching such a gather
ing has ever been permitted in Rus
sia."
The cable writer, or cable editor,
does not know history. The Slsv was
formerly q member of . Democratic
race. The government was ono in
which every individual had voice.
Before the Angles aud Saxons went
into Britain there were popular Slav
assemblies.
Procopius, q Byzantine historian Of
the sixth century, said: "From the
remotest period the Slavs were known
to live in democracies; they discussed
their wants in popular assemblies"
The Emperor Leo Of the Eastern
Empire, said: 1.-THE Slavs are a free
people, strongly opposed to any sub.
jection."
These popular assemblies were tur-
bulent. Laws were made by unani-
nous consent. Usually the meetings
were held in Novgorod, near bridge.
and the minority were thrown over
the bridge.
The story of the decline of democ-
racy and the growth of absolutism in
Russia is one of the remarkable chap
ters in the worlds history. 1t will
amply repay the student OF American
history if he gives it careful study.

Conflict Between Aldermen and Liquor
Commits oners.
Rutland News.

The opinion of City Attorney p. NJ.
Meldon that in Rutland this year-the
city having had one year of license and
then revoking the policy-the issuance of
druggists licenses is properly in the hands
of the board of aldermen is held by Sec
rotary of State +. c. Fleetwood who is
also bright lawyer The theory is that
under the conditions the authority of the
board of license commissioners Temporal
rily, at least, ceases. As the News has
stated before it will require a decision
of the supreme court to definitely settle
the point. Meanwhile. the license COM
missioners will probably grant a drug
gists' license, or two, and the two boards
will contest the question of their legal
