BLOOD CELLS.
IN DISEASE,
y IN HEALTH.

Man is a millionaire many times over IN
the possession of blood cells. Woman IS
not quite so rich, for scientists have proven
that the normal number of red blood cells
in adult men is FIVE million; in women four
and half million, to the square millimeter:
The normal cell is not absolutely round
in health, but, in disease, becomes ex-
tremely irregular in shape. Every one can
be in perfect health and possess the mil
lions of rich red blood corpuscles If they
only know how to go about it. DR.. K. V.
Pierce, consulting physician to the lnva-
lids Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buf-
falo, N. ", advises every man and woman
lures laws. In the first place, it your
digestion is faulty, and the food you
eat is not taken up by the blood and assim-
Hated properly, you need tonic and diges-
tive corrector, something that will increase
the red blood corpuscles; he believes in
going about this in natures own way;
Years ago, in his active practice, he found
that an Alternative extract OF certain heros
and roots. put up without the use of alco-
hol would put the liver, lungs and heart
into fuller and more complete action. This
medicine he called DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. By assimilating the
food eaten, it nourishes the blood, and, in
stead of the ill-shaped corpuscles, the per,
sons blood takes on rich red color ana
the corpuscles are more nearly round;
Nervousness is only the cry of the starved
nerves for food, and when the nerves are
fed on rich red blood the person loses
those irritable feelings, sleeps well at night
and feels refreshed in the morning.
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

Farmers, Institute

The ISLANDER expected to receive
the program of the farmers institute
in time for publication before this,
but for some reason it has not ar
rived, nor are we advised as to what
lecturers will be in attendance in adj
dition to c. l.. Smith. the well known
agricultural authority, who has been
doing very successful institute work
in this state for some months. OHe
other lecturer has been promised and
perhaps two. The Monday afternoon
and Tuesday morning meetings will
be held at Odd Fellows hall, while
the Tuesday afternoon meeting will
probably be at the court house. Ev-
cry farmer who can possibly attend
should arrange to do so.

was Cromwell of England. Milton was
drawn to write his immortal poem
