more classical numbers, the blame

there is any blame in the matter. A

Held's secrets of success. Lovers of

their solicitude applies more to theo-

Held is quite right in keeping his eye

Milk for babes but meat for men,"
When a man can no more eat a mans
food, but exists on milk and cracker
diet he is gone back to babyllood. He
may be big man but he has baby's
stomach.
Success in life depends largely on the
stomach. The man with the babyx
stomach finds himself also with babyis
Peevishness and peIversity. He has the
baby's exaggerated personal sensitive
to his friends and all anxiety to his
family. No man can be stronger than
his stomach. A weak stomach argues a
weak man. And uweak" stomach is
the common starSing point of most Of
the so-called weaknesses which affect
the great organs heart, lungs, liver,
kidneys, etc. How can it be otherwise
WHEN the body and all its organs are
dependent on the stomach for their
nutrition? The uweak" stomach dfags
the organs down with it, because being
weak it is unable to convert food into
nutrition, and the organs of the body
being starved, Of necessity become weak,
as a consequence of starvation.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. 1t
makes the weak body strong in the only
way physical strength can be made,
which is by food, properly digested and
assimilated. The cures of rweak lungs,
"weak" heart, uweak" or sluggish liver,
"weak" kidneys. ETC., which follow the
use of "Golden Medical Discovery" are
all due to this perfect nutrition of the
body, the proof Of which is the remark
able gain of sound, solid flesh, which
invariably marks the cure.

A TICKLE IMMIGRANT.

Hcr Experience with Two Lovers at
Uncle Sans barge ONCE.
There seem 70 be manifold oppor-
tunities among tie immigrants coming
to America on shipboard for falling in
love, particularly on the slower steam
ers, when people are thrown together
for u period Of from II to IS days"
says John Gilmer Speed in Ainslee's.
I'm this case u worthy young Russian
was cheated out Of very pretty bride
by n likely Italian fellow traveller Of
the maiden. Strangely enough, she
knew not one word Of Italian nor he
q word Of Russian, yet the brides
countryman was Tilted. and the panto-
mime lovers were married and set
forth gayly and confidently to learn
each other and the great new world
they had entered at one and the same
time.
another case was equally ludlcrous.
A Swedish maiden Of somewhat tickle
mind fell in love with a fellow voy-
ager without apprising him Of the fact
that she was betrothed to another man
whom she was to meet ut the barge
office and marry. 1t was her intention
to hurry ashore with her new lover
and outwit the former by a prior cere-
mony. but the red tape Of the office
prevented that. and the first lover came
to welcome his bride. She then as
promptly fell in love with No. /. But
when No. 2 pleaded and threatened,
she could not decide which one she
loved the better, SO she was detained
while the two men haunted the barge
Office. glaring Mt each other. .
"When the detention time had elaps-
ed, the bride. still not knowing her
mind, was sent unceremoniously back
on the same steamer that brought her
over, both Tilted lovers abandoning the
field in despair. But on arriving on
her native soil once more the maiden
dared not face her people, so back she
came, having Just money enough to
pay her passage, and sent for lover No.
!, declaring that she loved him the bet
ter. He replied that he was very much
obliged. but as he had already married
q handsomer girl In the interval he was
compelled to decline to come for her.
The maiden then sent word to No. to
like effect, but he declared that he had
had enough Of the ficklefeminine. and
thus In defeat the maiden was trans
ported back again to face the leers and
ieers of her native hamlet"
