Because the liver is
neglected people suffer


4 with constipation. biliousness, Y
headaches and fevers. Colds attack
the lungs and contagious diseases
take hold Of the system. II is safe
TO say that If the liver we're always
kept in proper working order,
illness would be almost unknown.
Thedford's Black Draught is so
successful in curing such sickness
because IL is without rival as a
liver regulator. This great family
medicine is not a strong and
drastic drug, but a mild and
healthful laxative that cures con-
stipation and may be taken by q
mere child without possible
harm.
The healthful action on the liver
cures biliousness. 1t has an in
MIGRATING effect on the kidneys.
Because the liver and kidneys do
not work regularly, the poisonous
acids along with the waste from
the bowels get back into the blood
and virulent contagion results.
Timely treatment with Thed-
ford's Black-Draught removes the
dangers which lurk in constipation,
liver and kidney troubles, and will
positively forcstall the inroads of
Bright's disease, for which dis
ease in advanced stages there is
no cure. Ask your dealer for

Much Improvement.
Hark! Did you hear that tnud?


1t was the downfall of Young Murphy,
and with IT went part Of Sam SoIomons S
bankro1l and his hopes of having an
other good fighter for some time TO
come. All this happened last night
when Tommy Lowe put Murphy out of
business in less than one round before

more. The defeated mans seconds
threw up tba sponge after Lowe had
knocked him down four times and had
him practically helpless. If the sponge
had not appeared Referee Pat O'Connor
would have stopped the bout anyhow.
1t would be interesting to know when
Murphy began calling himself Young"
He is as baid-headed as Bob Fitzsim-
mons. and looks old enough to be the
barber who first took the down off
Methuselah's 5 boyish face. Despite the
has not acquired any knowledge OF the
nghtfng game, and was a dead one as
soon as he put up his hands. He had
neither ofTense nor defense worth men
tioning.
No Need for Haste.
Lowe started in right off the bat to
win, but It turned out there was no
necessity for such haste, as he could
have walked in his sleep and beaten the
man who claimed to be the ringer from
Chicago. Tommy put over some hard
rights to the jaw. but it was his left
which did most OF the work. and ne
cleanly fioored his man with it three
times.
The Washington boy showed that he is
a crack infghter, and the thIinps he
landed on the ribs Of Mr.. Murphy when
they came to a clineh would have made
even Kid Sullivan take notice. There
was a general Improvement in his work
ard it is safe to predict that if given
chance he will some day make a good
man.
Johnny OiConnor, now that Lowe has
shown his worth, will go right after
some men Of class for matches, and 1t
is prohabl that he viii be able to land
some, for Tommys reputation is spread

Dangers of snowslides.

NHarper'S Weekiy.A
Snowslides are most frequent on steep
mountains that have a heavy snowfall
with biliOwy train of SnOw-dust boil
ing out behind and overturning or crush
ing almost everything before they make
an awful and magnificent spectacle.
Their speed is sometimes so great that
trees alongside are overturned BY the
slide has violently disturbed
There are many Northumberland in
stances where miners have been caught
on the surface of a slide and by dexter
Gus use of their skis have kept on top of
the engulfing surface of the slide, and
come out uninjured- John Muir once
rode down from the high Sierra on a
snowslide. He was swished back down
in a minute over a distance that had
taken all day to climb. He says of this
ride: This flight in a milky way of
snowflowers was the most spiritual of all
my travels; and after many years, the
mere thought of it is still an exhilara-
ton.
One day while climbing up a steep
snowy slope a slide started beneath me-
and for time / was on the surface OF
its upper edge. where the snow was about
two feet deep. Wading a torrent will
give some idea of the sweep of the coast
ing snow. The SnOw-duSt steamed and
boiled up around me, and each time L
struggled TO my feet the rushing snow
simply Jerked my feet from beneath me.

To Keep Young.
(Chtcago NeWs.)

Keep in the sunlight; nothing beautiful
or sweet grows or ripens in the darkness.
Avoid fear in all its varied forms of
expression. II is the greatest enemy of
the human race.
Avoid excuses of all kinds. They are
injurious. The long life must be a tenn
perate, regular life.
Don't live to eat, but eat to live Many
of our ills are due to overea ting. to eat
ing the wrong things and TO irregular
eating.
Don't allow yourself TO think. on your
birthday, that you are a year older and
so much nearer the end.
Never look on the dark side Take
sunny views OF everything. A sunny
thought drives away the shadows
Be a child; live simply and naturally
and keep clear OF entangling alliances
and complications Of all kinds.
Cultivate the spirit of cOntentment: all
discomfort and dissatisfaction bring age
burrows prematurefy to the face
Form a habit of throwing off before
going to bed at night all the cares and
anxieties Of the day-everything wnlch
can possibly cause mental wear and tear
or deprive you of rest.
