I looked cordially mystified at the last term

Passing around the bluff, we came to the

of which a gang of men were hammertng

And the nitroglycerine? What is that

"Nitroglycerine is formed when pure gly-

Leaving the office, struck out toward a

The Mammoty. and the MOSQUITO

What has come to pass in thousands of
years seems hardly credible. Primitive
man, weakling in comparison to modern
man, was able to conquer the huge mon
sters of thousands of years ago, such as
the Mammoth, and to-day they are dead
forever; yet the mosquito and fy have
never been conquered. It 10 now time
for the scientist to devise methods for kill
ing the mosquito and hv, 90 that they will
go to join the mammoth and the monster
lizards. The mosquitoes and flies are dam
gerous enemies Of man because they spread
contagion. The mosquito often carries the
germ of malaria with his bite. The house.
hy spreads germs of disease over our food.
These bacterial germs, ever hunting for
the weak spot, find place in our blood,
and then we suffer from grip, catarrh, con-
sumption, or malaria
clan to the Iuvalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y, says: uThere
would be no grip epidenics, the germs of
consumption, or malaria would find no
place in the human economy, if the blood
were pure. if the lungs, heart and other
should not be allowed to accumulate in the
body; to be safe it is best to take a gentle
laxative at least once a week" Such a
vegetable laxative as DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets contains nothing which could harm
the system.

tissue-builder and tonic for those weakened
by coughs, colds, catarrh, grip, nothing will
build one up quicker than Dr. Pierce's
