A Fruitariau Diet.

4 fruitarian diet consists of the
fruits of trees like apples, oranges,
bananas and olives, the fruits of
bushes like currants and raspber-
ries), the fruits of plants like straw
berries and melon, lentils and beans
and cucumbers). the fruits of grasses
(like wheat and barley and maize and
oats), the fruits of nut trees (from
filberts to cocoanut), together with
some earth fruits like potatoes), and
a modicum of vegetables and salads.
To these may be added butter. milk,
honey and cheese, although their pro-
duction is not so free from risk of
contamination and animal infection as
Is the case with the products of the
vegetable kingdom and the world of
fruits. Grown under healthy condi-
tions, with diseased specimens easy
to detect and remove. it is far more
possible to live healthy and well upon
fruitarian dietary than upon the
products of the slaughter house.

A Lazy Liver

May be only a tired liver, or a starved
liver. It would be a stupid as well as
savage thing to beat weary or starved
man because he Jagged in his work. So
In treating the tagging, torpid liver it is
a great mistake 10 lash it with strong
drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an
indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled
body whose organs are weary with over
work. Start with the stomach and allied
organs of digestion and nutrition. Put
them in working order and see how
quickly your liver will become active.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
has made many marvellous cures OF liver
trouble" by its wonderful control OF the
organs OF digestion and nutrition. Il re-
stores the normal activity Of the stomach,
increases the secretionS of the blood-mak-
ing glands, cleanses the system from poi
sonous accumula lions, and so relieves the
liver of the burdens imposed upon it by
the detection Of other organs.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.

man, fishes are not such bad weather
prophets.
IF storm is approaching the fish
stop biting and they won't bite again
until the storm is we'll over. They ap-
pear to know when Il storm is coming
and when it has really passed.
And to fishermen and farmers living
along the shore, fish foretell the near
approach of cold weather Hours be-
fore it comes fishes leave the shallow
waters inshore and seek deeper water,
which in its depths will stay warm
and keep an equable temperature after
the shallower and surface waters have
turned cold.

Law VIII Recognize Joint Rate.

The interstate commerce commission
made several rulings under the new rate,
one of which involves the recognition OF
the joint rate between common carriers
on interstate business Copies of such
rates must be hereafter fled with the com.
mission. Whenever the joint rate between
two points is higher than the sum OF
the local rates between them the joint
rate must be reduced to the sums of the
locals on one DAYS notice. The commits
sion does not construe the law as pre-,
venting the carrier from giving free trans
portation to persons travelling over It's line
solely for the purpose Of attending to its
business, nor from giving free passage tc
the household of an employee who is re-
quired to move from one place to another,
nor from giving passes to contractors.
The reduced rate to clergymen is not to
apply to members of their families. and
free carriage is not to be given to gov.
Crnment or navy officers.
