Bad Stomach Makes
Bad Blood.

You can not, make sweet butter in a
foul, unclean churn. The stomach serves
as a churn in which to agitate, work up
and disintegrate our food as it is being
digested. If it be weak, sluggish and
foul the result will be torpid, sluggish
liver and bad, impure blood.
The ingredients of DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery are just such as best
serve to correct and cure all such de-
rangements. It is made up without
drop of alcohol in it's composition; chem
ically pure, triple-reflned glycerine being
used instead of the commonly employed
alcohol. Now this glycerine is of itself a
Gus agent like alcohol, especially in the
cure of weak stomach, dyspepsia and the
various forms of indigestion. Prof. Finley
Ellingwood, M. D., of Bennett Medical
College, Chicago, says of it:
rIn dyspepsia it it serves s a.. an exc excellent pur-

When combined, in Just the right proper

Black Cherry bark, Queens root, Blood
root and Mandrake root, or the extracts of
these, as in DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, there can be no doubt of it's
great efficacy in the cure of all stomach,
liver and intestinal disorders and derange-
ments. These several ingredients have

There is deducted from the pay Of

cents every month for the maintenance
of the Soldiers home in Washington.
Very few soldiers stay in the army till
they are eligible for the home, and
there is a growing conviction that the

great deal Of trouble to the paymasters
and being quite superhuOus, as the in'
stitutiOn has already accumulated a
fund of $4OO0,OOO, which is drawing
$125.0O0 of interest, and the remission
of this tax is now strongly urged. One
reason not mentioned for abOlishing the

The French nobility is exactly twice
as numerous now as it was before the
great revolution Of lis years ago, which
was aimed at the aristOcracy and by
which all titles Of nobility were abOl-
ished. Previous to that time there were
23S French princes and dukes; today
there are AGO. At the beginning Of the
nineteenth century there were In all
5000 titled persons in France, among
whom less than 10000 had legal right
to a coat Of arms. There are now in the
thirty-third year of the third republic
100000 individuals duly possessed OF
patents Of nobility. At the time when
the nobility was all powerful In France

All Of their % points except the four
for these two goals were made from
fouls thrown by LOCkhaTJ who hardly
missed a throw.
One could hardly pick out the stars
on the Classical School team. All
played well. The quick work of the
forwards netted them Is points from
field goals. The good work of guards
is shown by the fact that only four
out Of a score of p came from field
throws.

ment was a game between the Y. NJ.

This game also resulted in a victory
for the P. c. s. by a score of 10 to y.
