Keeps the Doctor Away

Learn to eat apples regularly. You
are eating mallic acid, the property
that makes buttermilk so healthful.
You are eating gallo acid, one OF the
most necessary elements in human
economy. You are eating sugar in its
most assimilable form, combined with
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen caught
and imprisoned from the sunshine.
You are eating albumen in its most
available state. You are eating gum
allied to the fragrant medical gums Of
Araby." And you are eating phos-
phorus in the only form in which it is
available as the source OF all brain and
nerve energy. In addition to all these
you are drinking the purest OF water
and eating the most healthful and de-
sirable fiber for the required rough
ness" in food elements. The acids OF
the apple diminish the acidity OF the
stomach and prevent and cure dyspep-
STA. They drive out the noxious mat
tiers that cause skin eruptions, and thus
are natures most glorious complexion
makers. They neutralize in the
blood any of the deleterious elements
that poison the brain and make it slug
gish. The contained PHOSPHORUS is
not only greater than in any other form
of food, but is presented in shape
for immediate use by the brain and
nerves, where it may flash into great
thoughts and great deeds. The an
clients assigned the apple as the food
for the gods, and its juices the am
brosial nectar to which they resorted
to renew their youth. Men are the
gods of today and the apple is their
royal food, the magic renewer of youth.
Eat a rich, ripe apple every day and
you have disarmed all diseases OF half
their terror. Selected.

A Prediction Worth Watching

Postmaster General Hitchcock be-
lieves that the government can save
SO, 100000 year out Of the amount
paid the railroads for carrying the mails.
His previous experience in effecting
economics that are tending to trans
form deficit into a surplus gives the
opinion the nature Of prediction. -

Degrees of Heat

Nearly six inches Of snow on the

ia degrees of heat at Salina, Kan,

Feared Burial Alive.

The dread Of premature burial
haunted Harriet Martineau. who
would certainly not be classed as
fanciful person. and she bequeathed
FLO to her doctor to see that her body
was decapitated before burial. Ed
mund Yates In his will stipulated that
his jugular vein should be severed
and left EGO to pay for the operation.
Lady Burton took even stronger pre-
cautions. She enjoined that her heart
should be pierced with q needle before
any steps were taken TO certify her
death and that her body should after
ward be submitted to postmortem
examination. - London Chronicle.

We have seen a light-minded bull
spend hours trying to break into the
next field, and after leaving large sec
tions OF his hide on the barbed wire
fence find the grass not half so good as
it was in the old pasture.
Some of the stars that feck the rosy
depths OF yonder skies are said by as
tronomers TO be wanderers through
space, but every star that hecks our flag
is fixed planet.

Come all We people and listen to me
While a story relate,
OF an incident that happened
On a Saturday of late.
It happened on the sidewalk,
In the center of our town,
Just as the day was closing
And evening began to dawn.
AS a lady who was out calling
Was going home that night,
Who should take pains to follow her
But a man with a head all in
white.
He whistled and whistled and whis-
tied,
Again and again and again,
But the more he whistled and shout
ed,
The faster from him she ran.
He shouted Hold on there I want
you'
But shouted all in vain
For before he could catch up with
She had reached her home again.
. Now, the citizens of Glover
Must look out what they do or
say,
For, if they are not pretty careful,
Up in the cooler they'll stay.

Recalls Disappearance of Ten Years Ago.
The appointment of James Duffy of
Burlington, administrator in the es-

calls the disappearance Of the latter
in New York city over 10 years ago.
Michael Duffy, at the time of his
disappearance, was employed at the
Fifth Avenue hotel in New York.
One day he went out of the hotel on
some errand and was never seen
again. The police of New York were
notified and every effort was made to
find the young man, but without avail
The father spent hundreds of dollars
in the search. Duffy. who was only
about 81 years old, was a model son
and not only wrote regularly to his
family but visited them often. Before
going to New York he had been en-
ployed at the Van Ness house in Bur-
Iington. The date of his disappear
ance was May 10, 1899. The young
man had an account at the Burlington
Savings bank and hence it was neces-
sary to have an administrator legally
appointed to take charge of the estate.

posed the bill on the floor of the
house because there had been only "a

come from his Committee without rec

to injure the cause by an adverse re-
port. He stated on the floor that the
bill if passed should also carry a pro-
vision abolishing offsets. During the
interview he stated squarely that he
would be in favor of bill placing a
small fiat rate on intangibles, carrying
with it the adjustment OF all offsets,
thus putting himself on record as
standing for the tax reform recon
