son rrankI,n's Keenness.

Two incidents recall the keeDness
and the thoroughness-the great twin
abilities, to see and to utiize--of Ben
Franklin. One day he CHANGED to OBJ
serve 4 lady in the possession of an
imported whisk broom. With his usual
interest and careful consideration he
examined it as novelty. He discov-
cred on the brush of the broom Il seed,
which he carefully removed. Present
~ lie planted it, and the growth from
this seed was the first crop Of broom
corn in this country. Again one day
when DR.. Franklin was walking by
Dock creek he saw stuck in the mud
a wickerwork basket, which had sprout-
ed. Carefully he fished out the basket
and carefully took it apart. He gave
cuttings to his friend Charles Norris,
who planted the twigs in his garden,
where they grew TO great size. They
turned ont to be yellow willows and.
as Franklin had foreseen, proved OF
great commercial value.

Woman,s Beauty No Secret

II all lies in the care she bestows
upon herself and in keeping at bay
those dread ills peculiar to her sex.
The flashing eye. the elastic step and
the clear complexion never accom-
pany organic troubles. The distress
ed expression, lasitude, headaches
and mental depression are only the
tell tale symptoms. Women so
troubled should take Lydia Z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. that
simple remedy made from roots and
herbs and restore their health to a
normal condition.

Did GU know that during the past
eight years 116,S00 saloons have
gone out of business in the United
States? This is an average OF 40 'sa-
looms per day. That tells the story
of the way in which restrictive meas
ures are operating in almost all parts
of the country. No wonder that the
manufacturers and dispensers of al
coholic beverages are becoming
alarmed over the strength of the TEN
perance sentiment to be found today
in all ranks of society, including
some of the most serious-minded men
who do not usually follow will-o-
the-wisp. One outspoken brewer
may have voiced the sentiment of
others who felt that silence was
more discreet when, at a convention
the other day, he declared that the
closing up of the liquor business in
this country was only matter Of
time. ADV.
