Many Human Ills Are Due
To Impurities in the Blood
Pure Rich Red Blood Nourishes the Body and Fights of
Disease
Waste Podpts Impurities Many Forms of Rheumatism
Skin Disorders and Lowered Vitality


Your system is continually taking
in nutrition and throwing off waste
products. This process goes on all
during life. But, sometimes the or.
gans do not properly function and
these waste products, instead of pass
ing out through the pores Of the skin,
through the kidneys and through the
alimentary canal, are absorbed in the
blood. Then the blood becomes pois.
oned, and cannot properly nourish the
system.
III health sets in. You may lose
your strength and vitality; or you
may have rheumatic pains in the mus.
cles and joints; or you may be trou-
bled with bad boils, sores or some
other skin eruptions. All because of
the poisonous waste products in the
blood: Nature now needs help. She
has done her best but is failing. A

Live in the Present

An unknown writer says: "The
world pays every man in his own coin.
If you smile, it smiles upon you in
return; if you frown, you will be
frowned at; if you sing you will be
invited into gay company; if you think
you will be entertained by thinkers;
and if you love the world and earnest
ly seek for the good that is there in,
you will be surrounded by loving
friends. Would that our busy toilers
could realize that they must enjoy
passing days, if they would be happy.
The pleasure to which they look for
ward seldom comes. The man or wo-
men who has not learned contentment
and how to find delight in the present
has little reason to expect it in the
future. Be content to do the duty
that lies nearest you, and look not to
man for praise and approval. IT'S
not so much what we do as what we
are, and as to what we are" we speak
more forcibly thru our actions; but we
cannot act unless there is something
within that compels US to action. We
are touching our fellow beings on all
sides. They are affected for good or
evil by what we are, by what we say
and do, even by what we think and
feel.

g Ag'in Human Nature

Like most physically active men, !
have. always looked upon pick and
shovel work as merely a question of
getting used to it. But I soon dis
covered that that is precisely the one
thing which you can never succeed in
doing. The sheer monotony of rails
ing pick, lunging with it, raising it
again, and so on and on, broken only
by periods of >shoveling away in order
to begin to pick again, becomes in
creasingly intolerable, until you I'M

to get fired and have a chance to break
the monotony by moving on some
where-anywhere-to new job.
We would leave the blacksmith
shop at seven and be digging fifteen
minutes later. My pick and shovel
would be just an ordinary pick and
shovel when I began. Maybe the cool
night air still lurked in the coulee and
I enjoyedsthe feel of my muscles as
they frightened and swung to the

Dodge Bros. Give Parks

The Dodge Brothers corporation of
Detroit has given to the people of
Michigan II tracts of land totaling
627 acres located in four counties to
serve as permanent parks for the en-
joyment of the people. These gifts
are made as memorial to John F..
and Horace E. Dodge, founders of the
company. The tracts range in size
from 13 to 240 acres. Seven of them
are located on lakes and three on riv-
ers. The governor has accepted the
properties. Small parks to which the
public can always have access under
proper conditions are needed in every
state. The action of the Dodge cor
poration will no doubt be hint to
many public spirited citizens in all
parts of the country. A few acres of
we'll located land will cost at this time
only trifie. These open, spaces will
bring comfort and convenience to gen
erations Of travellers through all the

The end, as the old Latin saying
hath it, crowns the work. On the
race track one has seen the young,
confident athlete who in the first lap
sprang to the fore and ran as if that
lap were the whole of the run of a
mile or more. For time he enjoyed
the sensation of being in the lead. The
huzzas of the crowd were in his ears
he was intoxicated with the sensation
of being ahead of the field. But the
rejoicing of the onlookers and the
proud confidence of the runner were
premature.
Slowly from behind there crept up
on him one who at the crack of the
pistol was unregarded, so far was he
in the rear. He made "a bad get
away" The foremost competitor
caught him mapping.
But he goes on. He refuses to be
counted out. Now the man in front
shows signs of weakenings; he is
slowing down as the on who started
behind him quickens the pace and re-
morselessly overtakes him. They
come into the homestretch together.
With a last burst of speed the tortoise
catches up with the hare and breasts
the tape perceptibly in the lead. The
victory is by inches; but those inches
are more significant than all the rest
of the mile behind them. For in those
inches, not in the rest of the distance,
lies the victory. "
''He laughs best who laughs last"
Some men were brilliant performers
in the flush of early maturity. But
they have outlived their former pre-
stige. Instead of a crescendo of at
tainment and the repute that goes
Herewith, they mean less and less to
their time and the people about them.
1t would be better had they not won
sensational success thus premature
ly. 1t is rather pitful to find an old
age spent in recounting what was done
in the epoch that burnt itself out so
long ago, the first period in lifetime
that has accomplished nothing parti-
cular since then.

lie Ledger.
We hear much of the Flying start. ~
1t is start that counts in the race of
life as it does for runner out to
break a record. When a lad has fri
ends, good home, liberal education
and position given him he is sup
posed to start off with a momentum
that is decided advantage over 9TH
ers. The youth of a corrupting en-
vironment, with dissolute parents and
depraved associates, who has no train
ing but that of the streets and the
evil resorts, has handicap at the out
set of his career. Yet the first to ar
rive at the goal is not always the one
whose prospect was fairest at first.
Again and again man has lived down
and beaten out the clogs and hind
RANGES that beset him in the cradle.
1t is a long roll that might be called
of those who had every sort of prenat-
al and circumnatal condition against
them; who defed these things, as
things may forever be defed, and
went ahead and would not stop for the
softest whisper or the loudest shout of
EARNING from faint-hearts and quit
tiers.

When 0. Henry
"Was Took

o. Henry, it is reported was persu-
AIDED to be photographed only a few
months before his death, and William
van der Weyde, who offciated at the
camera, gives this account of that mo-
mentous occasion: ~
"When O. Henry first came to New
4ork-ln the spring of 1901 believe
it was-Ray Stanard Baker, who was
then editor of McClure's, asked me to
hunt him up and make photograph
of him for the magazine. I haven't
any idea where you can locate him
and [ know New York's a pretty big
place. said the editor, but O. Henry's
here somewhere and we want a por-
trait of him. I can't give you any
other information about him, unless
it is that you'll probably find him liv-
ing under his own name, William
Sydney Porter, instead of his pen
name, o. Henry
II spent two or three days in quest
of the new addition to the metropoli-
tan population and then abandoned
the hunt, deciding that it was job
for a Vidocq and not for me. Had l
known then what | now know of O.
Henry, I would have first looked in
Madison Square Park, where, like as
not, I would have found the writer
on bench engaging tramp in con-
versation, or at the little St. Andrews
Coffee Stands on the East Side, where
he was wont to become acquainted
with hungry mortals out of work who
told him stories of life.
Several years passed and in those
years, o. Henry became famous as
writer of short stories. Then one day
