Are your cheeks
hollow and your
lips white ?
Is your appetite
poor and your di
gestion weak? Is
your ffesh soft
and have you lost
in weight?
These are symptoms of
anemia or poor blood.
They are just as frequent
in the summer as in the
winter. And you can be
cured at one time just as
well as another.
Emulsion
of cod liver oil with hypo
phosphites will certainly
help you. Almost everyone
can take it, and it will not
disturb the weakest stom
ach.
It changes the light color of
poor blood to a healthy and rich
red. It nourishes the brain ; gives
power to the nerves. It brings
back your old weight and strength.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 4 28, 1898-
White House Dinners.
The cost of a state dinner at the
whit* house runs from SSOO to SI,OOO.
according to the price of wines fur
nished.
State dinners, as a rule arc uninter
estirg aside from their picturesquness.
The sene, however, is one of beauty
and sumptuousness in effect.
The walls of the large dining room
are banket! with tropical flowers and
plants.
The table is gorgeous with gold
and silver plate.
The center of the table, which ac
commodates thirty sight persons, is
adorned by a large mirror,jienresenting
a miniature lake which is surrounded
by a bank of flowers. The mirror has
a golden frame and was purchased by
D .1 y Mad s n.
At either end of the board are golden
candel \bra.
With additions the table accommo
dates sixty persons.
The president's place it at the
center of the north side, the lenght of
which extends from east to west.
The wife of the chief executive of
the nation is seated opposite to her
husband upon these occasions.
The wives of recent presidents have
obtained large grants from congress
for the purchase of costy table fur
nishings.
The spoons and forks are of pure
gold, and some of the china is almost
priceless.
The cups, for instance, could not
be duplicated for SIOO each.
DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
tiess, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling or imperfeet bearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
eases oui of ten are causad by catarrh
which is nothing bu‘ an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness {(caused by
catarrh) that eannof be cured by Hall’s
Catarrh Cure. Send for cirulars, free.

THE CONDITION OF PEACE.
The most vital and non-dobatablo
condition of peace ate firmly settled
upon by our |Goven m nt and ap
proved by our people. They are
r c ignized in Europe as unchangea
ble, and are no doubt thoroughly un
derstood and tentatively aoccptel by
tbe Government of Sj am. They in
clude:
1. The withdrawal of Spain’s mill
tny fore • from Cuba and the recog
i ition l>y Spain of the absolute free
dom and independence of that island,
2. The cession of Porto Itico to the
United States without encumbrances
or reservation.
3. Such coaling stations and other
privileges in the remaining Sptnish
islands or colonies as the United
Stales may desire —N. Y. World
Prophecy of The Dying King.
In 1886, Alphonso XII, King of
Spain, lay dying in the royal palace.
With almost his dying breath he
siidd'-nly exclaimed: “What a con
flict; my God what a conflict,” Those
near him asked whathe meant by his
strange words. To them ho simply
replied, “I see a future conflict.”
Whether or not the dying king of a
dying nation pierced the veil of the fu
ture and caught a vision ot the strife
through which Spain is now passing,
is a matter of conjecture. But it is
quite certain that in his moments of
perfect health and clearest mind, he,
as well as his leading statesmen, must
ha/ie known that disaster was impend
ing. Certain conditions atways bring
disaster. The nation that sows the
wind will surely reap the whirlwind.
There are men in Spain who for
years have endeavored to persuade
the government to change its metiiodg
of ruling its colonies. The voice of
reason fell on deaf ears, and ihe end.
came on rapidly One by one her
colonies vanish and darkness settles
down n-pon Spain herself.
The vision of the dying Alphonso is
now seen by all the world. It is a
conflict, indeed. It is tne punishment
meted out by a nation of progress and
enlightenmest to of ignorance, oppres
sion and cruelty.—Athens Banner

About one month ago my child
which is fifteen months old, had an
attace of diarrhoea accompanieb by
vomiting. I gave it such remedies
as are usually given in such cases,
but as nothing gave relief, we sent
for a physician and it was under his
care for a week. At this time the
child had been sick for about ten
days and was having about twenty
five operations of the bowels every
twelve hours, and we were convindea
that unless it soon obtained relief it
would not live. Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
recommended, and I decided to try
it. I soon noticed a change for the
better; by its continued use a com
plete cure was brought about and it
is now perfectly healthy.—C. L.

A Word to tbo Girls.
Girls in the country sometimes
grow tired of the quiet routine of farm
work and long for the excitements
an 1 attractions of the city life. But
1 fe ia the city is not jtht- public holi
day It se< ms to the girls on their
occasional visits to town. Believe
mo when I tell you that wirking girls
in the city have an infinitely more
monotonous existence than the coun
try girls ever dreamed of. You get
up early and work hard, it is true, but
the picnics you attend in the summer
and the sleiglirides and parties that
enliven your winter, give you social
recreation and change, while there is
always the keenest enjoyment for
i hose who know how to read Mother
Nature,B b ok.
Think of spending every working
day in a dingy office, writing and fig
uring constantly, with but half a day’s
vacation in three years, as one girl I
know of has done! Think of spending
all the hot, dusty, summer days at a
sewing machine in a factory, with the
ceaseless clatter of hundreds of other
machines about you! Think of walk
ing two miles to work, stand behind
a counter all day, forced to smile,
though you feel as a villian ought, to
leel and walking home at night! All
these things thousands of girls in tbe
city do.
One girl I know stands and irons
ready made shirt-waists all day. week
in and weok out. Where is the va
riety in her life? llow would you like
to exchange your duties with them?
Do you uot think it would be wel
come relief to them to milk in the
cool of the morning, churn, ' ake, and
sweep before the hottest part of the
day, peel the potatoes for dinner out
under the shade of a tree, and, after
the dinner work is over, to sit out in
the cool and shady yard, or rest in the
hammock, or ride tbe pony, or, in the
fail, to go to the woods in search for
nuts, and at night to lie down and
breathe in the sweet scented air of
the country instead of sewer smells
effluvia of dirty alleys.
How would you like to pay out of
your scant earnings for every soeckled
apple or withered peach you ate?
Why, if you lived in the eitv you
would have to pay for fruit that you
would not pick up from the ground
now. How would you like the ever
present possibility of losing your
place and having your income cut off
for a time, with uo money to pay the
expenses that always accumulate so
fast? Think of all these things be
fore you give up the quiet and peace
lul life of the country with the cer.
tainty of a comfortable home, even if
you do not have ice cream and fried
chit ken every day. To ‘make the
best of what you have is better than
to ruch into evils that -you know not
of.—Metropolitan aud Rural Home.
