BLACKDRAUOHT
I THE ORIGINAL
LIVER MEDICINE!
A sallow complexion, dizziness,
biliousness and a coated tongue
are common indications of Jiver
and kidney diseases. Stomach and
bowel troubles, severe as they are,
give immediate warning by pain,
but liver and kidnev troubles,
though less painful at the start, are
much harder to cure. Thedford’s
Black-Draught never fails to bene
fit diseased liver and weakened kid
nevs. It stirs up the torpid liver
to throw' off the germs of fever and
ague. It i3 a certain preventive
or cholera and Bright’s-disease of
the kidneys. With kidnevs re
inforced by Thedford’s Dlack-
Prauaht thousands of persons have
dwelt immune in the midst of yel
low fever. Many families live in
perfect health and have no other
doctor than Thedford’s Black-
Draught. It is always on hand for
use in an emergency and saves
many expensive calls of a doctor.
Mullins, S. C., March 10, 1901.
! have used Thedford’s Black-Draught
for three years and 1 have not had to go
to a doctor since i have been taking it.
It is the best medicine for me that is
on the market for liver and kidney
1 troubles and dyspepsia and other
A complaints. Rev. A. 0. LEWIS.

BUSY BRAIN WORKERS.
Men of Thought and Mental Force Are
Usually Long Lived.
It is a very common but erroneous
belief that brain work is destructive
of physical strength, says the Chi
cago Chronicle. The fact is that
men of thought and mental force
have always been distinguished for
their age. Colon. Sophocles, Pindar,
Anacreon and Xenophon were octo
genarians. Kant, Buffon, Goethe,
l'ontenelle and Newton were over
eighty. Michael Angelo and Titian
were eighty-nine and ninety-nine re
spectively. Harvey, the discoverer
of the circulation of the blood, lived
to be eighty.
Many men have done excellent
work after they have passed- eighty
years. Lander wrote his “Imaginary
Conversations” when eighty-five.
Izaak \\ alton wielded a ready pen
at ninety. Hahnemann married at
eighty and was still working at
ninety-one. Michael Angelo was still
painting his giant canvases at
eighty-nine, and Titian at ninety
worked with the vigor of his early
years.
Fontenelle was as light hearted at
ninety-eight as at forty, and New
ton at eighty-three worked as hard
as he did in middle life. Cornaro
was in far better health at ninety
five than at thirty and was as happy
as a sandboy. At Hanover Dr. Du
Boisy was still practicing as a phy
sician in 1897, going his daily
rounds at the age of 103. William
Reynold Salmon, M. R. C. S., of
Conbridge, Glamorganshire, died on
March 11, 1897, at the age of 106.
At the time of his death he was the
oldest known individual of indispu
tably authenticated age, the oldest
physician, the oldest member of the
Royal College of Surgeons, Eng
land, and the oldest Freemason in
the world.
Fuss.
A writer in the London Lancet,
discussing “Fuss as a Mark of Mod
ern Civilization,” defines fuss as a
form of neurosis, and says of it:
It is not vigilance or prudence or
deliberate and considerate judg
ment. It is not even a natural and
rational anxiety, though it may ex
hibit itself in the guise of any one of
these. It is mere fussiness. Serving
in itself no useful purpose, it min
gles with and impedes every useful
work, dampening energy and dis
couraging initiative and the sense of
responsibility in those engaged in it.
All the while it may be preaching
moderation and self control. This
neurosis is not confined to any peo
ple or part of the civilized world,
though it would seem to be more
prevalent in some quarters than
elsewhere. Wherever there exists a
suitable soil in the form of an intel
lect equipped with the visual organs
of education, but without corre
sponding reflective power and self
restraint, there the morbid germ de
velops until it may even become epi
demic over a wide area.
Mexican Justice.
An American tells this story of
Mexican justice: “One morning the
body of a cowboy was found in a
border town. It was supposed he
had crossed the Rio Grande to at
tend a dance and flirted with some
senorita and so was shot by a Mexi
can. At least that was the theory,
because a bag of money amounting
to S2OO, all in gold, was found on
the body, proving that the murder
had not been done for robbery. Be
sides the coin a very costly six
shooter, silver mounted and ivory
handled, was strapped around the
deceased. The finding of the gun
was the occasion of a trial before
the local alcalde, or justice of the
peace. It was against the law to
carry weapons, and the dead man
was "fined S2OO, just the sum they
found on him, for violating the
Mexican statute.”
Explosive Diamonds.
It has long been known that dia
monds, especially the class known as
“rose diamonds,” are likely to ex
plode if subjected only to what
would seem a very ordinary degree
of heat. It is now believed that the
explosions are the result of the rap
id expansion of certain volatile liq
uids inclosed in cavities near the
center of these precious stones. A
great many diamonds, even though
cut, mounted and worn as gems of
perfection, are still in an unfinished
condition —that is, the liquid drop
from which • the stone is being
formed has not as yet deposited all
of its “pure crystals of carbon.”
These movable drops may occasion
ally be seen with the naked eye.
The Brute.
“Wha-a-t’s the matter; John?”
gasped Mrs. Torque. “Don’t you
like the new dishes I’ve cooked ?”
“Where did you get the recipe?”
“Out of the cookbook, of course.
Why?”
“Don’t you think that you hap
pened to get the cookbook mixed
with some dialect story? This dish
tastes like it.”—Baltimore Herald.

Harmony of Colors-
C. N. Udell M. D., in Word and Works.
There is harmony or discord of
colors, as well as of sounds. Yet so
many persons fail to discover it.
Not because they are color blind,
but from lack of study. Nature
places many beautiful object les
sons before us, in the rainbow, the
clouds, the prairies, the forests in
the fall season, and even the moun
tains present beauty as well as
grandeur to our view.
One person will form a most
charming boquet of a handful of
flowers, while another with the
same flowers will so arrange them
as to cause one to turn from them
in disgust. One lady will so arrange
her own toilet or that of her chil
dren, as to look slovenly, while
another with even plain and inex
pensive materials will look lovely;
all because of her better knowledge
of the harmony of colors. The same
will be true in the arrangement of
furniture, curtains, pictures etc.,
in a room. One painter will spoil
the appearance of a costly dwelling
house, because of his ignorance of
the harmony of colors, the contrast
in colors being so great that one is
at once reminded of a funeral as
the house appears to be draped in
mourning.
In the painting of a house, in
the dress, in the arrangement of a
parlor or bed room, or the door
yard or the garden, or in setting
the table, or the arranging of a
boquet or decorating a chuich, we
should study harmony of colors;
so tnat the colors will blend beauti
fully, and not show that coarse
contrast in color that denotes a
lack of truly refined tastes.
The wonderful success of
Ramon’s Nerve and Bone Oil in
cases of rheumatism, soreness,
stiff joints, etc., lies in its penetrat
ing character. True to its name,
it penetrates direct to the nerve
and bone, effecting almost mir
aculous cures Price 25 cents.
“Long One Jackass ”
Senator Elkins of West Virginia
in his young days was a railroad
station agent out west, his office
being a box car on a siding, says
the Portland Oregonian. He tells
the story on himself that 6ne day
in checking a carload of immi
grants’ effects he could not find a
bureau called for by the way bill.
He was in possession, however, of
a vigorous young jackass that was
not down in the bill, so he wired to
shipping agent:
“I am short one bureau and long
one jackass.”
The answer came back:
“You are O. K. That bureau
was a burro.”
For the benefit of the eastern
tenderfoot it may be explained
that the burro is a small pack asi
mal of the jackass species.
