—the frightful inroads of Scrofula
and all blood-taints. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery purifies
and enriches the blood, cleanses the
system of all impurities, and restores
health and strength. It cures all
diseases arising from impure blood.
Consumption is ono of them. It’s
simply lung-scrofula. In all its ear
lier stages, tho “ Discovery ” effects
a cure. It’s easy to see why. The
medicine that masters scrofula in
one part, is tho best remedy for it in
another. It U tho best It’s war
ranted. It’s the only blood and lung
remedy that’s guaranteed to benefit
or cure, or tho money will bo re
funded. No other medicine of its
class does it. How many would bo
left if they did?
It’s the cheapest blood-purifier,
sold through druggists, (no matter
how many doses aro offered for a
dollar,) because you only pay for
the good you got.
Your monoy is returned if it
doesn’t benefit or euro you.
Can you ask more?
This is the way
with the Ball corset: if you
want ease and shapeliness,
you buy it—but you don’t
keep it unless you like it.
After two or three weeks’
wear, you can return it and
have your money.
Comfort isn’t all of It
though. Soft Eyelets, and
"bones” that can’t break or
kink—Ball’s corsets havs
both of these.

The Sioux nation is rapidly becoming
a nation of aristocrats. Daring the past
few « eeka many fine new carriages have
crossed over here to the Sioux reserva
tion, and all of them iielonged to mem
bers of the Sionx nation who rame here
at dilferent times and purchased '.hem,
paying for tile same in good hard cash.
Carriage dealers are now, in conse
quence, doing a rushing business with
the Indians, and the demund for the
finest and most expensive carriages is in
creasing, ail the prominent and wealth
ier Indians appearing determined not to
be outdone by any other member or
members of the tribe.
The purchase by one Indian of an ele
gant carriage is sure to arouse the jeal
ousy of some other Indian, and then
some rustling is done. Cattle or any
thing that will net them the money
needed is harried to the nearest market
and disposed of, and with the money
thus obtained the fortunate Indian will
hurry to a wagon and carriage dealer
nod purchase the finest carriage that can
lie procured.
The Lower Brule and Crow Creek In
dians are already the possessors of many
fine turnouts, and should they keep on
as they are now doing every Indian wil'.
soon travel ulmiit in a carriage of his
own. if the carriage manufacturers
would paint their carriages a gsudiei
ecdor it would result in largely increased
sales, on the frontier at least, but at the
rate the Indians are purchasing it is
quite probable that they are satisfied
with tlie plain colors.—South Dakota

To Have New KyclIiU.
Harvey Chaffee, of East Valley, a well
known oil contractor, who was badly
burn -il by a natural gas explosion ou the
7th of May, is in the city for tile purpose
of having the skin grafting process tried
on him. Mr. Chaffee was very severely
roasted. The skin was burned off his
face and neck, and ten holes were left in
his head. The most serious Bcorching
was that upon the eyelids. They were
completely burned off both eyes, and in
their stead at present is tho raw, in
flamed and swollen flesh. The sight is
most repulsive, but Mr. Chaffee bears
his misfortnne with great fortitude.
When asked if his injuries were pain
ful, he replied: “Yes, sir, they hurt me
right smart at times, but it takes agreat
deal to make me grunt. I can Btand a
heap. You ought to have seen me when
I was burned. My ears wero ns big as
your fist nnd my head as big as a half
bushel measure. I was a regular sight.
You can ask my wife there," and he re
ferred the reporter to a pleasant woman
whos.it near.
Tlie work of putting new eyelids upon
the unfortunate contructer is to be doue
by Dr. F. D. Edsnll, who said that he
would cut the material for Mr. Chaffee’s
eyelids out of the patient's arm. Except
for his burns Mr. Chaffee was in a
healthy condition, and his own cuticle
wonld perhaps knit more rapidly than'
that from another (lenson. The new
eyelids will be bereft of eyelashes, bat
utility nnd a cure is what is sought after
rather than beauty in. this ease.—Pitts

Twenty Found Snlinon for » Cent Apiece.
The present wonderful run of sulmon
has so glutted the market that for some
time these silver sided beauties have
been selling at fire cents apiece, but the
price took a tumble yesterday and sev
eral fishermen sold a boat load of fine
salmon, weighing abont twenty pounds
each, at the pitifnl price of one cent
apiece. Oue cent for a twenty pound
silver salmon, the finest quality of that
excelleut fish, is the lowest price perhaps
that a food fish ever sold for in this or
any other country, but salmon are so
plentiful that people do not know what
to do with them, ,
It is estimated that enough fish could
betoken there in one day to fill 1,000
barrels. Fishermen say they can make
big money by selling salmon at a cent
apiece to the canneries if they will only
bny all they -can catch. One man caught
fourteen with a gilt hook attached to •
hoe handle yesterday, and another man
claims to have fonnd them in such num
bers in shallow water in the Dnngeness
that he threw them out with a pitchfork
and'soon got fish enough to last for a
month.—Fort Townsend Leader.
Sharks In Long Islnnil Sound.
An unnsnal number of largo sharks
was reported daring September in Long
applied. As a matter of fact, however,
the true man eating shark (Carcharodou
carehariuH) is rarely seen on oar coast.
This species grows to a length of twen
ty-five feet and to the weight of one ton,
being snr)>ussed in size only by tlie busk
ing shark. It is a relative of the enor
mous shark whose teeth occur fossil in
the phosphate beds of Sooth Carolina.
Any sburk measuring nine or ten feet in
length is liable to be called a man eater,
.uid not without warrant, for all of them
will attack man witli slight provocation
or when suffering from hanger.—Forest
aud Stream.
