It's a tip
that you need help, when pimp] ;',
blotches, and eruptions begm to ap
pear. Your blcwd needs looking
after. You’ll havo graver mattris
than pimples to deal with, if v m
neglect it. Dr. Pierce’s Golilen
Medical Discovery prevents and
cures all diseases and disorders
caused by impure blood. It invig
orates the liver, purifies the blood,
and promotes all the,bodily func
tions. For all forms of scrofulous,
skin and _ scalp disease, and even
Consumption (which is really lun<--
scrofula) in all its earlier stages, it
is a certain remedy. It’s the only
one that’s guaranteed, in every case,
to benefit or cure, or tho money is
refunded. It’s a matter of confi
dence in one’s medicine.
It is tho cheapest blood-purifier
, sold , til rough druggists, because you
only pay for Che good you got.
Can .you ask more?

I OWENFOBT DBUO or
Tlwii I III- i.id man cuncfuded that a
Viiie wlii' ii would stand agin a hard
a iml wii'lil cheapest in the Jong'mn,
ttnl liy il.e middle of October he had
uiiit ;i -tiiiit ruil fence to replace the
hi-tlge. 11 was a bounty—seven rails
iiigli. will, lurked corner* and a heavy
"ii'l' i '"ii every length. But we had
tuirilly jin-1 ) look over the old man’s
ii.uiiliw'.rlt n"d pronoanfie it gisnllieforo
- -I “truck it nnd scattered the
.ailst.fer-i '.-ml neighboringtownships.
Hit!" I I' liietaiitly Braun then decided
.'1 fmli'w my esiimplo ami fence his
jI ii'i- wiiii li rh wire. He put in place
i>f tin- mil t'-nco that wus a wire fence
wliit-ii t-oiiM scarcely be beaten. It bad
l.-ii'gf. snwi-d postsand five heavy wires,
ami “li'itiM have lasted a lifetime. It
might 11avi* hone so, perhaps, lint for an
iniliirliiiiiit.- occurrence. One afternoon
early in November another blizzard
( a ring along, pulled up every
blamed fence post, ctirefally wrapped a
few niih-'of wire around them and sailed
oil toward Chicago with the whole outfit.
When the liedge was destroj-eil the
old Dutchman merely sighed; when the
rail ient-i- went he said something hulf
niiih-r his lireath; when the wire fence
followed it he swore. Then he snt down,
lighted his pipe and fell into a brown
study.
Bright anil early the next spring he
began another fence. It was somethin
entirely new for onr country, but it was
a dandy ami no mistake. The old man
set his hired hands to work plckin up
stones and liauliu bowlders together,
and in a few weeks h.e had collected
enough of ’em to build a stoue wall. It
was as strong as stono and cement could
muke it, and was four feet wide and
three feet high. Out) afternoon, just
after it was completed, Braun was
pofutin out tti tnu the fine points of his
new wall, when we noticed a black
dond over ngiu the western horizon.
“There's trouble over thar, old man,’’
said I. “That blamed tiling is jest rollin
up its sleeves and spittin ou its hands
and gettin ready for business. It'll lie
along here, too, in about two minutes."
‘•Veil, let it coom."
Then, as there wasn’t anythin else to
do, we sat down to watch it. It cams
zippin along, twistin off trees close to
the gronnd or pullin 'em by the roots,
enttin the prairie grass as clean as a
mower could have done it nnd sweepin a
clean path. When it reached that wall
it just stopped a moment ns if to look it
over, aud I could swear I heard a chuckle.
Then it stopped and caught hold of the
edge of the masonry. It held together
well, but np it came, slowly and steadily.
Jest when the wall had been turned half
over the blizzunl suddenly gave a groan,
tost its grip nnd loosened its hold. The
wall settled down upon its side and the
blizzard jumped over it and went howl-
in oat of sight.
“Velir said Braun jubilantly. “Vot
I told yon. Dot fence U a dandy, don't
iff It ia von feet higher now as yiefore
dot vind coom along.” And be winked
the other eye.—Bomb Dakota Cor. Chi

The Wonsan with the Fan.
The woman who uses a fan in a public
assembly must see, if she has any ade
quate perception of what she is doiug,
that five-sixths of the air carried by this
implement of tortnre is thrown into the
neck of the gentleman or lady who sits
in front of her.' She may have read in
worka of physiology, and she most have
seen very often In the newspapers, that
pneumonia and kindred diseases are
often the result of such careless me of
the fan; hot she would not abandon the
haUt or forego the alight relief that lit
tle waft of air brings to her cheek to
save the life of the whole assembly.
We have have had a stiff neck (not the
moral, bnt the physical kind) for several
days following the gratification of one
who sat behind us in a church or lectnra
room, and we regard the woman with a
fan as the ideal picture of supreme ael-
fishnem. Men are bad enough, bet a,
selfish woman with a fan can take the
prize.—New York Journal of Commerce.
Nil-rant ■( the Omln anil Romans.
The mirrors of the ancient Greeks and
Romans were thin disks of bronze, high
ly polished nnd usually fashioned with
handles, lliongh sometimes they were
set upright on stnnds. Later ou silver
was used, nnd the Hist mirror of solid
silver is ssid to have been made by
Praxiteles in the time of Julius Cesar.
Subsequently silver mirrors took the
place of brass or bronze ones almost al
together, though steel, copper and even
gold were also employed. ’’Looking-
glasses" of metal were employed every
where np to the Fifteenth century.—
