Gideon Young, timber cruiser,
a resident of Duluth, was accost

Virginia, on the Rainy Lake road,
in the vicinity of tin* internation

“White man Findader?" grunt

“No.”
“Got bottle?”
“No."
“White man got money?”
“No.”
“White man no good,” grunted
the second brave.
“White man climb tree?” one
tsked after a pause.
“N—n—n, yes, if 1 have to,”
said Gideon.
“Then white man climb tree,"
pointing to a Norway pine.
The cruiser climbed. The reds
insisted that he go “way up."
Then the ludians smok

Nature “makes all things beau
tiful in their time” Every one
of life’s seasons, when life moves
ii Nature’s lines, furs its own
[chaim and heatitv. Many women
I dread that period when they must
i experience change of life. They
fear that face and form may
sutler by the change, and that
they may fail to please those
whom they love. The value of
Doctor Pierce’s Favorite Pres
cription in this crisis of woman’s
life lies in tin* fact, that it assists
Nature. Its us.* preserves the bal
ance and buoyancy of the mind
and sustains tin* physical powers.
Many women have expressed
their gratitude for the help and
comfort given by “Favorite

period. Its benefits are not passing
but permanent and conduce to

THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, MARCH 19. lPt-3
“Fool Killer” and the Tax
payer.
Bolton Hall, the single-tax
apostle, lias just given to the
public, in a little book called
“The Game of Life,” a sheaf of
faldes that satirize modern cus
toms and laws, and at the same
lime are intended to show how
much better off we all would be
under the reforms which Mr. Hall
advocates. Among other things
that rouse his indignation and
irony is the spectacle of unem
ployed workingmen and idle land
existing concurrently, with no ef
fort by society to bring the two
together. Mr. Hall satirzes this
state of affairs thus.
| “What’s'that?” asked the fool
I killer.
“That’s an unemployed man in
a vacant lot,” said J.
“Why don’t you have him work
on the lot and produce some
thing?” asked the fool killer.
“Because,” 1 said, “we suffer
I from over-production already;
and, besides, the owner of the lot
won’t let him work on it.”
“I must get my club,” said the
fool killer.
“Hold on I” I said. “Pretty
soon we will arrest the man, be
cause lie does not do anything;
then the judge will finde him, be
cause he has no money; and we
will keep him idle in jail because
he was idle out of Jail; and the
it. '
I workers will tax themselves to
: pay for all that.”
The fool killer gasped, “I must
| order a Gatling gun.”
“Don’t go off half-cocked,” 1
said. “Those are our laws.
“Everybody, civilized men,”
said I.
“The men that pay their taxes?”
asked the fool killer.
“Why, yes.”
”1 must swear in some depu
ties,” said the fool killer.
“Stop,” 1 said : “no one speaks
like that about the laws; they are
the accumulated wisdom of the
ages, and must be treated with
respect.”
“Why don’t someone tell the
truth, and say the laws are stupid
and wicked?” asked the fool kill
er.”
“We kill such fools as speak
the truth about such things,”j
said I.
“Come,” said the fool killer,
“1 will go and poison the water
supply.”
On the way the fool killer asked
agaid.
“What are those places?”
“That is a tobacconist’s,” I
said, “and the other is a gin gin
mill. You see, we poison our
own drinking supply—oh, the
next is a drug store and beyond
is a hospital—
“l will go home,” said the fool
killer. “These fools are doing
my work themselves.”
NEXT TO HIS BIBLE.
When my boy left home for board
ing school, 1 put a bottle Cheney’s Ex
pectorant in iiis trunk and advised him
to use it whenever he caught cold.
Yesterday 1 received a letter from him
asking for more of the medicine. “My
room mate and I” said he, “can’t do
without it.” Mrs. I. E. Rich,
Frankfort, Ky.
When men are as true to them
selves as their dogs are true to
their masters, this will be a much
better world to live in.

Sleep and Recreation.
Few hftrd workers realize the.
nerve cells have exhausted their
vitality 7. No good engineer would
think of running a delicate piece
ot complicated machinery when
the lubricant is used ur>, says
March Success. He would know
that, the moment the oil has ceas
ed to be effective, and the bear
ings begin to chafe and become
heated, the harmony of the mech
anism will be destroyed, and the
friction and discord will soon
ruin the delicate adjustment of
the mach iue.
But hundreds of level —headed
men, (in other respects) who are
engineers of the most marvelous
pieces of machinery ever devised,
even by the great Creator mach
inist —machines fearfully and
wonderfully wrought,—run their
engines, their human, throbbing
organizations, so delicyite that a
particle of dust or friction any
where may throw the whole
fabric out of harmony for days
or weeks, without proper cleaning
or lubrication.
Plenty of sleep and abundant
recreation out of doors, especially
in the country, are the great lub
ricants; nature’s great restorers,
refreshers, without which long
continued good work is impos
sible. —Rome Tribune.

KEVEKI. ATTACK OF GIMP.
Cured by one Bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough lteniedy.
“When I hail an attack of the grip
last winter (the second one) I actually
cured myself with one bottle of Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy,” says Frank
W. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise,
Shortsville, N. Y. “This is the honest
truth. Tat times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking a teaspoon
fill of this remedy, and when the cough
ing spell would come on at night I
would take a dose and it seemed that
in the briefest interval the cough would
pass off and I would go to sleep perfect
ly free from cough and its accompany
ing pains. To say that the remedy act
ed as a most agreeable surprise is
putting it very mildly. I had no idea
that it would or could knock out the
grip, simply because 1 had never tried
it for such a purpose, but it did, and
it seemed with the second attack of
coughing the remedy caused it to not
only be of less duration, but the pains
were far less severe, and I had not
used the contents of one bottle before
Mr. Grip had bid me adieu.” For sale

THE ORIGINAL i
OVER MEDICINE!
A sallow complexion, dizziness,
biliousness and a coated tongue
are common indications of liver
and kidney diseases. Stomach and
bowel troubles, severe as they are,
give immediate warning by pain,
but liver and kidney troubles,
though less painful at the start, are
much harder to cure. Tliedford's
Black-Draught never fails to bene
fit diseased liver and weakened kid
neys. It stirs up the torpid liver
to throw off the germs of fever and
ague. It is a certain preventive
of cholera and Bright’s disease of
the kidneys. With kidneys re
inforced by Tliedford’s felack-
Drauglit 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 I 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
troubles and dyspepsia and other
complaints. Rev. A. G. LEWIS.
