Prevent
pneumonia
Prevention is always better than
cure, even when cure is possible.
But so many times pneumonia is not
cured that prevention becomes the
natural act of that instinct of self
preservation which is “ the first law
of nature.” Pneumonia can be pre
vented and is often cured by the use
of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral.
“Some year* ago I had a severe cold and
was threatened with pneumonia. I cooM
neither eat nor sleep, and was in a wretched
condition. I procured a bottle of Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral and took it according to the
directions, und at the end of fifteen aayew aa
ac well and Round aa before the attack. I
have recommended it in many case* of pneu
monia since, and have never known it to fail
in e(feeling a cure.”
JOHN HENRY, St. Joseph, La.
' "I waa attacked with a cold that settled
on tny lungs, and defied the skill of my phy
sicians so that they considered me incurable.
At last I began to use Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
and was entirely cured after having taken
two bottles.”

A ‘Bluff ” That Pal 4 Well.
“Here's a true story of cold cheek,”
said a local real estate dealer to a re
porter of the New Orleans Times
Democrat. “Eight years ago a New
Orleans man lost g good job here and
went tOja certain Southern city with
just $2 in his pocket. He was well
dressed and had a plausible tongue,
and hearing that the contract for
building a court house was about to
be let by a reform board of commis
sioners, he walked in and actually se
cured the job. They gave him two
days to file a bond and he went
straight to a banker, showed him
whera there was money in the scheme
and in thirty minutes persuaded him
to become his security. Now, mark
you, he knew no more about erecting
a public building than a soft shell
crab knows about Greek verbs, but
he telegraphed immediately to a big
contracting firm in St. Louis, and in
forty-eight hours was in consultation
with their expert. Asa result he
sub-let the work at a figure that left
him about $15,000 clear profit, after
giving the banker a slice. All the
t'me fie was doing this he had only
his in his pocket to go on. He
used it for shaves and shines, standing
oft everything else, but he had the
deal closed inside of three weeks
and the spoils salted away. Then, of
course he was in clover. He made
some lucky speculations afterwards
in phosphate lands and is worth to
day at least 50,000. 1 happen to
know that th : s story is true in every
particular, and whenever I think of it
I ana reminded of a remark made by
Imre Kirafy, the celebrated manager
of spectacular shoes. He is a Hun
garian and don't speak English very
well. One day a friend was congrat
ulating him upon a successful produc
tion, and said: ‘lmre, with God and
luck a man can work wonders.’
‘Ya as,’ replied Kiralfy, ‘mit gall ar.d
luck a man do mos’ anything.’

THE BLUES.
When a cheerful, brave, light-hearted
woman is suddenly plunged into that
perfection of misery, the blues, it is a
sad picture.
It is usually this way:—
Khc lias been feeling “out of sorts"
for some time; head has ached, and
back also; has
slept poorly, been A
quite nervous, oJT
and nearly fljr
fainted once ,i\,.Sdx

fast; then
that bear- lr (i
ing-down feeling. Her doctor says,
“cheer up, you have dyspepsia; you'll
be all right soon.”
Rut she doesn’t get “ all right.” She
grows worse day by day, till all at
once she realizes that a distressing fe
male complaint is established.
Her doctor has made a mistake.
She has lost faith in him; hope van
ishes; then comes the brooding, morbid,
melancholy, everlasting blues.

PRACTICAL LIFE-
O
(tbjSpk* LEASE allow us to send you a
. very sensible clipping from
Home and Farm written by a
lady who has been married
over twenty-five years.
She says: “When I married in 1870
I decided that my husband did not
marry me simply to look at, but for a
helpmate in its fullest sense. How
can I help to make a comfortable sup
port ? What can Ido that will con
tribute most to keep the wolf from
the door, were questions that caused
me no little trouble. Having inherit
ed a love for poultry I naturally turn
ed to them for a solution of the prob
lem. Knowing well that to succeed
in anything requires close attention,
I decided that my chickens should
not lack for this.”
Then she goes on to tell us how to
raise chickens, and how she bought
nearly all the clothing for the tamily
with the proceeds of her poultry yard,
and then goes on to say: “To the
girls thinking of marriage, I would
make these suggestions:
“Dont think you can marry and
have a bed of roses on which to
lounge through life. If you are poor
don’t marry a poor man unless you
are willing to make him a true and
faithful helpmate. Not only help him
fio make, but help him to keep that
which is made. Study how to make
a little of anything go as far as possi
ble in the cutting and making of gar
ments as well as in the preparation of
food. Live so that it may be said
of you ‘well done thou good and faith
ful servant’.”
Now that’s what we call good, hard
common sense; and we think it worthy
of consideration by thinking people.
The time has ceased to be when any
of us can expect to go through this
life right, without effort on our part.
A willingness on our part to contrib
ute this effort is one of the grandest
conclusions we can arrive at. Self
effort and self-reliance are very neces
sary to help us along. We were not
put here to go through this world on
a bed of roses. The Bible teaches us
that, “Ye shall earn your bread by
the sweat of your brow,” and does
not discriminate between sex.
This verifies my doctrine, that the
mother is the most important pel son
age in a family. If the mother is all
right there we may expect to find a
happy family. There is no love on
earth compared to a true mother s
love for her children. She may have
to chide her children at times, but it
is all for their good, and a true, sensi
ble mother knows when, how and
what is best for her children, and
always has the nerve to correct them.
Talk about a mother leaning her
home duties and going out into the
world in search of employment. She
is leaving behind her the most noble
calling on this earth. That of rear
ing and training her children right
proper. She should never do so un
less compelled through want and if
she will begin in time, like our sensi
ble lady did, she will not likely be
driven from her home through want.
In rowing a bogt against a strong
current, it is very necessary to have
two persons, one to use the oars, and
one at the helm to guide the boat,
and we think that the father should
use the oars, and the mother should
sit at the helm and guide the boat.
She can then better see the breakers
and guide the boat clear of them.
Good, hard, common sense is what
we need to go through this world
right. There is nothing of more im
portance to our children than educa
tion and refinement. But while we
are training them thus, we should
also train the hand with the head and
heart in order that they may be use
ful as well as ornamental. We should
have industrial schools all over this
country. Technological schools, Ag
ricultural schools, and train the hand
with the head, to be useful, ready and
willing to take hold of any thing in
the way of work that will bring us an
honest support. Besides this, every
family should have an industrial
school of its own. We used to have
them in olden times. It made but
little difference then if father was
rich, that son of his had to get out
early in the morning and get to work
and he must not tip-toe around much
either. The woods were full of little,
keen, hickory switches and they were
the best things they ever saw to wake
a boy np with, and although those old
mothers loved their children as dearly
as they could, you would always see
one or more of those keen hickories
sticking up about the house-

Mr. William Spark in his ''Mcffnt

Wesley which was related to him by
Mr. Bishop, the London oigan builder.
Wesley wt a great extemporaneous
fugue player, and on the occasion ti
which Mr. Bishop referred had boor,
asked to show off anew organ by play
ing a voluntary at (he afternoon service
previous to the reading of the first les
sou. Before going to the organ he asked
the vicar, who was an amateur organ
ist, how long the voluntary should last
“Oh,” replied the vicar, ‘‘pleast
yourself, Mr. Wesley. Say fivo or ten
miuutes, but we should like to hoar af
much of the different stops as you car
oblige us with. ”
When the time came, after a fewpre
liminary chords, Wesley started a fuga
subject, which he worked out in a mas
terly way in about a quarter of an hour,
and the vicar was about to commence
reading the lesson when the inexhausti
ble organist started a second subject,
and this he developed iu the same ab

Unusual Experience Granted La Roy Bowen Gifen up tu
Die by Four Doctors Because of a Serious Compli

From tht EnterpriM, Mapleton, Minn.
To escape death after being given up by
four doctors, and bidden good-bye to family
and friend., is an experience not granted
every man. Yet it happened to Mr. te Koy
Howen, of Decoria township, Blue Earth Cos.,
“S? Bowen is a farmer, but formerly re-
Bided iu Mapleton, where lie was clerk and
city marshall for a number of years, lie is
a well-known member of the Masonic fra
ternity and is of sterling honesty and up
rightness of character. „
His story is of the greatest interest. Me
“ I was suddenly taken sick in the spring
of 1895. The doctor was summoned. He pro
nounced my case one of gravel and said the
pain was caused by the passage of a stone
from the kidneys to the bladder. I doctored
with him for three months, hut was not bene
fited. Once a week I would have a bad spell
of two or three days duration, during which
I suffered untold agony.
“ Finally I went to Mankato and consulted
a specialist. He stated that I did. not have
gravel, hut thought it wus rheumatism of the
stomach. I continued to visit him until the
end of August. Then I became completely
bedridden and sent for another doctor, tfe
called my complaint inflammation of the
bowels and treated me for that.
“ The doctor laid my case before the fac
ulty of Rush Medical College, Chicago, and
it was decided that I had neuralgia of the
stomach. I was treated for that until De
cember, but continued to grow worse. Then
the doctor said, ‘I can’t do you any good.
All the help I know for you is an operation.’
•Very well,' I replied, ‘go 011 and operate,
if that is left for me.’

tors present examined me tor two hours, then
they retired and consulted for the same length
of time. Thcv concluded that they did not
know what ailed me. The head physician
asked permission to ‘cut,’ as he expressed
it, ‘and find out.’ I asked how big a,place
he wanted to cut. He said ‘he thought four
inches far enough.’ I did not want any such
hide-and-seek game played with roe, so the
operation did not occur. I continued under
the doctor’s care, but my case was con
sidered hopeless. I made my will, balanced
my accounts and made every preparation for
death.
