progress is ia the treatment of ihe
blood. In the old days it. was
thought that thb opening of a vein
and the letting of blood was a cure
for most diseases. The fallacy of
that theory was discovered a’ter a
while. Then symptoms were treat
ed and the blood disregard. That
also has lately been shown to be a
wrong practice, for, though driven
away for a time, the symptoms al
ways return if the cause is not re
moved, and the disease is worse
:han before.
‘ It is 'he root of the disease that
must be attacked and the most im
portant development of modern
medical science has been in discov
ering that, in mo3t diseases.this lies
in the condition of the blood. If ihe
blood is thin or poor, the nerves
cannot receive iheir proper nour
ishment, the system becomes run
down and m a condition to invite
disease. Build up the blood, restore
the worn-out nerves and you re
move the cause. And when the
cause is gone, the disease will fol-
>w ”
An instance of the truth of tlrs is
the case of the little sou of Mrs
Minnie Pari.-h, living at Donnra,
Washington Co. Pa lu a recent
interview the mother said:
“Our little boy, now eight years
of age, was terribly afflicted with
boils on his back, legs &ud feet. He
was pale and sallow and his system
was completely run down. He had
no appetite and his stomach causer!
him great distress. We hid him
treated by good doctors at St Louis
and Indianapolis, but their efforts
did him little good. Then we took
him (o Pittsburg, hoping the change
would help him. Wniie there a doc
tor refused to vaccinate him,because
his blood was in bad condition and
gave us a certificate to that effect.
We tried various remedies, but
without avail. He grew worse. in
stead of better, aud I am sure he
could not have lived long if he had
not been relieved.
“A friend from Dubuque, Iowa,
advised us to give him Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People. Her
daughter had successfully taken
them for bloodlessness aud shatter
ed nerves and this induced my hus
band and myself to give them to
our boy. In June, 1900, one year af
ter his tioubie commenced, he be
gan to take Dr. Williams’ Pink Piiis
and half of the first box caused im
provement. He began to eat and
play and was so much better that
we kept on giving them to him un
til he had taken three boxes and
was cured. He lias no more
sores and to-day is perfectly
well and the happiest boy on the
street.
“I have reoommended Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills for Pale People to
many of my friends as a medicine
for the nerves and blood and I am
positive the remedy will do all that
is claimed for it.
In order that there could bo no
room for doubt, Mrs. Parish con
sented to make aflidayit to the
above, which she did. May 24, 1901,
before George W. Allen, a notary
public.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People will not only cure cases sim
ilar to that of Master Parish but,
containing as they do, all the ele
ments necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and re
store shattered nerves, they hav“
proved efficacious in a wide range
of disease. They are an unfailing
specific for such diseases as locomo
tor attaxia. partial paralysis, St.
Vitus’ dance, sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, the
after-effects of the grip, palpitation
of the heart, paie and. sallow com
plexions and all forms of weakness,

An Odd Nest.
A correspondent of Cassell's Maga
zine records a curious freak on. the
part of some wasps in Gloucester, Eng
land.
The wasps were noticed going in and
out of a lock which secured a work
shop door. The owner of the shop had
the look removed to satisfy his curiosi
ty about the doings of the busy work
ers. He found a nest inside. The cells
were made of mud and were full of
larva?. There were several dead wasps
inside the lock.
As the lock was in almost daily use
the wasps could not have had a very
peaceful home.
Try one ot oar clubbing offers.
with a velocity of, say, 3,000 feet a sec
ond. It will rise to an enormous
height, come to a standstill for an in
finitesimal fraction of a second aud be
gin to'fall back again. It will strike
the earth with very nearly but not
quite the same velocity as it left the
muzzle of the gun. It Yvould be exact
ly the same but for the resistance of
the air.
What has happened is this; The ex
plosion of the powder has changed a
solid into a gas, and the expansive en
ergy of this has driven the bullet up
ward. In other words, it has for the
time overcome that mysterious force
by which- the earth draws everything
toYvard its own center.
But when the energy of the exploded
powder is exactly balanced by the pull
of gravitation the bullet falls back. In
the first second after its turn it falls
16 feet, in the next 32, in the next 64,
in the next 12S, and so on till it returns
with ever increasing velocity whence
it started. *
Nothing has been lost, nothing gain
ed. The gases set free by the explo
sion of the powder, weigh exactly as
much as the solid. Some of the energy
has been used as heat, some in propel
ling the bullet. Gravitation, overcome
for awhile, has reasserted itself. The
sum of matter and force in the uni
verse is absolutely unchanged.
This-is as true of the quickened beat
of a girl’s heart when she meets her
lover as it is of the march of the plan
ets and suns through the fields of space.
Every atom of matter, every unit of
force, throughout the universe is con
stant, external and exactly balanced,
and the whole strength and genius of
humanity could not increase or dimin
ish them by the slightest fraction.
Now, let us imagine what would hap
pen if man could make that bullet
strike the earth with greater or less
force than it left the muzzle of the gun.
He would either have increased or de
creased the total of universal energy,
and in either case he would have
thrown first the solar system and then
the whole universe out of gear.
The earth and all the other planets
would begin to revolve in different or
bits. The sun, with its family of worlds,
would alter its path round the un
known center about which it revolves.
Then world would be hurled against
world and sun against sun. and stars
and planets would be reduced to the
flaming gases from which they cooled
Into solids and liquids before time be
gan to be.
Just the same catastrophe would hap
pen if man could either create or en
tirely destroy a grain of sand on the
seashore. The balance of the universe,
In which swing stars and planets,
whose weight is inexpressible in human
figures (this tiny world of ours weighs
6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 tons), is in
finitely more delicate than that which
the chemist has to keep in an airtight
case and at an even temperature lest a
breath of air should throw it out of
gear.
Thus the destruction or creation of a
grain of sand would change the orbit
of the earth round the sun. In the
one case It would be drawn closer and
closer to the sun, perhaps after thou
sands of revolutions to be swallowed
up in fiery ruin. In the other case it
Yvould gradually leave the sun and year
by year Yvander farther away into re
gions of space where human life would
be impossible.
The result of the dislocation of such
a stupendous system, which has work
ed with unfailing exactitude for count
less ages, is, of course, utterly beyond
the scope of human imagination, and
yet such a seeming trifle as the creation
or destruction of a single grain of sand
might, and probably Yvould, plunge it
into utter chaos and ruin.—Pearson’s.

A WOMAN’S LOVE.
A sentinel angel silting high in glory
Heard this shrill wail ring out from purgatory:
“Have mercy, mighty angel; hear my story!
“I loved, and, blind with passionate love, I fell.
Love brought me down to death and death to bell,
For God is just,-and death for sin is well.
“I do not rage against his high decree
Nor for myself do ask that grace shall be,
But for my love on earth who mourns for me.
“Great Spirit, let me see my love again
And comfort him one hour, and I were fain
To pay a thousand years of fire and pain.”
Then said the pitying angel: “Nay! Repent
That wild vow: Look! The dial iinger's bent
Down to the last hour of thy punishment!”
But still she wailed: “I pray thee, let me go!
I cannot rise to peace and leave him so.
Oh, let me soothe him in his bitter woe!”

And upward, joyous, like a rising star,
She rose and vanished in the ether far.
But soon adown the dying sunset sailing,
And like a wounded bird her pinions trailing.
She fluttered back, with broken hearted wailing.
She sobbed: “1 found him by the summer sea
Reclined, his head upon a maiden’s knee.
She curled his hair and kissed him. Woe is me!”
She wept: “Now let my punishment begin!
I have been fond and foolish. Let me in

The angel answered: “Nay, sad soul; go higher!
To be deceived in your true heart’s desire
Was bitterer than a thousand years of fire!”

DYNAMITE AND MINERS.
Hin Ability.
“And how is my old school friend
Bimson getting on?” said the man whe
had returned to his native city after a
long absence.
“Oh, he’s doing first rate.”
“But he was such a bright boy we al
ways expected he would display espe
cial ability.”
“Well, I don’t know that he hasn’t
displayed especial ability.”
“I never hear him mentioned in con
nection with any of your elections.”
“No; that’s just the point. He has
shown ability to go ahead quietly and
build up a business. He doesn’t have
to run for office.”—Washington Star.
Loag Immunity From Accident Re-
salts In Contempt of Danger.
“After a miner had handled dynamite
for eight or ten years without a serious
mishap it is a good idea to puffhim to
doing something else about the works,”
said a gentleman of this city who has
had a great deal of experience with high
explosives. “The chances are a hundred
to one that his long immunity from ac
cident has given him such a contempt
for danger that he is an unconscious
menace to everybody on the premises.
He will do things that not only imperil
his own life, but the lives of ail his
comrades. To give you an illustra
tion, once I had an old Cornishman at
work at a mine in which I was inter
ested and had intrusted him with a
general supervision of all the blasting.
He had been handling dynamite for
twenty years or more and was justly
regarded as an expert. During that
entire period he had never had an acci
dent worth speaking of, and by de
grees the care and vigilance that were
responsible for his excellent record had
worn away until he was beginning to
entertain the delusion, common to old
hands, that the danger of the stuff was
very much exaggerated.
“One day I was passing through a
cut where some blasting had been go
ing on and noticed the old Cornishman
hammering a drill into what seemed to
be a boring In the rock. I asked him
what he was doing, and he told me
coolly there was a cartridge in the hole
that had failed to explode and he was
‘just knockin’ out the tampin’ to re
prime it.’ I was horrified, for at every
blow he was liable to explode the dyna
mite, and I ordered him sternly to stop
and never repeat such a performance.
The proper method would have been to
have drilled a new hole near by and
exploded the first charge with a second
blast. He obeyed sulienly, grumbling
to himself, and less than a month after
ward was blown up while doing exact
ly the same thing. He lost his left arm
at the shoulder, his left eye aud part of
his left ear. He also lost his contempt
for dynamite, aud when he finally
emerged from the hospital I gave him
back his former job. I never had a
more scrupulously careful employee
than he was from that time ou. It
seems a brutal thing to say, but there
is nothing that does an old dynamite
hand as much good as to get blown up
once or twice.”—New Orleans Times-
Democrat.

He took him out to the summer kitch
