Pistols and Pestles. The duelling pistol now occupies its proper place, in the museum of the collector of relics of barbarism. The pistol ought to have beside it the pestle that turned out pills like bullets, to be shot like bullets at the target of tho liver. But the pestle is still in evidence, and will be, probably, until everybody has tested the virtue of Ayer’s sugar coated pills. They treat the liver as a friend, not as an enemy. Instead of driving it, they coax it. They aro compounded on the theory that the liver does its work thoroughly and faithfully under obstructing conditions, and if the obstructions are removed, the liver will do its daily duty.

Proper and Advantageous Way to Sell Farm Products. ‘The independent shippers of grain to Minneapolis and Chicago begin to re- alie that they have a common obstacle to surmount. The professional grain shippers over a dozen big states trib- utary to these points number an army. Many of them have grown rich from the farmers’ wagons by a twenty-five years’ stay at their stations. Some of them have private banks, some have i; bought farms, all are prosperous. This house has not a word against these people. -It is not doing business with them. It is doing business. with an army of farmers. It has given pro- ducers the best practical help since the ilroads made the big central mar- kets possible. If ten thousand farmers have discovered that they have no fur- ther use for one thousand country grain buyers, they have a_ per-- ht to go past them, fill their and ship their own grain. Many years ago farmers discovered that the old reaper and the old double- shovel one-horse corn cultivator were too slow. They left them in the fence corners and bought improved machin- j ery. The manufacturers did not kick. They met the demand with self-bind- ers and riding sulky plows. The world has grown tired of many old things. The farming world is getting tired of paying others to do what it can do it- self. If farmers wish to desert the lo- shippers (who may have been need- ed forty years ago), no amount of mulishness on the part of the ship- pers can stop them. Grain shippers have an organ to keep up their cour- age. Their publication has again filled its columns with abuse of the farmers’ commission house. It is a case of sore tee. They howl because they are hurt. The farmers understand this sort of warfare made on the house which has rut them in touch with Minneapolis and Chicago. Their letters to us show that they believe this fact, viz., that if there is enough in grain shipments to fight for, the farmers want that mar- gin. All that is now needed to spread direct shipments is some well devel- oped opposition. Farmers are in a frame of mind to do about as they please this year. We welcome any fair and honorable attention from the yaid organs of grain shippers, and will see that its attacks are well spread be- fore independent shippers and in- dependent thinkers in a thousand farming communities. We have as- surances that our efforts in behalf of farmers will be fully appreciated and reciprocated. Any man or any house may be glad of a fair criticism from the enemy with such an army at its back; but unjust, malignant at- tacks, made with the intention of villi- fying and injuring us, are different. Farmers rever were in better temper to demand their full rights and full profits for their labor than they are to- day.—H. H. Carr.

But She Diagnosed the Case Rather Strangely. “Even novices in medicine run to the experimental, as I have oceasion to remember,” tells a citizen whose word is never called in question, says the Detroit Free Press, “I visited an old aunt of mine this summer, and, while reveling in rural enjoyments I fell out of a cherry tree. There seemed to be a general jarring and shaking up of the system that I thought demanded the attention of a doctor, but aunt prides herself on knowing more than half the men who practice medicine and is committed to the old school of economy. She would bring me round all right. It would be a shame to send for a high-priced physician just to relieve a few bruises. Of course I was sore internally, for that was to be expected. The first remedy admin- istered was catnip tea, which I took with that rebellious spirit begotten of childhood experiences. Then wild onion poultices were scattered judici- ously over my person. Failure of re- lief caused my feet to be soaked in hot water and wood ashes, the lye distilled becoming so aggressive that I kicked the bucket over and repudiated the treatment. This was accepted as a premonition of brain fever, and a red- hot mustard draught was applied to the back of my neck. To the same end my head was thoroughly soaked in spring water. I entered a special com- plaint as to my side and a poultice of grated horseradish was the answer. In response to a demand for some ex- hilarant I was given sassafras tea. I was disposed to insist on brandy, but this was another brain-fever symptom, and more spring water was called into requisition. At length I surreptitious- ly hired a neighbor to go for a reput- able physician.” “Did he effect a cure?” “Oh, yes. I had a broken rib.” VAGARIES OF GENIUS, Macaulay Liked to Smash the Wine Glasses, Macaulay, the historian, always used to eat his Sunday dinner alone and at a restaurant. When he had finished, he generally built up a pyramid of wine-glasses, which he delighted to see topple over, says an exchange. When he left the restaurant he used to pay liberally for the broken glass as well as for the dinner. Cowper, the poet, was a great had for pets. At one time he possessed a squirrel, a cat, two dogs, several canary birds, a starl- ing, a jay, a magpie, two guinea pigs, three hares and five rabbits. When- ever the soldierly duke of Epernay saw a hare it made him sick, and once he kept his bed for a week after one of these little animals touched him. It is said that Rembrandt, the great artist, loved his pet monkey next to money; that-he shed tears when the creature died and painted a portrait of it from memory. Tradition has it that Philip, the duke of Burgundy, devoted much of his time to contriving trap doors in his house and grounds for the purpose of sousing unwary strangers in water holes underneath them. Car- dinal Richelieu loved cats as much as he hated children. When he died his favorite Angora cat refused to eat and soon died also. When traveling, Han- del, the composer, used to order din- ner for three, if very hungry for five and then eat the whole himself. Pigz were the favorite pets of Harris, the poet. He used to teach them to follow him about and one of unusual intelli- gence he taught to drink beer out of a mug. HOW ABOUT YOUR CHIN? Drunkards usually have a circular fine about their chins. Square chins, with little flesh, denote firmness and good executive ability. The owners make good haters. Broad chins signify nobleness and large dignity, unless vertically thin, when if thin, blaodless lips go with them you will find cruelty. The chin, taken in connection with the rest of the face, is almost as good an index of character as is the thumb. Slovens have wrinkles around theit chins. i Owners of long, thin chins are poet- ical, unstable and delicate in constitu- tion. If thin about the angles of the mouth the owner is liable to tubercu- losis and is generally short lived. Protruding chins characterize men and women of the get-there type. Suc- cessful people usually carry their chins thrust forward, with compressed lips. If this style of chin is heavy and swell- ing it denotes fighting blood. A retreating chin shows lack of force mentally, morally and physically; the owner is of the yielding kind, soon dis- couraged, needs protection and has small executive force. The develop- ment of other facilities usually makes up for this lack. Medium chins, with a suggestive bi- furcation in the center on the order of a dimple, with small mounds of flesh on either side, characterize generosity, impulsiveness and a cheery nature. The same size chins, with a dab of flesh un- der the center of the lower lip, indicate meanness, selfishness and brutality. A small, well rounded chin indicates a pleasure loving nature, and if dim- pled, all the more so, for dimpled chins belong to coquettes. People with dimples love to be petted and liked, and are fond of admiration and praise. They are generally fickle. Usually the oowner of this chin is healthy, recuper- ative and long lived, The difference between a planet and a star is this: A star shines by its own light; a planet by light reflected from another body. ; | } | j | Spinal Disease and Nervous Prostration. No Affection of the Spine is Possible Except Accompanied by Most, Serious Nerve Disorders — An- other Case Where a Nerve Food was Successfal. From the Journal, Detroit, Mich. “Disease of the spinal cord and nervous prostration, was what the doctors called it at first.” Mrs. Rose Tapley, of No. 721 Harrison Street, Ionia, Mich., said yester- day to a reporter, “but it was not long be- fore every organ and member of my body was affected. There was a continuous beating at the Wee of my stomach, my head ached on until I thought I should grow in- sane. I felt as if I were smothering, and my legs would become so weak that I had to drop when I felt the spells coming on. As for sleep, that was out of the question (except little cat naps), for in addition to the feelings I have attempted to describe, Thad neuralgia, and for six months I kept | getting worse and worse. At last I was confined to my b: lin October, 1894, “T have nearly always thought it was la gripe,” Mrs. Tapley continued, “though the doctor never would say so. Whatever it was, however, it kept getting worse and worse (especially my head and nerves) and I thought I should die. But I dragged ona wretched existence until about one year ago, when while I was reading the Detroit Journal and Saranac Weekly, I saw a long account of a similar case to my own being cured by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. I made up my mind to try those pills, and so procured a supply ond began taking them according to direc- tions. I took them faithfully, gave them, in fact, a most thorough trial, and, I am happy to say, with splendid results, so that now my heart’s action is normal, my back and spine give me very little trouble, all neuralgic and rheumatic pains have left me. I have no headache whatever, and after the hell that I suffered my life is now like heaven. “I can not say too much in praise of these Pills. You may use all the adulatory language of which you are capable,” Mrs. Tapley said to the reporter, “and I will en- dorse it. Ihave never tired of recommend- ing the pills to my neighbors (and my +is- ter who is a school teacher, and had a hor- rible time with her nerves and loss of mem- ory, at my suggestion is taking Dr. Wil- liams’ ‘remedy and is being rapidly cured.) “Read over what you have written,” Mrs. Tapley requested. "After listening atten- tively to what she had dictated she said: “T can sign that statement with the great est pleasure,” and when the last remark was entered the lady signed her name to the reporter's notes thu: [Signed] Mrs. Rosa TaPLey, 721 Harrison Street, Ionia, Mich.

N. Y. THE COMING STATE FAIR. A Host of Entries and Numerous Amusements and Carnival Events. As the day approaches for the begin- ning of the State Fair—Sept. 6th—ev- eryone connected with the manage- ment grows enthusiastic over the prospect. Col. Liggett, who is in charge of the cattle department, re-) ports more and better entries than ever before. The awards are so fairly made, the accommodations for cattle are so superior, and the prizes are paid so promptly that exhibitors ob- tain them before leaving the grounds— all of these considerations make the Minnesota State Fair a favorite resort for the breeders. The same applies to every department of the Fair. Mr. Cooley of Duluth, who is in charge of the county exhibits and Ag- ricultural Hall, reports that, in a build- | ing 250x350, there will not be a foot of vacant space. Mr. R. D. McGinnis, who is in charge of the Exposition Building, reports a mercantile and woman’s work dispiay such as has never before been present- ed on the grounds. Mr. L. C. Pryor, in charge of ma- chinery and. vehicles of all descrip- tions, reports that every shed and building in that department has been | engaged. The races will surpass any previous year, there being 125 entries, many of them being among the famous horses of the country. The purses aggregate $7,500, which assures first-class races. There will be a bicycle day, with thirty-four prizes, aggregating $500. But it is hardly necessary to enumer- ate, The exhibits throughout will sur- pass anything heretofore seen in the Northwest. On the principle that “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” the managers have provided a great vari- ety of amusements, so that the visitor can combine information and _ sport. Sept. 6th to 11th will be red-letter days in the history of Minnesota. ‘There will be free carnival events every night in the week in the Twin Cities, and all the railroads give one fare for the round trip.
