Cheap, with a Pirate’s Shade ~ Thrown In. _ | IT SHOOK THE LAST TENANT. 7 { Then the Tenant Shook the House, and Now There Is a Vacancy for Any One with Nerve Enough to Tackle a Spook. The ghost In the Sanders farm-house, ear pack, has alarmed the com- ™unity since {t throttled Elmer Hill, and now the owner of tHe place {8 un- | able to find any one who will go near it. For years there had been stories ©f spooks about the house, but little stock was taken in them until Hill, a young and reliable farmer, took posses- @ion and was attacked by the ghostly visitor. Five other persons witnessed ; the attack and vouch for the truth. fe A more ideal rendezvous for a par- BY ticular and exclusive ghost could not well bo imagined. I; is belleved that the Sanders farm-house has been stand- tng ovar 200 years. It is on a lonely Toad and in a desolate spot. Its walls fre of stone and clay, four feet thick and the doors are double, with hand- made hinges and nails. It is of the arly Dutch pattern. There are great fireplaces at elther end and all over the house there are mysterious panels and bulgings in the walls and trap- @oors in the floors, In the cellar is a ; spring of cold water which runs through ® subterranean channel. Built by a Pirate. The most common story of Its origin fm that tt was built by a Frenchman named Berjeron In the latter part of the seventeenth century, a hundred years before the Revolutionary war. Ho had been a pirate, one of the thrift- fest in the business in those days, and he ‘had built thie place as his last home. Gtorles are still told of the many per- fons who called on the old sea rover nd who were never aggin seen alive. The inference invariably was that he murdered his visitors and secreted what wealth they had. In those days “travellers going that way usually car- rled thelr money with them. Concern- ing the bulgings in tne walls and the panels, it was told that possibly they eoncealed the fortune of the old bu- cancer. It is positively known that Ablijah ®tevens was born in this house In 1740 @nd that he Ilved there until his death, minety yeare later. After that a dozen men have iad the farm and from each have come stories of peculiar noises in the house, of ghosts and things. Ghost Disturbs Honeymoon, Elmer Hill, whose ancestors have Mved in this vicinity for several gen- erations, was married a few months @go and took the Sanders farm to work on shares, renting it from the present owner, Postmaster George 8.

OLD PEOPLE Do not always receive the kindly attention and loving sympathy which they deserve. Their ailments are too often regarded as purely imaginary, or natural and unavoidable attheir time of life, Disease and infirmity . should not always be associated with oldage. The eye ¢ of the gray haired grandsire may be as bright and the 4 complexion as fair as any of his younger and more % vigorous companions. Good Blood Is the secret of, healthy old age, for it regulates and controls every part of the body, strengthens the nerves, makes the muscles elastic and supple, the bones strong and the flesh firm; but when this life fluid is polluted or poisoned and loses its nutri- tive, health sustaining elements, then there is a rapid decline of the vital powers, resulting in premature old ageand disease. Any derange- ment of the blood quickly shows itself in an ulcer, sore, wart, tumor or some other troublesome growth upon the body, and rheumatic and neuralgic pains become almost constant, accompanied with poor digestion and cold extremities. S. S. S, being purely vegetable, is the safest and best blood purifier for old people. It does not shock or hurt the system like the strong mineral remedies, but gently and thoroughly cleanses the j blood and stimulates the debilitated organs, when | all bodily ailments disappear, S.S. S, is just such a tonic as old people need to improve a weak digestion and tone up the Stomach. If there is any hereditary taint, or the remains of some disease contracted in early life, S. S.
