"Just then Tom told m.e to get him a thick piece of canvas known as a nipper and used to hold on to the line.

The question really seems worthy of some consideration in view of the size of some of the pills that are prescribed for sutiering humanity. Why not throw them "to the dogSj' and take Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets? Small, sugar-coated, purely vegetable, perfectly harmless, in glass and always fresh. Men are often cipable of greater things than they perform. They are" sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw to their full extent. "I find the doctors and the sages Have differed in all climes and .ages," But I have found no difference of opinion among the female sages who have used Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription as a remedy for the weaknesses and ailments peculiar to their se.x. "Favorite Prescription" is a posi- tive cure for the most complicated and ob- stinp.te cases of prolapsus, weak back, "fe- male weaknes.?," anteversion, retroversion, bearing-do-wn sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration, inflammation, pain and tenderness. The only remedy for such maladies sold under a guarantee. Par- ticulars on bottle-wi apper. All druggists. Truth and love are two of the most pow- erful things in the world and when they both go together they cannot easily be -withstood. The golden beams of trutli and the silken cords of love twisted together will draw men with a sweet violence whether they -will or not. " Change" for a Quarter "Change," "Variety," "(iive us some- thing dilTerent," is the cry of the century, and to meet this deniiind for something ever new is the s'tudy of all business men, to a greater or lesser extent. It would seem im- possilde to find anything that really is "ever- new," btit we ijelieve that the (Jreenw.iod Convertible Basket oomes as near it as pf.ssible. Have you seen tliis wfmderful little invention? It is, as its name implies, adjustable or Convertible, and can be adapted to a most astounding v.-iiiety of hotiseiipld ptirposes, such as a Lamp .Shade, Fruit Basket, Card Receiver, Kgg Boiler, Iron Stand, Water Heater, etc., etc., in fact there seems to be no limit to its adaptabil- ity, so that it is .always "something new." Agents say that it is ahead of any Novelty, and as they judge by their sales they should be authorities. The Cassgreen Mnfg Co., of 58 Victoria St..
