WHY NOT OWN UNO?
BREAKS A COLD PROMPTLY
GfflDam qkhlqs
WHAT'S THE ANSWER?
A young man stood before his mir-
ror, putting the finishing touches to a
toilet of which he felt justly proud.
He was going to call upon The
Girl's widowed mother to ask her
daughter's hand in marriage.
Everything was ready but his tie.
Before him, on the dressing-table,
rested two creations, between which
his choice now lay. One, a dream of
black, striped narrowly with white,
which he had himself purchased. The
other, a nightmare, which The Girl
had given him for a present—a tie
such as women only buy.
"If I wear the black and white I'll
look my best," he mused, "but if I
wear the one She gave me, I'll please
her immensely."
Then he whistled, walked around
the room, and tied his tie.
The mother said: "Yes," although
there were tears in her eyes, and The
Girl thought he was the handsomest,
best-dressed fellow in the world.
Which tie did he wear?
CONCERNING BANDITS.
The highwayman who robs a stago
In some far western solitude
But perpetrates in cowboy style
An exploit crude.
The cracksman who can drill a safe
With tempered tools to serve his need
Can boast not that he has perfoiir.ed
A daring deed.
The burglar who with nonchalance
Can carry off a red-hot stove
Is not the peer of those who swlp
Their treasure trove.
The robber whom wo fear the most,
On whom our eyes with terror look,
Is she who carries off from us
A red-hot cook.
McLandburgh Wilson, in N. T. Herald.

Proof Positive.
"One can't help knowing," said a
dandy, "when one is good looking.
Why, I got off at a small station the

confess that I attracted a great deal

Iowa State Register thus tersely ex-
presses a well-known truth. The qucs-
tion is where is the best land to bo

the writer has a personal interest in ,
the statement of his case, and there is
no hidden meaning when he refers to 1
Western Canada as presenting great-
er possibilities than any other part of |
the American Continent, to the man
who is inclined to till the soil for a
livelihood and possible competence.
What interests ono are the arguments
advanced by this writer, and when
fairly analyzed the conclusion is
reached that no matter what personal
Interest the writer may have had, his
reasons appear to have the quality of
great soundness. The climatic condi-
tions of Western Canada are fully as
good as those of Minnesota, the Dako-
tas or Iowa, tho productiveness of tho
soil is as great, tho social conditions
are on a parity, the laws are as well
established and as carefully observed. 1
In addition to these the price of land I
is much less, easier to secure. So, with |
advantages, why shouldn't this i

An Appropriate Name.
Capt. Sealby of one of the White
Star line's boats, was explaining to
some passengers that his company
had considerable difficulty in finding
names for their new ships.
"They all have to end in 'ic,' you
know," the captain explained.
A voyager, who was pale and seedy,
said, as he looked dismally at the
rolling ocean:
"For an appropriate name, I would
suggest 'Seasic.'"—Judge.
Opposed to Toll Roads.
Maryland, following the recent lead
of Pennsylvania, is moving to abolish
toll j-oads. Gov. Crothers has ex-
pressed tho hope that before his term
Is ended every tollgate in tho state
will be abolished and every road free.
He believes that the work of the good
roads commission will ultimately re-
sult in wiping out the gates. "The toll-
gate," says the governor, "is not of
this age and has no proper place in
this time. It is ridiculous to think of
charging people motley for coming to
your city."

awhile complaints are heard, but the j
Canadians have never spoken of tho i
country as an Eldorado no matter
what they may have thought. The

two extracts are submitted. These go

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
t>y local applications, as they cannot roach the dla
eased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that la by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube Is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Im-
perfect hearing, and when It Is entirely closed. Deaf-
ness Is the result, and unless the Inflammation can bo
taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condi-
tion. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine rases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an Inflamed condltlsn of the mucous surfaces.

When shown positive and reliable proof that a certain
remedy had cured numerous cases of female ills, wouldn't
any sensible woman conclude that the same remedy would
also benefit her if suffering with the same trouble ?
Here are two letters which prove the efficiency of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Rod Hanks, Miss. — "Words are Inadequate to express wliut
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound lias done for inc. I
suffered front a female disease and weakness which the doe-
tors said was caused by a fibroid tumor, and I commenced to
think there was no help for me. Lydia H. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound rnado me a well woman after all other means had
failed. My friends are all asking what lias helped me so much,
and I gladly recommend Lydia JE. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound."—Mrs. Willie Edwards.
Hampstead, Maryland.—" TScfore taking Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound 1 was weak and nervous, and could not
be on my feet half a day wit bout suffering. The doctors told
me 1 never would lie well without an operation, but Lydia L.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done more for me than all
the doctors, and I hope this valuable medicine may come into
the hands of many more suffering women."—Mrs. Joseph II.
Dandy.
We will pay a handsome reward to any person who will
prove to us that these letters are not genuine and truthful
— or that cither of these women were paid in any way for
their testimonials, or that the letters are published without
their permission, or that the original letter from each did
not come to us entirely unsolicited.
What more proof can any one ask ?
For HO years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for
female ills. No sick woman does justice to
herself who will not try this famous medicine.
