The Face That Kills.

Score Yearn and Ten u Kipe Old
Age In Those Days.
(From the Cincinnati Enquirer )
The American people live too fi'.st, rat
too fast and drink too fast. This lias
brought upon many of us a train of nervous
and stomach disorders that are very diffi-
cult to manage. Investigation and chemical
analysis to discover such compounds as will
help those suffering lrom such ills has re-
sulted in the discovery of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People, which has taken
very high rank as a specific remedy.
H. P. Owens, a traveling inau thirty
years of age. who is well Known in#thia
rommunity and generally liked because ho
is a bright, energetic young lellow, resides
with his mot) W at 885 * antral Avenue,
Cincinnati. Ohio. 11< has been a victim ot
dyspepsia which took the form of continu-
ous constipation, and, strangely enough,
his mother suffered from the same trouble.
Mr. Owens testified to tin- merits of Pink
Pills in a most enthusiastic way, and said
to the Enquirer reporter:
k,l am glad to say anything I can for Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, because they did nie.
great good, and other people ought to know
of their virtues as a medicine in stomach
troubles. It was some lime ago when I
felt a heavy feelingrin in; stomach, and I
grew very constipated. 1 did not consult a
doctor, but having heard of the Pink Pills 1
bought a box of them. In two ov three
days the heavy fceliug in my stomach dis-
appeared and my bowels were regular. I
did not have to use more than a Ik>x of
them before I was well. Since that time I
have only occasionally been troubled with
coustijmiion, and 1 never get worried, be-
cause 1 know just what to do. Mother was
also troubled with indigestion and the
Pink Pills did the same for her they did
for me—cured her, didn't they, mother."
When appealed to Mrs. Owens answered:
"That is right. 1 found it was a great
medicine, so easy to take and so quick and
lasting in its results."
Mr. Owens continued: 4,I believe that
these pills are also good fpr nervousness.
When 1 had my stomach trouble I was also
quite nervous and that disappeared with
the dyspepsia. ThePiak Pills were all that
is claimed lor them. You can make any
use of this testimonial you see lit."
II. P. Owens has occupied several posi-
tions of trust in this city. lie was for a
time an employe of the Commercial-Gazette,
lie will go on the road in a few days for a
prominent business house here. Mrs.
Owens is quite as enthusiastic as her son
about the Pink Pills and her host of lady
friends can verify her good opinion of this
wonderful remecfy if they feel disposed to
do so at any time. Where the testimony
is so general and unanimous as to the ex-
cellencies of Pink fills as the lOnquirerhas
found it to be there is certainly good reason
to believe all the good things said—about
the safe and simple remedy.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
contain all the elements necessary to give
new life and richness to the bloou and re-
store shattered nerves. They may be had
of all druggists or direct by mail from the
Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Schenec-
tady, N. Y., at 50c per box, or six boxes for
12.50.
^ here Wat* tin* <;arden « ' KUen?
The true s'te of the Harden of
Eilen has been the subject of almost
endless controversy and conjecture.
The thrc^ continents of tlie Old
World have been ironc over by the
theologians and antiquarians in a
vain search for its nost probable loca-
tion. From ( hina to Hie Canary
Islands and from the Mountains of
ihi" Moon to the coast of the Baltic,
each country has been the subject of
careful search. Kvcry spot in Europe,
Asia, and Africa that could possibly
be Ihe place designated in the first
chaptorof Genesis lias been examined
and vet, says the Philadelphia l'ress,
no place has been found that corre-
sponds <• veil in t he slightest decree
with the scriptural account of ihe
Hist aiiode of t he progenitors of the
human mce One of the most ancient,
opinions, that given by .losephns, is
'hilt it was in the country which lies
between the (lanjes'anct the Mile.
This view imagines Eden as being a
very widely-extended Country, em-
I racing all that vast territory which
is bounded on the east by the Indus
and 'Hi the: west by Kgypt's great
water-course. As the ''Garden" is
said to have been "to the eastward
in Eden," .losephns places it indeti-
nitely in the valley of trie Kuphrates.
Von Hammer, the famous oriental
scholar, places it in llactria; others
locate it in Babylonia, at the con-
fluence of the Euphrates and the
Tigris. Caut. Will'ord, a profound
student of Eastern antiquaries, has
labored for years to locate Eden in
Batnian, south of the Keush .Mount-
ains. Huttinan puts it. down as being
in India: Hcider, in his "History of
Mankind," identities it with the
present vale of Cashmere. Many
oriental seels believe it was on the
island of Ceylon, while the Greeks
place it at Beth Edon. on l.ebiinon.
Lastly, many eminent scholars regard
the whole story as being a gigantic
myth.

Hroke the Tobacco Trust.
St. Louis, Mo., (Special) Col. Wm.
A. Klrchholif, general western manager
of the American Tobacco Co., has
startled his numerous friends by stop-
ping the use of tobacco. For years he
had smoked twenty strong cigars daily,
and a lees quantity would leave him
nervous and ill. The habit was under-
mining his health, and he tried to quit,
but could not, until he took No-lo-
Bac, the medical miracle that has cured
so many thousands of tobacco-users. ;
Col. Kirchhoff's craving for tobacco has |
entirely gone, and he feels better than !
ever before. lie is a great No-To-Bac
enthusiast now. Over 1100,000 bad to- j
bncco-users have been cured by No-
To-Bac, and the loss to tobacco manu-
facturers is easily over $10,000,000 a
year.

Tin; Center of Population.
l'.v tin? census of 1890 the center ot
population Is in latitude ."!!> degrees
i I minutes and !l seconds north, and
longitude 85 degrees 32 minutes aud 9
seconds west, about twenty miles east
of Columbus, lnd., and about tlfty-
six miles west by south of Cincinnati.
The position of the center of popula-
tion is reachca in this manner: A
point was taken as near as possible
to the actual center of population,
and a parallel of latitude and a
meridian ot longitude were drawn
through it. The population of the
country was liters grouped in square
degrees, and the number of the popu-
lation in each square; degree multi-
plied by the number of miles from
the assumed meridian, or by the num-
ber of degrees from the assumed
parallel. The products of the first
multiplication were eiist and west
moments, of the second Multiplica-
tion north and south moments. The
difference between the sums of the
north and south moments, divided by
the number of the total population,
showed whether the assumed parallel
was north or south of the real center
of population, and similarly it was
ascertained whether the assumed
meridian was cast or west of the
actual center; and from the results,
toe parallel and meridian of the
actual center of population were de-
duced.

Should there happen to be a baby
in the family, and yet at the same
time an unpleasant shrinkage in the
family bank account, so t hat a nurso
girl is regarded as au impossibility,
don't be discouraged. Get an old-
fashioned clothes basket made of
twisted willow, line it with thickly
wadded, quitted, or tufed silk, just
as you prefer. Then put the basket
on the lioor, and this time, instead of
Ellii'.;; it with clothes, just gently drop
in the Iiabv. The basket is peculiarly
adapted to the needs of a baby who
is just, learning to stand alone. Its
chief merit consists in its safety, for
when the baby is once inside it can-
not possibly be harmed, and may
stand tip or sit down according to its
own sweet youthful will. The basket
from which this idea is taken was
lined with a faint shade of pink
wadded silk, the out-ide and handles
being silvered. A rattle tied to the
basket and a rag doll were its sole
decorations, and these were quite
sutlicient, according to the baby's
icka. With one of these baskets in
the nursery the baby ma.i be safely
left alone for a short time and be
amused as well.
