In Japan the old-school physicians are permitted to wear only wooden swords. This is a gently sarcastic way of expressing the opinion that they kill enough people without any weapons. But the druggist who introduced Dr. Pietre’s Golden Medical Discovery into the Empire carries a fine steel blade. It was found that all who tried this wonderful remedy in coughs, colds, consumptive tendencies, blood, rum and liver troubles, were without exception greatly benefited. The Mikudo himself is said to have “toned up” his system by its use, and the importer was therefore permitted the exceptional honor of wearing the sword of nobility.

On and after June 1, 1888 the price of gas consumed in gas stoves, when used through separate meters, will be $1.75 per 1000 feet whenever the amount consumed is over 1000 feet in one month, with the usual rebate of 25 cents per 1000 feet for prompt payment making the net price $1.50 per 1000 cubic feet. At this low price the entire cooking for a family will cost from $1,00 to $8,00 per month, according to the amount of cooking done. For actual cost of using, convenience and perfection of cooking we refer to over 25 consumers who have large gas ranges now in use. We have a large life line of gas stoves and ranges, for both cooking and heating to select from which we sell at cost, at from $1.50 for a boiling stove to $26 for a large Range, also hot water generators for heating water for set boilers or baths. Please call and examine. Arthur G. Fox, Supt the Marshall Light Co. Office and Sales Room 95 State St.

The tale of the lamb
Mary had a little lamb,
its fleece was white as snow;
and everywhere that Mary went,
friends asked- How came it so?
Some said it was the food it ate!
While others loud declared
The whiteness due to bleaching wash,
By chemist’s skill prepared.
But no one guessed the simple truth;
nor did she ever tell
The secret of the snowy fleece,
was found by washing well
With Santa Claus soap the greasy wool
That otherwise would be as yellow or as dirty white.
as any lamb you see.
Santa Claus Soap is as good to wash children as lambs- Its the soap for all kinds of washing.

Hello! Helloe! there! Mr.Digestion! What’s the matter with you down there?
Hello! Mr. Tongue is that you? Oh, everything is wrong down here. The bonds in the Gastric Works have “struck”.
