The Raw Food Theory. Professor B. Tyler of Indianapolis says that human life would average three or four times longer than it does if people would reject the senseless practice of cooking their food. Animals and fowl live much longer in proportion to the pe riod of full development than man.' "Man. for some unknown reason, eats dead cells (cooked cellsj to replace the dead cells that have been separated from the body. In cooking food all the acids and gases so necessary for the conservation' and preservation of ideal health escape with the steam, and the food retains a greater supply of ash. lime and other such sub stances thr.n nature requires for the amount of food taken into the system." Old men often give advice to young "men and they also give up money to confidence men occasionally.

Woman will be strong and lusty; broad, and heavy in build, and will be very proud of her large feet, thick wrists, powerful limbs and great muscular development, while men will have growi! .din of their trimly-corseted waists, nicf rink-and-white complexions and soft, gen tle voices.

LOVE-LETTERS OF PRINCE MARCK, BIS- In the selections from the "Lve-Tr;-ters of Prince Bismarck," in Harper' -; for February, we have a curious pic ture of the Iron Chancellor, at the ajv of 30, endeavoring to persuade hi fiancee to write to him in French, and showing the real sentiment of his na ture by such bits as this: "On my window-sill, among all sorts of crocuses and hyacinths, stand two camellias which always inspire me with strange thoughts. One of them, slender and pretty, with its ornamental crown (top) and soft, pale, very pale, pink blossoms, but little foliage and only two buds, transports me to Reddetin, holds itself rather stiffly and lisps Eng lish. The other makes far less impres sion of beauty as you look at it, and its stalk betrays in its gnarled twisting lack of care in its pruning. From the midst of the foliage looks out a dead branch, but the crown is rich in leaves and the foliage is greener than that of its neighbor? it gives promise of abun dant blossoming in its eight buds, and its color is deep dark red and white in Irregular gay variegation. Do you take the comparison amiss? It is a lame comparison, moreover, for I do not love camellias, because they are without odor, and you I love precisely on ac count of the fragrance of the flower of your spirit, which is white, dark, red, and black." i.., u v. l. u j t vv i.Ta.a.n J1 null vitlf his armor doffed.

We do not hear beekeepers telling stories against the dah lia nowadays, hut it was decidedly a sus pect in former days. Authorities held tnat tne cultivation of the dahlia was quite incompatible with successful bee keeping. The bees, it used to be said, were rendered drunk and incapable by feeding on the honey of those flowers. Some would die from the effects, while those that recovered made little or no honey when they arrived home at the hive. Loudon Express. Be Cleared Out.

Foul-Smelling Catarrh. - Catnrrh is one of the most obstinate diseases, and hence the most difficult to get rid of. There is but one way to cure it. The disease is in the blood, and all the Bprays, washes and inhaling mixtures in the world can have no permanent effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe cific cures Catarrh permanently, for it is the only remedy which can reach the disease and force it from the blood. Mr. B. P. McAllister, of Harrodsburg, Ky., had Catarrh for, years. He writes: "I could see no improvement whatever, Bkough I was -constantly treated with sprays ana was ties, ana differ ent inhaling remedies In fact, I could feel that each winter I was wors than the year previous "Finally It waji brought to my notice that Catarrh was a bl ood disease, and after think ing over the matter, 1 saw It was unreasonable to expect to be cured by remedies whi ch only reached the surface. I then decided to try 8. 8. S and after a few bottles were used, I no ticed a perceptible improvement. Continuing the remedy, the disease was forced out of my system, and a complete cure was the result I advise all who have this dreadful disease to abandon their local treatment, which has nevei done them any good, and take S. S. ., a rem' edy that can reach the disease and cure it." To continue the wrong treatment for Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's Specific is a real blood remedy, and cures obstinate, deep-seated diseases, which other remedies have no effect whatever upon. It promptly reaches Uatarrh, and never fails to cure even the most aggravated cases. is Purely Vegetable, and is the only blood remedy guaranteed to contain no langerous minerals Books mailed free by Swift Specific Company, Atlanta, deorgia NOTICE.
