THE SOPHISTRY OF
THE GOLD BEICK.
From those times when the si
chemist sought to gain pure gold
from base metals, he has not been
without his successors through
ages, in the various schemes and
projects that have been started to
get something good from nothing,
That human trait, the desire for
riches by the quick route, keeps
the ranks of imposters always full.
It is such a quickening sensation
to think that "a sucker is born
every minute," and that the afore
said "sucker" is full grown and
has money or collateral converti
l)le, is an added joy to those who
live by their wits, usually most
dishouestly.
The strength of the imposters
and the faker's position is, that the
person who gets deceived and los
os, is ashamed and will not ask
for the police or a public investl
gation. This makes the concerns op
orating the get rich-quick swindle
al most secure against seizure and ar
rest. There is always the possible
success in speculation, that at
tracts. The lottery that has du-
appeared, offered a capital prize
that one person might be forthnp.te
to reach, and today stock in oil
wells, in all kinds of mines, the
bucket shop, margin trading in
Wall street and the various ei
changes, offer the public seemingly
safe routes to get rich quick. Like
the apparent go'.d brick, that is
offered so cheaply, that it is a
bargain and attracts the buyer, SO
are all get-rich quick offers. Hu
man cupidity overrides human dis
cretion, when the tempation offers
to much for little. Base and
those cieature comforts, so dear .to
the flesh loom up, as the possible
chance to make "big money" is
presented, and the risk is taken.
Every argument, all reason is
against this advent to sudden
weulth, but as well attempt to dis
suade the alchemist of old against
his gold theory, as to try to prove
to the man or woman of today that
weal Hi m.iy not be found in the
schemes of get rich quick concerns.
The answer is in the cure thereof,
by the person who has tried to take
the royal road to quick riches and
failed.

How to Remove Blood Stain.
A mother whose cUthlreu bave a. rep
rehensible habit of cutting their firr
gera and spottlnt; with "blood rtielr besl
frocks baa found n method of remov
ing blood stains, and she says that the
finest white fabrics, will not be Injured
by It?' "If the stain Is dry," she says,
"moisten It and cover it with dr
starch, patting It Into a thick rusl
and moistening whenever necessary.
Let this stay on for two or three hours.
If this does not absorb all the st iln
repeat the whole process. A wet stain
should be taken out as much as pos
sible by allowing lukewarm water to
run through the part. After the stain
has been reduced in color by this meth
od the starch may be applied as de
scribed. No ugly stain will reuinin
after this treatment with starch."
LOST HER HAIR.
Woman Almost Baldheaded drew Four
Inches of Hair.
Here Is a piece of live news from
Browntown, Minn., that ought to in
terest skeptical men or women read
ers of the Journal who are losing their
hair or have dandruff or itching scalp.
Remember that Brad ham Drug Co.
sells Parisian Sage under a positive
guarantee to stop falling hair and Itch
ing scalp and eradicate dandruff in
two weeks.
Parisian Sage is a most refreshing
and daintily perfumed hair dressing,
free from grease or stickiness. It
makes dull, lifeless hair radiant and
lustrous.
"Parisian Sage is the best hair grow
er and beautifler and dandruff cure. I
lost all my hair througn typhoid fever; j
i was almost Daianeaaea ana my soaip
was as sore as could be. I tried ev
erything, but in vain. Finally I tried
Parisian Sage, and after using one
bottle my hair started to grow, and
has grown three or four Inches inside
of two months. I advise every lady
who wants beautiful hair to use Pa
risian Sage." Miss Meta M. Kruger,
Browntown, Minn., June 8, 1910.
Parisian Sage is only 50 cents a
large bottle at Brad ham Drug Qp. and
