THE ONWARD HATCH of Connmption ia stopped short bjr Dr. Pierce's Golden Med jcml Diacovery. If you haven't waited beyond reaaon, there' complete re covery and cure. Although by many believed to be, incur able, there ia the evidence of hundred of living; witnesses to the fart that, in all it earlier stages, con- nmnlinii is a rurahJ disease. Not every case, but a large per- cenlagt oj (asrs, and ' we believe, fully 1M met reel, are cured by Dr. Pierce'a Golden Medical Diicovery, even after the disease has prorressed so fax as to induce repeated bleeding's from tfce lungs, severe lingering cough with copious eipectoration (including tubercu lar matter), great loss of flesh and eatreme emaciation and weakness. Do you doubt that hundreds of such canes reported to ns as cured by " Golden Med ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that dread and fatal disease ? Vou need not take ear word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best aad moat eiperienced home physicians, who have no interest whatever in mis representing theru, and who were often strongly prejudiced and advised against s trial of Golden Medical Discovery," but who have been forced to confess that it anrpaases, in curative power over this falsi malady, all other medicines with which tbey are acquainted. Nasty cod liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these casta and had either utterly failed to bene fit, or bad only seemed to benefit a little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey, and various preparations of the hypophos phites had also been faithfully tried in vain. The photographs of a large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering eoufba, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh snd kindred maladies, have been skillfully reproduced in s book of 160 pases which will be mailed to you, on re ceipt of addreas and six cents in stamps. Yon csa then write those cured snd learn their experience. AddreaaWosLD's Disr-KN-saar Mkuical Association, Buffalo, N Y. WALTER BAKER & GO.

Lomt Vkrontcl-t One of the most couapicuoos 6auree la the 8tegeiaixJ of Amtrict to-day is John W. Norton. Bora ia the seventh ward of New York city forty-six yeers afo, the friends of his youth were Thomas W. Keeue sod Frsuk Cuanfrau. We find Keene s star st the see of 25 aud Norton in the Hower of early manhood, the lead ing men for Kdwiu Booth st the fatuous W inter Garden Theater. He waa starred with Lawrence Barrett early iu the '7U's, and alternated the leading rolee with Charles T borne st the Variety Theater in New Orleans. Early in the Centennial yesr, in Louisville, Norton met our Mary Anderson, then a fair young girl who as pired for atsge fame, took ber under his guidance and, as everybody knows, led ner to fsuie. Mr. Norton ia now the pro prietor of the tiraud ()ers House In St. lxiuia, the Iu ytieane Theater, I'ittaburg, sod one of the stockholders in the Ameri can Extravaganza Company. One afteruoon early iu June he hobbled into bis New York office on Broadway snd encountered bis busiueaa manager, tiMorge McManus, who had also been a rheumatic sufferer for two years. Nor ton wss surprised that McMsuus bad dis carded his cane. Who cured you? hu asked. '"I cured myself," replied Mc Manus, "with Dr. Williams' 1'iuK I'ills." "1 was encouraged by Mr. McManus' cure, and as a last resort tried the 1'iuk I'ills myself," said Mr. Norton to a Chron icle reporter. "You hare kuown me for five years, sad know how I hsve suffered. Why. during the summer of 1813 1 was on my back at the Mullunpby Hospital, ia this city, four weeks. I was put on the old system of dieting, with s view to clear ing those acidulous properties in my blood that medicsl theorists say is the cause of m rheumatism. I left the hospital feel ing Stronger, but the first dump weather brought with it those excruciating pains in the lega snd back. It wss the same old trouble. After sittiug down for a stretch of five minutes, the pains screwed my legs into s knot when I nrose. and I hob bled ss painfully as ever. After I hsd laken my first box of I'ink I'ills, it struck me that the pains were less troublesome. 1 tried another box, and 1 begnu almost unconsciously to hare faith In the I'ink Fills. I improved so rapidly tbst I could rise sfter sitting at my desk for au hour sad the twinges of rheumatism that ac rampsnied my rising were so mild tbst I scarcely noticed them. During the past two weeks, we have bad much rainy weather in St. Iouls. But the dampness has not bad the slightest effect in bringing back the rheumatism, which I consider a sufficient snd reliable test of the efficacy of Pink I'ills. 1 may also say that the Pink I'ills hare acted aa a tonic on my ttoeaacb, which I thought was well nigh destroyed by the thoussud snd one alleged remedies I consumed in the past five fears." lllua Laws of Massachusetts.

Will Tempter, In Farm and Home. The Old-Faahloaed Country School. They bad do curriculum, no notions of "time allotments" and "harmonious development" and "logical sequence," and the rest of it, but only a simple and direct way of getting children to read, write and cipher at a very early age, and to be ashamed If they did It badly. Then and here was the great unconscious principle that the country school was demonstrating wherever any pupil had a point of individuality to work upon, some taste or some tal ent, there the teacher found his op portunity. The college youth, himself Just waking up to the charm of liter ature or the fascination of scientific experiment, whs led Instinctively to pass on to his Inquiring pupil some spark of the divine tire of original study. The close personality of the relation guve a power to the teaching which no mechanical system could ever attain. It was the method which the experience of the world, from Socrates down, has shown to lie the only effective one the method of di rect Impact of one mind on another. . Under the system, which was no system, the mind of the pupil blossom ed out into the most vigorous growth of which it was capable. It never got the ruinous notion that a machine was going to do Its work for It; there was no machine. If the teacher nad any thing In him It was called out by the fresh, unspoiled enthuslnsm of the "getting through" the country school. The pupil went there term after term, year after year, simply demanding, as dirt the pupils of ancient Greece and those of the fair early days of the mediaeval university, whatever new tbe teacher of the moment had to give. There was no "courso," because there were no limitations of subject or of time. In that procession of active youth coming from the larger life of the college there was sure to be, sooner or later, some representative of every subject of study. The strain on the personality of the teacher was Im mense, and It produced a response. Individual answered to Individual, and out of this glve-uml-taUe came originality. Then there was a change. All this was found to be tinsciciitilic. The method must be made consclo.is of it self. 'Hi ie arose a being whose shadow has since darkened nil the hind, the "educator. ' To be simply a toucher was no longer enough; wo must have educators, and Hint ipilck- : ly. Thl.s hodge-podge of pupils of dif ferent ages must be broken up Into "grades."

It Is bar baric, the Indifference In too many homes to the school-room and Its sur roundings and care.

Neith er Is alone responsible for the health, or the progress, mental, moral, or spi ritual, of the child. The child la the record of two forces molding his life, determining his future. This being true, success depends on their Intelli gent combination, not on the critical separation of the two or In Indiffer ence about either. The Outlook.' Her Method. A young teacher. Jtho has bad great success with a class of "ragmufHns" In the worst quarters of a large city, waa asked at a school teachers' meet ing to tell something of the method by which she bad transformed the lawletta street urchins Into respectable little citizens In so many cases. "I haven't any method, really," said the young woman, modestly. "It Is only that I try to make the boys like me and I say 'don't' Just as seldom aa I possibly can In my work with them. They had learned to He, steal and fight, but truth, honesty and courtesy were unknown terms. So I began by telling them a story every morning about some boy who had done a brave, honest or kind thing, and held him up for their admiration. And after a while I asked tbem to save up good things they had seen or done to tell at these morning talks. Their eagerness about It and their pride when I was pleased with their little Incidents, showed me they were being helped. 'There was Just one boy who seemed to me hopeless. He waa apparently In different to everything; sat for weeks, during the morning talks, with a stolid expression on his face, and never contributed anything to the conversa tion. "I had begun to be really discouraged about him, when one morning he rais ed bis hand as soon as It was time 10 begin. " 'Well, Jim, what Is It you have to tell us,' I asked encouragingly. " 'Man's hat blew off as I was cotnln' to school. I ran and picked it up for him,' he Jerked out, In evident embar rassment at finding all eyes fastened on him. " 'And what did the man say? I asked, hoping that a thank you' hud rewarded his first attempt in the right direction. " 'You young scamp, you'd have made off with that If I hadn't kept my eye on you!' said the boy, in the same Jerky fashion. " 'And what did you do then 7 I asked In fear and trembling. "'Didn't do nothln', but Just come along to school,' said the boy soberly. 'I reckoned he didn't know no better; prob'ly he hadn't had no teachln as I've got,' and be lapsed Into silence with an air of perfect satisfaction. "I think he had a pretty severe re buff, but he has told a great many pleusant things since that day, so you Roe he was not disheartened. - 1 "Some people would say, I know,, that I ought to tell them how bad steal ing and lying and fighting are; and yet as long as they will listen to me while I say, 'Do be honest, do be truthful, do be kind,' I shall not keep the other things before tbelr minds." The young teacher sat down as mod estly as she hud risen. It was unani mously voted that whatever might be said for other methods, hers which she did not even call a method had commended Itself.

Do You Wish the Finest Bread and Cake? It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder i the purest and strongest of all the baking powders. The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet est, most delicious food. The strongest baking pow der makes the lightest food. .That baking powder which is both purest and strongest makes the most digestible and wholesome food. Why should not every housekeeper avail herself of the baking powder which will give her the best food with the least trouble ? Ayoid all baking powders sold with a gift or prise, or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sul phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome. Certain protection from alum baking powders can be had by declining to accept any substitute for the Royal, which isabsolutely pure. Ho saleons, No Police, Little Crlma.
