You’re not feeling just right this spring, arc you? Somehow, you haven’t your old-time strength, cannot take hold of things with your usual oush and energy.

A perfect Sarsaparilla will do this every time; not a cheap Sarsaparilla, net one that promises you a great deal of bulk f r your money; but a highly concentrated Sarsaparilla, one that has more cure in it than any other Sarsaparilla in the world.

ROBERTS’ SUPPLY HOUSE, SKSSZ’SSftSSBrS: MINNEAPOLIS. MINN. RAILROAD PASSES 1 Proved the Ruin of This Once Prosper ous Kansas Farmer. Wichita (Kan.) Cor. Chicago Inter Ocean: This is the true story of the undoing of a Kansas farmer, and his particular case has many a duplicate in the Sunflower state. Politics was his Nemesis, and his love for a rail road pass led him into all the trouble. John Butternew was a prosperous Ger amn farmer of the Third district. He j had a fine farm, and it was well stocked with blooded cattle and good horses. He worked hard and prosper ed. He had a pleasant home and some promising children. The neighbors pointed him out as a happy soul. That was ten years ago. In those days a tall man, flashily dressed, visited the town where Butternew lived. He wore 1 diamonds and carried a pocketful of annual passes over the big railroads. The sight of these passes was Butter new’s undoing. “Why should I not carry passes?” Butternew asked him self. “I could travel then and have a good time for nothing.” The politi cian told the plain old farmer it was easy to be elected to office, and that passes would then come from all sides. So Butternew entered the race for congress and was elected. He forgot to count the cost in enemies and money, but he got the passes. Then he commenced to travel. He neglected the farm to see the sights in Chicago, simply because he could ride on the train free; he paid big hotel bills at Galveston and St. Paul, for the same reason, and he rode to Topeka twice a week, just to experience the sensa tion of riding for nothing. Time sped by. The time for the renewal of the passes came around. Butternew liked the office, even if it was a losing thing financially, so he announced himself as a candidate for re-election. He got ■ the nomination by a scratch. His op ponent, a wealthy man, spent lots of money in the campaign, and Butter new was forced to mortgage his home to raise the cash to fight him with. The race was close, but Butternew was defeated, and his passes were taken up. By this time Butternew had the train-riding mania. He could not stay j at home. Instead of trying to retrieve his fallen fortunes he neglected busi ness, and all the spare money be had was used in trying to get back in pol itics. But his power was lost. For tune was against him. Last week the sheriff sold his homestead under mort gage foreclosure. Butternew is a wan derer, his family is destitute, and he still clings to political hope. VISITOR KICKS ON CLOCKS. — He Calls All I’nblic Timepieces Public Liars. “A public clock is a public liar, at least in Chicago.” said a countryman to the hotel clerk yesterday. “By com paring the clock across the street with the clock in the store on the next block, where 1 went to make some pur chases. I arrived at the hotel door fifteen minutes before I started from the store, and, according to your clock, it took me twelve minutes to walk aross the rotunda to your desk.” “How does your watch compare with our clock?” Risked the clerk. “I don’t know. It stopped awhile ago of its own accord. Got disgusted. 1 guess, trying to conform to the way your city clocks do business. No self-re specting watch would try to run along with your public clocks. But your clocks are no more uncertain, no more untruthful than some men I have had dealings with in this town. However, I should not complain of the ways and customs of your city folk, for I lived here five years a long time ago and made enough money to buy as good a farm as you will find in Wisconsin.” “I did not suppose you had ever lived in a city a whole week at a time in your life,” observed the parted-his-hair-in-the-middle clerk. “No? Well, I have and they used to say I had the sharpest private detec tive agency that this town ever had. And, say, Mr. Clerk, the next time 1 come to town you needn’t bother to tell the house watchman to see that | none of the boys ‘work that old hay seed.’ ”—Chicago Chronicle. A Biff F«*e for One Word. William M. Evans, one of the most honored men in the legal profession, was paid a fee of $250,000 for giving a legal opinion which is expressed in just one little word of three letters. “Yes” was the word, and the opinion was rendered upon the request of a great corporation which had a difficul ty on hand involving millions and threatening the existence of the cor porate body. The question was wholly one of the correct interpretation of the law. and when the regular attor ney for the corporation put this vital ly important question to the great law yer, with the previous understanding that the interested parties would abide by his decision, win or lose, Mr. Ev arts sat buried in thought for a min ute, and then answered in one word. “Yes.” His bill for that one word was $250,000, and the corporation paid it without a murmur. His answer proved to be entirely correct. The lender Atnonc Copper Producer*. There has recently been published in Germany an interesting book entitled j “A Century of Copper,” which shows , that the United States now furnishes ! more than half of all the copper used | in the world. While the production | has increased with great rapidity in i other countries,in none has the cop per industry developed so rapidly as | in the United States. In 1890 the total i value of copper manufactured was only | $2,349,392; in 1899 it had increased to , $35,083,529. In 1890 we exported 20, | 237.409 pounds to foreign countries. In 1899 we exported 254.987.164 pounds. XJfe of a Car Wheel. The car wheels made in Pennsylva j nia are generally run 4.000 miles on passenger coaches and are then put on freight cars.
