Medicine Never Healed a Wound Nature performs the healing process and medicine can only as sist her in doing her work in healing wounds and throwing off diseases. Nine-tenths of the diseases of man and beast have their origin in some form of germs and if allowed to run and multiply form complications. The reason that Liquid Koal prevents all germs dieases and cures them , unless fermentation and inflamma tion have too far developed , is that it contains every antiseptic and germicida known to science. All germ diseases such as hog cholera , swine plague , corn stalk diseasestubercolosis. blackleg and numerous others can ba prevented by giving Liquid Koal in drink ing water , because they are germ diseases and no germ can live where Liquid Koal reaches it. Liquid Koal is unaffected by the gastric juices of the stomach , passes through the intestines and from there into the circulation , nermeating the whole system and still retains all its germiclal properties. Diluted with water , in the proportion of one to one'hundred , it makes the best lice killer known. Price of Liquid Koal delivered at your station is as follows : ONE QUART CAN - S1.OO TEN GAL.

His reply \vas : "They might do worse and 1 think they 'will. " A lady who had a servant sonlewhat given to curiosity , inquired , on return ing from a visit one afternoon : ' 'Did the postman leave any letters , Mary'- ' ' "Nothing but a post-card , ma'am. " "Who is it from , Mary ? " "And do you think I'd read it , ma'am ? " said the girl , with an injured air. "Per haps not , " remarked the mistress , "but any one who sends me messages oil post-cards is stupid or impertinent. " "You'll excuse me , ma'am , " returned the girl , loftily , "but I must say that's a nice way to be talking about your own mother. " Once , when Tennyson went to dine with Sir Arthur Sullivan , his wide- britnmed felt hat and long , flowing cloak greatly impressed a ne\v servant at the composer's house. At the end of the evening , when Tennyson had departed , she gave vent to her feel ings , after asking whether that was "really the poet , " in these words : "Well he do wear clothes ! " "Yes , so do most poets ! " answered Sullivan ; "and then you must remember that he Is the Laureate. " The girl thought it over for a few minutes , no doubt cogi tating on his official position , before she remarked , with a sigh : "What a uniform ! " A. H. Savage Lander , in his latest book of travel , "Across Coveted Lands , " relates an amusing railway in cident that occurred in Russia while ho was en route to Persia. "Unable to get at my towels packed In my regis tered baggage , and ignorant of the Rus sian language , " he says , "I inquired of a polyglot fellow-passenger ivhat was the Russian word for towel , so that I could ask the guard for one. Talatiensi , ' said he , and I repeated 'Palatiensi , palatlcnsi , palatiensi , ' seas as to impress the word well upon my memory. Having enjoyed a good wash and a shampoo , and dripping all over with Avater , I rang for the guard , and sure enough when the man came , I could not recollect the word. At last it dawned upon me that it was 'Pala- tinski , ' and 'Palatinski' I asked of the guard. To my surprise the guard smil ed graciously , and putting on a modest air , replied : 'Palatinski nlet' pamski ( I do not speak Latin , I speak only Russian ) , ' and the more I repeated 'palatinski , ' putting the inflection now on one syllable , then on the other , to make him understand , the more flat tered the man seemed to be , and mod estly gave the same answer. This was incomprehensible to me , until my poly glot fellow-passenger came to my as sistance. 'Do you know wlxat you are asking the guard ? ' he said , in convul sions of laughter. 'Yes , I am asking for a palatinski a towel. ' 'No , you M-e not ! ' and he positively went into hysterics. 'Palatinski means "Do you r.peak Latin ? " How can you expect a Russian railway guard to speak Latin ? Look how incensed the poor man is at being mistaken for a Latin scholar ! Ask him for a palatiensi , and he will run for a towel. ' The man did run on the magic word being pronounced , and duly returned with a nice , cl -i : jnl.i- tiensl , which , however , was litth * use to me , for I had by this time -jot dry by the natural processes of dripping uid evaporation. " "QUEEN OF DESERET. " Unhappy Daya of 3i rig ham Young's Favorite Wife. Dwelling alone in a modest home , living only in the memories of her past triumphs , Harriet Amelia Folsom \ * * - ' > : * xt < * A Young , who once reigned as "Queen of Deseret" through virtue of her posi tion as the favor ite wife of Brigham - ham Young , awaits only t h e death which will end the loneliness of her later years. The magnificent dwell ing which the mas- AMEUAYOOfO. iMormon church erected for his favor- lite wife she has lived to see pass into the hands of the Gentiles. Although she lives in comfort , due to the great estate left by the prophet for the main tenance of his plural wives and his nu merous children and grandchildren , Istill she is not happy , for the only Iwoman over whom Brlgham Young ever lost his head , and so became a slave , is lonely. Although five others of the twenty-six wives of the Mormon leader are living , three in Salt Lake , she sees little of them , for as the favorite wife she was the recipient of many favors from her husband -which were denied to his other wives. This caused an estrangement , which has lived through the descending years. She has no children , and , while looked up to by the Mormons as one of 'the wives of the prophet , she has little in common with the Mormons of the pres ent generation , and is rarely seen at 'their gatherings , preferring to live a life of seclusion. It is said that in her old age she mourns for the love of her youth , whom she gave up at the stern behest of the master of the church , although not without a struggle. The lover of her girlhood , to whom she was engaged before the eyes of Brignam Young dwelt on ber youthful beauty , lives within two blocks of her home , Is married and has children. It Is re lated by those who were living in the early days that Brlgham Young did not secure the woman destined to rule as "Queen of Deseret" without a strug gle , for she loved the man to whom she was engaged , and , notwithstanding the pleadings of the head of the church , which in those days amounted \ . to a command , she at first refused to | give up her lover. Pressure , was brought to bear ou her by her parents and relatives , but she stood firm until Brighain , whose love and desire for the woman was increased by her re fusals , completely lost his head and promised that if she married him he would make her greater than his other wives and that her word should he law to him. He painted pictures of the powers which would be hers as his fa vorite wife , and finally the girl con sented , and was sealed to him for time in 1863. After the marriage Brigham - ham kept his word. His other wives were then living in the houses known as the "Lion" and the "Beehive , " the first because it is surmounted by the carved statue of a couchant lion and the second because on it stands a bee hive , now the State emblem. Amelia , as she was called , did not wish to live with his other wives , and he built her what is now known as the Amelia Palace , then the finest building in the West. Here she reigned as queen , her slightest wish being law to her hus band. The other wives were forced to do their own housework , but Amelia had servants. Although all the wives ate together in the dining room of the "Beehive , " the president's official res idence , the president and his favorite wife did not eat at the same table with them , and neither did they have the same fare as the others. Their table was raised on a dais , and only the choicest viands were served them. Not content with ruling the household , Amelia , who is the second cousin of Rose Folsom , now the wife of ex- President Grover Cleveland , was a woman of strong personality and strength of character , and because of this she soon became the power behind the throne , as it were. She was her husband's adviser in matters of state as well as in his personal affairs , and she soon became recognized as such by the people. She was aware of the power which she wielded over her hus band , and did not hesitate to use it , and consequently really reigned as a queen , for in those days Brigham Young was looked upon by the Latter- Day Saints as being only a step he- low the Deity , and his word was law , even to matters of life and death. Then came the deatli of Brigham , in 3877. His vast estate , amounting to over $2,000,000 , went into the control of the "Brigham Young Trust Com pany , " incorporated for the purpose of handling the estate , so that his wives should always have an Income from it. The Amelia palace , with the lion and beehive houses , -were devised to the church. Amelia continued to live In the palace for some time after her liege lord's death , and then , possibly because she was unable to bear the recollections which the great house called up , she left it and took posses sion of the house at No. 6 South First West street ; here she now resides. She traveled all over this continent and Europe after her husband's death , but always incognito. Beside Amelia there are living five others of the twenty-six wives of the Mormon leader. Breaking the Steers. During an Old Home Week celebra tion in a small town in New Hamp shire there were present a learned judge from a Western city , a professor from Boston and a United States Sen ator. Grave and austere of manner , as became their age and honors , they addressed each other by the titles which belonged to their several sta tions. But they had been schoolmates , and when the Senator told a story of school days the accumulated ice of for ty years thawed in a burst of laughter ; and they were John and Bill and Horace ace once more. The Delineator repeats one of their stories : "Bill , do you remember breaking the steers ? " laughed Horace. "Now , that's between you and me , Horace. " "No secrets here , " said John. "Out with it ! " "One summer one of Bill's steers got mixed in the swamp and was killed. Bill wasn't going to miss the fun of breaking the steers , so the next win ter he yoked himself up with the one that was left. I met them coming down over the crust like Sam Hi. * . Bill yelled between gasps , 'Stop us ! Stop us ! We're running away ! ' I cor nered them In an angle of the wall. As soon as Bill got breath enough he said , 'For goodness' sake , Horace , unyoke the other steer ! ' " Unsatisfactory. " "You should be a little more ex plicit In your statements , " said the ed itor to the new reporter , as be glanced over a batch of copy. "Here you say { hat the Hon. J. Edward Cashly , who who has been under the care of three physicians during the past ten days , is now out of danger. " "Well , Isn't that plain enough ? " queried the new pencil pusher. "Certainly not , " replied the autocrat of the sanctum. "How la the uniniti ated reader to know whether the Hon. J. Edward Is on the high road to re covery or dead and out of reach of the three physicians ? " Philadelphia Bulletin. And a Good Finder. "I thought you said that detective was handsome ?

' Reading of the cures that I/ydia E.Piiikham's Vegetable Compound has brought about , I somehow felt that it was what I needed and bought a bottle to take , now glad I am that I did so ; two bottles brought me immense re lief , and after using three bottles more I felt new life and Mood surging through my veins. It seemed as though there had been a regular house cleaning through my system , that all the sickness aud poison had hcen taken out and new life given me instead. I have advised dozens of my friends to use Lydia JB. PinJchain's Vegetable Compound. Good health is ind.V pensable to complete happiness , and Lydia E.
