Sen eca. Keep Your Blood Pure. No one can be happy, light-hearted and healthy with a body full of blood that cannot do Its duty to every part because of Its Impurity; therefore, the first and most important work in hand la to purify tho blood so that every organ will get the full benefit of a healthy circulation. There is no rem' edy so good as that old family rem' edy, Brandretu'a Pills. Each pill con- tains one grain of tho solid extract of sarsaparllla blended with two grains of a combination ot pure and mild vegetable products, making It a blood purifier unexcelled In character. One or two taken every night for awhile will produce surprising results. Brandreth's Pills have been in use for over a century, and aro for salo everywhere, plain or sugar-coated. Horsee Still In Demand. Happily the horso has a faculty for upsetting the gloomy predictions that he is fated to be put out of business by the automobile The horse business has kept light on developing in spite of the fact that the automobile Indus try has been engaged in similar un dertaklng. Tho demand for horses Is still great. The supply of some classes of them is inadequate. - The prices are high. The automobile may scare the horse into the ditch, but it isn't likely to crowd hlin to the wall There will always be a field for the horse, as there will always be a field for the automobile. Hartford Times Rothschilds Never Prosecute. While the Hank of Kngland makes It a point never under any circum stances to relinquish the prosecution of those who have defrauded It in the slightest degree, being willing, if need be, to spend thousands of pounds to capture and prosecute people who have robbed It of even a few shillings the Rothschilds make It a rule never to appeal to the courts or to tho police In such matters. Of course, they are like every other banker, occasionally the victims of dishonesty, but neither the police nor the public ever hear about the matter. This has always been a principle of the heads of the house, who take the ground that it is better to bear the loss In silence than to disturb popular confidence in the safety of the concern by allowing it to be seen that its treasures are mot adequately safeguarded. CRIED EASILY. Nervous Woman Stopped Coffee an Quit Other Things. No better practical proof tbut coffee is a drug can be required tliau to not how the nerves become unstrung women who hnbitually drink It. The stomach, too, rebels at being ontinualIy drugged with coffee and tea they both contain tho drug caffeine. Ask your doctor. An lu. woman tells Uie old story thus: "1 had used ooffee for six years and was troubled with headaches, nervous tiess and dizziness. In tho morning ti)xn rising I used to belch up a sour fluid regularly. "Often 1 got so nervous and miser able I would cry without the least r-a son, una i noticed my eyenigut was getting poor. "AfUfr using Postum a while, I ob served the headaclu left rne and soon ike belching of sour fluid stopped (wa ter brash from dyspepsia). 1 feel de cidedly dlfferett now, and I am con vlnced that it is because I stopped coffee and began to use Postum. I can see better now, my eyes aro stronger.

CANA- Nearly 200,000 of an Increase In Cana da's Immigration in 1906. The progress ot a new country can not be better ascertained than by not ing the Increase of railroad mileage in Its transportation system', and, judged by this standard, the Canadian West leads all the countries in the world during the current year. Thirty years ago there was not one hundred miles of railroad west of the Great Lakes, and very little prospect of a trans continental route for many years to come, but by the end of 1S85 the Canadian Pacific Railway was within mcasurablo distance of completion, and last year twenty years later over 6,000 miles of railroad traversed the provinces ot Manitoba, Sas katchewan and Alberta. In the past year the work ot rail road construction has been vigorously prosecuted, and by the end ot 1906, some 5,000 miles ot completed railroad has been added, making a total of fully 11,000 miles In the three great grain producing provinces of Canada. Such an increase in the transportation facilities of the country is bound to make good times not only In the dis tricts where the railroads are being built, but throughout the entiro west. Allowing 120,000 a mile for construc tion, the sum of $100,000,000 will be put in circulation, and this in itself should cause good times to prevail in a land where work is plentiful, wages are high, and the cost ot living Is mod erate. But the building of new railroads throueh Western Canada means a greater benefit to the country than merely the money put in circulation by the cost ot construction. Addition' al railway building means the opening of new agricultural districts ana an additional area under crops; a largely increased output ot grain to foreign markets with consequent financial re turns; the erection of elevators and the growth of villages, towns and cit ies; and everything else that makes for the progress of national life, and the opening up of additional thousands of free homesteads, so extensively ad Tertiscd by tho Canadian government aecnt. whono address appears else where. It was stated on the floor of the Canadian Parliament recently by prominent representative that ten years from now would see the bulk of the population of Canada residing west of tho Great Lakes, and if the work of railway building during the present year is any criterion, the prophecy made by the Canadian states man may bo easily fulfilled insldo of tho time stated. During tho present year no less than 189,064 persons have found homes in the Canadian west of whom 57,790 were Americans who have seen the great possibilities of this new West, and have decided to cast in their lot with It. Certainly, our neighbor north of tho 49th parallel is making a great record, and deserves the success that appears to bo coming its way. Water on a Battleship.

Tinal ly my husband said that we would try the Cuticura Remedies, so wo got a rako of Cuticura Sonp, a box of Cuticura Ointment, and two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent Tills.
