M. ?The healthy old man wears his gray hairs like a silver crown. What if he be three [score and ten if there is still fire in his eye. firmness in his step, <-ommand in his voice aud wisdom in hie bounsel? He commands love and reverence. I Yet bow? f^w wear the mantle of age with dignity. Dim eyed, ; querulous of speech, halting in step, childish in mind, they "lag superfluous the Tstage, " dragging out* the fag end of life in a simple existance. The secret of a healthy old age is a healthy middle age. The man who takes care of his stomach, who keeps bis body properly nourished, will ifind that the body does not fail him in old age. The great value of ;Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery lies in the preservation of the working power of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition From this center is distributed the nourishment of the whole body, the salt for the blood, the lime , for the bonea, phospbatesTor the brain and nerves. A sound stomach means a sound man. A man who keeps this s'omach sound by the use of "Golden Medical Discovery" will wear the < crown of gray hairs as befits a mon- j arch, with dignity and ease Formula printed on wrapper — not a secret or "patent medicine," but of known com- 1 position. i EASTER CAKD j Imported and domestic Easter cards , at Star and Wave Music and Stationery ( Department, including some very , pretty designs, 817 Washington street. , HALT 1 HE IS INNOCENT.

As tbe waterway will consist of existing waterways, connected by broad canals cut through the wet |meadowe, and in some parts deepened by dredging, a large territory ! will have been opened up for naviga- ] tion next summer, and much traffic can . be done. In anticipation of this many j orders have already been given fori motor boats and yachts.
