Fruit should —let mo say it again—be looked upon as a necessity, not a luxury, as it is at pre- sent, and form a part of every meal, either raw or cooked. Our doctors have been haying this` law down for a long time now, but of late an eminent mann in the cast hes shown with much 511000ss that the acids of lemons, apples, and some other fruits are capable of de- stroying all kinds and varieties of the germs which cause disease and pain in the Truman body. Tho acids, citric and mane, contained In the fruits men- tioned havo probably the effect of kill- ing these disease germs, Cholera germs are said, to be killed in fifteen minutes by lumen juice or 'apple juice, and even typhoid germs, which havo great resist- ing p rpbr, are l:Slled in about thirty minufee'by elthe't of these acids, oven in a diluted forth.

The Adolescence of the Dollar, The dollar tools some rounding. Nor did it formerly ring true, but, much alive, simply gave a bloat or bellow. Cattle, among country folk, at one time constituted the dollar, while primitive, man generally made use of any article sufficiently abun- dant for the standard payment of all merchandise. Thus, in ancient Greece, says Har- pers Weekly, :a large bronze tripod had the value of a dozen oxen. A good hard-working woman, on the other hand, was given in exchange for only four such beasts.'. When metal took the place of money, the dollar clung to its are- ditions, and coins were still rcalled after live stook, Thus, "petunia," applied to metal money, derived its origin Iron pears," cattle.) From the custom of counting heads of eat•' ale came the present designation of a sum in cash—capital, or "capita" (horde). In Saneerit, roupa (herd, flock) made roupya, or the Indian roupee. While ingots of electrum, or admixture of gold and silver, when first in use as money, bore'^the im• prow of an ox or cow. Not clumsy, but too fragile, were the shells in use as money by the nogroes of Africa, and throughout ancient Asia, whore the natives, tak- en by ite beauty, gave the shell a money value. 4e♦ ENGLISH SPAVIN LINIMENT Removes all bard, soft and calloused lumps and blemishes from horses, blood spavin, curbs, splints, ringbone, sweeney, stifles, aprains, sore and swollen throat, coughs, etc. Save $50 by use of one bottle.
