A BARBER'S NCE 1Z OF
John Bryant was olio of the most
noted characters that ever struck the
Sound, says the Seattle PresaTiines,
He would attract atteation anyyWhere.
P. 4.'41000, the colored attorney,
who 444 known him for -;man years,
says tat twenty States ^rloight be
travelled over 'before .a liner specimen
of physical manhood could be found.
He wag tall, straight well proportion-
ed, a, shade darkerthan olive and al-
ways faultlessly ressed.
Just about a year ago Bryant was a
barber in Helena, Mon. lie invested
in a lottery ticket and drew a $15,000
prize. He gave up his trade, came to
Seattle and purchased the Blue Front
Saloon, on Jackson street. He reaped.
a golden harvest in his saloon. Money
wag no object to him. Ha purchased;
everything,that struck his fancy. The
finest clothes, made by the most <fas
hionable tailors, were none too good
for the colored Croesus, Suits run-
ning from $75 to $125 were the order
of the day. His shoes were all made
to order in the East, and if they cost
less than $15 a pair were deemed un-
worthy to be worn. He fancied beav-
er hats at $20 a piece, silk underwear
at $40 a suit, shirts at $50 a dozen'
neckties, kid and dogskinloves enc
silk hose by the dozen. His canes
were numbered by� the score, all of the
costliest make. He paid $25 for a silk
umbrella. He had a gold watch made
to order in Chicago at a cost of 8800,
and on his costly watch chain hung a
diamond horse shoe fastened to a gold
book, costing $200. His diamond stud
cost $500 and his sleeve buttons $200.
He paid $300 for the solitaire on his
finger and $50 apiece for his four dia-
mond collar buttons. He fitted up a
suite of rooms in Oriental magnifi-
cence. In those rooms he kept a score
of brands of thelfinest liquorsand chain.
pagnes,and boxes of the costliest cigars
He paid a carriage by the hour to stand
in front of his saloon, so that when he
wanted to go anywhere he would not
have to wait, walk or take a street car.
But the fascination of games of hazard
proved his ruin, "craps' being his fa-
vorite. He would go into the People's
and bet $100 at a crack. If he lost he
would double the bet and double it
again as long as allowed to do so. He
lost $1,500 in one night in Tacoma. In
fact, he never won anywhere. He was
a pigeon plucked by everybody.
The end came finally and Bryant
left Seattle broke—minus diamonds,
bewelry, fine clothes, etc. He is now
ack to his trade again in Livingstone,
Mon.

From the Arkansas Democrat.
The story of renewed health told in the
following article, has been 'carefully in-
vestigated lIy the Damooratl and is of the
deepest interest to 'all parent,. The con-
dition of Mee Oletinenta is that of thous-
ands of girls in our land, whose health and
vitality is slowly but surely being sapped
away. Pale, listless and sallow girls meet
us .on every side, and unless the; same
prompt measures are taken as in the case
of Mise Clements, a premature grave is the
inevitable result. Lula Clements, the
nineteen year old daughter of Mrs Cora V•
Clements, one of the most prominent.re-
sidents of Lonoke, Ark., was attacked with
a u yaterior, wasting .disease over a year
ago, and despite the strenuous efforts of
the local physicians she continued• to grow
worse. Her blood had turned to water, she
suffered intense agony, and was almost
ready to give up life when relief came.
Her story is best told as related by her
mother to a Democrat reporter:—
"In the fall of 1892 my daughter began
to show signs that some diseade-was wreak.
ing her system. Despite the 'constant at-
tention of local physicians she grew worse.
Her complexion was pale, and she became
almost as white as marble. Shecomplaind
ed of heart palpitation. Her feet an
hands were cold, and she was almost driv-
en into hysterics by racking headaches and
backaches, and shortness of breath and
other distressing symptoms. All these
conditions betoken anomia, or in other
words watery and impoverished condition
of the blood, which could not perform the
functions of nature. She had no appe-
tite; for many days she did not eat enough
for a child to subsist on.
"Her condition grew from bad to worse
and becoming alarmed, I sent her to prom-
inent physicians in Virginia, Tennessee
and Little Rook. All efforts of this nature
to regain her health proved fruitless.
Patent medicines of many kinds were tried
and given thorough tests, but without any
appearent effect towards improving the
patient.
"Myself`and daughter had almost given
np in despair, having almost concluded
that a restoration of her health was an im-
possibility. In the Arkansas Democrat I
espied an advertisement of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People, which claimed
that they would give ready relief to per-
sons suffering from a disease the symptoms
of which were the same as in the case of
my daughter. I purchased some of the,
pills, and commenced giving my daughter
three pills a day. Before the .first box
had been taken an inprovement was noticed
Colorin her face was noticed,and her appe-
tite returned. The terrible headaches and
backaches ceased, and she could breathe
more freely. When the fourth box had
been taken she was entirely well, and since
then has enjoyed excellent health. She is
now robust and full of life, making our
family happy once more. Quite a con-
trast to the situation six months ago, when
everybody thought she would die.
"I think 'Pink Pills' the best medicine
in the world for the blood, and have re-
commended them to several citizens of this
place, who have been restored to health
by its Use. Mrs Heiiy Brown was in a
very bad condition. She tried the Pink
Pills, when she improved rapidly and is
now a vary healthy woman."
The discoverer of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, for Pale People certainly deserves the
highest tribute that pen can frame. His
Medicine has done more to alleviate the
suffering of humanity than any other
medicine known to science, and his name
should be handed down to future gener-
ations as the greatest savant of the present
age.
Druggists say that Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills have an enormous sale, and from all
quarters come glowing reports of results
following their use.. In very many cases
the good work has been accomplished after
eminent physicians had failed, and pro-
nounced the patient beyond the hope of
human aid. An analysis shows that Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills contain in a condensed
form all the elements necessary to give
n 3w life and richness to the blood, and re-
stores shattered nerves. They are an un-
failing specific for such diseases as lccomo•
t,r ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus'
dance, • sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism,
nervous headache, the after effects of la
grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and
sallow complexions, nervous prostration;
all diseases depending upon vitiated humors
in the blood, surh as sorofula, chronic
erysipelas, eto. They aro also a speoifiq for
troubles peculiar to females, such as sop-
pressions, irregularities, and all forme of
weakness. They build up the blood, and
restore the glow of health to pale and sal-
low cheeks. In men they effect a radical
pure in all oases arising from mental worry,
overwork, or excess of whatever nature.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are mannfaotur-
ed by the Dr. Williams' MedioineCompany,
Brookville, -Ont., and Schenectady, N Y.,
are sold in boxes (never in loose form by
the dozen or hundred, and the public are

THEY WERE GREEN.
For the sake of realism we will say
that the man in this story was Colonel
B., of Saginaw, who knows timber al-
most as well as he knows state poli-
tics. Of course it wasn't the colonel,
but that doesn't count. In any event,
a year -or -so -ago he was down on one
of the mountain streams of east Ten -
nesse picking up walnut logs. One
day two very green -looking yaps from
the hills came into the tavern where
he was stopping and asked for him.
He happened to be in the office and
heard their inquiry.
"I'm your man," he said. "What
will you have?" •
"We've got a walnut log down here
in the crick, ' said one, "and we want
to sell hit. We wuz goin' ter Knox-
ville, an pap 'lowed ez we wanted mo-
ney we could sell the log and git
enough ter pay our expenses. Do you
want to buy hit?"
"Take me down to see it," said the
Michigan man, and they walked about
a quarter of a mile down the stream
and found it moored to a root on the
bank. It was a big one, and had been
in the water so long it was black on
the ends. The buyer walked along its
length, ran his measuring rod around
its sides and across its ends, rattled
the bark and found it solid, and at
last offered the yaps $60 for it.
Their eyes fairly bulled out at the
offer and they took it quick. Then
the Michigan man watched them take
their departure for Knoxville. He
chuckled then, for the log was worth
$150 clear. But the Michigan man
didn't say anything. He hurried that
log down stream to the nearest ship-
ping point to load it on the car with
some more he had. Three days later
he went down himself.
"See that last log I sent down?" he
asked of his man at the station. "Fine
log; got it for $60; worth $150 sure,"
and he chuckled some more.
"Did you send that long?" enquired
the man, )laughing like a horse.
"Of coul(se; what's the matter with
it?"
"Nothin' much; only it ain't a wal-
nut log at all."
"Not walnut?" ansl the buyer looked
sick.
"Course it ain't; it's sycamore, with
walnut bark fastened all around it
with fine wire and the ends soaked in
green walnut hull judice,• I reckon it
is worth about four dollars."
The Michigan- man s'cvallowed his
Adam's apple about seventeen times in
ten seconds. Then he recovered his
speech and made the air so blue with
profanity that the folks in the next
county thought the wood were on fire.
