IMPORTANT TO SMOKERS,
Poison Extracted From To
bacoo.
Let Every User OF The Weed Read This

]. w. Shaeffer & Co., tobacconists,
1923 Sacramento street, San Francisco,
have the following of vital Importance
to say:
AT u large expense we have purchas-
ed from Professor Hartwig, formerly
OF Guys hospital in London, the ST.
cret OF practically extracting the great
est part of the nicotin from tobacco,
thereby preventing the pernicious ef-
fects arising from the constant use Of
the weed. Our new cigar, "Bon Ton, "
is made from Havana tobacco, from
which we have extracted nearly all the
poisonous principle, but left the resin
Gus matter, which imparts to the cigar
u fine aromatic flavor. Every smoker,
ut times, has said, upon being offered u
cigar mo. have smoked enough!''
Under such conditions he instinctively
feels that he is under the influence OF
the nicotin, which his system has alb
sorbed. and is exerting its deleterious
effects by disturbing the functions of
his brain. No such truly alarming
consequences will result from smoking
our ssBon Ton" cigar, because the dam
gerous poison of the nicotin is gone,
and its exquisite qualities alone remain
to crafty the senses of smell and taste.
1t will be astonishing to consumers,
that the smoking of our "Bon Tom
cigars causes no desire to expectorate,
produces no dryness of the palate, no
throbbing of the temples, and does not
destroy the appetite for food. If smok-
ing is indulged in at all, why not smoke
a "Bon Tom instead Of unknown
brands, which may contain the worst
of goods, and hurtful to the system,
upon which nicotin makes truly fearful,
If the lungs are not powerful enough to
throw off the noxious poisonp
The tobacco trade carried on in San
Francisco forms one of its most active
and prominent interests, and, for q
matter which may fairly be considered
one Of luxury rather than of necessity,
it covers an astonishing extent Of COM
mercial area, and finds patronage in a
large proportion Of every class in San
Francisco society. The leading tobac-
conis is to-day in the city of the Golden
Gate are the Messrs. j. W. Shaeffer &
Co., patentees of the celebrated "Green
Seal'' cigars, as well as other import
ant facilities for catering to the wants
of the public in their line.
They take pleasure in announcing
that they have appointed as their sole

Chicago, Nov. "A Tribune's Keo-

that A. Mackey has been receiving
bodies of recently buried people, graves
having been robbed at Beacon, Iowa.
and the bodies barreled and shipped.
Two barrels of men were consigned to
Mackey Thursday, but the agent be-
coming suspicious, opened one of them
and found the body of John Hines. who
had been recently buried near Beacon.
Mackey has been arrested, but declares
he is innocent, The declaration is dis
credited, as under his directions the
first barrel was taken to the medical
college of Keokuk, and is still there.
The authorities at the college disclaim
any knowledge of the source from
which the barrel came. a E

ENGLAND.


London, Nov. 2.-It looks less war;
like again. There is growing feeling
that the postponement of the British
expedition against Afghanistan means
its abandonment. The leading Rus
sian authority takes the same view.
All parties to the general European
war appear to be again seeking a diplo-
matte solution of the vexed problems.
Meantime the fact remains that Russia
has not relinquished one foot Of the
ground occupied by her at the end of
the war, and all evidence of her war
like preparations indicates that she has
no intention to retire.

New York, Nov. -2.-Nothing but
politics is heard on any side. The dem
ocrats don't admit that they will lose
the New York legislature, and are
working hard to secure the United
States senator. Tammany men to-day
profess great confidence in carrying the
city On the main issue, the mayoralty.
Whether the Republicans shall lose
McCook's city district for congress is
extremely uncertain, but that they will
gain one congressman by electing l.. p.
Mortep, the banker, is strongly; proba-
Ible The Indications throughout the
state indicate that the republicans will
gain ut least three and possibly six
congressman. The only doubt grows
-outuf the indifference Of anti.adminis-
tration men to support the president.
From Massachusetts, the indications
point TO q heavy vote for Butler, but
his defeat is predicted by the shrewdest
politicians of Boston. They may not
fully appreciate Buffers strength at
the manufacturing centers. The bat
tie there is fought exclusively on the
greenback issue, which is believed to
have been materially weakened recently
by popular discussion.
From Pennsylvania the prognostica-
tions Of decided republican success
preponderates. They promise gain of
four congressman. Galusha A. Grow
says the republican plurality in the state
is secured beyond peradventure.

Winter P~asturage.

Rye or oats Sown at the last
blowing of cotton viii ensure excel
lent winter pasturage for stock OF
all kinds. The only cost is the
seed and the labor Of sowing them.
August is the proper time for sow
ing rye for paSturage; and though
early for oats, they will, If sown
this month, afford good winter
grazing, and make a fair crop of
oats besides. We would not how
eve advise the sowing Of oats III
August except as above suggested,
at the last blowing Of cotton. Scat
ter the seed, say half bushel of rye,
or a bushel to two bushels Of oats,
cover with a sweep, running 1t just
as YOU would if no seed had been
sown. The seed will not be dis
tributed as uniformly, or come up
as early, as if they had been put IN
with more care, but as the grain
grows, it will cover the ground and
make an excellent pasture.

The Absolute Requisites for
Keeping Fowls IN Good

are few, but are we'll determined,
through the practical experience OF
who know best how to man
age this simple and pleasant bust
ness. These requirements may be
summed up, in brief, as follows:
Construct your fowl houses SO as
ito avoid damp floor, and afford a
flood of sunlight. Sunshine is bet
ter than medicine.
Provide a scratching place where
you can bury wheat and cracked
corn, and thus induce the fowls to
AXE needful exercise.
Fowls need pure air. and plenty
of it, at all seasons Of the year.
They should have clean water
daily and never be allowed to go
thirsty.
Feed them Systematically two or
three times a day, summer and VIM
ter.
Supply all they will eat up clean
at each feeding, and so make no
waste.
Let them have variety, and serve
them with both green and dry food
t constantly.
| One feed daily, Of cooked meal
5 and vegetables, is a very excellent
arrangement.
Give this soft feed in the morn
!. ING. and the whole grains at night
{ exec ting a little cracked corr
; placed in the scratching place
Z IN the forenoon, to furnish employ.
! mcnt through the day.
z Above all, see that the hen
houses are clean and always wei
ventilated.
Use carbolic powder IN the dust
i ings bins occasionally, to destro,
lice.
Nd Wash your roosts and the bot
ID tom laying nests once a month Il
~ winter, and once a week IN summe
with kerosine.
y Let young and old fowls enjoy
ny range, if possible, the larger TINS is
the better.
