The GERAT WHEAT FIELDs.-People
travelling to the North West, will be
gratifed at learning that the 'Great
Rock Island Route" opened a new line
from Chicago to Minneapolis and st.
Paul. July II, running two through
daily trains, leaving Chicago at 1905
and $50 p. M. This new line is to be
known as the "Albert Lea Route" and
passes through the very best sections of
the States of Illinois, Iowa and Mime
sofa, affording travellers view of the
great harvest fields of our country. and
section peopled by the most progress
i've and prosperous of our Northwestern
inhabitants.
We understand that round trip excur-
sion tickets to points in the great wheat
region of the Red River of the North,
and Missouri River valleys, will be i'm
mediateIy put on sale, good for 40 days
from date of issue. This will enable
Eastern farmers to visit the greatest
wheat country on the globe, and see
harvesting done on the most gigantic
scale.
Surely, no one that really desires to
see the West, will forego this opportun-
ity to do SO, by ticketing over any Other
than the "Albert Lea Route, via Wes
Liberty. The great Rock Island depo
is the most central of any in Chicago
being in the very heart of the city, clos
to the great hotels, postofice, and lead
ing mercantile houses.

A HORSE SHOE IN A TREE.-A q


A HORSE SHOE IN A TREE.-A syc-
amore tree was recently blown down
near the residence of Geo. Douglas, in
Hartford, Conn. On cutting it up for
fire wood, there was found embedded
in the trunk, 50 inches in dismeter, an
old horseshoe with nails on one side
only. 1t Was 23 inches from the bark,
or outer edge of the tree, the wood Of
which is perfectly sound. The tree Is
known to be more than 1870 years old,
and it is estimated that tho shoe has
b-en embedded in it ! 10 years. In ye
olden times, it was customary thing
to nail old horseshoes to trees fol
hitchng horses to. and it is supposed
that this one was nailed there for thai
purpose, and that as The tree grew, i
incased the shoe in it. Mr.. Douglas
house formerly belonged to the Math
er family. The brick building used t.
stand in the corner of the lot, wher
the Mathers had their office, and tn
probability is that the tree was use'
as hitching post.

hot climate intensifies all the vicious
effects of alcohol. The symptoms of
cirrhosis of the liver are in the
early stages often obscure, but
later they are sufficiently well marked
At first the liver gets slightly en-
!arged, and the patient suffers from
pain in the right side, indigestion,
wind and costive bowels. He is occa,
sionally feverish, his skin is hot and
dry, and he has e peculiar, unhealthy,
sallow look, which he probably fails
to notice, but which is sufficiently Oh
vious to his friends. The necessity Of
making a change in his ha''its is forced
upon his attention, and for week or
two he is under the doctors orders,
and not feeling able to drink any
more, he consents to follow restrict

tivcs.

are relieved, he fancies himself well
again, and quickly returns to his old
