There is Nothing Certain

except death, and that is now rendered ex-
tremely uncertain by the discovery Of an abso-
lutely certain cure for the most painful Of all
bodily ailments, Piles. For 900 years, quscks
and medical men have rivalled each other In
torturing the miserable sufferers by that ter
rfble disease with all manner OF barbarous, ig-
norant and useless nostrums and devices, and
might still have gone on for q thousand more
years but for the discovery Of Anskesis by Dr.
Silsbee. We seldom puff such things, but any
man or woman who has ever suffered the
agony OF Piles, will thank us for calling at
tention to an almost infallible remedy for this
dreadful disease. 500, 600 afflicted sufferers
testify to its unparalleled virtues. Doctors OF
all me ical schools endorse and use it 1t is
at once the triumph and admiration OF the
age; simple, safe, prompt and permanent. it
relieves pain ut once, supports and COM
press es the tumors and ultimately cures the
worst cases OF Piles, no matter Of how long
standing. Absolute infalllbility is not posi-
bic, but medical science has nothing more
nearly so than ''Anakesis." 1t is the discovery
of DR.. s. Silsbee, an accomplished chemist and
practicing physician, after 40 years study and
experience. Samples of ',Anakesis" are cent
free to all sufferers by P. Neustaedter & CO.

APPLES KEPT IN WATKR.-Severals state
ments have been published of the entire
success which has attended the keeping of
Winter apples under water. The expert
ment is worth repeating, observing the PIE
caution of maintaining the temperature
nearly down to the freezing point. The
advantage of this practice are, first, the
exclusion of air currents; and secondly, a
temperature not liable to fluctuations. OF
which cannot quickly change. So long a:
the water can be kept quite cold, the
fruit will be likely to remain sound; if toe
warm the skin will swell and cracks by an
OVer-absorption OF moisture. Grapes have
been successfully kept In the same way,
the water remaining near freezing. A
damp cellar for the fruit on shelves. is bet

Sciences, Paris, nj. D. Calladon gave an
account of some of the experiments recent
ly performed by NJ. r. ThurrY with tele-
phones during thunder storms. A copper
wire was stretched between the roofs of
two houses and connected with the earth
by means of water pipes. Two telephones,
one having resistance of 40 and the
other a resistance of 2.5 ohms were joined
to this wire. On the occasion of every

Stock FEED FOR FALL AND WINTER -
In view of the certainty of the scarcity Of
corn and of high prices for all sorts of food
for live stock during the coming fall and
winter, farmers cannot be too careful of
the supply on hand. Straw and corn fod-
der are sure TO be much more largely used
as supplementary feed than heretofore, es-
pecially at the West, where straw and even
cOrn-stalks have hitherto been lightly es-
teemed tor feeding purposes In many pla-
ces. During the terrible drought ON the
Pacific coast couple of years ago, when
Thousands of stock starved to death, loud
regrets were heard on all sides at the fool
ish waste and destruction of straw at
thresblng time; for bad it been stacked so
as to keep well, it would have been a god
send TO cattle and their owners in those
days and months of famine. Rather than
over-econolnize by reducing the feed of
stock too much, however, would il not be
better to weed out ones herds and flocks
and dispose of all inferior animals early
before they have diminished the feed sup
ply OF those IT will pay to keep With an
imals intended for market it is more econ
omical to give them full feed so as TO have
them ready for sale as soon as possible,
rather than to reduce their ratiors and be
forced to keep them longer.
