What q Mattress Contained.

A Paris paper tells story of an &c.
centric man who put clause in his
will that the funeral should take place
at 6 o'clock in the morning, and that
his property, an old mattress, should
be left to those who followed the
hearse to the graveyard. As there
was nothing in the will to attract
many mourners, the funeral process
sion was limited to the driver of the
hearse and a young neighbor of the
deceased. He got the mattress and
found in it $4,000.

Cultivating Sorghum.
GSouthern Cultivator.!

Prof. Geroge 81. Cook, director of
the New Jersey agricultural and eX-
pertinent station at Brunswick, in
the report on his labor, alludes to the
waste in the use of mills for extract
ing the juice, 40 per cent of the sugar
being lost by the ordinary process.
1t is worth while to inquire whether
the best mills, from which the pressed
cane comes out almost as thin and
dry as carpenters shavings, do not
secure much larger percentage.
Before concluding his report Prof.
Cook refers to the works of the su-
gar company in Cape May county,
where 964 acres were planted with
early amber and early orange seed.
which gave 6200 tons of topped cane
One field of eight acres giving 1856,
or IL tons an acre, and another of
orange cane on 20 acres affording 259
tons, or over twelve tons an acre.
The purity of the juice was remarka-
able, the amount of sugar in 100
pounds of solid expressed matter in
an entire weeks work being as high
as 81, and in one instance 80. The re-
turns show 1884 pounds of manu-
featured sugar and 10000 gallons of
dense syrup. Prof. Cook, in common
with others who have tried the early
ripening kinds of sorghum, expresses
strong hope in the ultimate success
of this industry, and cites the fact
that some 2,0O00O0,000 pounds of sugar
are yearly consumed in this country,
or 40 pounds to each inhabitant, only
one-eighth of which come from the
sugar-cane growing states, as reason
for giving this industry a thorough
and extensive trial.

Not Affected by Age,

Some old specimens of Royal Bak-
ing Powder that had been kept on
the shelf of a grocery store for ten
years were recently tested by Prof.
Schneider, of New York, for the pur-
pose of measuring the loss of strength
they had undergone. 1t was found
that, although the powder had been
exposed to atmospheric changes
during all this time-for it was not
in air-tight cans-its loss of raising
power or Stength was less than one
per cent, the p: WIDER being practically
as good as the day it was put up.
This is a most valuable quality in a
baking powder, one which few pos
sesS. Most powders if not used when
first made are found to be ineffective
If kept even few weeks they lose
their leavening power, become lumpy
or caked, and valueless.
This superior keeping quality in
the Royal arises from the extraor
binary care in its manufacture, and
the scientific principles employed in
its combination. The articles used in
its composition are thoroughly dried
by heat before being compounded, and
are so prepared and coated as to pre-
vent the action of the acid upon the
alkali prematurely, or except under
the influence of heat or water neces.
sarily used in cooking or baking.
The Royal is now used extensively
in Australia, Africa, and other low
ATTITUDES, where it has been found tt
be the only baking powder that will
withstand the hot, moist atmosphere
without deterioration.

Fencing In Roads.

People who live in Red Rock vi
entity, in Bastrop county, complain
about the fight of way to this city be-
ing stopped by parties fencing up.
This is simply an outrage. 1t is a Sc
rious matter and steps should be
taken at once to secure a public high
way, so that parties may come to
Austin to trade. The Austin mer-
chants are indignant about the mat
ter as well as the farmers, and we
trust petition will be presented and
that the authorities will remedy the
evil so soon as possible. The next
legislature should provide for the lay
ing off roads around every section of
land in the state, for the time is not
far distant when it will have to be
done in order to prevent such serious
results as the one we are speaking OF
in every part of Texas.

From One Of Austin's Leading Ply
sicians.

DR.. Tobin:
Dear Sir-You will remember that
some time ago l remarked to you that
I suffered from an uneasy, painful
feeling in my right side, caused by
congested condition of the liver,
which prevented me from riding on
horseback and engaging in violent
exercise of any kind. You then told
me that you had suffered from smi-
lar affection of the liver, and had
cured yourself by using certain medi-
cinal herbs which you had discovered
and urged me to try them. 1 did so
and am now well. These medicinal
herbs in conjunction with salines you
have since presented to the public
under the name of "Tobin's Hepato-
zone" In doing so you have con-
ferred great boon on people living
in a hot, semi-tropical climate like
ours, where diseases of the liver are
so prevalent. 1t is the daily expe-
rienee of every physician to find peo-
plt running their constitutions by the
excessive use of ST ong mercu-
rial purgatives. A still larger
number constantly use so-called "iver
regulators" mostly composed of
aloes and other drastic purgatives,
which only tend to produce piles and
other troublesome affections of the
lower bowels. To all such sufferers
your medicine will be an invaluable
aid in restoring them to health again,
and l feel assured that it only re-
quires to be known to be appreciated,
and that people will cease destroying
their constitutions by the reckless and
dangerous abuse of mercurials now
in vogue. Hepatazone contains no
hurtful drug, and yet it is signally eff
ficient as liver medicine. l may re-
mark just here that l am not violat-
ing medical ethics in truthfully giving
you my opinion of a medicine which
1 have used myself with benefit, the
formula of which you did not hesi-
tate to show to me. Above all, it af-
fords me great pleasure to know that
you have placed your medicine Com
posed only of costly drugs within
the reach of the poorest man or wo-
man.
Respectfully,
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1883-08-02
