DIR. N. b. Richardson, of London,
the noted physician, says he.was able3o
convey q considerable amount OF con-
viction to an intelligent scholar bysim-
pie experiment. The scholar was sing
ing the praises of the rudy bumper,
and saying he could not get through
the day without it, when DR.. Richard
son said to him:
"Will you be kind enough to foel my
pulse as i stand here?"
He did SO. / said, "count it careful
ly; what does it say?"
"Your pulse says seventy-four.
then sat down in chair and asked
him to count it again. He did so and
said "Your pulse has gone down to
seventy"
then lay down on the lounge, and
said: will you take it again ?"
He replied: "Why it is only sixty
four; what an extraordinary thing"
then said: "When you lie down at
night, that is the way nature gives your
heart rest. You know nothing about
it, but that beating organ is resting to
that extent; and IL you reckon it up, it
is q great deal of rest, because in lying
down the heart is doing ten strokes less
a minute Multiply that by sixty and
it is GOO; multiply it by eight hours
and within fraction it is 5000 strokes
different, and as the heart is throwing
six ounces of blood at every stroke, il
makes difference of 10000 ounces OF
lifting during the night.
"When lie down at night without
any alcohol, that is the rest my heart
gets But when you take your wine, OF
grog. you do not allow that rest, for the
influence of alcohol is to increase the
number of strokes, and instead of get
ting this rest, you put on something
like $1,000 extra strokes, and the result
is you rise up very seedy and unfit fol
the next days work till you have taken
a little more of the rudy bumper,
which you say is the soul of mar
below"

CROP PROSPECTS.

We must confess that two weeks
ago and till within the past week, there
we're times, when the prospects for
crops, and especially for corn, were a
little gloomy. But the past few days
of fine weather have wrought wonder
full change, and farmers who wore their
faces little long, ten days ago have
now shortened them up by halt.
Several trips in the country, and dill
gent inquiry from al. parts of the
county reveal the fact that we are in
a much better condition than at this
time last year. The poorest corn in
the country is within three miles of
Kirksville. and this is found principally
north aud northeast of town. 1t would
be reasonable to place the oat crop
as being so per cent better than last
year. They are now good height
and if the farmers will notice they will
find the heads in most fields, unusually
long, The meadows never were bet
ter. True some meadows are light
owing to close pasturlng last fall,
and the hard winter, but light meadows
are the exception. The corn ,naggot
destroyed entire fields of corn last
year, while at this time it is doing no
damage to speak of, in this county.
The wheat, what there is oft. is good.
There is hardly wheat field in Adair
county that will not yield fair crop,
and this TOO, when wheat. in the wheat
growing portion of the state is almost
total failure. With continued good
weather for growing crops from now
till all crops are matured, We venture
the prediction that Ada,r county will
make better showing than she has
done In the past ten years. If any of
our farmers feel otherwise let them
report US by letter next week.

INDIANS DIVIDED ON THE QUESTION OF
THE SALE OF THEIR SURPLUS ACRES
OKLAHOMA.
HoT SPRINGS. ARK. June 29.-Advice
from the Indian Territory state that
there is mixture of opinions in the
Cherokee Cation relative to the dispo-
sitIon of certain lands to the Govern
nent. A letter from Vlnlta says that in
some quarters the opinion obtaine
that the Cherokees have more land
than they can utilize, and 1t would be
much better to have the outlet and the
whole of Oklahoma opened up to set
tlement than held at present by cattle
kings. tits estimated that the lands
can be disposed OF at $1.20 per acre, al
though they were appraised some time
since at AZ cents per acre. The Union
party, IN its platform. unqualifedly
opposes the sale of the lands west Of
the ninety-sixth meridian at AZ cents
per acre, averring that said price was
arbitrarily set by the President, with
out authority or sanction OF law or
treaty. The International Council of
Cherokees, Creek, Choctaws, Chicka-
saws and Seminoles has adopted reso-
lutions calling on the government to
to pass certain measures now before
Congress for the remo oval of intruders,
and to present bills for the different
tribes prescribing more perfect extra
dition laws and for improved civil laws
also, protesting against the proposed
sale OF Oklahoma to the United States
resolving that the commissioners to be
appointed by President Cleveland shall
not be treated with.
