did so and had his eyes opened when the
report came back that it was a bogus
one so far as the date was concerned at
least. The 1904 dollar will continue to
travel about and serve as a bitter for
those who are willing that others should
be bitten. There is not much sympathy
felt for a mar who thinks that through
the ignorance of q seller he is getting
something for about one-sixth OF what it
is really worth.

kRUPP'S GUN WORKS.
A Gigantic Establishment Which Employs
 Over Eleven Thousand Men.

A Gigantic Establishment Which Employs
 Over Eleven Thousand Men.
 The steel casting works of Krupp cover an area of about 1000 acres of land, in which II, 211 men are employed in the production of steel, and also in the manufacture of countless different articles, such as axles, wheels, etc., for locomotives and railroad carriages; rails, switches and sleepers for rail ways, tramways, and mining railways; springs-spiral and leaf-for locomo- tives and carriages; parts of all kinds of machinery used for any purpose; bridge material and rolls; material for large pumps as used in mines; all requisite steel and iron material for the building of ships of all sizes, for war and commercial purposes; cannons of every caliber- the production of them having already exceeded 20,000-an last, gun-car- riages, artillery wagons and shots.
 The gross production of iron and steel averages 260, 1000 tons per annum.
 For accommodation of traffic and shipping in the establishment are used 2S locomotives with 8S3 freight car riages. About 45 miles of narrow and broad gauge railroad line is laid through the establishment. One chemical laboratory, 1 photographic and Photographic studio, 1 print ing office and book-bind- ing establishment are at work for the sole use of the firm. Telegraph and telephone communication goes all over the factory and an engine company with 6S fremen and 3S fire alarms is also there for the bene- fit of the establishment.
 This is the gigantic workshop to which you can see a regular stream of human beings run in the morning. The entire establishment is surrounded by a high wall, or fence. There are only certain gates where the workmen are to enter. Cor. Pittsburgh Dis 7lntch

BEWARE OF DRUGS.
Mental Relaxation the Only Legltimat
 Relief from Insomnia.

Mental Relaxation the Only Legitimate Relief from Insomnia.
 A writer in the American Magazine
 refers to the numerous applications
 which are made to medical men to pre- scribe some drug that will be effective
 to produce sleep and be at the same time harmless. He states without
 qualification that mo such drug ex-
 ists," and his opinion will be indorsed
 by all intelligent doctors. Choral,
 bromine and opium in some of their
 forms, with smaller quantities of other
 drugs, are used by many thousands of
 Americans for the purpose of produc-
 ing sleep, and not a few of them go to
 bed every night under the influence of
 some one of these poisons, the rapidly
 increasing consumption of which tells
 of a continuous widening in the
 circle of human beings who are
 infatuated enough to use these dangerous substances under the false
 impression that they are remedial and
 not poisonous, Sleep thus obtained is
 not restful nor recuperative, and in every case where these drugs are re- sorted to Nature sternly exacts her
 penalties for the violation of law The
 digestive powers give way first, and few months of persistence after the first symptoms of stomachic derange- ment are observable, reduce the pa- tient to the condition of one who long ago remarked that he was starving in the midst of plenty, though hungry enough when no food was before him. Intense nervousness follows soon upon this stage, and it is not long ere the only comfortable hours of existence are those passed under the influence of the narcotic. The use of these things is actually more harmful to the constitution than would be equiv alent quantities of alcoholic stimulant, though they are taken by many who would shrink with horror from the proposition to drink spirituous liquors, or even the milder decOctiOns of malt. The only legitimate relief from the evil, insomnia, is to be found in a re- taxation of the mental pressure that induces it, following this by bodily ev- ercise, judicious bathing and strict temperance in food as well as drink. The great objections to this remedy are its simplicity and cheapness, but in spite of that fact the course indi- cated is the only one by which thou sands can avoid what is as bad as a grave.-C Chicago Tribune.

EASY lNTIMAClES.
Why They Are to Be Avoided by Young as
 Well as Old Persons.

Why They Are to Be Avoided by Young as
 Well Old Persons.
 A writer in a London paper dis courses about the danger of easy ''in- timacies" that is, of giving the cOnf- dence to the people of whom one knows nothing except that they are pleasant companions when they are met socially. "The danger lies," he says, lin the facility with which com panionship of this kind is mistaken for true intimacy, though it does not really imply any thing approaching to it." A woman twill trust her life to the keeping of a man, of whose aims, of whose standard of right and wrong, of whose power of habit of giving up to the standard she knows just as much and just as little as she does of the actors whom she has seen on the stage, though she is deceived into thinking she knows more, only be- cause she happens in this case to have been one of the actors and not merely passive spectator" There is more truth than poetry in this thought, for in nine cases out of ten the two persons who come together in marriage have no more conception each of the others rue character and real disposition than of those of dozen others in their circle of acquaintance. They are sim ply pleasant, social companions, and that is all. There are quite as many mistakes made in friendship through these ''easy intimacies," though the consequences are not as far-reaching. Women, especially, are apt to give their confidence to those with whom they have been familiarly associated when they never proved their trust worthiness. It is one thing to have pleasant little familiar conversations about every day matters; it is another to impart what perhaps touches the inner life, and which made light of, or misrepresented, would place one in an uncomfortable position, or possibly even worse, injure the reputation or put it in the gossip's hands to do with as they please. A real friend, true friend, one who can be trusted to enter the holy of holies of your heart with out desecrating it, is among the best gifts that life can offer, bIt they are found in small numbers and are only proved by trial. A certain amount of reserve, even with familiar companions, is good thing to employ, for it gives not only a sense of safety, but of security. Toledo Blade.

HOME AND FARM.

It is matter of economy as we'll ns mercy to properly mate horses that have to work side by side through the siege of hard work during summer.
 Water that stands in metal tanks or silver pitchers without porcelain lining is unsafe for drinking. The same is true of water that stands for any length of time uncovered in a room.
 Lime in a fine condition. sprinkled on the vines and around them, will greatly assist in protecting cucumber and squash from bugs. Saltpeter Ca teaspoonful dissolved in quart of wa ter) is also protection.
 A farmer is mentioned by 'Laws of Life" whose womenfolk drive gen. tie horse hither and thither on errands ito store, mill or blacksmith's. ''It's good for them to get out; they go as prompt again as boy, and if you send a boy the COWS are sure to break into the corn or the pigs to root loose while he is away"
 Blackberry Mush: To two quarts of ripe fruit add one pint and half of boiling water and pound of white sugar. Boil slowly twenty minutes, then stir in a scant pint of wheat four, cook ten minutes longer, stirring con- stantly to prevent burning. Turn into greased mold and serve when cold with cream or hard sauce
 -Spiced Beef: For a round weigh ing twenty pounds, rub with dessert spoonful of saltpeter on both sides and let it remain over night. Then take a soup-plateful of salt, a tablespoonful of ground cloves, one of allspice, and one of cayenne pepper. Rub the beef every day with a tablespoonful of it, until it is used. and turn it each day. Boil in nearly enough water to cover it. Eat cold cut in thin slices.
 The use of cottonseed or linseed meal as food for stock should begin gradually. One gill per day is suffi- cient the first week. It may be in- creased until from one to two pounds are given per day. The quantity all lowed should be regulated according to the proportion of other food used, the concentrated foods being used to balance that which may be partially deficient in some desirable element.
 A good mixture to have in the house is composed of ammonia, two ounces; soft water, one quart; salt peter, one teaspoonful; shaving soap, one ounce. Scrape the soap fine be- fore mixing the other ingredients and allow 1t to stand few hours before using It is sure death to bed bugs if applied to the crevices which they in- habit; it will remove paint that is mixed with oil without injuring the finest fabrics, and will remove grease from carpets by covering the spots with the the mixture, and after spong- ing and rubbing it thoroughly wash it of with clear cold water.

FRANCES DANGER.
Her Continual Loss of Population Fore
 shadows Her Decay.

shadows Her Decay.
 If all European nations agreed to limit population-just as if all nations agreed to disarm-an epoch of marked material prosperity would no doubt ensue. At present, however, there seems no chance whatever of this, and we are engaged in general scramble to overstock our own countries, and thence to overspread the earth. A na- tion which falls out of this scramble may gain in comfort for the time, but it will lose its status; its specific type will become relatively unimportant; its thought and literature will lose their power with mankind. Great and powerful though France is now, such countries as Holland and Belgium are not without their warning for her in the near future. In fifty years, if the present rates of increases are main tained, she will rank sixth only among European nations. In one hundred and fifty years she will have sunk almost beneath consideration in world of Russians and Germans, Anglo Saxons and Chinese. Without repro ducing the elaborate computations by which the relative decline of France has been exhibited by statisticians, it is enough to say that in the present acute phase of national competition France can not afford to forego the motive power of the yer sacrum-of yearly swarms of young men pressing forward to develop their country either by colonization without her borders or by novel and eager enterprise within. At the same time it is of course desir- able that multiplication should be com bined with providence-that the in- crease of numbers should not proceed from the lowest and most reckless classes alone. Now, in comparing the natality or rate of increase of different provinces in France, it seems that the increase is rapid in two main quarters-first Gas with our selves) among the degraded inhabit- ants of the poorer quarters of great cities, and secondly, in those provinces where Catholicism is still dominant power Between Catholic Brittany and free-thinking Normandy the contrast is striking, and the more so inasmuch as the difference of race between these provinces seems all in favor of the Norman population, whose young mothers, indeed, are in special request for the benefit of infants other than their own. Yet the annual births in Brittany are thirty-three for each thou sand of population; in Normandy only nineteen. Now, in the educated classes, where rapidity of increase is still more important, the impulses in either direc- tion, though less crudely defined, are. not therefore less potent. On one side there are the wish for new objects of affection and the satisfaction with the lot upon which the children will enter; on the other side, besides the obvious

While carrier was driv- ing his team to town last winter his legs, fingers, ears and nose were frozen. At the time his life was despaired of Both his legs had to be cut off, and only one finger on each hand could be saved. His nose was replaced by an artificial one, and his ears were clip ped. He bore his sufferings with re- markable compOsure, and, having been supplied with artificial legs and feet, he can now get about with the help of two simple sticks. It is surprising that with one finger he is able to write fell.-Vjeal1lG Letter.

 Noticing an inquiry from one of my brother farmers for cheap farm tele- phone, will give directions for con- struction. Purchase steel-binder wire. Get two cigar-boxes, take the lids off, and cut three-quarter hole in the bottom of each box; then get some stiff wire q use steel ribs out of an umbrella) and cut into pieces little longer than the box is wide. Wrap the telephone wire around these wires, one at each end. 1 planted one post every quarter of mile. Oak makes the best post. Cut the posts with a fork on them. Bore small hole through each prong and tie a string Heather is what 1 used) to the prongs of the forks; then let the telephone wire rest on the string fastened in the fork of the post. Select as solid places as possible to put the boxes against. Plane off a board a lit tie larger than the box, for the box to rest against. Bore a hole through this DOdru accOrd1ng to ulfecGlOn Ol tne telephone line. Put the wire through the box and fasten the box up with little nails driven in at the side. Now put up the wire, and don't stretch it too tight. Fasten up the other box in the same way. uyOu get it up so that it talks as nicely as the one I have, you would not do with out one. My telephone has been in use four years, and has not cost me a cent since put the wire up.
