Sir John B. Lawes finds that his grass
land contains twice as much nitrogen
as his titled land. The carly and late
growth of the grass catches the soluble
salts of nitrogen, and takes them up
through the roots, and allows little of
this fertility to leach away. na&
There are COWS that are naturally

The common red squirrel is in
some places great pest to pear grow

to care for the fruit. but cuts il in two,
eating out the seeds and leaving the

though beautiful, is destructive, and
should at least be kept within bounds.
One of his worst habits is in destroying
the nest and eggs of birds that are
fully as beautiful as himself, and fan
more valuable to man as destroyers Of

The Destroyer" Deprived of his Prey.

In the long records of human mis-
cry, disease and death, Consumption
has, for ages, occupied a prominent
and dreadful distinction as the "fell
destroyer" and to this ominous
prominence this tenacious and deadly
disease is well entitled. Close upon
its heels, in the characteristics of
deadliness and pain and the extent to
which it prevails, comes Cancer-the
fruitful source ofunspeakable distress,
the dreadful and ever-present assail-
ant of health, hope and happiness.
The following cases, given in the
voluntary testimony of the writers,
show how closely to the brink of
death these diseases brought two suf-
ferers in the same family, and how,
under Providence and by the use Of a
simple, well-known and wonderfully
eficacious remedy, they were rescued
from the deadly peril and restored to
health and vigor. We commend
this experience to the reader, and
particularly to those who themselves
suffer from similar diseases, or who
haYe friends or relatives in whose
restoration to health they are inter.

Cancer developed on my nose. Its
course ran steady until the septum
was entirely destroyed, and the dis
ease had nearly eaten through the
upper lip. The Cancer had a surface
on my nose and lip Of about four
inches. / had two doctors attending
me all the time, but they were unable
to arrest the progress of the malady.
My lungs were affected, / had terri
BILE cough and number of hemor-
rhages. l inherited Consumption,
that evil having carried off nearly all
my fathers people. Ny father had
hemorrhages and affected lungs, and
he was cured by S. s. S. His cure
suggested that maybe S. S. s. would
do me some good. About year ago
l began taking the Swift Specific, and
l have taken now only about thirty
bottles. The effect of the medicine
was to stop the sloughing of the Can
Ger and to very much improve the
condition of my lungs. The Cancer
has gradually yielded to the S. S. S
until now the lip is entirely healed
the nostrils are filling up and the
cartilage is being renewed rapidly
Persons who saw me year ago arr
surprised to see how greatly I have
improved, and how great that i'm
prOvement is. l am delighted at thu
result. My general health is good
and / feel like different woman t
what l was one year ago.

Horrible Fate of an Employee of the
Augusta Chemical Works.

dorrlDle rate or an Employe OF the
Augusta Chemical Works.
AUGUSTA, GA, Aug. 21.-The workmen
on one of the floors of the Georgia chemical
works of this city were startled about l
O'Clock to-day by seeing the legs of man
protruding through a hole in the floor
above from which ground phosphate rock
is emptied into the watts of acid. An alarm
was given and in few minutes a number
of workmen, headed by the Overseer, had
shoveled into the immense pile of dust,
which is SO light that the windows have to
be kept closed. as the slightest agitation of
the mass would float it Oft. 1t is partly
confined in a huge reservoir, and after
great difficulty the bottom of this
was reached and the lfeless form
of Peter McAlder white, aged 20
years, was found. 1t is thought
that the discharge conduit became choked,
and he, while attempting to free it, being
in charge, fell through, smothering in a
short time. In his efforts to breathe he had
swallowed great quantity of the dust, and
his throat. mouth and nostrils were choked
by hard Jumps formed by the dust he in
hailed. His elbows had saved his body from
falling through into tank of sulphuric
acid beneath the aperture. The deceased
had made application for a position as a
policeman, and in day or two he was to
quit the position he held when suffocated.
