SOME STARTLING FACTS.
The Discovery of the Cause of Most On,
timely Deaths that Come upon
the Community.

The official returns of the City of New York show
that nearly threefourths Of all deaths are from
consumption. When We stop to calmly think over
this fact, it is really awful. And yet every case
without exception started from small beginnings.
cough in the morning; tickling in the throat;
. thick phlegmy discharge; chilliness at night;
difficult breathing; tightness across the chest;
these and many more symptoms indicate the pres
encc of that terrible disease which, unless checked,
means certain death with long and painful suffer
ing.
In view Of such serious and ever-present facts
the suggestions and advice Of the most eminent
physicians are Of the greatest value.
Dr. John Gardner, one of the most eminent ply
sicians in London, says: Science, common sense,
Holy Scriptures and all experience testify to the
benefits derived from the Of pure whiskey."
ined Dufys Pure Malt whiskey, and find it the
best ever tried"
DR.. s. NJ. Buckwalter says: "DufTy's Pure Malt
Whisky is, without doubt the invalids drink when
stimulsnts are indicated, and find all chronic
cases require stmulants and a large per cent Of
the acute ones also"
These truths from the lips of the leading scientific
men of the day, and confirmed by the experience
Of men and women well known in the community
should serve as guide for all who feel the ap-
proach Of consumption matter by what path it
may come. We do not hesitate to assert that any
man or women who will use Dufys Pure Malt
Whisky accordingto directions can defy cOnsump-
ton and prolong life with all its blessings.

THE ENGLISH FARMER.
Investigations Show a Very Dis
couraging Condition of Affairs.

Investigations snow very DlS-
couraging Condition of Affairs.
Bells Messenger, published at Lon
don, England, has been investigating
the condition of agriculture in that
country, as indicated by the rent and
value of land. Replies were received
from several hundred correspond
entS engaged in land management,
and they are almost unanimously
discouraging. Rents have been
reduced % to so per cent, and in some
cases. rs per cent since 1880, but not
withStanding, farms do not rent so read
lily as then, with few exceptions. Money
is scarce, interest high, and the prices
of farm products ruinously low. 1t is
asserted that the purchasing power of
money has increased 80 per cent in ten
years, and of course prices have declined
that much. 1t must he kept in mind
that only small proportion of the land
in England is worked by the owners.
The greater proportion of the land is
owned by the nobility and others in
large bodies, and is let out in farms
or holdings. The condition of agri-
culture is therefore determined by
the rent that the lands will
bring and the demand for them by
tenants. AS an illustration of the
value of lands there, and the depre-
citation that has been going on, we give
the report of the correspondent from
Surrey. He estimates the reduction in
rents since 1876 to be SO per cent,
Times are not more encouraging than
twelve years ago. and last year he re-
CARDS as the worst of the series. An
arabic sheep farm of 500 acres rents at
81 500 per year, the tenant paying titheS
(the tenth part of the net profits,
which is paid to support the church,.
In 1868, three hundred and ninety acres
of this same land rented at $3.50, and
in 1874 at 50, $50. In 1880, three hundred
and eighty acres rented at $1,500. In
1885 the farms were increased to 500
acres each and the rent kept at S1,500,
on a three-yearS' lease. A mixed land
farm of 400 acres, with adjacent
shooting rights, rented at S2,450
per year in 1874; now it rents at 1850.
Another mixed farm of $50 acres rented
at $1,000 in 1867; now at 1925, with
Sliding scale of increase depending upon
profits. Another farm of LOG acres rent
ed at S400 for many years, tithes about
$500 paid by the tenant. 1t has just
been relet as follows: First year, S125;
second year, $3.50; third and following
years, $500.
These figures, representing depreci-
ated values, appear liberal enough from
an American standpoint. They would
support American land owners in lux
ury, but fail to support the eytravagant
expenditures with the necessary taxes,
repairs, etc., over there. The situation
is represented as Every bad" for the
English land owner, but the signs all
indicate that they will be worse yet.

Jim Harrison Scores a Victory
After Five Lively Rounds.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5.-A lively
five-round prize fight with skin gloves.
Queensberry rules, took place at Los
Angeles yesterday, resulting in the
Knockout of Charles Burke by Jim
Harrison. Burke was a restaurant
waiter, and Harrison an eX-member of
the San Francisco Olympic club. Both
are clever boxers and game. Two hun
bred sports assembled in a dance hall
to see the fight, which was strictly &C
cording to rules. Harrison weighed
only 13S pounds to Burke's 16O, but he
was in fine condition. After the second
round Harrison forced the fighting. He
followed Burke around the ring maui
ing him numerically. At the begin
ming of the fourth round Burke could
scarcely see, and blood flowed from his
nose in a stream. In the last round
Burke could not stop the blows, and he
was battered almost into insensibility.
Blind and bleeding he sank into his
corner and threw up the sponge. There
was heavy betting among the politicians
and sports present.

THE FARMER BOY.
His Lot a Favored One as Viewed
by CIarkson in the Iowa State
REGISTER

Register.
Let no boy on the farm bewail his
hard lot. Though he may have plain
clothes, awkward ways and stern vir-
tues. yet he knows what dollar is
worth. The writer. though now near
four-scOre years, recollects wildly his
homemade jeans coat, and especially
the one he had on when he left
home at seventeen, to fight the battles
of life alone. And he recollectS. too,
some of the first town boys with whom
he came in contact, who wore cassi-
mere, made in more nObby style than
those made on the farm by a good
mother. But while those boys had
fine clothes, rich parents. good school
advantages, they had also temptations,
such as the ball room, the saloon, the
private game of cards, and other name
less temptations, which the boy who has
been trained to work ever since he was
old enough to pick up basket of chips
had not.
1t is generally supposed that the city
boy has many advantages over the
country boy. But such is not the case.
Our actual experience is that of dozen
town boys who were well dressed and
had plenty of money to pay for any
thing their appetite or fancy desired,
and who were very rude and inSOlent
TO four other country boys who had
Just gone to town to learn trades, all of
the first dozen boys, the sons of good
families, passed over the river before
forty-sOme in disgrace for crimes,
some by dissipation, while others years
ago disappeared and left no mark. But
all of the country boys who were treated
badly by the town boys, and who prob
ably, but wrongfully. felt their inferior
ity on account of their clothing, lack
of money and rough manners, became
worthy, industrious citizens, attained to
honorable positions in society, raised
families who have distinguished them
selves in literature, politics and
patriotic deeds, and three out of
the four yet live hOnOred in old age.
The boys who were petted and PAM
pered sixty years ago are dead, their
ten. They lacked the stern virtues
which are so generally bred into the
bows who see and feel how slowly
money is made on the farm. A boy
who wears plain clothes and works one
half of the year to raise the money to
pay for his schooling the other
half, is far more a subject
of envy than the boy who
goes to college, has all the money he
wants for fine clothes and useless lux
uries, and spends his vacation in rounds
of gaiety and riotous living. That
farmers boy who depends upon his own
exertions, wears plain clothes, and APP
plies himself to his study, has grand
future before him, and we beseeeh
him not to bewail his hard lot in
life. He has a glorious future. The
world is waiting to see his honest life
and NOBLE record. The fields of enter
prise have been specially reserved for
his triumph. His destiny Is upward,
and the world will yet do him homage.
