EX-GOVERNOR ST. JOIN. he whom
the Republicans of Kansas repudiated
and kicked out of the party a few years
ago, is now, as usual, working at fifty
dollars night and expenses, in criticiz-
ing the Administration and personal
of President Harrison. Like
his exertiOns TO become great man, St.
Johns efforts to malign and traduce
President Harrison is wasted wind, but
it is marvellous to behold what adaman-
tine qualities of cheek he possesses.
That st. John should erect standard
for any one to follow is positively ridic-
ulous. a mercenary reformer is con-
temptible character, and st. Johns ev-
cry action indicates that he belongs to
that class. How he can so easily gull
the party to which he claims allegiance
is without the confines of explanation.
THE Farmers Alliance of North Caro-
lima numbers 10000 members, more than
half the number of white voters in the
State. No wonder there is shimmering
aspect on political affairs down there
especially when this force is actively en-.
gagged in the political field.

STOCK AND FARM.

Salina Journal: About $4,000 head
of cattle are being fed near Brookville
this winter. This industry is bringing
great deal of money into our city.
Atchison Champion: Thomas Warner,
aged twelve years, residing in Lancas-
ter township of this county, yesterday
received from VIM. H. Maule, seeds
man of Philadelphia, draft of S25 as a
prize for raising the largest ear of pop
corn; said ear was twelve and a half
inches in length.
Winfield Courier: Mr.. Elliot, of Will
mot, is a representative Cowloy man,
and the country would be better off if
it was full of men of that class. He
has at present on his farm over 400
head of beef steers to feed, which he
has bought, and has piled up 10000
busheld of corn. This is a sight to
make a stock mans heart rejoice, and
represents thousands of dollars, making
home market for home produce.
Osborne Journal: John Cronk, one
of Osborne's thrifty farmers, speaking
of the loss of stock, said he had been
allowing his horses and cattle to run in
his corn fields for the past four weeks
without any damage. He invariably
feeds them in the morning all they
need, and about nine o'clock waters
them, taking care that all drink, and
then turns them into the fields and pays
no more attention to them during the
day. He makes one statement that on
second thought seems to be well found
ed in sense, and that is, that cattle will
not drink early in the morning, nor
until they have eaten their fill, and this
is especially SO where they are depend
ed upon to go to running water of their
own accord. He says they will not go
into a pond or stream before eating,
especially in cod weather. He is of
the opinion that where they are first
fed and watered, and then turned into
the field, no i'll effects will follow.

AN Augusta, Me-, storekeeper was
formerly possessed of an overwhelming
desire to examine the contents of every
package which friends deposited in his
store for safe-keeping. His propensi-
ties in this direction have been effect
uaily stopped, and this is how it hap
pened: A man who suspected the weak
ness of the proprietor dropped into the
store one morning and left bag. ask
ing that no one disturb it. The pro-
prietor walked around awhile restless
ly and then stopped near the bag. He
nervously fingered the string tnat tied
the top together. There was no one
looking, and he carefully united it.
He was hardly prepared for the result.
A thousand of about as mad hornets as
were ever let loose lit on all the ex-
posed portions of the mans anatomy,
permeated his clothing quite thorough
ly, and the way he shot out of that
door and home would have done credit

their tribe. The angler casts his line
in one of these pools, literally swarm.
ing with fish to all appearances, and
no matter how attractive the fly or
how skillful the fisherman, he never

to be, no one has ever yet been able to
catch trout in that stream The fish
pay no attention to the hook or line.

or an attempt is made to spear them,
the instrument has the appearance of
passing through the fish, but he is not
caught; when the barb or spear is re-
moved, he is still there.

Deafness Can,t be Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There IS only one
way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or Imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces. We viii give One
