rhe world Losing it's Deserts.


The world is fast losing its deserts. There
was a day when the United States had one
of no small size. when it was claimed that
the land west of the Missouri river was a
barren waste The farmers of Kan
sas. Nebraska and Dakota have dis
posed of much of the great American
desert. Once upon time large portions
of the interior of Africa were believed 10
be arid and uncultivated. Now we learn
that they are fruit and well populated.
The interior OF Australia has been held up
as an awful example of bowling wilder
ness, destitute of water and of
animal or vegetable life. That
illusion is now being rapidly
dispelled. Recent explorers report that
inner Australia is no Sahara waste. and
that. though uninhabited. it can support
large population. There are grassy plains
and also traces of gold and precious stones.
A north and south railway in now building
through The center of Australia, and doubt
less. with its completion, the last trace
of the desert will vanish. The iron horse
is a wonderful dispeller of illusions of that
kind. The truth is that there are vast re-
gions on this continent. in Asia and
Australia. which are barren from the
standpoint of primitive and ignorant agri-
culture. but which, when taken in hand by
the educated farmer OF today, with his

Dear Sir-Miss Van Ormer can hear after
taking your medicines o. P. TT. for three
weeks. On the day she commenced taking
the treatment she could not hear the tick
ing of watch placed close TO her ear, nor
could she hear word that was said with
the well ear closed. This was the way we
tested her hearing. At the end OF two
weeks she could hear distinctly the ticking
OF watch. and yesterday after the expira-
ton of three weeks. could hear the watch
ticking with perfect distinctness and could
hear conversation uttered in low. distinct
tones at distance of ten feet from the
speaker, and this with the well ear closed,
and could hear without difficulty and
without making any effort to hear. Just
now she came to the door on the opposite
side of the room in which am writing.
fourteen feet from my desk, and closing
