Wild Asters.

Joseph Mechan in the Practical FarnerI
1t would surprise any one to see what
number of beautiful sorts of wild as
ters there are when q collection of those
growing in the wood are brought togeth-
er. In the roads and fields near here We
have over q dozen kinds, many of them
of great beauty; and 1t does not take q
journey of many miles to add half dog
en- more to the list. And the aster IL
not local flower, as species are found
all over the country. Considering that
these plants bloom late in the season,
when most all other sorts are over for
the year, they could be employed in dec
Grating the flower border in autumn much
more than they are. Occasionally have
heard it remarked that there are no
snowy flowers among them, but those
who say this cannot have seen the one
called novse anglasa, the New England
aster. 1t grows wild here, and q more
snowy flower does not exist. When OBJ
served in its wild state for the first time
1t impresses every one with the idea that
they are looking on some exotic flower
which has got away from cultivation.
The flowers are dark purple, large and
are produced in the utmost profusion
Beautiful as such specimens as patens,
punieeus. spectabilis and like ones are.
they are not as snowy as it is AS these
sorts and other valuable natives are not
easily obtained in cultivation, IL is q good
way to mark the different sorts while in
flower, noting the color, TO properly ar
range the sorts in planting, and then, when
Towering is over, transplant them to the
| garden. While some kinds are found in
wet places and others in dry ones, all will
| grow in any good garden soil. And very
| often when grown nicely in gardens,
1 with plenty OF room to develop, they
/ will make a finer display than when in
| their wild state. The one first mentioned,
the nevR angl@a, is great favorite here,
| judging from the many beautiful speci
mems blooming in gardens in the month
| of October. And while mentioning wild
asters, let me say, too, that the wild gold.
| en- rods should find place inside the
i grounds. On large estates here thess
i plants are massed for effect, to give 6
blaze of golden color in the fall. As
many as a dozen plants are set together
and when in full display there are nc
cultivated exotics that please SO well as

ARE WE ALL TO BE RICHl

Perhaps we are on the "eve of a great
discovery" and perhaps, as has been the
case before, the idea of crank may have
something in it. The other day solemn
fellow walked up to the door of one of the
Vanderbilt houses in New York and said:
have called to get Mr.. Vanderbilt's
brains. I wish to take his brains to o
chemical laboratory and have them EXAM
ined. want to see what difference there
is between the brains of the man in this
house and my own. By this means 1 may
be able to learn why am so poor. Mr..
Vanderbilt has been able to accumulate a
large amount of money, while have failed
to make cent, and as it is all owing to the
difference in our brains I must ascertain
just wherein the difference lies.
This reasonable and courteous request
was refused. Mr.. Vanderbilt's brains
were not handed out to him, and he did
not get an opportunity to test his idea.
But he or some other may yet get hold of
q rich mans brains and put them through
a scientific examination in full accordance
with the comprehensive and useful germ
theory. What a sensation would be
caused should such an examination dis
close the wealth producing microbe in full
activity. 1t could be cultivated and
every poor mans brains could be in
oculated with it, and soon there would
be no poor men. And after everybody
was rich somebody in whose brains the
miracle of lofty intellect existed could be
called on to the uplifting of the rich men
in mind Then incubation with the moral
microbe could be made general and the
world would be all right. When all this
was brought about even DR.. Dibble would
be converted to the germ theory and the
Old Sanitarian would see of the travail of
his soul and be satisfied.
Most of us want money first. There
fore, won't some rich man-some very
rich man-donate his brains for the ex-
animation which is necessary to test the
attractive theory which so filed the
thoughts of the man who asked Wander,
bilt for hist If his theory should turn
out to be sound the man who gave lis
brains to test it could be sure of very
large and snowy monument.

storing 1t. instead of letting il ooze out and
run of into the rivulets and streams, be-
came one of grave concern.
However, necessity was the mother of in
yention then as now, and Senator Camden
determined that the product of his wells
should not 60 to waste. his exehequer was
mighty slim at the time, but, with the as
distance of some good friends, be bought q
big old fatboat and moored it to tree on
the river bank. From his two wells he
troughed the oil into the boat.
In the meantime Mr.. Camden had made
contract with General Sam Carnes of
Boston, who was the pioneer oil refner, to
deliver 1900 barrels at Psrkersburg in
bulk at the rate of twenty-five cents a gal
lon. The capacity of MI. Camden's fat
boat was just about that amount, and the
prospect of $50, ,000-all his own-was to
him at that time something prodigious.
When his boat was filed he set out for
Parkersburg, thirty miles away, with his
precious cargo. He drifted with the stream
and, after many hardships, reached his des-
tination. General Carnes was there with his
empty barrels. They transferred the oil
from the fstbost to the barrels with
scoops and pals, and when the work was
finished Mr.. Camden received $50, 900 in
cold cash.

If there is tendency to excess of perspira-
ton, add tablespoonful of household am-
monia or teaspoonful of carbonate of
soda to each gallon of warm water used in
the footbath. If there is pain in the joints
or swelling and redness, paint the affected
parts with iodine. If there is a general
sense of pain and of aching WEAKNESS, to
strengthen them rub the feet with weak
arnica or wipe them with a cloth wrung
from strong solution of alum. Many
children, and many adults as well, are rem
dered sleepless at night by painful or rest
less feet, and the trouble often extends into
the daytime; and such unnatural condi-
tions are the result of natures protest
against treating these useful members with

The Beginning Of a MfIlionaire's
Wealth.

TFrom the Baltimore American-l
The richest man in West Virginia is ex-
Senator johnson n. Camden. His wealth
is estimated at between eight and ten mil
lions of dollars Few know anything about
the neucleus around which grew Mr.. Cam
denis vast possessions and how he obtained
it.
1t was in the year 1880, when oil was
first discovered in West Virginia. Ar.
Camden had q few acres of land in the
Burning Springs district, about thirty
miles north of Parkersburg, on the Little
Kanawha River. In this land Mr.. Camden
bored two wells. They were the second
and third wells bored for oil, only one hay
ing been sunk a few weeks previous tc
them, and that one was only partially sue
cessful, so far as striking oil was concerned
and wholly 30 as regards profit, for itl
owner didn't know what in the world to dt
with 1t. The question of saving the oil and

Deposits in the savings banks of Brook

some 81 900, 900 this year, for what cause
is not known. Perhaps the panic of
last year scared people so that they want
their money where they can look at it.
The last words of great men are always

Isssunexamp1ed in shoe trade history. M.
Bristol & Sons are selling out. Our con-
nectien with the new ''Bristol Shoe Manu-
featuring Company" on Orange street
makes this imperative. Our entire stock
of boots and shoes must be out of our
store within the next six weeks. $50, 200
worth of boots and shoes must be sold.
Former prices knocked out, positively.
This sacrifice beats them all.
Friday morning, December 18th, our
prices will be cut all along the line, and
bargains unheard of will be offered.
We determined after 30 years of business
to manufacture and sell our own goods,
and as consequence our Bristol Shoe
Manufacturing company was organized
last month. Its finished product ID now
ready for our disposition. We must use
our own new shoes and therefore must
clean out all other makes.
The consideration for cost or former
prices is out of the question. 'Twould be
folly to look elsewhere for shoes of the same
grade at our prices. Raw leather cannot
be bought as cheap. We mention few OF
our unapproachable bargains:
Ladies' Pat. Tip Button, value $3.50
now 80 cents.
Ladies' $3.50 Pat. Tip Button Shoes
now $1.65.
