Heart Failure. Sudden Death.

The prayer of the christian pleads for
guardianship against sudden death, and yet
alas, how many leave the world for better
or for worse without single moment s
warning He died of heart failure. The
tired and weary heart failed while engaged
in its momentous task of pumping he blood
from the arteries and forcing it into every
big and little vein that the wasting tissues
of the flesh might be replenished. How i'm
portant then that the great stream OF life be
kept pure and it's corpuscles red and active,
lest the fluid grows clogged and sluggish,
and the heart in an extraordinary effort
snaps without signal the thread of its
muscular strength. 1t is your duty as one
who loves the life that God has given him,
to assist nature in maintaining free action
of the circulatory system by keeping the
blood in state of purity and health. Nature
has supplied healing and strengthening
herbs for this purpose Science has discov-
cred what they are and the eminent DR.
John Bull, Of Louisville, KY. has blended
them in his superior preparation known as
DR.. Bulls Sarsaparilla. Demand it of your
druggist. Take no other.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS.
LIVESTOCK NOTES,
Use plenty of bedding.

Use plenty of bedding.
GROOMING is as healthful in. the winter
as in summer.
WARM the bits before putting them
into the horses mouths.
HORSES should be turned out for exer-
else every pleasant day.
To GET the best results handling and
training should begin when the colt is
very young.
ONE-THIRD each of corn, oats and bar
ley ground together makes a good
winter ration.
KEEPING the horses heels and legs
clean in the winter is the best preven-
tive for scratches.
STANDING in wet manure tends to
make the feet of the horse tender. Keep
the stable clean.
IT is generally best to keep one team
well shod during the winter to use on
the road when slippery.
CoLTs will make better growth and
development if they are given a light
feed of ground oats every day.
CHANGE the feed often enough to keep
all stock with good appetites. They
will thrive better on less feed.
SOME people whog give the cattle the
best of care neglect the hogs. The hog
will repay good care as well as other
kinds of stock.
GUARD against constipation in swine.
The fat forming foods tend to produce
costiveness. The opposite kinds of food
tend to prevent it.
BE careful of the eyes of animals.
They are just as delicate as the eyes of
human beings. People often work
around stock very carelessly with forks.
The swine breeder who feeds oil meal
occasionally will not regret it. It is
tonic and regulator of the bowels.
Care should be taken not to feed too
much.
GROOMING is cheap way of improv-
ing the condition of the horse. 1t can
be done at the simple cost of curry
comb and brush and the expenditure of
a little elbow grease which will never
be missed
ALWAYS remember that hog is
hog, and consequently, as the animal
has no Judgment about eating, you
must exercise judgment for it. Better
let the animal go little hungry than
to feed it beyond its capacity to utilize
the food.
THE manure of the pig pen is very
yaluab BILE. One writer estimates the
value of pigs manure at dollar and
forty-two cents for every one hundred
pounds from the time of birth to time of
slaughtering. There is no better man
urc for roots.

The condition of discomfort pervades
all human society, and so farmers are
constantly seeking to better them
selves" by change. either in locality,
occupation or products. One, for in

raising hops, and straightway resolves
to try a few acres while it is likely he
knows nothing of the exacting require
ments. Another reads glowing ac-
counts of demand and high price for
certain kinds of fruit in the city. and
this story is. brooded over until some
tree peddler drops in with his beguiling

order for trees the purchaser can not

every obstacle is overcome Among nv
acquaintance are men who have accu-
mulated confOrta BILE fortunes in raising
turnips and cabbages others in raising
celery, asparagus and similar common
vegetables. Their fortunes were not
made in year or two. but in ten to
twenty years. If man has sense
enough not to attempt cultivation of
crop unsuited to his soil, climate and
market, it will make little difference
what other kinds he raises-whether
peanuts, potatoes, grain or fruit-for If
plucky and ready to learn from expe-
rience, he is bound to win. 1t is not
the crop that wins, but the man back
of it.-A. S. Fuller, in n. Y. Tribune.

THERE is more Catarrh in this section Of
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether and until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For a great many
years doctors pronounced it a local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly falling to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j.

A SKY SCRAPER.
Explorer Russell Estimates the Height Of
Mount St. Elias at 5000 to $4,000

VANCOUVER, B. c., Oct. 2O.-Profes-
sor Israel c. Russell, who was sent by
the United States government and the
National Geographical society to ex
plore the region about Mt. st. Elias,
arrived here today. He left in June
for Alaska and went to Ice bay on the
United States revenue cutter "Bear."
His party consisted OF Il. p. Stainey,
Neil McCarty, J. III. Crumsack, Frank
S. p. Wainer and Thomas White.
White was drowned by the upsetting
of boat. Otherwise the expedition
was complete success. They ascend
ed Mt. st. Elias on the north side,
reaching an elevation OF fourteen
thousand five hundred feet, when they
were turned back by clouds and a
severe snow storm. From observa-
tions taken the mountain Is between
eighteen and nineteen thousand feet
high. The party then explored the
coast from Ice bay to Disenchantment
bay, a distance of about one hundred
miles, and also the glaciers.

Blaine's Letter.

Minneapolis Tribune: Mr.. Blaine's
letter settles the question as to his
views on the tariff and the Mckinley
bill, if any settlement were needed.
The fact is, iIe !4as always Seen d most
ardent protectionist, and it was he
who threw down the gage of battle to
Cleveland when the latter sent his
free-trade message to congress. Mr..
Blaine deemed the matter so import
ant that he had two or three columns
in answer thereto cabled to the New
York papers from London, where he
happened to be at the date the mes
sage appeared. His opinion OF the
Mckinley bill was expressed the day
it was signed by the president in his
room at the capitol. "It is the great
est measure which has passed congress
for years." said Mr.. Blaine, and as
the presidents secretary took up q
pad to "blot" the signature Mr..
Blaine stopped him, saying: Let the
ink dry on the signature to that doc
ument. 1t cannot be too bold"
The statement about Blaine's oppo-
sition to the Mckinley bill were well
known to be untrue by those familiar
with his views, but they were kept up
until the Republicans OF Ohio, tired OF
this reiteration, asked Mr.. Blaine to
state, over his own signature, what
his views were and what he had said.
He did so, and now the twaddle should
cease. 1t is to be regretted that his
letter published yesterday was not
given to the public year ago.

Benefits Of Protection.

C. P. Kimball, a Chicago carriage
manufacturer, writing for the Inter
Ocean, replying to the query as to how
wages compare in Europe with those
of this country in his line, says:
"In America a good mechanic in our
line earns on an average SO per day.
In England the same man receives
from 81 80 to SIT per day, and this
too, in a country where all manner of
food is higher than it is in America,
the only possible exception in the liv-
ing expenses being that house rents
are a tritie less there than here, while
as for clothing believe that with the
low price of ready made clothing In
America, the laboring man can pur-
chase better wearing and fitting ap-
parel for the same amount than he
can in all Europe. In France the
same grade OF mechanic receives about
81 40 per day, and here especially,
should he live equally well with the
American mechanic, his expenses
would be fully as much. In Belgium
the same man would receive about 81
per day, but here the cost of living is
much less than in either England or
France. In Germany about S1.2O per
day. In Russia about S1.50 per day.
In Austria, so cents. In Italy, As
cents. All of the above figures may be
taken as nearly correct and from con-
versations that / have had with en-
ployers and With men at their work.
To this must be added also, the fact
that in nearly all continental coun-
tries the workmen begin their work at
SIX O'Clock in the morning, at eight
O'Clock a. m. have thirty minutes for
black bread and coffee; at noon, one
hour for bread and beer; at $50
O'Clock p. M, fifteen minutes for beer
and a bit OF bread, and at Z o'clock
p. m. end their long day, to return to
homes where the cooking stove is an
unknown article, as on the continent
meat is almost unknown to these peo-
pie, and they mostly buy their provi-
sions ready cooked at shops and small
cafes provided for that class ofpeople.
England is the only country that
furnishes a home life for the mechanic
that can be compared at all with
America. And even there the wages
are not sufficient so that these people
can accumulate anything for old age,
or provide themselves with homes as
they do in America.
Another thing must be considered IN
this matter, that outside of England
the intelligence OF the mechanics can
not be compared to that of the English
or American workman. Dulled by
long hours of hard labor, in many
cases insufficient food, and with but
little hope OF bettering their condition
from generation to generation, they
plod along, simply living from day to

les do in ten hours.

Hall; but ask Grover Cleveland if he
is willing to go out boldly and bravely
and say Eyes, 1 do approve of Tam
many, as being on the whole an emf
nently fit representative of Democ-
racy and all the aspirations of Democ-
racy." l ask Grover Cleveland if he
is willing to make such q statement
in public. Is it not too bad that he
felt the necessity of maintaining his
party regularity by going before a
great audience and saying pretty
things aout the necessity for Demo-
cratic unity this fall? l say was it not
too badP After his speech he was
under the necessity OF introducing
Governor Hill. Here is another pretty
feature of it. This is the way Grover
Cleveland introduces his friend, David
B. Hill. Imagine, now, if you can.

they have always been! Laughter.

circumstance to the great well.springs
of affection that bubbled up from the
hearts of Cleveland and Hill as they
met on that occasion. Laughter.

its place there will be the legend of
Grover and David. Great laughter. |
1t works a wonderful change in a man

thence converted into coin. In the
