''Castoria is the best remedy for children Of
which am acquainted. i hope the day Is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children. and use Castoria in
stead of the quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

1t Ia only during recent years thSt
scientific farming has taken place at
Importance. as is shown by the dsvel-
opment OF places for its study. The
agricultural experiments of Mr.. j. B.
Lawes were begun in 1884, and in 1843
he associated with himself DR.. j. II.
Gilbert in the establishment OF the now
world-famous Rothamstead experiment
station. The first government exper-
iment station, however. was estab-
lished at Mockern, Saxony, in 1851.
A second followed at Chemnitz in 1858.
In 1855 there were five, in 1856 there
were thirty in 1873 there we're sixty
three, while there are now ITO in
France and Germany alone. The first
experiment station il America was
opened at Middletown, Conn, on Oc-
tober, 1875, scarcely sixteen years
ago. There were seventeen stations in
fourteen states when, in March, 1887,
the Hatch act passed congress giving
each state $15, 900 annually for the
support OF agricultural experiment sta
tions. This led to a rapid increase OF
stations, so that there are now fifty
three in the United States. or sixty
nine II branch stations are counted.
The 423 persons employed at these
| stations include chemists, horticulture
lists. botanists, entomologists veteri-
narians, meteorologists, biologists,
microscopes, physicists, mycologists,
viticulturists, biologists, etc.

The report OF the physician in charge
OF the Ningpo Missionary Hospital for
the past year contains some interesting
observations on tooth-drawing in
China. DR.. Daily remarks that Chi
nese teeth are much more easily ex-
tracted than those OF Europeans. The
native dentists are said to possess n
wonderful powder, which is rubbed on
the gum over tho affected tooth; after
an interval OF about five minutes the
patient is told to sneeze, whereupon
the tooth falls out. DR.. DAILY has Of
fered reward OF 500 to anyone per-
forming the operation in this way in
his presence. on condition that he is
allowed to choose the tooth and ex-
anime the mouth before and afterward.
So far no one will consent to perform
the operation on these conditions. -

While a fair young daughter OF
York, Pa. was serenely seated in her
aerial bedchamber the other night
weary with the tolls of the day about
to doff her wrap and lay herself down
upon her couch to enjoy the kindly
embrace of Morpheus, she suddenly
heard strange noise. which almost
bewildered her. 1t was an old family
clock which had been stored away in
the room. It's truthful tones had not
been heard for half century, when
all at once its wheels began to vibrate
and the old familiar gong sounded out
the time OF night--11 o'clock. 1t did
not strike or tick again, but stopped,
not to go again. The alarm is mys-
terry and the timid lassie awaits in
breathless silence the sequel OF the
occasion.

In the ring of asteroids more than
800 tiny planets are now known OF
which the largest Vesta, is $50 miles

form body not quite 5l4 miles in di-

would be required to make planet

coveries arc not likely to change these
figures materially. as all asteroids hav-
ing considerable size must be already
known.

AlphonsO Taft.

The Troy Times says: Alphonso Taft,
LII. D., of Cincinnati, who is reported to
be dying in Los Angeles, Cal, was born
in Vermont, November 5, 1910, and
graduated from Yale in 1888. He was
admitted to the bar in 1888 and settled
in Cincinnati, O., where he quickly won
eminence in his profession. From 1866
to 1872 he was judge of the superior
court of Cincinnati. In March, 1876. he
succeeded William w. Belknap as secre-
tary of war in President Grants cabinet.
and in the following May was transferred
to the attorney generalship. In April.
1882, he was made minister to Austria,
and in 1884 was transferred to St. Peters
burg, serving until August, 1885. He
was man of robust health, but the eli
mate and surroundings of the Russian
capital undermined his constitution,
and on the breaking up of the winter
there he fell ill of pneumonia. From
this attack he never fully recovered, and
the last years of his life have been
passed in travel in a vain attempt to re-
gain his old-time vigor. He was a prom
lnent lawyer, successful cabinet officer
and wise diplomatic representative,
combining with his other distinguished
abilities talent for valuable literary
work. While in Vienna, although more
than 20 years of age, Judge Taft took up
the study of the German language, and
so far mastered it that he could read and
write it successfully and speak it with
much fiuency. He possessed great ami
ability, and was never known to utter a
harsh or unkind word or to indulge in
cutting satire. Yet in the law, in states
manship and in diplomacy he had a
happy faculty of carrying his point. He
both wrote and spoke vigorously and
forcibly, and he commanded attention
by the soundness of his logic without re-
sorting to displays of temper, even under
the most trying circumstances. In his
private life he has been whole-souled,
even-tempered gentleman, genial and
entertaining companion and true
friend. The many honored by per-
sonal acquaintance with Alphonso Taft
will ever hold him in tender memory
