Mrs. Homer A. Nelson, one of the
leading society, ladies of New York do
clares that the use of opiates is moro
widespread than is generally imagined,
and that among the better classes IL ID
rapidly gaining ground. She made
this statement before the Woman's
Christian Temperance union of New
York. She declared that 1t was q com
mon practice for well-to-do ladies' Ia
drive up to drug store, send in for .
four-ounce vial of laudanum, get it,
and drive away, and she added that
women used .opiates as men do liquor.
This ought to be warning against thu
lavish use of opiates in medicine. Most
of the cough remedies of to-day ara
largely composed of opiates. Rcid's
German Cough and Kidney Cure is the
only cough medicine in the market
that contains neither opiates nor mar
cotics and whose use can be persisted

That man or woman is blessed with

that the offender is kindly reminded
OF his shortcoming, while at the same
time their. oYr.aiaSi american history
will illustrate our meaning:
1t was during the war OF the Revo-

British armies were contending in
Pennsylvania, that General Washing.
ton was in the neighborhood OF Mari
eta, Lancaster County. General Lee,
with two or three aids-de-camp, rode
in advance, and, stopping at @ way
side inn, informed the landlord that
General Washington and his staff Off
GERS would quarter at his house for
the night.
This news, OF course, caused great
confusion among the inmates OF the
establishment. They wanted to do
honor to the beloved commander, and
hustled about to have all things IN
readiness upon his arrival.

Cold Wave Coming.

The weather reports from all extreme sta
lions announce the early advent OF severe cold
waves which will, for protracted period, give
our region a taste of the frigid zone
This is not unusual In this latitude and at
this time of the year. In anticipation OF this
fact, thousands of people are completing ar
rangements to spend the winter In the South.
For all such persons, the question OF choos-
ing route is of great moment.
OF all south-bound roads, the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois Railroad offers the best ad-
vantages to the traveller. 1t is the shortest
line from Chicago to Florida and Gulf Coast
resorts Its trains reach destination six hours
In advance of any other line 1t has perfect
passenger service. Its equipment Is unsur-
passed.
Its popular fast train, the "Chicago and
Nashville Limited" connects with all through
trains from the West and Northwest, is vesti-
buled from end to end, Is heated by steam and
lighted by gas, is composed OF Pullman sleep
ers, Pullman Ladies and Day coaches, and a
superb dining car, dispensing a cuisine the
better Of which is not found In America.

ohio wnea, Experlment..

Tho Ohio agricultural experiment
Station has for several years been in.
vestigating such problems in wheat
culture as the quantity OF seed per
acre, the depth OF seeding, drilling
versus broad-casting, the mixing oil
different varieties, cross drilling and
the use of the roller press. The
average results favor sowing at the
rate OF five or seven pecks per acre Of
thoroughly cleaned seed, and covering
it not to exceed two inches deep. In
favorable seasons broadcast seeding
has produced about as largeSa crop
as drilling; but If the seeding season
be hot and dry, drilling is likely to
give better results. No advantage
has been discovered in the mixing Of
different varieties. There has been a
slight increase ofcrop where the wheat
was cross drilled, the same quantity
OF seed being used in each case. This
increase may be partly due to the
more thorough pulverization OF the
soil in the double drilling. The roller
press--a wheel following each hoe Of
the drill-has not increased the yield
sufficiently to warrant it's use.
