Collie and Cholera Morbus.

Collie, cholera morbus, cramps and
many other affections of the stomach
and bowels prevalent at this time of
'lfar are due to two causes. First. the
depressing effect of the hot weather on
the nervous system, and second, the
use of green fruit. cucumbers, melons,
etc. No one is safe from painful and
even dangerous attacks of these affec-
tons unless unusual precautions are
taken at this time of year. ~ table,
spoonful Of Pe-ru-na taken before each
meal is not only preventative of collie
cholera morbus. cramps, stomach ache,
summer diarrhea and cholera, but it is
also prompt cure for these diseases.
Where the attack is very severe wine
glass full of Pe-ru-na should be taken
at once, followed by two tablespoonful
doses until relief is obtained. This
never fails in a single case. In cases of
less severity tablespoonful every hour
is sufficient. No one should neglect the
precaution Of taking dose OF Pe-ru-n;.
before each meal until the hot season
is over.

Straw Roads.

The farmers Of the country are be-
ginning to wake up to the fact that
straw is great factor in good roads,
says Stoves and Hardware Reporter.
The discovery of this new idea was
made at Carthage, ILL.,, several years
ago, during the fair of the Hancock
county agricultural board. The wea-
ther had been very dry and by the mid
die of the week the roads leading to
the fair grounds had become nearly
hub-deep in dust, no amount of sprinl1-
ling seeming to have any effect. Finally
us a last resort a number of loads of
straw were scattered along the princi-
pal highways to the fair grounds and
water sprinklers kept going all night.
10 the surprise and qualification of the
good people of that city the plans
proved a success and the dust was
kept laid" during the remaining days
of the fair without difficulty. Now
comes the interesting part of the story.
During the various muddy spells that
have occurred since the plan was util-
lied, it was found that the highways
thus 'strawed" were always in the
best condition. Some wise farmers
down in the southern part of Hancock
county taking note of this have spread
straw over several hundred yards of
very bad roadway in their vicinity, and
it is now stated that this piece Of road
today is the only good road in that part
Of the county. The Bowen Chronicle,
in referring to the matter, says: Straw
makes a road that is not muddy in wet
weather. Don't burn up old hay OF
straw, it is just as easy to have it in
the roads. There is enough straw
wasted each winter to cover tie roads
of the county" This is good sugges-
ton and our farmers would do well to
do little experimenting.

VIEWS OF THE FINANCIERS.
Opinions Expressed by Members of tn
Monetary Conference

Opinions Expressed by Members of the
Monetary Conference.
An important section of the international
monetary conference at Brussels holds that Mr..
De Rothschild's withdrawal Of his plan for a
solution of the silver question does not debar
the further discussion of his proposals by the
conference, the committee to which the plan
was referred having presented it for the con-
sideration of the conference, thus taking it on,
Of the hands of Mr.. De Rothschild
The scheme proposed by c. F. Teitjon. the
Danish delegate, is treated with Indifference.
The proposals advanced by Sir C. Houlds-
worth, though applauded by the pronounced
blmetallist delegates, is not considered by his
colleagues worth wasting time on in discussion.
His plan will probably be referred TO COM
mittee tomorrow and will not be heard from
again.
The uncertain attitude of the French dele
gates is influencing the other representatives
whose countries belong to the Latin union. II
Is the opinion of many old delegates that the
French government does not desire the confer
ence to decide anything.
An interview has been published at Brussels
with III. Leon Say, the wcll-known French
financier. NJ Says remarks define the action
of the French delegates who criticise every
thing that is said in the conference or in COM
The opinions among the delegates have be-
come sharper and more clearly defined, the
partisans of the single and the double standards
proving more irreconcilable as the discussion
develops.
Mr.. Henry W. Cannon, one of the American
delegates and president of the Chase National
Bank, has asked the committee to discuss the
proposals of the American delegates as stated
to the plenary conference.
NJ. Montefiore Levy opposes the committee
proceeding to discuss the American proposals.
He bases his objections on ground that the
committee was appointed to discuss special
question on reference from the conference and
that the American proposals are related to
fundamental principles that would better come
within the competence of the conference.
A majority of the committee concur in the
opinion of President Levy.
MIR. Terrell, the American minister to Bel
GUM, will give banquet in honor of the dele
gates today. The grand municipal reception at
the Hotel de Vile has been fixed for December
16. This will wind up the fetes in honor of the
delegates until after Christmas.

DIR. Smith Closes His Def.ns.

The trial of DIR. H. P. Smith at Cincinnati for
alleged heresy is nearing completion. Prof.
Smith closed his arguments yesterday, present
ing his view of the case and summing up with
the claim that the committee had failed to show
anything in his writing or teaching to justify a
verdict Of guilty.
Rev. DIR. NcKibben, for the prosecution COM
mit,ee, began his final argument. He, with
deep feeling, likened the efforts Of the higher
critics 10 son who insisted against his father g
wishes and arguments to take away the founda-
ton which had supported his house and substi-
tute new kind upon which no house had ever
been built. As the father objected, even so far
as to eject his son from the house, SO the pres
bytery, believing in the frmness Of the founda-
tion OF its faith in the Scriptures, should not
hesitate for the good Of the church to eject any
modern builder who would destroy it.

John H. P. King Of this city, who represented
a number of New York and Chicago capitalists
who had interested themselves in the artificial
rainmaking process for the purpose OF specu-
lation, has returned to Chicago from San An
tonic, where he has been for some time watch
ing the experiments. With reference to the
results Of the experiments he says "From a
scientific point OF view the inventor of the pro-
cess has scored a success from the practical
point OF Wow, however, the invention is a
failure You can produce rain, but not in
sufficient quantities to warrant the investment
of money. The tests made were most
thorough The men interested used $4,000
pounds OF roselite powder, one of the most
powerful explosives; they sent up balloons and
exploded them at distances Of from 1000 feet
to two miles. When clouds were present a
little water would be knocked out Of them, but
1t fell in such small quantities that it does not
look if it could be turned to any practical
value"
