CHOSEN ATTENDING SURGEON.
Ability recognized where best known
and appreciated.

The friends of DR.. Fred Byron Robin
son, formerly of this city, but now of
Chicago, will be pleased to learn that
he has been appointed attending
Surgeon to the Woman's Hospital of
Chicago. This hospital, for the treat
ment of women, was mainly founded
by the late Prof. Byford whose death
occurred a short time ago, created a
vacancy which had not been filled and
DR.. Robinson was appointed to fill it.
The appointment was conferred on
him for his original and scientific work
and invaluable investigation in female
diseases. The DR.. may well feel pleased
over the appointment as it is a fatter-
ing compliment to him as physician
as well as a valuable position financially
DR.. Robinson is now attending physi-
clan to three hospitals for the treat
ment of women and Prof. of female
diseases in a medical college. From
this it would appear that medical men
of Chicago are honoring him with
recognition. The friends of DR.. Robin
son observe that he regards the ap-
pointment to the womans hospital as
the most gratifying and valuable OF
positions in the medical fraternity.

A Pleasant Trip to The Twin Cities 80
CentraIia and Grand Rapids.

Last Friday morning THE TINES man
visited our sister cities on the old Wis
conse, Centralia and Grand Rapids We
were accompanied by our better half
and three other ladies who wished to
have day out, enjoying the beauties of
early hour over the popular new rail-
way, the p e., G.. q N, which runs
| through a portion of Wood County
where the pine once stood in all its
grandeur, but is now fast being convert
| ed into lumber, bolts, slaves and furni-
ture. The ride was delightful one the
morning being cool and pleasant. The
day was pleasantly past in visiting places
of interest in the two cities and viewing
the rapids. Through the kindness of
Bro. Fontaine of the Wood County
Reporter, our party was taken in car
riages and shown the elegant residences
on equality Hill," the driving park,
court house, city hall, the large new
brewery, (erected by Scheibe & Stahl,
which was formerly dedicated last Sun
day. the furniture factories, pulp and
paper mills, etc. The pulp and paper
mill at South Centralia, owned and op-
Grated by The South Centralia Pulp and
Paper Co., capital stock, 100000, and
daily capacity, ten tons of paper, is in
deed concern we'll worth ones time to
visit The mills are now turning out a
very superior quality of pure white
| print, as fine in texture and as white as
| the product of any mill in the west It
| is a sight to start in the mill where the
| logs enter it and proceed TO the point
where the paper is wound into large
rolls, ready to be placed on the great
power presses of the big daily papers.
To give a slight idea of how soon tree
| can be converted into a newspaper, we
quote Mr.. Singerly, of the Philadelphia
Record, who says that it requires one
and a half cords of wood to print his
edition, and gives the time from tree to
newspaper as follows: "Chopping one
| and a half cords of popular wood, strip
ping and loading ON boat, three hours;
time consumed lit manufacturing of
wood pulp, twelve hours; manufacture
ing the wood pulp into paper, five
hours; transporting to Record office,
one hour and twenty minutes; wetting
paper preparatory to printing, thirty
minutes; printing 10000 Records, ten
minutes. Total time from tree to paper
| twenty-five hours"
Our return trip was made in due time
and on being again safely landed in
Marshtield, our party passed a resolu-
ton of thanks to Bro. Fontaine, ex-
pressing our gratitude to him for his
kindness in making our visit to the twin
cities so pleasant Marshfeld Times.

FAMILY REUNION.

1t has been the costum for the men,
bers of the Boies family to hold re-
unions annually at which time all
members would congregate for social
good time. This year they meet with
Mrs. M. c. Woodwork who is now
entertaining them. The family now
consists of Mrs. j. Porter, of Portage
City, Wis, Mrs. John Palmer, of Poy-
nette, Wis, Mr.. j. l. Boies and daugh-
ter Lutte, of Rantone, Illinois. On these
OCCASIONS they talk over the experiences
of the past and plan for the next
annual reunion. They make the most
of these opportunities and form family
ties that endear them to each other
more and more. The combined ages
of the four foot up to 2S4 years. An
average of II years each. We hope
they may all be spared for many more
like reunions.

INTEN Sc PAIN
-FROM-
DYSPEPSIA.

Septicide has proven itself to be of
untold value in relieving a distressing
stomach trouble with which have been
afflicted for years. My complaint was
pronounced Preventative and Catarrh-
al Dyspepsia, which gave me intense
pain and suffering after eating, even
when | ate sparlngly and cautiously. l
was urged by friends to try Septicide,
which did reluctantly, because I had
tried so many remedies which proved
worthless in my case. From the COM
mencement | experienced the happiest
results from taking the Septicide, and
have found it to be all that they claim
for it. From my own experience in the
use of this remedy and from the excel
lent success which | know others have
had with it IN the treatment of various
complaints, | look upon Septicide as
one of the best household remedies in
the market to day. H. C. BARNARD,

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

BULLETIN No. 16.
A continuation of heat during the
past week, with occasional showers in
the north part of the state, is bringing
forward corn, potatoes and tobacco, and
they are rapidly making up for the
backward condition of spring. 1t
would have been better if showers had
been more numerous in the southern
half of the state, but on the whole the
weather conditions have been nearly
perfect for the farmer. The great stor-
age Of moisture during May and June
can now be utilized by frequent culti-
vation with great advantage to the
growing crops.
Fine haying weather has prevailed
and the greater part of a large crop is
now secured, after having been proper
" cured by abundant sunshine.
Some damage is reported from rust,
but it is not thought to be serious, and
winter and spring wheat, rye and bar
ley and oats promise well. Harvest in
wheat, rye and barley is just beginning.
Early potatoes are being dug, and are
of good quality To-day the potato
crop promises well.
Tobacco is growing rapidly, has an ex-
cellent stand, and gives promise of good
leaf development.
Marsh hay in most places is not yet
ready to cut.
The average amount of rain which
should fall during the past week is
about 90 of an inch

in the history of the road has there
been as many permanent improve
ments made, never have railroad
trains, both passenger and freight
been greater or afforded more accom-
modations to the public. 1t is proba
bly, that in some matters of local ac-
commodations Superintendent Fol-
som has not been able undet B & M

ers along his division as he formerly
did, but there is no serious complaint.

NEW STATES.

/ Among the ''reforms" that the vic
torious Democrats purpose to execute
is numbered the admission of half
dozen new states whose Democracy is
unquestioned. This would insure to
the Democrats the control of the Unit
ed States senate. The contemplated
increase in the number of states takes
two forms-one the admission of Utah,
New Mexico, and Arizona, and the
other the dividing up of Texas into
four Or five new states, each with it's
two senators.
Either of these two plans would give
the Democrats at least temporary
lease of power in the upper house Of
congress. To the victors belongs the
spoils, and there is no legal obstacle
to the Democratic plan for enrfching
the plumber. That Utah, New Mexico,
and Arizona are VIGOROUSLY unfit for
statehood is no bar to their elevation
when viewed from Democratic
standpoint, and the sub division of
Texas requires only the consent of the
state itself. Therefore the admission
of new states is not only feasible but
easy. Their admission, however,
would not insure Democratic ascend |
ancy, for the American people cannot I
be tricked and duped forever. Tt would |
need only one such an exhibition
of Democratic abuse of power to
thrust the party back into defeat and /
dishonor. -Iadependent.

There are some encouraging signs
of an increase of popular interest in
the question of forest destruction in
New England. 1t is found that the
extensive cutting Of trees in the White
Mountains has had an effect on the
Merrimac and other rivers, and the
owners of factories dependent on the
water power thus supplied, are natur-
ally greatly concerned. In Western
Massachusetts, too, a good deal of in
dignation is being expended over
the cutting of timber on the side of
Greylock, the fine mountain which
presides over the most picturesque
part of the Berkshire region. The
Greylock Park Association it appears,
is really responsible for this wretched
business, since it sold tract of forest
with full knowledge of the intention
of the purchaser. The members of a
park association ought to nave a truer
appreciation of the Importance of pre-
serving the forests under their care.
Already, it is said, number of the
tributaries of the Hoosac River have
been affected by the devastation fol-
lowing the free use of the woodmans

Edison brought some cholera germs,

He had been unconscious for hours.
Stimulants were administered hypo-

total vote over 1000 less than for

is due to the Australian ballot.
