The Reason

For the great gain in our business is
that when parties buy bill of US
they are so well pleased with the
value of their purchases compared
with the amount of money invested
that they give vent to their satisfac-
tion in conversation with others, and
thereby become advertising agents

A New Blower.

Mr.. G. A. Spang. machinist of this
place, while in foundries and machine
shops has heard the cry "give us more
blast" in forge fires and cupalos, and like
all inventors worked on something to right
the wrong and get more pressure of air be-
hind the fire. After months of study and
experimenting he completed pressure
blower for which he was granted Letters
Patent on the 18th of the present month.
The Blower will not only be used in forges
and cupalos but in many other places, such
as blast furnaces, steam heating appara-
tus, shaving exhausters for planning mills,
-four mills, etc. The merits of Mr.. Spang's
machine are that it does not run half as
fast as other blowers now in use and there
fore not requiring more than half the pow
er, and not tearing belts SO fast and at the
same time has greater pressure.
Mr.. Spang first worked on this inven-
ton while he lived in Cleveland and the
great expense in experimenting brought
him back to his old home in this place
where he could experimental at less expense
He has had the Blower patented in this
country, and expects to extend the patent
to foreign countries.

HOW To CURE A COLD.
1t is Simple Enough When You
Know HOW-A Valuable
Remedy.

Chief of Police Prentice who hai
been troubled with severe cold on
the lungs effected his recovery in the
following simple manner: He boiled
little b0neset and hosrhound to-
gether and drank freely of the tea be
fore going to bed. The next day he
took FIVE pills, put one kind Of plaster
| on his breast, another under his arm
and still smother Oh his back. Under
advice from an experienced old lady
be took all these of with an oyster
knife in the afternoon and slapped on
a mustard paste instead. His mother
put some onion drafts on his feet and
gave him lump of tar to swallow.
Then he put some hot bricks to his
feet and went to bed.
Next morning another old lady
came in with a bottle of goose oil and
gave him dose of it on quill, and
an East Seventh street sister came in
with a bundle of sweet fern which
she made into 4 tea and gave him
every half hour until noon when he
took u big dose of salts.
After dinner his wife, who had
seen fine old lady of great expert
ence in doetering on Lamiue street,
gave him two pills of her make about
the size of an English walnut and Of
similar shape, and two teaspoonfuls
of homemad bslsam to keep them
down. Then, at the suggestion of
Dick Olmsted he took a half.pint Of
hot rum and steamed his legs with an
alcohol bath.
At this crisis Loge Anderson and
and Louie Kahrs arrived, who saw at
once that his blood was out Of order
and gave him half a gallon of spear
min, tea and a big dose of castor oil.
Before going to bed he took eight of
new kind of pills, wrapped about
his neck a flannel soaked in hot
vinegar and salt and had feathers
burned on a shovel in his room. He
is now thoroughly cured, full Of graf
itude and delighted with the simple
remedy. He advises his friends to try

HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.
Meet In Regular Ses sion-S0me
Interesting Papers Read
Probability of Securing
the Location Of the
State HOrticul-
tural Board.

Tie Pettis county Horticulture
Society held meeting in the court
house last evening.
A number of papers were read on
the cultivation of various trees and
plants beside q scholarly discussion of
apple destroying insects by Colonel
Sampson.
Mr.. Upton read an excellent article
on the cultivation of strawberries,
which provoked considerable discus
sion among those present.
Several of the members thought
that beds should be plowed after the
first year while Mr.. Upton stated that
the largest crops he ever reaped where
borne by plants five years old. He
was also Of the opinion that in plant
ing the vines they should be set five
feet apart.
Col Van B. Whisker in relating
his horticultural experience proved
that he was rs familiar with
fruit raising as be vas with editorial
work.
He is a strong advocate of the
canning factory and said the loss en-.
tailed by shipments could be easily
saved by the establishment of such an
enterprise. The colonel made . good
speech which was highly appreciated.
The president, Mr.. Lamb, being
called on expressed his regrets at
being unable to perform the duty
assigned him on account of recent
illness in his family.
However, he spoke of the good
tina. had been accomplished by the
society and referred with pride to the
fact that in no small measure was the
attention Pettis was attracting in az
ricultural and Horticultural circles.
due to the influence Of the Organiza-
ton.
Mr.. Monsees read an article on
pear cultivation.
This gentleman is the only farmer
in Pettis county who has undertaken
to raise pears by the acre. He has q
splendid orchard and is resping rich
benefits accruiug from the enterprise
he has displayed. His paper was we'll
written and received good attention
throughout.
Col. Sampson stated that an effort
was being made to secure the location
of the state board of agriculture and
that the prospects seemed very IA
vorable.
Long live the Pettis county Horti-

SEEN IN ST. LOUIS.
Phillips, the Negro who Robbed
Rev. J HI. Wallace,
Heard From.

Reference was made a few days ago
by the BAzoo to robbery perpetrated
at Otterville, in which James H Wal
lace. a colored preacher, lost an over
coat, a watch and $50 in money.
Nothing has been heard Of the thief
since his singular disappearance till
yesterday when the following appeared
in the st. Louis Reptile
"At an early hour yesterday morn
ing Officer John Callahan saw three
negroes acting suspiciously at Fiji
teenth and Locust avenue. When he
approached them they ran of. Du.
ring the chase that followed one of
them dropped an overcoat. Two
shots were fired by the officer. but
without injuring anybody. The
negroes managed to escape. An in
vestigation showed that they had tried
to rob q drunken man, but when
looked for after the chase he could
not be found. In the pocket of the
overcoat was card marked j. H.
Wallace The coat is brown in color,
with a velvet collar and black satin
lining"
Now it 90 happened that the over
coat stolen aside from answering to
the above description, contained q
card bearing this identical name.
Wallace wired to st. Louis but has
received no answer.
He was seen at the union depot this
morning and asserted that he had ex.
pended SIS in kilograms, but was
willing to blow in twice that much if
he could only capture his ungrateful
guest,
