THE sHRlKE OR BUTCHER BIRD.
Tales from Florida Showing It's Great
Skill and Cruelty.

ANO -" OAOoO
Skill and Cruelty.
The shrike bird Is very common
here in Florida, says a letter to the
| Springfield (Mass.) Republican, and
generally known by the name OF butch
er bird. 1t is a most cruel and vindic-
tive bird, and it seems to have the
same traits north or south. Most varie-
ties Of orange trees, especially seed
ling trees, are covered with thOrnS,
often three or four inches long. 1t is
common to find beetles, grasshoppers,
katydids, and the harmless chameleon
impaled on these thorns, and one often
surprises the bird in his cruelties.
| was once taking dinner with a
friend in town. The windows were
open and in the was a canary
bird in its cage. Suddenly a butcher
bird darted in a window and flew
around the bird cage. The poor little
canary seemed fascinated and drawn
to the side of the cage, when the can
nibal thrust it's head in between the
wires and, with a most ~dexterous
twist, took off the head of the canary
and, dropping it on the dining table
near my plate, flew out of the window.
So quickly was it done that, though
seven persons sat at the table, none of
us realized the catastrophe until the
helpless little head fell on the table.
Only a couple of weeks ago l came
across two boys on the road who had
killed a b~lacksnake, some five or six
feet long, which they were stretching
across the road. While standing look
inc at the snake and within q fay- foot
of it, a butcher bird bounced down and
almost as quick as lightning seized and
twisted off the end of the tail and flew
away with some inches of it to orna-
ment sorue thorn IN an orange tree.

OPIUM AND ITS DISCUSSES.
The Drug Sold in Many forms to People
Who Land In the ASYLUM.

The Drug Sold in Many forms to People
Who Land In the Asylum.
One druggist, who kept Il record or
his prescriptions for several years.
assured a New York Herald man that
nearly two thousand out of sixteen
thousand prescriptions he had counted
called for opium. But hat is not all.
When the patent medicines that go to
make up three-fourths of the merchant
able stock of the chemist are gone over
we run across more opium. With few
exceptions, the patented cough balsams
all contain opium. That's why they
are so dear. The more expensive the
preparation the larger the amount of
opium it contains. 1t almost seems as
if they were a cloak under which the
unrestricted sale of opium is carried on
in open violation Of the law.
Many iends carry a doctors pre-
scription calling for half an ounce or
more of opium in their pockets for years
and have it ~replenished as often as they
like. When the paper becomes old and
faded they have it copied by an Oblig-
ing druggists assistant and it lasts for
another year or so Of daily use. They
are the persons who sOoner or later go
to fill up our insane asylums and pri-
vate retreats. If they are poor they
become burdens upon the community.
If they have influential friends they
find a home in some retired retreat
where the hope is kept green that they
have not passed beyond human aid. By
this time they are physical and moral
wrecks, for nothing like opium Will
undermine a noble character and q
strong will.
All this is the perniciOus side Of
opium. Now what good can be said of
it? A great deal. 1t is beyond ques-
ton a valuable drug and no doctor car
afford+o be without it for a moment.
To relieve eXcruciating pain, which Of
itself may kill a person, it has no equal
as a sedative, a sleep producer and a
tonic. If wakeful nights have Slapped
a sufferers vital force until there is
little left nothing like opium will bring
on rest and freedom from pain. There
are many kindred conditions in which
the use of opium is indicated, yes, de-
manded, but rarely has it any other
value in the therapy for the cure of
disease. It is seldom more than a
remedy Of expediency. AS a rule it
DISCUSSES the very symptoms that
enable a thoughtful, competent doctor
to strike at the root of the evil, as he
should, and it is precisely for this rea-
son that it's apparent haphazard use is
SO much to be condemned in medical
practice.

PEOPLE OF MIGHTY MUSCLE.
Men and Women Who Have Lifted Great
weights In Narious Why's.

Weights In Various Ways.
George SOptman. of Philadelphia,
lifted $500 pounds of iron. The mod
ern Hercules raised that enormous
weight, says the Brooklyn Eagle, and.
with his load, took a walk around the
hall where he was exhibiting his pow
ers. Soptman is a giant in muscle and
structure. He stands six feet four and
one-half inches in his stockings. meas
ureS fifty inches round his chest and
weighs two hundred and seventy-three
pounds, scarcely an ounce of which. is
su~periluOus flesh. In 1141. a man liv-
ing in England, called Thomas Top
ham, raised at Derby three casks filled
with water, the total weight of the
three being one thousand eight hum
dred and t~hirty-six pounds. a stage
was erected for him, and on this stage
he accomplished what has long been
considered an unparalleled feat of
strength. Topham lifted, with his
teeth, and held out for a long time a
wooden table six feet long. with a hum
dred weight attached to one extremity.
On II occasion he took a kitchen spit
and bentit around a hostler's aeck like a
handkerchief \ German named Buch-
olz lifted with his teeth a cannon
weighing about two hundred pounds
and fired it off in that position. Nine.
Colbert, who appeared first before the
public at st. BartholOmew's fair, Lon
don,l in 1878, was a strong oma She
carried weights equal to two thousand
and sixteen pounds; lifted with her
teeth a heavy table on which several
persons were seated; supported an
anvil weighing four hundred pounds
on her chest while a blacksmith forged
a horseshoe upon it, and afterward tied
her long hair round the anvil and
swung it about her.

The Great Fruit Belt.

We hear great deal about the great
fruit belts i'm different parts of the
country, but that belt of sandy soil ex
tending westward from Green Bay
across the state is slowly but surely
making reputation for Wisconsin as
fruit growing state, which every citizen
may we'll feel proud Of.
Few people, who are not acquainted
with the facts, will believe that there
are orchards of 1900 bearing apple trees
within 40 miles of the twin cities, but
anyone can see the same by visit to
Waupaca.
Large quantities of small fruits are
also grown in, different places through
out central Wisconsin and there is no
kind Of industry that pays such favor
able returns as fruit growing. What
can be done in Waupaca county can be
done in Wood county as well. Why
not read up on fruit growing and set
out few acres next Spring. Now is
the time to look into tbansubject and
place your orders for treeS Ind plants.
It is we'll to remember that you can
get the best plants and trees of all kinds
Of Purdy & Read, Grand Rapids, Wis.
and 1t will pay you to see them and get
their prices at once.
