The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1894-04-14

There is no man more popular among
the farmers of the country than Hon.
o. NJ. Tinkham, whose likeness is here
given.
A man of acknowledged ability, of
commanding presence. an excellent pre-
siding officer. he will undoubtedly fill
with credit the office to which the farm
ers of his own state wish to elect him.
Ten years an agricultural editor of the
Freeman and Waterman of Montpelier,
VT. secretary and president for several
years each of the Vermont state dairy
mems association, and employed by the
boards of agriculture of Maine, New
Hampshire, Massachusetts and New
York at their meetings, assistant COM
missioner of agricultural affairs, dairy
commissioner at the worlds fair at New
Orleans, member of his state legislature,
where he was chairman of the house
committee on agriculture, and recently
accredited by the secretary of agricul
ture to Europe to study tie labor prob
lem, he is one of the most conspicuous
repres entatives Of the farming interests
of the country.
Some time ago, Mr.. Tinkbam was
Frustrated with neat in the hay field and
from the consequent arrangement of the
system suffered severely from dizziness,
SO much SO that walking was difficult.
He tried the famous Paine's celery COM
pound, which had been SO pub
licly recommended by Mayor Nc

nicality of the law as it has been In
this case, and the law and its interpre.
tation have thrown the personality Of
the criminal into, the background.
Judge Chetlsin was elected to the
bench of the superior court at the last
November judicial election for a term
iof FIVE years, to, fiji the vacancy caused
by the death of Judge Kettelle. He
was born in Galena, ILL.,, in 1850. His
father, Brevet Maj. Gen. August l..
IChetlain, was a figure Of national
prominence. Under President Grants
administration he was appointed
United States consul to Brussels, Bel
Igium. He was also the founder and
first president of the Chicago home
national bank.
Young Chetlain got preliminary
education in the public schools of Ga
lena, and after a two years course in
the University of Wisconsin he re-
.ceived the degree Of bachelor of arts.
He then went to Brussels, Belgium,
and attended the University Libre"
in that city, taking special course in
the natural sciences. After graduating
from this institution he served as a
bearer of dispatches between the Amer
lean consulate of France and Germany
during the proceedings attending the
Franco-Prussian war In January,
1871, he returned to America and went
TO Rockford, HI, where he began the
study of law in the office of william
B. Lathrop,s member of congress. He
was examined before the supreme
court of Illinois June 20, 1878, and adj
nnitted to the bar. He then returned
to his paternal residence in Chicago
and continued the study of law in the
Office Of E. A. Small. In July, 1874, he
opened an Office with Stephen s. Greg
DRY, who is now pleading before his
court as attorney for Prendergast. The
association of Chetlain and Gregory
continued for five years when it was
consolidated with the firm of Tenny d
Flower. This partnership lasted until
1881, when Judge Chetlain was con-
strained to withdraw on account of Ill
health He then travelled year and q
half through the western states and
Mexico to recover his health. In 1883
he returned to Chicago and began IN
independent practice.

others, and the result was most happy.
To quote his own words: ''The dizziness
is all gone, and / am now quite re-
covered"
The success OF his vigorous lectures
upon his European experiences has been
marked. He is now residing at North
Pomfret. VT, and the citizens Of the
state will isely insist upon his going
into politics so far as TO take the lieuten-
ant governorship.
Mr.. Tinkham's experience with the
wonderful remedy that makes people
well and is superior TO all other spring
medicine as milk is more nourishing than
water, is not surprising.
Men and women all over the coun-
try are finding strength and free
dom from disease in Paine's Gel
ery compound. Ii clears the slug
gish blood of the unhealthy humors that
a poor circulation and faulty assimila-
ton tend to produce. 1t corrects un-
healthy nervous action and feeds the

healthy tissues. Prof. Edward T..
Phelps, NJ. d., l.. D., Of Dartmouth
college, discovered the formula for the
famous Paine's celery compound after
loug years of study of the deep changes
that take place in wornout, disordered
nerve tissues DIR. Phelps was accus-

eggs, followed by Germany with 8.
Two are in Holland, while Denmark,
Portugal and Switzerland each possess
1; there are in the United States.
Again, of the es eggs, 90 are in nineteen
museums, while twenty-one private
owners possess 80 eggs among them.
The fact of the great aux having for
merly inhab the British isles has
been one great cause for the steady adj
vance in value of its eggs The earlI-
est record we have Of sale by auction
is in 1858, when two fetched respective
ly s29 and ESQ, which remained about
their value until 1880, when one sold
for goo. In 1880 the price had risen to
11oO, followed in 1887 by 216S and in
1883 by s225.
The egg which was recently sold,
though not nearly such a good speci-
men as that sold in 1883, has an inter
est to all British ornithologists from
having belonged to Yarrell, who pur-
chased it in Boulogne of fisherman
who had been in a whaling ship. He
had two or three swans eggs and this
egg or a string. Yarrell asked if they
were for sale, and was told that the
white eggs were one franc each. and
the spotted one two francs. Unfor-
tunately, we do not know the date of
this transaction. but it was anterior to
1888, for in that year the egg was fig
ured in Hewitson's British Oology."
After Yarrelfs death it was sold at
Stevens auction rooms for f31 (Decem-
Der, 1855, and purchased for the late
Mr.. Frederick Bond. an old friend Of
Yarreli's. 1t remained in this gentle
mans possession until 1878, when il
wa. sold with his unrivaled collection
of British eggs to Baron Louis d'Ha-
knoxville, of Chateau de Mononvile,
who sent it to Mr.. Stevens.
These eggs vary in size, ehape, color
and form of markings In length they
vary from four and one-eighth inches to
five inches; the greater number have
white ground, but others are of various
shades Of buff. The markings are in
some cases spots, in others blotches or
lines; in fact, every form of marking
common to the egge ct the razor-bill
may be found in the existing eggs
of the great aux, which became extinct

traIize these bad humors. The nerves and
nerve centers are starving. Feed them
with the elements that will build them
up again" Paiue's celery compound
embodies these advanced ideas regarding
the blood and nerves.
As was 10 be expected, SO remarkable
a discovery has not failed to attract thu
attention of scientific men all over this
country and Europe. Medical journals
have given Paine's celery compound
much discussion. Paines celery com

one of the best means of counteracting
its deleterious effects Is the influence
of united example,
Therefore, we, members of con-
