Persons who sympathize with the af.
ficted will rejoice with D. E. Carr oil
1885 Harrison street, Kansas City. He
is an old sufferer from infammatory
rheumatism, but has not heretofore been
troubled in this climate. Last winter
he went up into Wisconsin. and in con-
sequence has had another attack. 1T
came upon me again very acute and
severe" he said. "My joints swelled
and became intamed; sore to touch
or almost to look at. Upon the urgent
request of my mother-in-law, tried
Chamberlain Pain Balm to reduce the
swelling and ease the pain, and to my
agreeable surprise. it did both. / have
used three 50.cent bottles and believe it
to be the finest thing for rheumatism,
pains and dwellings extant. For sale by

The gospel meeting at the Blanchard
Fitzgerald music hall yesterday after
noon was we'll attended.
Miss Emma Rider presided at the
piano and Mrs. Mathuss conducted the
meeting.
The principal address was made by
Miss Sarah @. Reese. who took for her
subject the first two verses of the
twelfth chapter of Genesis aud called
especial attention to the last of the
second verse, Thou shalt be blessing"
I'VE may do" the speaker said, "a
great deal of good, even when we are
leading selfish lives, but how much
more We might accomplish for Christ if
we would make our lives wholly unself-
ish. The rich blessings and opportuui--
ties which He surrounds us with so
freely are not for ua alone, but we should
pass them on to Others"
Referring again to the text, Miss
Reese said that the condition God i'm
posed upon Abraham was that he must
get ont from his country and kindred
and from his fathers house, and so must
We leave the comfort and ease and 90
out'into the needy world and do His
will. His will for US ia the sweetest and
most blessed thing in the world and only
when we are ready to accept it will we
fully serve Him.
Miss Reese continued her thought
from the twelfth chapter OF Romans.
She spoke of the living sacrifice God
would have US present 10 Him and de-
clared that 1t was our reasonable service.
There are many ways" she said, Tin
which we can help people by wearing
bright faces and speaking kind words Of
commentator. There are more hungry
hearts in this world than bodies, and
oitentimes just little word would help
to satisfy heart longing. Ii we would
always speak what came into our hearts
to say we would many times cheer the
down-hearted."
Mrs. Brownies words: "From thy
hand and thy heart and thy brave cheer
Gods grace fructify through thee to ALL"
were used in closing.
Mrs. Mathuss then led q short con-
secration meeting and Miss Morse a
short service OF sentence PRAYERS.
Miss Jessie Goodwin aang with great
sweetness.
There had been o special effort made
by aeveral young ladies in the way of in
vitat;ons which will be continued in the
future.
Next Sunday there will be praise
service conducted by Miss Emma Rider,
and the meeting will be held ia the as
ISOLATION rooms at 10Y North Spring.
All are invited to the boating club at
5 O'Clock each Saturday afternoon, it be-
Ing most enjoyable.

THE COW DISEASE.
Senator Rickey's Idea Of the
Cause.

The COWS at Cohn's ranch have
been dying very rapidly of late and
nearly 100 have succumbed to some
mysterious disease.
Senator Hickey who is a very ex-
perienced cattle man was yesterday
interviewed on the subject.
Il have not seen the cattle, but
from what / can learn of the matter
| should think that the trouble is
leeches. lost q lot about seven
years ago the same way. Like
COINS cattle they were feeding on
low. marshy ground and swallowed
leeches in the water.
AT this time of the year there are
many stagnant pools in the marshes
and tules where there are leeches by
the thousands and the cattle take
them up In the water. They fasten
on the stomach and get into the blad-
der and the animal passes blood in
the urine and soon dies. AS soon as
1 drove my cattle to dry ground there
was no more trouble. | don't think
there has been any contagious disease
there and nothing like Texas fever.
| only reach the conclusion do from
what can hear about the cattle; l
have not seen any of those affected.
| think if the dead animals were
cut open they would find that leeches
have caused all the trouble"

ILLINOIS TOWN IN SPRING.
building the best roads they can in the
face of difficulties which to us would be
appalling? The poor Swiss have built
roads through gorges and around preci-
pieces which would seem impossible,
and which must have cost over 81, 000,-
600 per mile.
These nations are all eminently prac-
teal. They have not gone into the
business so extensively simply for the
purpose of identifying the land. That
is very subordinate one. 1t is ques-
ton of hard cash. 1t is estimated in
England that in the mere saving in
cost by reducing their roads to such
condition that three horses can do the
work of four there has been an econ
omy of 500, 600, 900 effected annually.
But the roads are not entirely at
fault In some parts of the country
they have been nicely graded only to
be rapidly destroyed by the narrow
tired wagons heavily laden. The move
ment in favor of wide tires for draught
vehicles peeds to be. encouraged. Re
peated experiments have proved that
wheels with tires ~ inches wide cause
double the wear of wheels which have
Al inch tires. The wide tire has ten
dency to roll the roadbed and keep it
smooth at the same time, while the
narrow one cuts it up and requires
more hauling force for the same weight
of load, besides spelling the thorough
fare. Most of the European countries
have laws regulating this matter.
In France the market wagons have
tires from three to ten inches in width,
usually four to six inches, and the rear
axle is the longest, SO that the hind
wheels run on a line outside of the fore
wheels, the vehicle being thus road
maker instead of road-destroyer In
England it has not been found profit
able to increase the width much beyond
four and half inches, except in cases
of wagons without springs where they
are sometimes made as wide as six
inches. 1t is essential that some action
be taken, for narrow tires will soon
ruin the best road ever made.-N Y.

The Lawyer Didn't rangle Him.

The satisfaction that everyone must
feel at the triumph of the boy, about
whom the Massachusetts Ploughman
tells this anecdote, is due to the same
feeling that prompts a big-hearted man
to take the part of the ''undermost
dog" Walter was the important wit
ness. and one of the lawyers, after
cross-questioning him severely, said;
Your father has been talking to
you, and telling you how to testify,
hasn't hep
"Yes, said the boy
Now" said the lawyer, just tell us
how your father told you to testify
We'll" said the boy, modestiy,
father told me that the lawyers
would try to tangle me, but if / would
just be careful and tell the truth,
could tell the same thing every time. !"
The lawyer didn't try to tangle up
that boy any more.

ROAD CONSTRUCTION.
The Subject Discussed by an Influential
Missouri Journal.

~~NSNN+~~~-
Missouri Journal.
The road question in the different
states continues to excite a good deal
of attention, and has given rise to much
discussion concerning the best way to
carry forward the Improvement In
some states which have taken charge
of the building and keeping in order of
the public roads, there has been some
controversy about the policy of employ
ing convict labor for the work. 1t is
reported that the experiment in New
York state has been success. The
largest item of cost there has been the
expense of guarding the prisoners, and
recapturing those who escape. 1t has
been troublesome and costly to main
tain camps, kitchens and supplies. The
answer is that it costs a good deal of
money anyhow to keep the convicts in
idleness within the penitentiary walls,
and that the difference between that
cost and the expense of putting them
in camps on the roads is more than
counterbalanced by the improved con-
dition of the men and their exemption
from sickness and hospital charges.
They must be cared for and supported;
they cannot be allowed to come in com
petition with artisans and skilled work
men in factories and laboratories, aad
altogether it is perhaps about the best
use that can be made of Iem to put
them at work on the public roads.
We do not think the convict side OF
the question will cut any figure in this
state. When the legislature meets next
winter, public opinion will have been
pretty well settled as to the best plan
of carrying forward the public road
improvement. The matter has been
thoroughly discussed by the country
press, and the principal point already
gained is that a thorough system of
road building must be undertaken in
every part of the state. If there is to
be any state legislation in regard to
the matter, it can be easily obtained
Many of the counties are already fore
handed in the work, and feel able to
carry forward all that may be neces-
sary. There is willingness on the
part of the people TO be taxed for the
improvement and, no doubt. many Of
the counties will issue and sell bonds
TO raise the necessary money. 1t is, "a
together, about one Of the best move
rncnts for the development of the state
that has been inauguratsd for many

picture. If you look closely you viii
discover the Mexican dollar, and also
a Kings Daughters badge which some
one presented to him.
Owney did not tarry long in Wash
ington, but was soon off again with
his new harness. The farther he
went the more checks he had to carry,
and the heavier grew his load At
last the attachments alone weighed
over two pounds, and poor Owney was
tired of carrying the dangling things
about with him.
A Boston postal clerk saw him and
took pity on him as Mr.. Wanamaker
had done: he carried him home to his
house, and wrote Letter to the post
master at Albany, telling him of the
dogs difficulties. Word came back to
take off the harness just as it was, and
forward it to them. This was done,
and the harness with its attachments
can be seen at any time in the post
office building at Albany, preserved in
a glass case with owney's picture.

mail-bags to the post office, he was
taken possession of and locked up,
while letter was sent to Albany tell
ing the officials there of his where
abouts. A reply came TO let him go
and he would take care of himself.
This the Canadian postmaster refused
to do till the cost of feeding and keep
ing him was paid, in all amounting to
two dollars and fifty cents. A collec-
ton was called for among his old
friends, the money forwarded and 0w-
ney released.

haps the next time he visits Canada

T-he ronscIentIona Farmer.

When / was a young man, said
Horatio Seymour. there lived in our
neighborhood a farmer who was re-
ported To be very liberal man, and
uncommonly upright in his dealings.
When he had any of the produce Of his
farm TO dispose of, he made IL an in
variable rule to give good measure
rather more than would be required Of
him. One Of his friends, observing him
frequently doing so, questioned him as
TO why he did it. He told him he gave
too much. and said il was to his disad-
vantage. Now mark the answer Of
this excellent man:
God has permitted me but one
journey through the world, and when
am gone / cannot return to rectify
mistakes"
The old tanners mistakes were Of
the sort he did not want to rectify.

BIRDS EYES AND EARS.
They Tar Exceed in Keenness Those OF
Our Own Kind.

They Far Exceed in Keenness Those or
Our Own Kind.
1t is certain that the keenness of vi
SION in birds far exceeds our own, but
in what degree we cannot precisely es-
innate. We know, however, that a
hawk so high above the earth as to
seem mere speclS against the sky
above him can az this distance distin-
guish his prey from its earthly sur
roundings.
Snipe and plover, migrating at so
great height that to MS they are in
visible, seem by their calls able to
recognize individuals of their own
species feeding, perhaps on some mud
fiat, where, if they are motionless, we
can distinguish them at fifty yards
with difficulty.
Flycatchers launch forth after
gauzy-winged prey we could not detect,
and have seen jacamars in the gloomy
forests dart more than thirty feet into
the air after some tiny insect.
The loggerhead shrike of the south
always selects, like a hawk, a perch
from which he may have an unob-
structed view of his surroundings.
From this outlook he scans the ground
for some luckless grasshopper or
cricket. and sometimes flies eighty or
one hundred feet to pick from the
grass-grown ground an insect he had
evidently seen before he left his perch.
But little as we know of birds vi
sion, we know even less Of their power
of hearing There is, however, no
quite as acute as the former.
The robin on our lawns may be seen,
with head on one side. listening in
tently for the movement of a worm be-
meath the sod, and it is said the wood
cock has the same habit. On one oc-
casion, while seated quietly in the
woods, a barrel-owl lit about fifty
yards away, with his back toward lne.
Watching him through my feld-glass,
] made the slightest possible sound
with my lips-a man would not have
heard it at distance of twenty feet
and instantly the bird turned its head
and the great black eyes looked direct
~ at me.
A friend of mine in South Carolina
tells me that mocking bird which
was resident in his garden at the time
of the earthquake few years ago be-
came sentinel to his family, warning
them by sharp, twittering note, of
the approach of each shock several sec
onds before che rumble which preceded
it was audible TO human ears.
Instances of this kind give us some
idea Of the acuteness of birds hear
ing, but as yet we have no observa-
tions suitable for the purpose Of exact
eompaTison.-FraRk u. Chapman, in

IMPROVEMENT.
TO PRESERVE ROADS.

Wagon Manufacturers Must Cooperate
with Road Builders.
The subject of good roads is one of
great interest to the community in
general and to farmers in particular
Good roads enable the farmer to mar
ket his produce at all times in the year
and secure his supplies at less expense
for hauling, with less wear and tear to
vehicles and injury to animals, besides
which they result in bringing together
more closely the members of the agri-
cultural community, and thereby in
crease the social intercourse of farmers.
Of course. the building of good roads
is expensive work, but it pays. If it
did not would we find England, France,
Germany, Switzerland, Norway, Swe5.
