A Good Investment.

Mr.. John Walter, chief owner of the
London Times, who died on Nov. 3, in
herited prosperous newspaper from
his father and passes it on to his sons.
The first John Walter founded the pa
per in 1888, but it was not he, but his
son who really won its success. The
second John Walter inherited the pa
per In 1910, and kept it until 1S47. At
that time, when the third Walter came
into the property, the famous John De-
lane was it's editor, and the owner had
only limited influence in the political
management Of the paper until Delane
let go. After that Mr.. Walter was the
responsible head of the Times, and as
such had to shoulder the blame and
pocket the loss Of the "Thunderer's" I'M
lucky attack on Parnell. For more than
twenty years he was amember of Par
lament. He built himself a great house
In Berkshire, raised family and lived
to be 76 years old. He was popularity
supposed to draw the comfortable in
come Of $780, zoo a year, free Of income
tax, from the Times. During his Elton
days some Of the boys in his house
started a court of justice for trying
such offenses as did not come within
the ordinary rules and regulations of
school life. Walter was brought before
this tribunal, charged with ''never hav-
ing said a single good thing" The jury
returned a verdict of guilty, but strong
ly recommended the prisoner to mercy
on the ground of natural incapacity.-

Poor IndeedI

The prospect of relief from drastic cathar
tics for persons troubled with constipation
Is poor indeed. True they act upon the
bowels, but this they do with violence, and
their operation tends to weaken the intes-
tines, and is prejudiclal to the stomach. Hos

Furthermore, 1t promotes digestion and a
regular action Of the liver and the kidneys.
1t Is an efficient barrier against and remedy
for malarial complaints and rheumatism,
and is Of great benefit to the weak. nervous
and aged. AS medicinal stimulant it can
not be surpassed. Physicians cordially rec
ommend 1t, and its professional Endorsement
is fully borne out by popular experience.
Appetite and sleep are both improved by
this agreeable invigorant and alternative.

When the farmer throws down corn
aud feeds his hens literally he may Sc
cure but few eggs, as he is then feed
ing for the market aud not for eggs.
A fat hen will not lay, and is as unprof-
liable as fat SOW for breeding. What
the hens mostly need is heterogeneous
matter. for they can. IL fed any grain
at all. easily provide the yolk, lime,
phosphoric acid, etc., but the large
amount of albumen in an egg calls for
more heterogeneous food than Is usually
allowed. Some, improperly, ascribe
the failure to secure eggs to a lack of
green food While some kind OF bulky
food (such as clover hay chopped fine
and scalded, as well as cooked potatoes
and turnips) is excellent yet the de-
sideratum is animal food, and II less
grain be fed, and more meat, either
raw or cooked there will be more eggs.
Milk and curds are also suitable, but
meat is better than anything else. AS
a pound of meat daily will be sufficient
for a dozen hens, and almost any kind
of meat will do, the expense Is small
matter, compared to the high prices OBJ
tanned for eggs In winter. 1t Is not
necessary to feed grain more than once
n day. A morning meal Of scalded,
chopped hay, with some kind of animal
food and wheat at night, will give more
eggs, If the hen house is kept warm,
than any other method, and it will be
cheaper than feeding three times day
on grain. A pan of warm water in the
morning should always be allowed

The Nicaragua Canal.

The project of the Nicaragua Canal has
been debated in the u. ). Senate very
vigorously. One thing should be remem-
bered about that climate, it is death to al
most every foreigner who goes there, and
laborers especially succumb. 1t is said
that the Panama Railroad cost life for
every tie. What an idea of pains and
aches is in this sentence. 1t is mostly due
to carelessness. Every laborer provided
with st. Jacobs Oil would be armed
against these troubles. Mems muscles
there are cramped with rheumatic pain
and they ache all over. That's just the
condition where this sovereign remedy can
do its best work. The fearful malady is
very much like the break-bone fever in
certain parts of America.

wild Geese By the Thouland Ont in
California.
Near Santa Monica. CAL, one day
last week, In q little bay about SIX
Cquare miles In area, there were fully
a quarter OF q million of wild geese.
The noise OF their quacking and calling
to one another was at times heard two
mues away. At San Pedro and at the
little lake In Kern County there are
said to be even greater numbers of the
game, because Of the proximity Of the
wheat fields.
Large numbers of the geese are slain
annually during their migrations. 1t is
no trick for boy sportsman to get fifty
or sixty Of the birds In few hours,
and hundreds Of the older hunters In
this region have often got over 200
geese In day. A party of four Los An
geles sportsmen who went out for two
days hunt over in the Orange County

there are a score or two of men and
boys who regularly, spring and fab,
turn out for days shoot at wild geese
and ducks, and the person who does not
show that he has tumbled over Mt least
twenty-five Of the birds is accounted In
poor luck, or decided novice in hunt
ing. Many persons will ride to the out
skirts of the town, and, standing in a
buggy or wagon, will satisfy themselves
with shot at the armies Of flying birds
at long range. Occasionally they will
bring down a goose with such random
shooting. All the markets and the
country grocery stores now have wild
geese and ducks exhibited for sale at
nominal sums.-New York Sun.

An Iceboat Going Before the Wind.
An iceboat is never sailed with the
sail free, but with the wind abeam and
the sails trimmed fiat aft The boat
can and does outstrip the wind. This
is the reason: Suppose the wind blow
ing due north, the iceboat sailing due
northeast, then the course Of the boat
will be the hypothenuse 'of right
angled triangle. whereof one side will
be any given distance traversed by the
wind in a given time. The hypothenuse
will be no longer than that side. Now,
the boat holding her course, and the
friction of the runners ON the Ice being
practically nothing, the boat will move
along the hypothenuse In the same
time as the wind moves along the side,
so that the boat will move faster than
the wind. Iceboats have sailed from
60 to 100 miles an hour, with wind of
from 80 to 80 miles an hour.
