Work for Others.

There are farmers in the northern
and eastern states who work for their
neighbors good deal more than for
themselves. Their own holdings are
small, but they have patent reapers,
binders and threshers that they rent,
together with their own services and
the use of their horses, if necessary,
therefor a fixed sum or a percentage
of the product.

The Nicaragua Canal.

The project Of the Nicaragua canal
has been debated in the u. 5. senate
very vigorously. One thing should be
remembered about that climate, it is
death to almost 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 careless
ness. 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 NAL
ady is very much like the break bone
fever in certain parts of America.
