A VETERANS VERDICT.
dier, Correspondent and Journal
ist Makes a Disclosure.

Indiana contributed her thousands of brave
soldiers to the war, and no state bears a bet
ter record in that respect than it does. In
literature it is rapidly acquiring an
enviable place. In war and literature
Solomon Jewell, well known as a writer as
Sol has won an honorable position Dur
ing the late war he was member Of Co. NJ
I'd. n. Y. Cavalry and of the 18th Indiana In
fantry Volunteers. Regarding an important
circumstance he writes as follows:
several of us old veterans here are using
DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine. Heart Cure
and Nerve and Liver Pills. all of them giving
splendid satisfaction. In fact, we have never
used remedies that compare with them. OF
the Pills we must say they are the best COM
bination of the qualities required in a prep
aration Of their nature we have ever known.
We have none but words of praise for them.
They are the outgrowth Of new principle in
medicine, and tone up the system wonder,
fully. We say to all, try these remedies"
Solomon Yewell Marion, Ind. Dec. 5, 1892.
These remedies are sold by all druggists on
positive guarantee, or sent direct by the

ceipt of price, 81 per bottle, six bottles S., ex-
press prepaid. They positively contain neither

AIR DOES NOT KILL.
The Wind Preceding a Shot Found to Be
Harmless.

The Wind Preceding a Shot Found to Be
Harmless.
The old belief that proiectiles some
times kill men in battle without hitting
them must be abandoned in view of re-
cent scientific experiments. 1t was for
merly supposed that the air compressed
and driven before the projectile, and
technically called 1.-The wind Of the
shot," was capable of striking a fatal
blow, and even army surgeons have as
sented to this theory.
But, says Youths Companion, ex-
periments have shown that the air
driven by projectile, while capable of
being instantaneously photographed in
the form of a wave, does not possess
sufficient energy to produce any de-
structive effect
Another theory which recent investi-
cations have overturned is that the ex-
plosive effect sometimes exhibited by
bullets is due to compressed air driven
into the wound.
Experience shows that the appear
ance of explosion arises from the ma
ture of the substance penetrated by the
bullet. If this substance is plastic or
watery, the impulse of the projectile is
distributed laterally in all directions
among it's particles, and they are driven
asunder.
Such an effect has been noticed IN
battle when bullets have entered the
brain, and accusations of using explo-
sive projectiles, contrary to the comfy
of nations, have been based upon them.
By firing bullets into wet dough, every
indication of an explosion has been pro-
duced, although the same bullets, fired
with identical velocity, into solid sub
ST., ces like bone, made only round,
clean-cut holes.

SUMATRA TOBACCO.
Some of the Difficulties Against Which
Growers of the Weed Contend.

Some of the Difficulties Against Which
Growers of the Weed Contend.
Only the strongest and most ex
perienced coolies can properly cultivate
an acre and quarter, and even with
them the last third of the field is much
inferior to the rest Besides, says Good
Words, tobacco is attacked by several
insect enemies, and particularly by
small green caterpillars and large
grasshoppers. In tobacco intended for
filling" or manufacture, few holes
on the leaf are of less consequence, but
wrappers, to be of any use, must be
without flaw, and the worms" un-
less carefully hand-picl1cd will reduce
the profits to very small margin.
Another popularity is that if the to-
bacco is flooded, even to the depth of
an inch, it instantly perishes, and a
large part of the expenses of an estate
consists of an elaborate system of
''parits," or drains, to carry off storm
water-a difficult thing to do in the
level coast districts. At length the
leaves of first-planted trees" begin to
wrinkle and show yellow spots, and
now the peculiar labor system comes
into action. Each afternoon the coolie
cuts his ripened tobacco and carries it
to the ''bangsul," or drying shed, of
which there is one to every ten fields.

A Sin ruSar Adventure.

The pupils of the Polytechnic school
in Paris are, like our naval and army
cadets at Annapolis and West Point, re-
nowned for their learning and disci-
pine; but also, like our own cadets, oc-
casionally they become FESTIVE and
break bounds Recently some of the
pupils met with a singular adventure.
They were sentenced to remain within
the school limits for some misdemeanor,
and of course were then more eager to
get outside. One of their number hit
upon the idea of escaping by way of
subterranean trap-door which led into
the sewers The foolish boys eagerly
followed their leader, thinking it a good
joke; but, to their terror, they soon lost
their way, and for two DAYS and nights
wandered through labyrinth, without
eating, drinking or sleeping. Fortu-
nately at the end of that time, they
met some scavengers and were rescued.
The school authorities concluded that
the truants had been punished enough,
and the pupils agreed with them

Lack Of Organized Force.

Congressman Halner, of Nebraska,
IN very pertinent speech before the
National Dairy union, at Washing
ton, said that he had learned one
thing in congress, and that was that
there was almost total lack of
organization among the dairymen of
the United States in favor of laws
against adulteration of dairy
products. What a comment that is
upon the citizenship Of dairymen
Ask any man among them if he is in
favor OF such laws and he will 7nswer
yes. Ask him if he has done anything
practical to impress his opinion on
the law makers, whether in congress
or his own state, and not one in a
thousand will answer yes.
No wonder that Bynum, Of Indiana,
and host Of other congressman will
fighT the circuit bill or any other bill'
that lnterferes with their friends, the
Oleo combine. 1t is because the oleo
combine is organized and the dairy
men are not. 1t is because the cleo
men will spend thousands upon
thousands of dollars to destroy the
dairy interest, while the dairymen
stand Indifferent. The cleo men are
practical; the dairymen are i'm
practical. The cleo men hire lobby
lists by the score to block the progress
Of all legislation against them. Will
the dairymen pay the small sum of
one dollar to bel p the National Dairy
union? 1t seems to us that not to
do this is unwise and unpa5riotic.
c.,
every dairyman to make himself eff
fective:
/. He should write postal card to
his member of congress and to the
senator's OF his state, asking them to
support the circuit bill. Ask them to
defend you against a fraud and coun-
terfeit.
2. Also write a postal card to
your member OF the state assembly
and senate calling for state laws
against this fraud. 1t is the number
| of atoms in this postal card snow
storm that will tell. Every farmer
can add to it's weight. Don't fail to
do it.
3. Send the sum of one dollar to
the National Dairy union to help
make up the sinews of war in this
| fight. Do this all over the land and
the butter counterfeiters will hear
something drop inside the next ninety
days. If you wish, send your contri-
button to Hoard's Dairyman, Fort
Atkinson, Wis, and they will &C.

of these things and thus organize

BIRTH OF THE KING OF ROME
The Excitement In Paris Over That Mo-
mentous Event.

The Excitement In Paris Over That Mo-
mentous Event.
March came in that eventful year of
1911; and when the morning of the
Goth dawned all Paris was in the streets.
For like wildfre spread the rumor;
there is baby at the Tuileries! Every
hour the crowd grew denser. At open
windows, along the streets, in the great
garden of the Tuileries, people waited
expectant, listening for the voice of the
cannons of the Invalid soldiers home
to tell whether the baby was boy or a
girl. OF course everyone hoped it was a
boy, for that meant an heir to the throne
of France-their future emperor.
At the first boom, says ST. Nicholas,
a mighty silence fell upon the listening
city. Every one stopped, intent, anx-
ious. One-two-three, they counted.
Boom, boom! went the guns up to nine
teen = twenty - twenty-one. The ST.
lence was intense, the anxiety pro-
found. Twenty-Five! There came a
mighty cheer, roar from thousands
and thousands of threats. Hats were
flung aloft; people cried with joy, and
danced and Rugged each other, and
cared no more to count, though the
guns doomed away until the full salute
of one hundred ard one was fired For
that twenty-second boom told the story
the baby at the Tuileries was boy.
Then, out of the cheering, came a
mighty shout: Long live the emperor!
Long live the empress! Long live the
king of Romer For that was to be the
title of this baby prince, whose mother
was an empress, whose father was
greater than q king

If you are not feeling strong and heal

liver, stomach and kidneys, gently aiding
those organs to perform their functions.

lief by taking Electric Bitters. One trial
will convince you that this is the remedy
