Three OF the officers of the Circle
are ladies /. e. president, vice presi-
dent, and treasurer besides those ap-
pointed on the standing committees,
and they perform their duties as ably
and often more conscientiously than
the gentlemen. While but few of
the gentlemen in this society are
advocates of what some people are
pleased to call "woman's rights" it
Is pleasant to note that they neverthe-
less appreciate the true worth of
women.

Delvis had threshed the day previous

WHAT CAUSES SICKNESS
AND HOW IT CAN
BE CURED,
Where IS the real cause or origin of all
sickness of the internal or.ans2

Where IS the real cause or origin of all
sickness OF the internal organs?
In the sympathetic nerves.
What is the best and quickest way Of
cure?
To cure the cause: that is, the sympathetic
nerves.
What are the sympathetic nerves?
They are set of nerves running down
the back, outside the spinal column, not
controlled by the brain, but controlling di-
recily the working of the stomach, liver,
kidneys, and all the principal internal
organs.
The nerves We hear talk about, are the
brain nerves, not the sympathetic nerves.
We know about them because they are on
the surface; they move our arms, legs, neck,
etc.
Before DR.. Shoop began to study them,
but little attention has been paid 10 these
nerves.
DR.. Shops successful cures have brought
them into notice.
II you had tried doctors and their sym p
tom curing drugs for long time without
ever getting AIRED. and then tried DIR.
Shoop'e way of curing the canse, and got
well, pou would believe in his way, wouldn't
you?
Well, people are doing this every day.
DR.. Shops Restorative will cure the capse
of sickness, and this means that it cures
certainly and cures to stay cured.
1t does this because dyspepsia, liver com
plant, kidney disease, heart disease, etc.
all have the same cauSe-the improper
working of the sympathetic norves.
BY curing the sympathetic nerves. DR..
Shops Retorative kills the disease.
1t restores to the sympathetic nerves, tone
and strength, which may have been lost from
thousand different causes.
1t builds them up with fresh life and vigor
and makes them work with renewed ease
and comfort.

AMONG FARMERS.

The state weekly crop report will be
discontinued after this week. 1t reports
excessive heat during the early part OF
last week throughout the stnte and cool
weather during the last part Streams
and wells are low. Corn is all in shock,
Rye sown early has been almost ruined
by the heat. Hot winds have prevailed
everywhere throughout the state and
have damaged pastures considerably.
Big yields are the subject of CONVEX
sation among farmers this year. Tom
Walsh Of Newton went up IN the thous.
ends with a crop of oats; but Jim Ryan
OF Meeme distanced him by raising $50
bushels of oats on ten acres.
Fall plow1ug has already begun. The
rain Of Sunday morning greatly facilitates
the work.
ThreshIng is not yet concluded in this
county though 1t Is nearing Its close.

THERE is rumor, the truth of which
cannot be verified, that the contract for
the building OF the new railway has been
let. There is nothing official known in
this city yet, and 1t Is probable the rumor
is unreliable. Indications are that If the
contract has not been let 1t will be soon,
though it Is doubtful whether any work
will be done this fall except within the
city limits.

innovation in Ambulance Cars.

An important test, with view to
mitigating the sufferings Of those who
are unfortunate enough to be the tenn
porary occupants of the ambulance
wagon, is now in progress. The jolt
ing and noise of the wheels as the car
is dragged rapidly over Thorough pave
ment OF city streets often inhict the
cruelest torture on the patient who
may be,already enfeebled BY disease or
bodily injury. Two rubber-tired am-
balances, one equipped with solid and
the other with pneumatic tires, are be-
ing experimental with. When sup
piled with rubber -shod wheels the
wagons, which usually have to be made
very heavy for the sake of greater sta
bllity and consequent reduction of vi
bration, may be lightened OF least 400
pounds. This lessons the load for the
horses and diminishes the cost of con-
struction. So far it is found that from
the great weight of the ambulance the
pneumatic tiles collapse very often,
and the severe strain tears the solid
tires from the wheels, but it is certain
that the use of rubber in some form
will eventually be adopted.-New York
Advertiser.

INTERIOR OF THE TRAVELLING CATHEDRAL CAR.

spars and wide-spreading yards is
thrown to the wind there will be an
exposed area of 10000 square yards.
Mr.. Flint will fly the Stars and Stripes
from the maintopmast-head OF the
great vessel.
Her measurements is 1923 tons. Her
masts tower 1S4 feet from the keel, and
the great fore, main and jack cross
yards are ninety-fve feet long. The
four great masts and spreading yards
are all of steel. The bowsprit and Jlb-
boom extend out forty feet; the royal
yard is ffty-six feet; the topgallant
yard is sixty-five feet, and the upper
topsail yard eighty-fve feet. The
spanker boom is fifty six feet in length.
Approaching the Persian Monarch in
size the French bark Franco is 1924
tons, the British ship Liverpool is
1880 tons, and the handsome clipper

and Roanoke are 3400 tons each. A
peculiar feature about the Monarch is
that her straight steamer bow remains
unchanged. In this she will be o

Giant Among Sailing Ships.

When the Wilson Line steamship
Persian Monarch ran ashore on Long
Island sandy beach about nine months
ago it was several days before she was
dragged off and hauled to Erie Basin,
where it was found she was badly
stove-in forward. The vessel was a
big IRON steamship, with tremendous
cargo-carrying capacity, but she was
slow.
Her owners, who were willing to
sell, could not get price big enough
to enable them evento pay the wreck
ers' salvage, SO she was putup OF pub
lie auction to pay the latters' claims.
She was purchased "for song" by
Charles r. Flint, who has had the old
craft converted into sailing vessel
The transformation from low, raking
steamer to sailing vessel with sky
scraping masts has been completed.
The Persian Monarch is the largest
sailing ship ahoat. She is ALL feet
