A Bslled pu,ssra Shot,

For probably twenty years, at' In
tervals. the press Of the State has con.
tained notices of ''belled buzzard."
Sometimes he would be seen in north
Mississippi, sometimes in south Missis-
sippi. Unless there were more than
one "belled buzzard," however, this
much-wondered-at curiosity is no
longer in evidence. While L. J. Dear,
of Rankin County, was out hunting his
attention was attracted by the tinkl:ng
of small bell, the sound Of which
seemed to come from nowhere in par
ticular. For some time he searched
for the source OF the ringing, and was
finally rewarded by discovering
bnzzard flying over him with a bell
suspended from it's neck. He shot the
bird, and found the bell fastened on
with small leather strap, upon which
was cut the name s'Parks," presume
bly, the surname of individual who
fastened it on the bird. It is to be
regretted that Mr.. "Parks" did not
also engrave his postofice address on
the collar. 1t would be interesting to
know how long the bell has been worn
and how many miles his buzzardship
has travelled since donning his badge
of civilization. Terry Miss. Head

THE BEECH AS A ROADSIDE TREE.

Nurserymen propagate and trans-
plant beech trees in large numbers
without experiencing any great diff
Guilty in making them grow. The
transplanting, however, is usually
done while the trees are small, or
from five to eight feet high, for
larger specimens are rather difficult to
handle, owing to their widespreading
roots. We certainly do not know of
any good reason for the almost general
neglect of the American beech, for it
is surely one of our most beautiful
and graceful trees, and SO hardy that
it thrives even far beyond the limits
OF our territory to the northward.
Small trees found in open woods and
fields may be transplanted by giving
little care TO the preservation CT the
roots, and then severely pruning the
branches before or as soon as planted.
The trees selected for street, roadsides
and parks are mainly the choice of
nurserymen who have q stock of the
quick-growing and cheapest kinds. If
the beech, chestnut, walnut and hick-
ory were planted in the streets and
parks of or cities their nuts, when
ripe and falling, would be great
temptation to the spaall boy and his
sister, ard this would never do in this
age of high moral culture in cities.
We adviS6 you to plant a row of beech
trees, and then enjoy thinking what a
good time the children of the neigh
borhood will have a few years hence
gathering the delicious nuts.-New

Cumbersome Names.

The Director of the Mint at Wash
ington is having terrible time trying
to reduce the names of foreign exhib-
itors at the Exposition to the dimen-
sions of the medals granted by the
Bureau of Awards. There is a little
tablet on the medals which will con-
tain at the utmost only thirty-two let
ters, and some of the foreign names
contain $50 or 200 letters, which he
does not know how to abbreviate.
There is Russian exhibitor, for ex-
ample, whose four names contained
more than 100 letters and only one of
them can be placed upon the medal.
1t is very embarrassing and ticklish
duty to make selection, particularly
when one is not familiar with the Rus
sian language. The Germans, the
Austrians, the Hungarians and the
Bohemians are quite as bad, and as
the list reads now less than half the
foreign names can be properly in
| scribed. The Director of the Mint
has, therefore, decided to ask the as
sistance of the members of the diplo-
matte corps in Washington, and Sec
retary Carlisle will address letter to
the Secretary of State requesting him
| to invite the Ambassa tors and Minis
ters from the European countries to
! call at the Mint Bureau and edit the
names of their constituents. Chicago

by DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
even after the disease has progressed SO
far as to induce repeated bleedings from
the lungs, severe lingering cough with
copious expectoration (including tubercu-
lar matter), great loss of flesh and extreme
eniaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
icai discovery were genuine cases OF that
dread and f tai disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, i'll curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in book of 100
pages which will be mailed to you, on re-
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
You can then write those cured and learn

He Leaped Tor Lille.

Governor James H. Budd, of Cali
fornia, recently told the following
story of IN escape from the bite Of q
rattlesnake which he once had: II
was up in Calnveras County fishing
along the Stanislaus. had been told
of an almost inaccessible pool up the
river at the base of the perpendicular
cliffs, and fairly alive with trout. l
found the place, and also found that
there was only one way to get hook
in the pool. l had to climb on my
hands and knees up steep path to
sort of shelf on the cliff. On the other
side Of the shelf was sheer drop of
forty feet down to the pool. Just as
I dragged myself upon the top of the
ledge the whirr of rattlesnake
startled me. Naturally I jumped to
my feet, exhausted as l was, but
dropped my fishing rod.
'"The coiled rattler was within two
feet Of me and preparing to strike.
Either I had to get down on my hands
and knees again or jump forty feet in
to the pool. AS I saw the diamond
head of the snake draw back to strike
I decided and jumped. Just as sprung
tho rattler struck. had pair of
moccasins on my feet and the fangs of
the snake fastened in the one nearest
him. As / went down I remember see
ing the snake flying over the side of
the pool. It's fangs had caught and I
had carried it with me.
"Just what happened in the second
or two after struck the water in my
dive of forty feet don't know. For
tunately the pool was fairly deep. AS

Treatment for Sprained Ankles.

In these days of bicycling, skating,
tobogganing and other out-of-door
amusements incident to the seasons,
accidents of various kinds are daily
occurring, not usually serious, but Of
ten painful when seemingly slight.
From time to time one hears of
different means of caring for sprained
ankles, turned ankles, twisted wrists,
etc., but the way now in vogue seems
to give better results than any in the
past.
1t is generally an hour after the nc
cident that you are called in to see
the case. The patient is suffering
very severely, and wanting very much
to know if anything is broke" At
ter examining for fractures, the
Southern Medical Journal recon-
mends the parts to be bathed in ex-
tremely hot water, every hour or two,
for a period of fifteen minutes at u
time. Have the water just as hot as
the patient can bear it, and apply
with sponge or cloth, rather than al
low the ankle to lie j the water.
Then dry and let the part rest quietly,
wrapped in fannels, when an applica
tion OF hamamelis, or veratrum and
hamamelis, may be made.
Before retiring, apply flannel
bandage tightly around the swollen
part, only being careful that the cir
culation is not shu e of.
1t is surprising how the hot applica-
tions relieve the pain and produce alb
sorption, and how the bandage, by
pressure, prevents swelling and in
fammation. Scientific American.

Metal Railroad Ties.

A protest against the denudation of
forests in order to secure material for
railroad ties is made in report issued
by the Agricultural Department on
the use of metal railroad ties and pre-
servative processes and metal tie plates
of wooden ties. 1t shows that about
twenty per cent. of the railroad mile
age of the world, outside the United
States and Canada, is laid on metal.
Although progressin this direction in
our country has been slow, the report
says by the waning of forest supplies,
and as the railroad companies begin
more and more to assume a perma-
nent and less speculative character, it
can be question of only short time
when this saving of forest supplies
will be forced upon them, insuring
greater efficiency and final economy.

Insects in . ommunities.

In paper recently read before IN
English scientific association, an in
teresting account was given of the
management of communities of bees
and ants. The functions and duties
of individuals, the guardianship of
community welfare, the facilities for
increase and reconstruction, and the
methods of government were COM
mented on. In colonies of white ants,
it was stated that the governing forces
had the power to produce at will
various kinds Of individuals. Certain
communities have what appeared to
be assistant queens and kings, evident
ly provided in case of accident to or
the death of the existing queen.
There were colonies in which soldier.
ants abounded; others where there
were none at all, but where they were
produced on short notice in times
when there was likely to be need OF
them. Some sorts of ants feed upon
their dead relations, and multltudes
have been destroyed by those who went
outside to get food. They returned
to their homes, died, and were de-
voured by their fellows, they in turn
dying in large numbers. Entire tribes
were swept off in this way. The study
of bees is even more interesting.
There are sometimes hundreds of thou
sands of worker bees with one queen.
1t is quite the rule that only the
workers and the queen survive the
winter. The drone is the male bee,
and when his services are not required
he is killed and thrown from the hive.
The queen lays her eggs in cells built
for her by the workers, who are sex
less bees. In large cells the eggs
hatch into drones; in the small ones
into workers. The queen is fed, the
young bees cared tor and the house
work of the establishment is done by
bees too young for flight or SO old
that their wings will not bear them
on their honey gathering flights. The
queen rarely allows rival, and if a
new queen is Matched, swarm almost
Immediately goes out from the parent

HONEY LOCUST FOR AK HEnvEs.

I have made a discovery-new to
me, at least-that the timber of the
honey locust, Gleditschia triacantha,
is as good, or nearly, as hickory for
ak helves and handles of all kinds.
writes E. s. Gilbert to the New York
Tribune. The sap wood of the yellow
locust is not much good. The honey
locust, like the hickory, has strong
timber clear to the bark, at least in
young trees. The honey locust is cas-
ier to start from the seed than the
other. The nurseries sell the year
ling plants for almost nothing; it has
no borer that I know Of; it's tough
limbs are not torn off by the wind; it
seldom suckers, and is perhaps the
harder of the two. A butt I cut this
fall has annual layers half an inch
thick, and the wood is hard and heavy.

NEGLECTED BUT VALUABLE PEAR.

The Forelle pear is seldom seen, but
it has SO many good qualities that it
merits much more general planting.
1t is called by the Germans, from
whom we have it, Forellen-birne, j. e. /,
Trout pear, because it is speckled like
the brook trout. The pear is below
medium in size, inclining to pyri-
form in shape. When fully ripe, it
is of yellow lemon color, with deep
red cheek on the sunny side. marked
with bright crimson specks. The tree
is good grower and a regular bearer.
1t is fine grained, buttery and melting
in quality. 1t ripens late in October
and with care may be kept until
Christmas. With our modern cold
storage facilities, there would not be
the slightest trouble in prolonging its
season until we'll along in January and
perhaps later. er.--American Agricultur-
