In case the water enters the well as

may be done wholly from the top, if a
guide is made for holding the tile in
place as it is lowered until earth is
filed around. When completed, the
excavation is filed by replacing the
earth. and nothing is open except the
interior of the column of tile. For
such a wall as this, care should be

Sick Headache.

The periodical recurrence of sick
headache, with many persons, is a
grievous affliction. Those who suffer
from it should correct every habit, and
avoid all indiscretions. which they
know are likely to be followed by an
attack. They should also overcome
every arrangement of the system
which exists, If possible, and strength
en- every part and function of the
same. In fact, they should treat at
first, not the head and its aches, bnt
endeavor to build up the general
health. In the attempt to do
SO they must not indiscrim-
inately dose themselves with
drugs, but rather depend upon
pure air, exercise, sufficient sleep, good,
wholesome food and like measures.
One of the greatest essentials in treat
ment will be careful selection of diet
and rigid restriction to those articles
of food which, in their experience,
have proved the least burdensome to
their digestive organs. There is no
dietary which is alike suited to all.
Each must learn what. and how much.
is proper for him or her to eat, and
what should be avoided, and those sub
stances which are known to be difficult
of digestion should never be indulged
in- While careful not to tax the stom-
ach, they must keep the bowels active.
If constipation exists, headaches are
quite certain to occur.-N. Y. Ledger.

MUSHROOM CULTIVATION.

Do Not Come Up All at Once, Nor Do
They Grow Forever.
Mushrooms do not come up all at
once. nor do they grow forever. If the
spawn is good and planted early in
September, from four to fre, and
sometimes six, weeks will expire be-
fore the first crop of mushrooms makes
its appearance.
The first crop will flow for two or
three weeks, then nhe mushrooms will
thin out, and slight dressing of fresh
loan, about halt an inch in depth,
should be spread over the bed. When
this coating has been beaten down
with spade, the soil should be gent
ly moistened with tepid water, and in
day or two second crop of mush-
rooms (often better than the first) can
be gathered. The second crop of mush-
rooms may last for three or four weeks,
and about the latter part of December
the spawn will be found to have ex-
hausted itself, and fresh manure, fresh
spawn and fresh loan must be pro-
cured for the formation of new beds if
another crop of mushrooms is desired.
To grow mushrooms successfully
great care must be taken to obtain
fresh spawn. which can be bought in
all the horticultural stores. But if
the cultivator wishes to make his own
spawn, he can do so by following these
directions: Take equal portions Of
horse dropping, COW dung, and fresh
loan, you mix the whole thoroughly
together, as you would make mortar.
Then form the matter into cakes
about the size of a large brick. Place
these bricks on edge under cover until
they become half dry. then insert into
each brick piece of spawn half an
inch or so square, and let the bricks
remain until they are quite dry. Then
spread about eight inches of horse
dung over the floor of the shed, on
which build the bricks in pile. keep
ing the side in which the spawn has
been put uppermost. Then cover the
pile of bricks over with sufficient sta

GOLD NUGGETS.

Finding Out How They Originated and
What Their Structure Is.
There are few more attractive OBJ
jects in the mineral world than fine
nugget of gold. IL is not alone the
value it represents that makes such a
nugget admirable, for nature often
| shows herself more skillful than any
jeweler in molding it into shapes OF
beauty. People who can afford such
luxuries will pay a price considerably
beyond the weight value for chunk
of pure gold whose form has not been
| altered by the hand of man.
But how do nuggets of gold origi-
nate? Sometimes mass of the precious
metal worth one thousand dollars or
so much gold compacted into a lump?
answer this question
Prof. Liversidge of the Royal society
in Australia has lately been cutting
and slicing and polishing gold nuggets
with the sole purpose OF finding out
just what their structure is. The first
| thing he discovered was that there is
one curious point of resemblance be-
tween gold nuggets and meteorites-
both when polished and etched with
chlorine water exhibit a crystalline
structure. In the case of meteorites
the lines thus exhibited on the etched
surface are called Widmannstattian
figures, and their presence is one of
the most invariable characteristics Of
those metallic bodies that fall out of
the sky upon the earth.
But it is not meant to be implied
that gold nuggets have fallen from
the sky because they exhibit crys-
talline structure recalling that of me-
teorites. The resemblance is appar-
emily only superficial, and the crystals
of the nuggets differ in form from
those of the meteorites-
Another curious fact is that when a
nugget is heated in a Bunsen fame ex-
plosions take place on its surface.
Blisters are formed which continue to
swell until they burst with a sharp re-
port, and bits of gold are violently
scattered about. It is evident that the
nuggets contain either gases. or some
LIQUIDS or solids which are easily
turned into the gaseous form, and the
expansion of which produces the ex-
plosions.
Prof. Liversidge has not yet drawn
any definite conclusions from his ex-
periments. He wants new supply
of nuggets from which to ascertain
what the explosive substance they
contain is, and, if possible. how it got
there. Having done that he may be
able to tell how nature goes to work
when she makes gold nugget. That
information would not, it is true, in
crease the amount of gold in the world
and probably it would not put any
gold into the discoverer's pockets; yet
it would be knowledge, and knowledge
is power in ways that we are frequent
" unable to foresee.-Youth's Com
panion.

THE LAST CHANCE.

From the Ledger. Aerico, No
Mrs. Lucinda johnson lives in Mexico,
Mo. The Ledger has Just succeeded in OBJ
tanning an interview with her. This is the
substance of her story:
In the winter of ,92 and ,o3 Mrs. johnson
was, like many Of her friends, attacked
with la grippe. Yes, We've most of us had
gets in its work on good constitution.
Well, Mrs. johnson, along about Christ
mas, was prostrated. All the medical aid
here in the city only "brought her around, -
as an eherbs and roots" female sympathizer
expressed it, and she was left in debili-
tated and exhausted condition and expe-
rienced a constant pain in her left side She
was wholly unfit for her domestic duties
house, even after the La grippe fever and its
characteristic sickness had left her. She is
a consistent mem ber of the church, and one
Sunday, between the Sunday school and
church services beng barely aole 20 ,bst De con- on
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People had
performed and she resolved to try them. It
was like the drowning man grabbing at the
last straw. It was her last and only chance
to save her life. She procured one box of
these pills from the south side druggists,
French & Garrett, in this city, and by the
time she had used half the box she and her
ment in her condition Taking the rest Of
the box Of pills and one more box she re-
covered remarkably in an exceedingly short
time. Before she had used the first box she
resumed her household duties and has been
steadily at work for the last eighteen
months. I took only few boxes, perhaps
five or six, to entirely cure her. Since then
she was attacked by rheumatism, caused
from careless expos ure, but by at once tax
ing the Pink Pills for Pale People, she
drove that painful and dreadful malady
away. She told the reporter that whenever
she felt that she was going to be i'll, she
took one two of the pills and she never got
sick. Mrs. johnson Is perfectly healthy
now and promises to live to ripe old age.
Her friends have never ceased to talk about
her almost miraculous recovery and are
Pale People, and all who have tried them
say they would not be without them under
any conditions.
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills are not looked
upon as patent medicine, but rather as
prescription. An analysis of their proper
ties shows that they contain, in condensed
form, all the elements necessary to give
new life and richness to the blood and re-
store shattered nerves. They are an un-

etc. They are also specific for troubles
peculiar to females, such as suppressions,
