INSEPARABLE TWINS.
Rival the Siamese Twins and
North Carolina Belle.


Mrs. Budd Mcpherson, wife of a
Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling railway
conductor, this morning gave birth to
a most remarkable freak of nature. 1t
was a double child, or united twins,
riyaling in some respects the famous
Siamese twins, says the Plain Dealer
of April IA. The children are both
alive and now bid fair to reach the age
of maturity One is boy and faces
one way. the other is girl and faces IN
the opposite direction.
The union, which local physicians
regard as a vital link, occurs from
point a little above the boys rlgnI
shoulder and extends nearly to the
top of the heads. There are four legs,
four arms, four eyes, two looking III
each direction, two mouths, put ohly
one pair of ears. There is simuIta-
neous pulse in both bodies. Nheh
one child lies on its face In sucn d
way as to interfere with It's DreaIh-
ing the other cries as II IN ulSIreSS'
The boy twin is the stronger or the Two
and takes nourishment as naturally
as any other child, but the female
twin has not yet taken any food, al
though it apparently feels no hunger,
indicating that the boy must take
nourishment for both bodies.
The mother is woman thirty-eight
wears of age and the mother of five
bright and we'll formed children. The
parents feel very sensitive over this
unexpected and undesirable nOtoTiety.
Although a fortune lies easily within
the grasp of the father in case the
twins live he is not a man who will
be likely to take advantage of such
an opportunity.

In our Safe Deposit Vault which are
not yet rented. There are four sizes,
varying in price from $12 to $50 per

these boxes are perfectly safe, as the

keys to each box, both of which are
given to the party renting box, and
should these keys be stolen they
would be useless to bearer as he could
not open the box without our master

THE
''SuCCeSS''
is THE
PERFECT FILTER!
BECAUSE:

F1rst-The filtering medium is Tri-
poll Stone which does not receive into
its pores the filth and germs it extracts
and which is always the same, no
matter how long in use.
Second-The action of the filter
downward, from an upper to a lower
Jar, passes the water, drop by drop,
through the air, restoring the oxygen
thereby which the water may have lost
from stagnation, confinement, or other
wise, and imparting to it freshness of
taste, sparkle and vitality.
Third-Its action is as rapid as is
consistent with efficacy. a too rapid
f1ltering does not wholly remove i'm
purities
Fourth-Every part is accessible for
cleaning, and without laborious effort
Thorough cleanliness is the chief requ-
isfte of any good filter.
Fifth-The jars being made either of
stoneware or porcelain insures water
being kept pure and uncontaminated
after being filtered.
Sixth-Stoneware for those who de-
sire an efficient yet low-priced filter,
and the finest porcelain, decorated to
suit, enables the SUCCESS to accom-
modate itself to the wants of all in
the matter of price.
Seventh-ItS construction admits
also OF its capacity being adapted to
suit the wants of all, from the indi-
vidual tourist to the largest hotel or
laundry.
Since introducing the Success Fill
ter, we have sold a large number OF
them, and they give perfect satisfac-
ton.

NEWMAN, ILL, NOV. 2, 1895.
DEERE & COMPANY, MOLINE. ILL.
DEAR SIRS: Our exhibition of the
New Disc Pillow in broom corn at this
place today was not only a success but
complete surprise to all the farmers
present, and was an agreeable surprise
to myself in that sort of work. talked
with every farmer at the exhibition,
and the majority of them sold the plow
was worth all it cost just to plow
broom corn. Just think how absurd it
would be to try to pillow in heavy broom
corn without breaking or raking and
burning the stalks, but the Disc Pillow
will do it, and do it well. From what l
have seen of this pillow think it is the
only plow, for broom corn, at least.
Yours truly,
JAMES MOORE.

cure from his apple orchards lG-ge
crops OF fruit during the past thrse
years, when other orchards In his
county have failed TO bear. He at
tributes many OF the failures to lack
OF cultivation, pruning aud spraying,
and believes that many have lost more
from the failure of their apple crop
due to the lack of proper care and at
tention, than could be obtained from
hundreds OF acres OF farm crops. from
forty acres OF apple orchards he claims
to have received larger returns than
from two hundred acres in farm crops,
averaging about $50 per acre for the
last seven years. He finds cultivation
and pruLing essential, and plows
the land IN the spring and sows to
field peas. About August the hogs
are turned in to feed them down, as
well as to eat the fallen apples and
thus destroy the codling moth. The
trees were sprayed with Dor leaux
mixture and Paris green, the former
for the scnb fungus upon the frnit and
foliage, and tho latter TO destroy the
| canker worm, codliug moth and tent
| caterpillar. In 1895 he considered
that the returns from the spraying
were not less than $500.
When the time comes to harvest the
apples, he first picks up all wiudfalis
and disposes of them as soon as posi-.
bic. The apples are then picked,
placed in baskets, and hauled to the
barn, upon ow-down, "haudy"
wagon with wide platform, where
they are placed in bins. He packs in
barrels holding two bushels and three
pecks, and ships as soon as good
price Is offered. He finds it pays to
take pains in packing and to make the
fruit look attractive. The European
demand for American apples is grow.
ing, and should be encouraged. New
