A good story is told of f. E. Parks,
formerly of Pittsfeld, and how he saved
himself from serious loss by his shrewd-
ness. He dealt largely in hay and the
"grasshopper year" so-called by the far
mers, when hay was selling for $40 per
ton, he purchased quite quantity to ship
to Boston. Going up to the "Hub," he
learned that there had been decline in
the market, and that he had paid go high
for what he had bargained for that he
must lose at least $40 on every ton. The
situation was not pleasant one to con-
template but he hurried home and bril-
liant idea struck him. Harvesting up he
drove around and called on those Of whom
he had purchased hay. He met them
with a smile and appeared happy. In r.-
ply to query as to the hay market, he
answered evasively and the farmer read
lily suspected that Parks was coming big
money. Finally Parks played off and
the farmer would tell him that he was
sorry that he sold so soon and the result
was Parks would reluctantly ~ tell him
that he might keep the hay if he would
return the money which had been adj
yanced to bind the trade. This scheme
worked with nearly every farmer and
Parks got out Of the box he was in with
very little loss.

The Shakers of Mount Lebanon, a
community of simple, honest, God-fear-
ing men and women, have prepared the
Shakers Digestive Cordial for many
years, and it is always the same, simple,
honest, curative medicine that has help
ed to make the Shakers the healthy.
longlived people that they are. The
Shakers never have Indigestion. This is
partly owing to their simply mode Of
life, partly to the wonderful properties
of Shaker Digestive Cordial. Indiges-
ton is caused by the stomach glands not
supplying enough digestive juice. Shak-
er kDigestive Cordial invigorates the
stomach and all it's glands so that after
awhile they don't need help. AS evil
dence of the HONESTY of Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial, the formula is printed on
every bottle. Sold by druggists, price
10 cents to $1.00 per bottle.

" 1r.-s,-
IngroMing Hair.

The barber was talking. "Ingrowing
hairs in the face are often painful" he
remarked, "but they aren't in it with
lngrowing hairs under the finger nails.
Fact, | assure you. Ask any barber, and
he will tell you the same thing. How
do they get there? Oh. that's simple
enough. In cutting a mans hair, a
short hair very often flies off the shears
and lodges under the finger nail. We
don't notice it at the time, and it grad
ually works its way in until it is COM
pletely out of sight. Then the trouble
begins. Sometimes it takes root and
grows out, but more often it just stays
there and testers. Does the razor hurt?
There you are, sir. Next!'-Philadel-

nesday Night.
Accurate Details Impossible for Days.
Killed and Wounded May Number
Thousands. Property Loss Many
Millions.

After an %oppressively hot day with
no wind, St. Louis was visited at Sis
Wednesday by perhaps the most ter.
rible and destructive storm in the
annals Of the country. Three cy.
clones coming from the northwest,
west and southwest seemed to unite
to wreak their fury upon the the
doomed city. Massive structures of
stone and iron were as card board be.
fore the storm and a large part of the
city is in ruins, East St. Louis and
the river sections suffering most.
The solid famous masonry of the
Eads bridge succumed and a por.
ton is in ruins, Lights were out,
and wires down and amid darkness,
and all the destruction and death
caused by the storm, the horror of
fire was added. Rescue proceeded
very slowly amid the darkness of that
first night and it will be days before
full details of the awful calamity can
be known. 1t is probable that other
towns in:the vicinity suffered, but un-
til wires are repaired no authentic
reports can be had. The loss of life
and property is variously estimated.
1t is probable that the killed and
wounded will number more than a
thousand and that the property loss
is from ten to thirty millions.
