Ayers Cathartic Pills

were designed to supply a
model purgative to people who
had SO long injured themselves
with gripping medicines. Being
carefully prepared and their in
gradients adjusted to the exact
necessities of the bowels and
liver, their popularity was in
stantaneous. That this popu-
larity has been maintained is
well marked in the m ed al
awarded these pills at the
Worlds Fair 1898.

THE Exeter (Cal. Penny Press ed1-
torially says: A newspaper stands
in relation to town a good deal as a
flag does to regiment of soldiers.
They are both directly in charge of
one man, but the position they oc-
cupy-whether held high or trailing
in the dust-depends very much upon
the action of the larger body, the reg
iment or the townspeople. The stand
ard bearer or the editor may be ever
so brave and persistent, but if he have
not hearty support and backing by
those others whose flag he carries, his
movements along the line of enter
prise and advance will be failures.

much better returns than can be
gained from political office at 80 much

Topeka, KAN, Dec. 3.-The Topeka
Mail, Arthur Capper's paper, prints
an interview with an officer of a local
charitable institution, who says that
there are 400 deserted wives in this
city. "Some of these women, many
of them, in fact" the officer says,
"are depending on charity. What is
most deplorable, the list is daily in
creasing. Four women called on us
for aid last week, stating that their
husbands had deserted them without
cause, leaving them penniless. We
have not the means to help all these
unfortunate women, but we do the
best we can, aiding those with chill
dren first, and others in turn. Hard
times and cussedness are the causes OF
these desertions."
There ARE about 100 divorce cases
on the docket of the Shawnee county
district court at this time, which fact
bears out the statement of the ehari-
table officer that the number of de-
serted wives is daily increasing. There
are a dozen or more attorneys in To-
peka who make specially of divorce

THE Agricultural College at the
State University is offering two prac-
tical short courses, one for the farm
or and stock breeder, the other for
the horticulturist, both beginning jan
uary 5, 1897, and continuing twelve
weeks. No tuition ia charged. These
courses deal exclusively with the
practical phases of agricultural, dairy
ing and horticulture, and cover the
subjects of breeding, feeding and
Judging live stock, butter and cheese
making, crop growing, veterinary
science, manures and fertilizers,
drainage, orcharding, small fruit
growing, market gardening, methods
of combating injurious insects and de-
structive diseases of the orchard and
field crops, and training in carpentry
and blacksmithing. Even experience
edand successful farmers and horti-
culturists will find many things of
great value to them In these courses.
This instruction, however, is of in
comparably greater value to the young
man just starting out. The man who
is to be successful in farming in the
future must have precisely this in
formation, and it can be secured very
much cheaper and easier and better
at the Agricultural College this win
ter than on the farm through expens-
ivs and painful experiences. 1t will
prove tremendous stimulus to every
farmer in Missouri who can avail
of this instruction. Don't
neglect this opportunity to post your
self on the best and most approved
modern methods of farming and gar
dening. Write to Dean II. J. Waters,
at Columbia, for an illustrated pam
phlet describing these courses, and
begin your preparations to attend.

MECHANICS LIEN LAW.
Query TO the Extent Of Its
Operation Answered.

Operation Answered.
Now and then questions arise as TO The
exact meaning and force of the mechanics
lien law now on the District statute books,
concerning which the animated public con-
troversy was conducted several years ago.
A correspondent signing himself "A Vic
TIM writes to The Star as follows:
viii The Star kindly give the present
status of the builders lien law? Suppose
contractor should collect all, or nearly
ALL that is due for building a house, and
should fail to pay either the workmen OF
for material used. how are they, the work.
men and material men, to get their pay?
Is the property responsible in any way
fer all, or for only such amount as has not
already been paid to said contractor"
IL answer The Star gives the following
synopsis of the statute:
The act of Congress of July 2, 1854. the
latest law on the subject, provides that
every building hereafter erected Or re-
| paired here shall be subject 10 a lien in
\ favor of the contractor. subcontractor,
material man, jourreyman, and laborer,
respectively, for the payment for work or
| materials contracted for or furnis ned, pro-
yided the person claiming The lien snail file

Supreme Court during or within three

| ing or repairs a notice Of his intention TO
| hold a lien on the property; provided fur
| tier, the lien shall not exceed or be en-
| forced for a sum greater than the amount
| of the original contract for the said cree
| ton or repairs. Such lien shall be pre-
| ferred to all judgments, mortgages ani
| other membranes attaching on said
building or ground. Suit to enforce such
| lien may be commenced within one year
| after filing of the said notice or the compile
| ton of the building or repairs.
| In the case of Whelan ct al agt. Young
/ ct al decided by the Court in General
| Term June %, 1892. it was held that sub
| contractor who postpones filing his notice
| of lien until the principal part OF the col-
| tract price has been paid by the owner TO
| the contractor can assert a lien on the
| property only to the extent OF what re-
4 mains due under the contract. In such a
| case the lien has no retroactive effect. but
| operates only from the date of fling. The
| rights of a subcontractor are statutory, and
| do not grow out of any privity If con-
4 tract with the owner. Ii is the duty Of
| subcontractors, in the exercise OF the priyi-
| leges granted them by the mechanics
| lien law, to use such diligence as 10 avert
| loss to every one Interested.
