SUN COOKING.
The Chemical Action of the Orb's Rays
Ruined the Food.

Ruined the Food.
Speaking of primitive methods of heat
ing, 1t is undoubtedly fact that man in
early ages used bones to some extent as
fuel, mixing them with pieces of wood.
Bones contain much fatty matter and
small ones burn readily.
In the desert regions of Arizona where
there is no vegetation worth mentioning,
the Indians dig up for fuel the enormously
developed roots of various plants. Pine
cones make fine kindling and are util-
lied for that purpose all over Europe, par
ticularly in the Black Forest and other
parts of Germany.
The attention of many scientific men
has long been engaged in trying to devise
some sort of apparatus for employing g the
suns rays as fuel. One of the mora noted
experimenters in this line is Professor Ed
ward Sylvester Morse. Mirrors arc most
commonly used to concentrate thearays Of
the solar orb for this purpose.
In one instance, not long ago, SUCCESS
was obtained in an attempt to cook goose
by the sun stove Unfortunately, at the
conclusion of the operation it was found
that the bird was spoiled, being rendered
unfit for food by the chemical action of the
suns rays. This, of course might be
avoided by shutting up the articles to be
cooked in closed ovens. But the objection
to the sun stove thus far found insupera-
bic is it's necessary elaborateness and con-
sequent great cost.
Alcohol is an ideal fuel 1t gives great
heat and its combustion is perfect, without
smoke or other solid residuum. In burn
ing it resolves itself into water and car
bonic gas. OF course it is too expensive
for common use, but chemistry may yet
discover way of producing it at aesmall
fraction of its present cost.-Boston Tray

Deafness Caanot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There il only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by all
infiame condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have q
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it IL entirely closed Deaf
ness ia the result. and unless the in
Illumination can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are
eauaed ~ cAtarrh. which is nothing
but an infiamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness (cansed by
Catarrh) that cannot BE- cured by

WADENA AFTER CASS.
"A Small County Wants to In.
crease Its Size by Taking
Part of it.


Since Crow Wing county secured
seventeen townships from Cass
county, there has been cOnsidera BILE
talk Of Wadena county acquiring a
small part Of that cOunty-abOut q
dozen or SO townships. The people
in the south part Of Cass cannot
now hope to get the county seat
when Cass is organized, and It ia
quite possible that they would favor
being attached to Wadena. This
county is rather small one, and is
adjoining the narrow strip III Cass
THAT ext tends down to the Morrison
county line. The settlers OF that
district are nearer Wadena village
County seat of Wadena county,
than any other county seat. II the
district should be attached, Vern-
dale could soon renew her old con-
test for the county seat, as the new
territory would increase her
strength in such a contest. The
suggestion to. take part Of Cass
county first came from verndale
paper.
