Wisconsin man, that the state of Wis

course, only the lower grades can be
raised in so cold climate, but we sup
ply the western plug manufacturers

growing crop he should take drive

A MISSED KISS.
The Reason Why Two Ambassadors Lost
Their Places.

The Reason Why Two Ambassadors Lost
Their Places.
Two ambassadors have lost their
places through their failure to take adj
vantage afforded them to kiss the hand
of the czarina, says the Seattle Post
Intelligencer. Count Monticello, the
French ambassador, lost his place. 1t
is not made known whether he only
obeyed orders or not, but he had to suf-
fer the penalty. 1t was very unfor-
tunate for him that when the French
people through their government had
undertaken to show their friendship for
Russia by a most lavish display of os-
tentatious ceremony and the expendi-
ture of many millions of dollars the
entire effect should be lost by the fail
ure of the chief functionary to press
his lips to the imperial hand.
The other ambassador who lost his
position is Prince Radalin, the repre-
sentative at the Russian court of the
German empire. No reason is given for
his omission to observe a customary act
of homage. He had not the excuse Of
being the minister from republic. He
represented a court where such cere-
monies are strictly observed and an i'm
perial master who is as strict in re-
quiring observance of court etiquette
as the Russian emperor. These pun
ishments should be warning to all men
never to lose favorable opportunity
to kiss a lady's hand. Many man has
lived to regret that he has not seized
a suitable occasion to snatch a kiss;
there seems to be more danger in being
tooremissthaninb being too bold. Where
the danger lies and how great it will be
either in abstaining or acting is mat
ter for individual Judgment. But it is
sometimes worth risking, it would

"BOYS ALL OVER"
How Two Youngsters Experimental with
Poison Ivy.

robson Ivy.
Superintendent Kimball, of the life
saving service, told story of two boys,
and it is so boys all over" as most
mothers would say, that it ought to be
printed. The now accomplished officer
says that when he was boy he had
chum, and both were poisoned year
after year while running about the
woods by poison ivy. One day, says
the Washington Star, they heard or read
something to the effect that if persons
would swallow two or three leaves of
the ivy they would never again be af-
fected by it. To relieve themselves of
the regular summer and often-recur-
ring annoyance they decided to take
few leaves of it as medicine. Mr.. KIM
ball was of an investigating turn of
mind, and found out that on the under
side of the leaf there was very fine
dust. He told his companion that as
they were experimenting it would be
well to see if it made any difference
whether one side or the other con-
tanned the poison. He rolled up his
three leaves so as to cover the dust, and
his friend rolled his so as to leave the
dust side exposed. With glass of water
and as little chewing as possible they
swallowed their doses. The result was
something horrible, especially for the
boy who took the dusty side of the ar
gument. For weeks after he could not
shut his mouth on account of the terri
BILE condition of his mouth and throat.
He had TO be fed with liquids by quill,
and it was only miracle that he did not
die. Mr.. Kimball Jared somewhat bet
ter, especially as to his mouth and
throat, but there was trouble enough on
the inside to make up for it. And there
was no cure worked. The next season
they suffered as before.
'Now, vast that like boy?" IS
what everybody said, and what all will
say now.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10.

Every day engagements are entered into,
and marriages are made between people
who have no business to be married. Wo-
men enter into the most serious obligation
of life without the proper physical equip
ment for il. When a woman marries, she
tacitly makes the declaration that she means
to become the mother of children. This
declaration ought also to mean that she is
physically able to perform what she under
takes. The bearing of a child is all too fire.
quentiy an injustice to both mother and
child. The woman who expects to bear in
tellectual and physically healthy children,
should be herself in strong and vigorous
health. The organs that make her woman
should be free from any faint of disease or
weakness. If they are not, the child Will
have a bare chance for health, and the
mother may easily make herself weak,
nervous, se1ni-invalid for the rest of her life.
Female weakness of any kind-whether he
reditary or acquired-may be cured by the
right sort of treatment. DR.. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription is designed for the treat
ment and cure of just this one class of dis
eases and no other. 1t works in perfectly
rational way directly on the organs affected.
1t cleanses them of all impurities; allays
any inflammation that may be present-and
that generally is present in sickness; re-
stores the organs to their natural, healthy,
regular action prepares them for the &C.
complishment of woman's greatest work,
and if taken during CESSATION, the time of
parturition will be comparatively safe and
painless.
The "Favorite Prescription is not cure-all,
and if the general system is rundown, Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery should be
taken in connection with the Favorite Prescrip-
ton" These two medicines together have the
most wonderful influence on a woman's health.
They will round out the hollows in her cheeks,
bring redness to bloodless lips and brightness TO
lack-lustre-eyes. At all drug stores.

Not long ago a venerable couple from
a far western town arrived late at night
at a seaside resort, and, being weary.
went at once to bed. just as the hus-
band was falling asleep he murmured:
"Listen to the surf, Matilda; it's glor-
ious, worth the journey, haven't heard
it for 40 years" In the morning they

CURIOUS CLOCKS.
How Some People of Foreign Lands
Reckon Time.

HOW some People OF Foreign Lanos
Reckon Time.
Neither clock nor timepiece is to be
found in Liberia. The reckoning of
time is made entirely by the movement
and position of the sun, which rises at
six a. m. and sets at six p. m, almost
to the minute, all the year round, and
at noon is vertically overhead, says
Popular Science News. The islanders
of the South Pacific have no clocks,
but make an ingenious and reliable
time marker of their own. They take
the kernel from the nuts of the candle
tree and wash and string them on the
rib of a palm leaf. The first or top
kernel is then lighted. All of the ker-
enls are of the same size and substance,
and each will burn certain number of
minutes and then set fire to the enc
next below. The natives tie pieces of
black cloth at regular intervals along
the string to mark the divisions of time.
Among the natives of Singar, in the
Malay archipelago, another peculiar
device is used. Two bottles are placed
neck and neck, and sand is put in one
of them, which pours itself into the
other every half hour, when the bottles
are reversed. There is line near by,
also, on which are hung IL rods with
notches from one to twelve.
