Plants That Eat Meat.

II has been proved time and again
that the so-called "cannibal plants"
Of which the Venus fiytrap is the type,
are much more healthy when allowed
their regular insect food than when
they arc reared under netting or in
any other manner which excludes them
from the regular meat diet.
The above is an oddity Of itself, es-
pecially when we consider the fact that
there is a certain school of botanists
which teaches plants make no use
whatever OF the insect prey captured
by them, but it is nothing compared
with the bold assertion made by Fran
els Darwin.
That noted scientific gentleman
brayely meets the vegetarian botan-
lists" with the assertion that all kinds
and classes of plants, whether known
as "meat eaters" or not, bear more
aad heavier fruits and seeds when fed
on meat than those that are
not allowed q flesh diet.
He grew two lots, comprising
various varieties of the different COM
mon plants One lot was regularly
fed Through their roots of course,
with pure juices compressed from
meat, the other with water and the
various fertilizers.
The final figures on this odd expert
ment proved that the plants which
wero fed pure meat juice bore 1853
fruits of the different kinds, while the
unfed plants of the same number aud
original condition bore but IA.
Also that the pampered plants bore
24O seeds to every 100 borne by the
plants that we're not given a chance to
crafty cannibalistic tastes.
This is certainly worthy of much
careful study aud extensive expert
ment-Philadelphia Item.

A Sure Weed.KiIler

The latest method of killing weeds
is by electricity. Professor Wood
worth, of Michigan Agricultural Coll
lege, has been making experiments
which show that the new method is
sure and effective. A wheelbarrow or
wagon is loaded with storage batteries
from which long wires trail along the
ground. The wagon is then taken
over the land to be cleared and wher-
ever the wires touch weed it is in
stantly killed clear down to the roots.
The professor claims that electric
ity is preferable to almost anything
else for destroying the dreaded Rus
sian and Canada thistle.
These hardy pests resist most weed
killing compounds, because the roots
are not des troyed and the plants
spring up again with renewed vigor.
The electric current, however, runs
down to the lowest root and distroys

IS IT A TRlFLEq

That Common Trouble. Sour stomach Now
Known to be the Source Of SERIOUS
Diseases.
''Sour stomach" is the common
name for acid dyspepsia. and becauf e
1t is a common everyday trouble with
many people, they have come to look
upon it as Of little consequence, as
affecting the general health. Never
theless. the most serious diseases
have their beginning from this very
condition. 1t is caused in the first
place from weakness OF the stomach,
which instead of promptly digesting
and Opposing of the food. allows it to
lie in the stomach for hours ferment-
ing. causing gas, sour rising in the
mouth. heart burn headaches, op-
preston. dependency, dullness. etc
The blood is thin, impure. and
circulation poor simply because it is
rep!enished from this mass of fer
menting, half digested food. This
condition Of the stomach cannot con-
tinue very long without deranging
the nervous system, the kidneys,
heart, liver or lungs. Which ever is
weakest will break down first.
Pure blood. strong nerves and
muscles. firm. healthy flesh can only
come from wholesome food we'll d.
gested. Blood purifiers" and s.nerve
tonics' do not reach the cause of the
mischief. The stomach is the point
to be looked after. The safest and
surest way to cure any form of indi-
gestion is to take after each meal
some harmless preparation which
will of itself digest food. There is
an excellent preparation of this kind
composed of vegetable essences, pure
pepsin, Golden Seal and fruit salts,
sold by druggists under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and these
tablets taken after meals assist di-
gestion wonderfully because they
will digest the food promptly. before
it has time to ferment and sour and
the weak stomach relieved and as.
sisted in this way soon becomes
strong and vigorous again.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are su-
perior to any secret patent medicines
because you know what you are tax
ing into your stomach. They are
sold by druggists everywhere at so
cents per package.

HOUSE UNsEATs ELLIOTT AGAIN.
South Carolina Contest Case Decided in
Favor Of MURRAY.


Favor Of MURRAY.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-By q vote of 153
to 81 the house decided against the claim
of Elliott, from the First South Carolina
district, and gave the scat to Murray.
Murray Is a colorcd man and in the Fifty
first congress was seated in place of FL
lott. The latter had !, 734 majority on the
face Of the returns, but the committee
found that the former had carried the dis
trict by n majority Of 43i. Murray was
given n round of applause when he came
forward to be sworn in. Elliott is the
ninth Democrat unseated by the present
house. The remainder of the day was
mainly occupied in debating the case Of
Martin VS.. LOckhart, from the Seventh
North Carolina district.
The contestant is Populist, and KEN
(Pop.), Of Nebraska, who has been waging
n guerilla warfare in the house with .
view of getting up bill in which he Is in
terested, was considerably embarrassed by
this case, as he was forced into the posi-
ton of objecting to the filing of the views
of the minority. This caused dissatis-
faction on the Republican side among
members who did not desire to vote until
they had an opportunity to examine both
sides of the case. It was finally arranged
to read the report and let the vote be taken
today.
The final conference report on the gen.
eral deficiency appropriation bill was
agreed to and also partial report on the
District of Columbia bill. The senate
amendments to the bill to retire Conn
mandcr Quackenbush were adopted The
conference report on the bill to pension
the widow Of the Late Senator George
Spencer, of Alabama, WINS agreed to.
