An Atchison man who visited in Wes-
tern Kansas last week found the family
sleeping without pillow cases, and using
a tin bucket for teapot. He expressed
his surprise, and was told that the banks
of that county refused to take any more
money on deposit, and they were keep
ing theirs in the pillow cases and teapot.
The family were much worried for fear
that, when the corn and cattle are sold,
they will have to take off their socks and
stockings to hide their money ink.

A GREAT DROUGHT.
1t Extends ali Over the Countr

1t Extends ali Over the Country.
ST. LOUIS, No., Oct. 6.-United States
Observer Frankenfeld said today that
the present unprecedented drought ex-
tends oil over the country. He added:
"Speaking from this station, the states
of Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Kansas,
Nebraska and Arkansas are all in great
need Of wet weather.
''Iowa has had more rain than some
of the surrounding states, but is now in
almost as bad q condition as the other
states.
s'Missouri and Illinois are suffering
the most, particularly the southern por-
ton Of Illinois and central Missouri.
There is yet no indication Of rain"
Observators from these states say that
the ground il too dry for fall blowing,
and all the country roads are from two
to four inches deep in dust. The ripen-
ing corn hangs dull and apparently life
less IN the heat Of summer sun and
everything is parched. In many sections
Of Missouri the cisterns have gone dry
and the danger of lire in the small cities
and towns IL imminent.
The Mississippi and Missouri rivers
have not been 60 low IN ten years.

BAND SAWS.
Tho Straight Ribbon of Steel and It's Value
In Lumber Working.

Tho Straight Ribbon of Steel and It's Value
In Lumber Working.
Tho first attempt In the United States
tn turn out lumber with band saw was
made about 20 years ago. The saw then
used, however, while excellent In cutting
on beautiful wave line, scorned the mar
tistic mechanically straight one. The true
theory In regard to the nature and treat
ment OF circular saws, which were then In
we'll established use, was only beginning
to be understood, and ten years ella psed be-
fore it was understood in reference to
band saws.
The circular saw was treated as disk OF
tempered steel, was ground fat on one side
and slightly convexed on the other. Such
q saw did fair work at low or moderate
speed, but an increase of speed resulted
In crooked lumber. But some wise fller
conceived the idea of treating the circular
not as fiat disk, but as ring OF steel,
connected to its center by an easy filling
of the same material, forming, Of course,
one disk.
1t was not absolutely fat when at rest !;
but II set up in position, as In the mill, II
would be found to be slightly convex on
one side and concave on the other, and
this convexity and concavity could, by a
little pressure, be easily made to change
sides, acting the same as when pressure is
exerted on the bottom of an old tin pan
1t pops In or out as required.
A circular saw in this condition, which
Is obtained by hammering the central
part, when placed on its arbor and set In
rapid motion, straightens itself The GEN.
trifugal force of the whole blade is concen-
trated in the rim, which slightly yields, al.
lowing the saw to run In q beautifully true
plane which 1t has both the disposition
and ability to constantly preserve. In this
condition, when suitably dressed for its
work, the circular saw Is perfected piece
OF machinery
After the first introduction of band
mills many years passed before this con-
structive principle was applied to them.
AS soon as this took place the band saw
began to take rank in speed OF lumber
making with its powerful rival, which
hitherto held the field.
Tension In the cutting edge of the blade
Is the principle referred to, which all saws
must possess in order to do their best
work. In the circular saws this IL OBJ
tained by hammering the central part of
rhe saw. In the band saw 1t Is by rolling
the middle portion of the blado-that is
the saw Is passed through machine be-
tween two small steel rollers under heavy
pressure, which expands the middle por
tion of tho saw throughout its entire
length. Applying straightedge to the
side of saw, either longitudinally OF
transversely, will show convex and con
cave places alternating all along the blade.
But when placed on the wheels of the mill
under four ton strain, all these kinks dis
appear. 1t then becomes one straight rib
bon of steel, with its edges SO tight that
there is no chance for deviation in saving.
1t cuts straight.-W. H. Trout In Cassier's
Magazine.

icine.
DIR. Redwell Irelates an interesting ac-
count of what he considers q remarkable
cure of acute stomach trouble and chronic
dyspepsia by the use of the new discovery,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was man who had
suffered to my knowledge for years with
dyspepsia. Everything he ate seemed to
sour and create acid and gases In the stom-
ach: he had pains like rheumatism In the
back, shoulder blades and limbs, fullness
and distress after eating, poor appetite and
loss OF flesh; the heart became affected,
causing palpitation and sleeplessness at
night.
gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose. AS an
experiment finally bought fifty cent
package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
drug store and gave them to him. Almost
immediate relief was given and after he
had used four boxes he was to all appear
ances fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour watery
risings, no bloating after meals, the ap-
petite was vigorous and he has gained be-
tween 10 and II pounds in weight Of solid,
healthy flesh.
Although stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
advertised and sold in drug stores, vet /
consider them a most valuable addition to
any physicians line OF remedies, as they
are perfectly harmless and can be given to
children or invalids or in any condition OF
the stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but veg
etable and fruit essences, pure pepsin and
| Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the safest,
most effective cure for indigestion, bilious
| ness, constipation and all arrangements of
| the stomach however slight or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made by
the Stuart Co. of Marshall, Mich, and sold
by druggists everywhere at fifty cents per
