DEAR AIRs: SEPTRMBBn "a, 1895
wish to tell you and suffering humanity
how much good "B DROPS" has done me.
On the beginning OF this year took down
bedfast with InfammatOry Rheumatism, and
Twas doctOred by as good physicians as this
country has, but they could not cure me. On
August 4, began to take IS DROPS" AZ
that time every joint In my body and my
limbs were stiff, so that could not DO

that could hardly speak 80 any one could
understand me, but to-day, only seven weeks
from that time, l am absolutely cured, and
thank you and God for my recovery.

PigmieS In Guiana.

It is reported through Science that an
American commercial traveller in Guiana
has recently discovered in that country
villages inhabited by little people, aver
aging only about AZ feet in height.
Humboldt, when in South America many
years ago, heard stories Of dwarfs living
in those regions, hut he saw none, and
seems TO have given little credit 10 the
reports about them that reached his ears.
1t will be remembered that Stanley, in
his last expedition in Africa, found COM
munlties Of dwarfs whose existence had
also been previously reported, but gener-
ally doubted.

Successful New Fodder Crop.

New fodder crops continue to attract
much attention at the Vermont station.
Sofa beans OF the green and black va
rieties have proven satisfactory each
year. No other leguminous hoed crop
has given better returns in tonnage of
green fodder, dry matter or protein.
The green variety yielded at the rate of
six and one-half tons green and two
tons dry fodder, and nearly one-fourth
of a ton of protein to the acre

French peasants have belief that if a
fire with much smoke is made In the
stove on the approach Of a storm, safety
from lightning will be insured. Schuster
shows that the belief is based on reason,

One Polling Place In Each.

The action of the board of education
in deciding that there should be only
one polling place in each municipal
ward for the school election on Wednes-
day, Dec. /, is being warmly COM
mended by friends of economy, as
such action does away with the unnec-
Hssary expense of renting 1--WE or more
halls above the number now required.
1t also does away with any confusion
in the minds OF voters as to the loca-
ton of polling places, there being only
one In each municipal ward to look to-.
There has been raised the objection
that if there We're crowd come out at
the election, one polling place and one
set of Judges might be insufficient.
This is answered effectually by the
friends of economy In saying that extra
halls for polling places are unneces-
sary. but that additional sets OF judes
may be provided II 1t should be thought
there is need for them.
Under the easy and simply method
of voting at the school election, two
sets of judges at each polling place
could take care Of the full city vote
easily, and there being but two offices
in each ward to be filled. could canvass
the vote eNpeditiously. Thus with the
two sets of judges and one polling place
all forceful objections would be over
come and the rule of the strictest con-
sistent economy be observed.

CATTLE ROASTED ALIVE.
They are Caught in a Fire on Santa Fe
Stock Train.


Topeka, Kansas. Nov. 22.-Slxteen
head Of cattle were roasted alive In a
Santa Fe cattle car at Wakarusa sta
ton last night. The believing Of the
tortured beasts could be heard for miles
and attracted the entire inhabitants Of
the surrounding country to the scene.
The car was in the middle OF the
stock express. AS the train neared
Wakarusa, the bedding of the car was
discovered to be on fire. All possible
speed was made TO reach the water
tank at Wakarusa, but by the time the
train stopped at the tank the flames
were beyond control in one car and had
spread to the cars on either side.
The burning car was uncoupled from
the train and the efforts of the train
men directed to saving the other two
cars. They were broken open and the
cattle allowed to escape while the fire
in these two cars were extinguished.
For almost an hour scores of spec
tators watched the cattle in the isolat-
cd car slowly roast to death.
