the men of their tribes. This special woman's
remedy was the one of most interest to the
squaws of the tribe, it being prepared by them
as in fact were all the other remedies. To-
day kickapoo Indian Prairie Plant can be
bought of any druggist, and it is identically
the same as when it was prepared by the
dian Remedies can also be bought, and it
should be remembered that these medicines
are all-while prompt and efficient in their
action absolutely harmless, as they contain
no poisonous ingredients of any description.
We would advise women who suffer to give
this remedy a single trial and good health
will reward them. Kickapoo Indian Sagwa
also should be used to invigorate and build
up a depleted condition of the body.

AUSTRALIAN WHEAT CROP SHORT

United States Consul Bell, writing from Sydney,
N < W., Australi,. has the following 10 say
about the heat crop in Australia: "The wheat
crop of Australia for the coming harvest Is short
Ii mnst be remem bered that the seasons here are
opposite from ours, the cereal year beginning ana
ending about the Ist OF July, in the United
States begins and ends about January /. This
year of which 1 now writing, will end July
] next, or as far wheat alone is concerned, say
April next. The wheat crop OF Australasla, as
estimated by the most careful observers, faiis so
short of the usual d to reduce Australasia from
er position as the sixth wheat-e porting country
on The globe TO about the eleventh wheat-import-
ing country. .,o
From being an exporter OF about 2 0OO,Oo0
bushels per year australasia will have TO import not
far from 5000. 600 TO supply the deficiency from
short crops This misfortune to Australasia VIII De
Of considerable benefit TO our people. not only be-
cause the United States Will supply the chief part
of the nearly $500. .000 bushels deficiency, but be-
cause she will also supply large part OF the
worlds deficiency, caused by the withholding of
the l20OO, 600 usuSly furnished by Australasia
Then, in the competitive markets OF the world,
Australasis'% short crop makes "a difference OF
about 100000 bushels. With failure in India
and short crop throughout Europe this will be no
trfiing advantage 10 the wueat-growers OF the
limited States.p

wheeIbarrow Instead of Knapsack.

Major Padrin of the Italian army has
invented very ingenious contrivance,
which is designed to supersede the KNAPP
sack. He has invented vehicle to which
he has given the name of the cvclosac, or
the sack on wheels. On this will be car
ried The baggage of two soldiers, and the
uprights of the tent will be used to con-
vert it into sort of wheel barrow, which
the soldier can drag behind him when
ascending or push before him when de-
scending. The two soldiers will take it
turn about to push or draw the cyclosac.
and it is contended that this arrangement
will not merely enable the troops to
march much longer distances, but to
fight much better on the field OF battle,
being relieved of all impediments. which
can be left in these light wheelbarrows in
the erear.-Philadelphia Record.
Very old people need from a third to
half as much food as when in their prime.
