Seems as il consumption always
picks out the brightest and best.
Fully one-siXth OF all the deaths
that occur III the world are caused
10y consumption. Many things
were once considered imp JSsiblc.
Ii would be strange If medical sci
encc did not make some progress.
The telegraph and telephone, the
photograph, the electric light
all were once impossible, ana once
it was impossible To cure con-
sumption. That was before the
time OF DR.. Pierce's Golden Mrdl-
cal Discovery. Taken according
10 directions, this standard rem
cdy will cure 9S per cent. OF all
cases Of consumption. ConSump-
ton is caused and fostcred by i'm
purity in the flood. Ii is cured by
purity and richness in the blood
surely, certainly cured by the
"Medical Discovery" 1t builds
up solid healthy flesh and viSor-
Gus strength.

Gladiolus in Pots,

Bulbs of this famous summer flower
are in the market, and if a few Of
them are pOtted now they will bloom in
early spring in the pots, or may be
transplanted to the open ground as soon
as the weather becomes settled, where
they will bloom in a few weeks. The
soil should be rich and contain Consid-
cradle sand. A pot four inches in dl-
ameter is about right for medium
sized bulb Fill the pot half full Of rich
soil after having put in the bottom a
few pieces Of broken pot for drainage,
and then a tablespoonful of pure sand
on which to set the bulb and cover with
the rich soil to the rim of the pot
Set the pot in COOL dark room for a
few weeks, until the bulb has thoroughly
rooted. When the top has grown an
incn or two then bring the pot into the
light of the window of room mod
erately warm, and as the plant grows
support it with stakes. Even IL lC should
not bloom in the house it will add a
pleasing form of green to the window,
and set in the open ground in May will
bloom long before midsummer.

The Beautiful Dahlia.

Although the dahlia as a species has
been grown in many parts of this coun-
try and Europe Tor years, 1t is only
recently that hybridizers have turned
their attention to the flower and pro-
duced the exquisite forms Of both single
and double flowers we now have. There
is hardly any other pant so easily grown
that gives such great satisfaction on
good soil as the dahlia, and 1t stands
unequalled as a producer of great masses
Of gorgeous-hued blooms from midsum-
mer until cut off by frost in the fall
The improved methods Of culture give
bushy plant instead of long slender
one which must be staked. The roots
may be planted as soon as the frost
is out of the ground in the spring, The
soil should be fairly rich, thoroughly
cultivated and kept free from weeds

can tell whether or not his business is

Of the expenses and receipts in each

ments is falling behind the cause is at
once searched out and the remedy APP
piled. In short, the successful merchant
knows at all times how his business
stands. How many dairymen can say
the same thing? Is your herd giving
you, per head, $500 or 5000 pounds OF

Farners, Mail.

A recent dispatch from Washington
makes the following statement regard
ing rural mail service:
The benefits derived from the extern
sion of the rural free delivery OF mail
matter, 1t Is expected, will be increased
as soon as authority can be obtained
from Congress on the subject. At the
request of the House pOstofflce commit
tee First Assistant Postmaster General
Heath has in preparation an amendment
to the service appropriation bill giving
to carriers in rural districts authority
to receive cash and obtain money orders
for customers, and to receipt for and
deliver registered letters. This addi-
tional duty can be readily performed by
the carriers, who WILL If the scheme is
put into. operation, become travelling
postotices." The country people, there
fore, will have nearly all the benefits
enjoyed by the residents of the city in
this regard, as the carriers are now per-
mitted to carry postal cards and stamped
envelopes for sale. Should the PROPOSE
ton work well the department will be
enabled to abolish many of the small
pOstottices along star routes.
