MAN IS CHANGING NATURE,
A Race of HOrnless Cattle May Soon


A Race of Hornless Cattle May Soon
BE Developed.
Civilization is transforming nature in
surprising ways. The dehorning of
cattle is an example, as the practice is
gaining favor so rapidly that hornless
cattle may be expected soon to become
the rule rather than the exception
The first objections were that it is
cruel and unnatural. The early method
of dehorning with saw was undoubt-
cdly slow and painful, but specially
constructed clippers are now used that
often remove a horn in a single sec
ond, and with so little suffering that
feeding is continued as usual, and the
operation is really humane, the fire.
quent injuries in herds from goring be-
ing prevented. The horns have become
utterly useless, being no longer needed
as protection against natural enemies.
In calves less than three weeks old the
embryo horns can be removed with one
stroke of sharp knife, or they can
be treated with a. caustic sufficiently
powerful to destroy them.
For three years the Maine expert
ment station has dehorned calves by
rubbing the horns four or five times
with caustic potash. In every case but
one the operation has been successful,
the calf in the exception having
reached the age of IS days before treat
ment, with the result that dwarfed
horns an inch or an inch and a half long
were subsequently developed.-Boston

A CAPITAL by Accident.

Nature never intended Berlin for any
thing but provincial town. It has
been made into the capital of great
empire deliberately-of malice afore-
thought. 1t has, in fact, been victim
lied by favorable circumstances. TO
the stranger, there is nothing about it
that fascinates; nothing that excites
the imagination. 1t has neither the
architectural beauty of Vienna nor the
reckless gayety of Paris; neither the
vastness that surrounds London. It is
sprawling commercial town in the
middle of a sandy plain. A muddy and
most melancholy stream wanders I'M
DISTRACTED through the center of the
city as if rather ashamed of itself. To
the north and south are forests of pine
and plains of sand; to the east and west
are plains of sand and forests of pine

THEN HE + AIN / b.


One evening not long ago q st. joseph
young man, who is quite, well known in So
ciety,. started out to call on a young lady
who lives in the eastern part Of the city,
The young man had but recently met the
charmer and had never been to see her. ne
did not anticipate any difficulty, however,
in finding the young lady's home, as he had
received careful directions from those who
had been there. In due time he arrived in
the neighborhood in which the young lady
lived. he was undecided as to the exact
mouse ne was seeking, but after some hesita-
ton ne selected that which he felt positive
was the young lady's place of abode. A
ring OF the bell brought a big darby nanny
IT'S Miss, Gertrude il: ?" queried the caller.
Yes, sir; step in" was the answer, and
the young man was ushered into the parlor.
1t seems that he was too deeply engrossed
with anticipations of pleasure to follow to
make close scrutiny, else he would have OBJ.
served that surroundings were not just what
ne had reason to expect. After a few mo.
ments the young man was aroused by a
deep and powerful voice, Enthusiastically that
or the negro nanny, and it's tone left no
question of the relationship between the
speaker and the person called.
to see yo'."
In a moment "Gertie," who resembled the
ace OF spades in color, came into the room
and the young man fainted.-St. Joseph

MRS. F. A. DIXON.

Mrs. F. A. Dixon, assistant editress of tho
Kansas City,, Mo-, Sprig of Myrtle, had
catarrh. Being a woman actively engaged
in business it was very annoying. However,
her family remedy was Pe-ru-na, and from
it's use she experienced great relief Her
husband praises Pe-ru-na very highly and
says he considers it good investment to
keep it in his home.
Pe-ru-na enjoys national reputation as
.catarrh remedy. 1t is the only systemic
catarrh remedy yet devised. A thorough
course of Pe-ru-na eradicates catarrh from
the system. Its cures are permanent. 1t
thoroughly cures very old cases of chronic ca
tarrh that have resisted all other treatment.
I!thas cured cases Of twenty five years stand;
ing. People afflicted with catarrh should
begin course of Pe-ru-na at once. The
spring-time is the best season for this pur.
pose. The rigors of winter have passed,
with its chilling blast and freezing gales.
The blizzard is gone and in it's place the
balmy zephyrs of spring have come. A
short course of treatment with Pe-ru-na
now will work wonders. Now is the best
time. No set-backs from fresh colds, no
delays from unventilated rooms. People
Of high and low station recommend Pe-ru-na.
North, South, East and West use it as the
y supreme catarrh remedy of this generation.
Everybody should have copy Of Dr. Hart.
mans latest books on chronic catarrh. Sent
free by The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio.
