About one month ago my child,
which is fifteen months old, had an
attack of diarrhoea accompanied by
vomiting. ! gave it such remedies as
are usually given in such cases, but as
nothing gave relief, we sent for ply
stefan and it was under his care for a
week. At tins time the child had
been sick for about ten days and was
having about twenty-five operations of
the bowels every twelve hours, and we
were convinced that unless it soon ob.
tanned relief it would not live. Cham

to the strawberry crop and other tender
plants, in few exposed localities
During the second week the rainfall
was abundant, well distributed and very
timely. In Juneau, Tay Ior and Lincoln
counties the rainfall during the week
was in excess Of three inches. Gener-
ally, however, the rains were in the
form of frequent gentle showres, accom-
panied by thunderstorms. with compar-
atively little washing and no hail. In
the southern portion of the state these
rains were of the greatest benefit. as
the growth of vegetation in that section
was being somewhat retarded by lack
Of moisture. Corn made exceptionally
rapid growth during the week, under
the favorable conditions of high tenn
perature and liberal moisture. Much
of the tobacco crop was set during the
week, the ample moisture placing the
soil in excellent condition to give the
plants a good start. There was but
little rain during the third week, except
in the southwestern counties. Else
where the weather was favorable for the
working of corn and harvesting of
clover. The heavy rains on the 24th
and 25th, especially N the southern
portion of the state, did considerable
damage by washing cornfelds and beat
ing down grain. In Lafayette, Rock
and WaIuorfb countinc roips in ovcoCC
of six inches occurred on these dates.
a considerable amount of clover in
these counties had been cut and some
loss resulted. For the remainder of the
state the conditions were favorable and
all crops made rapid advancement.
At the end of the month corn had
been generally worked for the last time
and in many sections was reported to be
farther advanced than usual at that
date. Winter wheat and rye were
ripening rapidly and in the southern
counties a portion of the crop mas
already been harvested. These crops
are exceptionally good. Oats and bar
ley were filling we'll and gave promise
of good crops. The harvesting of clover
was progressing. the crop being very
heavy, which caused some difficulty in
curing. Potatoes were doing well and
some Of the early varieties we're ready
for market. Fruit Of all kinds WAS very
and pastures exceptionally
good.

CYR, THE INVINCl8LE..
Strongest Man Who Ever Lived, Now With
the Robinson Shows.

Louis Cyr, the Canadian strong man,
is not only the strongest human being
in the world today, but he is undoubt-
edly the most powerful man of which
history has preserved any record.
There have been many strong men. and
many men of remarkable physical de-
velopment, but in almost every instance
the development of one set Of muscles
has been accomplished at the expense
of some other part Of the body. 1t is
no eXaggeration to say that Louis Cyr is
a composite of all the greatest strong
men of history. Every attribute con-
tributing to muscular power he possesses
in perfection. He is all Apollo in figure,
as we'll as a Hercules IN strength, and it
is doubtful whether the world has ever
produced or will ever produce again, so
perfect. a physical man. Mr.. Cyr's
height is feet, 103 inches; his weight
Is 2S5 pounds; his shoulder measure
ment is q! inches; neck, % inches;
waist, 81 inches; biceps, 215 inches;
forearm, 10 inches, and thigh 29& inches.
No student Of anatomy need be told
that these are remarkable measure
ments The breadth of the shoulders
twice that of an ordinary man-is
alone sufficient to evoke wonder and
admiration. But Mr.. Cyr is not only a
remarkably muscular man, he is a man
of startling strength and lifting power
as we'll. The New York Clipper Annual
and other authorities unhesitatingly
give him the palm as the record-breaker
of the world. Think Of a man who can
lift 5529 pounds with one, little finger;
think of man who can lift 987 pounds
with one arm; think Of an athlete who
can raise 4,30O pounds-over two tons
on his shoulders. Such figures seem
incredible; and yet Mr.. Cyr has and
does accomplish these astounding feats.
| Tasks that compel other men to exert
their utmost strength is play for this
| herculean athlete, and he lifts an ele-
phant as readily as most strong men
| nanQl6 GumD-DGll. a forfeit OF GZ0,UUl
is offered for bis equal anywhere on
earth. Among the many remarkable
feats which Mr.. Cyr will perform during
his visit to this city with the John Rob-
inson Greatest of all shows, at Grand
Rapids, Wednesday, July p, is the bal
ancing of twenty-five full-groWn men
upon platform, supported upon his
massive shoulders. Such feat seems
to be so far beyond the possibility Of
human accomplishment that it is diff
cult to believe until it has been seen
and once seen 1t will be remembered
for lifetime as the most amazing cXtli-
bition of strength ever accomplished by
an athlete either in this or any other
age Mr.. Cyr Is assisted in his heroic
performance by Horace Barre, the
French Samson, whose feats of sttength
have given him international fame. 4
hundred other higb-clasS acts, a supert
menagerie, a real Roman hippOdrome
and scores of special features give the
John Robinson Show an easy superiority
over all competitors.

Review of Crop Conditions in June.

The condition of all crops at the open
ing of June was remarkably good, and
by the end of the first week of the
month winter wheat and rye had begun
TO head, corn had attained good stand
clover was beginning to blossom, and
potatoes were coming up well. The
weather conditions throughout the
month were very favorable for con-
tinuation of the excellent growth made
during the preceding months. The
rainfall was ample and we'll distributed
throughout the state, and the tempera-
ture was about normal. There was but
little rainfall during the first week and
advantage was taken of tie pleasant
weather to finish complaining and to
replant where necessary. The germin-
alton Of corn was, however, exception
ally good and replantiny was only nee
essary on sod fields, where there had
been some damage done by cut worms.
Light frosts occurred in some of the
western counties early in the month,
which resulted III considerable damage

a mans condition depends almost
entirely upon himself. Luck is but a
small factor to most men in attaining
wealth. Industry, perseverance and
good Judgment make the foundation
upon which man builds well. The

men has been upon farm. Opportu-
mites are as good at present as they
have been in the past. Fine hard

reasonable figures and on easy terms.
