Fight In q Tree,

One of the most remarkable episodes
In connection with a recent flood &C.
Cured on the marshes at Hamgreen,
below Upchurch, near Sittingbourne.
a man was overtaken by the rush of
tidal waters, and, for safety, he sought
refuge in a tree. He hadn't been long
there before he was Mortified to find
a number of rats swimming toward
him. The rats were excited by being
driven from their haunts, and they
made for the tree with a view of seek
ing the same shelter that the man en-
joyed. Not caring to come to close
quarters with the rodents, the man took
off one of his heavily nailed boots, and
with this formidable weapon prepared
to give battle. AS fast as the rats came
to the tree they were beaten back into
the water, and so the fight continued
until the creatures were either killed
outright or compelled to seek resting
place elsewhere. The victor then put
On his boot and when the waters had re-
ceded sufficiently he descended from his
perch and made the best of his way
homeward.-London Telegraph.

FINE MILITARY ROAD.
Was Genuine Surprise to
Gen. Roy Stone.

Gen. Roy Stone, of Pennsylvania,
who is with the army in Puerto Rico, is
the government good roads expert.
Before the war he was officially en-
gagged in advancing the interests of
the good roads movement, and was
sent away with the army with a view
to bringing his expert knowledge to
bear upon the problem of preparing
the highways for the transportation
of our army supplies.
The condition of the so-called roads
in Cuba was what might have been ex-
pected under Spanish administration.
But delightful surprise awaited Gen.
Stone in Puerto Rico. He was obliged
to make a accommodating expedition
into the mountains north of Ponce,
and in carrying out that purpose he
found a splendid military road, built
by the Spaniards, running up the
mountains to a height of 5000 feet,
part of the way hewn out of solid rock
and throughout displaying the finest
engineering skill. Up this fine high
way the vehicles of the party of Of
ficers and correspondents were drawn
by native ponies who went at gallop
Nothing more creditable to the
Spaniards has been found in Cuba or
Puerto Rico during the war. The ex-
cursion must have been especially
gratifying to Gen. Stone, and he may
be depended upon to make the Ameri-
can public acquainted with the facts
regarding this piece of road engineer
ing when he returns.
One of the incidents which marked
this reconnaissance was the discovery
at the mountain town of Adjuntas of
a rich Englishman who had been there
over so years, whose children spoke
only Spanish and French, and who had
almost forgotten his native speech.
His delight over the coming of English
speaking visitors found expression in
cordial invitation to the party to
dine with him, while the natives
showed their qualification over the
appearance of the Americans by hoist
ing flags and cheering the visitors.
The scenery in the mountains north
of Ponce is described as being less bold
but as beautiful as that of the Alps.
Evidently after matters have been
settled down in Puerto Rico that is
land will become a favorite resort Of
American tourists.-Rochester Demo

FIVE MEN INJURED.
accident to q Travelling Crane at Neville
Island, Pa, Creates Havoc Among
the Workmen.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Sept. 22.-Five men
were injured at the new government
dam at Neville island, near Corapolis,
Pa, by the breaking of a large travel
ing crane. Two of the men are in a
critical condition and may die. Theil
names are:
NJ. Evans, Montour Junction.
Noah Stanley, Evansville, Ind.
Martin Beck, Wallsburg, w. Va.
John Young, Evansville, Ind.
William White, Pittsburgh.
Evans and Stanley are injured in,
ternally, and are not expected to re-
cover.
The accident was caused by the
breaking of steel guy line of the
crane, which precipitated large der
rick, 60 feet above the crane, to the
ground. In it's descent the derrick
tore away the supports of the crane,
which crashed down upon the work
men. A huge block of stone, which
was being raised when the guy line
broke, fell distance of IS feet among
a group of workmen, but. fortunately
the men ran for their lives, and al
but five escaped injury.

Some have long contended that lu-

man body. During recent experiment
in a dark room several persons placed
their fingers for about 20 minutes on

After the exposure the plate was de-
veloped in the usual way. The fingers,
lines of the hand and the pores of the
skin were all reproduced, and, what is
of more interest, a zone or halo q third
of an inch wide surrounded the fingers.
This was taken as proof that we live in

Sz~~

with DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie. He coaxed his granddaughter to get
him a box of the pills. After that box had
been used he secured another. In three
weeks he began to feel little life in his arm;
at the end of four he could move his fingers
at the end of two months he could walk, and
in three months he could shave himself with
the injured hand.
As he told his story in the Herald office,
he looked the perfect picture of health. He
carries a box of the pills in his pocket, and
whenever he does not feel just right, he
takes them. They cured him after doctors
had given him up, and his death was daily
expected.
All the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore shat
tered nerves are contained, in a condensed
form, in DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. They are an unfailing specific for
such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neural
gia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after
effects of Ia grippe, palpitation of the heart,
pale and sallow compilations, all forms of
weakness either in male or female.

A Dyspeptic's daily diet.

Dyspepsia is one of the most prevalent OF
diseases. Thousands of people suffer from
it in a more or less aggravated form. Few
diseases are more painful to the individual
or more far reaching in their effects ON
human life and happiness. What the dys-
peptic needs is not local treatment, not
mere temporary stimulus. The real need
is the toning up of the entire system. For
tify the system and it will do its own fight

disease. The success of DR.. Ayers Sarsa-

Where there is no beet sugar factory
farmers who have dairy herds and no
