BIeqe ding Piles

And all other forms of this common
and often dangerous disease readily cur
ed without pain or Inconvenience
Thousands of men and women are af-
ficted with some sort of piles. without
either knowing the exact nature of the
trouble, or knowing 1T. are careless
enough to allow 1t to run without TAX
ing the simple means offered for a rad
ica1 cure.
The failure of salves and ointments To
permanently cure piles has led many to
believe the only cure to be a surgical
operation.
Surgical operations are dangerous TO
life and moreover not often entirely sue
cessful, and at this time are no longer
used by the best physicians or recon-
mended by them.
The safest and surest way to cure any
case of piles. whether blind bleeding
or protruding, is to use the Pyramid Pile
cure, composed of healing vegetable oils
and absolutely free from mineral poisons
and opiates. The following letter from
Pittsburg gentleman. a severe sufferer
from bleeding piles. gives some idea of
the prompt effectual character of this
pile cure He writes:

to let you know that l did not sleep for
three months except for short time

pUTNEY, England. March 25.-The fif-
ty-siXth annual boat race between crews
representing the Universities of oxford
and Cambridge rowed today over the
usual course from Putney to Mortlake,
a distance of about four and a quarter
miles. and was won by Cambridge for
the first time in ten years. Cambridge
now has twenty-four out of fiftysix
races rowed to her credit.
The light blues, as cabled yesterday,
were the favorites in the betting, the
odds then being IL to on Cambridge,
though this was regarded as extrava-
giant The crews were sent off at 1858
p. m.
The weather was bright and slightly
warmer. which attracted great crowds
#of people to the boat race. When the
Cambridge crew won the toss the
chances of victory were practically as
sured.
A capital start was effected. Both
crews struck the water sharply, but
Cambridge was first off, rowing twenty
one strokes during the first half minute.
At the Dukes Head they led slightly.
They were pulling strongly and clearly
and increased their lead to half length
off Claspers boat house. Gold, without
quickening his stroke, but pulling with
determination, drew up at Walden's,
and for a time Oxford led slightly.
Cambridge, who had been rowing "a,
had increased the stroke to Sc, but the
light blues did not draw level until Har-
rods. and when they reached Hammers
NTH they led by half a length. There,
anticipated, rough water was encoun-
tered and Colds workmanship stood
him in good stead.

tanee, Cambridge was barely cleared. 1t

fords began to show signs of distress

Every man in the Oxford boat, except
the reboutabe stroke. appeared to have
suffered terribly. The victory of Cam

An attempt was made at 11:3O last
night to burn the old Bromley barn on
the corner Of Third and Exchange. one
of the landmarks of the city.
Edward Bodies reported the attempt to
the central police station. He was stand
ing on Exchange street near Eagle at the
time and saw two men make their wav
down the street near the barn. One of
them carried can under his arm and
the actions of the pair led him to suspect
That something was wrong The men
turned In behind the barn and soon came
out again, making off down West Third
in great haste. Almost immediately
flames were visible coming from the rear
Of the barn.
Bodies at once notified officer Scanne,
and the two reached the barn before the
blaze had attained any Roadway. The
fire was soon extinguished
The barn contained several buggfes and

The Uses of Florida Moss.

The freeze of this year killed the
Florida moss. People who do not rec
OgniZe what this means must think
that this somber gray drapery Of the
Southern forests gives one hundred
bales a week of ''moss hair'' to the
Northern upholsterers from the little
village of MicanOpy, Fla, alone, and
other factories in the State yield many
times as much, and This is only about
one-half of the weight of the moss
when taken from the trees. The other
half is the useless envelope to the in
ner and valuable hair. There is a
mistaken idea as to how the outer
portion of the moss is removed. 1t Is
generally supposed that the covering
is removed by chemicals or by passing
through some ingenious stripping ma
chine. The latter would be too ex-
pensive, and the former open to the

danger of injuring the natural elastic
ity of the fiber.
The moss when first gathered is
greenish-gray. When killed by frost
or lack of proper sustenance it is
easily distinguished from the live
moss. 1t turns gray, and if bitten
feels soft, while the live moss
''crunches" between the teeth. But
the outer covering will remain on
either the dead Or fresh moss for
months. If the moss, either alive or
killed, is simply piled in heaps in a
moist place and covered with muck
Or sand, it soon begins to ferment.
The temperature of the interior of the
heap rises to a point too hot for the
hand to bear, and, if not checked, it
keeps heating till too hot to walk over.
But his stage means damage to the
interior hair and must be avoided.
Properly conducted, the fermentation
means the complete destruction of the
outer skin, and the moss is left duly
'colored," i. e., showing the dark
brown color of the hair.
1t reaches this stage in the hands of
the pickers, who then deliver 1T in
loose wagOnloads, like hay, to the
gins. There are about fifty of these
ginning establishments in the State

constructed as cheaply ais possible and

burning on cold nights, and had
thus prepared for my orange trees
could have' saved them Last winter
by keeping the lamps burning during
one day and three nights.
The first cost of this box, or the lum-
Der in it, will not exceed 80 cents per
tree, and the material would last for
many years. This slice would be large
enough for the next two years. After
that more sections can be made and
the houses enlarged by placing six or
eight of these four-feet sections around
each tree. And by and by, when the
trees get large, the sections will have
to be made longer, say twelve feet. In
The spring two men will easily take
down and pile up fifty of these houses
in a day, and in the fall and winter
put them up in about the same time.
This plan is more available than the
tent plan, because it is cheaper and
more durable; and as the trees get
larger the houses can also be enlarged
more easily than can the TENTS. To
construct a tent of eight-ounce duck
for each tree would be too expensive
for general use; small farmers would
NOT have the means for this purpose.
A tent of this material large enough
for two or three-year-old bud from
the old stump would not cost less than
So per tent, and not be so substantial
or durable as the wooden structure.
With good padding of confined air in
a close box, one ordinary lamp would
be sufficient to save the tree during a
very cold or windy blizzard.
think it quite possible that Florida
may yet come to the front as a great
orange producing State, and make
more good money to her actual cfti-
zens than she did when ''arrayed in
all her glory" And it will be when
farmers generally, in addition to other
crops, will plant and save from freez-
lily, ny CII0 U0SSU duu Cu6Hp6SL u1CuOu,
just as many trees as their circum-
stances will allow. One man may
only be able to protect ten trees; these
four years from the stump should
bring him at least $40 per tree. His
neighbor may be able to save twenty
five, and another fifty, and so on. And
it would swell up in to a mighty ag
gregate and bring millions into the
State and to the pocket of class of
people who would send it right ont
into the avenues of trade, and thus
the benefits would be incalculable. It
was the large grower who glutted the
market, and broke the price before the
freeze of 1895; and if the common peo-
pie will adopt some means of protec-
ton that will be absolutely safe then
lit will be great blessing if we shall
never have a one-hundred or twO-hun-
dred acre grove in the State again

tically the same degree of cold.
With regard to the conditions con-
tributing to the formation of these
severe colo waves, it is unnecessary to
speak. may say that tire best thought
of the day is against the idea OF eli
matte change.
We are willing to accord man great
credit for his mastery strides during
the past half century, but we can con-
ceive of no act on his part whereby
will result a permanent change in the
effects of solar energy upon on planet.
TO admit that the clearing of forests,
for instance. affects our climate, would
be placing in the hands of man the
destiny of sections, States, countries
and nations. While we admit that the
effects of defOresta ton upon climate
may be an open question, We accept
the remarks of Professor Moore who
said: Broadly speaking, the variation
of insulation from day to night and
declination of the sum- is the greatest
controlling agent of climate"

have yet to learn many things con-
corning the mechanics of storm fOrma
ton, both cyclOnic and anti-cyclOnic.
AS to the origin of the severe cold
waves, we know they result from a
shifting of the earth's atmosphere,
which piles UP so to speak, great pres
ure areas over the continental north
west, resulting in the winds blowing
from a colder area toward a section of
higher temperature; in other words,
from sections where the barometer lis
high towards areas of low pressure.
In these storms which we designate
as anti-cyclonic the cold air is thrown
off from the center or crest of the high
pressure in all directions, ais the storm
moves easterly in keeping with the ro-
tatiOn of the earth. Experience has
taught us that, with an extended area
of high pressure over the Northwest, a
very feeble Gulf storm, will greatly
augment the effects of even moderate
cold wave over the South Atlantic.
These were the conditions last Feb
ruary, resulting in the phenOmenally
cold weather.
We know that storms form at an ele-
walton considerably above us, and if
the time arrives when we shall be able
to chart the great aerial ocean, our per-
centage of Notifications shall receive
decided impetus.
Viewing matters as they present
themselves, we find that destructive
cold waves have required within the
short space of four years February,
1895 to February, 1899, and that the
longest period of immunity has been
less than twenty years. With these
facts before us, it would seem the
work of supererogation to admOnish
you to prepare for possible contingent

Feasible Protection for Orange Trees.

Feasible Protection for Orange Trees.
Several plans have been submitted
by various parties for saving orange
trees from the effects of low tempera
lures, and while all may be practical
under certain condi tions, I think the
one here submitter will be found the
most available. The plan of numerous
log fires in an open grove is only eff
fectual in a calm or still freeze, and
quite expensive for wood; and if gen
orally followed would soon do more in
jury to the State than the freezes, by
denuding the forest lands. And the
expense of covering in a whole grove
with boards or canvass sufficiently
close to insure still or dead air during
a blizzard is also beyond the reach Of
the average farmer or orange grower
Therefore, 1 would suggest a plan
cheaper and sure to save the trees, a
plan by which have been saving my
glIava trees through very severe
freezes. And as orange trees are
much harder than guava trees, it can
not fail to be successful. I get a
cheap class of cypress boards that cost
me 81 per thousand, and nail them
into sections four feet wide and eight
feet long, with battens across at top
and bottom. Then set them up on
end around the tree and nail them to-
gether ait the corners, making a little
DOLLHOUSE, four feet square and eight
feet high. Over the top, during a cold
spell. place old sacks or canvass. At

are not in the best taste, but they are
necessary at times, to impress us with
our own good fortune. We have had

you the fact that the question Of teIn-
peruture is of less Importance than any
other factor or elemnt entering into a
discussion of successful agriculture or
horticulture. The dominating, essen

of rainfall. This we genrally have in
