The Miami Chief thinks that,
snow it the tune to sell your cat
tie and ranch. Remember that
YOU can "always buy but you
rcannot always sell" The time
to sell is when prices are away up
like they are now and the way to
get rich is to buy when prices are
away down. Big crops do not
come every year, and the price OF
cattle and ranches are more likly
to go down than they are up
within the next IL months. Now
Is the time to unload, but do not
hold up for fancy prices and ruin
your sale"
OF course taking n one sided
view of matters the above is all
very we'll, but prices are not high
Mt present and the UeXt three or
four years will he profit makers to
every ranchman WHO handles his
business lnteilisently. Feed Is
plenty and there is no need of
giving away a profit already in
sight, even if prices are fur and
tempting. Sell your cattle but
hold on to your ranch property

BLACK LEG.

While Blackleg is so fatal after
1t has once taken hold. it is prob
ubly one of the eusl st OF all ami
NAL diseases TO prevent: and 1t Is
entirely within the bounds ot
truth to say that no farmer. ranch
man or catlleowner need fear any
loss from Blackleg if lie will go to
the slight trouble and expense
necessary for its prevention.
This is done by vaccinating your
stock with Pasteur Blackleg Vac
cine. the original and perfect pre-
ventive remedy for Blackleg, and
which has been used so eXten
slvely and successively IN the
United States and Canada since
1895. Since that time it has been
put to test by some Of the largest
dealers and the results were all
that could be asked.

HE MUST LIVE.
A Patient Who Was Hound to Lao.
Long Enough to Draw His
Pension.

1t would be in vain to attempt to
describe the sympathy for the poor and
suffering which William Stokes could
throw into his voice, says his biogra-
pher. One of the stories he used to tell
is of peculiar interest, not only for its
revelation of human kindness, but as
proof of the power of the will in pro.
longing life.
An old pensioner was patient OF
Stokes in the Meath hospital. His life
was despaired of, and in fact his death
was hourly expected. One morning
having the patients to care for, and
believing that the pensioner was un-
conscious and past help, DR.. Stokes
passed his bed without stopping. The
patient was greatly distressed and cried
out:
Don't pass me by, docther; you
must keep me alive for four days"
I'VE will keep you as long as we can,
my poor fellow" answered Stokes:
''but why for four days particularly?
Because" was the reply, "my pen
sion will be due then, and | want the
money for my wife and children. Don't
give me anything to make me sleep, for
II l. sleep 1 shall die"
On the third day after this, to the
amazement of Stokes and the others,
the patient was still breathing. On
the morning of the fourth day he was
alive and conscious, and on entering
the ward, Stokes saw him holding in
his hand the certificate which required
signature. As the doctor drew near the
dying man gasped:
Sign, sign!"
The doctor quickly complied, and the
man sank back exhausted, and within
n few minutes crossed his hands over
his breast and said: "The Lord have
mercy on my soul,' and quietly
breathed his last.-Youth's Companion.

A GALLANT DEED.
How Ensign Gherardi
Saved Almost
$50 Lives.
THREW OUT THE LIFE LINE.
Story of Great Hurricane
That Swept Porto
Rico.
THREW OUT THE LIFE LINE.

Washington, Nov 1.-THE navy de-
partment today gave out a circumstan-
tial account of the conspicuous gallant
ry of Ensign w. r. Gherardi, during the
recent terrific cyclone which swept
across Porto Rico. 1t was forwarded
by Capt. Snow commanding the Unit
ed States naval station at San Juan
Capt. Snow called attention to the
fact that the ensign was in the naval
hospital at New York as a result of the
exposure and hardship undergone at
that time. Ensign Gherardi twice be-
fore has been mentioned for conspic-
uous gallantry.
The statement forwarded to the de-
partment shows that when the storm
was at its height, Lieut.. Gherardi and
j. j. Jiminez, a civil engineer, ran along
the beach to point nearest the ship
ping which was dragging anchors
through the terrific force Of the wind.
The schooner Conception, loaded with
$50 emigrants from San Domingo, and
the steamer Vasco were in great dis
tress. The people were jumping over
board from the schooner.
Gherar1i plunged into the water and
began dragging the unfortunates
ashore. He and Jiminez rescued near
ly $50 persons. Six would not leave the
schooner and were drowned, the vessel
going to pieces. The two men, with
others, then formed a life line, headed
by Gherardi, and got hold of line from
the Vasco and fastened it to a tree.
The crew climbed along this line to
shore

London, Nov. 1.-THE admiralty an
nounced this evening the arrival at
Cape Town today of the troopship Ar
cana, with a battalion of the Argyle
and Sutherland Highlanders (the Prin-
cess Louise's regimenU, bringing the
reinforcements up to 23,5OO.
This force, with that already between
Estcourt and Durham, is considered
sufficient to enable Gen. Hinyard to
advance and to take the aggressive
against the Beers south of Ladysmith.
According to the latest adVices. La
dysmith is holding out satisfactorily,
everything having been well up to
Wednesday. In view of the Boer de-
struction of bridges, the war office has
issued orders for the shipment of a
quantity of bridge work between this
and the end of the year. Advices
from Sululand testify to the growing
uneasiness of British residents, whose
stores are looted by the Beers, with
the result that the Sulus themselves
are growing insolent
A dispatch from Laurence Marques
says: "A Pretoria newspaper an
nounced last Wednesday that 1000
burghers had left Gen. Joubert's force
around Ladysmith TO join Command
ant Botha's force near Estcourt, with
view to assisting to intercept the
British advance to the relief of Lady
smith.
Gen. Lucas, the Free State COM
mander has asserted in the course of
an interview that he is convinced that
the battle of Elandslaagte will be the
first and last Boer defeat of the war.
