PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
When person gets sick abed with fever,
he invariably sends for the family physi-
clan, but the average person who is af-
ficted with some nervous, chi onic or lin
gering affection, knows that his family
doctor does not make a speciality of treat
ing such cases, does not know how to
cure them, in fact, and it Is therefore true
that not one in a hundred persons thus
afflicted knows what to do or what doctor
to apply for treatment and cure. They
do not want to continue to suffer; indeed,
they urgently desire to get back their
health; but they cannot afford to paw the
big fees charged by eminent specialists,
and SO they remain uncertain what to do.
To such the offer of the famous specia list,
DR.. Greene of 35 West 18th ST., New York
City, who has the largest practice and
most successful treatment for diseases the
world has ever known through his system
of cure by harmless vegetable remedies,
to give consultation and advice to all
without fee and absolutely free of charges,
places sure cure within reach of every
body and should be taken advantage of
at once by sufferers, whatever their COM
plants. One of DIR. Greene's maj velous
medical discoveries, Dr. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, has made HE
name famous all over the world, and his
investigations and vast experiences have
developed curative medicines for every
phase of disease. If you do not know
what to do, or If you have failed to be
cured, consult DIR. Greene at once. If
you cannot call, write to him freely and
fully about your case. He will give your
case every consideration, write you ex-
planning your exact condition and give
you advice just what to do to be cured
All this costs you nothing, and we advise
you to write him Immediately.

DARBY DEVIL-TALES.

2 The people of the Southern States
got their fairy tales at first hand, and
were fortunate. The old mammies''
and patriarchs changed their princes
and princesses in terrapins and turtles.
A squint eyed niger with hoof
took the place of dragon, and the
rabbits foot came to be charm more
powerful than Aladdin's lamp, or the
wishing-ri of the Morse maidens.
1t was Uncle Remus who first showed
what wealth of folklore was grow
ing up all unnoticed within our own
gates. 1t was a literature that COM
bined the simplicity, freedom, and
spontaneity that entered into the
making of Hans Christian Anderson
Fairy Tales or the Arabian Nights.

NEW USE FOR CORN STALKS.

A series of experiments which have
been carried on for some time by the
Agricultural Department has de-
veloped new use for corn stalks,
from which very valuable horse and
cattle food can be made.
The department has done a great
deal of work with corn stalks during
the last year and has developed sever
al valuable uses for them, namely,
coffer-dam packing for warships, a
high grade of writing paper, the basis
for a smokeless powder superior to the
picric acid powders and number of
other uses.
The new cattle food is made by
grinding the dry corn stalks, leaves
and tops to powder and mixing il
with blood or molasses or both. That
is pressed into thin cakes under &
hydraulic press, and can be shipped
as easily as bricks or cord wood. Fol
feeding it is broken up and mixed
with water.
