A VI onderful Liver Cure.

The manager of the electrical exposi-
ton in Philadelphia asked Mr.. Edison
to visit the show and give a short talk
IN some electrical subject, or if he found
it inconvenient to do SO to send on a
photographic cylinder setting forth
some of his latest ideas of electrical in
terest. Mr.. Edison complied in his own
way with the latter request, and in do
ing Sc while emitting any reference to
electricity produced an electrical effect
upon the management and the auditors
by his contribution. 1t was as follows:
MY DEAR MARKs-You asked me to send you
D photographic cylinder for your lecture and
to say a few words to the audience. l do not
think the audience would take any interest in
dry scientific subjects, but perhaps they might
be interested in a little story that a man sent
me on a photographic cylinder the other day
from San Francisco.
In the year 1878 a man from Massachusetts
came to California with a chronic liver com
plant. He searched all over the coast for a
mineral spring to cure the disease. and finally
he found down in the San Joaquin valley a
spring the waters of which almost instantly
cured him. He %thereupon started a santa
rum, and people from all over the world came
and were quickly cured.
Last year this man died, and so powerful
had been the action of the waters that they
had to take his liver out and kill it with q
club. Yours truly, EDISON.

There is an enterprising Liverpool

a possible customer might ask for.
One day a customer entered the shop
and asked if he had any trousers made

Certainly" replied the merchant.

"Dress trousers, :" said the man. "The
best you've got"
Hurrying into the rear of the store,
the enterprising merchant snatched up
a pair Of trousers and shipped off the
right leg with a pair of scissors. Hastily
turning under the edges, he presented
them to the customer.

A PROFITABLE INDUSTRY.
Description of the Fruitgrowing Belt
of Montana.

w. E. Pyne, general agent of the
Missoula Orchard and improvement
company is in the city for a few
days. Mr.. Pyne is the gentleman
who presented the excellent display
of Montana grown fruit at the Hotel
Grand, Great Falls, through the
months of September and October,
many of the citizens of Neihart hav-
ing seen the exhibit. The company
which he represents owns and cult
Yates a tract of 4SO acres of choice
orchard land in the famous and we'll
favored Bitter Root Valley, near
Florence, Montana, adjacent to the
line of the N. P. railway and twenty
miles from the city of Missoula.
The site is admirably adapted to the
production of standard grades of
fruit such as apples, pears, peaches,
plums, cherries, grapes, besides the
m~erchantable varieties of smaller
fruits.
The Missoula Orchard and I'm
provement company is incorporated
and is backed by thoroughly sub
~stantial men whose standing in bus
mess is unquestioned. The associa-
ton is cooperative, and each stock
holder shares in the profits of the
business from the date that the or
chards begin to yield. Its promul-
gators have wisely proited by the
experiences of other cooperative as
sociations, and have started and
maintained the enterprise free from
debt. The amount of stock possible
to be obtained by any one investor
is so limited that the control Of the
business cannot be gained by any
small number of men.
BY the very nature of things, the
cultivation of fruit in Montana as an
? industry can never be overdone.
The state can never suffer from over
production of fruit, because the Sec
a tons available for such culture are
+ too limited. Hence fruit raising in
Montana will always be profitable,
and the of good fruit land
will aver have a fruitful and increas-
= ing source of income.
A talk with Mr.. Pyne is highly in
t teresting and instructive, as he is
i, we'll informed and experienced in
the art of horticulture in Montana
having devoted about ten years tc
practical orchard and nursery work

Z. may be relied upon. Prominent
! business men of Great Falls have
!, investigated this matter, and visited
the orchard, thoroughly ~acquainting

all such give Mr.. Pyne and his com
. pany a high recommendation.
