able to cure in all it's stages, and that is
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only

by destroying the foundation of the dis

He Held on to His Knife.

On the afternoon of June 1, 1872, an
old painter named William McCul-
Tough while painting the bridge above
the falls between the first and second
Sister islands fell into the rapids. In
stantly he was swept furiously toward
the cataract, but whirled into lesser
waves so that he struck against and
seized a rock not far above the brink.
Hundreds quickly gathered on the
shore and watched, all eager to help,
but ignorant what to do. Among them
was Thomas Conroy, who secured
coil of rope, fastened one end to tree
on shore and with the other end in his
hand waded out as far as he could and
occasionally swan, the water being
from 10 inches to six feet deep.
He aimed far up stream to allow for
the power of the current and at last
with great difficulty reached the unfor-
tunate painter and bound him to him
self with the rope. They were swept
off their feet several times on the way
back to shore, but the rope had been
firmly fastened, and they finally landed
safely. When they reached shore, it
was found that Mccullough still clutch
ed his putty knife firmly in his hand,
having held it during the three hours
he had been on the brink of the falls

First Resolving Against the Army Canteen
and Representative Roberts.
Indianapolis, July 24-The work of
the Epworth League convention prac-
tically ended Saturday night, although
but few delegates left before today.
All the visiting ministers were as
signed to fill the pulpits of the city yes
terday morning, and last night fare
we'll conservation service finally ad-
journed the convention. Early Satur-
day evening the committee on resOlu-
tons completed it's work, resulting in
the following resolutions in part, which
were adpoted by the convention Satur-
day night:
''ReSOlved, That we congratulate the
country On the passage of the anti
canteen act It's notification
by Attorney General Griggs is viewed
with painful solicitude and ever in
creasing indignation, and we hereby
pledge congress our hearty support in
maintaining it against the untenable
opinion of a subordinate executive Of
fcer.
1--WE regard the election of a polyg-
amist to congress by the state of
Utah as an indignity offered to every
American citizen, and an insult to the
sanctity and purity of the Christian
home. We protest against the election
of Roberts to the house of representa-
tives, and demand that one whose life
is so repugnant to Christian principles
shall be expelled from that great law
making body"
A resolution was adopted that in case
satisfactory railroad rates and ar
rangements could not be made for
holding the 1901 convention in San
Francisco, the meeting place selection
would be changed.

Wafer For Calves.

In order to determine how much wa
ter the herd Of Is calves at the Kansas
Agricultural college would drink, the
water given them for a week was
weighed and put in a barrel with an
attachment for letting it out as fast as
needed. In the seven days the Is calves
drank SGS pounds Of water, or an aver
age Of s pounds a day. The weather
during this time was warm for the
first three days and cool the last
four days. In addition the calves got
an average of IA pounds Of skimmilk,
besides grain and hay. The calves
drank several times day, not much at
a time, but often. l noticed several
times that they took only one or two
swallows. Oftentimes they would
take a few mouthfuls Of grain, go and
get two or three sups of water, then
back to their grain again. Even after
their rations of milk they would take
a few swallows of water. This expert
ment shows that calves need water in
addition to their milk ration; it also
shows that they like it often and not
so much at time, Always see that it
is fresh and clean.-J. A. COnover.

Caring For Whey.

The proper method of caring for the
whey: 1. Place the whey tank under
cover 2. Have it SO arranged that it
can be cleaned daily. 8. The whey
should be heated to 100 F. In placing
the whey tank under cover it is protect
ed from dirt and rain. found it good
plan to keep the whey tank in the en-
CINE ROOM The tank, which contains
the whey, should be so arranged that it
can be easily cleaned each day just as
the watts in the make room are cleaned.
It is only few minutes work to wash
this tank each day, and there is no rea-
son why this tank should not be kept as
clean as the milk watts. When whey is
cooked to 100 degrees F., it remains
quite sweet for "a hours. Of course
there is some acid in it, but not enough
to injure it for feeding purposes. The
whey can be cooked with live steam, be-
ginning as soon as possible after the
whey is in the tank. The longer the
whey stands before it is heated to 100
degrees T. the more acid will be develop
ed. When whey is handled in this way,
it makes good feed for any kind of ami
mails. In feeding it to calves there
should be small amount Of linseed
meal mixed with it. The linseed meal
to a certain extent takes the place of
the casein which has been removed
from the milk, for the linseed meal is
very rich in protein matter. The ex-
pense Of caring for the whey in this
way is very small, and the results are
very gratifying, both to the farmer and
the cheesemaker. In the first place, the
farmers will have good, wholesome
whey to feed to their stock, and, second
~, the cheesemaker Will have no gas
forming bacteria coming from his whey
tank. Consequently, if the whey is
properly cared for, the farmer will have
better stock and the cheesemaker bet
ter cheese. Dairy Reporter

A Nice, Ob1iG;ag Nan.

While a good many of the funny sto-
ries of "She asked me to hold the ba-
by have been written and the subject
consequently is somewhat frayed, still
the scene that occurred in Madison
square one night was funny. A joviaI
looking old gentleman was sitting on
a bench beside a pOrtly, well dressed
woman who had a baby in her arms.
The two got in conversation by the old
gentleman remarking, How we'll the
baby behaves" for the little thing lay
and slept peacefully wrapped in nu-
merous veilings.
Presently the woman said she was
going over to Fourth avenue to buy
bottle Of milk and requested the old
man to hold the baby. "Why, certain
ly," said he give been father and
grandfather to so many that | know
how to handle them" The woman
went away and didn't come back. The
old gentleman became nervous, but as
the baby still slept Oh peacefully he
waited until long past his own bed
time for the mother to return.
1t was nearly midnight when he
walked into the police station and
handed over the bundle. Then he bare
ly escaped arrest for trying to hoax
the sergeant when the wrappings were
thrown aside and there was disclosed

jointed things from Paris which ad-
mirably reproduce an appearance of

WHOLESOME MILK.
| who Would knowingly Use the
Product of TubercuIous Cows:

Who Would knowingly Use the
Product of TubercuIous Cows:
Generally speaking and including
children, more especially infants, whose
mothers cannot or will not give their
offspring the natural food, there is no
article of diet which is SO universally in
demand as milk, says c. W. Murtfeldt
in the st. Louis Republic. Milk, like
eggs, is perfect food. If I am not in
error, there is in Missouri a law which
requires that the milk offered for sale
in st. Louisiana presumably in other
cities of the state-shall contain the
minimum of per cent of butter fat;
also that the COWS shall be free from
tuberculosis or other diseases. DR..
White the state veterinarian, has is
sued to some diaries certificates that the
milk COWS are free from diseases.
The natural milk as it comes from
the animal is freely offered at the tables
of hotels, restaurants and boarding
houses. Even when pure and from ami
mails free from tuberculosis and other
diseases it affects some persons whose
constitutions are bilious very unpleas-
antly. Of course this result could be
obviated by using boiled milk, because
many bacteria would be killed if pres
ent. Condensed milk has been, of course,
subjected to boiling heat, but it is claim
ed, right or wrong, that that tends to con-
situation in infants. This food is claim
ed by the makers to be better than
mothers milk We would prefer ma
lures method. While we cannot con-
tradict that statement for want of scien-
tific investigation, we may here ask the
question, What assurance have those
who buy that the COWS which furnished
the milk for condensation are free from
tuberculosis? Now, says the querist,
"By your own statement you claim that
the heating Or boiling kills bacteria or
tuberculosis Then we again ask the
question, "Would you knowingly use
milk from cows which had tuberculosis,
even though it had been subjected to
certain degree of heat?'' We fancy few,
very few, parents would use it if there
was a choice offered to them.

ParneII's Ghosts.

AS you are always glad to hear about
haunted houses in Ireland, writes a
correspondent, may I add a curious
story with regard to the home of the
late Irish leader? The story is made
more credible by the fact that there
was something in the late Charles
Stewart Parnells majestic isolation
which reminded one strangely of the
gloomy grandeur Of the mountains sur
rounding his home. In the square en-
trance hall there is billiard table, and
the story is that the ghosts of the old
house amuse themselves in this spot
after nightfall. No matter how the
billiard balls are left upon the cloth at
the time the household retires, they
will be found in q different position the
next morning.-M. A. 2.

OWING TO A FEW GOATS.
A Louisiana Doctor Is Fatally Wounded
and Five Italians Are Lynched.

and Five Italians Are Lynched.
New Orleans, July 22.-Five Sicilians
were hanged yesterday by a mob at
TaIlula, town Of several hundred
inhabitants in Madison parish, seven
teen miles from the river. The dead
are: Joe Defatta, Charles Defatta,
Frank Defatta, Sy Deferroch and Joe
Cereno. The five victims were strung
up to trees for supposed connection
with plot to murder Dr. Hodges, a
prominent physician Of the place, who
on Thursday was shot and fatally
wounded by one Of the Sicilians.
In addition to this several acts of
lawlessness that have occurred in the
neighborhood recently were attributed
to the gang. Several of the men are
believed to have families in Europe.
Quiet was restored Immediately after
the lynching and the grand jury began
an investigation of the affair, and came
to the conclusion that the deed was
done by unknown parties. The trouble
between the Italians and the doctor
began over some goats the Italians
kept and which bothered the doctor.

Rig Dairy Farm IT, Delaware.

DR.. Paris T. Carlisle of Frederick
and DR.. Lester L. Carlisle CT Milford,
Del, brothers and men Of means, have
had lifelong experience in agricultural
pursuits and have decided that the
business of dairy farming can be car
ried on upon large scale to far greater
advantage than in limited way. Their
fine farms near there were therefore
united, and plans for their undertaking
were announced. AS a safe storehouse
for various pure grains q modern barn
will be first erected It will be 125 by
so feet and contain three silos with a
capacity of 750 tons. Near this will be
the main COW stable for sheltering in
bad weather the thoroughbred cattle
with which the place will be stocked.
It will be 312 by 33 feet, having stall
capacity for $50 cows. AS soon as work
on these buildings is completed another
barn, of the same size and dimensions
as the first, will be built. Work is also
begun On the creamery building, sub
stantial structure 122 by 40 feet, which
will be fitted with aerators, separators
and all the modern improvements for
cream, butter and cheese making. An
other building, 80 feet wide, for the
storage of corn, will complete the store
houses. These structures will be of iron
all over, and the construction of an Of
fee 10 by "a feet will also be prosecuted
with the same material.

On one Of Landseers early visits to
Scotland the great painter stopped at
q village and took a great deal Of no.
tice of the dogs, jotting down rapid
sketches of them on a piece of paper.
Next day, on resuming his journey, he
was Mortified to find dogs suspended
from trees in all directions, or drown
ing in the rivers, with stones around
their necks. He stopped a weeping
urchin, who was hurrying off with q
pet pup in his arms, and learned to his
dismay that he was supposed to be an
excise officer who was taking notes Of
all the dogs he saw in order to prose-
cute the owners for unpaid taxes.

Washing Milk Pals.

1t is always important to wash milk
pals as soon as possible after their con-
tents are emptied. If left to stand two
Or three hours, some of the milk dries
on The wooden pail, and then the more
hot water is put on it the closer it
sticks. Always wash milk pals first
with cold water to remove the particles
of milk and then scald with hot water
to destroy any germs that may remain.
