ULARITY ALL OVER THE WORLD
INCREASED EXPORTS.

Washington. Dec is (speciaD.-The growing pop
ularitv of American corn In all parts OF the worlu
is illustrated by the November statement OF ex-
rorts NJ breadstufs Just issued by the Treasury
Bureau OF Statistics. 1t shows larger quantity OF
corn exported In the eleven months ending with

ports OF corn in the eleven months ending win
November 1892 were S5.s32.65s bushels. valued at
s74742l27 while in the corresponding months OF

eleven months OF 1899 being 40 cents bushei
against 81 cents in 1898 and 81 cents In the corre-
spending months OF 1871.
That the growth has been steady and rapid Is
shown by comparison Of the figures OF 1885 ana
1899 with those OF 1898 and 1894 In 1893 the exports
Of corn in the eleven months ending with November
were as COZ 1873 bushels and in 1894 @N02R bushes'

CLENDowER-"I can call spirits from the TASTY
deep"
HorspUR-"Why, so can l. or so can any man"
But UiH they come ahen you do call for
them ?"-SHAKESPEARE.
How quickly Hotspur's wise and witty retort
tears the tragic mantle in which Glendower stalks,
and shows beneath the seer's robe the motley of
the mountebank. Most people would have taken
the Welchman at his word and called him seer
without noting the difference between to 6aH and
to command.
Certain points of comparison are suggested
between Glendower's tragic claim and the comic
claim made in some specious advertisements 81
am a woman ] know all about woman. under
stand woman, and 1 can cure woman because
am a woman" The modern Mrs. Hotspur puts her
finger right on the weak spot of that clamorous
claim by saying "Why If you can cure woman
simply because you woman, then so can
and so can any woman" Which very plainly
brings out the common sense fact that the cure OF
diseases does not depend upon being a or
being nomaH but does depend upon being
trained and experienced physician.
There is, as far as is known, no qualified woman
physician associated with any proprietary medicine
firm. II is certain that there is no one, man or
woman, who can show an experience or record
equal to that OF Dr. r. V. Pierce; more than thirty

HE HAS ENOUGH.
A Burglar Gets Stuck in Chimney
"s .. and Quits. .....n

Barnesville, Ca, Sept. 3.-Frank
Banks, colored, was found about
half way down the inside of the
chimney of Daniel Smiths store at
midnight. When discovered he was
in great distress and WIS calling for
help. Night Waterman Carswell
heard his cries, and, with the assist
ance of one or two other persons
and a rope, Banks was drawn out
at the top of the chimney and is
now in jail at Zebulon.
In trying to make his way down,
Banks became securely fastened, and
doubtless would have died before
morning if help had not reached
him. 1t seems that Banks had
planned to reach the goods in the
store through the chimney. When
taken from the chimney he was in
condition OF collapse and had to
be given restoratives.
He had struggled long and fear
fully before calling for help and all
but suffocated himself. He declares
this experience will end his career
as a burglar.-Ex.

BOYS and young men sometimes
start out in life with the idea that
ones success depends largely on
sharpness and chicanery. They
imagine that if a man is able "to
get the best of the bargain" no
matter by, what deceit and mean
ness he carries his point, that his
prosperity is assured. That is a
great mistake. Enduring prosper
ity cannot he founded on cunning
and dishonesty. The tricky and
deceitful are sure to fall a victim
sooner or later to the influences
which are forever working against
him. His house is built upon the
sand and it's foundation is certain
to give way. Young people cannot
give these truths too much weight.
Lay the foundation of your career
in the enduring principles of ever
lasting truths. - The Culbertson
(Neb.) Era.

cial feature, and perhaps the only
agreeable one Of the island, is-or
rather was, when the few trees that
struggled for existence there had not
been felled-the presence Of certain
very large lizards which lived in the
trees and were killed with stones by
the prisoners, to be eaten. They
were really a delicacy, and when
boiled or roasted afforded a rich,
palatable dish, something similar in
taste to pheasants.

width, consists almost entirely OF
bare, unfruitful rocks. The arid
soil, on which even the grass withers

few scattered bushes grow, the foil

by the pitiless sun, showed the man
who was to live there the sufferings
