win Not surrender rhe,r Gums.

Havana, May 29.-Up to s o'clock
this evening not a soldier had appeared
at Lapunta to receive the honorarium
Of SIS allotted by the United States for
the surrender of arms and disband-
ment Of the men composing the Cuban
army.
Major Francis S. Dodge OF the pay
masters department, was In the prin-
cipal square Of this city with 100000 in
gold and $4,000 In silver, but no Cuban
soldiers asked for their share. The
scheme Of payment. so far as Havana
is concerned, looks like a failure.
Quite different results are expected In
the country districts, where the Cuban
military assembly and anti-Gomez In
fuence Is not so strong.

Laurier Expects a Meeting.

F, Ottawa, Ont, May 29.-In the house
Of commons Friday the attention OF
the premier was called to London dis
patch stating that negotiations be-
tween Canada and the United States
had come to an end. Sir Wilfrid
Laurier replied in words very similar
to those he used week ago, stating
that fair progress was made by the
commission with all subjects except
the Alaska boundary, and that on that
the commissioners could not agree.
There was no truth in the story that
negotiations had been abandoned. He
expected the commission to meet again
this summer.

A MAN.
LOST.

LOST No man understands the full
meaning of that word like the man who
has been lost. He will tell you: 81 was
in the woods going ahead steadily when
i realized I'd missed the trail. With a
cry of Lost! I broke into run heed
less or ignorant of the direction 1 was
going"
The first impulse of man lost in the
woods is to run. The only safe thing is
to sit right down and reason out the
position.
Sometimes business man gets I'D at the
usual hour, breakfasts, kisses his wife and
starts for the office. He has for some
time seen signs that he was off the trail
of health. To-day the signs multiply.
His brain is dull and dizzy, his heart
does not beat right, his breathing is diff
fcult, his limbs feel tremulous. He is
scared. He realizes that he's far away
from the trail Of health, and suddenly
like panther from tree, the thought
leaps on him, "You are a lost man"
The first impulse is to run for help,
pitfalls of quackery. But the rational
thinks over the position and its proba-
bilities.
That is the man we want to talk to.
Disease in almost any form is gen.
orally accompanied by the failure of the
organs of digestion and nutrition. Re-
establish these organs in healthy action,
the blood Is at once enriched, the body
nourished and the general health re-
stored. This result is invariably ac-
complished by DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. 1t is stomach-strength-
ening, nerve-nourishing, muscle-making,
blood-purifying medicine. 1t has cured
thousands who thought their health
entirely lost. The Discovery" is not
a stimulant and contains no alcohol or
whisky. Sold at all medicine stores.

Is in favor Of the experiment of enlist
mics, the Tagals. A delegation of lead
Ing Macabebes has visited the general,

them and burned their villages, and
they asked to be protected and to be
given arms to protect themselves.

hundred Of these men and use them
as scouts, and IL the experiment proved
successful he would enlist more Of
them.

CEMENT IN STABLES.

Floors and Cutters Suitable For the
Comfort of Cows.
There is no need of employing an ex-
pert to put down cement floors or
struight walks, says Waldo F. Brown,
for if the directions here given are fol-
lowed the farmer can make as good a
floor as to pay man So day, which
is what is charged. I laid all of my
floors and straight walks, but was
obliged to hire an expert to make cir
cular walk and a porch floor, on which
we made projection. There are few
points which must be observed to make
good work, and these are, first, to start
with a good foundation, and this means
that an excavation be made to Eardpan
and filled with either small stone or
gravel to where the concrete is to be
put on.
For outdoor work we usually dig
about foot, but this depends on the
nature of the soil, as all that is neces-
sary is to dig to where it is solid. Ii
this is filled with stone, it should be
pounded down so as to level and settle
it and then covered with gravel, and
level should be used and the grade es-
tablished before the concrete is applied.
''What dc you mean by ccncrete?'
Concrete is made of finely broken stone,
sand, gravel and cement and is put in
for foundation to put the liquid stone
on, for cement (Portland) makes stone
of the hardest and best quality. GLOW
do you mix the concrete?'' If gravel is
used, we take eight parts of it to one of

it up in a conical heap till you have
several barrels and then shovel it over
three times dry, and the fourth time
have some one sprinkle it with water, so
as to thoroughly dampen it. but not to

Skilled Butter Makers.

The demand for skilled butter makers
is expected to be greater this season
than ever before A number of cream
cry men have been heard to express
themselves as being through expert
menting with poor, cheap help, as it
has proved very expensive. and they
will begin this season with competent
help. 1t is to be hoped that every
creamery man will see the profits to be
gained by. employing butter maker
skilled in his art and pay him good
salary. The buyers on our leading
markets are becoming more and more
critical each year, and it is going to be

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to'its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inHamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.

"For five weeks 7 lived on cold v

For five weeks I lived on cold water,
so to speak," writes man who suffered
terribly from Indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on his
stomach. What stayed, wasn't properly
digested and gave him terrible pangs.
This is not an uncommon case. Dys-
peptics don't get enough nourishment.
They are generally thin and weak.
They may eat enough, but they don't
digest enough. Much of what they eat
turns into poison. If this keeps on there
is no telling what disease they may get
next.
That is why it is best to take Shaker
Digestive Cordial, as soon as symptoms
of indigestion appear.
It cures all the evils ofindigestion, and
prevents the evils which inGigestions
causes.

What Is Cow Manure Worth:

If all the liquid and solid excrement
of COWS is saved, it will make with
enough straw to absorb it about two
horse load per month, such as farmers
usually draw from stables and barn
yards to the fields This manure is al
ready on the farm, and it ought there
fore to be worth more than in city or
village stable. where it has to be drawn
several miles before it can be applied
to the land. On the other hand, the
farmer who draws manure from a city
fixes up ia wagon box that will hold
fully twice as much as any load Of.
produce that he takes from the farm to
market. A dollar load is the usual
price for these large loads when con-
tracted for by the year. In the sum-
mer, when manure piles in cities are a
nuisance, manure from cow stables
will be sold much less than this. We
have known it offered at so cents a
load, and IN extreme cases have seen it
given free of cost to whoever will take
it away. Boston Cultivation. sa@

Cause of Nervous Diseases.
DR.. Waetzold, a French scientist of
wide repute, says that the nervous dis
eases from which SO many young girls
suffer may be largely attributed to the
abuse of the piano. 1t is necessary, in
his opinion, that the deadly custom of
compelling young girls to hammer on
the keyboard before they are Is or 16
years old should be limited in the ap-
plication." The physician further as
serts that out of 1000 girls who studied
the piano before the age Of II, 900 were
afflicted with nervous troubles later in
life, while only 100 were affected among
a similar number who never touched
this instrument.

make it dripping wet. If finely crushed

barrels Of it, two of coarse sand and
four of gravel to one of cement.
"How deep should the concrete be

floor is to be used for. In the horse sta
BILE we put in five inches of it after it
is tamped solid, for outside walks four
inches, and for a hoghouse, poultry
house, cow stable or cellar three inches.
We put this in about two inches at
time and pound it down solid and then
put on the liquid stone. This is mixed
two parts Of sharp, coarse sand to one
of cement and spread on the concrete.
We lay it in sections of three or four
feet wide, putting up two inch joist
for the edge and stalking it firmly in
place, and take up the stake carefully
and move the edge piece to another sec
ton as soon as one is finished. This
topping of the liquid stone is put on an
inch thick for a horse stable and half
inch for other floors.
Make all the floors level both ways
except the cow stable, which should
slope one inch to the five feet from the
manger to the manure ditch.
In the horse stable you should always
use enough bedding to take up allof
the liquid, but the cow stable should be
so arranged that the urine will fall in
the ditch. and if cow should, as is
sometimes the case, urinate on the floor
we want enough slope to cause it to run
into the ditch.
