SENATOR QUAY's JOKE.
Its Humor Always Felt, ~ Not
Seen.

New Orleans TfmesDemocrat.

QUAY as a statesman or q stock specu-

sonv;ile, Fla, but can bear witness he 3
mighty good company. I met him down
on the Indian river several seasons ago.
and We were thrown together good deal
for upward of month. He was the life
OF the party, and the best story teller I
ever listened to. One Of his favorite yarns
was about a wicked drummer who used
to fiirt with the girls In a big dry goods
store. His wife found out about 1t, and
went over TO warn the young women to
have nothing TO do with him. IF he
speaks to you,' she said to the first clerk
she encountered. Just take q hatpin and
jab him--like this-' When Quay reached
that part of the narrative he would ex-
tract pin from his coat and prod his
listener. Then shs went on TO the next
girl he would continue. and told her to
grab the trifing rascal by the ear-liks
this--the very first time she saw him. and
If he clustered to give 1t twist-like this
and lead him to the door As he spoke
he would suit the action to the word OF
course. the whole point of the story was
the torture that was inflicted on the
hearer under the pretence OF Illustrating
the suggestions of the unfortunate wife.
AS rule, man wouldn't catch on until
he had been half murdered. The story
lasted as long the victim would stand
il. some new indignity being described as
each clerk was interviewed I've known
Quay to tell II to thickheaded Flordians
and get the wife UP TO the fourth story
Of the dry goods establishment before
they realized that all the sufferings of the
rascally drummer were being reproduced
on their own persons. The rest of us
would stand back and nearly die laugh
ing. but the senator would never crack
a smile. Some of the men TO whom he
told that anecdote will greatly regret his
acauittal. They think he ought to be
hanged"

Too Much For Sam.
Exchange.

Exchange.
General Nicolls, of New Orleans,
sacrificed an eye, leg, and an arm to
the cause which he believed just, and
came out of the war, as he declared,
"only half man." But the half that
was left enjoyed joke as keenly as
ever. Science replaced the lost mem
bers so successfully that nobody who
was ignorant of his misfortune could
detect it.
The general often told the following
story:
Stopping at a hotel in Mobile a
Negro boy was detailed to help him
prepare for bed. After his bag was
unpacked and his coat laid aside, he
said: 'Now, Sam, take off my Leg"
Sam stared speechless.
"Don't know yet how to take off legs,
eh? Now, look heren'
He unscrewed the leg, and keeping
it carefully covered with it's long,
black stocking, laid it aside.
"Now, take off this arm"
''No, sab! No sab! Nebber took off nc
gentlum's ahm in my life!" gasped
Sam, turning gray with terror.
"YOu're a pretty valet. Nothing
easier" The arm was taken off and
laid beside the leg on the table, and
the general prepared for sleep and got
into bed.
''Oh, by the way! We'd better take
an eye out."
He took it out. Sam backed to the
door, afraid to turn his back on the
terrible guest, who stretched himsel
sleepily, and then said:
'tNow, Sam, take off my head!'
Sam rushed out of the room to th'
Office, and could only find strength tt
gasp out: 'It's de debbil heself, sab
He's taken hisself to pieces in room
forhty-eight!'

When sheep are pastured upon clover
there is constant checking of the plant,
and this predisposes it to the forming of
seed; thus it will produce heavier seed
crop than under the common practice of
allowing it grow until in blossom and
then cutting it close to the ground; but
of the Canada thistles and other bien-
nial weeds the sheep will not take suf-
ficient care to absolve you from giving
some attention to them.

Results obtained by feeding the corn,
neither dry cured or kept in the silo,
are essentially same, but there is no
doubt whatever that the silo offers
much the less laborious way of storing
the crop and feeding to the cattle, and
in a way, too, which makes the farmer
almost independent of the weather at
harvest time, for the weather does not
interfere much with work of filling the
silo; and then the food is all chopped
and ready for winter handling.

The Successful Remedy for
NASAL CATARRH

must be non-irritating, easy of application,
and one that by its own action, reaches the in
famed and diseased surfaces.
ELY'S CREAM BALM combines the i'm
portant requisites of quick action and specific
curatic powers with perfect safety to the pa
tient. This agreeable remedy has mastered
catarrh as nothing else has, and both physi-
clans and patients freely concede the fact
All druggists cheerfully acknowledge that in
It the acme of Pharmaceutical skill has been
reached. The most distressing symptoms
quickly yield to it. In accute cases the Balm
imparts almost immediate relief

By Absorption.

Catarrhal sufferers should remember that
Rly's Cream Balm Is the only catarrh remedy
which is quickly and thoroughly absorbed by
the diseased membrane. 1t does not dry up
the secretions, but changes them to a limpid
and odorless condition, .and finally to natu-
raj and healthy character.
The Balm can be found at any drug store
or by sending so cents to Ely Brothers, st
Warren St., New York, it will be mailed
Full directions with each package
Cream Balm opens and cleanses the nasal
passages, allays inflammation, thereby stop
ping pain in the head, heals and protects the
membrane and restores the senses of taste
and smell. The Balm is applied directly into
the nostrils.

Some sheep growers claim that for the

Some sheep growers claim that for the
amount of food eaten a Southdown
wether will put on more pounds of flesh,
fat and wool than any other animal; but
it requires more skill to feed sheep
without injuring digestion than it does
other farm animals. Only the skillful
can make the foregoing boast come
true. 1t is quite possible to make 10
pounds live weight gain in pig from
a bushel of corn; and it is to be doubted
if this can be done in feeding sheep of
any kind.
The Bellefontaine Republican. [volume] (Bellefontaine, Logan County, Ohio) 1855-1905, 1899-10-13

Where specially farming is begun in
a given region it usually develops rapid
ly and becomes main standby. We
can see instances of this everywhere,
and it affords an object lesson for farm
ers who find that they can not make
both ends meet in growing the staples.
The Bellefontaine Republican. [volume] (Bellefontaine, Logan County, Ohio) 1855-1905, 1899-10-13

The old way of cutting corn for the
silo before the grain has formed has
been wholly abandoned by good farm
ers. Wait until the stuff has some sus-
tenance in it before trying to make it
into feed. Cut it up, ears and all: and
keep it we'll covered.
The Bellefontaine Republican. [volume] (Bellefontaine, Logan County, Ohio) 1855-1905, 1899-10-13

Somehow English farmers have a
reputation OF keeping sheep more profit
ably, considering the high rental of land
and high price of all bought food, than
any other people, and they grow better
favored mutton. They make it point
to give frequent change of pasture to
their flocks, even before they exhaust
the fields they have left.

AGRICULTURAL.

Two silos built high and narrow are
better than single one which presents
a larger surface to the air; then we can
feed from one at time and expose the
less area while feeding is in progress.

Woodpeckers rarely leave any serious
mark on healthy tree, but when tree
is affected by wood boring larvae the in
sects are accurately located, dislodged
and devoured. These birds are great
conservators of forests, and to them
more than to any other agency is due
the preservation of timber from hordes
of destructive inspects.

An exchange describes evolution as
follows: A girl named plain ''Mary" at
her birth dropped the ''r' when she
grew up and became Miss May. AS
she began to shine in a social way she
changed the ''y'' to '.e' and signed her
letter Mae. About a year ago she drop
ped the sc" and it's just plain ''Ma. +"
That's evolution.

The long pressure of the common
style of plow has made compact the
under layers of soils, resulting in two
fold loss-that of the ability to absorb
and retain the waters of the soil, and
that of washing away the soils them
selves. We can not complete these
annual losses. The remedy seems to
lie in subsoiling.

1t is questionable whether any raiser
of sheep or other stock loses money
feeding when grain is high. AT
such times but few are feeding, and
when fattened they bring enough extra
price to pay good profit over the in
creased cost of grain; then, too, they
are likely to receive more diligence,
study, care and culling.

When the spring comes the wise
farmer knows just what he wants to do

The hird man should at least have
intelligence enough to carry out your

The value Of our native sparrows as

scribable misery.
II was suffering with what the doctors called
chronic indigestion torpid liver, and vertigo"
writes Mrs. Martha Il. Barham, of Newville,
Prince George Co, Va. THE doctor did me
no good. My symptoms were giddiness in
the head, pains in the chest and an uneasy
feeling all over. ! also suffered with female
weakness
~ was all rundown and could not do any
work at all without suffering from nervous at
tacks / wrote to DR. R ". Pierce, of Buffalo,

Golden Medical Discovery and Favorite Pre-
scription ! did So and used five bottles OF
each and cannot express the benefit have
received from these medicines 1 gained in
health and strength When commenced to
use the medicines weighed only ia pounds,
now l weigh I4o pounds l thank God and
DIR. Pierce for my recovery. My husband and
friends all thought would die but to-day am
a we'll woman"
The wonderful effects of this great "Dis-
covery" are genuine and permanent; they
are not due to any false or alcoholic stirnu
lus for it contains no alcohol. Real sub
stantial healthy musuclar strength is built
up; the stomach and liver are toned; the
blood is purified and vitalized; the nerves
are steadied; the entire constitution is re-
juvenated and renewed.
In case of constipation, there is nothing
quite so effective as DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. They act comfortably though
surely; they do not gripe; you do not be-
come slave to their use. Their effect Is
lasting. There are countless substitutes;
but nothing else is like them.
