The people in Pennsylvania willingly
did their evidence 10 that which has al
ready been given in favor of Morrow's
Kid d-ne-oida the best remedy that has
ever been sold in this state for backache,
kidney and urinary disorders, slceplcss-
ness and nervousness. Our druggists re-
port wonderful cures and state that KID
ne-oids are daily increasing III the opin-
ion Of our people. Kid-ne-oids act di-
rectly upon the kidneys and nerves and
restore them To their natural condition.
Good kidneys make good blood, good
blood makes strong nerves, Kid-ne-oi da
make good kidneys and strong nerves
Mr.. John Beightoi, rag Du Bois street
Du Bois. Pa, says:-For years ! was
troubled with kidney disorders, and dur
ing this time tried different Kinds OF kid
ney remedies, but meyer found anything
that gave me relief like Morrow's KID
nc-oids Before taking Kid-ne-oids !
suffered with dull heavy pain IN the
small OF my back which would be ire
quented by a sharp shooting pain just over
The kidney extending up the spine 10

Of an annoying nature Since taking

HAPPY MEDIUM IN POTATO PLANTING.
periments indicate that the use of a
harrow or weeder after the appearance
Of the plants Is detrimental In some
cases and that the use Of the cultiyator
is better.
The cultivators are started at once,
and the soil is worked up fine between
the rows TO "A depth Of two inches be-
low the seed piece, allowing the cult
vator teeth to run quite deep and close
TO the roots, as shown In the second
figure. Rendering the soil loose around
and below the seed piece is the object,
as the first roots that form run right
around the seed piece and down to the
loose soil below. Now II this operation
IL performed quickly and thoroughly
the plant viii Immediately throw out
second and third set Of roots that VIII
seek the lowest depth attained by the
cultivator and below, filling all the soil
under and around the seed piece very
full Of small roots This loosenlng Of
the soil should be accomplished by the
time the potato tops are not over three
inches IN height.
Two Of the plants in the second fig
ure indicate the condition as II should
be at the time the plant makes its first
appearance, showing the cultivator
teeth within about two inches Of the
seed piece and below the seed piece
level. The third plant indicates the
repetition Of the first work at time
when the plant is from four to six
inches high and at about the same dis
tance from the plant Each cultivation
should be made narrower as the plants
grow, so ns to keep close to the roots
and yet avoid cutting or breaking
them

slowed " an Ohio Farmer writer on a
system OF potato planting for which
bis claims are by no means small, as
may be seen from the following:
The points OF superiority which l
claim over any other system are:
First, a1Hptability te the different soils
Of the sections where potatoes are
grown, north or south; second, the
most perfect system for a change OF
season TO wet or dry weather and the
only one that will secure the most
profitable results in either case; third,
the most even crop of tubers and the
finest quality; fourth, the system that
Is In itself the most effective prevent
I've known for rot and blight and has
proven successful for - years without
an exception.
The following Illustration will make
plain the many principles of my meth

hand potato planters or two horse po-
tato planters In the first figure, which
is cross section, the plain line shows
the ground level. The straight dotted
line is three inches below. The seed
pieces are shown in the bottom of the

ridging above the rows. The ground
is supposed to be thoroughly fitted and
either dragged level or floated till the
surface is even and smooth and in per-
feet condition as to tineness of top soil
at least, always using a jOinter plow
where there is a semblance of grass or

In sandy and loamy soil the seed IS

face Of ground. In clay soil depth of
planting is decreased to two inches. In
each kind the soil is ridged along the

ridge is left by the two horse planter
directly over the seed of 2A or 3 inch
es of soil above the level. or about five
inches above the seed piece. In all
forms of hand planting we secure this
ridge by going through the field with
the wings or mold boards on the cult
vator several days after the planting
and before the potatoes appear.
The next operation Is the use OF a
weeder or drag, and / much prefer
drag with the teeth set shallow or
slanting enough not to disturb the seed,
for the reason that 1t does the work
more thoroughly at one operation and
should leave the field level once more

Archibald Forbes Experience With
a COIored Cabman.

Archibald Forbes Experience With
COIored Cabman.
There is Il delightfully."- human story
which Archibald Forbes, the famous
war correspondent, told, rather at his
own expense, of his qualification at
the apparent desire of the man and
brother for higher intellectual csl-
ture. On arriving at the station at
West Chester, Pa, where he was TO
lecture, a colored cabman, it is said,
offered his services TO convey him to
his hotel When he got there, Mr..
Forbes asked the extent of remunera-
ton expected for tho journey. The
darky replied
"Well, sab, If you'd jes' give me =
ticket to de lectur', sab, should be
right glad"
This unusual request from cabman
struck him not only as singular and
laudable, but as quite complimentary
to him, so he said:
Certainly. And haven't you got a
missisT
ooh, yes, sab; Use got missis!"
"Well, you shall have one for her"
And he requested his agent to hand
to the knowledge seeker the requisite
passes for the entertainment. On
reaching the lecture room he cast a
glance over the audience to see his col
ored friend, but he had not arrived,
nor did he put in an appearance. Next
morning, on getting into the same
mans vehicle to go to the station, Mr..
Forbes said:
81 didn't see you at the lecture last
night"
mo, sab; / We not dar."
But, you know, l gave you tickets
for yourself and wife"
"Yes, sab; know that, sab, but you
see, sab, jes' sold dem tickets for 81,

THE WIND AT THE DOOR.

Often to my door
Comes a twilight visitor.
When the mountain summer day
From our valley takes his way,
And the journeying shadows stride
Over the green mountain side,
Down the Glove among the trees
Moves the ghostly wandering breezs-
With the first stars on the crest
And the pale light in the vest
He comes up the dark ravine
Where no traveller is seen.
Yet his coming makes stir
In the house Of Ash and Fir.
Master, is't in our abode
You will tsrry on the rcadY'
Nay, / like your roof tree well,
But with you | may not dwell"
Birches whisper at their sill
As he passes up the hill,
''Stranger, underneath our boughs
There is ample room TO house"
Friends, have another quest
Than your cool abiding rest"
And the iuttering Aspen knows
Whose step by her doorway goes-
"Hsnor, lord, .hy silver tree
And the chamber laid for thee"
NAY, | must be faring on,
For tonight ! seek my own.
Breath OF the red dust IS he
And wayfarer like me;
Here a moment and then lost
On a trail confused and crossed.
And gently would surprise
Recognition in his eyes;
Touch his hand and talk with ktA
When the forest light is dim,
Taking counsel with the lord
OF the utterable word.
Hark, did you hear some one try
The west window furtiyely
And then move among the leaves
In the shadow Of the eavesf
The reed curtain at the door
Rustled; there's my visitor
Who comes searching for his kin.
Enter, brother, I'm within"

We have just received from Messrs
Laird & Lee, Chicago, a novel entitled
''The Violet Flame" by Fred T. Jane,
an English author of much reputation in
the old country. This is strange and
weird tale of general upheaval about
to take place, and eliminating in the
destruction of the whole human race,
except the hero and heroine, who are left
behind to start anew the story of Adam
and Eve. In spite of the dramatic end
ing, the book is full of modern life and
humor, and the interest centers in the
city of London, in the first years of the
coming century. Narratives of this
kind have been frequently attempted
with varied success, but we must admit
that Mr.. Fred T. James text and illus
trations (for the author is also the
artist) are far ahead of their predeces-
sors. The book is essentially original
and thrilling from beginning to end The
cover is exquisite in tone and design.

WarninE Cry by Cochran.

Warning Cry by Cochran.
w. Bourke Cochran, in addressing the
graduating class of the Yale law school.
said that the young men of the gradual
ing class were entering their profession
on the eve Of the most momentous deci-
sion ever given by court, referring to
the pending question before the supreme
court of the United States on the con-
stitutiOnal status Of acquired territory.
Should the supreme court decide that
the constitution applies to newly acquir-
ed Islands, and that their products and
their people have free access to our
shores, to our ports and to our marts of
trade, both political parties will be as
earnest in their desire to be rid of them
as one party already seems to be-" said
Mr.. Cochran. sep
THE right of the United States to take
territory is not disputed The annexa-
ton of Canada is a wish of many Ameri-
cans. The annexation of Mexico is not
an improbability. nor the taking in Of
South America an impossibility. Nor is
the annexation of part of China today
quite so fanciful as three years ago the
annexation of the Philippines would
have been considered. It is not impos-
sible that twelve months hence the an
nexation Of part of the wall of China
may be burning political question.

court should hold that the constitution
