Marcus DAILY, the famous mine owner,

Bright's disease complicated with heart

Marcus DAILY was born In Ireland

United States at the age Of 10 and set

gagged by Mackey, Flood and 0'Brien as
foreman of the Comstock mine. His sue

to an acquaintance with J. B. Haggin,
Lloyd Teyis and the late Senator Hearst,
who sent him to Montana in 1880 TO
manage their mines. He took hold Of

Healthy Cows. Wholesome Food.


Good butter, pure butter, SO we'll made
that il does not need to be renovated,
and that has the aroma and flavor
which it can obtain only from healthy
cows, fed upon wholesome food, and
which will be destroyed by uncleanly
surroundings, is the most palatable of
all the fat foods that man can take, or
most of men, and it is also one of the
most digest!ble. There may be excep-
tons among the pure vegetable oils,
says the American CultivaIor, but there
is none among the animal fats that we
know. 1t should be regarded as a ne
cessity rather than luxury, particular
ly for children and inyalds, and we
think that many of them would be ben
Gifted by more liberal use of it. Good
food is cheaper than the use of medi-
cine, and we think the dose of cod liver
oil 50 often advised by physicians
might well be given up and a liberal
use of pure cream and good butter be
taken in its place to the advantage of
the health of the patient in many cases.
1t is not economy to limit the use of
any wholesome food product that the
stomach can digest at the risk of en-
feebled health.

PARIS FAIR ENDS.
Great Crowds Throug the Grounds on
the Closing Day.

the Closing Day.
The Paris exposition Of 1900 ended
Monday night in a blaze Of Illumination.
The booming of cannon from the first
story of the Eiffel Tower at midnight an
nounced the close of the great fair. This
signal marked the height Of a fete that
was brilliant, though not largely attend
ed. This celebration, the last of the sum-
mer and autumn of gayety, in which over
J0,000,000 people from all parts of the
world have taken part, was marred by a
cold, drilling rainfall. Tickets that had
brought sou in the afternoon were sold
at the rate OF five for a sou. The work
OF removing exhibits began shortly after
midnight, and within few weeks moth
ing Will be left of the great exposition
except the immense hothouses on the
northern bank of the Seine and the art
palaces.
The total of paid admissions was 49,
100000. Including. free tickets, the to-
tai is more than 100000. The average
attendance was about 100000 daily, the
largest number being that of the first
Sunday in September, 100000.
NJ. Hanotaux, former minister of for
eign affairs, in an article entitled THE
Balance Sheetcef the Exposition" says:
France expended 200,000,000 or $780,
000,000 francs to erect the exposition.
She has recovered them easily in the in
crease of the treasury receipts, which for
this year alone is nearly 100000
francs: in the surplus of Partisan octroi
duties, in the monuments remaining to
the state or the city. and in the quays,
bridges and improved transportation ia
cilities bequeathed by the exposition
Moreover there has been general tot
lette of the city, which has contributed
to its brilliance and beauty"

Mr.. Shallenberger refers to the steps
taken looking to stopping speculative bid

that the new policy OF awarding all new
contracts only to persons living on or
contiguous to the route involved has
worked satisfactorily.

LEPERS IN THE ORIENT.

Mr.. Stapleton, writing Of the London

statements:
India has about half million, China
has as many and Japan two hundred

leprosy appears in man, woman or
child Punishment is irreyocably decreed.

Glover Sick Land.


We used to hear much of land getting
clover sick, or so that while rich
enough for corn or most Of the usual
farm crops, il seemed not to be suit
able for clover. Either Tie seed would
fail to catch or the plants would die
out before they had attained size
enough 10 show them above the other
grasses. Perhaps on a poor field near
by there would be good crop of clover
growing, sown with seed from the
ssame bag and under the same condi-
tions of season. When we first noticed
this we saw that the farmers who had
used wood ashes on their fields had no
trouble in growing clover and that in
pastures where bushes had been cut
and burned there were often punches
of clover, most frequently of white
clover, that came in and remained until
they We're killed out by being fed too
closely. This led us to believe the clover
would be benefited by the use of wood
ashes or any form of potash. Then we
noticed that farmers who used COM
mercial fertilizer in addition to their
manure had no trouble in growing
clover. Later studies showed us that
lime formed considerable part of both
ashes and the superphosphates, and
thus we do not hesitate 20 advise any
one to apply lime where they wish to
grow clover, and to use acid phosphate
and muriate of potash when they SOW
the seed. or as topdressing afterward.
We think these are a sure remedy for
clover-sick soil-Exchange.
