GREAT FOOD EXHIBIT.
A Comprehensive Display From Pam
American Countries mt buffalo.


In the division of Foods and their
accessories an exhibit will be made
at the Pan-American Exposition ut
Buffalo Of a most comprehensive char
acter and covering one-quarter of the
large area of the Manufactures and
Liberal Arts building.
The division will bring to the atten-
ton of the consumers and tradesmeu
the food resources of Pan-America,
showing them that the countries of the
western hemisphere produce, and are
capable of producing in quantities sutfi-
cient for all demands, great variety
of foods that are now imported from
the islands and countries of the far
East.
1t Is hoped thus greatly TO stimulate
Pan-American trade. The division will
present n collection of food products
and their accessories in such a way
as to challenge the interest Of every
inquiring visitor, and he will be offered
valuable instruction upon the nature,
origin and use of the various foods.
One group will relate to literature
and statistics of food, live plants, vines
and trees from all parts of the western
world and miscellaneous specimens of
trunks, limbs, leaves, seeds, grasses
and grains.
Under another will be exhibited such
products as coffees, teas, cocoas, choc-
olates. kola and their substitutes,
spices. aromatics. mustards. olives.
vincgars and other condiments. herbs,
hops. essential oils and fiavoring ex-
tracts. An interesting collection of con-
fectlonery and sweets. including the
sugar cane. beet, sorghum. maple,
grape. palm, etc. honey and glucose,
will be exhibited. Preserves and kin.
dred products will be shown under an
other group and nuts and dried fruits
and vegetables. etc, under another.
Prepared cereals, breads and crackers,
Indian corn as food for the table,
macaroni and preparations of paste
and leavening preparations will con-
stitute still another interesting group.
Mineral waters and beverages, both
alcoholic and nonalcoholc. preserved
and packed meats and sea food. gela-
tin preparations and even machinery
used in food preparation processes will
be displayed. The food exhibit is I'M
der the supervision of Mr. c. Edward
Fuller an expert Of worldwide repu-
tation in this line Of work. who has
travelled around the world and into
many Of !ts remote corners in search
of information upon the subject Of

growing. He reports that every asso-
citation, without exception, is much in-
terested IN the Pan-Amerlcan EXPOSE
ton and that it will contribute ex.
hibits TO the show which will take
place In September
strong feature OF the sheep eX-
hibit will lie in the middle wool class,
In which mutton is the first considera-
ton and wool secondary. This class
includes Shropshires OXfords. South
downs and like breeds. The exhibits
OF these breeds will be exceptionally
large. The classification OF sheep in
cludes some II breeds. Some OF them
are new to America, such as Tunis,
Suffolks and the Highland Black Face.
These new breeds Will be particularly
interesting on account of their novelty.
The Highland Black Face is n well
known breed in Scotland, but In Amer
lea there are comparatively few fiocks.
Wool growing Is carried on in nearly
every part Of the United States, the
business being particularly adapted TO
rough and mountainous districts where
the steep hillsides and mountain pas
lures can be utilized. The exhibit OF
sheep will therefore, come from nearly
every state i'm the Union and will In
clude about 100 Of the finest bred an
imals. The exhibits Of imported sheep
will be made only by American breed
no ~ OF
shall have been in the possession of ex-
hibitors at least GO days before the date
Of the entry.
The display Of swine TO be made in
the latter part of September will in
clude representatives Of II breeds.
Among these will be the new breeds
known as Suffolks, Victorias and Tam
worths. The Tamworth stock is bred
to some extent in Canada, but is prac-
tically unknown in the United States.
While swine growing OH an extensive
scale has been confined largely to the
corn belt. it is becoming profitable
industry among darymen. 1t is par
ticularly so in connection with cheese
making, the byproducts furnishing an
economic and suitable food for swine.
A special exhibit will be made of
breeds adapted for the production Of
bacon. The secret of ''fattening hogs
lean" is the one that swine growers are
striving TO learn. and this exhibit will
be judged with special reference to
heir bacon producing qualities. 1t is
expected that not less than 100 ami
mails will be shown in the exhibit OF
swine. MARK BENNITT.

FORGET BUSINESS AT NIGHT.
That Is Tho Only Way to BE Sure of Doing
Your Best Work.

Your 1SeBt Work.
Every business man of common
sense knows, whether he chooses to ac-
knowledge it or not, that the further
away he gets in the evening from his
commercial associations during the
day, so that his business associates or
thoughts of it or them cannot get at
him, the healthier he is, the wiser life
he leads; in short, the better off he Is
in every respect and the ADLER for the
duties of the morrow" writes Edward
Box of 1.-The American Man and the
Country in the Ladies Home Journal.
Now, what does he get in the city in
the evening even If he lives Il carefully
regulated life? There is no mode of
life he can possibly follow which is in
any way recuperative to his mental or
physical being. He has never been out
of hearing of the noises of the city or
out of the range of its lights. Every
night he has slept in the polluted air
of the city, and in the morning has
looked out on the gray sidewalks which
he sees all day long. What does such
man know of the eXhilarating, re-
freshing and -quickening expert
ence of opening the shutters of his
chamber window upon n landscape Of
space and sunshine? And, what is far
worse, what do his wife and children
know of such blessing? Yet he de-
ludeS himself into the belief that he
must live in the city so as to be in
touch with things If you ask him
what those things are you invariably
| discover that they are of n business ma
ture-either strictly business or some
social convention which he feels haA a
bearing on his business. But it is al
ways business. business Now, man
| living under this pressure rarely does

lieves that he is doing it. But he cam

BEAUTY OF THE GLACIER.
Scenes That Give Hua Visions of an En-
chanted Iandscepe.

chanted Landscape.
The fascination of a glacier are as
witchtng as they are dangerous. ApOS-
tolic vision of a crystal city gloritied
by light that never was on land or
sea" was not more beautiful that these
vast ice rivers, whose onward course is
chronicled not by years and centuries,
but by geological ages. With white
domed snow-cornices wreathed fantas-
tic as arabesque, and with the CLASSY
walls Of emerald grottO rejecting mil
lion sparkling jewels, one might be in
some cayernous dream-world or among
the tottering grandeur of an ancient
city. The ice pillars and silvered pin
nacles, which scientists call seracs,
stand like the sculptured marble of
temples crumbling to ruin. Glittering
pendants hang from the rim of blush
chaSm. Tints too brilliant for artists
brush CLEAN from the turquoise or
crystal walls. Rivers that flow through
valleys of ice and lakes, hemmed in by
hills of ice shine with an azure depth
that is very intinity's self.
In the morning, when all thaw has
been stopped by the nights cold, there
Is deathly silence over the glacial fields,
even the mountain cataracts fall
noiselessly from the precipice to ledge
in tenuous, wind-blown threads. But
with the rising of the sun the whole
glacial world bursts to life in noisy
tumult. Surface rivulets brawl over
the ice with n glee that is vocal and al
most human The gurgle of rivers
flowing through subterranean tunnels
becomes roar, as of IL rushing, angry
sea. Ice grip no longer holds back
rock scree loosened by the nights
frost. and there is the reverberating
thunder of the falling avalanche.

Chronic Coughs and
Colds Are Catarrhal
Diseases.
Catarrh Is the Continual Scourge
of Christendom.
Diseases

Catarrh hovers ominously over every
city, and nestles treacherously in
every hamlet. 1t flies with vampire
wings from country to country and
casts a black shadow Of despair over
all lands. Its stealthy approach and
its lingering stay makes 1t dread to
the physician and pest to the patient.
1t changes the merry laugh of child
hood to the wheezy breathing Of
Group. and the song OF the blushing
maiden to the hollow cough of con-
sumption. In its witherins grasp the
rounded form of the fond wife and
mother becomes gaunt and spectral.
and the healthy flush of manhood
turns to the sallow, haggard visage Of
the invalid.
Cough takes the place of conversa-
tion, speech gives way to splitting. the
repulsive odors of chronic catarrh
poison the kiss of the fondest lovers,
and thickened membranes bedim
sight, impair hearing and destroy
taste.
