The Truth About Solomon.

A little girl tells the world what she
knows about King Solomon in the fol-
lowing essay: liking Solomon was a
man who lived ever so many years ago
and in the country in which he gov.
erned he was the whole push. He was
an awful wise man and one day two
women came to him holding onto the
leg of baby and nearly pulling it in
two, and both claiming it, and as King
Solomon wasn't feeling right good, he
said: "Why couldn't the brat nave
been twins and saved all this bother?'
Then he called for his sword and was
going to chop the brat in two and give
each one piece, when the one who
was the real mother said, "Stop Solo
mon, stay thy hand and let the old hog
have it. If / can't have a whole baby
1 don't want none at ALL" Then Solo
mon told her to 60 home and wash Its
face for he knew it was hers, and hi
told the other one to go and chase hel
face. King Solomon built Solomon.
temple and was father of all the Ma
sons. He had 700 wives and 200 lady
friends, and that is why there are 81
many masons in the world. My paps
says he thinks King Solomon was 1
warm member and 1 think he was no
stuff myself"

vestment. Lawrence Barrett, during
his grand struggle through numberless
difficulties, was backed by some of the
business men of Boston. Viola Allen,
who has electrified this country and at
the present time is the talk of the en-
tire east, in "The Christian" was fur

the coast with more ease. Theatrical

lost Brothers. Voice in Graphophone.

Lost Brothers. Voice in Graphophone.
On the 14th day of May, 1881, George
Remington, brother of Peter Hem
ington, of Galesburg, Mich, enlisted in
the regular army and disappeared.
Persistent inquiry failed to discover his
whereabouts, the only fact to be ascer-
tanned being that of his discharge for
disability soon after his enlistment.
Three months since Peter was in
Kalamazoo, where, by chance, he took
in an exhibition of which a grapha-
phone formed part. Among other
features was a fragment from the play,
1.-THE Three Guardsmen," during the
rendering of which one of the char
acters developed a peculiar and scarcely
noticeable stammer. Upon the re-
quest of Mr.. Remington this part was
repeated, and that gentlemen became
convinced that it was the voice of his
long absent brother, who had pre-.
cisely similar impeachment in his speech.
Since the above occurrence the clew
has been persistently followed, and re.
Gently the two brothers were reunited
after nineteen years.-Landrk Gazette.

Standard Food and What it Will Do

If fed regularly it will strengthen
the organs of secretion and assimila-
ton. This aids digestion, thus extract
ing increased nutriment from all food
stuffs. To this fact thousands among
the best feeders of Iowa, Nebraska and
Kansas certify. When animals, run
ming upon grass, are fed q small grain
ration, with Standard Food added,
they get more nutriment out of the
grain and eat more grass.
In some tests made under such cir
cumstances the extra grain at only 1c
per pound has been enough to pay for
the Standard Food used. In no case
have been used, and hogs or cattle
have been fed Standard Food regu-
larly, with the same amount of grain,
has the extra gain cost more than q
cent per pound. Scores upon scores of
the better class of feeders testify to
this.
Standard food puts finer finish upon
an animal thsn can be done without
it. If you doubt this write to COM
mission men and see what they say
about it. All intelligent feeders admit
that steers, pigs and other meat-prO-
ducing animals are but mills wherein
you put a certain amount of feed and
take out beef, pork, mutton, &c. To
get better mills they let the old-time
scrub 90 and bred to thoroughbred
sires. Some were scoffert and hest
tated to pay the price until they were
outstripped by their more enterprising
neighbors. Then they wondered why
they so foolishly waited so long. Now
we are Offering you another innovation,
something to increase the product OF
the better mills-at a cost much less
than the increased product will bring.
Again, some will scoff while others
will buy Standard Food, feed it regu.
larly and make money Understand,
I say regularly, for, if, fed now and
then, and 50lbs. spread over where 20C
lbs. should be used there may be inn
proved conditions but no profit can
come from such course.
| Investigate feed regularly-use the
scales if you are doubtful-and 9
searching Investigation will make you
what 95 out of every 100 similar in
vestigators have become, viz'-firm be-
