Story of a Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George d. Williams
of Manchester. Mich, tells how such
a slave was made free. He says: "Mv
wife has been so helpless for five years
that she could not turn over in bed
alone. After using two bottles of
Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully
improved and able to do her own
work" This supreme remedy for fe-
male diseases quickly cures nervous
ness. SleeplesSnesS. melancholy, head
ache, backache, fainting and dizzy
spells. This miracle working medi-
cine is gOdsend to weak, sickly, rum
down people. Every bottle guaran-
teed. Only 80 cents. Sold by Jones

of which SIX are big sleeping cars.
When the new double track is done
we will arrange to run our trains by
way of the reduced grades, and use
the old track, with its heavy grades,
so trains will be run down instead of

a saving of many thousands of dollars
each year in the item OF coal alone,
not taking into account the freedom
from accident and expensive delays

J. B. Kelly tried last season what
was practically the Campbell soil cul-
ture method in the propagation of
alfalfa on his land east of his resi-
dence, and as a result has fine stand.
In the spring the ground was thor
oughly plowed and pulverized, and
after each rain he stirred the top of
the ground, breaking the capillary
connection with the soil beneath and
making a perfect mulch. In August
he sowed his alfalfa and, although it
was very dry until winter set in, the
alfalfa came up in nice shape and has
made an excellent stand. Contrasted
with this is the condition of a patch
that Mr.. Ham put into alfalfa. next
to Mr.. Kelly's. He did not pillow I'M
til the weeds were high, but the seed
was sown at the same time. Scarcely
any of it has grown. This shows the
superiority of the soil-culture
method, which everybody should
follow. Record.

"ThirtY years ago last week coal oil

of that date there is not a word said
about the octopus which was stFang-
ling the poor farmers to death by
these exorbitant prices for the neces-
saries and comforts of life. No one
kicked against the Standard Oil
trust, the sugar trust or the coffee
trust, and no one called public atten-

was paying these cut throat prices he
was only getting so cents a bushel

1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear one suffer while awaiting
the arrival of the doctor. An Albany
IN. W dairyman called at a drug
store there for IA doctor to come and
see his child, then very sick with
Group. Not finding the doctor in, he
left word for him to come at once on
his return. He also bought a bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some re-
lief until the doctor should arrive. In
a few hours he returned, saying the
doctor need not come, as the child
was much better. The druggist, Mr..
Otto Scholz, says the family has since
recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy to their neighbors and
friends until he has a constant de-
maDd for it from that part of the
country. For sale by Jones s. Gibson,

The large and increasing circulation
of the Live Stock Indicator in this
county is a matter for congratulation
to the publishers and to good farming
for, of all the papers of its class in the
county, it is easily the best and most
helpful. Its special Farmers Insti-
tute editions, issued with the regular
edition the first week in each month,
have been for years the admiration of
all practical farmers. Written wholly
by farmers, they are full of actual ex-
perience and smell of the soil. We
have been fortunate enough this sea-
son to secure terms for The Indicator
and its Special Farmers Institute
Editions, together with The Poultry
Farmer and The Farmers Mutual In
surance Journal, four of the most val
liable farm publications in the coun-
try, that enable us to offer the four
in connection with our own paper for
9S1. 251
for the entire five, one year. This is
emphatically good thing, and no
farmer in this county should fail to
take advantage of the offer. For a
large line of thoroughly practical
farm reading nothing has ever been
offered before that equals it. A coun-
ty paper, farm paper, a poultry pa
per. a farm insurance paper and the
Special Farmers Institute, all tor

The idea of a small town mus

The idea of a small town mus
essarilY depend upon a very lin
amount of trade is altogether errOue-
Gus. Just as soon as any town gets d
reputation as money saver fer ur-
chasers, just so soon as the farmer b =
comes convinced that he can get as
much or a little more for his money,
that town will, no matter how small,
draw trade. There is nothing so sure
to bring a customer to your store a
second time as to give him a bargain
the first time. Two business transaC-
tions with a moderate profit make
more money than one deal with a
large gain. And if merchants will

Here are two little stories going the
rounds of the Kansas press: A school
teacher in Troy wrote these letters
on the blackboard: lady only she
connected them. Then she inquired
of the class il any of them knew what
the letters spelled, but no one knew.
Then the teacher says: "What will
all these little girls be some day." A
bright little one shouted 'Mammas."
The class was dismissed and the
teacher got red in the face. The par
ents of a Topeka 5-year-old boy have
a habit of spelling words in their con-
versation which they do not want him
to understand. He has a birthday
