One Of the things that appear to
have been settled by the Boer war is
the disappearance from the British
army of the organization known as the
army corps. 1t Is stated authoritative

ployed in the field. The army corps
sent to South Africa went to pieces i'm

La grippe Is, strictly speaking, cpl
demic catarrh-that is to say, a variety
of acute catarrh which is SO contagi-
GUS and runs a course more or less
definite, the same as scarlet fever
whooping cough, etc.
During the acute stages OF la grippe
1t is not very fatal disease, but the
condition in which 1t leaves the sys-
tenn has caused tho death of count
less number.
Indeed nearly every person who has
had la grippe within the last three
years finds himself more or less de-
ranged by the pernicious effects of this
disease. The majority of those who
have escaped death find life scarcely
worth living.
If this vast multitude Of people could
only know with what certainty and
promptness Peruna would relieve them
Of all the bad effects which la grippe
has brought upon them, what an untold
amount of suffering would be averted!

Initiated His Mother.

AS the child is so the man is a state
ment that has proved its truth, and as
the man is SO is the child. is just as
true. This was amply proved yesterday
when a little tacker followed hts
mother in Grand avenue and in other
ways. He was just at that size when
he is really too small to wear trousers,
but just the same has them on, real
cute little fellow as the girls say cute.
And he wore over his tiny trousers )
long cloak that brushed his shoe tops.
Now, the weather, as may be remem-
bered, was sloppy, so his mother, after
the manner Of her kind, gathered her
skirts up at the two sides with her two
hands, and what must the diminutive
specimen at her side do but gather his

onward, not knowing, nor caring,
where. Vaguely he had in his
mind a saloon some blocks away.
The barkeeper had known him in
his PALMER days, and he had never
asked him for favor. Perhaps he
could get enough for him to pay for
a nights lodging. If that were de-

turned into street running at right

quite hidden in doorway, was little
girl, waif, who eked out precarious
existence by selling gum ami matches.
She was asleep. Her wares were scat

made little mounds near her. Some
times flake would fall on her face.
But the poor child felt them not. Nc
Dowell halted and looked at the peace

Those obstructionists of the Senate
Achi, Brown and Carter, and what a

mined if possible to prevent any legis-

the Independents to settle at once
upon what legislation they propose to
consider first and drive it through
even if they have to adopt a two

come such partizans that they carry
a partizanship above good of the peo-

Independents have sufficient numbers
to carry whatever they desire through
the Senate and if they hope to com
mand the confidence of the people
they will get to work in the Senate at
once and compel the three obstruc-
tionists to fall into line or be ridden
down roughshod. Such tactics as
have been employed so far by this trio
can be played by both sides to the
discontinue of the minority, and if the
Republicans are given dose of their

it will be well deserved for following
such blind and senseless leaders as
they have set themselves to follow.

STORING OF CABBAGE.
Can PercOlate Quite Freely BE-
tween the Heads

The conditions requisite for sorting
cabbage successfully are a dry, cool,
we'll ventilated place. If the outd DOR
cellar can be we'll ventilated and kept
cool, and yet above the freezing point,
there is no reason why it cannot be
used for storing cabbage. Cabbage,
however, must not be stored in large
bins or in large masses, but must be
so placed that the air can percolate
through between the cabbage heads.
To secure these conditions vertical
bins should be constructed in the eel
lar, so that the cabbages may be piled
up in bins not more than two or three
feet in width. Between the bins pas
sageway of perhaps Is inches should be
left for air circulation. Were the cab
bages to be piled in the cellar in large
bins, as potatoes are usually stored,
they would probably decay, but if they
can be put into vertical narrow bins as
above described, there is no reason
why the outdoor cellar should not fur
nish ideal conditions. If they are
stored in this way it must n OF be expect
Gu IAs'I tAey VII heeP untll late spring,
but they must be disposed of during
the winter. Where cabbages are to
be kept in small way for family use
they may be placed on the ground,
heads down. and covered over with
straw or stalks. The covering will keep
them from freezing and they can be
removed at any time during the VIM
ter. Cabbage should not be covered
over with earth and should not, under
any conditions, be put where free ven-
tilation cannot be secured.

HUMAN MONKEY OF JAVA.
Professor Haeckel Gives Some Inter.
esting Information About the
STRANGE Animal

Prof. Haeckels latest publica ion
contains some curious informa ton
about the human monkey of Java, a
most interesting specimen of which
was watched by Prof. Haeckel at his
own house in Java, writes the London
correspondent of the Chicago Inter
Ocean. The species is found only in
Java, and is called hylobates leuciseus.
The natives call it GA on account Of the
characteristic sound it utters. When
standing it is scarcely taller than a
child of six years. The head is COM
paratively small, and it has a small,
slender waist. The legs are short and
the arms much longer. The face is
more human than that of the orang-
outang. Prof. Haecke1 says:
''Its physiognomy reminded me of
the manager of an insolvent bank
pond ering with wrinkled brow over the
results of a crash. Distrust of the GA
toward all white Europeans is very
noticeable. On the other hand, he was
on terms of intimate friendship with
the Malays in our household, especial
ly with the small children. He never
crawled on all tours when tired of run
ming, but stretched on the grass be-
meath the tropical sun with one arm
under his head.
''When I held tasty food just out of
his reach he cried, like a naughty child,
'Huite, huite,' sound altogether diff
ferent from 'oa, Ca with which he ex-
pressed various emotions. He had a
third and more shrill sound when he
was suddenly frightened. The speech
of these human monkeys has not many
different sounds, but they are mod
ulated and altered in tone and siren 9Th
with number of repetitions. They
also use many gestures, motions with
their hands, and grimaces, which are
so expressive in manner that careful
observer can detect their different
wishes and various emotio ms.
my specimen liked sweet wine. He
grasped cup in both hands and drank
like child. He peeled bananas and
oranges just as we are customed to
do, holding the fruit in his left hand.
Most of the Malays do not regard the
GA and orang-outang as brutes. They
believe the former are bewitched men
and the latter criminals who have been
changed to monkeys as punishment.
Others think they are men in the
course of metempsychosis."- Chicago

ROADS AND CREAMERIES.
NO Dwcller I'm the Country Needs I'M.
proved Highways More Than
the Dairyman.

The question of good roads in any
farming community is all important
but it is relatively much more impor.
tant in country in which live stock
is kept numerously, and especially in
which dairying is conducted on the
creamery or cheese plan, writes Prof.
Thomas Shaw, in the Farmer. The
difference to the parties who have to
draw the milk is very great at certain
seasons of the year. The grain grower
wants good roads more than at any
time in the year when he draws ava Y
his grain. and that is usually in the a u
tumn. In the autumn the roads are
usually good. But the grower of dairy
stock wants good roads all the year
ii his milk is to go to the factory. In
a locality without gravel it will be
difficult indeed for him to get such
roads at certain seasons. What can't
be mended at such seasons will have
to be borne. But where gravel is with
in a reasonable distance it is different.
1t may be asked what is a reasonabl
distance? There may be much differ
ence of opinion in regard to that, but
we will venture the statement, within
three miles of the extreme limit where
it is to be laid down; of course the
closer the better. When it has to be
drawn further than the distance
named. the time spent in hauling is
considerable. But there may be sit
uations when it would pay to draw the
gravel even further. 1t is we'll to have
the road well rounded up before the
gravel is applied, SO that the gravel
will not sink down where it will re nder
but little service. When gravel can
thus be obtained and of good quality.
parties should not grudge drawing it..
1t would pay the farmers we'll to give
two or three days with their teams
at certain seasons of the year in order
that they may have better roads. By
the above statement it is meant that
they should give such time over and
above what they are required to do
by law.

roadside planting is impracticable for
public roads through the country and
must be confined to cities and small
villages and to private drives or
lanes. One great objection to close
roadside, planting along country
roads is that the continual shade
keeps the road in a soft condition
after rains, and allows it to become
badly cut up by vehicles, thus de-
handing "a great deal more repairing
than other like pieces of road where
there are no trees. On private roads,
however, where there is little or no
heavy hauling, or where the hauling
can be regulated to suit the weather
conditions, this objection would not
necessarily hold true.
The accompanying picture shows
the pleasing effect Of planting along
private driveway. The driveway
shown is. at the state hospital for
the insane at Columbus, O. Such
planting is not only great protec-
ton from the heat of summer, but
in winter the trees act as wind.
