A very successful surgical operation
was performed by DR.. Y. j. Mason last
Sunday afternoon. The operation
consisted in the removal of tumor
from the neck of +. f. Quelle, the
blacksmith. Mr.. Quelle stood the
operation in good shape and is now
rapidly recovering from the effects at
the home of MIR. and Mrs. August
Fischer. DR.. Mason was assisted by
G. Lavelle and j. r Spencer.
Reports show a greatly increased
death rate from throat and lung troub-
les, due to the prevalence of Group.
pneumonia and grip. We advise the
use of One Minute Cough Cure in all
of these difficulties. 1t is the only
harmless remedy that gives immedi-
ate results. Children like to take it.
G. Lavelle.
The country residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. L. F. Fairchld was considerably
damaged by fire last Monday eiening
The fire originated from an overheated
stove. When discovered the interior
of the house was in flames, but by
heroic efforts upon the part OF the fire
department and others the building
was not destroyed. The loss upon
furniture and building will reach sew
eral hundred dollars.
For the weakness and prostration
following grippe there is nothing so
prompt and effective as One Minute
Cough Cure. This preparation is
highly endorsed as an unfailing RENE
dy for all throat and lung troubles and
its early use prevents consumption.
1t was made to cure quickly. g. La

Upon motion of the defendants at

failed to agree upon verdict. The
charge was disturbing the peace.

MODERN ENGLAND.

Contrasting the England of today
with the England Of forty years
ago E. l.. Godkin says in the New
York Evening Post: "The poor
man in England who had ever left
his home then was somewhat of a
prodigy; now nearly half of his sub
stance goes in excursion fares. A
dissenting minister used to be an
object of adherence and contempt; !;
now he is quoted in parliament by
politicians. A lord used to be an
object of dread and reverence; now
he is hardly better than a foreign
count. In the England that l re-
member third class passengers on
the then newly built railroads stood
in boxes like cattle; now they sit on
cushioned seats, the third class cars
being so like the first class that the
gentry have largely taken to using
them. The loveliest parts of the
country at this summer season are
thronged with excursionists, and it
is fair to say that there are no lon
ger secluded spots in England"

Duse's Pecullarities,

Eleanora Duse, the famous Ital-
ian actress, is peculiarly nervous.
When she is not at rehearsals or
acting, she spends her time in per-
feet rest. She receives no one ex-
cept old friends and only a few of
these. She has a lady companion,
who arranges her journeys and en-
cages rooms in the hotels. This
lady sees that Duse's rooms are at
the back of the hotel and that, if
possible, they look out on a garden.
She cannot bear street sounds and
sights. The changing of a train bell
sets her crazy. The furnishing of
her rooms is important. There
must be no pictures or bUsts
about, nothing to disturb her high
ly wrought aesthetic sensibilities.
Everything must be scrupulously
clean, severe, quiet. She never goes
out walking and is ridiculously care
less about her toilet and her per-
sonal appearance, except on the
stage.-Tit-Bits.

Pasturlng Sheep With Cows.

Some one who claims to know says
that of about 600 varieties of weeds
that are common In our fields sheep
are known to eat 515 varieties, while
horses eat but few of each, says
American Cultivator. If we do not
vouch for this as being exactly correct,
we know that sheep destroy many
weeds that our other farm animals do
not care for or will not eat unless
starved to it, and this Is why we claim
that from four to six sheep can be kept
in pasture with each COW and they
win eat what the COW leaves, and by
the destruction OF weeds and the ferti-
lizer they leave In the field will enable
the pasture to furnish better feed for
the cows than they would have If the
sheep were not there, at least after the
sheep have run with them one year.

MnrIseting Honey.

Never send out sections of which
wood or comb is not perfectly clean
and neat looking, or If such must be
sold do not put name or address on 1t.
but let 1t sell on its merits, says Amer
lean Cultiyator. The honey may be as
good as some that looks better, but it
will not sell as readily or attract GUS
toners as quickly. The same Is true Of
imperfectly filled sections, which are
usually worth more to use for bees
food in winter or spring than they will
sell for Having neat and clean look
ing sections of comb honey, they will
deserve clean crates for shipment. Use
no soap boxes. saleratus boxes or the
like, but get well made crates to hold
~ is or "a sections in crate, and
better If the crate is glass upon one
side.

A iealthfuI Tree.

DR.. Bentafeld, who has lived for
twenty-seven years in Tasmania, as
cribes the healthfulness of that
island, where, according to his tes-
timony, consumption and bronchitis
are almost unknown, in large part
to the eucalyptus trees, whose odor
is everywhere apparent. The vola-
tile essence of the eucalyptus oil
appears to have an aseptic effect
upon deleterious germs of all kinds.
The trees sometimes attain great
size. One that has been measured
is $50 feet tall, and some are said
to attain a height of 400 feet.

Marion's Reply.

Marion is a winning little chat
terbox who has seen four summers,
and she displays marked aptitude
for learning the slang phrases and
words which she hears used by the
servants in the household or the
boys Oh the street. Of late her
chatter has been so literally inter-
spersed with slang that her mother
decided some admonition was neces-
sary. At the breakfast table the
other morning she said Marion,
yop must stop using those slang
wofds: DO you understand mep"
Sure, Mike" was the prompt
but disconcerting reply.-Brooklyn
