sown in this way it should be sown as
carly as possible, so as to have hot
weather in which to cure it. Or it
may be planted in drill rows and har-

The Absence of II.

If there is any truth in the saying that hap
piness is the absence of all pain, mental and
physical, the enjoyment of it can only be
found in heaven. But SO far as the physical
is concerned it is within easy reach at least
measurably SO, as far as cure will go. The
sum of human misery in this line is made up
of greater or less degrees of physical suffering.
The minor aches and pains which affiict man
Kind are easy to reach and as easily cured.
There are none in the whole category, which,
if taken in time, cannot be cured. They must
in some form affiict the nerves, the bones, the
muscles and joints of the human body. They
are all more or less hurtful and wasteful to
the system. st. Jacobs Oil is made to cure
them, to search cut hidden pain spots, and to
cure promptly in a true remedial and lasting
way. Very, very many have not known hap
oiness for years till they used it, and very
many are putting off cure and happiness be-
cause they dom use 1t.

stock Il Olm's Rat-Tail Bounty,

Last February the Municipal Coun
ell CT Stockholm passed an ordinance
Offering to pay three cents for every
rat-tail that was brought to the Police
Headquarters. Rats had become so
numerous as to imperil the health as
well as the comfort OF the population,
and sanitary officials attributed to
them the spread of contagious dis
eases. therefore war of eXtermina-
ton was decided upon, bounty was
offered, and up to July 81 more than
100000 tails have been brought il by
the rat catchers. Several men went
into the business ana advertised in the
newspapers offering to i'd premises
that were afflicted by the nuisance for
nominal Fee. Thus they doubled
the earnings, ana made a profitable

but the bounty has been reduced to a
cent and half per rat. Even at that
price the rat catchers can make good

Defenseless America.

America has an army of less than
100000 men, with 4 short supply of
officers, and no reserves either of SOL
diers or of material, says Brooks
Adams in the Atlantic. At the mere
rumor of war 100000 men would have
to leave the country to garrison Cuba,
Porto Rico, the canal, the Philippines,
and Hawaii. More ought to go, If
more could be obtained. But to send
100000 men abroad would strip the
Union bare. Even the ports would be
defended by militia, and no reinforce
ments would be at hand to supply
the waste in the tropics. Such garri-
sons could hardly stand against the
overwhelming mass of troops which
could be concentrated against them.
The navy is even feebler in proper
ton to the task which would be re-
quired of it. The United States has
100000 tons of warships built or build

The bodies of uead animals are con-
verted into fertilizer by some farmers,
but something depends upon clrcum-
stances as to the advisability of so do
ing. If an animal dies of some con-
tagious disease, and is buried, the
earthworms will bring to the surface
the germs of the disease. This fact
was demonstrated by Pasteur, the ia
nous French chemist, who made
tests in that direction. Disease was
communicated to animals that ate
grass which grew over the body of a
buried animal. The better plan is to
consume the bodies of diseased ami
mails, or subject them to a bath OF
sulphuric acid, after death, in order
to destroy the germs of disease.
