POULTRY SHOW.

Splendid Exhibit to BE Made at In
Pan.American Exposition.
> In planning a great Exposition of the
magnitude of the Pan-American, to be
held in Buffalo next summer, where all
the gSeat industries of the United States
will be represented by exhibits which
will be Of the best quality and charac-
ter that can be produced, the wisdom
of the management is shown In the
magnificent preparations that are be-
ing made for the Division of Live
Stock.
In no line of breeding domestic ami
mails has greater strides been @A2s
than in the poultry industry, and, while
the interest taken in the Live Stock d.
vision of the Exposition by prospective
exhibitors is very encouraging the
poultrymen of the United States and
Canada are manifesting an interest
that is truly phenomenal. The poultry
men in the past few years have seen
the industry double many times until
today 1t exceeds in value any single
farm crop. The annual sale of eggs,
poultry and fancy birds for breeding
in the United States and Can.
ada exceeds $1,OOO,O O0,O 600. The pro-
posed show ut the Pan-American will
be fully adequate to the great interests
involved. The time of this show will
be most propitious to the fanciers-Oct
%21-31-and the accommodations will be
all that are desired. The stables, Gov
ering ten acres, will all be devoted to
the poultry and pet stock show.

SHE WAS PLAIN WITH HIM.

Aunt Sally Gave the Minister Some
thing to Think About.
Two women in the early part of the
last century lived In Virginia. They
were noted for their common sense,
and many of their sprightly sayings
are quoted and enjoyed to this day.
They were both Methodists, and their
house was a place of resort for the
clergy of that denomination. OF one
Of the women, known as Aunt Sally,
the following story is told:
She had a black silk dress which she
was accustomed to slip on when she
attended church. 1t seems that once,
while conference was being held near
her house, a Methodist minister who
had enjoyed her hospitality and was
saying goodby ventured to remon-
strate against her use of costly ap-
parel.
>"Well. Aunt Sally" said he, "you
have been very kind to me and my
wife during our stay at your house,
and we appreciate your kindness. We
shall never forget it. But, my dear
sister. before parting with you I must
say that it has troubled my wife and
myself very much to sec you a dew
otee to the fashion Of the world. l
notice with pain that you wear your
silk dress every day to church, con-
trary to the rules of our order, and l
hope that hereafter you will refrain
from, such a display Of worldly mind
edness. ! also hope you will pardon
me for calling your attention to it."
"My dear brother" said Aunt Sally,
II did not know that my plain black
silk was troubling anybody. 1t hangs
up there behind the door, and as It
needs no washing it is always ready to
slip on when company comes or when
! go to church. and I find it very
handy. :
"But, my dear brother, since you
have been plain with me I must be
plain with you. Since you and your
wife have been staying here l and my
cook have some days had to stay at
home and be absent from church be-
cause we were doing up the white
dresses of your wife that she might
look well at the conference. Pardon
me for explaining, and when you and
your wife come this way call again.

The prominent display in the Divi-
sion Of Agriculture at the Pan-Ameri-
can Exposition will be the magnet that

ricultural work, showing the advan-
tages of different processes and meth
DDS of work and the products Of the

under all sorts of conditions. Under
their proper classifcations will be
shown methods of fertilization, farm
management and processes, expert
ments with various crops in different
soils, climate, etc.; reports from DIFF
ferent states and provinces showing
the aggregate Of crops and products of
all kinds; exhibits Of all products of

TWO WAY. Of Telling 1t,

Once upon a time q king in his sleep
dreamed that oil of his teeth fell out
before hilr n by ne.
He summoned a soothsayer and ask
ed him to interpret the dream.
The soothsayer said, 20 king, the
meaning of thy dream is that thy fam
lily and relatives shall die in thy pres
ence, one by one, till all are gone"
The king a very angry at that and
sent the s%oothsayer ut once to prison.
Then he sent for another soothsayer
and again asked for a Interpretation
Of the dream.
The so%othsayer made answer, 20
king, the Interpretation Of thy dream
Is that thy family and relatives shall
die, one by one, and thou thyself shalt
outlive them ALL"
With this answer the king showed
approval and commanded that a pres
ent be given to the interpreter, and
that he should be sent home with
honor.-"Persian Tales" in Century.

lance, and great progress has been
made within a decade along this line.
Indeed it may perhaps be said that the
subject has become almost a science in
itself, and certainly in its relations to
the daily life Of the people its impor-
lance cannot be too much emphasized.
The exhibit at the Pan-American Ex-
position, which is under the immediate
supervision of DR.. Jacob s. Otto, an au-
thority in this branch Of science, will
comprise such subjects al physical cul-
ture, and the apparatus used in various
institutions for this purpose-hospitals
and dispensaries, boards of h~ealth-and
their functions, foods, their chemistry,
preservation and adulteration; mechan-
ical methods of sanitation and sanitary
architecture. The improved methods
introduced into municipal departments
in recent years will be shown as graph
ically as possible. In many cases mod
els will be used for this purpose. Maps

THE LIBERAL ARTS.
NOTABLE EXHIBIT TO Be MADE Az
THE PAN-AMERIcAN.

Vast Field Covered by the Exhibit
and the Methods to BE Followed In
Its Illustration mt the Exposition at
buffalo Next Summer.
The building which is to house the
exhibit in manufactures and liberal
arts at the Pan-American Exposition
at Buffalo will be one of the most i'm
posing in the splendid group surround
ing the Court Of Fountains. This build
ing is 500 by $50 feet, with a central
court and having a dome 20 feet in d.
ameter over the entrance on the south.
Manufactured products and those IL
Illustrating the liberal arts are so closely
allied that they naturally are classified
in the same general group, and at the
great .expositions of recent years they
have been housed under the same roof.
Under the general classification of lib
eral arts are included such subjects as
those of education and social economy,
books, periodicals, scientific apparatus,
hygiene and sanitation, musical instru-
ments, public works, civil engineering,
constructive architecture, photographs
and Photographic supplies, medical,
dental and surgical apparatus and 9th
er branches of intellectual activity. In
deed 1t Is the most progressive and no.
bic of the tendencies and achievements
of this dge of enlightenment and civili-
cation which are represented in the ex-
hibits of this division of q great expo
sition.
The work Of collecting and classify
ing the Liberal Arts exhibit for the
Pan-American Exposition is now well
under way and is in charge of DR.. Sc
lin H. Peabody, whose successful han
ding Of the same division at the great
Columbian Exposition Of 1898 marks
him as the best qualified man on the
American continent for the discharge
of such q task.
The exhibits of the Liberal Arts divi-
sion as we'll as those Of other depart
ments will be concentrated and repre-.
sentative rather than vast in extent
and exhaustive in scope. Most crafty
ing progress has been made since the
Worlds Fair at Chicago in methods Of

stiles and colleges of the United States
and other Pan-American countries. The
educational exhibit will give special
attention to exemplifying this great
progress and showing the present state
of our educational institutions. It is
the intention to have models prepared
representing the equipments of schools,
colleges and universities. The exhibit
made by the United States in the Paris
exposition will be removed to Buffalo
for the Pan-American and will be sup
plemented with additional exhibits.
Closely related to the educational ex-
hibit will be those in social economy
and In hygiene and sanitation. Under
the head of social economy will be in
cluded such subjects as charities and
correction, cooperative associations
and trades unions, apprenticeship and
child labor, protection of workingmen
in factories and mines, workingmen's
dwellings,, etc.

Catar1h has become such a common
disease that a person entirely free from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing more serious than a bad cold,
q simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and
very dangerous disease if not at first, it
very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
the general circulation is carried to all
parts of the system.
