"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM 1T is with pleasure that

1Suii | 12 fr,,In Top Down.

Because oj delay in the delivery Of the great granite blocks which are to form the exterior of the lower floors of the new building of the Atlantic Insurance Company at Wall and Will liam streets. says the New York Sun the contractor has gone ahead with the brick work on the upper floors leaving the lo:Ter part in skeleton form. The effect is very peculiar and gives .he building a topheavy appear ance. The outside of the upper floors, except the decorating and general cleaning up, is all done and this part of the structure is entirely inclosed. Below there is nothing but the steel framework which continues down to the ground. People stand on the cor ners and look at the building curious ly every day. The contractor said that while it was rarely necessary to do the work from the top down it was not the first time he had had to do it on account of delay in the delivery of the heavy stone. It is a pert actly safe thing to do, he says.

Strange Provender.

When no other feed is obtainable enough water to make them easily drinkable, have great staying power, but few horses would take this, how ever hungry, unless they had at some previous time been made accustomed to it. have known horses, when there was little grass, habitually rob the camp of fresh, salt or dried meat. It is even more certain that no horse would touch flesh unless at some time accustomed to it,
 What strange food graminivorous animals will eat when habituated to it is almost beyond belief. In Iceland horses and cattle are frequently fed on dried fish. I have known sheep eat meat, fruit, bread, pastry and the like and even tobacco in considerable quan- tIty without harm ensuing During the early times of the diggings, when gold was being found in large quantities and horse feed, beyond the grass, was not procurable, many of the rich claim holders fed the horses used in thei: work on the mine with bread sooner than suffer delay Bread even unleav- oned, is better food for horses than raw flour and water, but it takes time to prepare and is rarely available on an emergency, while flour is much more likely to be. In Singapore it is not uncommon for horses to be given a loaf of bread soaked with a bottle of beer, which they eat greedily.- temporary Review

CHARGE FOR FRESH AIR,
Experiences of Family Who Were
 Travelling in Germany,

Many have been the doleful stories of travellers returned from Europe anent the extortionate charges inn posed upon long-suffering Americans in the lands across the Atlantic. And now comes a distinguished Chieagoan who declares that in Germany recently he was charged for fresh air. With his wife and family he was journeying in railway train. The air in the stuf- fly little compartment becoming stale, the wife of the Chicagoan asked him to communicate with the guard In each compartment in European trains is handle connected with bell rope leading to the guards cab. Near the handle is posted notice warning pas sengers that the guard is not to be summoned except in dsperate cases, such as murder, etc, under penalty The Chicagoan could not read German, but he knew that his wife wanted fresh air. so he gave the grip a lusty pull. The train, which was an express, slackened speed and finally came to a full stop. The guard and the engine driver rushed back excitedly, expecting to discover something very dire in- deed. By virtue of signs the Chica- goan explained what he wanted Thereat he was greeted with storm of abuse, and he was very near being threatened with personal violence However, the guard and the engine driver returned to their posts and the train proceeded. When the Chicagoan and his party arrived at their destina- tion he was met at the railway station by jabbering mob of officials, who promptly hauled him before an august functionary, who managed to inform him that his little gayety with the bell cord would cost him just 30 marks, which he ust pay or go to prison The Chicagoan took the former alter native.

sends Help to Galveston.
 The Galveston disaster is not the first great appeal to the hearts and the pockets of the people of the Unit ed States. When Jacksonville, Fla, was suffering from yellow fever in 1888 donations amounting to $510, ,S29.90 were made, besides the priceless saeri fees of human lives offered by nurses and doctors from all the country over. Damage to the amount of $5,000 900 was done by the Charleston carIhquako in 1886. Contributions to the extent of S646, 109 were made. Almost S20,000 came from Europe. About $100,00 of the money was used in building hos pital and S400,000 in repairing the homes of the poor. Until the wreck at Galveston the Johnstown disaster Of July 31, 1889, was the most awful in the history of the country and pro- duced an immediate outpouring of re- lief funds never before paralleled. VIII Galveston recover? Johnstown did. It was in 1880 town of less than 10000 inhabitants It has now 32,000-almost as many as Galveston itself before the flood And one of the first contribu- tions for Galveston's relief came from Johnstown, HOW prosperous city, New York World.

those Oskaloosa soldiers can have 50
many dear ones at home, to whom

to enter into, "entangling alliances"
here. Promises to correspond are
common and the Council Bluffs mail
is to be much increased by the Oska-

it is not their fault that their COM
pany is the favorite company of the
regiment but advice to the girls at
home may be timely and the means
of aEerting trouble in the future.
Council Bluffs youth are insanely
jealous of the Company F lads and
have sworn to be avenged. The
chance will come next year when the

be in Oskaloosa But then OskaloOsa

Council Blaffs, Aug. 81.

Il was hot day at Camp Dodge
Monday. The mercury stood at 81
degrees in the shade but there is no
shade on the camp grounds and the
heat was quite intense. There was a
fairly good breeze stirring however
and this made things somewhat
easier on the boys. Drill was severe,
nevertheless and there were numer-
GUS cases of heat prostration in the
several companies of the regiments.
A number of these occurred in the
afternoon as the result of the sham
1 battle that was commenced by
Colonel Lincoln on field of several
hundred acres extent southeast OF
the camp grounds. The men fell in
their tracks as though badly wounded
and the hospital corps had more than

space for the 5tst regiment in ex-

satisfaction of both officers and men,
and there will be DO further difficulty
in this direction. Both the property
owners who had objected Saturday
came forward Sunday and said that
Colonel Lincoln might continue in
the use of their lands. Other large
tracts of land near to the camp and
suitable FOR drill were found and can
be used. Col. Lincoln now has the
entire Missouri river valley at his
command if he desires it.

The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1901-11-05

The writer was quite surprised some
time Ago., at a convention. in which
l.. H. Kerrick read a paper on the
cheap production Of beef and how to
get high prices for 1t, to hear him
say that there would be for him no
profit in it. were it not that he has
hogs to follow the steers, and utilize
the corn they do not digest. When
a successful beef raiser like Mr.. Ker-
rick pays that tribute to the value
of the hog, it is time that every beef
maker gave the hog the place he right
ly merits on the farm. Under exist
ing conditions no profit can be made
out OF beef growing except by the as
sistance OF the hog. This is a truth
that some Of our beef producers do not
like to acknowledge. but 1t is a truth
that seems to have been pretty fully
demonstrated, at least In the west.
Above all things it applies to the great
region OF country where corn in its
unground state is the principal food in
addition to the pasture and other
roughage.
