Rev. TrlR. Hicks Is Not Dead.

Notwithstanding awide!y currant rumor that
the Rev. IrI Z. Hicks was dead, he never was
in better health, and never did a harder and
more successful years work than that one j"st
closing, He has just completed his large and
sul ndid Almanac for 1902 and, with his staff
OF able helpers, has brought his journal,
WORD AND WoRKs, justly forward into inter
national reputation. For quarter OF centu-
nv MIR. Hicks has grown in reputation and
usefulness as the peoples astronomer, and
forecaster Of storns and the character ofcomv
ing seasons. Never were his weather forecasts
so sought after as now, his timely warning pt
a serious dGnuth this year having saved the
people from loss and suffering. Millions ol
bushels OF wheat were harvested through his
advice TO plant Gro 5 that would mature early,
The American people will certainly stand by
Prof. Hicks, when it costs them SO little and
the benefits are SO great. His iine Almanac oi
400 pages Is only 2sr, and his snlendid family
journal IS only one dollar year including The
Almanac. Send to WoRD AND Works Pab-
