How Mortified Went License.

The selectmen of Mortified have grant
ed liquor license to Frank b. Wood &
Co. OF the Loveland House. The COM
pany consists of j. E. Coleman, who has
run the barber shop there for two years.
The only other place for which formal
petition for license was made was
simpsons Inn. 1t appeared that Stimp-
sons Inn was within 400 feet of the prem
lses or school house. 1t is not within
400 feet of the building itself, but the
selectmen believed that the law would
affect the granting of license to a place
within 400 feet of the premises of a school.
the granting of a liquor license in
Northheld, the home of the Moodys and
noted over the country as a centre of
influences which have always been OPP
posed to the idea of licensing the sale of
liquor, has been commented upon very
widely. Mortified no license people say
that there will be big no vote next year
AT the March meeting things went along
very quietly until about 20 minutes be-
fore the polls closed, when a party of
about 80 men appeared, supposedly ad-
Vocates of license, and cast their votes, at
time of day when ii was too late to
rally the partisans of no license.-[Green-

The Decline in Meat Production.

The Manufacturers Record of Balti-
more, discussing the present situation
with regard to the action of the beef
trust and the prices of meat, produces a
chapter of interesting statistics with re-
gard to the meat production of the past
20 years. These figures show that while
there was a gain in the number of cat
tie, sheep and hogs between 1880 and
1892 of 40 per cent, there was a decline
between 1892 and 1900 of nearly 20 per
cent, though during the same eight
year period the population of the country
had increased over 11,000 600. The Record
says: at is a rather startling situation
to find that, Notwithstanding the great in
crease in the meat-consuming capacity of
the country by virtue of the greater pros
perity in 1900, as compared with 1892 the
more general employment of the people
and the gain in actual population of II, -
100000, or, say, about 16 per cent, there
was a gradual decline of 27,000 900 head
or meat-producing animals in that period,
or decrease of nearly 20 per cent I'm
der such conditions an advance in price
was inevitable. Following this situation
there came a decrease last year in the
corn crop in round figures of about l.
0OO,OOO,OOO bushels, or, roughly speaking,
90 per cent, and the same conditions
which shortened the corn crop reduced
the grass of the West and Southwest"
The belief of the Record, based on
these facts, is that farmers and stock
raisers are likely to have things pretty
much their own way in live stock prices
for several years to come, while the con-
sumilg public must meet the situation
as best 1t may. The lesson 1t draws is
that the farmers of the East ought at
once to turn their attention to stock
raising.

A STRANGE ACCIDENT
Fall From a Horse Results In
PARALYSIS.

While Mr.. L. J. Davis, of Manistee,
Mich, was riding his horse near the
railroad, the animal was frightened at a
passing train and became unmanageable
The horse plunged and, although Mr..
Davis is good rider, the movement was
SO quick and unexpected that he was
thrown from his saddle and struck the
pavement with his head and shoulders
He was picked up unconscious and it
was at first thought his neck had been
broken; but an examination revealed
that this was not the case. When he
came to his senses he was found partially
paralyzed.
In telling the story, Mr.. Davis said to
the reporter of the Manistee Times: "It
was three days and nights after the ac-
cident before 1 came to know anyone,
and then 1 found my left side was par
alyzed. I could not move even finger
or toe on my left side and my left eye
was affected. A doctor treated me for
three months after 1 was hurt but got
no better. After this had gone ON for a
couple Of years saw an account in a
paper of how a man was cured of creep
ing paralysis by DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, and thought per.
haps they would help me. And they
did. began to get better Immediately
and kept taking them till I was cured.
am doing my work now without diff
Guilty and recommend DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People to every one whom
hear complain"
Mr.. Davis is a marine engineer on the
tug Stevens and, although the accident
took place eleven years ago, he has not
had a touch Of the complaint since his
marvellous cure by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People.
1t is a reasonable claim that IL DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People will
cure severe cases of this nature they will
readily accomplish as good results in
lesser Affections of the nerves. That
this is so is substantiated by statements
from thousands Of people who have been
cured by them. They are a positive
specific for all diseases arising from
deranged nervous system OF poor blood.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are sold by all dealers or will be sent
postpaid on receipt of price, fifty cents a
box; six boxes for two dollars and fiftv
cents, by addressing DR.. Williams Medi-
cine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.
