wINsTED's ODD INDUSTRY.

Winsted has had an industry for the which is known to but few people, but which promises to become quite exten- sive and Is certainly very interesting. Reference is made to the New England ginseng nursery, of which the Dautrich brothers, Peter and William Dautrich of 21 Bank street, Winsted, are propri- etors.
 Ginseng is plant of the genus ara lia, the root of which when dry has a yellowish-whi color and is highly val ued as medicine by the Chinese
 The Chinese plant is very rare and that grown in America has largely talk en it's place and the root is now ex- ported from America to China, a ready market for it being found in New York
 The ginseng plant resembles the sas- safras plant somewhat, has a dark green foliage with stalk produsing seed bearing berries which are green al this time of the year, but later turn red. The root has a taste somewhat re- sembling that of licorice, combined with a slight aromatic bitterness.
 GROWN UNDER SHADE
 It is the propagation and cultivation of this valuable plant which is occupy ing the attention of these Winsted men A visit to their nursery on Bank street reveals that they hove over quarter of on acre Of ginsng growing under shade port of the field being covered with burlon similar in appeoronce to 8 tobcaco field under cloth, and another portion with laths.
 Beginning in 1898, they have occupied more ground each year, taking space that was formerly devoted to gardening until now nearly their whole lot is oc- cupied and they are already thinking about moving in order to have more room.
 Three savage dogs are kept to pro- tect the nursery from invaders and when it is understood that ginseng seed Is worth ninety dollars pound and the root six dollars pound, it will be seen that some such protection is necessary I--WinSted Citizen.

To Feed Yourself SkiiIfuIix.

It is easy to use good food and get well and keep that way, but a person must go about it.
 A lady says, q had a dreadful time of it before I learned how to feed mv- self properly. I suffered with stomach trouble for about ten years and finally got so bad that terrible pains would set in, followed by nausea ting sickness in the stomach and bowels.
 Sometimes I would bloat up and would have to lie flat on my back My stomach finally got so bad that it would throw up everything I ate, and, of course, I lost weight and strength very rapidly. l became pale Blood was out of order and I looked like a skeleton finally.
 One day neuralgia set in in the stom- ach and liver and I went right down to deaths door. I got so bad that even warm water was thrown off the stomach which would hold absolutely nothing until l began taking Grape-Nuts in small quantities.
 My father had been accustomed to Grape-Nuts and knew of the value of the food and began giving it to me. I immediately began to improve. and the stomach retained the food and digested it. I gradually grew we'll again and now can eat hearty dinner of almost anything. have gained thirty pounds in weight. My brain is clear. skin beautifully white, and my eyes as bright as crystal where used to be sallow and with lack luster eyes. owe every- thing to Grape-Nuts. Please do not publish my 1ame.'

UNCLE BoB's HAILsTONE STORY

UNCLE BOB'S HAlLSIONE SlOR [.
 An old countryman I used to know when I was living in south Georgia y remarked a college professor apropos of sudden changes in the weather, was in at least one respect very re- markable character. To a casual lis- tener he appeared to be a fluent and unconscionable liar yet when you ments closely it was impossible to catch him in the slightest deviation from the truth"
 "One day in early spring we had an unusually severe fall of hail, and next morning while driving down the road with a friend we happened to encoun- ter the old fellow at his gate. Well. Uncle Bob,' I said, that was pretty bad hailstorm we had yesterday I should say it was he replied You just oughter seed some of the stones that come down in my back yard. | How big were they?' I asked. Bout as big as small watermelons,' said he. Well, we've caught him in whopper at last chuckled my friend as we drove on. No, we haven't I groaned As usual the old radical has secured all the advtnage of a fine, large lie and at the same time has adhered rig idly to the truth. Lok at that vine
 "An early watermelon vine was fes- tooning the bottom rail of a fence by the roadside, and here and there it was studded with minute green spheres about the size of gooseberries My friend made no comment I never tried to catch Uncle Bob again. New Or leans Times-Democrat.

 science and Theology Compared
 C9mParIson Also Drawn Between
 Work of TheoIogians and That of
 Christ.
 Rev. Dr. G. B. Smith, professor of Biblical history in the University of Chicago. spoke, at both the morning and evening services in the Calvary Bap- list church Sunday. Dr. Smith was greeted by large congregations and his sermons were scholarly, impressive and inspiring. In the morning the text was taken from the fifth chapter of Mat thew. the eighth verse: Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God" In part, pr. Smith spoke as fol- !a"2:
 Tn my library are two books which treat directly two phases of the sub ject which we are to consider. One of those books is Gray's Botany; the other is Wordsworth'S poems. In the first one will find scientific descrip- tion of the daffodil, with its history and the specie and genus of the flower All these are treated in an interesting sci entific manner. Wordsworth speaks of the little flower in choicest sentiment. The question at once arises, which best explains, the scientist or the poet? We are living in day of science. but does the science of botany teach us how to love the little flower or enjoy its beau ty? The science of physics teaches about the seven prismatic colors of the rainbow and tells us os its marvellous reflection of light, but this same science does not teach us how to appreciate the great beauty and the wonderful prom ise of God for which the rainbow stands. Zoology teaches of the science of life but does it teach us how to en- joy a beautiful day like this? Psychol- ogy teaches us of the wonders of the mind, but will it teach you how to think the same thought as another from the presentation of familiar sounds? The ology teaches us of religion but religion can only be known and appreciated by light and not by science. It must be experimental; not external. One may use It's scientific formulas and yet have no inward appreciation of the subject. One man may be able to discuss the topic in all it's phases and still not be religious, while another may be so emo tional that he cannot speak in @ prayer meeting, yet the latter has the true re- ligion.
 "The scientific ideal of religion is aristocratic. The old way was that people should be able to recite the cate chism to be religious. The Pharisees claimed that to be religious a man must be an aristocrat. But the great ques- ton is how to find God. Shall We find Him in the old or in the new version; in the Baptist or Episcopal church Christ said that God is with us always. The pure in heart shall see God be- cause God enters through a clean heart. Jesus Christ never tried to prove that God exists yet this seems to be the great work of theologians. Christ never undertook it. as he devoted his time to the teaching of man the great truth that a clean heart shall see God. ' Last evening Dr. Smith spoke very interestingly on the subject, Choosing an Ideal" Christ was pointed out as the great ideal and pattern for mankind { 70 follow.
