Everybody has their hour of trouble.

Eczema and horrid itching piles.
Relief and cure are here at last.

slightest relief, let alone any permanent

ACRE INCOME FROM GOOD
STEERS.
TT. S. Trigg.]
A breeder of the Polled Angus cattle
in central Iowa told us the other day
that he can produce on his farm one
year with another q twelve hundred
pound Angus steer for each four acres
of his farm. This finished steer is
worth one year with another about $50,
which gives him an income. of $50 per
acre for his land. 1t should be said that
the use of the farm for this purpose has
brought the soil up to most produc-
tive condition.
FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS A
YEAR.
IJ. S. Trigg in Rockford Register.1
We are asked by a man aged 80. who
has a wife and four children, whether
we can suggest any way whereby he
can get a start when his income from
common days labor never exceeds S40o
per year. Not possessing the wisdom
OF King Solomon, we feel like letting
this job out; still, perhaps, we can offer
& suggestion, even II we can not give
advice. The $500 year, as most labor
ing men live. will do very little besides
food, rniment and shelter for
the family. Even with good health and
no bad luck the margin of surplus is
very small. Therefore, in order to get
the small start which may lead to bet
ter conditions, there is involved linz
tied period of self denial for both the
man and his wife such as most people
would shrink from. A man, his Wife
and four children can and do exist
somehow in England and on the CONT
nent on an income Of $3.50 a year, and
this way of living. which involves bin
,f fare wherein oatmeal and potatoes
igure very conspicuousfy. To accom-
olish anything in the way of making
he start desired there must be at least
800 saved from the living expense ac-
count to begin with. Then, as soon as
possible. good cow should be secured
md some poultry kept and a small
patch of land procured for good gar
len. These three things will at once
make the saving of 500 easy. When
he first 500 is saved. ways and means
% add to 1t will readily suggest them
selves, and little by little more desir-
,ble condition may be brought about.
n this connection we might add that
my attempt to work out of the hole is
useless unless man has a wife who
$ willing to fully cooperate with him.
We wish that we could offer better
solution of this economic problem. but
[ is the only way.

sopeCIaI 20 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Fort Dodge, Feb. 15.-It is reported
in railway circles in this city. that the
Central authorities are contemplating
the construction of an independent wa
tering plant to supply their engines and
shops. AT the present time they are
patrons of the city and since the meters
have been put in the expense of water
owing to the large volumns used is no
small item. They are prompted to take
the step from another reason, that of
pressure which is sufficiently great to
enable them to wash boilers with the
dispatch desired.

Rotten Egg After Swallowing Seven
Dozen Good Ones.

Dubuque, Feb. 15.-Phil Melloy. the
gastronomic wonder of this city, last
night devoured seven dozen eggs in
side of ten minutes on a wager. The
bet was that he was to swallow ten
dozen eggs in thirty minutes, but some
one purposely handed him rotten egg
which caused him to gag and throw
UP. After he recovered he offered to
swallow the other three .dobzen and
eat roast goose on top, but no one
would take him up. Finally he offered
to down bucket of oysters at one
sitting. Melloy has been known for
some time as the man with the leather
stomach. and it WAS dangerous to bet
against him.

The Commissions Reasons for Chang
 ing Its Opinion.

Washington Feb. S.-Admiral Walker concluded his testimony before the senate committee on inter-oceanic canals today. and Colonel Haupt. an other member of the Isthmian canal commission. will be heard :donday next.
 The examination today was with ref erence to the reasons why the canal commission changed it's recommenda- tions from Nicaragua to the Panama route. The reasons given by the wit ness for the change. summed up, are the Panama route is much shorter and has fewer curves. and those curves which do exist are not so sharp as the curves in the Nicaragua route He also said he believed that with proper quarantine regula tions the health con ditions in-the region along the Panama line could be much improved. The com mission did not consider the present condition from q health point of view as bad.
 The questions bringing out these points were asked largely by Senator Hanna, who also made inquiries con corning the water supply for the Pan anna canal and the difficulties in the way of constructing q dam at Bohio. With reference to the dam. Admiral Walker said no doubt the engineering difficulties could be overcome, and he also expressed an opinion that the water supply would be ample.

 The declaratory statement with ref erence to "elect infants" also adopted. asserting that the Presbyte- rian church does not teach that those dying in infancy are lost, but that all dying in infancy are included in the election of grace. The members of the committee denied that the American Presbyterian church ever taught the doctrine of infant damnation-
