Diplomatic wiles were never

that against her alone is the com
pact directed. 1t was made nee

OF ALL the maladies to which child
hood is subject, there are few so dis
tressing as whooping cough. Others are
more dangerous and fatal, but this one
has disagreeable features peculiarly its
own, and which are rendered all the
more Objectionable from the long contin
uance of the disease. But now comes a
Belgian doctor who announces the dis
coyery of serum by himself which he
declares to be remedy for the relief and
cure of the malady. The serum is in
jected under the skin, and isquite harm
less. The first effects are apparent
about forty eight hours after the inocu
lation. The serum produces an early
cessation of the coughing fits and great
elimination of the normal period of i'll
ness. II the injection is made immedi
ately on the manifestation of the usual
symptoms, the malady can be cured in
eight or ten days. The usual course is
from six to eight weeks.

says: "Undoubtedly the good people of

every editor in the state, hoping they
will pass on the word from this beautiful

IT is said that the world cannot ex-
pect to see a great general oftener than
about once in a century. This country
seems to have outgrown that rule, for
certainly the great Captains of Indus
try" have all the qualities of generalship
and the roll of their names goes up into
the seventies. Five of them are de-
scribed in the November Cosmopolitan
James r. Keene, the masterful strate-
gist of Wall Street; Robert Hoe, who
has advanced the art of printing as far
as Gutenberg himself did in his day;
Winfield Scott Stratton, the carpenter,
who uncovered the riches of the Colo
RADIO mountains; Tom Johnson, the sin
gular compound of idealism and bust
ness, and Ferdinand William Roebling
who can cross the continent by five diff
ferent routes without ever losing sight
of the wires by which he has bound the
most distant communities together.

Fatteninc Old Cows.

There are those who think it does
not pay to fatten old cows but we do
not agree with them. Given one fresh
or farrow in the spring, good pasture,
and regular grain feed every day
during the summer, and they can be
made to pay for their grain until fall,
and they will continue to gain in flesh
all the season. Then a little suceulent
food, as soft or immature corn, waste
vegetables, pumpkins and such stuff as
seems to cost nothing on the farm, and
they will be in condition to take on
fat very rapidly when the grain feed is
increased. We know this because we
have tried it. Beef that Is made in
that way may not bring the highest
price when sold to the slaugherer, but
when put on the bench to be retailed
out 1t will be as good as much Of the
steer beef that the marketmen handle,
and it will be sold at the same prices

swind1iue the Farmer,

Still another signature swindle is re-
ported from Indiana. Sharpers from
Chicago went through country dis
tricts, representing themselves as
hunters. They would approach farm
er, tell him they wished to hunt on his
land, and cheerfully pay So for per-
NIT to do so. The farmer would sign
a receipt for the money, and this
turned up later as promissory note
for $500. It Is said that the swindlers
secured $1,000 in one county by this
process. It Is noticeable that most of
the swindling schemes now worked to
the detriment of the farmers, begin
with the payment Of small sum,
which disarms the suspicious Of the
victim.-Rural New Yorker.

A rebate would not injure or discour-
400 anv domestic industry or prevent
its further development, as it is reason
ably believed a reduction in the tarin
would do. It would place in the hands
of the Cuban government an annual IN
come of several millions Of dollars, the
expenditure Of which in public I'M
proyements and the support Of schools
would be of great benefit to the Cuban
people as whole, whereas a tar1H
concession Of 20 or 25 per cent would
be an advantage mainly to the sugar
and tobacco growers and of little II
any benefit to the masses Of the people.
It is argued against rebate that we
have no responsibility for the finances
of the Cuban Republic, whose govern
ment can raise whatever revenue 1t
needs by taxation, therefore there is no
necessity for our voting money to that
government. Our obligations, 1t Is
urged, are to the people of Cuba who
are mainly dependent upon the markets
of the United States for their sugar and
tobacco. Grant this and still it Is to
be said that more Of the people of Cuba
would undoubtedly be benefited by
turning over several millions of dollars

Txnica1 Dairy Cow.

An Agricultural Department bulletin
shows an illustration of a dairy cow,
whose general features, it Is claimed,
are almost perfect. She has medium
sized head and neck and a we'll defined
shoulder and neck vein. The body or
barrel Is medium to long, but with a
great depth through the digestive re-
gion and with long, well developed
hind quarter and nicely shaped I'D
der. She is short legged, close to the
ground, angular and free from feshi-
ness. Her body shows symmetry,
quality, correlation of parts and there
fore stamina and great digestive ca
pacity, and she exhibits every indica-
ton Of the power to give large guam
tity Of milk. It Is rare that any person
purchasing cow having such apparent
constitution and conformation, and yet
being a rangy, open jointed animal,
will be disappointed in her as a money
maker. There are exceptions to all
rules, however, and no type can be de-

and / saw Improvement at once. I
drove her to buggy right along, and in
three months she was fat and in splen-

mischief. Young stock do better on a
