When to Sell,

The principle we have always fol-
lowed is, when hogs are ready to go,
let them 30. The higher the price the
more profit can he made in feeding
heavy hogs, but we would not think of
growing hogs over $50 pounds unless
we had no youngsters coming on. We
believe that when hogs are 4 cents
and under the proper weight at when
to sell them is 175 pounds; wi'n they
are ) cents, 200 pounds; when they are
6 cents. 225 pounds; when they are I
cents, $50 pounds. -Wallace's Farmer.

Consumption

Salt pork is famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. /" Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.

ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, IS half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

GRADUAL APPROACH OF DEATH
Brief Story of the Last Day ON Earth Of
the Roman Pontif.

Brief Story of the Last Day ON Earth Of
the Roman Pontif:
Pope Leo's last day on earth was
full of physical anguish, and this was
heightened by fieeting moments Of
consciousness which permitted him
fully to recognize the slow approach
of his c1ld. When the doctors assem-
bled in the sick room for the morning
conference the aged gnized
them and mournfully said their task
would soon be over Toward noon the
pontiff had distinct sinking spell,
during which his heart almost ceased
to beat.
The cardinals and Pope Leo's rela-
tives were hastily summoned and word
spread through the Vatican that death
had actually occurred. But despite the
imminence of danger the pope again
rallied. Even when the cardinals
Dtood about the bedside expecting the
advent of death the sufferer opened
his eyes and his lips moved with
words Of benediction The cardinals,
.prelates and the dying mans relatives
kneeled beside the bed and kissed his
hand. For two hours the pope lin
gered in a state of semi CONSCIOUSNESS
About o'clock it became apparent
that his life was fast ebbing away.
The cardinals and his relatives were
again summoned from the adjoining
chamber. Prayers for the dying were
said and dissolution in articulo mortis
was administered. Still the spark Of
life continued to flicker, gradually
growing DINNER and DINNER.
At 2:45 p. m. the doctors detected
the approach Of the final agony Some
slight signs of consciousness remained
and the dying pontiff muttered some
inaudible words. Gradually his power
Of speech and sight were blunted and
he could neither see nor speak Thus
the chill of death gradually overspread
him until at 4 o'clock the struggle
ended and he passed into the endless
sleep Of eternity.

THE reports of the labor commits
sioners hardly bear out the theory that
the scarcity of domestics is due to the
increase in the number Of women en-
ployed in the factories and to the ac-
tivity of business. The statistics
seem to show that the women have not
kept up their normal percentage of the
increase in the number Of people en-
ployed in the shops and factories, and
the shortage in the Supply of domes-
tics would seem to be due to the fact
that many years Of steady work at
good wages have relieved the heads of
many families of the necessity of send
ing their daughters out to earn their
own living.

Sale of Ice Property in the County Res
ponsible for Large Mortgage.
In the Office of the register of deeds
this morning mortgage was filed
which is one of the largest ever2placed
on record in the county. The mort
gage represents $4,000, andais given
by Ralph Dillenbeck one off the Off
Gals of the Knickerbocker Ice Com
pany to the Illinois Trust and Savings
Bank. The mortgage covers vast
amount of property in this and the
surrounding countless .of..Il1inois and
Wisconsin and represents most of the
property formerly held by the Con-
sumers Ice Company on"the different
lakes in this section of the 1country.
The property in Kenosha county is
mostly in the town of Randall and
was formerly owned by the Consumers
company. The fling of this mortgage
gives absolute proof of the deal for the
sale of the Consumers company to the
Knicker booker company.
