We must not falter I'm our claims for
the Angoras as brushwood destroyers,
said George II. Thompson I'm his adj
dress at the Kansas City goat show.
Too much has not been claimed for
them in this respect, but there are
many people yet In the United States
who look upon these claims as great
exaggerations. So long as we have
as we do have at tliis time-millions OF
acres OF land covered with brush
which, when cleared, VIII become by
the natural processes the best of pms
lures, just 80 long will there be d de-
mand for the goat TO eat II. This IL no
because the goat will do II better than
q man can and at the same time save
TO the owner from $40 TO $50 per acre.
Credit the animal with this work; cred.

with $3.50 per year for fertilizer pro
duced. with his proportion OF the an
nual increase of the flock. and charge
him with his FIRST cost and small
amount OF feed I'm winter, then we have
an idea OF his worth upon brush land.
Fences and sheds should be for perma-
nent use and so not be charged against
the goat.
The prejudice which was n few years
ago so strong against goat meat is dis
appearing. but 1t is still prevalent to
some extent. This association should
never cease to teach the palatability
and wholesomeness OF Angora venison

toner of Feofar had passed over his
eyes. One remembers that at the mo-
ment of that terrible punishment Mar
ia Strogoff was there, stretching out
her hands toward her son.
Michael Strogoff looked at her, as a
son can look at his mother when it is
for the last time. Streams of tears
welled up from his heart to his eyes,
which his high spirit tried in vain to
restrain and, filling the sockets Of his
eyes, had thus saved his sight. The
action of the heat had been destroyed
just in the same manner as when a
smelter, after having plunged his hand
into water, thrusts it with impunity
into molten iron.
Michael Strogoff had at once under
stood the danger he would have run
in making known his secret to any one.
He realized the advantages which he
might gain from this situation for the
accomplishment of his projects. 1t is
because they would believe him to be
blind that they would leave him his
liberty.
1t was necessary, then, that he
should be blind, that he should be
so for all, even for Madam short,
that he should be 80 everywhere and
cause any doubt Of the sincerity Of his
role. His resolution was taken. Even
his very life must be risked in order
to give to all the proof of his blindness,
and one knows how he risked it.
His mother alone knew the truth,
and it was on the square of Tomsk that
he had whispered it in her ear when,
bending over her in the shade, he had
covered her with his kisses.
We can now understand how when
Ivan Ogareff had placed the emperor's
letter before his eyes, which he be-
lieved to be blind, Michael Strogof had
been able to read, had read that letter
which disclosed the hateful designs of
the traitor; hence that energy which
he displayed during the second part of
the journey; hence that unchanging
| will to reach Irkutsk and on arriving
there to fulfill with his own voice his
mission. he knew that the town wal
to be given up By the traitor. he knew
that the life Of the grand duke was
threatened. The safety Of the brother
OF the car and OF Siberia was still In
| his hands.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.

CURED BY ONE BOTTLE OF CHAMBERLAIN s
Cough REMEDY.
WHEN I had an attack OF the grip last
winter (the second one) actually cured my
self with one bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy" says Frank W. Perry, Editor of the
Enterprise, Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the
honest truth. 1 at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking teaspoonful of
this remedy, and when the coughing spell
would come on at mig hit would take a dose
and it seemed that in tn e briefest interval tn
cough would pass off and would 60 t., sleep
perfectly free from cough and it's accompany
ing pains. To say that the remedy acted as a
most agreeable surprise is putting it very
mildly. had no idea that it would or could
knock out the grip, simply because I had
never tried it for such a purpose, but it did
and it seemed with the second attack OF
coughing the remedy caused it to be not only
of less duration, but the aims were far less
severe, and had not used the contents of one
bottle before Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu.' -

the statue took life. The blind man
walked straight to Ivan Ogareff, and.

At that moment the door of the room,

This is how the two inseparables set

Some days after the ceremony Mi
chael and Nadia Strogoff, accompanied
by Wassili Feodor, started on their
journey to Europe. That road of sor-
rows was only one Of happiness on
their return. They Travelled very rapid
ly with one Of those trains which glide
like an express over the frozen steppes
of Siberia.
Meanwhile, arrived at the banks Of
the Dinka. just opposite Briskoe, they
stopped there one day. Michael Stro-
goff sought out the place where he had
inferred poor Nicholas. A cross was
planted there, and Nadia prayed for
the last time on the tomb of the hum
bic and heroic soul which neither the
one nor the other would ever forget.
At Omsk old Maria was awaiting
them in the little house of the Stro-
goffs. She pressed in her arms that
noble girl whom in her heart she had
already a hundred times called her
daughter The brave Siberian on that
day had the right to own her son and
to say that she was proud Of him.
After some days passed at Omsk, Mi
chaei and Nadia Strogoff returned to
Europe. and, Wassili Feodor being well
| fixed in st. Petersburg, neither his son
nor his daughter had any occasion ever
to leave him, only when they went to
see their old mother.
The young courier had been received
by the car, who attached him specially
to his person and decorated him with
the cross of ST. George.
