Cure for HeaGache.

ver-failing remedy for nerv'
Gus Aeadache is described by scien-
tific authority thus 1t consists simply
of the act of walking backward. but
the method of walking Is an important
factor in the cure. The pace should
be very slow, letting the ball OF the
foot touch the floor first, then the
heel. A hall or narrow room serves
the purpose best. TIE theasT under,
lying the cure is that the redex action
of the body brings ABOUT reflex ac'

The -. - -
Curse o. Darlington
By r. TEMPLE MOORE.


"Is 1t true?" the girl at her feet
questioned --:.!1..yy-1.is Il true tnat
that-laugh-is an omen OF evil to
Blackcastle-to the house of Caring
ton? We were Just in the shadow of
the tower when we heard tive all
heard II! And IL soft II be true, this
legend-it Is she who lies beyond, who
shall bring misery. perhaps death, to
Blackcastle-she--"
My lady was shaking from head to
feet. The hands which Cynthia
clasped were icy cold.
"No, 1t is not true-of course 1t is
not true, that old superstituion! You
imagined it--you were excited! How
foolish you are, Cynthia! how"
She sat down CHASTITY white, and
trembling to the very lips.
And once again, through the pretty,
silent room. out rang that strange, sad,
passionate voice:
ooh. Give, my love. my darling!
Pray God that | may hate you! Give,
Give. Cliye!"
The pioneer press. (Miller, Hand County, S.D.) 1893-190?, 1903-11-26

Tonight Cyril Darlington was to a..
rive. Tonight the new heir, the mas
ter Of Blackcastle. would come to sit
on his throne and WELD his scepter!
All, no wonder that the old cheek
paled, and the old mouth Quivered de-
spite her iron self-repression. For,
| after all, him whom she had driven
forth was her boy-her boy!
She paused a moment at door from
which the ruddy freight streamed In
hospitable pillows.
In the room beyond a small group
were gathered. Baby Earle and Will
Warren were engaged in vigorous
and spirited dispute; Miss Cassard and
Mr. Lynn fanguisned over the meekest
dilation of Irritation; Sir Jasper Jet

sighted chaperone, fathoms deep In the

She smiled and sighed together, ard
passed on. She met servant and
spoke to him.

down to me in Sir Gives room"
At the extreme end of the corridor
she paused before a certain entrance
and inserted key in the lock. She
went into the room and closed the door
behind her.
The place had been den of Gives,
and it bore the evidence Of mans
occupancy in its guns, and rods, and
reels, and whips, and swords.
The table was still as he had left It
that summer evening, such a short
time ago-all Uttered with books and
pipes, and military and sporting maya
zines.
There was no light in the ROOM save
that which emanated from the many
sconced candelabra Miss Lennox had
taken up in passing through the hall.
But the radiance, however feeble,
fell upon picture which hung above
the low marble mantel-a portrait
painted Of Give when he was quite a
boy.
She walked slowly forward, and
leaning both elbows on the broad slab,
looked at it.

"It was not worth while!" Cynthia
Lennox cried, passionately. There is
nothing worth while which brings us

the world without bringing it on our

My lady rose trembling and stately.

Harvesting Sweet Potatoes.

A small crop of sweet potatoes may
be thrown out by common turning
plow provided with q revolving coul
ter or other device for cutting the
vines, but such pillow leaves many OF
the tubers covered, and the labor OF
gathering them is much greater than
when special sweet potato plpw Ia
used, says ID. N. Nesbit. In large op
erations one of the most efficient in-
plements for harvesting Is the scoop
digger" which passes under the tub
ers and sewers all roots, but leaves
the plant, with vines and roots cut,
in the same position it occupied be-
fore. The tubers remain attached to
the stem and are easily and rapidly
lifted out of the ground. They are
then left to dry several hours before
gathering. In hot weather they should
not be long exposed to the sun. This
method leaves the vines uncovered.
and it is easy to gather them for
stock feeding The tubers are sorted
in two sizes and laid carefully mot
throWn) into baskets which hold one
fifth of barrel. They are hauled In
these baskets to the potato house
or to the buyer at the railroad station
or steamboat landing. The small
roots are left on the field or gathered
for feeding stock. 1t is of prime I'M
portance to avoid cutting the tubers
in digging or bruising them after
wards by rough handling.
The yield of sweet potatoes varies
widely according to variety, quality
Of land, season, fertilizers, culture,
etc. Under favorable conditions, In
check planting a barrel of primes
from 100 hills is a good yield, or
barrel from 125 plants 1S inches apart
iE row. In q good crop there may
be = barrel Of seconds to every 5 bar
rels of primes, more or less, according
to the method of sorting. Extremes
Of yield go far above and drop as far
below the figures here gi-en.
1t will be understood that only
sweet potatoes of good quality for
table use are referred to In this est.
mate. Some of the coarser varieties
used for stock feeding, or even the
finer varieties grown in rich land,
where they are apt to be deficient In
quality, may be expected to yield 400
or 500 bushels per acre.
