disordered stomach may cause
no end of trouble. Whe the stomach
fails to perform it's functions the
bowels become deranged, the liver
and kidneys congested, causing nu-
merous diseases, the most fatal of
which are painless and therefore the
more to be dreaded. The important
thing is to restore the stomach and
liver to healthy condition, and for
this purpose no better preparation
can be used than Chamberlain's Stom-

ROOSEVELT'S CAMPAIGN,

dent Roosevelt at 7.05 o'clock
this morning departed on his
Western trip under the most ia
yor1blo auspices. AS the special
train pulled out of the Pennsyl-
vania station the President stood
on The platform of his private
Car, tipping his hat and smiling
in response 10 the enthusiastic
cheers of hundreds of admirers
and friends.
AS early as o'clock crowd
began 10 gather at the White
House to witness the Presidents
departure. AS he entered his
carriage TO drive 10 the station
the men made thehistoricgrounds
echo with cheers, while women
waved their handkerchiefs and
many of them their hats.
The station platforms were
crowded with people anxious to
extend the Chief Magistrate their
good wishes for safe and sue
@essful journey. Notable pre-
cautions were taken to insure the
safety of the. President. Uni
formed officers, detectives, plain
clothes men and secret service
operatives surrounded the Presi-
dent and covered every point.
AS President Roosevelt alight-
ed from his carriage he was ioin.
ed by Secretary Hitchcock, and
they walked down the station
platform arm in arm, the Presi-
dent stopping now and then to
greet personal friends. He was
attired in black cutaway coat
dark striped trousers and wore a
black felt hat. He was in the
best of spirits and chatted en-
Enthusiastically with friends about
the trip on which he was about
to start.
The most notable incident con
nected with the presidents de-
parture arose out of the presence
at the station of Baron Spec Won
Sternburg, the German minister.
He was the only member of the
diplomatic corps who went to the
depot to see the president off and
the president greeted him most
cordially, telling him that he
greatly appreciated the courtesy
During their chat the president
asked the Baron whether he
would be here in June, when he
returned, and upon receiving an
affirmative reply the president
said:
"That is good; we will have
some long rides together"
The Baron told the president
that his horses were in India and
would not be here for some time.
Instantly the president turned
and gave orders that during his
absence his riding horse and that
of Mrs. Roosevelt should be plac
ed at the disposal of Baron and
Baroness Won Sternburg. 81
should be very much pleased"
said he to the Baron, "If you and

The best soil for plants in pots is
to be found in well-rotted turf, or at
least sufficiently rotted to destroy the
life In the roots of the grass, then
the coarser the better, as the growing
plants will consume it as wanted. The
proyident gardener or amateur will
always have a pile of sods in some
Out-of-the-way place, where 1t will de-
cay and be ever-ready for potting pur-
poses. Some of the best rose grow
ers in our country use nothing else
for their young roses, and there can
be nothing better; others, in piling up
the sods, alternate the layers with
stable manure. This makes a good
compost, but is a congenial home for
worms and grubs which are destruc-
tive to the plants. For the best re-
suits use sod only, and make an oc-
easional application of some reliable
concentrated plant food, but use in
moderation.

10 is q too common practice for land
devoted to the pasture to be given 10
the stock IN body, over which they
have continuous and unrestricted
range Tint this is not good policy Is
apparent The whole pasture urface
Is kept constantly fouled and tread
down No portion Of it ls allowed 10

Actual test has proven that 'wo GIVE
acre pastures, fed alternately are
worth much more than one ten-aere
field fed continuously The grass
roots have a much better chance IN
the former. especially in the dry time.
They are not then constantly
trampled, and the protecting growth
above fed down One.haif the pas
ture Is allowed an uninterrupted
growth Of several days while the
other is being fed. This in turn will
offer fresh feed while the first is get
ting a rest, and SO, alternately
through the growing season.
The expense OF thus separating the
pasture into parts is slight indeed
compared with the benefits realized.
It is supposed that the pasture is al
ready surrounded with fence. All that
Is required to make the division is to
run a fence across the pasture This
fence may usually be Of a rather light
temporary character, as there is moth
ing on either side to tempt stock to
make a breach, and no great damage
to be done If they do Movable panels
may be staked in place OF three wires
strung to form the division The cost
of this improvement in a ten-acre pas
ture would not be over eight dollars
or ten dollars, while the gain ia a sim

VALUE OF THE elEsTA.

What Happens When One Takes a
Nap In the Afternoon.
The need for the light slumber robe
or coverlet thrown over person when
lying down during the day even in a
warm room is explained by the re-
duced circulation of the blood when
the body is in a recunbent posture
When one lies down the heart
especially is eased temporarily of its
regular work. The body depends for
warmth on the rigor of the cireula-
ton, and as the blood flows SO much
more slowly through the veins when
one is lying down the missing warmth
must be made up by extra covering.
This temporary respite OF the
hearts action also accounts for the
wholesomeness of the siests. or for
the benefit derived from the half
hours lying down without sleep,
which so many nervous or high strung
people find recuperative.

Fish KILLED by LIahtnIna.


The British Fishing Gazette tells
the following story "One day in July
at a flsh-breeding establishment, near
Helmsbach, Germany, one Of the build
lngs contained several tanks OF live
trout, which were about to be shipped
to Berlin. During a heavy thunder
storm a heavy flash of lightning ap-
peared to strike the building and on
examination it was found that all the
fish In a tank near a window were
dead. The wire netting covering the
tank was not damaged, and there were
no observable signs on the bodies Of
the FISH"
Several other similar instances Of
fish killed by a lightning stroke in
isolated tanks and ponds have been
recorded.

KILLING fhe kannarnn.

Some curious figures come from the
state Of Queensland, dealing with the
gradual extinction of the harmful, un-
necessary kangaroo. In the early days
of settlement in the colony the squat
ters found that the resident maTsu-
pals had an irritating way of eating
up the grass and indigenous herbage
required for stock. So the government
came to their assistance, and passed
a measure called the marsupial de-
struction act, under which rewards
wero offered for these animals scalps.
This act has been renewed from time
to time, and is in force at the present
day. For the year ended June. 1901,
scalps we're brought in to the number
of 1,295,748. These scalps included
those Of kangaroos, wallables and
other marsupials, and of dingoes-
sons of the primitive yellow Dog
Dingo." who was responsible (accord
ing to Mr.. Kipling) for the develop
ment of the kangaroos hind legs.
The total sum paid for these scalps
was over 100000 In the past five
and a half years no less than 1916,

II we consider the amount Of energy
brought 10 the surface IN the form Of
hot water from all the hot springs. we

which used some liquid like ether,

a temperature considerably below the
temperature Of the wstpr in the hot

The suggestion for utilizing the heat
below the surface OF the earth has
been a favorite one aud has reap
peared at every occurrence Of interest
in underground temperatures
It is comparatively easy to compute
the depth to which It would be neces-
sary to penetrate In order to find tenn
peratures that would be suitable for
the operations with the ordinary steam
engine; but In some localities the
depth would be so considerable as to
appear prohibitory, for the present az

compelled to select such disadvan-

where the remnants Of volcanic ener-
gy are near the surface, it would, I'M
! doubtedly, be possible at the present
| time to put down q hole deep enough

The problem it appears to the writ
er, is not so much concerned with the
| putting down of a hole or holes az

Thus 1t would be necessary to star

degrees in order that we might ulti
mately obtain a working Temperature
Of 300. These conditions would de
