 There comes time to both men and women when sickness and poor health bring anxiety and trouble hard to bear; disappointment seems to follow every effort of physicians in our behalf, and remedies we try have little or no effect. Ill many such cases serious mistakes are made in doctoring, and not knowing what the disease Is or what makes us sick. Kind nature warns us by certain symptoms, which are unmistakable evi, denee of danger, such as too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, scalding irritation, pain or dull ache in the back. they tell us in silence that our kid--

 The idea that comets are connected with radioactive substances was sug- gested by T. c. Chamberlain, as long ago as July, 1901. Ffof. c. V. Boys now con- elders that radium, whose particles are shot out at a twelfth of the velocity of light, may explain some of the phenome- na of comets tails, as these particles would be sent away from the electrically charged surface of the sun in a single. double or multiple stream. The mega lively charged rays that radium is said to give out would be attracted, giving the tails that on few occasions have pointed toward the sun.

A NEW FOOD 90PPLY
Argentine RepubAE Is Coming to
 the Front as a Producer.
Magnificent AgricrsituraI Area Along the River Plntte-Wonderful De- veIopnent sof Thirty Years
 What Of the Futurcs

There is being opened up in the terri tory of the river Platte a magnificent agricultural area. The farmer and the boards of trade of the United States have their eyes upon the Argentine Re- public, for that country is making rapid strides toward becoming one of the fore most food suppliers of the world. Agents of big grain handing companies of this country are being sent yearly to Argen- tina to study the agricultural conditions there, andthey never return without big ger stories than ever of the agricultural possibilities of the country.
 Thirty years ago the people of Argen- tina had to buy flour from the United States, and in the whole country there were only 500 miles of railway. But to- day the 500 miles of railroad have grown to over 10000 and more are in rapid con- struction, and when it is remembered that the republic has an area of l 200 GOO square miles, the extent to which this development may go may be but fainty imagined. And all this railroad develop

and the lucerne crop from November to April The time of planting the su- gar cane, which is grown in Santiago, Tucuman, Salta Jujuy and the territorial governments of Fl Chaco, Formosa and Misiones, is from July to October, and of the harvesting from June to October of the following year. Rice is sown in September and October and is gathered from March to May. The mandioca is sown in June and gathered In April and May.
 The typical Argentine farmer is nomadic in his habits He commonly contracts with the owner to undertake all the expense connected with sowing and harvesting the crop, and instead of rent gives a percentage on the results, while the owner only gives the bare land fenced, though in most instances he will advance working animals and provi- sions and generally guarantee the colo nist's credit until harvest.

Peccary Hunting.

Peccary hunting Is usually both dan- gerous and fatiguing. About ten or 12 logs are set upon the trial of drove, the huntsmen following as best they may on foot. When the dogs come up with the peccaries the little animals turn to bay in closely packed, squealing crowd. Often the veteran boars of the herd rush out upon their canine enemies and it is seldom that hunt passes with out one or more dogs being killed or bad ly injured. Careless and inexperienced huntsmen are also liable to be badly mauled, for the peccaries seems incap- able of fear and rush madly at any nov, Ing object, be it dog or man.

TO BUILD CUTOFF.
Great Northern Will Reduce AnOth.
er Grade in Montana.

Seattle, June 11.-The Great North
ern railroad is having plans prepared
for the construction OF new cutoff
line from Columbia Falls, Mont, on
the main line, to point just north OF
Jennings, Mont, on the branch from
that town to the Canadian boundary.
The distance is about 100 miles and
will throw the main line of the Great
Northern several miles north of its po-
sition at present between the points OF
building. The cost of the work will be
in the neighborhood of 80 900, 900, and
it is expected it will be started this
summer.
The object of the change in the route
Of the line is to escape the heavy grades
between Columbia Falls and Jennings.
These grades have been a source of ex.
pense and delay to the road ever since
it was built, and three years ago Presi-
dent Hill first declared his intention OF
doing away with them.
The principal town on the main line
now between Columbia Falls and Jen.
nings is Kalispell, the county seat of
Flathead county. The change will take
it off the main line and place it on a
branch of the road, which will be used
for light hauls and for whatever local
traffic it may give.
Beside the regular heavy expense OF
the haul over this grade, The recent ar
rangement with the trainmen virtually
doing away with double headers, is an
additional incentive for lessening the
grade.
The cutoff, it is said, will not short
en- the main line. In fact the new track
will be somewhat longer than the pres
ent one, between Columbia Falls and
Jennings, but the grade is practically
nothing and better time can be made
in the handling of freight.

EUROPE AGJTATED.
Peace May Be Disturbed BY Assas.
EjnatiOn.

Berlin, June l1.--Ali the nations Of
Europe appear to be united in their
horror OF the cowardly assassination at
Belgrade early this morning. While
the German government can not he said
to have taken up any attitude as yet re-
earding the provisional government of
Servia, the immediate feeling is one OF
antagonisn and there is disposition
to make its path hard. The foreign
office is waiting fuller information and
is sounding the chancellories of the
other nations. The only thing which
tends to simplify the situation is the
fact that the murdered king was not
connected with any of the other Euro
pean reigning families.
A phase of the situation which is
likely to provoke trouble is the we'll
known rro-Russian attitude of Prince
Peter kara9eorgevitch, who has just
been proclaimed king by the revolu-
tionary party. The usurper's son is at
present being educated in st. Peters
burg at the expense of the Russian
government. Should any serious dis
turbances occur in Servia, it is consid-
cred likely that an army from Austria
Hungary would be sent across the bor-
der to preserve peace.

CREST OF FLOOD PASSES
Situation in East st. Louis Much
ReIieved-LOss Of Life Has
Been Small.

St. Louis, June 12.-That the crisis
of the flood situation has passed, so far
as this city is concerned, was generally
accepted as a fact by the citizens OF
East St. Louis tonight. Boat crews
which yesterday strained their energies
to the point of exhaust on in rescuin2
the prisoners of the flood, today occu-
pied themselves in saving property and
In bringing to higher ground belated
refugees who previously had not be-
lieved themselves in immediate danger.
Since the disastrous break in the Hi
nois Central )evee the flood has made
no dangerous inroads; although por-
tion of the Baltimore 4 Ohio embank-
ment gave way last night, and the food
area was further increased by seepage
today.
With the stress of the situation re-
lleved, it was possible today to make a
survey of the flooded district. A trip
OF several miles showed only picture
OF Kansas City and Topeka over again
"A vista OF deserted second stories Of
houses Or perhaps just their roofs, with
me perspective helgnteneu mere anu
there by brick public buildings and fac
tories looming secure above the waters

people were still living.
One prominent undertaken averred
that there had been no loss OF life di-
rectly in the flood, although there had
been deaths later due indirectly to tho
overflow. There We're no reports oil
drownings today, nor were any bodies
recovered.
The work was that OF caring for the
refugees. This the citizens of East ST.
Louis are doing with tireless energy
The supply OF food seems ample. Dur
ing much of the day the city was under
quasi martial law, although Mayo,
Cook and his chief of police We're the

things, necessitating as it did the issu
ing of permits for visiting threatened
portions of the city, was working 6
hardship on many citizens, and the dis
cipline was relaxed to allow free com
munication between here and the Mis-
souri, side.

SMOOTHS 1T OVER.
Balfour Makes Speech and Cham
berlatn viii Stay.

London, June l2.-By a dextrous and
extraordinary speech Premier Balfour
temporarily smoothed over the differ
ences in the cabinet, relieved Colonial
sSecretary Chamberlain of any neces-
sity for resigning and for the moment
averted crisis. Mr.. Balfour accom-
plished this without committing the
government either teo protection or free
trade, though the effect of his speech
will generally be taken to mean that
the tariff issue is to oe shelved for the
present.
Henry Chaplin's amendment, which
gave rise TO the most interesting debate
in the present parliament, was defeated
by majority of 1876 votes. composed OF
Unionists, liberals and Irish members.
The minority who supported MI. Chap
Inns amendment were alnsOst all fol-
lowers OF the government, while many
of the Conservative party abstained
from voting.
1t was 80 in the evening when
Premier Balfour sprang to his feet to
reply ito the taunts of the opposition
and appeals to his own party. The
premier was loudly cheered. He had
scarcely begun to deal with Mr.. Chap
Inns amendment before he was inter
rupted by hurricane of applause at
the entry of Mr.. Chamberlain, who had
been abeent throughout the evening
The colonial secretary dropped into his
accustomed place The house was now
packed with peers, members OF the
house and spectators as it has not been
since the days of home rue.
In whimsical vein Mr.. Balfour OK
planned that the only reason that the
corn tax was put on was because the
government wanted money, and the
only reason it was taken off was that
the government wanted money no long
er. Reverting to the charges OF vacil-
lation made against him, the premier
took on a tone of unusual vehemence
He declared that, though believer
in free trade (Which statement met
with loud applause) he did not regard
j, as ietich, and he had an absolutely
open mind regarding the necessity for
any alterations in system which was
founded to suit conditions of fifty years
ago. He refused not only to make a
statement of any tinality upon such an
important question, but he also refused
to compel his colleagues to conform to
standard OF opinion upon which he
himself lad an Open mind.
