STORY OF CAL-CuRA.
Discovered by Or. David Kennedy-OnIy
Kidney Remedy Sold Under Guarantee.

DR.. David Kennedy was born in New York
City, but at an early age his family moved
to Roxbury, NY. He was graduated in 1860
from the New York College of Physicians
and Surgeons. He at once volunteered az
surgeon and was assigned to the United
States Army General Hospital in West Phil
adelphia, and soon became President of the
Examining Board and Consulting Surgeon.
After the war, DR.. Kennedy settled in Ron
dout, City of Kingston, N. Y, where for a
number of years he enjoyed large prac-
tice as an operative surgeon. He was one
of the Presidential Electors of New York
State, Mayor of Kingston for four years,
and held many other professional, business
and political offices.
The latest achievement of his life was the
discovery Of Cal-cura Solvent, u positive
cure for all diseases of the kidneys and blad-
der. Inspeaking of this remarkable remedy.
he said: "Cal-cura Solvent is the crowning
achievement of my life. 1t will not dis
appoint"
Your druggist will return your money if
Cal-cura fails to cure, and The Cal-cura
Company, of Rondout, N. Y, will pay the

RATS RUIN AN ORGAN.
Little Rodents Get Busy and Eat the
Bellows.

The Episcopalians of Welsboro, Pa.
installed new $1,000 pipe organ in
their church this Summer. The church
paid $4,000 of the cost of the organ,
and Mr.. Carnegie paid the balance.
AT first the organ gave excellent salts
faction, but recently some of the pipes
refused to respond and lately so few
of them sounded that the organ could
not be used.
An expert was sent from the fac.
tory the other day to ascertain the
cause of the loss of tone. To the sur.
prise of every one he found that rats
were responsible for the trouble. The
organ had 222 bellows to feed the
pneumatics, and of these 22I had
been destroyed.
The rodents had gnawed the little
leather bellows into pieces. 1t will be
considerable trouble to replace them,
and as they are rather costly the
church will have large bill to charge
up to the account of the rats.

State Wants Costs Paid.

Attorney John H. Dando, has com.
menced proceedings to compel County
Controller Mclean to pay the costs in
two cases in which game warden
Campbell was the plaintiff. A few
weeks ago Mr.. Campbell arrested two
men near Pittston for violation of the
game laws. They were taken before
Squire James Ehret of Pittston and in
default Of twenty-five dollar fine
were sentenced to thirty five days in
Jail. When Mr.. Ehret presented his
bill of cost to the controller the latter
refused payment. The case was
brought to the attention ofState game
commissioner Meehan and he directed
Mr.. Dando to commence proceedings
to compel the controller to pay the
costs.

The Oostliest Thing in the World.

Radium, we had heard a lot
about, but we had never seen any
thing understandable about it until
we read Cleveland Moffett's ac-
count of it in the November Nc
Clure's. Mr.. Moffett interviewed
its discoverers, M. and Nine. Curie
in Paris, and learned from them all
about it. 1t is marvellous thing,
very costly, very beneficial in dis
ease, very dangerous when not
properly used, and an altogether
unique substance. Mr.. Moffett has
written the clearest and most in
teresting article we have yet seen
on the subject.

In conversation with him we learn
ed that w. S. Rishton has this
year purchased and used ten times
as much coco-cola as any other
dealer in town. This is highly
congratu.atory to Mr.. Rishton and
attests the great popularity of his
fountain. The amount of syrup
CONSUMED by Mr.. Rishton is ten

O. hundred and one other causes. But
have you ever heard any one place the
blame on the teeth? Bad teeth are the
direct result of insufficient application
of the toothbrush, and bad eyesight,
resulting from the decayed molars ex-
citing disturbances Of the ocular
nerves, is the next inevitable penalty.
That is fact which seems to be little
known.
'"The other day I extracted four de-
cayed teeth Of a young girl who was
almost totally blind Her pupils were
dilated and insensible A week after
I had pulled her teeth her sight was
practically restored. Two months pre-
v1ous to this cure the girl had been ex-
amined by an expert oculist, who,
after putting her to various eye tests,
designated the case as 'hysterical am
byopia,' and guess that's about all
he satisfaction the girl got, judging
by her condition when she came to me.
In saying this do not think for mo-
lnent that am in any way prejudiced
against oculists. merely cite the in

dream would ever be fulfilled, When.
however, in his period Of greatest de-

friendship of the late king. of Bavaria
it seemed suddenly as if all things
were possible to him. In 1867 his royal
protector instructed the celebrated
architect, Gottfried Semper, to prepare
the plans for the theater, which was
to be built at Munich. Through POI
litical and professional dissensions and
refused permission for the erection Of
the theater there. In 1871 Wagner

counsel with the celebrated bankers,
Messrs. Fenstel and Gross, decided

accrue, presented Wagner with two
plots Of land, one for the theater and
the other forshis own house. The lat

Wagner removed his family from
Trubchen, near Lucerne, to the new
home, Wahnfried. The corner stone of
the theater was laid on his sixtieth
birthday, May %, 1872. 1t was esti-
mated that the theater would cost
100000 thalers (about $25O,OOO, and
this sum was very largely raised by
Wagner societies throughout the world.

MAKES WOOD LAST LONGER.
Seasoning and Preserving, New Method
Of Forest Economy.

The rapid disappearance of the
best American timbers has devel-
oped a new method of economy
which is in brief, that inferior tim
bers shall be pressed in service and
by proper seasoning and preserv
ing be made to take the place of
those more valuable.
The idea is the inevitable out
come of wasteful cutting, long con
tinued, which has culled the forest
of their best trees, SO that indus
tries requiring high-grade woods,
at low cost are less and less able
to obtain supplies at price which
they can afford to pay. White oak,
for example, was for many years
practically the only wood used for
railroad ties. So abundant and
cheap was this timber that it never
occurred to the railroads it would
not always continue to be abundant
and cheap. Ties were laid without
seasoning two days after they had
been hewn, or were left to lie and
decay in bitches of water before
they we're put in the track, But
conditions have changed: white oak
for ties, fence posts, piles and other
common purposes can not be used
to the same extent as formerly, and
it's place has largely been taken by
inferior timbers.
It is not enough that forestry on
a large scale replace the present
wasteful methods of cutting, since
forestry can mol make up immedi-
ately for what has been lost 1t is
essential, while administering wise
" to forests which still remain, that
the timbers cut be now pnt to their
highest use; that good timber be
put only to a high grade purpose,
and that a poor timber be substi
tuted for a good timber whenever it
will do the work required.
This kind of forest economy the
Bureau of Forestry, having in minc
the increasing demand for gooC
timbers and the diminishing fores
resources, has persistently urgeo
and encouraged. By every avail
able means it has attempted to fine
uses for woods not now regarded as
. merchantable and to substitute
them for woods rarer but better
known. The railroads, especially
! enormous consumers of wood, have
been impressed with the necessit!
| of such a substitution. LodgepOl'
| pine in the North Invest has been lai(
as ties during the past year insteat
5 of bull pine. Shortleaf and lobloll,
| ties will probably soon replace thos
of longleaf in Mississippi, Louisian;
| and Texas. Hemlock and tamaracl
will take the place of oak and PIN
in other parts of the country; ant
when oak is used at all for ties i
will be the inferior species instead
of the valuable white oak.
The substitution of low grade fol
high grade timbers depends OF
what can be done to increase TIT
