FIshing with Dynamite.

amount of moonshine the German farmer makes and which is put at 100000 gall Ions annually.
 The German potato acreage for 1902 was S007. .465, while the acerage in the United States was 2965,5S7 In Germany the market value of the yield per acre was $S992, and In the United States it was &522. Out of the 1,600000,000 bushels pro- dueed in Germany, Consul Warner re- ports the enormous total of 713,971,536 as being consumed at the table, the balance going to the distllaton and for food to animals. Consul Warner fails to make any report, or suggestions, as to the qual- ity of the whiskey made from potatoes, but Kentucky will look with indifference on the omission Her corn product is good enough, and most willingly is she willing to leave the potato brand to Ger many. And, just to think of it, How would Marse Henry's mint look in gob- let of potato-made whlskey? Ugh

WHISKY AND POTATOES.
Kentucky Tilts Her Nose at the Ger
 man Brand of Tanglefoot.

From the Owensboro ONy0 Messenger.
 The recent communication from consul Warner, stationed at Liepzig, Germany, to the state department is of special in- terest on the expressing subject of po- tatoes and whiskey. From his report it is learned that in 1892 Germany produced 1,60o000,0O0 bushels of potatoes as against 2S5 000, 900 bushels produced in the United States, the price, however, the German farmers receive being less than in the United States when the tubers are sold for table consumption. It is otherwise when the German farmer sells his pota- toes to the distillery, for if there is any
 thing dear to the heart-and the stomach of the German farmer it is white Ticker made from the potato. The German far mer sold to the distillery in 1902 the large number of 1170O0, GOO bushels of potatoes not so very much less than one-half the total growth of the United States-and from that number of bushels the distiler extracted whiskey to the number of 93,- 000000 gallons That number of gallons might be called straight whisky-if po- tato whiskey can be straight goods-and does not take into account the large

Physical Side of Literature.

From the London Graphic.
 Apropos of the sadly eartly death Of NJ. Gaston Larroumet, a French contem- porary raises the question whether there is anything in the nature of literary pur- suits that makes against longevity. The answer is of course, that essentially there is nothing, but that accidentally there may be a great deal That the actual worry of composition wears out the frame prematurely is more than the facts warrant anyone in saying. In every age and in every country literature has been we'll represented py hale and hearty veterans. Legouve, Mommsen, Tolstoi, Tennyson, Whittier, Oliver Wendell Holmes and George Meredith are the most obvious names on a list that every reader will be able to supplement. So long as it is possible to compile. such list without even stopping to. think the most bitter enemies of literature. can hardly class it with unhealthy. trades. Poets. dramatists and novelsts seem on the average to live. longer than millionaires, and insurance offices have no reason to refuse their premiums.

WIN-T FIR $ COMING BRINGING CATARRH

Every Catarrh sufferer dreads breath of the ice-kiug" this mise the disgusting symptoms return. throat can be kept clear of mucous and splitting. Catarrh is a nuisance and source of annoyance, not only to the one who has it, but everybody else. The thick, yellow discharge from the head produces a feeling of personal deflement, and the odor of the breath is almost intolerable.
 Q The catarrhal poison brings on stomach troubles and affects the Kid neys and Bladder. It attacks the soft bones and tissues of the head and throat, causing total or panial deafness, the loss of smell, and giv- ing to the voice a rasping, nasal twang. No part of the body is secure from its ravages. Catarrh makes you sick all over, for it is a dis ease of the blood and circulates all through the system, and for this reason, sprays, washes, inhalers, powders and salves have proven failures.
 The way to cure Catarrh thor oughly and permanently IS to cleanse the blood of the unhealthy secretions that keep the membranes of the body inflamed, and nothing does this so surely and promptly as S. s. s. As long as the blood is poisoned with Catarrhal matter the discharge of II
