ISSUING LESS TAGS.
Conclusions In Regard to Grain Acer-
age In West Virginia Based on Ferti-
liver ScaIes.

lizer Scales.
Experiment Station officers say that
the number Of tags issued TO manu-
facturers of grain fertilizers this year
10 only about two thirds as great as
the number issued last year. The
law requires that each sack, sold in
The state must bear d tag, and these
are issued by The Experiment Station.
La this way, it is possible TO compute
with great accuracy the number Of
pounds of fertilizer sold in the state.
The falling off this year indicates
that less fertilizer is being used, and
that less grain is being sown. The
manufacturers claim they had some
tags left over from last year. but this
does not account fo. the whole de-
crease. One member OF the Expert
ment Station force says the high
price Of labor has made it impossible
for the farmer to raise grain in some
sections with profit, and they are not
buying fertilizer.

Ladies and Children Invited

All ladies and children who can
not stand the shocking strain Of
laxative syrups, cathartlcs, etc, are
invited to try the famous Little
Early Risers. They are different
from all other pills. They do not
purge the system. Even a double
dose will not grippe, weaken or
sicken; many people call them the
the Easy Pill. W. II. Howell
Houston, Tex, says nothing better
can be used for constipation, sick
headache, etc. Bob Moore, La
tayette, Ind, says all others grippe

A Picked Traveller.

A traveller in Tartary tells the follow
ing story Of corpulent Greek servant
who accompanied him: ''At the end of
the third day the well seasoned kavass
in attendance, whose whole life had
been passed in the saddle, came, with
q smile, to report that Gurgis was un-
able to proceed from abrasion, as the
doctors called it, of the epidermis. He
can't be left behind. sir, in the desert,
added the old beirakdar so, with your
leave, we will give him the Tartar
bath A tub of the strongest brine was
accordingly prepared, in which the I'M
fortunate Gurgis was forthwith i'm
mersed, uttering the most appalling
bowls at the first plunge, but subsiding
shortly afterward and eventually after
half an hours tanning coming out so
effectively case hardened that he rode
farther thousand miles to the Black
sea in the course Of the next week
without showing a symptom of dis
tress."

Unn,usicaI wolves.


An incident just reported from Sivas,
Turkey, seems to prove that the feel
ing which music awakens in wolves is
fright. Two muSicians-a drummer
and piper-returning to their village
from a wedding party were overtaken
by a snowstorm and sought refuge in
a deserted mill. They lit fire with
some wood they found in the place
and were warming Themselves when
they saw a wolf emerge from a dark
corner of the building. They jumped
up on a shelf and, to their dismay,
saw several more wolves join the first.
The animals rushed in their direction,
and the drummer, at loss for mode
of defense, set to beating his drum,
whereupon his companion instinctively
played his pipe. The effect was mar
velous. The music so terrified the
wolves that they attempted TO run
away, and as the door was closed, they
began fighting, and several Of them
were torn to pieces, the survivors
eventually escaping through hole in
the wall. This incident is vouched for
by the Government Gazette Of Sivas.

Read IL I'm His Newspaper

George Schaub, a we'll known
German citizen of New Lebanon,
Ohio, Is a constant reader of the
Dayton Volkszeitung. He knows
that his paper aims to advertise
only the best In Its columns, and
when he saw Chamberlain's Pain
Balm advertised therein for lame
back, he did not hesitate In buying
a bottle of 1t for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains In her back and
could get no relief. He says, "Af
ter using the Pain Balm for few
days my wife said to me, I feel as
though born anew and before
using the entire contents of the
bottle the unbeatable pains had
entirely vanished and she could
again take up her household du-
ties" He Is very thankful and
hopes that all suffering likewise
will hear of her wonderful discov'
cry. This valuable liniment IS for

Length of Life Is Increasing.

The average length Of human life IS
constantly and steadily increasing, hay
ing, according to n professor Of ny
giene. doubled within the past three
centuries. In the sixteenth century 1t
was between eighteen and twenty
years, while today it IS forty. The
principal agencies in this prolongation
Of life, the scientist believes, are more
attention to the air we breathe and
more care as to the water we drink.
This opinion is sustained by the sta
tistics Of large cities, which show that
owing to improved sanitation, the in
PRODUCTION of sewers and Of public wa
ter supplies. their rates Of mortality
within the past forty years have been
reduced to about one-half. Do you
want to prolong your life and increase
your powers? Then breathe deeply
and drink plenty Of pure water be-
tween, not at, meals-not iced water or
boiled water, but distilled water.-Suc-

A STALLION FIGHT.
Battle Royal Between n Thorough
bred and n Wild Buckskin.

A contest between two stations, one
the leader Of a wild band, the other a
Kentucky thoroughbred that had run
wild, is thus described by Sewell Ford
in Horses Nine"
Again the buckskin stallion charged.
ears back, eyes cleaning wickedly and
snorting defiantly. This time the black
stood his ground until the buckskin's
teeth snapped savagely within a few
inches Of his throat. Just in time did
he rear and swerve. Twice more-tor
the paddock raised black was slow TO
understand such behavior-the buck
skin charged. Then the black was
reused into aggressiveness.
There ensued such battle as would
have brought delight to the. brute soul
of a Nero. With fore feet and teeth
the two stations engaged, circling mad
" about on their hind legs, tearing up
great clods Of turf, biting and striking
as opportunity offered. At last, by a
quick, desperate rush, the buckskln
caught the thoroughbred fairly by the
throat. Here the affair would have
ended had not the black stallion, rear
ing suddenly on his muscle ridged
launches and lifting his opponents
fore quarters clear Of the ground
showered on his enemy such 4 rain OF
blows from his iron shod feet that the
wild buckskin dropped to the ground,
dazed and vanquished.
Standing over him, with all the fierce
pride Of victorious gladiator showing
in every curve of his glistening body,
the black thoroughbred trumpeted out
a stentorian call of defiance and COM
mand. The band that had watched the
struggle from a discreet distance now
came galloping in, whinnying in friend
ly fashion.
Black Eagle had won his first fight.
He had won the leadership. By right
of might he was now chief OF this free
company of plains rangers. 1t was for
him to lead whittier he chose, to pick
the place and hour Of grazing, the time
for watering and his to guard his com
panions from all dangers.
As for the buckskin stallion, there re-
NAMED for him the choice Of humbly
following the new leader or Of limpinG
off alone to try to raise a new band
Being a worthy descendant Of the
chargers which the men Of Cortes rode
so fearlessly into the wilds Of the new
world, he chose the latter course and,
having regained his senses, galloped
stiffly toward the north, his bruised
head lowered in defeat.

posed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced 1t
local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly falling

nounced 1t incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitution

THEY MUST LIE

It seems that nothing fair and hon
est can ever come from the pluto
cratic daily press. The editors OF
those papers must misrepresent every
thing that comes up for comment. Just
at present they are Dragging about the
superior credit Of the United States
over that of Great Britain. They say;
'"rhe present per cent bonds of the
United States now sell in the open
market at SLOT, which means per
cent above par, and this, too, while
British consols are selling at s91 on
the $100, or 9 per cent less than face
value"
The conclusion they draw is that
the people of the United States pay a
much less rate of interest on their
public debt than do the people of Eng
land, all owing to the wonderful good
ness of the republican party. Tie
fact is that the people Of this country
pay in the end a much higher rate.
These 2 per cent bonds that are being
sold at 107 can be used by the national
bankers to issue currency and the
