HERE'S AN EXAMPLE
For other Public Spirited Citizens
to Follow.

Dighton McGlach]in: II note with
pleasure the public spirited offer Of
Howard s. Hedger to donate trees to
those who will plant them in certain
parts of the city, also the News edi-
torial in Saturdays issue upon beau
tifying the city by tree planting, lawn
culture, ect. Everything that is pos
sible should be done to not only stimu-
late tree planting but to encourage
careful care and culture after plant
ing. Let every one take an interest
in the matter. Let every one owning
live stock see that they are kept away
from growing trees and lawns. Let
each and every resident appoint him-
self q committee Of one to see that
no one is allowed to become so care
less as to tie horses or teams where
they can reach and injure growing
trees. I have no interest in the sale
Of Aberdeen real estate or any kind
cf nursery stock, but in order to stim-
sulate a friendly rivalry and en-
courage study and care on tree cul-
ture would cheerfully subscribe to q
cash fund to be offered in prizes, either

Weak
Hearts

Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine Of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges-
ton. II is scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to. but are the direct result Of indi-
geston. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart This interferes with the action of
the heart, and in the course OF time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

For liver troubles and constipation
There's nothing better in creation
Than Little Early Risers, the famous

They always effect a cure and save doctor

Little Early Risers, are different from
all other pills. They do not weaken the
system, but act as a tonic to the tissues
by arousing the secretions and restoring
the liver to the full performance of its
functions naturally.

RUN BY MOUSE POWER

MIR. Hutton had one mouse that ran the
amazing distance of eighteen miles day,
out ne proved that an ordinary mouse
could run ten and one-half miles on an
average. A halfpenny's worth of oatmeal
was sufficient for its support for thirty
hVe days, during which it ran 1876 half
miles. He had actually two mice con-
stantly employed in the making Of sewing
thread for more than a year. The mouse
thread mill was so constructed that the
common house mouse was enabled to make
atonement to society for past offenses by
twisting, twining and reeling from 100 to
100 threads a day, Sundays not excepted.
had to run ten and one-half miles, and
this journey it performed with ease every
day. A halfpenny's worth of oatmeal
served one of these thread mill culprits
TOR the long period of five weeks. In that
time it made $3.50 threads of twenty-five
inches, and as penny was paid to women
for every hank made in the ordinary wav,
the mouse, at that rate, earned ninepence
every six weeks ujst one farthing a day,
or seven shillings and sixpence a year.
J Taking sixpence off for board and al
lowing one, shilling for machinery, thera
was a clear yearly profit from each mouse
OF six shillings. Mr.. Hutton firmly in
tended to apply for the loan Of the empty
cathedral in Dunfermline, which would
have held, he calculated, 10000 mousa
mills, sufficient room being left for keep
ers and some hundreds of spectators.
Death, however. overlook the inventor be-
fore this marvellous project could be car
ried out.

WELL-PAiD LITERARY WORK

In the October Bookman there is an in
teresting statement by Eugene Didier,
showing the compensation he has received
for his articles contributed to the PERI
odicals. Mr.. Dtdier can afford to be frank,
for he has not worked for glory, but for
wholesome solid cash. He was never
marked for starvation in a garrett, or grim
despair which pushed Chatterton to sui
eide. There are forty items showing paw
for contributions to Harper, Scribner,
North American Review, Munsey's and
other periodicals and leading newspapers.
For one paper in Harper's he received $50
and the same for a paper in Scribners 5,
and for one in the New York Sun. The
Baltimore News paid him 5000 for one
article and he got $40 for an article in the
encyclopedias Britannica. The list shows
that he received noting lower than $25 for
an article. Mr.. Didier who has written
successful books, affirns that no book
writing has been as profitable to him as
writing for magazines and periodicals gem
orally. There is no doubt that this is true.
A fairly good writer who knows what will
interest the public at once, and can treat
his subject intelligently and originally,
can maintain himself very comfortably il
he once gets his hand in on magazine
writing. He can keep his string, in
definitely.

Edinburgh Scotsman.


Thrift is generally acknowledged to be
one of the leading characteristics of the
native of Fifeshire, and it never was more
forcibly exemplifed. than in the person of
David Hutton, a native of Dunfermline,
who actually proved that even mice, those
acknowledged pests of mankind, could be
made not only to- earn their own living,
but, also to yield a respectable income to
their owners.
About the year. 1920 this, gentleman
actually erected a small mill at Dunferm-
line for the manufacture Of thread-a mill
worked entirely by mice. It was while
visiting Perth prison in 1872 that Mr.
Hutton first conceived this remarkable
idea of utilizing mouse power. In an old
pamphlet Of the time, 1.-The Curiosity Cof-
fee Room, +" he gave an account of the way
in which the idea daWned on him. TN the
summer of the year 1872 he wrote, IT
had occasion to be in Perth, and when in
specting the toys and trinl1ets that were
manufactured by the French prisoners in
tariy sattra etedlby a little LIGHTHOUSE; with,

the most practicable .,.- ......s, ..-.

beetle They did; they solidified the south
and divided the republican party. If he
had been prea ching on reconstruction the
figure would have flashed on him then, and
he would have given it to his congregation
from the pulpit.
Mr.. Beecher was denouncing the incon-
sistency Of church members; stopped inn
agined an interlocutor calling him to ac-
count for exposing the sins of church
members before the world; and thus re-
piled: DO you not suppose the world
knows them better than I do?- The world
sees this church member in Wall street,
as greedy, as .rapacious, as eager, as un-
scrupulous as his companions. He says
to himself, Is that Christianity? I win
go to church next Sunday, and see what
the ministerN says, about this. He goes
and what is the minister saying?' In
stantly Mr.. Beecher folded his arms upon
his breast, held an imaginary cat purring
comfortably there, as he stroked it with
the other hand, and continued: 1.-THE min

The national convention of the grain
dealers is a most important gathering,
especially to such a grain city as Mime
apolis.. The grain dealers play very
large part in our economy. They are the
men who look after the buying, shipping
and marketing of one of the chief sources
OF wealth of the American people. They
are mostly experts in their line, and they
have so fully organized and systematized
the grain trade that in doing good to
themselves they have done good to others
There Is chronic attempt to array the
producers against the dealers, but the pro-
ducers would suffer greatly if the dealers
had not provided such a sure and speedy
method of marketing grain.
