"A postal card is to small to begin my praise of your wonderful preparation, Par acamph. My first experience with Para ca1nph was about one year ago; my little girl was very badly burned with hot grease One of my kind neighbors recommended Paracamph and gave me what she had on hand, as we live in the country and could not immediately getit from town. The first application gave relief. We used about three bottles and the burns were healed up nicely, although they were very bad burns.
 My little girl was playing and fell knock ing the grease in her lap; she was burned ou both legs from the knees almost to her hips, and in removing her clothing great deal of the skin came of, leaving her legs perfectly raw. have used Paracamph for great many things since then, and never like to be without it in my house. have quite family and find it a great task to write, but I hope my letter will reach you in time, as I am great friend of Para camph. could tell you more of its good works but guess this will be enough for this time. am always willing to sound the praise of valuable remedy"
 This letter should convince all mothers ofthe necessity for keeping in their homes bottle of Paracamph. This wonderful remedy is needed almost every day in the year. It not only relieves pain quickly but 1t heals all manner of wounds without leaving ugly scars.

$l3, 900, 900 was expended for rural
tree delivery. For the fiscal year upon
which we have now entered $50, SIG =

tinuance and extension of the rural

OIL AND CIGARS.
Kentucky Coming Petroleum Field
Of WOrId-MilliOnS Of Cigars
Made In fiscal Year.

production of 1908 was greater than
that of any previous year, while the
general average price paid for crude
petroleum was greater by more than
fourteen cents per barrel than the
average price for 1902, and the still
more important fact that the produc-
tion in Kentucky increased over 369,
900 barrels.
ION the other hand the production
decreased in Ohio, West Virginia
and Pennsylvania, which decrease
amounted to total of 1,S56, 219 bar
rels as compared with 1902, the largest
decrease being.in Pennsylvania, which
decrease amounted to 7OS, 724 barrels.
"When the value of the petroleum
OF the Ohio and Lima, Ind, fields,
which includes Kentucky, is consider

THE MICROSCOPES VALUE.
Italian Inventors Device TO View
Bottom of the Sea.

A clever instrument has been de-
vised by Cavaliere Giuseppe Pine, an
Italian inventor, by which the bottom
of the sea can be examined with
clearness that has hitherto been I'M
possible says the London Sphere. This
invention and one to raise objects are
in daily use, the operations being SUI
pervised by the inventor.
The hydroscope-such is the name
given to the instrument for seeing OBJ
iects in the sea or on the sea bottom
is constructed of steel and in shape Is
like a huge telescope pointed down
ward into coral caverns or sunken
ships instead of upward at the sun or
the stars. Its complex system of
lenses, twelve in number, answers to
the objective glass of a celestial tele-
scope. BY the internal mirrors they
produce a clear picture Of the sea bot
tom, the rays of light passing up the
tube to sort of camera obscura house
at the top, which floats above the sur
face and is capable of holding four
people.
The amount of light under the sur
face is considerably greater than is
generally imagined. The inventor Of
the MICROSCOPE has himself been able
to read newspaper lying on the sea
bottom at depth of $50 feet from the
surface by the ordinary daylight pen
etrating the water. The area viewed
by the lenses at the bottom Of the tube
varies according to the amount of
light. The water at the bottom of the
sea Is often clearer than at the sur
face, as sediment can sink in still wa
ter. whereas at the surface sand and
other matter is kept in solution by the
constant movement of the waves, the
force of which is not felt few feet
beneath the surface.
The microscope is also likely to prove
