From Tuesdays Daily.
Capt. Lawrence, of the local secret
service bureau, received today letter
from c. H. Rogers, a photographer at
Rochester, Mimi, offering to give infor-
nation as to green goods men in New
York, stating that he had been bilked
out of $475 in such a deal in New York
city, and inquiring if there were any re-
ward.
Capt. Lawrence replied with a stiff
warning that Rogers might be prosecuted
for having counterfeit money.-St. Paul

Motor Building In France.

Probably few foreigners have any
idea of the extent to which the motor
car industry has been developing in
France, says the Autocar. Last year
there were seventy makers of complete
chassis, turning out $4,000 vehicles.
During the present year this number
has been enormously increased. It is
clear that if all these makers are to do
a profitable business there must be a
rapid increase of demand But as long
as prices are SO high this desired in
crease is not likely to be required. Max
ers have been giving special attention
to the export trade, which has grown
at q phenomenal rate during the past
two years, and as the value of auto
cars sent abroad during the first ten
months of the year totaled nearly A,
100000 francs it is certain that the ex
ports for 1903 will exceed 100000.

1t is rank foolishness to attempt
to remove sallowness or greasiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or local treatment, as advocated
by the beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat Of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, purifies the
complexion. It also cures consti-
patton, biliousness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case of dyspepsia
and digestion. New trial size bottle

NEW CORN AND COB RECORD
Missouri Farmers Who VIII Shell
Their Corn Before Selling 1t.

missouri FARMERS VINO WIFI shell
Their Corn Before Selling 1t.
According to good authorities. the
highest average amount of corn to the
cob that can be raised is about SO per
cent corn and II per cent cob. But the
high authorities had not heard from
Missouri when they figured up their
average, and two Cooper county farm
ers have recently made it look like 80
cents, says the Kansas City Journal
w J. Mcfarland Of near Boonville
recently weighed seventy pounds of
corn in the ear. He then shelled the
corn and weighed corn and cobs sepa-
rately. The corn weighed sixty four
and one-half pounds and the cobs five
and one-half pounds, making 90 IT per
cent corn and Z CT per cent cob. The
corn was exhibited at the Boonville
corn show. r. B. Johnston of Clark's
Fork, who made display at the Boon
vile show Of thirty pounds of
corn, found after Smelling it that his
corn weighed thirty-four and one-half
pounds and his cobs four and one-half
pounds-that is, he raised SO 6-13 per
cent corn to IL 7-13 per cent cob.
In almost all the states of the Union
seventy pounds Of corn on the cob is
considered bushel and fifty -six pounds
off the cob. 1t would pay men who
raise such corn as do Messrs. McFar-
land and Johnston to shell their corn
before selling it.

GOING BACK TO THE FARM.
The Agricultural College as IA Factor
In Upbuilding of Country Life.


In UpbuiIding of Country Life.
One of the most serious problems
that confronts the economic world to-
day is to keep the young men on the
farms, says the Lewiston (Me) Jour-
nal. For many years there has been
tendency to congregate in the cities,
and to such an extent has this been
carried that all the vacations of city
life have been SO OvercroWded that to-
day it is well nigh impossible for
stranger to get a foothold. For every
situation there are q score of appG-
cants, and the young man who has 40
influential friends to render him aid is
indeed unfortunate. We have long be-
lieved that this condition of affairs
would correct itself One Of the rea
sons that our young men have been SO
willing to leave the old country home
has been the lack of country attrac-
tons. This can hardly be said to hold
good today The trolley car, telephone
and free rural delivery have well nigh
wiped out the distinctions between city
and suburban life. Another powerful
factor now working for the pubuild1ng
Of the country life is the agricultural
college Our young men are fast learn
ing that farming is no longer the hap
hazard business of a former day, but is
one of the most exacting and scientific
Of pursuits. With this knowledge
come a higher respect for the voca-
ton and a stronger desire to enter the
industry. The tide is thus gradually
but surely turning, and the time is near
at hand when farming will be held in
the same high regard here that it has
long been in England. In that country
when a man achieves financial success
he at once seeks a country estate for
q home.
Here the reverse has long held true
and the city home has been held up as
the ideal. This false system of ethics
is rapidly going to the wall, and more
exalted idea of country life is taking
its place. Rich and poor alike are be-
ginning to take to the farm. 1t is the
ideal spot for home.

A good story of his editorial
days is told of Representive
Brownlow of Tennessee. He was
running a country paper in that
state and had things pretty warm
for some of his enemies, using
language which was vigorous and
meant fight. Just after the paper
had gone to press one week Edi-
tor Brownlow was in his den fig
uring how he was going to pay his
printer and buy paper for the next
issue. A savage looking fellow,
with a heavy club clenched in his
hand, walked in and asked If the
editor was in. "No; he's out, !"
said the sly Brownlow, "but he'll
be back in a few minutes. Just
have seat and I'll 60 out and
hunt him UP.
The man with the club took a
chair and putting his feet on top
of the desk proceeded to make
himself at home. Brownlow
walked down the stairs, and at the
foot he met another irate fellow
they were from adjoining counties
and unknown to the editor. ''Will

upstairs!' asked the man OF

reply. "He is up there at the
desk and just itching for a fight. ,;
The fellow ambled up and had no
trouble in finding the second man
and accepting the information Civ.

editor. The two were soon in a
rough and tumble fight, while the
present congressman was out on
the street talking politics. How

anyone who advanced the theory
that anything SO beautiful must be
good to eat, was likely to meet
with the rejoinder from some plous
person. "No, its beauty is the

compensation gives its beauty to
make up for its lack of real merit;
if you would be safe, leave it
alone and partake Of those things
which are plain and have not the

others combatted that idea in q

old adage, Beauty is the mark
that God places on virtue or rea
