A PROPHECY.

J. Pierpont Morgan isn't disturbing anybody very much just now. but it is pointed out that year ago he said: It may be true, as some of the captious critics declare, that at the present mo- ment there are in the market many un- digested securities; but ought not the into consideration in broad and com prehensive view of the situation ?As for the general situation, you may state emphatically and unequivocally that it is most promising, with the country un- qualifiedly prosperous. In the iron and steel trade, for example-the barometer of the country's growth, stability and business activity-there never was so great or so profitable business. Orders on hand run far ahead, and the outlook is decidedly encouraging. In short, sum ming the situation up, not only is there prosperity everywhere, but the promises are for continuation of that prosperity for a long time to come.
 Since MT. Morgan thus spoke the character of some of these securities" has been taken into consideration, and there has been wailing and gnashing of teeth on account of what the considera- ton has revealed. And the iron and steel trade hasn't greatly encouraged the owners of United States Steel stocks, But of course Mir. Morgan can't now be expected to Ia as infallible as he was once thought to be.

The cattle business in the Cherokee nation this year shows that this great industry has been reduced very mate- rially in the past few years. The range has been cut short since the Cherokee land office opened. Large pastures have been filed on and cut up into eighty and one hundred and sixty acre farms, and are being put into cultiva- tion. The cattlemen have come to the conclusion that it is best to keep a smaller number of cattle but of a higher grade, and they estimate that, as 8 result, the value of the cattle in the Cherokee nation in a few years will be as great as it ever was, but that the number of cattle will be largely de- creased. The Cherokee farmers have caught the idea, and they believe that to have a better grade of cattle will be for the best. Indian cattle will soon be thing of the past, and the pure-blood cattle are coming to the front.

Cause of LockJsW

Lockiaw, or tetanus is caused by
bacillus or germ which exists plenti-
fully in street dirt. 1t is inactive so
long as exposed to the air, but when
carried beneath the skin as in the
wound caused by percussion
caps or by rusty nails, and when the
air is excluded the germ is reused to
activity and produces the most viru-
lent poison known. These germs may
be destroyed and all danger OF lock-
Jaw avoided by applying Chamber
lain's Pain Balm freely as soon asthe
injury is received. Pain Balm is an
antiseptic and causes cuts, bruises
and like injuries to heal without mat
uration and in one third the time re-
ouired by the usual treatment. 1t is
