Repairing the Minnie Ogden.

T. +. Sawyer is repairing the Minnie
Ogden, of West Point, which is in
Clover creek. The boat was sunk al
most over the pilot house and was badly
damaged by water and mud. When she
is put in shape to run she will 60 to
Mound City, Ill, to tow corn and toma-
toes for the branch canning factory of
the J. T. Polk Com pan Y at that place.
The Minnie Ogden is fifty feet long,
twelve feet wide, and is propelled by a
twenty horse power gasoline engine.
The boat and a large covered barge
were bought from the West Point owners
by the J. T. Polk Company at the low
price of $780, but it will be necessary to
spend about $500, for repairs on her.
Mr. Sawyer expects his contract to re-
quire two or three weeks for completion.

Indiu Rubber.

Few articles seem more strangely
named than india rubber. 1t gets the
rubber" from the first use to which
it was put-that of erasing pencil
marks by rubbing. Nor should it be
associated with India. The tree was
first mentioned by an explorer among
the Mexican Indians three centuries
ago, and the first account of the sub
stance occurs in connection with Co
lumbus' visit to Haiti on his second
voyage. Most of our present importa-
ton comes from Brazil. But Column
bus and those explorers who followed
him were searching for short passage
to India, and they supposed that the
land they discovered was India. The
name india rubber is therefore a per
manent sign of their mistake.

DO XOU NEED 4
MEDICINE?
N COSTS rOU NOTHING TO INVESTIGATE.

There is no one who does not need a
Liver Medicine occasionally.
The symptoms of Liver Complaint are
we'll known to every one, such as consti-
patton, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, sleep.
lessness, headache, a tired feeling and
many others of a similar nature.
Thousands die annually by not needing
the warnings of nature.
Many acquire some chronic disease
from which they never recover.
Many of these could be spared for years
of usefulness, by keeping in the home
some reliable remedy.
We believe that we can convince any
fair-minded person that there is no bet
ter remedy for the Liver known, than
DIR. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup.
The formula is known, consisting of
Buchu, Hydrangea, Mandrake, Yellow
Dock, Dandelion, Sarsaparilla, Gentian,
SIENNA and Iodide of Potassium. You
know Just what you are taking. How
MANY other formulas of a liver medicine
are published1 Ask your druggist about
this 1t is already prepared and can be
taken Immediately.
The strength is extracted in the most
skillful manner, certainly superior to any
powdered preparation known. 1--WE also
manufacture a Liver Medicine in pow
dered form, with which any druggist can
supply you, but this, like all other dry
Liver Medicines requires preparation.)
DR.. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup
is pleasant to take, does not lose its
strength, as Liver Medicine i'll dry form,
and will keep in any climate.
Your doctor, however skillful, could
prescribe nothing better.
There is no opportunity for a doctor
to make a mistake in writing a prescrip-
ton, or a drug clerk to make a mistake
in compromising the same, besides a
doctors bill and the cost of the medi-
cine.) You can be absolutely sure of the
proper proportion being in every dose.
DIR. Thachers Liver and Blood Syrup
has been used with the greatest conf
dence and success in thousands of homes
for 50 years, and is prepared by phar-
macist of 25 years experience, in labo-
ratory equipped with the most modern

there were any more good eggs in the

found bad. I told him a story, the in.
cidents of which had come under my
own observation, illustrating the con.
stancy of a true woman and her need
of the perfect confidence of the man
whom she loves.
This man was a good enough fellow
in his way, but he was of a suspicious
nature. and no loyal woman will ever
discover her affection to the man who
distrusts her. He believed that he had

know that all her gentle woman's
heart required was that he should cast

Cause of Sleeping Sickness.

The investigations by the govern
mental commission sent to Uganda
have discovered the cause of the Sleep
ing sickness, which has caused so many
thousand deaths among tie natives.
Buyuma Island, which had 4 popuia-
ton of $4,000, has now but 5000. The
southern province of Busoga mas been
practically ~depopulated.
The first step in the discovery was
the observation Of trypanosomcs in tie
cerebro-spinal fluid in five cases OF the
sleeping sickness. A further investlga-
ton showed the existence of this para
site in the cerebro-spinal fluid and in
the circulating blood of all of the cases.
AS it was closely related to the disease
of cattle caused by the tsetse fly, it was
suspected that the sleeping sickness
was caused in like manner by lnfec-
ton.

LIQUOR and Efficiency.

The views on total abstinence voiced by
Count Won Haeseler, of the German Army,
are of considerable interest. The Count
is himself a teetotaler and declares that
the soldier who abstains altogether can
march better and is a better soldier than
the man who drinks even moderately.
"Strong drink tires and only increases the
thirst" he says, and recommends instead
water, coffee and, above all, tea"
In America, where the efficiency of the
soldier is not quite so vital a question as
it is in Germany, Count Won Haeseler,s
testimony is, nevertheless, important. We
have our own great army Of peace in which
we are all officers or enlisted men. II IL
quor is bad for the German soldier, if 1t
reduces his efficiency mentally and ply
s~ically, how much more injurious is it to
the American soldier in the army of busi-
ness? Many of the effects OF liauor may
be worked off by the German soldier with
his hard physical work. his constant living
in the open air. But the American soldier
of business, with his comparatively seden-
tary life and his fierce and constant ner.
vous strain, must find in the use Of liquor
much more injury than the stolid German
private.-Ch:cago Post.

The New Craze.

The word fashion" might be de-
fined as the latest notion for pandering
TO the craze for excitement in the So
ciety set, says London Truth. In this
sense ballooning is coming into fashion.
1t is being launched with all the pres
tige which money and rank can give.
Santos-Dumont, who has at least the
credit of having risked his life a dozen
times, has shown that, for a person
ready to throw away $4,000 or S2O,0OO
a year, some very pleasant jaunts can
be INDUCED in in midair. With a COM
pact little airship, and not much bulk
Ter than a motor car, and not much
more expensive, you can sail forth
from your own piazza, pay a visit to a
friend ten miles distant, and, provided
the weather is calm, you can land
again in Jour own house, having
hreathed some delightful whifs OF
fresh, invigorating air.
