SAVED CHILD'S LIFE.
Remarkable Cure of Dropsy by Dodd's
Kidney Pills.

Sedgwick, Ark, July 1.-THE case
of w. S. Taylor's little son is looked
upon by those interested in medical
matters as one of the most wonderful
on record. In this connection his
father makes the following statement:
Last September, my little boy had
Dropsy; his feet and limbs were
swollen to such an extent that he
could not walk nor put his shoes on.
The treatment that the doctors were
giving him seemed to do him no good
and two or three people said his days
were short, even the doctors, two OF
the best in the country told me he
would not get better. 1 stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd' 9
Kidney Pills. 1 gave him three Pills
a day, one morning, noon and night
for eight days; at the end of the
eighth day the swelling was all gone,
but to give the medicine justice, l
gave him eleven more Pills. l used
thirty-fve Pills in all and he was en-
tirely cured. consider your medicine
saved my child's life. When the thir-
ty-five Pills were given him, he could
run, dance and sing. whereas before
he was an invalid in his mothers arms

RaxarIans Are Progressive.

The Bavarian Trade Museum has
adopted novel idea to interest as
well as to instruct the public and
purchasers of toys by sending out
travelling lecturers, who show the
practical workings of the toys by
means of models in actual operation.
Some of the more interesting toys
thus demonstrated include: A con-
plete railroad train, which can be run
backward and ford, slow or fast, and
stopped at will.

Provided the floor is smooth and
clean, staining is preferable to paint
ing, as the stain which soaks into the
wood wears well and is very attract
i've. A very satisfactory staining ma
teria1 is a weak solution of perman-
ganate of potash. This when first ap-
piled produces a wine color, but on
exposure to the air quickly oxidizes,
becoming a rich oak shade. In pre-
pairing the stain the permanganate of
potash should be dissolved in water
and diluted, and a little of it. applied
with a brush to a piece of smooth
board of the same material as the
floor; this should be allowed to stand
exposed to the air for half an hour;
if the color is too dark the stain must
be further diluted with water until the
desired shade is produced. The floor
should be made very clean and dry,
soiled places being sandpapered. One
application of the stain should be
given, and when thoroughly dry, one
or two coats of good varnish should
be given. This will protect the stain
leaving a beautiful surface in which
the natural grain of the wood may be
seen.

of stick. about the size of a match,
stick it into the egg and churn the
egg with it, constantly dipping the
stick into a little red pepper and mus
tard, until the egg is thoroughly in
pregnated with the pepper and mus
tard, then put it in the nest where the
hen usually lays, with the open side
up, and let the hen get it as soon as
she wants She will never trouble

A Dinner of Souls,

The latest fad in Paris is dinners
Of the souls. Each guest impersonates
some celebrity not only in costume.
but by speech and manner, by accent
and by repeating celebrated quota

This sort of entertainment can only
be appreciated by people of intellec-

study and a general knowledge to
make it a success.

No, do not cut the small growth of
asparagus, but let it grow until seed
is formed; then cut and allow to lie
on bed over winter. 1t would be bet
ter for the bed if you did not cut next
year; but as one is always anxious for
product, you could cut a few of the
stronger sprouts, leaving the rest. 1t
is important that you cut down the
growths before the seed has matured,
because if the ripe seed falls on the
ground the bed will become full of
seedlings, which will be much harder
to destroy than other weeds. Cover
the bed with a good coating of we'll
rotted manure each fall and fork it
over very carefully early in the
spring. After the bed is in full bear
ing, a top dressing of nitrate of soda
each spring would be beneficial, using
about $50 pounds per acre.

Soouy Potatoes.


w. E. CT can grow excellent po-
tatoes, but when stood in a cool cellar
all winter they become very wet and
soggy. What is the cause and rem
edy?
Should Judge that your soil has
much to do with the watery condition
of your potatoes, and should advise
that you underdrain your land. The
first cost of doing this is considerable,
but the results obtained in better and
larger crops, added to the fact that
the land is in condition to be worked
earlier and later than land not drain
ed, will, in a very short time, pay
all cost of draining. A slightly higher
storing temperature might be better;
but the soil has much to do with the
moisture in the tubers.
