A DOUBLE RESURRECTION.
Each of the Generals Thought That

what he could do for him. =
Il am dying, said Barlow. Just reach
into my coat pocket. draw out the letter
you find there, and read it To me. 1t is

Gordon read the letter.
"Now, general" said Barlow, "pleasc

He sent for Mrs. Barlow, giving hei

But Barlow did not die. His wife cam,

The presence of the grave in the pass

who could give any light on the question

the war no effort was made to remove
the dead soldier, and the authorities Of

The part played by mechanical con-
trivances in the achievement of mod
ern agricultural successes is one of the
most instructive features of the sub
ject. The inventors genius has so re-
duced the actual labor of cultivating
field and garden that about every oper-
alton required in tilling the soil can be
produced by the turn of wheel or the
pull of a lever. 1t is possible nowadays
to pillow, harrow and seed a hundred
acre field without walking at all, and
one man with his team can accomplish
as much in a day as could be done in
former times with a dozen men armed
with hand tools.
The ''husking bee'' has gone like "the
man with the hoe" and even 1.-THE mer-
ry haymaker'' is becoming only a mem
Dry. The old horse rake that gathered
the hay into long swaths is being re-
placed by marvellous apparatus that
gathers up the Swath as it moves along
and raises it to the top of the wagon,
where the man with the fork adjusts
the load The hay is thus loaded and
made ready to be hauled to market.
Much of the improvement made by
modern farmers is due to the influence
of the agricultural colleges. Their
graduates have demonstrated beyond
cavil that the scientific cultivator is
not to be ridiculed as an impractical
BILE theorist. The thousands of young
men who have been taught in these in
situations how to till the soil in a man
ner which will do no violence to Mother
Nature have done more to further
American agricultural progress than
any other agency. They have learned
for the first time to appreciate the fact
that true economy consists in applying
modern and rational ideas in caring
for tree, shrub and root. Much of the
cherished wisdom of the illiterate hus-
bandman has been found fallacious, and
the new and practical ways of doing
are rapidly superseding the empirical
methods of old time agriculture. The
time has actually arrived when the
successful following of this ancient and
most honorable avocation demands as
much earnestness and mental exercise
as do most other pursuits.
These schools and their efficient CO.
adjutors, the government experiment
stations, have revolutionized the bust
ness of farming. They have accom-
olished far more than that-they have
made necessary a new definition for the
calling. Nor will it be the first time
that the word has been furnished with
a new signifcation. Originally when
the language was simpler and more
convincing, farmer was one who col
lected revenues. primarily from the

A CLEVER DETECTIVE.

For long while the parcels and box
es carried in the guards vans of GER
tain trains from Euston station, Lon
don, were tempered with. The detec-
tives watched closely, but had no clew.
When the train reached its journeys
end the cords and locks of the package
were all right, but some of the con-
tents were missing. At last suspicion
fell upon the guard, and it was put to
the test A smart detective contrivsd
a plan and duly secreted himself in the
van. The guard of the train was a
crafty fellow. In addition to the nag
and lantern which a guard is supposed
to carry, he had a number of skeleton
keys, with which he adroitly opened
bags and packages as the train flew
northward. On this particular night he
was tempted to look into large wood
en- package which wore the appear
ance of containing good things. BY the
aid of a screw driver and hammer he
raised the lid of the crate and forced IL
half open. What was his amazement
when he found 1t contained the detec-
tive, who sprang out and arrested him
on the spot!

the conflict shall be continued indefi-
nitely until "the Japanese are driven
into the sea- would be the most nau-
seous braggadocio if the men who con-
troll the money market should decline to
cooperate.
According to a French financial au-
thority of repute, the war was costing
Russia at the beginning of July from
$4,000, 600 to $40.000.oo0 month. Since
that date expenses have been increas-
ing. If the force is doubled. as the car
proposes, the expenditure will be dou-
bled also. At the breaking out of hos
tilities Russia found herself short of
cash and borrowed $16o.0oo.00o from
France Today it is no secret that she
is hard pressed for money to meet war
expenses and she is feeling the market
for another loan. Germany has shown
some willingness to accommodate her,
but the rate of interest will be Sug-
gestive of mine uncle"
1t is undoubtedly true that Russia's
natural resources are practically mex
haustible. but they are of little use for
immediate realization. 1t takes album

for the world to share. There is not
the slightest evidence that she has ex-
hausted her resources or even that she
is perilously near the end of them. Her
reserve of 3o0, 900 men is practically in
tact, and she could land them in Man
churia long before the Russian levies
could be brought together. 1t must not
be thought, however, that this reserve
marks the limit of Japan's ability to put
men into the field. There is no doubt
whatever that 100000 men could be
sent to the front without depriving
home industries of their necessary sup
port. In the American civil war one
man out of every ten became a volun-
teer or was conscripted. II that ratio
should be adopted in Japan it would
swell the army to the number of at
least $500, 900 available men.

time local rebellions are to be avoided
at any cost.
Granting that the car may succeed
in recruiting 100000 more men and
landing them in Manchuria, even adj
hitting that the provinces might be so
pacified that their garrisons could be
reduced to a mere handful, the problem
of maintaining the augmented force
would still remain unsolved. With 3oo,-
600 men and adequate subsistence for
them General Kuropatkin would be in
finitely better off than with 500, 600
men and rations for only half that
number. The subsistence dificulty is
one which no amount of calculation is
likely to make appear less formidable.
Money sufficient could undoubtedly be
found to purchase the supplies in the
European markets, but that would be
as nothing compared with the trans
portation puzzle. With the enemy in
possession of the east Asian Httoral,
the overland journey would be the only
remaining alternative, and the unsat-
isfactory nature of that route has been
demonstrated. At the time when sup

HOW TO EAT,

How shall one determine how much
food to eat? Let your sensations de-
eide. 1t must be kept in mind that the
entire function Of digestion and assim-
ilation is carried on without conscious
supervision OF concurrence. It should
be entirely unfelt and unknown, ex-
MES and follows its normal accomplish
ment.
Safety is bad 1t implies a sensation
of fullness in the region Of the stomach.
and that means that too much food has
been taken. The exact correspondence
in a healthy animal between the appe-
tite and the amount of food required 10
extraordinary. AS a rule, the meal, un-
less eaten very slowly, should cease be-
fore the appetite is entirely satisfied,
because a little time is required for the
outlying organs and tissues to feel the
effects of the food that has been in
gested. If too little has been taken IL
is easy enough to make it up at the
next meal, and the appetite will be only
the better and the food more grateful.
No one was ever sorry for having
involuntarily eaten too little, while mill
lions every day repent having eaten too
much. 1t has been said that the great
lesson homeopathy taught the world
was this: That whereas physicians have
been in the habit of giving the patient
the largest dose he can stand, they
have been led to see that their purpose
was better subserved by giving him
the smallest dose that would produce
the desired effect. And SO it is with
fond.
