Shouting Their Praises.

Friarpoint, Miss, Aug. % Especially
Cured Of Bladder and Kidney Trouble af-
ter 20 years of suffering, Rev. H. H.
Hatch, Of this place, is telling the pub
lie the good news and shouting the praises
of the remedy that cured him-Dodd's
Kidney Pills. Rev. Nh. Hatch says:
81 have been suffering from Bladder
and Kidney Trouble for 26 years and I
have tried everything that people said
would do me good. But nothing did me
any good except Dodd's Kidney Pills.
i haven't felt a pain since | took
and | feel like a new man altogether.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best l ever
had"
All Urinary and Bladder Troubles are
caused by diseased kidneys. The natural
way to cure them is to cure the kidneys.
Dodd's Kidney Pills never fail to cure
diseased kidneys in any stage or place.
They always cure Backache and they are
the only remedy that ever cured Bright's
Disease.

STOCK AND DAIRY NOTES.

The portable hog house is coming into
very general favor, especially in disease
infested districts.
Cottonseed meal should not be fed to
COWS in large quantities, as it injures the
butter if largely fed and may injure the
COW.
Sweet cream butter is coming much
into use in this country. This kind of
butter is not made, as might be supposed
from the name, from cream from sweet
milk, but is generally made of ripened'
cream. 1t is called sweet because it is
not sailed.
A COW must be a very poor mixer
not to respond to good feed and good
care. Good feeding "a greatly increase
the milk-producing powers of the cows
we have, but only to the limit of their
natural capacity. Many of Il cows are
being fed so unscientitically that they
have never been brought up to their full
capacity.-Farmers' Review.

Studied His People,

Lord Curzon would never have
made such a brilliantly successful
viceroy had he not previously pene-
trated behind the vein which conceals
the tortuous workings Of the subtle
Asiatic mind from Europeans. This
insight cannot be acquired from books,
nor does it go hand-in-hand with lin
guistic attainments, however thor
ough. There must be personal resi-
dence and personal touch, not with
one Asiatic nationality alone, but with
several. Lord Curzon Travelled far
and wide in Asia, his mind always on
the alert to catch characteristics of
any people with whom he came into
contact.-London Graphic.

Some wonders of Chemistry.

The man who turned a pair of old
boots into jelly, recently, is not a
magician, but a chemist, and the same
may be said Of the man who convert
ed some old skirts into glucose. An
other chemist says that you may write
a letter to your friend with a pen
made from an old copper coffee pot,
on paper made out Of some of your old
collars. A physician says that from
the sewage Of New York may be made,
every year, as much artificial milk as
would be given by 100, 900 cows. The
waste soapsuds from wooden factories,
which used to pollute rivers. is now
converted into pressed bricks, from
which comes illuminating gas. These
are only a few of the fantastic adap-
tations which the chemists are maxi
ing every day. Agricultural Epit-

OF TUBERCULOSIS.
Public Houses and Their Servants
Said to Be Common Carriers Of
Disease in England.

That the public house is a fruitful
source of infection by the tubercle bacil-
lus is well known, and the returns of the
English registrar general show that pub
lie house servants are specially prone to
the affected by pulmonary tuberculosis.
This, states London Lancet, is not to be
wondered at when we consider that the
floor of the lower class of public house Is
covered with sawdust which in great
Measure is ~impregnated with sputum.
This dust dries and is constantly being
stirred up by the feet of drinkers. Not
only are barmen and barmaids and the
customers of the house thus exposed to
infection, but the unhappy children who
are brought into the house by their
mothers are likewise in danger. The pub
lie house is the poor woman's club where
she can discuss with her neighbors So
cial and domestic incidents; the children
cannot be left at home, and so they sit or
the public house floor during their moth
er's gossip time. Only the other day,
passing a large public house in n of
the main thoroughfares Of st. Luke's
we noticed through the open door of a
public bar several slatternly women
drinking at the counter, while crawling
on the floor of the bar and rubbing their
hands in the sawdust with which it was
strewn were two babies of from IS to "a
months old. That this is not an uncom-
mon occurrence those who have accession
to visit poor and squalid neighborhoods
we'll know, and in the light of such facts
is it to be wondered that the ace is said
to be degenerating or that medical SCI
ence should have such "a hard uphill
fight with disease? Granting that these
children, probably the offspring Of de-
generate beings, become infected with
the bacillus of tubercle, the environment
in which they live will necessarily be q
patent factor in the Development of pull
monary tuberculosis, and not only will
they, themselves suffer, but they will
also involve the public in great expense
for their subsequent treatment and keep.
Recently a law has been passed to pre-
vent children under a certain age from
obtaining i~ntoxicants, and there is legis-
lation for the prevention of cruelty to
children, but as yet there no law to pre-
vent ignorant mothers from leaving
their offsprings to play on the disease
laden floor of a public house. Efforts are
being made to inculcate the precepts of
hygiene at an early age, and many pub
licans, notably those in the borough of
Woolwich, post UP notices requesting
their customers not to spit. But until
splitting on the floor of a tavern is made
a penal offence, as it is at present to spit
in a tramcar, there is but little hope of
amelioration.

RATTLERs MIXED THE cow.
Vermont Farmer Makes a Discovery
Which Surprised Him and His
Neighbors as Well.

Simeon johnson, a farmer of Tyson.
VT, made a discovery recently which
so surprised him that be has spread the
marvellous tale from one end of the
county to the other.
For several months Sim has known
that some one or something has been
stealing milk from his pet Jersey COW.
His good wife told him that the Jersey
had simply dried up and that he was
AFFLICTED with a spell of Imagination"
Sim, however, declared that he knew
that he knew, and sat up nights to dis
cover the thief. But he saw no invaders,
and the more sleep he lost the madden
he got.
The Jersey was n of a herd of 20.
and as her milk was richer than that Of
the others the supply was saved for fam
lily use. She was quartered in a stall
at the end of the COW stable and until
three months ago gave four quarts
morning and night. Then she suddenly
cut down her morning quota to little
or nothing. Sim would have agreed
with his wife il Bess hadn't furnished
the usual amount at night and seemed
ravenously hungry.
1t made no difference whether Sim
watched or not; the milk was always
gone in the morning. although it was
several times established that at mid
night the supply was normal. 1t was
this fact more than anything else that
bothered Sim and gave him creepy and
uncanny sensations when he kept his
vigils by the dim, uncertain light of an
old kerosene lantern. He couldn't fig
ure out why Bess should not give milk
In the morning when there was plenty at
midnight, or why she should be we'll
supplied at night and not at the early
milking.
Il don't believe there is anything
milkin' that cow" said Mrs. Johnson
one day recently, "but if there is it
crawls, and you won't catch it unless
you clean out the bedding so you can
see the stall floor"
Sim allowed there might be some
thing in this, and SO he swept out the
stall and made Bess lie on the planks
instead Of on a fine bed of clean straw.
About nine o'clock he got his lantern
and once more took up his post of vigil.
He had begun to doze when he heard
Bess shift her position, and he held up
the light. He was just in time to see a
long, glistening, sinuous form slip from
under the side of the reclining cow and
glide down a rat-hole in the corner OF
the stall. At the same time he heard q
familiar sound that caused his hair to
stand on end.
"Rattlesnakes." he gurgled, and
grabbed a pitchfork.
Bess jumped to her feet and mooeG
~contentedly as the farmer advanced
cautiously and began a careful investi'
cation. There was but one rat-hole
This led to a pile of rocks under the
barn, and Sim retired to the house. In
the morning, with the help of the hired
man, the rocks were removed, and five
rattlers, each three times its natura
size, were killed. According to the
number of r~attles. all but one wa:

EASY FOR THE DRUGGIST.
A Letter of Recommendation That
wns Taken for n Prescription
for Cough Medicine.

A young man being out Of employment
recently requested a former employer to
give him a letter of recommendation to aid
him in securing a situation. Ths letter was
written and handed t. the applicant, who
was quite unable to read it, as was every
person to whom it was shown. He was
advised to take it to a printing office, where
it could be deciphered, as compositions are
noted for being able to make out the worst
specimens of writing, relates London Int
Bits.
It was handed to compositors in various
Offices, and in turn given up without beng
deciphered.
As a forlorn hope it was taken to a chem
list, who, from his long experience in de-
ciphering prescriptions, had the reputation
of being able to read anything.
The man of drugs took the paper, gazed
at it long and thoughtfully, and then seized
an empty quart bottle and hurried round
the shop, taking some fluids from sundry
bottles, and finally shaking the compound
vigorously. Then, handing it to the owner
of the letter, he remarked to that aston
ished individual:
"Two shillings; and a very good cough
mixture it isl"
