Kansas City mother is a case in point:
Il was a great coffee drinker from

meal without it. But l found at last
it was doing me harm. For years I
had been troubled with dizziness, spots
before my eyes and pain in my heart,
to which was added, two years ago, a
chronic sour stomach. The baby was
born months ago, and almost from
the beginning, it. too, suffered from
sour stomach. She was taking it from
me!
In my distress l consulted a frieed

told me to quit coffee, that coffee did

Concealed Burglar Surrendered When

A burglar who entered Harlem house

the family he had come to rob were in.

his booty, he slipped behind the piano, in
tending to make good his escape as soon
N opportunity offered.
But opportunity did not offer, for it
appeared that the step he had heard WAS
that of one Of the daughters of the house,
who had come down to the parlor for !
couple Of hours practice before breakfast.
When she had finished another daughter
was standing ready to occupy the stool
for another two hours.
Next followed the music lessons OF

one night on the top of Mount

passing over the mountain all the
evening, and the moon was behind
them, and stood in diffused light,
sometimes brighter, sometimes less
bright; but every now and then
the moon would seem to break
through the clouds and bend down
and rush towards the earth as though
it would kiss the very foreheads of

The RantOul.

i he j JOURNAL mas reCelVcu neat
booklet, 1.-THE Rantoul," that con-
tains an entertaining story of the
golden West-the characters in
which were pioneers Of River Falls
in Pierce county. The unique title
page causes the reader to wonder
what is to follow, and interest in
creases as each paragraph and page
is passed. That interest does not
cease even when the discovery is
made that the booklet is merely
prospectus-a sketch of the "Ran-
toul' Mine and the Packard Mining
Co., the latter deriving its name
from the Packard family who have
been controlling owners Of the prop
erty since it was discovered fifteen
years ago.
Myron w. Packard was salesman
in the store of F. J. Burhyte when
the latter first opened his store here
in the Cos. In 1870 Mr.. Packard
removed with his family to the Pa
cific coast, and the greater portion
of the time up to 1890 he was en-
gagged in the general mercantile and
grocery business at Snohomish,
Washington, in partnership with
his second son, Leslie. Clayton, the
eldest, learned the printers trade
when lad, and from 1882 to 1897
was editor and publisher of "The
Eye, at Snohomish. In 1890 he
branched out into prospecting and
mining as a side issue, and was one
of the discoveries and locaters of a
group of valuable quartz claims, in
Guiding the "Rantoul," which were
transferred to the Packard Mining
Company, incorporated by and COM
posed only of members of the family.
In 1892 these claims were bonded
for 100000 by the syndicate of
New York capitalists that founded
the city of Everett at the point
where the Great Northern railroad
reaches the sea. This syndicate
built smelter at Everett and a rail-
road to the Monte Cristo mining
district, but before the first payment
was due on the Packard properties
in the spring of 1893, members OF
the syndicate were among the many
penniless victims of the memorable
panic of that year. The Packards
saved their mining properties from
the wreck and continued such de-
velopment work as their limited
means would permit. refusing sever
al tempting offers to sell as they had
confidence enough in it to believe
that it would be more profitable for
them to operate than to sell. In
a letter accompanying the prospec.
tus, C. H. Packard, the secretary
said:

dollars and many hard days work,

c. P. Cary was reelected to the

Public instruction by a majority of

recognized as an able educator but
there was a prevailing sentiment
that to turn Mr.. Cary down after
serving but one term when the pre-
vailing custom has been to give an
incumbent in a state office two terms
would seem like disapproval of
his administration. That President
Salisbury received SO large vote
under the circumstances is very

Bulletin No. 4, issued by the Wis
consin horticultural society, contains
some interesting information on the
subject of spraying. Insects and
fungous diseases attack plants to
such an extent latterly that they
must be combatted to secure good
fruit. Spraying with the proper
remedies is necessary. In spraying
for insects arsenate of lead, powder
ed hellebore or kerosene emulsion,
is used. BUT kerosene emulsion is
only effective for sucking insects and
must be applied to the insects and
cannot be used as preventive
Powdered hellebore is commonly
applied to destroy currant and cab
bage worms and on fruits and vege-
tables where more poisonous SUBJ
stances cannot be used with safety.
