A WARNING TO MOTHERS.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot wealth
er of the summer months to guard
against bowel trouble. AS a rule it
is only necessary to give the child a
dose of castor oil to correct any dis
order of the bowels. Do not use any
substitute, but give the old-fashioned
castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as
rancid oil nauseates and has tend
ency to grippe. If this does not check
the bowels give Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and
then dose of castor oil, and the dis
ease may be checked in it's incipiency
and and all danger avoided. The
castor oil and this remedy should he
procured at once and kept for in
stant use as soon as the first indica-
ton of any bowel trouble appears.
This is the most successful treatment
known and may be relied upon with
IMPLICIT confidence even in cases of
cholera infantum. For sale by all
druggists.

devoted exclusively to the manufacture
of wagons and wooden implements.
The force of workmen was increased,

14-year-old boy William Strobe, who
afterward became part owner in the

HAS MULE-FOOTED HOGS.
Kansas Senator Has Drove of Porkers
with Remarkable Under
pinning.

Not many people know that prob
ably the only herd of ''mule-footed"
hogs of any size is located in Kansas
and is the property of a state senator.
The herd is in Labette county, near
Labette, and belongs to Senator w. j..
Conner, reports the Topeka Capital.
Senator Conner has been breeding
these hogs for number of years, and
says they will live and prosper where
an ordinary hog will starve to death.
The name 'mule-foot" comes from the
fact that the hoof is not split like that
of an ordinary hog. 1t does not great
ly resemble the hoof of mule, except
that 1t is round.
These hogs, some 60 years ago." says
Senator Connor, were originally
brought here from the South Sea is
lands and turned loose in the Kimish
and Little River mountains, in the
Choctaw Nation, for the use of the In
dams, and have lived and prospered
there up to the present time. They are
now very nearly extinct. Many of these
hogs are sold to museums, others are
shipped to Kansas City market, and
eight or ten are butchered each year
for home consumption on the farm"

oNE-FAMILY SETTLEMENT.
Households in India Become Fornid-
able by Accretion Of
Relations.

mo one Is a separate unit In India"
says Edmund Russell, in Everybody's
Magazine. THE sons never leave the
parental rooftree. All marry-mar-
riage with them is as birth and death,
ineyitable-and their children are added
to the family. There are always wild
owed adnts, other grandparents-no
relative is ever left to shift for himself
In India-so that households of $50 are
not uncommon. Add almost as many
servants, and we have some idea Of the
occupation and cares of the mistress of
such a home. The servants quarters
surround the yardor compound, and the
ladies' of the household care for them
as did the stately danes of old Virginia
in the plantation life before the war.
The great zenana of courtyards stretch
back to fruit and vegetable gardens,
and there are tanks or artificial ponds
where ladies and children battle in Sc
clusion. Blossoming trees rise above
hedges that jealously guard these sa-
cred retreats, where family may sport
in private with freedom unknown to
us, and suited to their shy, poetic, play
full natures, that only unfold when with
each other; caring as little to see the
world outside as to be seen by it."

MATCHED IN POLAR WINTER
Bird of the Antarctic Region Which
Has But Recently Become
Known.

Dr. e. F. Wilson's lecture at the
Royal Institution on the emperor PEN
gum was illustrated by skins, eggs and
a number of lantern pictures of the
birds and their rookeries, reports the
London Telegraph of recent date.
This fine species, larger than tho
king penguin, which has been exhib-
tied in the Geological gardens, was
discovered duri2g Capt. Cooks second
expedition, but until the return re-
Gently of the Antarcic expedition
nothing was known of it's life history
or habits. The curious thing is that
the birds are Matched in the depth of
the Polar winter.
A single egg is laid, which is brood
ed between the birds feet and the soft
plumage of the body The chick is
clothed in grayish white down, which
Is moulted after five months, and
when about year and half old the
immature plumage Is exchanged for
that of the adult. One young bird was
taken on board the Discovery and kept
alive for five months.

ordinates. For Mayor Weaver, they
allege, is hand in glove with the polit-
ical machine, and no one has had rea-
son to doubt his loyalty to the men
who allowed him to step from the dis
trict attorneys Office to the mayors
chair.
AS district attorney he was a dis
tinct success. He rose to that position
by dint of the most strenuous personal
efforts. He was born in England in
1862, was educated partly in that coun-
try and partly in Philadelphia, to
which city his parents moved when he
was eight years old. He left school
when he was 13 years old to become
an errand boy in law office. Before
being admitted to the bar John Weaver
was law stenographer and recorder of
the Law academy, of which he subse-
quently became successfully treasurer,
vice president and president He has
a large private practice to which he
devotes such time as he can spare
from his duties at the city hall. He is
what is known as a domestic" man,
being devoted to his home, is fond of
yachting and is well-known to all the
old salts of Barnegat
AS a man, Mayor Weaver is inter-
esting. His face beams with good ma
ture when greeting callers. He smiles
a good deal, and gives one the impress
sion of a certain easy frankness that
has led to the downfall of more than
| one witness in court. The mayor has
| nothing of dogmatic manner. Neither
has he satire and it would be difficult
| to imagine him without good manners.
His is not the face of scholar nor
an aesthetic. nor a subtle humorist
He has a good business head, with a
square jaw, a combative chin and q
pair of shrewd eyes. His mouth and
| jaw give the distinct impression of a
man who is not in the least afraid of
his own opinion. but the kindly good
nature of his face gives an impression
of an aptness to be too generous. He
apparently could be influenced a good
deal by friendship,
To the men whom he has placed in
positions of responsibility around him
Mayor Weaver has been unswervingly
kind. In the face of a storm of criti-
cism, backed by the prayers of the
clergy, the mayor has steadfastly re-
4 fused to deprive the director of public
safety of his Office. To the clergy
mems letter on this subject Mr.. Weav-
err replied: "You have made no
charges. shall not do as you re-
quest" 1nreats of impeachment and
cries of "Resign," have no effect upon
the mayor. From his sanctum at the
city hall he serenely defies ministers,
praying laymen and the Law and Or
der society. His present attitude is
embodied in second neatly framed
motto that hangs above his desk, 1t
reads: -
Don't make explanations. Your enemies
won't believe them. Your friends don't
need to.
