Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fu1fl1s every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for it's wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug

You can select almost any kind of a
piece of land that you want, either all
heavily timbered or part timber,
and the balance easily cleared, where
a man can clear up on an average of
an acre per day, ready for pillow.
You can find some land with timber
on it and part hay meadow. Water is
easily obtainable either from lakes,
streams or springs. You can procure
a good we'll at a depth of from 10 to
30 feet. If you buy timber land, the
average haul to market is only three
miles. We have good roads to all
our lands, there are school houses ad-
jacent, and several more will be built.
When you buy land of us you will not
be away off in the Wilderness, but on

In the country than the clay loan tim
Der lands Of Polk, Barron and Gates
counties Wisconsin, and when these
lands are cleared up and in shape they
will easily be worth from $50 to 80
per acre. Many Illinois, Wisconsin,
Iowa, Minnesota aud Indiana farmers
who are making money on no better
but higher priced lands are seeking
investment in this section Of the cOun-
try, recognizing the fine quality and
great productiveness of these timber
lands. Chicago and other capitalists
are buying large tracts for stock rails
ing and find it II very paying invest
ment.
1t is a wonderful country; fine
firasscs the abundance of timothy
clover, blue grass, red top, and many
other varieties must be seen to be
fully appreciated. This, in connec-
tion with the easy access to the finest
kind Of water, makes this country es-
pecially adapted for stock raising and
dairy farming.
Adjoining the lands there are many
creameries doing big and prosper
Gus business. This fact speaks for
itself. For winter forage the farmer
can provide an abundance of clover
and timothy hay, wild hay from the
natural meadows, pea straw, oat
straw, root crops, such rs mangles,
turnips, rutabagas, beets, and ensli-
age, from corn and clover, giving
him a large variety Of winter feed
equal in quality to that found any
where in the south or west, and in
quantity it is limited only by the am
bition of the farmer in producing it.
Oats and barley return sure crop of
fine grain, and the yield Of peas is eX-
tremely large and valuable for
dairy food, and, being near to good
cities and villages, no difficulty Is
experienced In procuring bran and
shorts to supplement the grains grown

THE ca USES OF DlHoRcE

Prominent ST. Louis women have
been asked to express their views as to
the causes of divorce, and they seem
to have covered the ground pretty well.
Summed up these are their conclusions
as to the most common causes: Too
many Opponents. Too much indepen-
dence between husband and wife. Friv-
olous attitude Of the young toward mar
riage state. Lack of discretion and
sense of responsibility on part of minis
tiers and others performing ceremonies.
Bad example set by New York's 1900
to rest of country. Lack of loyalty on
part of wives to their husbands. Lack
of respect on the part of the young for
experience and, advice OF parents. Fa-
cility with which divorces can be OBJ
tanned. Frequency of mistake of newly
married couples living with parents of
one or other. Hasty weddings on part
of girls with men of whom they know
little or nothing. Common mistake OF
marriage without mating.
Perhaps there is not enough said here
about the intolerable wickedness of
men. Perhaps the well-situated st.
Louis women haven't seen as much of
it as some of their more suffering sis
ters have

the absurdity of instituting proceed
ings before grand jury to punish for
contempt of court, claimed disobedi-
enee of its order. Courts do not en-
force obedience to their orders through
grand jury.
Yet it was given out from Washing
ton, with very considerable flourish,
that grand jury was to be drawn to
consider whether the packers had yio-
lated the injunction, or had violated
the socalled Sherman Antitrust Act.
grand jury has in fact been drawn
and sUbpoenas are said to be issued for
some four hundred witnesses, from all
over the United States, and every Uni
ted States district attorney in all parts
of the country is said to have received
a special circular, requesting his aid in
obtaining evidence on which to prose
cute the packers.
Well now, what practical evil have
they done? What became of the order
to Commissioner Garfield to investi-
gate the conduct of these beef packers?
In his message to Congress, on its
opening early in December, President
Roosevelt said that this report would
be laid before Congress at an early
date.
Mr.. Garfield had been working on the
matter for much over year, and as is
said, whole corps Of detectives and
experts had and has been and still is
being employed on the job.
Some time since it was announced
~ in
tons, and that section one would soon
be ready, and again that that section
would be laid before Congress March g.
OF course this would be too late for
discussion or action at that Congress.
This section did come March 8. Only
an abstract was given out for publica'
ton. But this abstract shows how
completely void of actual merit is the
whole case of the government. In
substance it is: %.s. III
~ For reasons fully explained-the
same reasons the packers gave at the
time-in the year 1902, when so much

high price of meat, the packers made

stances did business at a loss.

adequate powers Of resistance against
their Entertainments. The Poles had
no legitimate ground, he declared. for
complaining of the separation Of their
countrymen and the Germans, since it
was the Poles who Systematically segre-
gated themselves. Not only in the
East, but in the West, Poles who were
connected with industrial enterprises
would not permit a German to hold any
position of influence in such concerns.
The agitation for united Poland had,
he added, by no means ceased. He end
ed by saying that the government
would persist in its policy of strength
ening the German element in the East
ern districts, and reckoned upon the
support of every true German.

In Switzerland.

In Switzerland one idle day,
As on the grass at noon we lay,
Came a grave peasant child, and stool
Watching the strangers eat their food
And what we offered her she took
In silence, with her quiet look,
And, when we rose to go, content,
Without a word of thanks she went.
Another day in sleet and rain
chose the meadow path again,
And partly turning CHANGED to see
My little guest-friend watching me
With eyes half hidden by her hair,
Blowing me kisses, unaware
That had seen, and still she wore
The same grave aspect as before.
And some recall for hearts delight
A sunrise, some a snowy height,
And a little child who stands
And gravely kisses both her hands.

THE UNPACFFIED POLES.

The Poles are not yet reconciled. In the
Prussian Chamber the other day, the
finance minister, Baron Won Rheinba-
ben, in reply to complaints of certain
Polish deputies, defended the policy of
the government on the ground that the
Polish element in the eastern provinces
of Prussia was yearly growing stronger
in numbers and in economic resources,
while the German population was di'
minishing. The Polish workmen who
migrated to the industrial districts of
the West were in the habit, he said, of
sending their savings home to the east
ern provinces. During the past TWEEN
ty-rine years the Polish cooperative
societies and banks had multiplied
eight-fold, and the amount of the de
posits twenty ive-fold. The advance
of the Polish element was due to the
national energy of the race, and to the
fact that the Germans did not possess

GREAT P0TA7O-GROWER.

Germany is ahead of the United
States in some things that are really
useful. For instance, in potato-grow-
ing. Germany grows more than seven
times as many potatoes as the United
States, and Russia five times as many,
Austria-Hunga nearly three times as
many, and France and the United
Kingdom nearly twice as many. Ger
many is growing nearly as many po'
tatoes as all the rest of Europe. Ac-
cording to the German minister of ag-
ricuIture, the potato crop of that coun-
try last year amounted to S6O,0O0,O00
hundredweights. Next came Russia,
with 51O,OOo,oOO hundredweights, and
then comes France with 240,OO0,000 hun
dredweights, followed by the United
Kingdom with 114,OO0,0OO hundred
weights of potatoes last year, while
the United States comes in at the tail
end with an output of only 100000 900
hundredweights. Germany, according
to the above figures, if Russia is left
out, produces more potatoes than all
,. d.. Ss.s.+-t .. 10 - ,- a.
the rest of Europe combined.
Of course the United States could
grow more potatoes than Germany if
she wanted to. She is busy with other
things that pay better.

Why pneumatic tubes are not in more
general use is one Of the things no fell
low can find out, but they will soon be,
or the Pneumatic Tube trust will find
out why. New Jersey has just added
to her list the General Pneumatic Tran
sit Company, with a capital of $50, O00,-
600, $2,OOO,0O0 in preference shares and
$2S, 100000 in common stock. Informa-
ton is obtainable only indirectly about
the plans and purposes of the new COR
poration. It. however, represents
comprehensive consolidation of the va
rious pneumatic tube interests of New
York, with which Mr.. Howard. Gould
has been particularly identified; of
Philadelphia, where the large tube de-
velopment had its origin; together with
the business in other cities, including
the Batcheller Pneumatic Tube Com
pany, the parent company, which holds
the basic patents for the United States
and foreign countries, together with a
complete working arrangement between
it and the British and Foreign Pneu-
matte Tube Syndicate, of London. This
syndicate acquired last year and now
controls practically all the foreign tube
interests of the world, and is preparing
to put down system of ninety-five
miles, double lines, of twelve-inch tubes,
at a. cost of $15,0O0OO0, and will begin
construction Immediately on the pass
age Of the bills now before Parliament.
The charter includes the customary
powers for large holding corporations,
with several precautionary features,
and is especially drawn with a view to
the construction, operation and holding
of pneumatic tube lines in every part
of the United States Or abroad.
Perhaps by and by even passengers
will be generally shot through pneu-
matte tubes. Stranger things than that
have hannened.
