 the Pests with Salt.

A plague of snails, or slugs, as the af- flicted people call them, lately struck Jeffe-sonvile. Ind. in full force, and instances are cited where persons have been compelled to move. Their first appearance was after the flood of Feb ruary, 1884. but they have never been so bad as at present. The pests are not exactly like snail. but resemble them in some respects. They have no shells and are night raiders, says the New York World.
 At no place in the city where the food water failed to reach has one or the slugs been seen, but in the most fashionab ble quarters the pests are numerous. In size they range from one to six inches in length, being from a quarter 10 an inch in diameter. It is not until ten o'clock at night that the snails come out of their hiding p.aces, under houses. and slug hunting parties have become fashionable.
 Armed with lamp and cup of salt, the people hunt for the pest. and when slug is found it's days are numbered, for the smallest particle of salt means death The more salt the quicker the work.
 They leave behind a simy track, that furnishes a clew to their movements. In some places fine carpets have been ruined. the slimy tail eating like acid.
 One of the most peculiar character lstics of the slugs is their ability to get their large bodies through a small space. They flatten out almost as thin as knife blade. allowing them to crawl thrccgh goc1 sized door crack.

the farmers plough-share ever tackled. But there are many whom MT. Hicks has never per- suadad, who view government re- ports and signal station forecasts as the rankest frauds, who pin their faith to the grounding the ory and swear that it ever comes true.
 So let the wish for an early Spring father a confidence along that line. We have had our quota of winter, and snows thrown in to make good measure. Perhaps the coal pile is hidden and then frozen to make matters worse, perhaps the water pipes have "busted" and added to the hardships of the blizzard, but wear a smile, for MT.

REMARKABLE CURE OF
 RHEUMATISM.

Mir. Michael Doran, employed by the American Bridge Co, Youngstown, O., writes: "I want to say for the beneht of my fellowmen that have been suf- fering for a long time with acute Rheumatism in my knees. 1 had tried every kind of remedy, including an expensive course of electrical treat ment, but all of no avail. One day at the suggestion of my druggist I took a bottle of Paracamph to try. The effect of it's use was magical. l got relief at once, and after using three or four bottles I believe I am perma- nently cured. It is certainly a won- derful remedy, and upon my advice a number of friends have tried Para camph, and the verdict is unanimous that it will do all that is claimed for it." Don't suffer from Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sore and Stiff Joints. Use Paracamph. It has cured others and will cure you. Your druggist will sell it to you on a guarantee of satisfaction or money refunded. No cure, no pay. Get a bottle to-day. Trial size 25c; family sizes soc and $1.0O. If you have never tried Paracamph we will send you a trial size free. Write to-day.

Some Success Achieved with Apples, Plums and Cherries in the
 Last Few Years.

A veteran nurSeryman Of Colorado heralds the fact that after years of pa. tient experiment in grating and budding he has secured a seedless apple. Modest- ly the creator has withheld information of his success until he has secured 40 trees of his new variety, says a local in- formant Expert pomologists have ex- amined the new apple, and declare 1t to be very handsome in appearance. De- tails of the methods by which this achievement was attained have not been divulged, but when it is remembered that the million-box crop of navel oranges came from single shipment or six slips the start that has already been attained with 40 productive trees presages an early appearance of the seedles apple in commerce.
 The department of agriculture, as we'll as many grape growers, have been work ing for years on the problem of seed less grape, and, while rumors of success have appeared from time to time during the past decade, the Sultana and Thomp- son seedless varieties have during the past year established their reputation among the viticulturists. The Japanese plum, without stone, is also reported reality, although the seeds have not been obviated Cherries without stones are promised in the immediate future. Seedless tomatoes are alleged to have been perfected by an Indiana woman, be- ing grown from the stock of the tomato. which is replanted when it is at its full height. Watermelons of the same freak nature are also rumored from Georgia. but not much credence is placed in this report, though if tomatoesshave been perfected there is no essential reason why similar success should not be at. tained with the watermelon.

SPRING COMING
 SOON HE SAYS.
Interview With MT. Groundhog by Reporter Who Didn't Care
 for An Out Door Trail.

If Candlemas Day be bright and fair'
 Half of the winters come;
 If Candlemas Day be wet and foul,
 The half of the winters gone at Yule.
 The blizzards of the past month and the promise of the present, have made the people of our Sunny Southland (accent on the South and Sunny in itallcs) very studious observers of all weather traditions, hoping to find assurances of relief from the serverities of the elements.
 Thursday was Groundhog day and Nature tricked him. The weather man foretold a day most cold, but fair, hoping to keep Brer Hog within his dingy, vet warm and comfortable hole, and not allow him to go forth and take fright when Old Sol should transfer the outlines of his unshapely form upon the earth. But MT. Hog is an old timer, with reputation to sus- tain and a duty to mankind to fulfill upon this day, when the whole world pays it's respects. Hog like, he is vain too, and in all these centuries has never once dreamed that the horrible shape which sometimes dogs his steps is one after his own inn age.
 So doubtless with sense of his responsibility, veritable At las with the world upon his shoul- ders, he ventured forth with bristles erect and many a con- scious grunt of satisfaction and pride upon the day set apart from earliest tradition for him, the great seer, Mir. Groundhog.
 What a martyr he must have been, for seeing no shadow upon Thursday, February 2, he con- tinued his roaming and must now be snow bound. At least, his  retreat is cut off, the entrance to his home hidden, foraging IS made as hard by a covering of snow as it would be had some conquering army laid desoiate the land. If it were not too much and too just a reflection upon our climate, some of our yellow jour- nals would start a subscription for a relief expedition and go after MT. Groundhog just like they did Mir. Pearry and other arctic explorers.
 For poor old Brer Groundhog is just as deserving as any of these North-pole chasers. His trips are in pursuance of sclen- tifc knowledge and discovery and he doesn't have half the in- ducements to remain in his little dug-out home that these human explorers do with family, friends and luxury, who practice asceti- cism before a god of science in the land of the midnight sun.
 The forecast of MT. Ground hog tries one's faith these days. To say that winters half over on a morn like this, when we're writing wind-jammer and space-filler like this to keep from bracing the weather outside and ploughing through snow, that's worse than any field of stumps
