The Herreshohs Of yacht building

The latest government statistics
state that the United States produced
1S,968,OS9 barrels Of salt during the
year 1903 This is the smallest output
since 1898, and shows that the use
Of salt is decreasing, says Success.
This is probably due TO the recent dis
closures Of eminent scientists that
people eat too much salt, that there Is
sufficient natural salt in the water We
drink. In the air We breathe, and in
the fruits and vegetables We eat to
supply the human system, without
sprinklfng it plentifulIy On every dish.
Many diseases are now traced to the

WorrY L. Rrinos peath.

A publication. devoted to suggestive
therapeutics, telepathy and kindred
interests maintains that thousands Of
people actually think themselves to
death every year BY allowing their
minds TO dwell on morbid subjects. It
would be more accurate to say that
these persons worry themselves to
death Il is not thinking. To think
would be tc fortify the mind against
mOrbidity. There seems to be no
doubt that unreasOning and unreason-
able worry has a distinct and peTni-
cious effect on mind and body. That
it is practicable to overcome this
cause Of trouble is affirmed by special
students OF psychology, but there is
an attraction 70 some minds in morbid
melancholy and a disposition to shun
whatever is cheerful and wholesome

GREAT POWER
When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed, DR.. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism.

Hundreds Of people afflicted with rheu-
matism have spent years under the care
Of excellent physicians IN vain Then
they have settled down TO the conviction
that il Is fastened on them for life. Mrs.
DinsInore was not willing 20 join the
ranks OF the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her.
Here is her story:
% -Four years ago I suffered greatly
with rheumatism in my hands and
knees. After had been sitting a while
my limbs seemed so heavy could hardly
walk on the first attempt. So long as I
kept moving I was all right, but Just as
soon as 1 stopped, something. seemed TO
settle in my knees and make them ache.
Ny hands were so bad I couldn't touch
the palms Of them on fat surface; they
were swollen aud panied so.
Ibid you call in a physician?"
81 dOctOred steadily for over a year ;
then one doctor said: You have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still, it did not kill me nor
the rheumatism
How, then. did you get rid OF it?''
Sat different times I had read in vari.
Gus publications about Dr.. Williams

and finally decided to Try them took
them steadily for four months IN &C
cordsnce with the directions. By that
time was completely cured -

SINGER"
Since then I have had but one slight
return Of my trouble, and a box or two Of
the same pills made me all right again. -
Mrs. f a DinsmOre lives In hearty
enjoyment Of her recovered health at
WobuTn, Mass, entirely freed from the
grave anxieties that rheumatism always
brings. When it appears IN but single
joint it shows that the blood is IN a faulty
state in the whole body. Il may at any
moment break out elsewhere, and one Of
the dangers is that it may break out in
the heart and then the result must Be
fatal. The only security 4 to keep tie

A BusIness proposition.

A plantation like this is business prop
osition It requires large capital and 1t
will probably bring large profits. The work
upon it is thoroughly systematized and
the business will be run like a great
American factory, with due regard to the
cost element. AS soon as Mr.. Gray bought
the farm he put it in charge of an, expert
agriculturist named Schmidt, who had
been employed by him in the United States,
Mr.. Schmidt is a graduate of one of the
chief agricultural colleges of Germany. He
had charge of the emperor's gardens In
Berlin at one time and later studied fruit
culture In France. He aided Mr.. Gray in
picking out the property and then started
to clear It, 1t had all been under cultiva-
tion. but had run down during the war,
and parts of 1t were covered with trees
and underbrush. The trees were all cut
and the timber made into charcoal. Char
coal is the chief fuel of Havana, and Gray
had no trouble in disposing of his 10000
bags which came from the clearing. After
this he began to set out the farm and has
gradually increased the cultivated area un-
til he now has almost 500 acres OF oranges,
grape fruit and pineapples.
