Plants Will Work Greater Good Than
 Steam

"The forces of steam and electricity were playthngs for ages and later fur nished interesting laboratory experi- ments. Now they have been applied marvelousy for the benefit of men,"
 "The forces embodied in plant life never until very lately been understood. These forces are destined to produce greater changes for the benefit of man kind than have as yet been produced by steam and electricity"
 This remarkable statement came from the lips of Luther Burbank, the creator of so many new plants, flowers and fruits as the climax of interview.
 MT. Burbank spoke with so much earnestness that the effect was thrilling. The talk had been about the possibili ties of his work It is conceded that Mir. Bur banks wonderful work has already revolutionized mans attitude toward plant. The great scientists admit 1t is not only the men great and learned in the science and thought of the time that are interested in Luther Burbank's s work. Kings and rulers of the world are writ ing to him now asking him questions and in some instances almost imploring him to interest himself in the creation or upbulding of some form of plant of their domains.
 There have come to MT. Burbank's home in Santa Rosa personal letters from kings and rulers of the old world. A letter arrived just recently from a king asking Mir. Burbank some questions concerning branches of his work. Mir. Burbank will not permit the letter to be made public or the identity of the sen der to be learned. He regrets as per sonal matter the import of the royal writings.
 There is pathetic side to some of the correspondence MT. Burbank receives. In reply to questions he said he had re- ceiyed letters of missionaries in faroff Africa and other countries, imploring him to send them Eff only seed," of his spineless cactus, so that it may grow and save these people from starvation.
 Burbank's spineless cactus has stirred the world to it's uttermost parts, but to all these hundreds of letters MT. Bur- bank has received about the cactus he has replied that not one seed O the plant has left his hands as yet. The plant must be fully perfect before his task is completed
 "You may say." said he, "that not single thornless cactus plant has been sent out, despite the fact that reports have come to hand from different places that people have my thornless cactus"
 In the meantime Mir. Burbank is go- ing on with his great variety of experi- ments with cactus, trees, fruit and all other growing things that might be of value to humanity.-Examiner. ! Cuban DiarrhOea

Cuban DiarrhOea

U. $. soldiers who served in Cuba during the Spanish war know what this disease is, and that ordinary remedies have little more effect than so much water. Cuban diarrhoea is almost as severe and dangerous as a mild attack of cholera. There is one remedy, how ever, that can always be depended upon as will be seen by the following certificate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of Houston, Texas: "I hereby certify that Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband of severe attack of Cuban diarrhoea which he brought home from Cuba. We had several doctors but they did him no good. One bottle of this remedy cured him, as our neighbors will testify. ] thank God for so valuable medicine" For sale by all dealers.
