How Farmers iu Minnesota Utilize the Otherwise Waste Land
 ill Crop Growing.

The law of Minnesota calls for Q pub lie highway four rods wide and il has been the general practice 10 leave the full four rods uncultivated. In most cases this space has been overgrown with weeds only that were not even cut down once a year. In this way many of the most obnoxious weeds have flied the adjoining fields and been spread over the adjoining coun- try by sticking to the wagon wheels whenever the roads were wet. This has not been the only trouble-there were thousands Of acres lying idle ey- cry year because oyergrown by weeds

How to Cure a Cold.

Begin by never catching any. By
this means you will derive much pleas
ure from turning down the fussy indi-
viduals who are trotting out their sure
cures for influenza every time you
sneeze or say that you have a chilly
feeling that calls for more internal or
external heat. You will also have all
your wife's relations referring to you
as a stupid pachyderm on whom even
a blizzard fresh from Medicine Hat
would curl it's edge and eventually die
of grief.
When they thus speak lightly of you
it will give you a chance to retaliate
by refusing to attend the family gath
erings, so when your wife and the dog
and the baby go to the assembly in
question you can go over where the
boys r and tell them that the only
way to do when you have a cold is to
side step the hot mustard and pepper
tea stage and only report for duty
when the rock and rye are being served.
You will be greatly admired for your
originality.

DRESSING FOR THE BACK.
4 Lesson From the Dainty and Artfs-
tic FrenchwOman's Book.

The FrenchWoman-for she must be
considered as a class-dress peculiarly
and different from any woman in the
world. She dresses for the back. She
takes care to dress well, considered
from a front point of view. But she
dresses with a special regard for those
who shall see her from the rear.
She takes great pride in her shoulder
blades. Let them get fat, and you are
lost" she says. And SO it is. Lei
your shoulder blades become STOPPING,
your shoulder blades get sharp, and
none of your gowns will fit you. Let
your shoulder blades grow %ungraceful,
and you might as well give UP the
beauty quest"
When it ONE to the display of her
back and neck and arms the French
woman excels. She shrugs with them.
She says yes and no. She expresses sur
prise, joy, disdain and sorrow, all by
the gestures of her back and arms. She
laces her waist so tight that it seems
as though she would break in two. But
her bust is free and her breathing space
is full. She would not think of cramp-
ing her lungs.
"Merci!' exclaimed a Frenchwoman
putting on an American bodice. II can
not breathe. The belt is like a bag. 1t
is so lose that l am uncomfortable,
while 1t is tight around the bust and
around the throat"
III that is n OF the Frenchwom-
ans secrets. She gives her throat plen-
ty OF room, and she gives her bust a
chance to expand. But her waist, on
the other hand, is tightly laced. She
takes care, however, to pull the laces
tight below the ribs and below the lung
space and below the bust line in order
that the beautiful upper figure may
have plenty Of room In which to
breathe and expand and be graceful

WaStefulness of Circulars.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Circular advertisements distributed
by hand are regarded by law in this
city as waste paper. They come under
the ban of a local ordinance simply
because people don't want them, won't
read them, and heedlessly toss them
away to litter up the streets. Circulars
delivered by mail generally meet with
a like fate; they are consigned unread
to the wastebasket or the coal scuttle.
Yet newspaper ad vertisements, which
reach the public through the same
channels, stand upon an altogether
different footing. If well written they
are perused as attentively as the news
which accompanies them into the
homes. 1t is this get-there quality, in
contrast with the hit-or-miss wasteful-
ness of circularizing, which long ago
pushed newspaper advertising ahead
of all other means of communicating
with the public.

U~nfriendly to Roosevelt

A fact, silently noted by the Ameri-
a people during the late session of
Congress, was that many men in Con-
gress, especially in the Senate, were
not friendly to President Roosevelt.
No spirit of antagonism was exhibited
except by Democrats. The u%nfriendli-
ness was too well yelled for that, even
in the treatment accorded TO the Santo
Domingo treaty and the railroad rate
bill in the Senate. But it could not be
disguised, nevertheless.
Next fall a new Congress will assem-
BILE at Washington and the president
will have a new body to deal with. Its
members will come fresh from the
people who elected Theodore Roosevelt
President by unprecedented majorities,
and will know that the President
possesses the confidence and support of
the nation to a degree as great as any
other President since Washington.
Many Congressman will be conscious,
also, that they W their election

of President and Congress for the next
two years should, therefore, be in per-
feet harmony. A President with the
whole people at his back is not to be
fiouted in his recommendations and
DISTRACTED and denied in his patriotic
purposes.
1t is well enough known what infiu-
ences are inimical TO President RoOse-
welt. They centre in Wall Street. The
President who p%rosecutes the meat
barons and the Standard Oil monopoly,
and who threatens the whole pack of
commercial and financial wolves that
prey on the s%ustenance of the people, is
intensely disliked in the lairs of these
wolves. The influences of that dislike
cropped out during the last Congress,
and they will be active in the next
session, but the demonstration is going
to be made that the peoples President
and champion can prevail against all
the combined forces that ~entrenched
great corporate power can oppose him
with.-NeWork advertiser.

ScOVeI, of Camden

Assemblyman Henry S. ScOvel, of
Legislature on important public bills
suggests the attorney for special inter
ests rather than the elected representa-
tive of the people, is a lawyer and son
of James M. Scovel, who was a men,
Der of the State Senate forty years ago.
The legislative career of Scovel has
been consistent throughout. He is
chairman of the Committee ON Munich
pal Corporations this year. A commit
tee chairman has autocratic powerove
bills referred to his committee. Scovel
has in his clutch several bills of great
public importance. One is Senator
Bachelors bill, passed by the Senate,
forbidding the diversion of water out
of the State, and he refuses to report it
to the House. 1t was Scovel who at
tempted this week in conference to
choke off Mr.. Colby's bill for taxing
first-class railroad property and pre-
vent consideration thereof.
Presumably the Republican voters in
Camden County take some interest in
the doings of their legislative repre-
sentatives, especially where their acts
effect important rights and interests
of all the people of the State, including
Camden County. They should know
that Assemblyman Scovel is represent
ing and acting for selfish and greedy
corporations against the welfare of
the State and its people, that he is
suppressing popular measures and do
ing what he can to promote bad legis-
lation. Mr.. Scovel should not be per-
mitted to serve another term in the

Humor ane Philosophy
BY DUNCAN NJ. SMITH
NOT SO PLEASANT.

For a cottage in the country
/ have very often sighed,
With its funny little gables
And it's chimney deep and wide
For the pleasures of the country
Seem seductive, don't you know.
But l rather think the city
After this will hold me, though.
When the snow is softly falling,
Keeping at it day and night.
Never %pausing. never ceasing,
Hiding everything in sight.
For a lonesome week and over
Then the country solitude
Heavily sits on your spirits,
Matching out a gloomy brood.
Cold the wind and cold the silence:
Not a sign of life or light;
When the day in somber sadness
Merges into sullen night,
into every thought n feeling
Does frigidity intrude;
Then you'd give for city's clamor
All you country solitude.
For a cottage in the country
/ have very often sighed,
But l yearn and sigh no longer
For it. L am satisfied.
If l get back to the city,
Soothed and warmed and cheere6
again,
You can bet your life I'll stay there
In the sight and sound of men.

Have You Weak Lungs?
DO You Fear Consumption?

When we take into consideration the
fact that one out of every seven in this
climate die of consumption, is 1t any
wonder that it is feared by the people
of Shepherdstown who have weak lungs
and chronic colds and coughs
A famous London physician has Tor
years urged his patients, when the
slightest tendency to consumption ap-
peared, to take the best cod liver prep
aration they could fad, and physicians
everywhere have recognized that the
Gods liver contains curative values for
coughs, colds, bronchitis, consumption
and all wasting diseases unequalled In
medicine, but, unfortunately, few
could take and derive any benefit from
old-fashioned cod liver oil and emul-
sions on account of the indigestlole
grease which they contain.
The proprietor Of Remnants Phar-
macy saws 1--WE want every person
in Shepherdstown to know the value OF
our new cod liver preparation, Ninol.
1t actually contains in a concentrated
form all Of the strengthening body
building elements Of cod liver oil actu-
ally taken from fresh Gods livers, with
out drop Of oil or grease to upset the
stomach and retard its work.
Therefore, where old-fashioned cod
liver oil or emulsions would do good,
Vinol will do far more good. We guar
antee Vinol will improve the appetite,
strengthen digestion, make rich, red
blood, create strength, cure chronic
coughs and colds and strengthen weak
lungs. If Yinol fails to give satisfac-
ton, we return your money without
question" Remnants Pharmacy.
