THE FROST AND The Fruit.
Secretary Uf State Horticultural
Society Gives Opinion.

Southwest Missouri as well as other
severe frosts during the past week which
has been pretty hard on the fruit trees
which have begun to bloom. 1t isnut
known as to how great the damage has
bjan. l.. y. Goodman, secretary Of the
State horticultural Society says he has
beard from different parts Of the state
aud gives as bis opinion that p percent
of the fruit blooms fell before the frost,
ho further says that Tho trees were
far from being in full blossom or the iuss
would be greater, That does not nee
cessarily mean that the crop will be short
however. You know that there are
about ten times as many blossoms as
fruit. Then the buds we're, Of course,
uniniured. The trouble comes when
the fruit crop is about thirty days ahead
OF time. Last month was the best
March for fruit trees that this section
has known for ID years Everything
has been coming out early. While the
strawberry blossoms suffered, l don't
look for short crop"
when the thermometer gets to the
freezing point, 32 degrees, and the sky
is clear, it means killing FROST" says a
weather bureau man. 1.-The damage
might be greater in this case on account
Of the very fair weather that has pre-
ceded it. The buds came out early and
the sudden change is what DIES the
damage. 1t is just like man going
from Turkish bath out into the cold. "

lawyers and doctors can whistle. and they exercise their liberty; and so ot our bankers, merchants and other bus iness men. Most of them can whistle after a fashion and some of them can even show that they are on the track of a tune which they have heard in Sunday School or elsewhere. Tho butcher, the baker, the busy shoe maker. the printer, the carpenter, the bricklayer and the blacksmith. all alike have this musical habit. And even the hurrying drummers catch the conta- zion when they come to town and with samples in hand go whistling from one store in their line to another. But with them, as with the citizens, It IS not 4dways shrill. ear-splitting blast, but sometimes a low meditative whis- tle,s which helps one to collect his thoughts, steady his nerves and decide what Is best to say or do next.
 Now, we have not exaggerated the fact, but there Is q moral and mean described. It is this: that our town and surrounding territory are prosper ing, the people are cheerful and hope ful, and they give expression to their feelings and their mental frame in the most natural and convenient way For even a substantial man may blow his whistle when he couldn't make bond that he could carry tune in song half way across the first bar.
 Let the whistling go on, but please keep 6 little way off when the full blast Is turned out,

ROYAL TONIC
Beats Anything We Ever Sold as A
 Strength-CreatOr and Body Builder.

Our well-known druggist, Mir. F. G. Fowler, is very enthusiastic over the delicious cod liver oil preparation, which contains no oil. In referring to the matter, said Mir. Fowler, We sell many tonics, and we handle all kinds of remedies that claim to be invigora- tors and strength-creators. We do this because we are druggists, and it is our business to supply the public with what they want.
 Whenever our advice is asked, how ever, in regard to a tonic, body builder ommend Vinol, as we know of nothing that can compare with 1t.
 In vinol modern science has given us all of the tonic, bodybuilding and curative properties of that famous old remedy, cod liver oil. actually taken from fresh cods' flyers, without a drop of the obnoxious and ystem-clogging grease which characterizcs old-fash- toned cod liver oil and emulsions, and which has proved such a drawback
 Vinol is not a patent medicine, as the label on each bottle tells every thing it contains. therefore you know exactly what you are taking.
 In the most natural manner 1t tones up the digestive organs. creates a hearty appetite, makes rich, red blood, and strengthens every organ in the body to do its work as nature in tended.
 Our faith in vinol is so Strong that we gladly offer to refund the money in every case where it fails to give satisfaction. E. c. Fowler. Druggist.

Typical Sea Fighter.

Prince Louis of Battenberg has made an immense hit in New York with his manly bearing and democratic ways. If there is anytaing snobbish about him it cannot be detected in his manner of greeting. It is whole-hearted as If he meant every word of it. and he does: for there is about him the simplicity that attracts sailor men, and one knows that the greeting is genuine The prince looks and talks like a strong man. He likes to talk about athletics boat races, sparring matches and things of that sort. He likes to talk of the sea or guns or en- zines and other things that make timid men shudder and turn pale In short, he is a sailor. who needs only a pair of flaring boots, long sword and romantic back ground to be the living example of a good old sea fighter.

HOOKING nAckwAnp.

We have been looking over a fac- simile copy of The Siiver Standard" l" published by Rogers Brothers. and dated November. 1s47. It has lead ing editorial on the results of the Mex ican war and the probable demands of the United States for indemnity |. There are several other allusions to matters which were then asitatfng the country and which had momentous re- suits.
 But 1t is among the shorter news Items that we find most interest. For example. one states that "a, few days since a train of cars went from Pough- kecpsie to New York, a distance of sew cnty-two miles, ins'two hours and one minutes How Is that Tor speed in this day Of flyers? Yet q speed of thirty-one miles an hour was certainly splitting the wind in that early period. and we've no doubt that this was a record run. sr
 Then we are told of a new hotel just completed in New York. and which the paper says, "is the most splendid on the American continent" Then Ii goes into details. showing that the land. the building and all the fur nishings and fittings amounted to $.50.000. Less than ono million dol lars for the finest hotel on the con- finent and that in the heart of New York. It would be looked on as rather small affair now.
 But there is one industrial item that will be wonder to readers of the present day who have not kept them serves posted on the Improvements in machinery and machine work. and we copy the entire item as 1t appears in The Standard. It says: Sewing machines threaten to effect complete revolution in thread and needle opera tions. No less than five hundred are now in operation in the Atlantic States. and they are ordered from the manufacturers faster than they can be supplied" Most of the machines then in use would naturally be found in the older and more populous Atlantic States. and 1t is doubtful if there were at that time thousand such machines on the American continent. We have no means Of knowing the number of them now in use, but there are mill lions of them.
 There are other items of interest. but the references we have made will give an idea of changes and advances made during the nearly sixty years which have elapsed since this publica- tiou

PARTIAL PARALYSIS
SEVERE CASE YIELDS TO DIR. WILL
 LIAMS' PINK FILLS.
Patients Face Was So Drawn He Could
 Hardly Eat or See.

Nervous people should keep a careful watch upon themselves for the symp- tom generally described as nervousness IS often the first sign of serious illness. The person who gives Dr. Williams Pink Pills a trial for nervousness is not only taking the best possible treat nlent but is also insuring against se- were nervous disorders, such as partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia, which these pills have cured when ordinary treatment failed.
 T had been feeling badly for long time." said Mir. Harry Bemis of Truth vtlle, Washington County, N. Y "and in the early part of September, 1902, I was compelled to quit work on account of my i'll health. My trouble was at nrst extreme nervousness, then my sight became affected and consulted an oculfst who said I was suffering from paralysis. He treated me for some time. but got no beneft. tried another doctor and again failed to ob- tain any relief. My nervousness in- creased. Slight noises would almost make me wild. My mouth was drawn so could scarcely eat and one eye was affected so I could hardly see. I had very little use of my limbs, in fact I was almost a complete wreck.
 T am all right now and am at work again. That Is because followed my wife's advice and took pr. Williams Pink Pills. She had used the remedy herself with the most gratifying results and she persuaded me to try them when it appeared that the doctors were un- able to help me. It N
 They acted very surely in my case,f for my face came back into shape, and much sooner than I expected was. en- tirely well. They simply worked won- ders for me, as every one in this place knows. and am glad to help others by telling the story"
 The reason why Dr. Williams Pink Pills effect such remarkable cures is because they purify and enrich the blood, which nourishes the nerves and gives strength to every organ of the body. They have cured obstinate leases of neuralgia, nervous prostration, sci- atica. insomnia, as well as of partial paralysis. They are also the best tonic in all cases of weakness, as the energy required for the daily work of life all comes from the blood. All druggists sell them.

Can the Federal government actual sy punish men who violate its laws pn large scale? We hear much about punishing the trusts and other great corporations, but will it be done? Recently. after several years of effort and the expenditure of many thous- Rnds of dollars. two Nebraska men were brought to trial in a Federal court for the crime of virtually steal-- ing 2i2.0oe acres of public land. The result was a verdict fining them $500, and sentencing them to remain six hours in the custody of the marshal.
 Now. was not that perfectly ridicu- tous travesty? If the men had stolen g few postage stamps. or a govern nnent money order for a dollar, they would likely have been sent to prison for their crime. As 1t is. the sale of E few acres of their stolen land would pay the fine, provided they can hold the land. but If they do not the fine and sentence Is absurd. The land il- legally taken was government prop erty. The men obtained it by fraud which was little less creditable than robbing a bank, yet the Federal au- thorities are absolutely powerless to punish them. If that Is the kind of sustice meted out the big criminals Mhy not let the little ones go free?
