The Well Known Specialist, Franklin
Miles, M. D., IL. B., Will Send His
Book and $3.50 Worth of His Per-
sonaI Treatment Free to any Reader

There never was a better opportu-
nifty for persons suffering from dis
eases of the heart, nerves, liver, stom-
ach and kidneys to test, free, a re-
markably successful treatment for
these disorders. DR.. Miles is known
to be leading specialist in these dis
eases and his liberal offer is certainly
worthy of serious consideration by
every afflicted reader. This opportu-
nifty may never occur again.
His system of Personal Treatment
is thoroughly scientific and immensely
superior to other methods. 1t includes
several new remedies carefully select
ed to suit each individual case and is
the final result of twenty-five years of
very extensive research and great sue
cess in treating these diseases.
Each treatment consists of cura-
tive elixir, tonic tablets, eliminating
pills and usually plaster. Extensive
statistics clearly demonstrate that
DR.. Miles Personal Treatment is at
least three times as successful as the
usual treatment of physicians or gen.
eral remedies sold at the stores.

Thousands of young men are now
leaving the farm and taking good pos
itions with large business houses and
corporations in the cities. A few
wears ago it was almost impossible
for young man or woman born and
reared on the farm to secure a posi-
ton in the city unless they had con-
nectiOns either by relation or other
wise who possessed enough influence
to make chance for them to get a
start The great demand for young
men and women in banks, mercantile
establishments, railroads, telegraph
Offices, and other business enterprises
which has grown up during the past
few years has changed conditions all
around. The growth of this demand
has caused the establishment of the
modern business college, designed to
give the farm boy and girl enough in
sight into business to make them val
liable to the business man. In the
modern business college, the young
man or young woman can quickly gain
all the knowledge necessary to hold
a good paying position in the largest
Offices, and this is not the best part
of it; If the business college possesses
reputation for turning out we'll ed
ucated pupils it has influence to get
every one of its graduates permanent
situations in large Offices where they
have every opportunity for advance
ment. Such college is Boyles Bust
ness College, located at 1872 Harvey
Street, Omaha, Neb. Mr. Boyles, pres
ident of the college, is a practical
business man, and is therefore com
petent to teach business. He has a
corps of the very best instructors it
is possible to find, and his college
occupies the most modern and thor
oughly equipped new building devoted
TO college purposes in the west. Mr.
Boyles has published catalogue
which is very valuable to any young
man or woman who contemplates TAX
ing a business course. 1t gives all
the information necessary and is sent
free on request.

The famous case of the two Dromios
and the two Antipholus have been put
in the shade by the concurrence OF
ukenesses in a Partisan wedding
which took place last week. Twin
brothers, NM. Alphonse and Gabriel
Chanteau, we'll known artists, mar
ried twin brides, Nils. Genevieve and
Suzanne Renard, and NM. Gustave
and Maurice Freunzer, the best me1,
were twins, cousins of the bride
grooms.
Each couple is so alike that dis
tinction is only possible by means OF
dress. and this has been necessary
all through the courtship, as DOLL
couples constantly mistook thell
chosen ones. Certainly the group o.
three sets of twins, each set abso'
lutely alike, who were married at Ste
Marie de Batignolles, is not likely &c
be riyaled for some time to come
One can learn Of the Identities with
safety now that four Of the six are
safely married; but there are still
the best men to be disposed OF. Can
Paris produce a pair of twin brides
for these two Dromios?-Black anc

To BE Reckoned With.

The tourist has come to the front as
a factor to be reckoned with in all
good roads movements. The State OF
New, York has voted bond issue OF
City million dollars to make a system
Of highways. When this money has
been spent, New York will swarm
with more automobiles than any other
like area in the world. All over the
country, as highways are improved,
the well-to-do farmers and dwellers IN
small towns will join the ranks Of me
tourists. Fifty thousand gas engines
are used to drive farm machinery IN
the United States. Their owners are
learning the advantages Of machine
power over horse power, and they will
Use this power for travelling in stead
lily increasing numbers. Even with
roads which have survived the dark
ages. the tourist in America is driv-
ing his car on holiday journeys of five
hundred OF q thousand miles, where a
few years ago he would have hesi-
tated to venture q. hundred miles from
home. This is partly because of the
vast ingenuity evolved to make lin
comfortable along the way.-Collier's

One of the brightest essay-Wr1teiS

Of short articles addressed to boys
and girls, intended to advise them
in regard to talking, writing and Nv;
ing in general. We will not mention
his name, but leave you to find 1t OUT
for yourselves. In telling what hooks
were most needed, he makes a Short
list Of the indispensables. At the
head of all he puts the Bible, which
besides it religious worth, has claim
upon every reader to enable him to:
understand all history and literature
In regard to this, the author mem

on the subject as saying that the;
English language Of the last three
centuries has revolved around tna:

OREGON Trees in Austria.

A. F. Miller, of Sellwood, yester-
day made a shipment Of $50 pounds
of the seeds of FIR and spruce trees
to replenish the depleted forests OF
Austria. One thousand pounds were
wanted, but these were all that were
gathered. About 600 sacks OF cones
were picked from young trees, from
which the seeds were carefully taken.
Between 200 and 300 pounds OF seeds
were sifted from the whole bulk that
did not promise, only the very best
being sent across the sea.
Oregon fir and spruce are grow
ing on thousands of acres Of terri
tory in Germany and Austria that had
been denuded Of trees. MI. Miller
has been gathering seeds OF these
trees for several years. He says that
the fir Is the most popular tree and
the seeds are eagerly sought for, the
demand being greater than can be
suuplied.-Portland Oregonian.

she is a regular attendant at the vii

the church to retire at the end OF
service, everybody was surprised to

Crushed Stones For Roads.

In our trip through q portion OF
Butler County, Ohio, few weeks ago
we frequently noticed long piles Of
limestone in irregular sized blocks
along the road side. They were gath
cred on the hill sides and hauled there
by the farmers, to be crushed for re-
pairing the roads. After the thrashing
is finished the traction engines are
hired 20 run the crushers, and these
long piles of stone are soon put in
shape to keep up the fine roads that
are so common throughout the Miami
valley.
There are many sections Of this
State where stone is as abundant as In
that section and where the same plan
for road improvement ought to be
adapted. Professor Blatchley, our
State Geologist, in his next report will
give much attention to the road max
ing materials Of the State. and he
will give his preference for crushed
stone. He says:
my experience has been that. in
the long run, the crushed stone road,
if properly made, is far superior to
the gravel road. The stone road wears
down more evenly, and will outlast
the best Of gravel roads. That is, al
ways, of course. if the stone road is
properly made.
In the first place, the roadbed
should be at. least ten inches deep.
The lower six inches deep. The lower
six inches should be Of the larger
stones, though these should be Of a
size that would pass through two
inch screen. The upper four inches
should be smaller stone, that which
will pass through an inch or an inch
and a half screen. This should be
packed with a steam roller, and with
proper drainage at the side this will
make an excellent road. IT good rock
is available. that is. within hauling
distance, the cost will be about $1,000
a mile."-Indiara Farmer.
