What Is lt2

For several days recently farmers in the vicinity of Albertha, Randolph county have been missing their stock, which strayed into the woods. A number of citizens concluded to search the woods and ascertain the cause of the absence of their stock. They armed themselves with shotguns and started for the forest. About 90 farmers, mounted and accompanied by number of dogs, took part in the search They believed that some wild animal was roaming the woods and was responsible for the disap- pearance of their horses and cattle. They found plenty of evidence in the way of dead and crippled stock to convince chem that some terrible beast was getting in his work. but they were unable to locate the monster. Another hunt has been arranged for | with a larger crowd, and it is believed the hunters will be more successful.

GIANT RAplshEs OF THE EAST
There the Vegetable Crows to an
 Enormous Size.

Radishes in North China and in Japan are as important and ubiqui- tous part of every meal as is bread In America. In both countries many millions of bushels of this vegetable are grown every year, and they are to be had at all seasons. It is thus easy to understand why these parts of the world grow the strangest and biggest radishes known.
 The giants beside the little French Breakfast, our favorite American va riety. are but babies beside the mon. sters they grow under the warm, moist influences of the oriental eli mate.
 These radishes are grown on Amer lean soil from seeds imported by the United States department of agricul- ture from China. They take we'll to the American climate, and probably would have weighed five pounds when full grown.
 When these fellows are grown in China they rapidly form great bril- liant red globe eight to ten inches in diameter and weighing sometimes 20 pounds. Another kind is snow white and grows a foot long. and still an other is a brilliant green on the out side and a beautiful wine red when strange vegetables are exceedingly delicate in flavor and texture when grown under favorable conditions.

Sprayino Demonstrations.

The United States Department of Agriculture is conducting spraying demonstrations and experiments in the orchards of w. H. Gipple and Capt Geo. T. Lincoln, near Benton vile, Ark. This work is intended to show the fruit growers how apple scab. coddling moth, bitter rot and the Philosticta fruit spot may be con- trolled by application of Bordeaux mixture. The work was begun in early spring, certain blocks of trees being sprayed while others were left unsprayed for comparison. The diff ference between the sprayed and un- sprayed trees in both orchards is very striking

GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP.
No Medicine so Beneficial to Brain
 and Nerves.

Lying awake nights makes It hard to keep awake and do things In day time To take "tonics and stimu hnts" under such circumstances is like setting the house on fire to see If you can put 1t out.
 The right kind of food promotes re- freshing sleep at night and wide awake individual during the day.
 A lady changed from her old way of eating. to Grape Nuts, and says:
 For about three years l had been a great sufferer from indigestion. After trying several kinds of medi- cine, the doctor would ask me to drop on potatoes, then meat, and so on, but in few days that craving, gnaw- ing feeling would start up. and would yomit everything l ate and drank.
 When I started on GrapeNuts, vomiting stopped, and the bloating feeling which was so distressing dis appeared entirely.
 My mother was very much both. cred with diarrhea before commenc. Ing the Grape-Nuts, because Her stoiu' ach was so weak she could not digest her food. Since using Grape-Nuts she is we'll, and says she don't think she could live without it.
 Tt is great brain restorer and nerve builder. for can sleep as sound and undisturbed after a supper of Grape-Nuts as in the old days when l could not realize what they meant by a bad stomach" There is no medicine so beneficial 10 nerves and brain as a good nights sleep. such as you can enjoy after eating Grape Nuts"

Alum Baking Powder 10 Wholesome


 Dr. Herman Reinbold, the expert German chemist. in recent official report concerning Baking Powders, declares that pure alum baking DOW. der is better and less injurious than the so-called cream of tartar powders. He says that If the quantity of alum contained in sufficient quantity of baking powder for batch of bread or cakes for an ordinary family. be con. centrated to one mouthful of food, and taken into the stomach Of any one person, no matter how delicate, 1t could do no harm. On the contrary, alum Is wholesome in proper quanti. ties. This is undoubtedly the reason the State of Missouri quickly repealed a law that prohibited the manufacture of the most wholesome of all baking powders. So much for Alum Baking Powders.

An Insane Woman. Deed.

A double, perhaps a 5uadruple, tragedy. occurred recently in Clay county. Mrs. Nellie Polsgrove killed her husband, Frank. and her 4-year-old daughter, then set fire to the house, and their bodies were incinerated, on. ly dust and a few charred bones re maining. In addition she attacked her two older children. Hubbard, a boy, aged 13 and Lexie. a girl of 10. Both vii probably die. She apparent ly used an axe on her victims, judging from the character of the wounds on the two found alive. It is supposed that the woman killed her husband and baby as they lay asleep, and that the other children, awakened by the noise, ran out of the house and were overtaken and struck down where they were found. Sudden homicidal mania is the only explanation of the affair. Mrs. Polsgrove has shown signs of insanity for several years, but was not regarded as dangerous. She has been placed in confinement.
 Something Worth Preserving.
 During a visit to Lonoke, Major s. H. Nowlin secured valuable Con- federate relic from Congressman Joe T. Robinson. It is the original mus ter roll of Company II, Twenty-fourth Arkansas Infantry, known as Col. E. B. Portlock's regiment. The roll con- sists of piece of paper about a yard square, and is yellowed with age. It was taken from the pocket of dead Confederate on the field of battle by a Union soldier, who took it to his home in Maryland, and afterward gave it to Dr. Robinson, father of Con- gressman Robinson. The muster roll was made at St Charles, Arkansas county, and contains S2 names, all of which are as legible as when first written Nearly all the members en- listed from Polk county. The officers were Capt F. B. Portlock, afterward made colonel; First Lieutenant J. H Sullivan, Second Lieutenant R. A. Barber, Third Lieutenant H. NJ. Law renee.

The United States is approaching
a point where either the arrogance of

insistence that will re-establish The
prestige of the country and the coun-

touched off and 300 perch of rock was
dislodged, disclosing an immense cav

a rushing volume of that combustible
that several of the workmen who
rushed forward to see the result of the
blast were overpowered by the fumes
and rendered unconscious. 1t has not
been decided by the railroad company
