32.2s2,650 Kilograms exported. Some
of the choicest Of French beef goes to
England, where the fillets and other
prime cuts are in demand for clubs,
hotels, and the best class of restau-
rants. During the same year there
were killed 2S2,50s hogs, which yield
ed 27,657,35 Kilograms (5S,0S0, 435

which furnished 7,3O5,650 Kilograms

Cured recently at Huningue, on the
SWISS German frontier, near Bale,
where a wealthy retired merchant
named Felix was arrested ON a
charge of carrying off girl, but was
liberated as soon as the facts of the
case became known to the police
It appears that the old mans
nephew, shy young man of 20 years,
fell in love with girl on a visit to
Neuchatel, and his sentiments were
reciprocated by the girl The girls
parents, however, refused to allow
their daughter to marry on the ground
that she was too young.
When the lovesick young man
told his troubles to his uncle, the old
man upbraided him for his lack of
enterprise and promised to bring the
girl to Huningue within 4S hours
Hiring powerful motor car, and TAX
ing couple of men with him. Felix
left for Neuchatel, abducted the girl
from near her home, and returned
within the allotted time The mar
riage took place next day.
The girls parents have forgiven the
daughter. who was not in the plot.

Airs. III. Wriohf

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there Is a

arrangement of the female organism
and which, while it causes disturb.
ance similar to ordinary indigestion.
cannot be relieved without medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic
but has a peculiar tonic effect on the fe.
male organism.
As proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every-
thing else had failed. She writes:
" For two years suffered with dyspensia
which so degenerated the entire system that
was unable to attend to my daily duties. /
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that ate
tasted good and it caused disturbance in nv
stomach. l tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed to help me- l was adj
vised to give Lydia e. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound trial, and was happily surprised
to find that it acted like fine tonic and in a
fewdays l began to enjoy and properly digest
my food. My recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks was well woman / have rec
commended 1t to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement or has such a record
of cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
e. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound.

OLDBO0K IS VALUABLE
SACRED BURMESE WORK TAKEN
FROM EASTERN TEMPLE.
Given to Minnesota Man by Enqlish
Army Officer-Said to Be Over
5000 Years Old and Worth
Small Fortune.

Fergus Falls, Minn.-In the posses.
sion of E. j. Oxley, of this city, is a
Burmese book of exceeding value. 1t
is about Is inches in length, and the
leaves are ~ inches in width and
much thicker than ordinary paper.
Fastened together they make vol.
ume about five inches thick. The
leaves are sections of palm leaf, paper
being unknown until centuries after
this particlar book was made, and the
characters are delicately cut into the
leaves, SO that there is no such thing
as fading.
The book was given Mr.. Oxley by
Sergt. Fred Stokes, of the English
army, who took it from Burmese
temple in the English-Burman war of
rs years ago. Mr.. Oxley, who is him.
self an Englishman, had occasion to
visit his native land, and Sergt.
Stokes made him a present of the
book as he was returning to Amer
lea.
The sergeant had taken a small
Burmese god from the same temple,
and the temple and village were then
burned by the soldiers. Neither he
nor Mr.. Oxley regarded the book as
anything more than ordinary curios-
ity at the time the present was made.
The first intimation that Mr.. OK
ley had as to its real value was given
him by Burmese lecturer to whom
he showed it few months ago. The
man, on seeing 1t, bluntly told the
owner that he never came by any
such book as that honestly; that it
could not be held as private property
in Burmah, and that it was kept sa
cred and never handled except by the
higher orders of the priesthood. He
stated that it had taken at least one
man lifetime to carve the curious
characters, and that the book was at
least 5000 years old. He offered Mr..
Oxley 5000 for it, but he had already
told him too much about it and the
offer was promptly declined. He
then offered $40, and this offer was
also declined.
The lecturer, before leaving town.
told some friends that the book
would sell for several thousand dol
lars If it were offered to the right
person. Local ministers and others
have had some of the leaves photo
graphed and are sending them to the
Smithsonian Institution at Washing
ton and to eastern scholars with a
view of having them translated.
The lecturer, who wished to pur-
chase the book, stated that il was
the only one of its kind in America,
and probably the only copy of that
particular section of what may be
termed the Burmese Scriptures, in
existence.

First Flower Of sprlna.

In the northern United States the
snowdrop is the only garden flower
that we can count on year after year
as the earliest sign of spring. Its
pendulous white blossoms, with
"heart-shaped seal of green" sung by
Rossetti often appear before the last
snow has gone.
Luckily, even city families need not
be without snowdrops, for they have
been known to thrive in narrow pas
sageways between all houses. Most
dubious plants like the baking hot sun
of midsummer in order to ripen their
bulbs, but the snowdrop thrives best
in partial shade.
1t blooms earlier IL 1t has chance
at the March sun. but is one of the
very few that will flower regularly,
though less freely, in dense shade and
with a northern exposure.-Country

SMYRNA FOX CLUBS FOURDAYS HUNT

Enjoy Fine Gross Country Chase.

The Smyrna Fox Club, John G Biz

successful and enthusiastic hunts the
past week ever held by the club. The
sport lasted four days. Early Tuesday
morning about five o'clock the club
reIIdezy oused in the yard of the Della
ware House. Some were mounted and
others went in carriages. A pack of
about twenty hounds stirred up a
lively scene and at the sound of the
bugle were off in the still morning air
for cross country chase. The hunt
was in the direction of Ollie Hills
farm at Blackbird Landing. The
weather was ideal aud the sport exhil-
iarsting. They succeeded during the
day in jumping one fox which the
hounds ''hOled" after long chase and
getting five little foxes which they
brought home with them to liberate at
some future time. Wednesday the
Club got off bright and early for Ty-
| bouts Woods near Blackbi Station.
Fine sport was afforded. Two foxes
were run and both of them "holed. -
1t was plain to be seen there was fine
sport at Tybout's so the next day the
club went back again and jumped foul
foxes for cross country hunt. Two
of them were "holed" and after con
tinuing the chase on the other two fol
several hours they broke the dogs of
and returned home. Friday morning
they went to Tybouts again but only
succeeded in jumping one fox whicl
they holed after an exciting chase
The party then went over to OllI
Hills again and succeeded in gettin;
up another fox which they chased un
til everybody was tired and the dog
were broken off. Each days hunt wa
