RHEUMATISM STAYS CURED
Mrs. Gotta, Confined to Bed and in
Constant Pain, Cured ~ DR..
Williams Pink Pills.

Rheumatism can be inherited and that
fact proves it to be disease of the blood.
1t is necessary, therefore, to treat 1t
through the blood if permanent cure
is expected External applications may
give temporary relief from pain but as
long as the poisonous acid is III the blood
tho pain will return, perhaps III new
place, but it will surely return. DR.. VIII
liams' Pink Pills cure rheumatism be-
cause they go directly to the seat of the
disorder, purifying and enriching the
blood.
Mrs. Henry Gotta, of West Cheshire,
Conn, is the wife of the village ma
chinist. Several years ago, she says,
81 was laid up with rheumatism in my
feet, ankles and knees / was in con-
slant pain aud sometimes the affected
parts would swell so badly that | could
not get about ut all to attend to my
household dnties. There was one period
of three weeks during which | was CON
fined to the bed. My sufferings were
awful md the DOCTOR medicine did not
help me.
One day nelghbor told me about
DR. Williams Pink Pills and decided to
try them. After l had taken them a
short time was decidedly better and a
few more boxes cured me. What Is
better, the cure was permanent
Remember DR.. Williams Pink Pills do
not act on the bowels. They make new
blood and restore shattered nerves. They
tone up the stomach aud restore impaired
digestion, bring healthful, refreshing
sleep, give strength to the weak and make

hungry and energetic They are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, 80 cents per box, six

Ginseng In MissOuri.

According to the Missouri experiment
station bulletin, the cultivation of gin
scng for the Chinese market has be-
come an important industry In that
State, Notwithstanding the fact that it
takes five or six years to mature crop.
While the crop is exceptionally yalu-
able, the cultivation of ginseng has
been found to possess disadvantages
the same as most other cultivated
crops 1t appears that several fungus
diseases have broken out In the gin
seng plantations, some OF which are
extremely serious and infectious, large
areas often being destroyed in sin
gle week. However, the particular or.
gansms causing the damage have been
recognized and methods for keeping the
diseases under control have now been
worked out.

The Onion Ntagxof.

The onion maggot and cabbage mag.
got can only be distinguished by an
expert, as they are very nearly alike
The maggot is the larva of a small fly
There is no known sure" remedy that
can be applied. Sprinkling powdered
sulphur around the plants is a partla,
remedy, but it does not always briae
relief. Making a small hole near each
onion and pouring into each hole half 4
teaspoonful of blsulphide of carbon
covering the holes with earth, is claim
ed to be remedy, but such method is
expensive and laborious. Liquid ma
nure applied to the plants is claimed
to be remedy. The best preventive
is to grow the onions Oh land that Las
not before produced crop, but OF
course such can not be done until next
season, This change of location of the
onion patch is the only partial solution
of the maggot problem.

Farm Hog-Killing OUTFIT.


As all farmers who kill their own
hogs know, the old way Of butchering
Is very inconvenient and tiresome. The
following arrangement, illustrated IN
the Queenslander, makes the labor COM
paratively easy. The top piece Is 2xo
inches and IL feet long. The mortices
for the supports to At in are made five
inches from the ends Of piece, and are
one-half inch deep. 21a inches wide at
bottom, by ~ inches a, top, thus only
one bolt Is needed to hold them to-
gether at top. The upright supports
are 2x21a, and seven feet long; cross
piece, 1Ax2h, and at one end this
should be bolted on upright pieces,
down low enough so that bench will set
over it. The lever is 31ax2 at staple,
and shaved down to IL at end. Sta
pies made Of five-siXteenths inch rod
iron, and long enough to clinch. Clevis
where chain Is fastened Is made Of
three -eighths inch iron. The end Of the
lever is iron, 6x2M bent, as shown for
gambrel stick to rest on, while lifting
pig to the pole hooks, which are made
large enough to slip back and forth
easily on upper piece. Rods one-half

No Profit in Farm Alcohol.

The Department of Agriculture,
through DR.. II. W. Wiley, chief of the
bureau of chemistry, has undertaken
to educate the farmers regarding the
manufacture of denatured alcohol. Two
bulletins on the subject have been is
sued.
From DR.. Wiley's discussion Of the
subject the conclusion is reached that
the manufacture of alcohol on a very
small scale is not likely to prove prof
liable, and because of revenue regula-
lions it is evident that the farmer must
terials. The bulletin on the subject of
sources and manufacture says:
The principal uses of Industrial al
tohol are illumination, heating, motive
power and the manufacture Of lacquers,
Earnishes, smokeless powder, medicinal
and pharmaceutical preparations, vine
gar and ether. When industrial alco-
hol Is made at a price at which it can
compete with petroleum and gasoline,
it doubtless will be preferred for the
purposes above mentioned, because of
its greater safety and more pleasant
odor. Under the present conditions it
is not probable that Industrial alcohol
can be offered upon the market at much
less than 40 cents Il gallon of % per
cent strength"
DR.. Wiley expresses the belief, how
ever, that by paying attention to I'M
used sources of raw material and with
improved methods Of manufacturing
and denaturing this price can be di-
unfinished.

TRAJANS COLUMN RESTORED.
Prof. Boni, Italian Archaeological, Com
pletes Great Undertaking.

Prof Boni, the Italian archaeoloGist,
has just completed his greatest under
taking, the restoration of Trajan's col
umn. this task having consisted in re-
placing no fewer than fifteen pieces of
marble which had fallen out of their
places in the column, thus menacing n
possible collapse of the entire structure.
The grotto beneath the monument has
also now been filled in, giving the whole
n firmer hold on its foundations, SO that
no untoward collapse may ever be feared
in the future. The loosening of the re-
stored portions had been occasioned by
the fall of the bronze statue of the EN-
neror Trajan, which surmonnted the
column.

TALL CHIMNEYS.

High, and Leaning Stack.
The highest chimney in England is
that at Barlow ~ Do6son's mill ut Bel
ton. 1t is 1863 feet in height and the ma
teral used in its construction WAS $780,
900 bricks and l22 tons of stone.
This big smokestack is eXcelled by at
least two in Scotland-the St. RolloX
chimney in Glasgow is 40 feet and the
Townsend chimney in the same city is
46S feet high But the steeplcjacks make
no more of climbing such shafts than
one third Of their height. though the
vibration is much greater and more
serious at times.
All chimneys vibrate says Harper S
Weekly. especially in a gale: it is II con-
dition of their safety, but the oscillation
at the top is Il serious matter for any
one at work there during high wind,
and the job is postponed to calmer
day.
Lancashire also boasts one of the
crookedest chimneys in the world-a
shaft at Brook Mill, Heywood-which
is nearly 200 feet high and more than
six feet out of plumb. 1t has been beted
with iron bands and is considered safe.
