lifting the top layer. extracted piece
of pickle and ate it; then he closed

Earthquake Aftermath.

At Frisco all records of the courts
were destroyed and many of the
records Of births, deaths and mar
riages. The deeds and mortgages
were nearly all saved, being hauled
away to city square and later
placed in cemetery vault. In places
the basalt block pavements were af-
fected by the severe heat, pieces be-
ing Clipped off the blocks, and in
other places the bituminous rock and
asphalt pavements were cooked by
the heat and the surface was left dry
and lifeless, crumbling into powder
under traffic. There has not yet
been time to study all the conditions
under the light of the fire and earth
quake, but undoubtedly there will be
much to learn.

It Ia marvellous how rapidly some
plants will spread themselves over
wide stretches Of land. The writer
was struck with the way in which the
yellow charlock took possession of the
line when the Neon Valley railway
was being made. The very next spring
after the entertainments were thrown
up their sides were clothed with this
rampant and conspicuous crucifier. A
line OF yellow across the country mark.

railway. Poppies, too, for some un.
known reason, will occasionally appear
In strange and wonderful profusion.
The striking instance related by Lord
Macaulay may be quoted DY way OF
illustration. After the battle of Ian
den the ground, he tells us, during
many months was strewn with skulls
and bones Of men and horses and with
fragments of hats and shoes, saddles
and holsters. The next summer the
soil, fortified by 10000 corpses, broke
forth into millions Of peoples. The
traveller who, on the road from st.
Iron to Tiriemont, saw that vast sheet

II is DANGEROUS to Neglect a Cold.

How often do we hear it remarked:
"It's only a cold" and few days later
learn that the man is on his back with
pneumonia. This is of such common
occurrence that cold, however slight,
should not be disregarded Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy counteracts any
tendency of a cold to result in pneu-
monia, and has gained its great popu-
larity and extensive sale by its prompt
cures of this most common ailment. It
always cures and is pleasant to take.
