Way to Kill Rats.

An Oklahoma farmer uses this
method of cleaning out rats: "On
a large number of old shingles
put about a half teaspoonful of
molasses each, and on that with
my pocket knife | scraped a small
amount of concentrated I've. |
then placed the shingles around
under the cribs. The next morn
ing | found forty dead rats and
the rest left for parts unknown.
L have cleared many farms of the
pests in the same way, and have
never known it to fall"
We never pick up a pap er
filled with good local ne ws," says
an old newspaper man, but what
we are reminded of the hard work
it has taken to gather them in and
present them in a spicy. readable
manner. Few people who read a
paper carelessly ever think of the
amount of labor and patience it
requires. Sometimes they will
criticize some. locals that have no
particular interest to them and
which may appear trivial but they
interest others and after all life is
largely made up OF small things"
Mr.. ireland, who has been at the
hospital for some time since being in
jnred BY team near the city hall,
is reported to be much improved.

G2AIN MARKET IN A TRUST.
Sensational Charge Before the Com
mefCe COmmiSSiCa.

Chicago, Oct. 15.-H. H. Carr
Of Chicago, founder of the far
mers' elevator movement, today
made the sensational charge be-
fore the Inter- State Commerce
Commission, that the entire
country is in the grasp of the
criminal trust that con trolls the
grain market. He exhibited a
book which he said contained the
names of seven thousand men
whose business had been practic-
ally ruined by the trust. Carr
said a letter to the Commission
by President Roosevelt was. re-
ferred to the assistant attorney
general. aud was never answered.
In the hearing several witnesses
suggested that nothing short of
government control would procure
a remedy for the farmer and small
jobber. A. |. Valentine, a for
mer president of the Armour
Grain & Elevator Co.. has been
subpoenaed.

AQueer HOrsethlei.

The party mentioned in Fri.
days Rustler who had hired a
team from Dailey's barn to 90 out
in the country a short distance,
ana then mailed a card back to
the postmaster that he would be
gone two or three days. has been
heard of.
He registered at the I.endall
hotel as c. S. Tyson, Chicago.
and said that he was out in this
country on land business but he
did not seem to want to see any of
the land men around town and
Immediately after breakfast
Thursday hired the team and
started out. After the receipt of
the card saying that he would be
gone two or three days. the
liveryman became suspicious and
had a Warrant issued for him.
The team was found Friday
evening tied in a small grove of
trees near Hollywood, and a note
fastened in the buggy said that
this team belongs in Great
Bend" That was all. No name
was signed to the note, and the
party who discovered the horses
notified the officers here.
The man had a small travelling
bag and a small calibre rife with
him when he came to town. 1t
may have been some deluded
eastern sport who came out to the
wild and woody west to hunt

very scarce. It is supposed that
he took to the railroad again at
Hollywood.

We'll, They We're Proud Of u.

A young couple recently pur-
chased a baby carriage at a local
store, and having the child with
them placed it in the carriage and
started homeward. On their way
home they passed a number of
people who looked at the carriage,
then at them smiling blandly ap-

ton of their friends was a matter
of great annoyance to the two and
was wholly inexplicable until they
reached home. As the little one
was being taken from the vehicle
there eyes fell on a printed card

To Handle Bees.

The owner Of an apiary-which,
as nearly as we can make OFT is a
bee farm-giyes this bit q advice
to his fellOwme n, that to avoid
being stung by a bee it is only
necessary to hold your breath
when one of the insects light on
you as he says that for some rea.
son a bee cannot or will not sting
during a suspension of respiration.
TO test this just go out and stir
up a hive and then hold your
breath until they get tired trying
to prod you; of course if your
visitors stay too long and you
co ntinue following directions for
thwarting their amiable purpose
we would't like to answer for
results.

CURE CATARRH NOW.
Do Not Walt Until Winter or disease
Will Become Chronic.

Many people in Great Bend are
beginning to cough and hack with
the fall symptoms o. disagreeable
and offensive catarrh. The tongue
is coated in the morning, and trey
do not sleep well at night on ac-
count of disagreesble tickling and
dropping at the back of the throat
as a result of catarrh. Before the
disease becomes chronic they
should use Hyomei and get CON-
plete freedom from their catarrhal
troubles.
If you neglect to treat catarrh
when it first comes on, the chances
are that it will become so firmly
rooted and deepseated that it will
bother you all winter and may
become chronic and almost incur
able.
The frs. days use of Hyomei
will show a decided improve
ment in health, and in a short
time there will be no further
trouble, and you will be free from
catarrh, and coughs and colds will
not bother you during the winter.
Remember that Hyomei is sold
under al absolute guarantee that
it costs nothing unless it cures.
Hooper Drug Co. have sold a
great many Hyomei outfits, every
one with their personal guarantee
that 1T costs nothing unless it
cures, and they have seen so many
remarkable evidences of the
curative powers of Hyomei that
they are very glad to continue
giving this guarantee With every
package.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81, extra bottles, if needed,
so cents.

Bad Stomach Makes
Bad Blood.

You can not make sweet butter in q
foul, unclean churn. The stomach serves
As a churn in which to agitate. work up
and diSintegrate our food as il is being
digested. If it be weak, sluggish and
foul the result will be torpid, sluggish
liver and bad. impure blood.
The ingredients of Or. Pierce'S Golden
Medical Discovery are just such as best
serve TO correct and cure all such de-
engagements. 1t is made up without q
ieally pure. tripie-refined glycerine being
used instead of the commonly employed
alcohol. Now this glycerine is of itself a
valuable medicine, instead of a deleteri-
IL agent like alcohol, especially in the
cure of weak stomach, dyspepsia and the
various forms of indigestion. Prof. Finley

College, Chicago, says of 1t:

root and Mandrake o o or the extracts of
these. as in DR.. Pierce'S Golden Medical
Discovery, there can be no doubt of its
great efficacy in the cure of all stomach,
liver and intestinal disorders and derange-

the endorsement in all such
cases of such eminent medical leaders as

Unsinkable Steamers.

Five steamboats, are being built for
a KEEL shipping company which are
said to be whol.y unsuitable. A re-
cent trial Of one Of the boats was car
ried u in the presence OF representa-
tives OF he Imperial navy and many
shipping firms. The vessel was fully
laden to represent 200 passengers and
it was assumed that in consequence of
a leak caused by a collision the entire
engine roo division In which water
was pumped had filed, while a hole
was made in the exterior to admit
water freely. The ship accordingly
sank, but when 1t vas full Of water It
had still about a foot Of freeboard
above the surface. thus satisfying the
conditions imposed.
