The Kansas City Journal one day
this week printed a story rnder
the significant double headlines:
prosperity in St Clair county,
Railroad debt has no eHeet upon the
size of pumpkins. The habit Of
republican, newspaper and republican
orators to lay claim to the results Of
the fertility of the soil and the
timellness Of rains is here combined
with an apology for the railroad debt
Of St. Clair county. There may be
some doubt about republican credit
for crop yield, but there can he none
as to the railroad debt.

The city Of New Orleans has com.
pleted the most expensive sewer
system 10 the world. The city has
incurred an expense Of s26, 600, 600

sewage into the river, which is eight
or nine feet higher than the city.
Sanitary engineers say that in a few
years New Orleans will be the clean

When Mr.. Bryan announced in his
Madison Square Garden speech that
while he favored a continuance Of the
effort TO control the railroads under
private ownership and felt SURF that
the peoDle were not ready to adopt
public ownership. for his own part as
a personal opionion he believed the
efforts to control would prove unavail.
Ing, the newspapers all over the land
FASTENED to announce the Nebras
kan's political death. The ink was
hardly dry on these thousands or
fearful obituaries when Mr.. Bryan
began his speaking tour-a tour com
pared WITH which other campaigns in
of years dwindle to nothing. The
great audiences which head him ir
st Louis, louisville Kansas City
and other pieces where deliberate
effort was made to work up demon.
STATIONS are not as surprising as the
throngs that have beSeigtd his train
everywhere he has gone. In bis four
days campaign in Missouri he spoke
tn more than two hundred thousand
people, sometimes having to speak in
the darkness, late at night, from the
train platform. Everywhere the
story has been the same. In North
Missouri, South Missouri, Indian
Territory and Illinois his train has
been stopped and he has been forced
to speak where no appointments had
been made. In spite of all the reports
of This political suicide, Mr.. Bryan
appears to be very much alive.

Whose Say-so is Best?

With nearly all medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has TO take
the makers say-So alone as to their cura-
tive value. OF course, such testimony is
not that of a disintereSted party and
accordingly is not TO lie given the same
credit as if written from disinterested
motives. DR.. Pierce's medicines, how
ever. form single and therefore striking
exception TO this rule. Their claims to
the confidence of invaiidS does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or
praise. Their ingredients are matters of
public knowledge. being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DIR. Pierce'S full
confidence. Scores of leading medical
men have written enough To fill volumes
in praise of the curative value of the
several ingredients entering into these
we'll known medicines.
Amongst these writers we find such med
zeal lights as Prof. Finley Ellingwood. NJ. d..

Marqin of Profit.

The industry is operated on a mar
gin Of less than cents to each dol
lar Of sales. Swift & Co. do not sell
at retail. Their entire output is sold
at wholesale to many thousands Of
dealers in various parts of the world.
There are hundreds of local slaughter
ers !. throughout the United States;
who buy their live stock in competi-
ton with the packer doing an inter
state and international business. Like
wise the packer must sell in compe-
tition with the local slaughterers.
There are no secret processes in the
industry, no complicated and expen-
sive factories, and as live stock can
be purchased in almost every hamlet
and city, and the preparation, of
meats is simple in the extreme, local
slaughtering will long remain fac
tor in the production of fresh meats
and provisions.

FALL WHEAT RAISING in
ALBERTA.
The Spring Wheat Areas Are Rapidly
Increasing.

wheat Areas ARE RdPlQlN
Increasing.
1t is only few short years since
the impression prevailed that a large
portion of the Canadian West was I'M
fitted for agriculture. To such an
extent did this impression prevail
that districts larger than European
principalities were devoted solely to
ranching purposes, and 1ocks and
herds roamed the ranges. But the
agriculturist was doing some hard
thinking, and gradually experiments
were made, slowly at first, but sure
~ later on. AS a result, to-day in
Southern Alberta, which was looked
upon as the arid belt" large quaint
ties of the finest winter wheat in the
world are now grown, and so salts
fed are the farmers and buyers that
the industry has passed the expert
mental stage that elevators by the
score have been erected in the past
two years. and others in course of
erection, to satisfy the demands that
will be made upon them in the near
future.

wheat has achieved a worldwide
reputation, and there can be no ques-
ton that ere long mo. l Hard win
ter wheat from Alberta will attain
similar repute. The great market for
this production will undoubtedly be
the Orient, and. with increased rail
way facilities and the erection Of ad-
ditional elevators and Touring mills,
largely increased acreage Will be
broken TO winter wheat. The increase
of population in Southern Alberta in
the past year has been largely due
to settlers from the United States
who have brought. in capital and en-
terprise, and who have been uniform
" successful in their undertakings.

WHEN THE HEART RESTS.
1t Gets a Great Deal of Rest During

1t has been said that the heart new

he said, gets a great deal of rest
during sleep for its beats are far less
numerous-that it to say, there is. a
longer period between each. 1t has
no longer to support all the activities
of the body, bat merely to keep the
life in the frame AS for the brain,
during sleep it becomes pale and
shrinks, the heart no longer having
to supply it with blood to anything
like the same extent as in its. waking
hours. Sleep, in fact, means very
complete reduction of all the vital
processes Even the tear glands get
a rest. This is why we rub our eyes
on waking. 1t is in order to ,stimu-
late the glands to furnish moisture for
the eyes. which have become dry as
a result of the inaction of the tear
fountains
