Out of Sight.

"Out of sight, out of mind" is an
old saying which applies with special
force to a sore, burn or wound that's
been treated with Bucklen's Arnica
Sllve. It's out oisight, out of mind
and out OF existence. Piles, too and
chilblsins disappear under Its heal

FRIENDS URGE JONES

Br0okviIIe Man Has Claims on
Seat in Congress.
ONCE AIDED Mr.. WATSON

Brookville, Ind. Sept. 19.-When the
republican nomination for congress
from this district was to be made ten
years ago. c. F. Jones was slated for
the honor. Mr.. Jones turned his in
fluence and following 10 James Wat
son, for the reason that he thought that
there was slim chance of beating
Holman, and that he thought it was the
duty of a good party man to do all in
his power to gain honorable success.
Now, when Watson is leaving congress
and the district has been so redistrict-
ed as to make it stronghold, Mr.
Jones friends are urging him to enter

Spanish war claims commission and
has just arrived here on his vacation.

EIoWerpots.

All new fiowerpots require to be
soaked in water and allowed to dry
thoroughly before being used. The soil
does not hang well to the sides of gar
den pots unless so treated. Dirty pots
are open to the same objection. Let
any one try to put a plant with fresh
soil into a pot which has been used
before and left unwashed, and he will
find in a few days, when the soil be-
gins to dry, that it leaves n space and
does not adhere as it should to the
sides of it. No plant can possibly
flourish under such circumstances. The
roots of a plant draw to the sides of q
pot naturally in search of moisture,
and growth of course is checked If a
current of air is allowed to pass be-
tween them and the sides. Some plants
exhibit this tendency in such a remark
able degree that few roots are to be
seen, except network on the outside
of the soil next the pot.

1t would perhaps be pushing meta
phors to an unwarranted extreme to
speak of dignity of labor in cunnec
ton with the occupations of ants. But
If by the phrase we mean that labor is
the honorable lot Of all citizens and
that all labors OF whatever s41IA re
upon the same level of responsibility
then we might venture TO apply the
saying even to the labors of an ant
hill. For therein all are workers, from
the newly fedged callow to the vet
eran of a second summer.-Harpers

A Daring Young Adventurer With a
Thrilling Career.

A Daring Young Adventurer With a
Thrilling Career.
Captain John Smith of Willoughby,
Lincolnshire, was the man to whom
the success of the first English perna-
nent settlement in North America was
directly due. Though only twenty-six
when the expedition sailed with him
on board, he had already enjoyed such
succession of thrilling experiences as
was the lot of few men even in the adj
veuturous age of Elizabeth. At the age
of sixteen he had entered on a military
career in France and the Low Countries.
In 1000 he sought service against the
Turks, who were then at the height OF
their power and had only lately ceased
TO threaten Vienna itself. On the way
to the east he was thrown overheard
as a Huguenot and was rescued by
pirate. from whom his inexhaustible
resourcefulness enabled him to escape
after time He then entered the Aus
TRAN service and soon signaliZed him
self by series of brilliant exploits
One of these. the defeat of three Turl.

him his well known coat of arms

Sigismond Bathori. prince of Transyl
vania. Later he was taken prisoner b.
the Turks and owed his escape to tn
interest with which he inspired a Turk

TO turn il to account. In the worst dan
gers he knew what was the right thin

About
Grape-Nuts

"A short time ago l was called to a
patient who had been given up by his
physician.
His stomach would not bear food. and
consequently he got no nourishment
and was slowly dying from exhaustion
He was reduced to skin and bones. l
Immediately put him on Grape Nuts
food and Postum Food Coffee. He
could keep both articles on his stom-
ach and neither caused him any pain.
He has been using both the food and
the cereal coffee and has gained rapid

The reason a delicate stomach can
take Grape Nuts food is that it is pre-
digested by natural means during its
preparation, and even small babe can
handle it as it causes no heavy work
by the stomach and digestive apparat-
us; on the contrary, being predigested.

how decided and precocious was this
musicians aptitude for the art he ulti-
mately nracticed with artistic if not

near Exeter in 1165. At the age of six
he sought every means of gratifying
He was in want of n musical instru-
ment and determined to provide him

duce many dramatic pieces and such
songs as "Just Like Love-" THE Death

SUGAR MAKING.
The Htndoos Probably Learned the
Art From the Chinese.

The Chinese, who invented almos.
everything before anybody else heard
of it, claim to be the original discover
ers of the process of sugar making,
and it Is said that sugar was used in
China as long ago as 5000 years. This
is misty, but the fact is well establish
ed that it was manufactured in China
under the Tsin dynasty 200 years at
least before the Christian era began.
India has put forward claim for
priority OF invention. but the probable
fty is that the Hindoos learned the art
of sugar making from the Chinese and
that through them the knowledge final
ly spread to the western nations. Ne
archus, when sent by Alexander on an
exploring voyage on the Indus, brought
back reports of honey" which was
made by the Asiatics from cane with
out the help of bees.
At this time neither the Greeks nor
the Jews nor the Babylonans had any
knowledge of sugar, but later the art
of making the artificial honey be-
came known and practiced. though its
progress and development were ex-
ceedingly slow. 1t was prescribed as
a medicine by Galen in \. d. $50, and
up to the seventeenth century ii had
become nothing more than a costly
luxury, to be used only on special occa-
sions. Even as late as the beginning
of the eighteenth century the annual
consumption of sugar in Great Britain
had reached only 200O0.O00 pounds,
whereas it is now more than 1000. 00O,-
900 pounds.
Refined sugar was not made in Eng
land till 1859. The art of refining was
learned by Venetian merchant from
the Saracens, who sold the secret to
him for 100000 crowns.

THE PEACE PROBLEM.

Just at this time when the mild
hammered diplomats at The Hague are
wrestling with the problem of a world
wide peace and the doing away with
war, the wide awake countries of the
earth are most surely bringing about
that more or less Utopian ideal by vas
thy increasing their ornaments. Eng
land has ordered another battleship
of the famous Dreadnaught type. Ger
many is building three more armour
er cruisers and two more battleships,
Brazil is increasing her rather small
navy and the United States is in the
field for two more large battleships.
Furthermore the United States is go
ing to try to prove the axiom that
a large navy is the surest guarantee
of peace, by sending an enormous
fleet to the Pacific ocean, and exper
imenting as to whether this will be
sufficient to make the Japanese keep
their hands off the Philippines and
the Hawaiian Islands. And that SER
yes as a reminder that Japan is also
greatly strengthening her navy and is
said to have two of the largest battle
ships in the world about ready to be
launched. Japan's anxiety to get a
great navy is not believed to be SO
much in the interest of peace as of
y< ;c Fell hat
cessful wars, the war with China and
the war with Russia, have turned her
head away from the paths of peace
and set her to looking for territorial
increases from her neighbors' poss-
essions. 1t is encouraging to see Bra |
I'll increasing her navy as that means |
stronger ally for the United States |
in maintaining the principles of the |
Monroe doctrine. If congress proves I
true to the country it will provide for
a new navy to take the place of the
fleet we are sending to the Pacific.
Our navy is not for war but for guar
anteeing peace. We need a large ma
wy to do this, because, owing to our
extremely long coastline on the At
lantic as well as on the Pacific, we
have many important points to de-
fend And if any designing nation
like Japan, for instance, realizes that
we have navy capable of defending
both our Atlantic and Pacific coast
lines, as well as large enough to as
sumo the offensive In foreign quCrt-
ers, the danger of war would be re-
duced to a minimum. 1t is up to con-
gress however, to enable us to bring
this about by greatly strengthening
our navy.

Dicestible Food,

One of the biggest mistakes about
food which people make is to forget
that the true value of food to anybody
is the measure of its digestibility. Half
a pound of cheese is vastly more nour-
fishing as regards its mere composition
than half a pound of beef, but while
the beef will be easily digested and
thus be of vast service to us the cheese
is put out of court altogether for ordi-
nary folks by reason of its indigesti-
bility We should bear this rule in
mind when we hear people comparing
one food with another in respect to
their chemical value. - London Hospi-

REDUCING THE GRADE.

in reducing the grade at the famous
Blue Hill between this city and Co
lumbus. o., on the Indianapolis divis-

of work to be done on the grade can
be estimated when it is known that
the work cannot be completed in less
than one years time. Eleven work
trains with their crews are engaged
at the present time. The job is one
of the largest attempted by the en-
gineers of the Indianapolis division in
several years.
