The Grin.

"Before we can sympathize with Others
we must have suffered ourselves" No one
can realize the suffering attendant upon an
attack of the grip, unless he has had the
actual experience. There is probably no
disease that causes SO much physical and
mental agony, or which so successfully de-
iies medical aid. All danger from the grip,
however, may be avoided by the prompt
use Of Chamberain's Cough Remedy.
Among the tens of thousands who have used
this remedy, not one case has ever been re.
ported that has resulted in pneumonia or
that has net recovered. For sale hy Field.

MUST WED, ELSE NO FORTUNE.
Bachelor Uncle Makes Short Stipuia-

Findlay, O.-According to John B.
'Lowery, of Toledo, he will soon, he
hopes, set out for Australia to take
possession of $20,000,O0O left to him
by an uncle.
Duncan Cameron, the uncle, was a
resident of that country and accumu-
lated his money in mines, bank
stocks and ships. He died at the age
iof 80 years. He was a member of
parliament and a man of influence, ac-
,cording to the story. He never took
"a wife and by the terms of the will
81, 10000 is to be divided among the
servants.
One OF the provisions of the will is
that Lowery is to marry before he
receives the legacy, and for that rea-
son he will not consent to have his
picture published, fearing an ava
.lanche of letters from many :rrespon-
sible women. He will marry as soon
as he finds a woman to his liking and
iwiIl then go to Australia to claim the
fortune. He says his wife must be
lable to maintain the dignity his vast
wealth will bring.
Lowery was left an orphan at the
age Of IL years and has been making
his own way since that time. For
years he has operated in the Michigan
mining country and owns several
mines.

MOST ANCIENT APPLE TREES.
Planted by spaniards in New Mexico,
They Have Borne Fruit 800 Years.

Ell Paso, Textile Oldest apple
orchard in America If not in the world
is in the center OF the ancient town
of Manzano, Is miles southwest of
Estancia, Torrance county. New Mex
leo. Many of the trees are more than
six feet in circumference, but all are
still fruitful and vigorous although
neglected for generations. Little is
known of the history of this orchard,
but the Oldest inhabitants of the val
ley of the Rio Grande remember the
orchard from childhood and claim
that the trees have not changed in
appearance since then. Venerable
Mexicans and Pueblo Indians tell of
visiting the orchard as far back as
they can remember and finding apples
on the ground in all stages of decom-
position at least two feet deep.
The Estancia valley has been peo-
pied for ages. probably by the kins-
men of the natives found by the Span
and other ancient cities. Probably in
the early days of the Spanish occupa-
tion some Franciscan monk found his
way to ManZano and there planted the
seeds that have developed into these
venerable trees. They are no doubt
fully 300 years old.
Close by, the orchard is a little lake
fed by large spring. A short dis
tance away is a grove of pines and
cedars, making an ideal place for
picnic and camping parties.

CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by cutieura.

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent ply
sician for an obstinate case OF &C.
zema, resorted to the Cuticura-Rem-
edies. and was so well pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief AFFORD
ed that we discarded the physicians
prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap. Cuticura Oint-
ment. and Cuticura Pills. When We
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks We had her completely well.
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble.
In July of this year little boy
in our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were
a mass of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cuticura
Soap. and amounting them with the
Cuticura Ointment. and then gave
him the Cuticura Resolvent. In
about three weeks his hands AMI
arms healed up. So we have lots of
cause for feeling grateful for the Gu
ticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are valuable
