The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and Civ
ing the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative DOW
ers that they offer One Hundred Dol
lars for any case that it fails to cure.

eyroscope as Compass.
(Chicago Tribune)


The mariners compass occasionally
fails OF its purpose in these days of
iron ships and cargoes of a magnetic
nature. This especially is the case
in warships, where the huge masses Of
iron and steel in guns and gun tur-
rets, etc. are liable to affect the read
ing OF the compass.
It is the usual practice to make all
possible corrections, but gun turrets
have to be moved around, and the cor
rections cannot always be trusted.
Again, the shock due to the firing
of big guns is bad for the compass.
Dr. n. Anchutz-Kampfe has invented
a new form of steering standard, de-
pendent for its operation upon the
principle of the gyroscope.
This apparatus has been subjected
to exhaustive tests on battleship,
where amid the firing of great guns
the movement of the turrets and such
other disturbing influences as would
effectually have disposed of the ordi-
able precision and came out Of the
trials quite uninjured. The apparatus
consists essentially Of an electrically
operated gyroscope carrying an indi-
eating needle and pivoted within an
arc similar to that of the ordinary
compass.
The instrument does not necessarily
point north and south, but it tends
continually to point in any direction
in which 1t is set, and thus to indicate
any change Of direction of the ship. It
is not proposed to displace the mar
iner's compass by means of this instru-
ment, for its readings would tend to
become inaccurate after long periods
Of use without resetting by some STAN
dard. 1t will serve as a useful sup
plement to the compass.

The girl interrupted their distressing
reflections.

begged the captain. IL am the only
one at fault. Oh, 1 had to get away!

Stephens "I'H isolate you In the deck

Glenister had been thinking rapidly.

ground his teeth.
Eyes; that's what 1t amounts to.
You'll ruin your owners, all right.
You'll tie up your ship and lose your

Captain Stephens wiped the moisture
from his brow angrily.
''My carelessness! Curse you-you
say it well! Don't you realize that
am criminally liable If don't take
every precaution?' He paused for a
moment, considering. 'I'll hand her

st. Augustine, Fla, the oldest city
in the United States, is to hold her
first county fair in November. An ex-
cellent committee is tn direct charge
and is devoting much time to the work.
The people generally are taking an
intense interest in the approaching
fair, and a spiendid exhibition Of St
Johns county products will be dis
played. Hastings, with its diversified
farming, will alone make an exhibit
that viii be revelation to every one.
Biooded stock Is raised in various
parts of the county, and the owners
are already grooming them for the dis
play. The north end Of the county will
send sheep, the middle section cattle
and all sections poultry and thorough.

most every variety will form an inter
esting feature Of the exhibits, says the
Florida Fast Coast Homeseeker. Or
anges, peaches. figs, grape fruit, pears,
guavas, plums, persimmons and doz-
ems OF other varieties OF fruits will
swell the array Of exhibits. 1t is i'm
possible to enumerate the various
fruits and vegetables that flourish on
the farms Of this fertile county, and it
is safe to predict that the display will
surprise even those familiar with the
resources OF the county.
Cigars manufactured In st. Angus

products are not excelled by the choic-5

The forests will also be called upon
to add to the success OF the fair. Fur

Oddity in the Mems

Remarkable Drive on Links.
Davenport.--One of the best drives
known to have been made on the Cen
eva Golf links was made by Rev. j. NJ
Elliott when he made the eighth hole
in one stroke. The hole is only four
inches in diameter and was over lo4
yards distant from the place where
Mr. Elliott hit the ball. making the
feat most remarkable.
He was playing a practice game and
was driving to the eighth hole when
he saw the bail roll along in the short
grass and then disappear. This is the
only hole that has ever been made in
one stroke on the local links. Last
summer Fred Beach made very SIM
liar drive, and after hunting about in
the grass for several hours looking
for his ball, he found it in the hole.

DESCRIBES VERMONT TRIP
Richard Mattison Visited Numerous
Vermont Cousins.


Below are printed some quotations
from letters published in the Geneva,
Neb., Signal. and written by Richard
A. Mattison, who with his wife and his
sister, Mrs. John Ward were guests
here last summer of w. II. Bentley
and other relatives. Mr.. Mattison is a
son OF Isaiah Mattison, who also was
born on Maple Hill in SALISBURY and
went west many years ago and is now
dead. Mr.. Mattison's letters describe
their entire eastern trip, but the fol-
lowing extracts take up on those parts
of interest here;
at 4 D. m. we arrived in Benning-
ton, VT, our destination, In violent
thunder storm Now we were treated
to something new, that of hearing the
thunder echo as it vibrated from one
mountain to another.
Bennington is a beautiful little city
surrounded by mountains and fine
scenery. 1t has fine water power and
many factories. It is an historic town.
Here was fought on the 18th OF Aug
ust, 1777, the battle of Bennington, the
turning point of the Revolutionary war;
1t was here that General Stark said he
would win the battle or Molly Stark
would be a widow" A monument over
306 feet high has been erected here in
memory of those brave men. We went
to the top of this monument, ascending
thirty-four flights of 4l2 steps. There
we commanded fine view of the city
and surrounding country.

no trouble in finding our relatives for

SHALL WE SPRAY FOR
THE COOLING MOTH

Fruit growers are writing the Agri-
cultural College Experiment Station to
know whether or not it will be neces-
sary to spray their apple trees this
year for the codling moth. The ques-
tions are being asked by those who
have lost most, if not all of their crop
by the late cold weather.
If no fruit is being borne by the
trees, it will not be necessary to spray
for this insect Upon the other hand,
apples the necessity for very thorough
spraying will be greater than in ordi-
nary years, because the moths will
hatch in the usual number and will
be compelled to concentrate their egg
laying about the few apples that the
orchard is bearing. 1t is possible that
the crop may be SO light in many in
stances that the apples may become
wormy in spite of the spraying, and Ia
such cases l believe it would be wise
to destroy all the fruit early IN the
season and in this way r'actically
wipe out the codling meth depreda-
/ tions in your vicinity for TWO or three
years. In every section where the ap-
pie orchards bea. this year, fruit grow
ers should support their inspectors in
every reasonable manner in their eff
forts 70 get every man who has bear
ir5 apple trees to take care of his cod
ling moths and destroy all OF them as
nearly as possible. In this way some
benefit may be derived from year of
extreme shortage in fruit.

GEORGE CASSIDY SAYS
PROSPECTS ARE GOOD

Geo II. Cassedy came home on Fri
trict, in Silver Park, where he is as
s0ciated with Fred Moore and John
Lloyd in the development of some very
promising claims. He says they have
shaft sunk to the depth of about
ninety feet and that the ore body is
gradually increasing in size, which he
regards as hopeful indication of the
value and permanenCy of the property
Although there Is no snow on the
ground in the Spaulding district at the
present time the trails are muddy and
conditions are unfavorable for mining
operations. New people are going in
all the time, according to Mr.. Cassidy,
and the opinion prevails that the camp
is destined to be a permanent one and
| that it will ultimately become one of
the big producers of the state.
The faith of prospectOrs in the rich
ness of the district is such that great
deal of mining machinery has been
contracted for and will be taken in
7, this summer. in fact, some of 1t has
already reached Westcliffe. where 1t
will have to remain until the roads
can be put into proper condition to
permit its being hauled to destination.
There are many good prospects in
the Spaulding and Boneyard Park
Districts" said Mr.. Cassedy, land ex-
perienced mining men are confident
that development will fully justify the
most sanguine expectations of the
mineral richness OF the territory"
