PUT RELIGIOUS DUTY SECOND.
Stern Laws of Business Come First,
 Says Austrian Court.

An interesting case at law, which centered on the observance of an old Jewish custom, was decided in Vienna recently. A merchant, says the Ameri- can Israelits, discharged clerk on &C., count of slect of duty. Among the charges against him was that he came to the store late in the morning be- cause he attended service at the syna- gogue in order to say Kaddish-the prayer for the dead-for his father. The clerk argued that it was his privi- lege and his duty to say the prayer for his departed father, while the mer- chant, who was also a religious man, maintained that eff Moses had known that a man had< to pay 5000 gulden year rent Le would have made differ ent laws" The judge would not allow such an argument, but decided in fa- vor of the merchant, because the daily attendance at the synagogue could not be considered the right of the clerk without the consent of the employer"

FAMILY'S SKIN TROUBLES.
Eczema, Heat Rash, and Scalp Affec' tions AffIict Different Members,
 But Cuticura Cures Them.

My wife had eczema for five or six years. It was on her face and would come and go. We thought we would give the Cuticura Remedies trial. We did so and she has never had sign of eczema for four. years. l myself used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment some time ago for falling hair. l now have a very heavy head of hair. We used Cuticura Remedies for our baby, who was nearly bald when young. She has very nice hair now. She is very fleshy, and we had so much trouble with heat that we would bathe her with Cuticura Soap and then apply Cuticura Ointment, it would dry the heat up so much quicker than any, thing else.

If there was ever a period in the history of this country when it was more urgent that every man get busy getting a home shan right, history makes no record of it. For several years we have seen the sad spectacle of hosts of men going up and down the land bowling themselves hoarse about the meanness of spectators "cornering" all sorts of things, except the only real thing that was being cornered, and which has been corner ed since first man became the en- shaver of man. We refer to the cor nering of the lands, which are gift of God to his creatures. This made little difference so long as this coun- try afforded plenty of lands on the same terms-that of seizure-but the time has come when land monopolists -cornerers, if you please-have taken up practically everything de- sirable in this country Ind are hold ing it in a gigantic trust, and almost without taxation, against the man who wants and needs it. This sort Ol lo IIHhlsOly WoioN from a moral point of view than the cornering of any other sort of com modity, because if corn is cornered, it is only little while until new crop in on hand, and so it is of all sorts of crops or any sort of handiwork. The land monopoly is perpetual thing and stands in the way of reliev- ing all other sorts of monOpolies. There is need of education along this line, and it is the duty of the Unions to take this matter up and sift it to the bottom, for it will be no great length of time until this matter will come up in manner that will not be downed, even if it takes uncounted blood and treasure to settle it. In the meantime, h, who is wise will get him an abiding place of his own. The final overthrow of the Hand corner CTS" will not come until their oppres- sion grows so heavy that revolt, or revolution, either bloody or other wise, is the final remedy.

The good Lord has seen fit to cut down the cotton crop again. A few years ago there was a sort of tacit agreement to cut the crop down in all the Southern States. This was kept in some sort of a way. That was a step in the right direction of raising prices. The next step was to hold it for the spinners' price. Both these steps are necessary. It is all tommy rot to talk that holding for price will get the price for all the cotton that might be raised. It will surely get the price for all that is sold but you can make so much cotton that it will not all be demanded at a high price. The moment that it reaches such a price that it is too high to use, the use will be cut down to some extent and that part of the crop will be left on hand, and will bring no price at all. If overcropping is gone into to much larger extent than it now is, there will a slowing up in de mand, and then cotton holders will stampede, and all the good work o1 the last ten years will go to the bow. vows

Kansas City, Mo-Fire in the wholesale district, that for time threatened great destruction Of prop erty, destroyed the fvestory building and contents at Nos. S12-Sl4 Broad way, occupied by the Goldstandt-Pow- ell Hat Co.,, causing loss estimated at $2OO,O0O.
 A panic was started at the Orpheum theater. vaudeville house block and half distant, and several hundred or the 1,500 persons in the audience made a wild rush for exits. Fifteen were hurt before quiet was secured The scene of the fire was in the heart of the wholesale district and within two blocks of the Coates house, one of the leading hostelries.
 The fire started shortly after 10 o'clock and practically all of the fire-fighting apparatus in the city was sent to the scene.
 Some of the theaters were just let ting out, and thousands of persons were soon gathered about the burning building. They served to hinder the work of the firemen and added to the excitement.
 A cry of fire made by people rush. ing by the Orpheum where the per formance was still going on, caused panic among the audience there.
 The manager of the theater made a -fruitless effort to quiet the people, who soon were rushing pell mell for the exits. Many on the main floor quickly reached the street without causing injury to anyone.
 In the balcony and the gallery, how ever, 300 persons were soon blocked by congestion on the narrow stair ways and women trampled upon one another in their mad haste to get out Several women tainted.
 In the midst of the turmoil, Cliff Gordon the monologist, appeared at the front of the stage. First he called loudly to the excited people to keep their seats, assuring them there was no danger, and then went through his act, adding piece of impromptu wit here and there. Soon he had the all dience calmed and the performance continued.

THE u cow.

A Wisconsin dairyman never keeps
the first calf of his heifcrs. His idea
is hat the mother never forgets her
calf and with the young COW this is
apt to have some influence on her
milk yield. His heifers are bred very
young, frequently so that they drop
their calves when they are only eigh-
teen to twenty months old The. calf
is taken away at once, and the young
COW never sees it again. From this
time on she has her milller and feed
er about her. and she soon learns that
her business is to give milk whenever
her tcats are manipulated. Some claim
that when calves are taken away that
the maternal instinct becomes more
or less dominant, and this is apt to
bring about irregular breeding. That
nay be true, but many COWS will breed
near enough to the season wanted:
and by never knowing their offspring
they naturally associate the milk pail
with the function of giving milk and
rarely a young COW thus trained will
ever give any trouble in giving down
her milk.

GRADING UP DAIRY HERDS.

Go into any dairy herd where a good
bull has been used for three or four
years, and see what has been done.
1t is not unusual to see heifcrs with
their first calves giving more milk and
richer milk, than many of the old COWS
in the herd. There is no mistake about
this matter, yet the majority of farm
ers who start into daiIying neglect
this very thing and either start out
and pick up cows, or breed along year
after year, with an ordinary beef bull.
The growing scarcity of Ven ordinary
milch cows, together with the prices
asked are driving some to sensible
breeding. This is show by the. de-
mand this season for Jersey, Guernsey
and Holstein bulls, and buyers are be-
coming more particular about the ped
igree of these dairy bulls. Will it pay?
II you have fair COWS only. it will pay
to buy a pure bred bull. for you can
depend upon his heifers producing
from SIS to S25 more butter fat every
| year, than their dams.

sHoEs1RiMc sREEp OF HOGS

While travelling recently in Maryland
/ was very much interested in the work
of Miss Mary Smith. who raises from
$50 to 500 hogs every year, of the Shoe
string or Ra2orback type, n sells her
cured products to private customers in
eastern cities. The Foundation OF her
herd comes from the genuine razor
backs which twenty years age We're
found running wild in h God of
Georgia. Jnde domestication these
hardy hogs have become quiet and now
go under the name of 'Shoestrings.
They have long. fiat hams and great.
fiat sides of firm meat. UP to the fat
tening period they range in woods or
pastures, and they have never been
trained to store up fat. Their meat is
lean, with here and there streaks of
fat; 1t is firm and swee and lacks that
greasy navor found in all corn-raised
pork. The only carr these hogs get is
about six weeks before they are killed.
The curing is one after an old recipe,
and the smoked meats are never sent to
customers until after it has been in
the smokehouse for at least twelve
months. The meat is delicious, as |
can personally testify. and Miss smith
has no trouble in selling her products
of 500 hogs annually
