bolt of lightning locked Wallace, four
teen-year-old son of William J.. Wheel
er, in a closet at Worcester. Mass,
but failed to release him again. The
boy was in the house. when a bolt

Duration Of Animal Life.

A great variance as to length of life
appears among different animals.
Some insects live only for a few hours,
while fish, elephants and turtles are
frequently centenarians. The average
life Of the mosquito is three days.
Toads usually live to the age of about
10 years, while carp have been known
to reach a hundred and fifty. Chickens
live from IL to Is years; dogs to the
age of 10 and occasionally Is. and par
rots to extreme age. These birds have
been known to pass the age of 200
years. Turtles are also frequently CEN
tenarians, as are storks, and elephants
are said to reach the age of 300 years.

BITTER ROT OF p L
suggestions az to How the Disease
Can Be Controlled.

The control Of bitter rot of apples
receives attention in circular 112 late
ty issued from the Illinois experiment
station and prepared by Prof. J. C.
Blair. The author takes advantage of
the opportunity to repeat the conclu-
sions that have been reached at Ur-
bana by the authorities. Here they
Are:
!. Bordeaux mixture properly made
and applied will ave owe 80 per cent.
Of the fruit liable to attack by bitter
rot.
2. Fruit sprayed in such q manner
as to be thoroughly coated with Bor-
deaux mixture when the first infection
Of the disease appears will be injured
least by bitter rot.
g.. Spraying with Bordeaux mixture
until the fruit is completely coated as
soon as the first injection OF bitter rot
Is discovered is OF considerable value.
but is much less effective than treat
ment mentioned In No. 2.
4. Spraying with Bordeaux mixture
until the fruit is thoroughly coated
after bitter rot has become well es-
tablished may control the disease to q
considerable extent in some seasons.
In other seasons Its effect as a remedy
Is very slight.
s. Bordeaux mixture applied In the
liquid form and made up according to
the $50 formula IL the most effec.
tive spraying material for the control
OF apple bitter rot.
g.. Dust spray Is absolutely inefec-
tive In preventing bitter rot.
Z. Pure solutions of copper sui
phate failed to chick the disease and
caused injury to the foliage.
8. To coal the fruit thoroughly
with the mixture it is necessary to
make at least three applications of
the spray material.
g.. Applications Of rs pounds Of salt
to the ground about a tree have no
value in checking the disease.
10. The conditions most favorable
TOR the development of bitter rot are
~ a period of hot weather accom-
panied by frequent rains and heavy
dews at a period when the apple crop
Is approaching maturity, /. e., from
the second week in July to the end OF

Relieves the knife-like pains Of neu-

record of Neuralgia Anodyne.
This reliable remedy is entirely diff
ferent from anything else that you
have ever used, as it is taken inter-
nally as well as rubbed on the affected
parts, so that it reaches the seat of the
nerve pains. and at the same time
finds it's way through the pores Of the
skin to the aching tissues and throb-
bling nerves.
Neuralgia Anodyne is so invariably
successful in curing neuralgia, rheu-
matism, headaches, and other nerve
sufferIngs, that it is sold under an alb
solute guarantee that the money will
be refunded unless it cures. A large
sized bottle costs but 25 cts. Sold ev-
