A Cardboard Planet.

One remarkable achievement of Sir
William Herschel was in connection
with the planet Saturn. He had ar
ranged to erect his telescope at Wind
sor castle to enable Queen Charlotte
and the ladies of the court to see the
wonders of the ringed planet, but on
the evening arranged for the observa-
ton great banks Of clouds covered the
sky. However, he explained that that
would not matter, and after the instru.
ment had been carefully directed the
queen and her attendants looked
through it and saw the great planet
and its marvellous rings quite distinct.
ly. Herschel, it seems, had expected
bad weather and during the day had
made cardboard model of the Saturn
Ian system and erected 1t in the
grounds, lamp at the back providing
the necessary illumination.-Wes

Death OF j. F. Humphrey.

In our last issue we noted the death
in North Dakota of j. +. Humphrey,
formerly of this county, SON in law
Of Mr.. and Mrs. 0. Casterton of this
city, while out hunting deer. 1t was
supposed at that time that he had
been accidentally shot, but further
particulars since received bring the
intelligence that his death was caused
by fall from tree. He had shot
one deer, and climbed up in tree
after another and succeeded in shoot
ing it, and in getting down the limb
OH which he was standing broke, and
at the same time the one above him
which he was holding onto with one
hand, having his gun In the other.
He fell backwards some twenty feet,
one of his party seeing him fall. The
other members were not far away,
and when they reached him they
found he had been seriously injured.
The accident occurred on Thursday,
and they took him to Manhaven. a
distance of six miles, where a physi-
clan was called, but he did not regain
consciousness. and died ON Monday.
They carried the remains overland to
Lisbon, where the funeral services
were held on Wednesday.

OLD CARLSBAD.
In Ancient Times the Cure Was Some.
what Violent.

what violent.
Carlsbad, that fashionable resort in
Bohemia, is very ancient cure place.
1t has held a royal charter from Kaiser
Carl w. since 1401. History has it
that it was the mighty leap from rocky
heights to the depths below of hunt
ed deer pursued by the hounds of Kali
ser Carl ". that led to the discovery
OF the Sprudel spring and that the deer
hunting emperor was the founder of
the health resort to which he gave his
name
Originally the Carlsbad cure and the
mode of life there, a mode which re-
manned in fashion for at least two CEN
turtles, consisted solely in the use Of
the baths. This, however, was so ener-
getic that we children of the twentieth
century are overcome by feeling VI
admiration for the doctors who ordered
such cures and still greater honor for
the patients who could undergo them,
for the bath treatment was so severe
that 1t was not inaptly called the
"hautfresser," or skin eater. 1t was
only about the year 1900 that Dr. Pay
er, the town physician Of Elbogen,
near by, ordered the Carlsbad water to
be drunk as a cure. Quoting from the
publications of the period and DR.. Pay
er's remarks
81 have said that this water must be
drunk, and as hitherto it was not usu-
ally employed for drinking, but only
for bathing, this will appear new 10
many" The quantity Of the water
prescribed was in handsome proportion
to the 'skin eater"-twenty, forty and
up to sixty cups of a morning regular

A REWARD OF FAITH.
The Story of Church Twice Struck
by Lightning.


by Lightning.
A congregation in hilly district in
Ohio saws the Youths Companion,
bought a small tract of land and
erected church building upon it.
Then the question of insurance came
up. Mr. Sipes, the wealthiest membec,
who had contributed more than half
the money needed for the new struc-
ture. declared that he did not believe
In insurance. "This is the Lords
building. He'll take care of it," he
said.
His view prevailed, and there was
40 insurance. In a few weeks the
building was struck by lightning and
almost totally consumed by fire. An
other one was erected, Mr.. Sipes con-
tributing the greater portion of the
fund as before. This time the demand
was almost unanimous that it be in
sured, but Mr.. Sipes again objected
on the same ground.
'If 1t burn down again, brethren"
ne said, III agree to rebuild it my
self"
Again he carried his point. In less
than a month the new church was
struck by lightning again, and al
though strenuous efforts were made
to save it, the loss was almost total.
There must be some reason for
this, brethren" said Brother Sipes. II
am going to find out what it isl
Thereupon he employed force of
men to sink a shaft on the site of
tine twice destroyed church. Within
few days a rich vein of ore was
found, and the church properry was
sold for many times the amount
needed to buy land in another locality
and build again.
II tell you, brethren" said Brothel
Sipes, sit pays to trust the Lord He's
great deal better business manager
than anybody in this congregation"

do not care for the business at the
rate the demand has been and tell
many interesting stories Of their
trials when they have refused, as
they frequently have, to sell liquor
to people who they believe want ii
merely for beverage, and there is no
doubt the situation is full of en-
barrassments to them now that the
usual sources Of supply have been
cut of. They claim that it is not
always the man in the ordinary walks
of life who desires the liquor, and
that q good customer in the general
run OF goods in the store as frequently
gets liqnor as the man who comes I'M
to the store only once a week, and
they do not see how they are to re-
fuse q man when he makes affidavit
that the stuff is intended for medicinal
purposes only. The trade. they say IS

selves of it they will from now on re-
fuse to sell liquor to any and all
