The hanging gardens Of Babylon were
one of the seven wonders OF the woIldi
they are reproduced on a smaller scale
IN these modern days by one Joseph
Green. Of Springfield. Mass. who lives in
the Syrian quarter. He started a small
truck garden in which to raise vegeta-
bles but he found that they we're con-
fscated by his neighbors as fast as they
grew. SO then he built platform six
feet high on which he built his garden
but even this did not protect him. So
last year he erected a platform twenty
i've feet In the air. He built the edges
of his platform extending some distance
beyond the supports. so that lads who
climbed Up had their labor all ir vain.
Green reaches his garden by means OF a
ladder. which he is careful 10 lock up
when not using But only through the
device Of his hanging garden has he been
able 10 carry on agriculture without fear
of thieves.

Perhaps the most northerly gold fields
in the world are those in Lapland, where
the River IvaIo seems to be the center
OF an auriferous region, where gold
dredging operations have been carried on
for some time Diggings to the depth Of
500 feet have been completed, with a
view of finding out the real course Of
the ore. The gold discovered last year
by a company, founded IN the United
state, amounted TO only four pounds,
valued at 81 800 This was found along a
part of the Ivalo River. and the largest
nugget weighed about l23 grains. There
are three companies digging gold there
now, the latest being the Ivalo company,
organized in the United States. Within
che possessions Of this company lies Kul-
tala. which was built in 1871 by the Fin
nish government for washing gold.

A Frenchman's Continuance.

A report has just been made 10 the
Paris Academy of Science by DR.. Forth.
an eminent optician of that country.
which is attracting the attention of ply
sicians throughout the civilized world. in
asmuch as diseases of the eye has
been the most difficult to contend with in
all the range of medical and surgical
science. Dr. FoTtin's new cOntrivance in
the diagnosis of the eye Is a confirmation
Of the physical organization Of our organ
OF vision, a practical application Of which
has been the dream Of students in this
branch OF science for years. The physi-
clans who are investigating DR.. FOrtin's
theory find that the light from a mercury
vapor lamp passing through two sheets
OF blue glass and reflected into the eye
by a large lens reveals the internal con-
dition of the eye infinitely better than
ordinary white light BY placing a screen
with a pin-hole between the light and
the eye. a magnified image Of the vessel
at the back Of the Tetina, which has here
tofore been invisible, has been obtained.
This discovery in optics is regarded as
one of the most advanced steps in this
field of science, judging from the COM
ments Of eminent physicians on the re-
cent report of the French Academy.

The Pillars Samson Pulled.

The Pillars samson ruled.
Recent investigation goes to show that
strong man Samson really did pull down
the pillars of the temple at GAIA, and
allow the roof to drop on the Philistines.
Prof Stewart Macauster who is now at
work on the site of GAIA, has discover
ed the ruins of eight cities there. dating
back to a period 5000 years before Christ.
Investigation shows that the Canaanites,
who lived here, were in the habit of sac
rificing infants to some deity, the bodies
being buried under the corners of the
house-walls. It is believed these human
sacrifices We're the denominations of the
AmmOnstes, denounced in the Old Tesla
ment The excavations at GAIA show
how II was that Samson destroyed the
temple Of the Phlistines. The pillars
were of wood. and they rested on foun-
dations of stone, without being fastened
thereto, The strong man had, therefore,
merely to push these pillars off their sup
porting stones, when down would come
the whole front Of the building.

That Virginia might be thrown into
the Republican column of States is the
opinion Of Representative Slemp the
only Republican Congressman from that
State For this 10 be accomplished,
however, would necessitate the renOmi-
nation of President Roosevelt. Repre-
sentative Slemp was in Washington yes
terday. and last evening he said:
Il am not exaggerating things a biz
when 1 say that Virginia might go Re
publican If Roosevelt were nominated
for President. There is not much doubt
In my mind that Taft viii receive the
support of our delegation"
Another prominent member Of Congress
who arrived in Washington yesterday
was Representative John Dalzell, OF
Pennsylvania. He is for Senator Knox
for the Republican Presidential nomi-
nation, and believes the Philippines
should have special legislation during the
coming session Of Congress.
Il believe the islands should be given
free trade with this country on their to-
bacco and sugar" said Mr.. Dalzell. This
legislation is much needed and should
have been passed long ago"

MAJORITY OF THE
TOWNSHIPS DRY
Figures Compiled by the In
diana Bureau of Stats
tics Given Out.
DECREASE IN THE SALOONS,
OWING TO THE ADVANCE IN THE
COST OF LICENSES, THE REVE-
NUE. DERIVED WAS LARGER
THAN FORMERLY.

More than two-thirds of the town
ships of the state have no saloons,
according to figures compiled Jointly
by Miss Mary A. Stubs, chief of the
Indiana Bureau of Statistics and the
Anti-Saloon League. OF the total of
LOCI townships, only 296 have sa-
looms, according to the figures and
720 have none. The total number of
saloons granted license during 1906
was 1888, as opposed to 5,277 in 1905,
showing a decrease of twenty-four
Three entire counties were dry in
1906, according to Miss Stubbs-
Brown, Lagrange and Pike. While
there was a decrease in the number
of saloon licenses issued in 1906, the
revenue derived from such licenses in
creased. This was due to the increase
in the cost of city license. Each sa-
loon pays a regular state license of
500 and city license in addition.
In some cities licenses were placed
at a higher figure in 1906. The
amount derived from the liquor lie
enses, city and state in 1906 was ST.
AIS, $500 as compared with $1,369, IT'S

How TO Cure
Constipation

Few people altogether escape disor-
der of the bowels. You may catch cold,
over-eat, over-drink, worry too much,
not exercise enough or do a hundred and
one other things that result in constipa-
ton or costiveness. When the trouble
comes it is well to know what to do for it.
In the opinion of thousands there is no
better cure for constipation than DR..
Caldweu's Syrup Pepsin, which anyone
can obtain for so cents or 81 at drug
store. We all have constipation occa-
sionally, and the sensible thing to do IS
to have bottle OF this remedy always in the
house. You take IL at night on retiring, tor
example, and when you wake up in the morning
ut your usual hour 1t produces lis results.
Your stomach instan t1y becomes lighter. your
head clearer. your eyes brighter. you feel active
and spTy once again, your appetite has re-
turned and you ready to work with enthu-
siasm and vigor. All this may not have taken
more than dose or two. at 3 cost not to exceed
two or three cents. Can you afford TO feel bad
when you can feel good for 80 little?
DIR. Wilson Brown. of Metropolis. Ill. has no
hesitancy in saying that DR.. Caldwelps Syrup
frankly admits 20 his patients that IL they used
it when the stomach. liver or bowels got out OF
order they would have less need OF him. 1t is
without doubt the best cure for occasional or
hronic Olstipation. dyspepsia. billouSness,
iaundice. sour stomach. lazy liver. fatulency,
young. 1t is thousand times better than salts
or purgatiye waters acts gently but surely, is
pleasant to the taste. does not grippe, and cures
permanently.
Go to your druggist and get 30 cent or 81
bottle and see If our claims are not justified.
