BROMHALL ON EUROPEAN CROPS
oIOnhaH OF Liverpool, who con-
stantiy holds under his finger the agri-
cultural pulse of Europe. makes the
lolioWing summary of European crop
condltions which cannot fail to be of
interest to the people or Kansas and
America:
United Kingdom-The indicated
yieid OF wheat Will show a shortage of
100000 bushels as compared with
last year. Other crops. show an inn
proVement, owing to rains. France
severe local storms are reported &C
compahled with much damage. 1t is
expected, however, that the crop will
pe iair one. Germany-The outlook
lor the wheat crop continues good.
Inc outlook for oats ana potatoes has
improved as result OF the recent
rains. Hungary-The first samples of
new wheat show a gooG quality. 1t is
IePorted from several reliable sources
.hdt the recent official estimate is too
low, and the crop will show larger
imam expected. Roumanfa-Harvest-
ing returns are genersIfy unSatisfac-
tory, with important districts showing
Poor Yields. There are complaints
nearo regarding the outlook for corn.
ESussla-The general opinion is that
me exportable surplus of wheat for
.He new crop will not exceed that of
last year. The sales of harvesting ma
cLlnery are extremely small and some
that were contracted ror have been
cancelled. The weather in the east
ern districts continues dry which is
very unfavorable. The condition of
corn Is excellent. Italy-Thes outlook

sstihe is general in the south and

- COUNTRY BOYS.
The Newark News has figured out
tnat country boys succeed better than
CITY boys, not because thew are so
much better. but because they have
constitution which comes nearer
seaHuIhg the strain of modern dissi-
Patlon than the city boy. And it points
out the fact that should not be lost
slgnt OF, that dissipation doesn't neces-
sariiy nave to have any acquaintance
with bottle. The man who eats too
iIuch ana too rapidly. and who stays
Up la.e at night to eat more. although
ne can't remember when he was hung
ry, is dissipating just as surely as the
man who has to be sent home in a
mack because he is unable to walk and
ask questions. The grub dissipation
may be more respectable and slower
but it will get you Just the same he
fore you are due to go if YOU ONLY
eat when really hungry.-Atchison

Chinese Ideas of Anatomy.

Indianapolis News.
Chinese Ideas of Anatomy.
One of the most curious of the Chi
nese ideas of anatomy is the belief in
the connection between certain inter-
nal organs and the thoughts and pas
sions. Thus, the heart and pit of the
stomach are regarded as the seat of
ideas and delights; the soul resides in
the liver, from which emanate all
good and noble purposes; and in the
gall bladder is contained such cour-
age as the individual may possess.
me brain is never mentioned in
Chinese medical works. The lungs
thorax, and consist of six lobes, four
on one side and two on the other.
sounds proceed from holes in them"
Native doctors pretend that they
can determine the nature of each all
ment. its treatment, and prognosis by
the pulse alone. Du Halde, a Jesuit
writer. includes a translation of one
of the standard Chinese works on the
pulse in his books on China. 1t ap-
pears from this that there are three
pulses in each arm, each of which is
again subdivided into an inner and an
outer pulse, making twelve pulses in
all.
OF each pulse there are nineteen
varieties, and every pulse is connected
with and shows the condition of some
internal organ. Those on the left arm,
for example, are connected with the
heart, small intestines, liver, gall blad-
der, kidneys and bladder, respectively.
The six pulses of each arm may vary
at the same time and are supposed to
be affected by the season.
1t is amusing to read the descrip-
ton of the varieties of pulses that in
dictate the approach of death. The dis
ease is likely to terminate fatally If
any of the following symptoms are
present: If the pulse frisks like a fish
that dives every minute and then
comes up so slowly that one would
| think she is held by the tail. and yet
| makes her escape; il it bubbles like
water over a great fire in the morning;
| if it seems like a fish whose head is
stopped and cannot move, but risks
with it's tail; If by the hardness Of its
beats it resembles bullet or stone or
dried earth shot out of a cross-bow,
or if it resembles the pace of frog or
toad embarrassed in the weeds, or the
hasty peck of a bird.-Shanghai Cor
respondence in Chicago News.
New Way of Catching Fish.
While Earl Stone and Paris Hatta-
baugh, nine and nineteen years old.
respectively were fishing in Richland
creek, at the old water mill, one mile
east of town, yesterday, they found a
large catfish fastened between a log
of the milldam and stone. 1t had
run into the trap during the recent
high water, and as the water receded
it was unable oaget loose. 1e
How to land the fish was question,
for the oys reasoned that the fish, as
soon as dislodged. would become I'M
manageable; but they were equal to
the emergency. While Paris sat on
the fish Earl took the shoestring band
from his straw hat, put it through the
gills of the fish, and then the two
dragged it ashore. In triumph the
boys brought their catch, the largest
Of the season. to town. and found its
weight to be thirty-three pounds

REPUBLICAN
STATE TICKET
IS THE STRONGEST EVER PUT
UPBY THAT PARTY--DON-
Ian WILL LEAD PAR
TY TO VICTORY

The Republican State conven.
tion was held in Helena last
Thursday and Friday under the
most favorable and auspicioua
conditions. Delegates were
present from every nook and
corner of the state and everyone
was most enthusiastic for the
success of the republican ticket
this fall.
Senator Ed. Donlan of Mis-
soula leads the ticket with the
nomination for governor, and all
the positions are filled with men
selected for their qualities as
public servants.
Good natured rivalry was al.
ways evident, an appreciation OF
the seriousness and Importance
of the work of naming the men
who, for the next four years,
will man Montana's ship OF
state. Senator Carter made a
tireless chairman and Fred Haz
elbaker an efficient secretary.
The surprises on the ticket were
the selections of Dan Boyle, for
so long division superintendent
of the Northern Pacific at Liy-
ingston, and of the choice of El-
mer E. Esselstyne of Carbon as
treasurer.
The honors were we'll divided,
Silver Bow got the five most
cherished officers, two of them
presidential electors. .
Missoula got the governor,
Deer Lodge county the lieuten-
ant governorship, Lewis and
Clark the attorney general.
So much for the west side,
Northern Montana's share of the
spoils is the congressman, G. N.
Pray of Chouteau county.
Eastern Montana gets the su.
perintendent of instruction for
Gallatln. judge of the supreme
court. four-year term railroad
commissioner. Park gets the
six-year term commissioner and
Carbon gets the treasurer. Vel.
lowstone gets an elector.
Everyone seemed pleased.
Chairman Carter thanked the
convention and the convention
thanked him.
In conclusion Mr.. Carter ad.
monished them to carry every
county.
