How Chinese Are Buried.

There are no cemeteries in China,
though graves may be met with ev-
erywhere in the land Of the Celestials.
The Chinese common people bury
their dead on their own ground or
by the wayside, so that one cannot
travel in any direction without en-
countering a grave. The graves are
sacred and must not be disturbed.
They are carefully attended by the
living, every year being visited by,
votive candles and fireworks, meat
and wine. The foreign element per-
sistently seeks to introduce. railways
into China, but to go in anything like
a straight line a railway, no matter
where laid, would have to run over
thousands of graves. TO the Chinese
this is dissertation, and they will die
before they permit it. In some meas
ure this accounts for the %antipathy
of the Chinaman to foreigners.-Ar-

Has Proved a Great Success-Thou-
sands Say It's the Best Thing
They Ever Grew.
The Wonderberry or Sunberry, the
marvellous garden fruit originated by
Luther Burbank, and introduced by
John Lewis Childs. the well-known
Scotsman, of Floral Park, N. Y, has
proved a great success all over the
country. Thousands Of people say 1t
is the best thing they ever grew.
Mr.. John Burroughs, the we'll
known author, Naturalist and bosom
friend of Theodore Roosevelt, says 1t
is the most delicious pie berry he ever
tasted, q a marvellous cropper.
A Director Of tho New York Agri-
cultural Experiment Station says it
fruits a%bundantly even in pure sand.
IN the short season of Northwestern
Canada it is a goGsend, and fruits long
after frost has killed most garden
truck.
D. S. Hall, Wichita, Kan, says
thirty people grew it there last season
with perfect satisfaction.
X. S. Enochs, Hammond, La, says
1t yields $3.50 worth of fruit per acre
with him. Mrs. j. H. Powers, 4732
Kenwood avenue, Chicago, raised
enough berries on a space 4z10 feet
to supply herself and friends.
J. P. Swallow, Kenton, Ohio, says
Its equal for all purposes does not ex-
list.
Rev. H. B. Sheldon, Pacific Grove,
CAL, says he likes the berries served
In any and every way.
W.T.. Davis, Enon, Va, says it Is
true to description in every way, and
fruits in three months from seed.
Judge Morrow, Of U. S. Circuit
Court, says the Wonderberry Is sim
ply delicious raw or cooked.
Mr.. Childs exhibited n plant five
months old bearing 1875 berries
which measured about eight quarts.
Mrs. Hattie Vincent, Hayden, New
Mexico, says it stands long, hard
droughts Of that climate and fruits
abundantly all summer.
It is certainly the most satisfactory
garden fruit and the greatest Novelty
ever introduced.

Leg a Mass of Itching Humor.

About seven years ago a small
abrasion appeared on my right leg
just above my ankle. 1t irrftated me
so that | began to scratch 1t and 1t
began to spread until my leg from my
ankle to the knee was one solid scale
like a scab. The irritation was always
worse at night and would not allow
me to sleep, or my wife either, n
1t was completely undermining our
health. | lost fifty pounds in weight
and was almost out of my mind with
pain and chagrin as no matter where
the irritation came, st work, on the
street or in the presence Of company,
I would have to scratch it until l had
the blood running down into my shoe.
/ simply cannot describe my suffer-
ing during those seven years. The
pain, modification, loss of sleep, both
to myself and wife is simply indescrfb-
able on paper and one has to ex-
perience 1t to know what it is.
II tried all kinds Of doctors and
remedies but / might as we'll have
thrown my money, down a sewer.
They would dry up for a little while
and fill me with hope only to break
out again just as bad If not worse. l
had given UP hope of ever being cured
when I was induced by my wife to
give the. Cuticura Remedies a trial.
After, taking the Cuticura Remedies
for a little while I began to see a
change, and after taking a dozen bot
ties Of Cuticura Resolvent, in conjunc-
ton with the Cuticura Soap and Cuti-
cufa Ointment, the trouble had en-
tirely disappeared and my leg was as
fine as the day l was born. Now after
a lapse of six months with no signs of
a recurrence / feel perfectly safe in
extending to you my heartfelt thanks
for the good the Cuticura Remedies
have done for me. shall always rec

fee did for him:
my wife and ] drank our first cup
Of Postum a little over two years ago,
and we have used 1t ever since, to the
entire exclusion of tea and coffee. 1t
happened in this way:
about three and a half years ago
1 had an attack of pneumonia, which
left a memento in the shape of dys-
pepsia, or, rather, to speak more cor
rectly, neuralgia of the stomach. MY
cup of cheer had always been coffee
or tea, but ! became convinced, after
a time, that they aggravated my. stom-
ach trouble. l happened to mention
the matter to my grocer n day and
he suggested that l give Postum a
trial.
Next day it came, but the cook
made the mistake Of not boiling it
sufficiently, and we did not like II
much. This was, however, soon rem
edied, and now we like it SO much
that we will never change back. Pos,
tum, being a food beverage instead OF
a drug, has been the ear of curing
my stomach trouble, l verify believe!
for | am a we'll man to-day and have
used no other remedy. :.
MY work as chief bookkeeper in
our Co.'S branch house here is of a
very combining nature. During my
coffee-drinking days l was subject to
nervousness and the blues in addi-
ton to my sick spells. These have
left ME since I began using Postum,

it to those whose work confines them
