Killing weeds by spraying: To
make the spraying solution, empty a
UNDERGROUND sack of sulphate of
iron into a ffty-gallon barrel; fill to
the chine with water and stir with a
hoe for q few minutes until dissolved.
Strain through several thicknesses of
cheesecloth tackled over manhole of
the spraying machine, producing a
real mist free from drops. Use about
fifty gallons to the acre, and spray
on a bright, warm day. or on a dark,
damp day; it does not matter so long
as rain does not come within eighteen
or twenty hours. This spray will not
harm grain crops, and will kill wild
mustard and various other weeds

An adults food that can save a
baby proves itself to be nourishing
and easily digested and good for big
and little folks. A Brooklyn man
says:
when baby was about eleven
months old he began to grow thin
and pale. This was, at first, attrib-
uteG to the heat and the fact that
his teeth were coming, but, in reality,
the poor little thing was starving, his
mothers milk not being sufficient
n%ourishment.
Zone day after he had cried bitter
ly for an hour, I suggested that my
wife try him on Grape-Nuts. She
SOAKED two teaspoonfuls in a saucer
with a little sugar and warm milk.
This baby ate so ravenously that she
fixed a second which he likewise fin
ished.
"It was not many days before he
forgot all about being nursed, and
has since lived almost exclusively on
Grape-Nuts. To-day the boy is strong
and robust, and as cute a mischief
maker as a thirteen months old baby
is expected to be.
1--WE have put before him other
foods, but he will have none Of ther.,
evidently preferring to stick to that
which did him so much good-his
old friend Grape-Nuts.
"Use this letter any way you wish,
for my wife and l can never praise
Grape-Nuts enough after the bright
ness 1T has brought to our house,
hold"
Grape-Nuts is not made for a baby
food, but ezperience with thousands
of babies shows e to be among the
best. If not entirely the best in use.
Being a scientific preparation of Ma
lures grains, it is equally effective
as a body and brain builder for
%grown-ups.

His Hands Cracked Open.

IL am a man seventy years old. My
hands we're very sore and cracked
open on the insides for over q year
with large sores. They would crack
open and bleed, itch, burn and ache
so that l could not sleep and could do
but little work. They were 80 bad
that. l could not dress myself in the
morning. They would bleed and the
blood dropped on the floor. I called
on two doctors, but they did me no
good. 1 could get nothing to do any
good till l got the Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. About a year ago
my daughter got a cake of C%uticura
Soap and one box Of Cuticura Oint-
ment and In one week from the time
I began to use them my hands were
all healed up and they have not been
a mite sore since. l would not be
without the Cuticura Remedies.
They also cured a bad sore on the
hand Of one Of my neighbours chill
dren, and they think very highly Of
the Cuticura Remedies. John w.

A BOLD, BAD MAN.
Undertakes a Hold.Up With a Spoon
for a Waapor,

for a Weapon.
German.fried potatoes were on thu
menu of the Kenton family, Of 1913
the Paseo, last night, and o. G. Ken
ton, father Of the two children who
constitute the rest Of the family, was
in the kitchen at his twice-a-day oc-
cupation Of cook. The children had
left the house for a moment. Mr..
Kenton was alone.
The knob of the kitchen door turn
ed and the door swung open. A man,
determined Of face and rather heavy
of body, came from the darkness of
out-of-doors and the kitchen light
was reflected from a shiny object he
held in his hand.
Hold up your hands," the man
from without ordered in a stern
voice, and white the German-fries
spluttered, UP went the hands OF
Kenton. The CLINT Of light on the
shiny object sent them there.
"Now, where's your money!" the
intruder added.
At first Kenton did not answer.
Then he thought OF the pay envelope
he might miss later in the week, and
decided to argue a bit.
"Now, looky here" he said, I'm
an old man, nigh On to ffty-four. You
aren't going to hold me up, are you?"
where's your money! insisted the
other.
Kerton argued some more. Then
his eyes travelled to the shiny object
again. Incidentally the eyes grew
larger for Kenton saw that what he
believed to be a revolver was only a
spoon. table size.
WELL" said Kenton, with more
confidence, moving toward an inner
door, "if you're going to act that way
about 1t, I'll get my revolver"
The hand that held the spoon trav-
eled to a hip pocket that was empty.
A second later where the bold, bad
man had stood there remained only
emptiness and an open dooe. Tx
"hold-up" was over and Kenton was
once more attending to the German
tries.-Kansas City Star

.FAIRCHILD HAS
NO FREE HAND
Postponement of Sale of Kappa
Leases Will Not Have Any
Ultimate Effect.

The postponement Of the sale Of the
Kappa lease win not change the stu
alton in any respect so far as the
ultimate result is concerned, neither
viii it give Fairchild "free hand
without regard for the terms of the
solemn agreement that formed large
part of the discussion of the confer
ence that lasted at the Capitol for a
period of several weeks"
Governor Frear stated yesterday aft
ernoon that the only change in the
original plans will be that the sale of
the leases will have to be submitted
first to the public land commission and
then, if the commission approves of it,
advertised for sixty days, 1t is true
enough that Faircbild is the only one
who is liable to bid, but this will not
enable him to take the leases at his
own figure, even If he were inclined to
do so, for an upset price will be fixed,
and this upset price will probably be
the same as the sale price already
agreed upon by Fairchild and the ad-
ministration.
The public lands commission, to
which the sale of the leases must first
be submitted, has not yet been APP
pointed by the Governor but he says
he will appoint it before he leaves'f for
the mainland June s. As the sale Of
the leases must be advertised for sixty
days, the Governor will probably be
back in Honolulu before it takes place.
