side in graceful lines. An inner re-

on the cup, should be pink roses or
carnations, as that color is so lovely
in combination with the gray tinge of
the heather

But for the accident of being a
Democrat in Republican state, it is
almost certain he would have added
to his service as a senator, that OF
being Kansas greatest governor, and
a member of the presidents cabinet.
Starting in the Shorthorn cattle
business a third of a century ago, with
the establishment of the Linwood
herd, Co. Harris never let one year
pass without giving some important
service in the interest of his favorite
breed. At all times he was recognize
ed as it's leading exponent and au-
thority and during the last five years.
when he no longer owned a hoof, he
possibly did his greatest work, as ma
tonal commissioner for the American
Shorthorn Breeders Association.
During his last years his services and
counsel were sought by many inter =
ests, public and private, but an i'm
paired health compelled him to re-
fuse all trusts excepting those which
especially appealed to him. One of
the last of these which he undertook
was a position on the governing board
of the Kansas Agricultural college.
Col. Harris was born in Virginia in
1841, and saw three years service as
an officer in the Confederate army.
Soon after the war he came west as a
civil engineer. For over forty years
he has been a citizen of Kansas and
identified with many OF the best
chapters of it's history. The Breeder g

with the years that his work in the
United States senate lifted Kansas
back into national esteem she had
we'll nigh lost, Col. Harris has been
looked upon as above party lines IN
politics and broader than any special
interest in business life. He became
the Vests ideal as a citizen and a
public servant and the confidential
friend and advisor of ONE Of the

A. Harris and the country's loss is
even much more far-reaching. Colonel
Harris died in Chicago, Monday, at

as the immediate cause of death, came

Waldron, Ark, Oct. 9, 1909.

Waldron, Ark, Oct. 9, 1909.
Mr.. VIM. Brooks, Prop,
Brooks Med. Co., kussellville, Ark.
MY Dear Sir: For several weeks
have been intending to write you in re-
gard to your Baby Balm.
If you remember, when yon vera
here this summer ! told you that our
baby was sick. He was then having
his third attack of bowel trouble this
summer. They were very severe.
The first two were exceedingly alarm
ing and | suggested to my wife taat
we try your remedy, but she was pre-
JUDGED against patent medicine, so
was |, but knowing you, gave me
confidence to some extent, pardon the
modified clause
In the last case however my wife
agreed to try your Baby Balm.
went to my doctor and told him that |
wanted to try it. He said that he did
not know what 1t contained but to
give it trial. We d!d, and it worked
like charm. Now my wife will not
be without it and the baby has not had
a bad case with his bowels since we
began using it.
You know how parents are about the
baby. We watch him and if any
trouble is indicated Brooks Baby
Bowel Balm is put into service prompt
y and it has not failed to keep him
straight so far.
| have been at the drug store here
on different occasions when parties
come in for baby medicine and just
can't land don't try to keep from
"buttin in" and telling them to get
your Baby Balm. Just night before
last man came into the drug store
here to get badly medicine My wife
says tell him to get Baby Balm, !"
but he had already learned its worth
and that was what he was after.
You yourself know that have al
ways found objection to the publishing
of patent med cine advertising in my
paper and | never thought | would be
person to write a recommendation
for patent mediciae, but could
hardly resist IN this case, since feeling
the great benefits received from your
Baby Balm.
Very respectfully yours,
W. l.. Baker
The above is one one of the thou
sands of unsolicited lerters received in
support of Baby Balm and this baby Is
one of the 50, 00G Arkansas Babies test
ing Baby Balm last year, among which
was not a single failure or complaint
Mr.. Baker is Editor and Proprietor
of the Advance Reporter of Waldron,
Ark, one of the largest and best
weekly newspapers in the state His
letter is given space because of his
known prejudice against patent medi-
cines.
The manufactures offer $1,000 for a
formula or prescription producing a
greater percent of cures than Baby
Balm. They also offer 500 for a case
of bowel infection in children that will
not yield to Baby Balm if given under
specific directions from beginning.

Whistling and Weeping Trees.

Among the cTiosities OF tree life Is
the sofar, or whistling tree of Nubfa
When the winds blow over this tree
it gives out flutalike sounds. playing
away to the wilderness for hours at a
time strange, weird melodies. 1t is
the spirit of the dead singing among
the branches. The natives say, but the
scientific white man say that tie
sounds are due to a myriad of small
holes which an insect bores in til
spines of the branches.
The weeping tree of the Canary
islands is another arboreal freak. This
tree in the driest weather Will rain
down showers from its leaves, and the
natives gather up the water from the
pool formed at the foot of the trunk
and find it pure and fresh. The tree
exudes the water from innumerable
pores at the base of the leaves.
