Rumors from Baltimore are persist
ent that preliminary steps have been
taken to form a syndicate to under
write $2O,0O0,0O0 of Seaboard Air Line
railway unified and refunding per
cent bonds. The price, according to
the story, will be so net to the COM
pany, making the amount realized
$16,000,000
OF the proceeds S14,651,O 900 will be
used to retire that amount of collater-
al trust 5 per cent bonds which ma
|ture on May next, leaving $1,349,000
cash for corporate needs. Interest
upon the $2O,0O0,O0O 4 per cent bonds
would be 100000 a year, against
IS732,550 upon the present outstanding
collateral trust bonds; but allowing
interest at 5 per cent upon the ST.

Attacks Like Ulcers.

In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack disease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply so fast the little fighters are
overcome. Then see pimples, boils,
eczema, salt-rheum and sores multiply
and strength and appetite fail. This
condition demands Electric Bitters to
regulate stomach, liver and kidneys
and to expel poisions from the blood.
They are the best blood purifier"
writes c. T. Budahan, of Tracy, Calf,

red blood, strong nerves and build up
your health. Try them. soc. at Tyd-

HANsBRoUoH's BOOK SOON OUT
First Edition Expected OF the Press
About the First of May.

| . i
Concerning .The Second Amend
ment, y the novel from the pen of form
er United States Senator H. G. Hans
brough, the Minneapolis Tribune has
this to say:
| Minneapolis has been chosen as the
birthplace Of the first political novel
written by former Senator Hansbrough
of North Dakota, man who has been
educated in the school of politics
through twenty years service in con.
gress. The Hudson Publishing COM
pany Of this city will bring out the
work. Printers and binders, also Min
neapolis firms, now have the manu-
script, and the illustrating is done by
Minneapolis artist. The title Of the
story is "The Second Amendment
Its author declares that he intended
to write political novel, and yet it
fairly melts with romantic lovemaking.
The story is set amidst thrilling scenes,
the first of which opens in the United
States senate, where Mr.. Hansbrough
has served for twenty years.
Absolutely accurate portrayal of dra-
matte situations in this very staid and
dignied body has been of much con-
cern to number Of prominent writer's
of fiction; yet the author of "The Sec
ond Amendment has managed the ear
ly chapters of his story to plunge the
senate into lugubrous plight, from
which, out of downright fear and ner-
rousness, it does not emerge until
eight months later. 1t is doubtful if
anyone who has not seen actual service
in the world S greatest legislative body
could draw the picture he has drawn of
it.
The plot revolves about group Of
strange, yet not impossible events and
includes an array of interesting life
like characters that belong peculiarly
to these stirring modern times. Out of
the maelstorm of human endeavor, of
heart throbbing impulse, of acts that
are good and deeds taht are bad, a new
political party with ringing title is
evolved, also a paramount issue that
appeals to both the reason and consc-
ence, and which greatly overshadows
the extenuatcry pop-gun panaceas Of
the preesnt day. AS the reader is car.
ried along on the tide of emotion he
will laugh, he will weep, all the while
marveling at the checkered institution
Of politics.
The story ends in tremendous
climax that leaves an impression not
soon to be forgotten.
The argument is altruistic. Indeed
the name Of the new political entity
which succeeds those that, as many
believe, are now hanging on the rag
ged edge of despair and exploded use
fitness, is the Altrueratic parity" ;
word that the author has coined tt

Deep or Shallow Seeding.

Dig up the grain plants and you will
find that they form their roots at the
same depth whether planted deep or
shallow. When sown too deep the plant
sends up growth till within about an
inch Of the surface and there starts the
real root system. It takes work to
send up this growth so the more shallow
the seed can be sown, the better. A
good seed bed should be fairly compact,
the more compact it is the nearer the
surface the moisture comes.
