Oxen In Massachusetts.

j. D. Avery of Shelburne Falls is
surely the king of oxen in this part
of the country. At the Brattleboro fair
recently he has had the most wonder
full exhibit of oxen, and in all the tests
of strength for pulling heavy boat
loads of stone his oxen have cleaned
the decks. One of the secrets in these
tests is the way. the oxen are man
aged and driven. Mr.. Avery does his
own driving and is a master at the
business. The other day again, as the
day before, he cleared everything be-
fore him in the OK pulling ring by TAX
ing all three prizes in the free for all
class and first and second in the $500
class.
The load drawn in the $500 class
was about 9,100, while the veteran OK
man made an exhibition pull of nine
feet in the free for all class with a
fancy pair of Devons with a load of
1928, which is the biggest load
drawn at Brattleboro since he pulled
over $1,000 with his famous pair of
Holsteins.-H Hampshire Gazette.

Daniel Eahrennelt

In view of the abnormal weather
which we have had this summer we
think tribute of respect should be
paid to the memory of Gabriel Daniel
Fahrenheit, who was born on Septem-
Der 16, either in 1876 or 1740, it is
hard to say which. Before his day
several attempts had been made to
measure the heat level, not the heat,
by tubes containing oil of spirits of
wine, but it lay with a bankrupt mer-
chant of Dantzig to- show how the feat
could be successfully accomplished.
Tie first thermometers were made
with spirits of wine; but the ingeni-
GUS Gabriel soon adopted mercury as
his medium, and so it has remained
to this day. His instruments speedily
became known throughout the world,
and though more rational method of
graduation has since been adopted, the
popular mind still clings to the Fab
renheit scale. Our own Royal society
thought highly of this humble inven-
tor and acknowledged his genius by
making him one of its fellows. To the
Transactions" of the society he con-
tributed several papers.-Pan Mall
Gazette.

FRICHTFUL
SUFFERING OF
A WOMAN
Mrs. Garrett, Of YaRdervOOrt, De-
scribes How She Suffered and
How She Got Relief.

Vandervoort, Ark.--Mrs. Dora Gar
rett, of this place, says: Il suffered
every month, for year, and got
weaker every day. My head and back
would ache so bad, could not sit up.
/ tried all kinds of medicines, and
they all failed to cure me. Then my
mother told me to take Cardui. When
had taken one bottle, was able to
do all of my work, can recommend
Cardui to be the greatest woman's
remedy in the world. have used it
and know what it will do
When woman is ill, the real trou-
BILE is generally some arrangement OF
her constitution, and the headache,
and backache, ETC., are merely symp-
toms of her womanly weakness. The
proper treatment, therefore, is Cardui,
the womans tonic. No other medi-
cine, or tonic, has exactly the same
results as Cardui. No other has the
record of so many years of successful
use in cases of womanly ailments.
If Mrs. Garrett had taken Cardui
sooner, she might have been spared
the long sickness and much suffering.
A few doses of Cardui at the right
time will often save serious suffering
and prevent a long sickness. Don't
delay. Begin to take Cardui at once.

When ErIendshIp counts.

The doors of the deformed man are
always locked, and the key is on the
outside. He may have treasures Of
charm inside, but they will never be
revealed unless the person outside CO.
operates with him in unlocking the
door. A friend becomes, to a much
greater degree than with the ordinary
man, the indispensable means of dis
covering ones own personality. One
only exists, so to speak, with friends.
1t is easy to see how hopelessly such
a sensitiveness incapacitates a man
for business, professional or social
life, where the hasty and superficial
impression is everything, and disas
ter is the fate of the man who has
not all the treasures of his personal
ity in the front window where they
can be readily inspected and ap
praised. From the September At

Riqht on the Job,

At the time Dewey captured the
Philippine Islands there was only one
lighthouse in operation in the Philip
pine waters-that on Cape Melville,
Balabac island. south of the island OF
Palawan and marking the entrance be-
tween the China sea and the Sulu sea.
AS is the custom in time Of war. the
Spanish authorities had ordered all
lighthouses to have their lights eXtin-
guished when it was discovered that
an attack on Manila was threatened
by the American navy. 1t appears that
this order was carried out at all other
places except at the lighthouse men,
toned above, where the order was
never received. The keeper Of this
light kept his light burning up to June
80, 1899. without assistance, and was
paid for his services from May /, 1899,
to that date by the Philippine govern
ment.-Philippines Monthly.
