Consumption Often Develops
From Pneumonia

Consumption reaGily attacks those who
have had Pneumonia. Many sufferers
from tuberculosis give a history Of bav-
ing had Pneumonia. The lungs thus weak
ened are more easily attacked by the
germs that cause Consumption.
For all those with weak lungs" espe-
cially those who have had Pneumonia,
Eekman's Alternative is the appropriate
remedy. Cures of Consumption are ac-
complfshed by Eckman's Alternative. But
take 1t in time. There Is no wisdom IN
waiting until Tuberculosis is established.

ness comes, A remarkable recovery fol-

FiENDISH MOTHER
STUFFED CRYING BABE
INTO HOT BLAST OVEN.

Halifax, N. S., Feb. 16.-eT put
the baby in the stove and burned
1t. I'm sorry now. but / did it
when the feeling came over me-
These were the words OF Mrs. Nc
Carron, wife of James McCarron
OF this city, in ~confessing to the
police that she put her hve-weeks'
old child in the hot blast stove in
her house and burned it alive.
She said she did this nine days
ago, and spread the story that the
child had been kidnapped from the
cradle. Mrs. McCarron is locked
up on a charge of murder. Since
the disappearance Of the child De-
tectives Hanrahan and Kennedy
have been working on the case.
They early became convinced that
the child had been burned alive.
The woman was arrested this aft
ernoon on suspicion, and an hour
or two afterward she confessed.
When the police visited the wo-
mans house in the north end the
day the child disappeared they
examined the hot blast stove from
which the ashes had been remov-
ed. 1t was then cold, but that was
four hours afterwards. The ash
barrel was searched and little
bones We're found there, whether
human Or not remains to be Prov
en-. When the husband came home
at noon the woman was rocking
the cradle which now, according
to her confession, had been empty
for an hour. Mrs. McCarron's
reputation was not good, but the
only theory Of the police as to
motive is that she was mentally
deranged when she thrust her
crying baby into the fire.

Adams County Farmer Only Has

Hettinger, N. D., Feb. 16.-Dairying
possibilities, even on q very small
scale, r shown by T. E. Hayes Of
Ellington, this county, who keeps but
three cows and provides a living for
himself n his family the year
around. The owner of this very small
dairy has facts and figures which show
that he secures a great enough rev.
enue from the COWS to provide his
family Of four with the necessities of
life at all periods Of the year, and that
he is not dependent upon good or bad
years for his livelihood.
Mr.. Hayes also owns the first silo
that has been constructed in this Sec
ton of the state. 1t is a crude affair,
built by the farmer himself, but large
enough to hold about eight tons of
fodder, which is quite sufficient for
the winter season, or for that part of
the winter months when the cattle
cannot be ranged.

farmers in fathering such a move

and a larger yield per acre, are the
three objects of the club. and it will
