the country's financial system would

Holds Off A Burglar.
How An Indiana Woman Was Able To
Stand the Severe Strain.

Mrs. Johanna Foegely, of South Bond,
Ind, recently passed through most thrill
ling experience, which would be severe
strain upon any person and especially 80
for a woman of 70 years of age. An Indi-
ana paper contains long and interesting
account of it, saying that the burglar would
soon have ransacked the house had it not
been for the GOODNESS and presence of mind
of Mrs. Foegely, who cleverly diverted his
attention, even while the burglar kept q
revolver at her head, commanding her to
"keep quiet or will send a bullet through
you," until he feared to remain longer.
This is the Mrs. Foegely who was perma-
nently relieved of dangerous Kidney and
Bladder disease in 1900, by the prompt use
of DR.. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy;
and because she possessed this good health
and strength she was able to withstand the
shock of her recent experience Here is the
first statement Mrs. Foegely gave, in 1900
"For over three years suffered from the mos
painful disease In my Kidneys and Bladder Othe

MAPLE A VALUABLE NATIVE
HARDWOOD.

Though at one time in the early
history of the country an average of
5000 maple trees were destroyed in
clearing the ordinary New York or
Pennsylvania farm, maple is today, &C
cording to the department of agricul-
ture, one of the most widely used and
valuable native hardwoods.
A bulletin on the uses of maple,
just issued by the department, states
that the wood finds place in an enormous
number of articles in daily use, from
rolling pins to pianos and organs. 1t is
one of the best woods for flooring, and
is always favorite material for the
floors of roller skating Kinks and bowl
ing alleys. 1t leads all other woods as
a material for shoe lasts, the demand
for which in Massachusetts alone ex-
ceeds 19 million board feet annually.
Sugar maple stands near the top of
the list of furniture woods in this
country. The so-called "birdseye"
effect, the department explains, is
probably dne to buds which for some
reason can not force their way through
the bark, but which remain just be
meath it year after year. The young
wood is disturbed each succeeding sea-
son by the presence of the bud and
grows around it in fantastic forms
which are exposed when the saw cuts
- 81, Oh 81
Maple, the department goes on to say,
is one of the chief woods used for agricul-
tural implements and farm machinery,
being employed because of its strength
and hardness. All kinds of wooden
ware are made of maple, which holds
important rank also in the manufacture
of shuttles, spools, and bobbins. 1t
completes with black gum for first place
in the manufacture of rollers of many
kinds, from those employed in house
moving to the less massive ones used on
lawn mowers. Athletic goods, s,hoo
supplies, brush backs, pulleys, type
cases and crutches are a few of the
other articles for which maple is in de.
mand.
Seven species of maple grow in the
United States, of which sugar maple
sometimes called hard maple, is the
most important The total cut of maple
in the United States annually amounts
to about /, $50, 600, 600 feet. Nearly one
half is produced by Michigan, with Wis
consin, Pennsylvania, New York, anc
West Virginia following in the order
named. Sugar maple, says the depart
ment, is in little danger of disappearing
from the American forests, for it is {
strong, vigorous, aggressive tree, anc
though not fast grower is able to hole
its own. In Michigan it is not unusua
for maple to take possession of lane
from which pine or hardwoods have
been cut clean, and from New England
