To Put an End to All
Superfluous Hair
Advice to Ladies Who Have
Been Deceived and
Disappointed
By a Specialist

Thousands of ladies and even young
girls have learned to their sorrow that
1t does not pay to trifle with hairy
growths on the face and arms by try
ing to remove them with worthless
pastes, powders and liquid depilatories
that smell awfully and burn like mad.
A well-known woman who succeeded
In entirely and painlessly destroying
all trace of her hairy growth has ar
ranged to put on public sale the scien-
tifc discovery that cured her after ali
else failed. 1t Is a simple. ineXpen-
sive, harmless and amazingly effective
treatment which she has called Mrs
Osgood's Wonder. 1t never fails to re-
move all trace of superfiuous hair abso-
lutely without pain or injury to the
skin or complexion and In surpris-
ingly large number of cases has killed
the hair roots so 1t has never returned.
You can get 1t from Kennedy's Medi-
cine Store or any up-to-date druggist
or department store, on the guarantee
of money back if it fails. Ask for 1t
by name, Mrs. osgoods Wonder"
Signed guarantee with every package.
If you have tried all the advertised
depilatories in vain and want sure,
quick results, this new method de-
serves your immediate attention. Let
me caution you. however, not to apply
Mrs. Osgood's Wonder to hair growths
you do not wish totally destroyed. =

BEST LENGTHS FOR SlLAGE
Question ls One Upon Which Much
Difference Of Opinion 10 Mani
tested Among Farmers.

By II. II. KILDEE. Iowa Experiment
Stauon)
In response TO inquiry as to the
best lengths for cutting corn to put
into the silo. Professor Kildee OF the
Iowa Agricultural college, makes the
following reply:
The question as TO the proper
lengths in which corn should be cut
when put into the silo is one upon
which much difference Of opinion is
manifested. Some advocate as long
as one and one-fourth inches. others
less than one-half inch or approxi-
mately one-fourth inch, and the ma
iority intermediate lengths. The short
cuts. such as the one-fourth and one
half inch, require more power, but
insure more palatable silage. result
Ing in less waste in feeding, and make
Il easy to pack It thoroughly at time
Of filling. This packing helps to elm
mate the air, thus improving the
quality, and makes it possible to put a
greater quantity Of corn in the silo.
II is more essential that thoroughly
mature corn be cut into shorter
lengths than corn that is more imma-
ture and succulent, as much Of the
dry portions will be wasted by ami.
mails on full feed II not cut into small
pieces. When one considers the mat.
ter from all standpoints, It is evident
that the common practice OF cutting
the corn into one-half TO three-fourths
inch lengths is the preferable one
The writer has made It q practice to
cut the corn into three-fourthsinch
lengths. but realizes that when corn
becomes dry the one-half inch cut is
more desirable II the correspondent
wishes a shorter cut for the upper
part Of the silo ! would recommend
the upper third be filled with one-hali
inch cut.

ARRANGEMENT OF THE HIVES
When Placed Too Close Together
Foul Brood viii Breed Through
Agency Of Young Bees.

It is strange what a difference OF
opinion there is concerning so simple
a matter as the arrangement of hives.
Some beekeepers place them not more
than six inches apart Our own ex-
perience is that flve feet is not too
far. We have repeatedly noticed that
when hives are placed so close togeth-
er large numbers OF bees are killed
when the returning swarm enters. in
considerable numbers. the neighbor-
ing hives, says a writer in Wisconsin
Agriculturist. And then. too, there
are losses OF queens when fertilization
takes place. And last and most i'm
portant OF all. II there is foul brood in
the apiary II will spread through the
agency of the young bees. particularly
on windy days when these youngsters.
which are always accepted, are blown
away from their own to other en-
frances. II you must place hives so
close together, face the first south and
the next to the north. Facing to the
north will not be injurious TO the bees
as so many imagine. In the above we
have overlooked one thing. viz. that
when hives are placed so close to-
gether, young queens, returning from
their wedding flights, get into the
wrong entrances and are killed.

fective clearness, Germany abnegates
all rights but force"
Want General DUPONT AS
NATIONAL Committeeman

There has been some conjecture on
the part of a number of persons as to
whether the Republican State Conven-
tion, which meets at Dover on We'd
nesday, would take action to elect
successor to General T. Coleman du
Pont, who recently resigned as the
Republican National Committeeman
from Delaware.
The national party rules call for
the National Committeeman to be
selected by the Republican State COM
mittee. Efforts are being made to
have General DUPONT withdraw his
resignation, and if these efforts sue
ceed II will be unnecessary for the
new State committee to elect a ma
tional committeeman.
If General DUPONT insists that his
resignation be accepted, however, the
new State committee to be elected by
the convention will name a new ma
tional committee

IN fishing, bathing and boating and
the three campers are enthusiastic
over their experiences with the rod

not decided until the last day of the
camp. Mr.. Crouch won the honor.
with Mr.. Smith a close second. Mr..
Crouch this morning stated that he
had caught so many fine fish that he
was ashamed to mention the number
for fear OF making his hearers ieal-
Gus.
While Mr.. Smith was defeated in
the race for the honor of catching the
largest number OF fish, he won the
honor of catching the largest fish
having caught bass on the second
day that tipped the scales at Is
pounds
In addition to the three above-named
campers there were four others, John s..
Fred S, and John r. Crouch and Sewall
Jones in the camping party, and all had
thoroughly enjoyable time. Friends
from Pennsylvania also visited the
camp.
In the evening the campers were en-
tertained with phonograph selections
and "Uncle' Sewall Jones. One of the
most amusing stories related by "Uncle"
Sewall was the story of the capture of
a wild" mule in which he participated
several years ago.
He related how he and Colonel Zacha
riah McDonough were engaged in the
lumber business several years ago, and
one day while working in the forest near
Porter Station they found wild" mule
in the woods. They succeeded in captur-
ing the mule and drove it into a barn.
Uncle Sewall laughed heartily as he
then told how Colonel Roberts got cor
nered in the barn by the mule. and was
forced to make his escape mp a ladder
to the hayloft and jump from win
dow. The mule was later returned to
his owner.
