Peruvian River of Horror.

There is a river of mystery and
horror in Peru, and the legends OF
rich rubber regions and untold wealth
in gold are accompanied by tales ct
those who went up it never to return
Cashier Watkins, naturalist, recent
ly returned from South America, tells
of the stream.
''This river" he said, sis the Colo
RADIO river, the richest river in Peru
Great groves of rubber trees lie along
it's course, and gold has been found
in it. But the Mascos, a tribe of can
nibals, infest it. They still practice
cannibalism, and will kill a man on
sight. Expeditions have been fitted
out and been heavily armed to go ex-
ploring for rubber and gold, but none
of them has ever returned. The saw
ages have killed the men and eaten
them and turned the canoes adrift'
They have come down the river
empty, bottoms up, or filled with sup
plies which the savages did not care to
remove"

do more than three abortiOnS take
place, and in the majority of instances
there are not more than two. Cows
which are not made sterile will in all
probability resume normal reproduc-
ton. On the other hand, if they are
removed to make way for fresh ami
mails, there is strong possibility that
the newcomers already are, or soon
will be, infected, and are actually
further from immunity than the old
ones. The elimination of infected an
imals is therefore not to be recon-
disease, unless their value is not gre ut
enough to warrant the expense of
treatment.
A train of complications often ac-
companies abortion, and Of these re-
tanned afterbirth is perhaps the com
monest. This, if neglected or improp-
erly treated, may result in absorption
of poisonous products, septicemia, and
death. Also Sterility may follow, ruin

with abortion.
These complications, together with
the great loss in calves and the less
ened milk production, make the wide
and ever extending distribution of the
disease a matter Of tremendous impor-
lance. both to the dairy and beef in

HORSE REQUIRES A
VARIETY OF FEEDS
Erroneous Idea to Think That
Animals Need Nothing but Corn
or Oats and Hay.

A horse needs a variety Of food the
same as man. Some feeders think that
if there is plenty of corn or oats and
hay on hand that is all that is needed
for wOrkhOrses, but such is not the
case. There is great dietetic value in
variety in any ration.
Scores of men have learned from
experience that a steady diet Of dry
food is not necessarily the best for
farm workhorses in summer, and it
is now the custom Of large num-
Der of farmers to turn their horses
out to pasture every night, as well
as on Sundays, when the weather be-
comes warm and comfortable. And
it may be said that nothing but good
results come from the pasturing when
it is done Systematically and the
horses are performing their regular
work, whether on the road or on the
farm.

GOOD REMEDIES FOR
TROUBLES OF SWINE
Intestinal Worms Are Most Likely
to Infest Poorly Fed and Neg
IeCted Youngsters.

Growing pigs are often attacked by
intestinal worms. These parasites are
most likely to infest poorly fed, neg
lected pigs, kept in dirty pens and
yards, fed from filthy troughs and
swill barrels, drinking stale or con-
taminated water, and roofing and
sleeping in manure piles and stack
bottoms. Such pigs fail to thrive and
become rickety, pot-bellied and profit
less "runts," or else succumb to the
effects Of the parasites or Of some all
ment made deadly by their presence.
The intestinal worms are of two
kinds-the thorn-headed and the
round-headed, and few remedies for
their removal are given herewith by
DIR. A. S. Alexander, professor of vet
Urinary science and animal husbandry
at the University Of Wisconsin col
lege of agriculture.
Turpentine is a popular remedy, be-
ing given in the slop for three success
sive mornings at the rate of one tea
spoonful for each 80 pounds of body
weight of pigs. Sulphate Of iron (cop-
peras) is an effective remedy, if given
as follows: Dissolve copperas in
warm water and mix in the slop at the
rate of one dram for each 100 pounds
of body weight Of hogs, and continue
this for five successive mornings. Re-
peat as required. Either copperas or
turpentine may be given occasionally
as a preventive in herds where worms
have been prevalent. These drugs
should not be given pregnant sows. In
severe cases where immediate action
is required, affected pigs should be
starved for ~ hours and then given
eight grains of santonin and five grains
of calomel for every 100 pounds of
body weight.

man directly at the spring was filling
some bottles with this water.
She thanked the stranger very
much, impressed with his courteous,
mannerly ways, and LEFT the spot won
dering who he might be, but surmis-
ing that he was one of the group who
were visiting the site OF the new sum-
mer resort regularly.
1t was about a week later that, as
Inez came in from the garden, her
aunt announced a visitor waiting for
her in the little parlor. She was sur
prised to find that this was the young
man who had rescued her runaway
hat.
Il represent the new syndicate
which is to operate the summer resort
here, Miss Walton" he stated. eve
have been looking over your spring
property. The truth is, we find that
it's water is of rare medicinal value
To add spring equal in it's virtues to
the famous spas abroad is to have a
very valuable feature in our general
to use it and to build pagoda, park
the surroundings and establish drink
ing fountains and baths. The negotia-
ton has been left entirely In my
hands. 1 have decided to offer you
five thousand dollars"
"Oh, what blessing" cried the de-
lighted Inez. with that l can better
provide for my dear ones"
Five thousand a year on ten-year
lease" concluded the young man, and
Inez sat fairly stunned with amaze
ment.
You cannot mean it," she gasped.
"Why, offered the land for one thou
sand dollars outright when l first
came here"
THAT may be true" spoke Alvin
Hughes, but it's value was not then
known. I might have bargained If L
had been dealing with man, but
you"
He paused; he did not go on to ten
of all the good he had heard OF this
sterling young woman and the chival-
ric and noble in his nature that babe
him protect her interests.
And so Inez was no longer Lady
Hard Luck" And later she became
Lady Thoughtful, and Lady Interested,
when she learned that the syndicate
managers, when they found out that
their representative had acted like
man of honor instead of taking easy
advantage of an inexperienced young
lady, promptly turned him adrift.
She could not get the sufferer on
her behalf out of her mind. She To-
Gated him at last through a friend,
filling rather poor position.
He had brought her comparative
opulence, surely comfort and a COM
potency. He was the one in hard luck
now, and all for her sake.
A womans wit brought about a
meeting. A woman's love ruse, genu-
inc and supreme. Alvin Hughes would
not share her fortune. Her loyal al
lection was sufficient, and he was the
kind of a man who could make his
way rapidly when the smile of brave,
encouraging woman was his-all his
own.
So Lady Hard Luck became Old
Lady Bountiful, her sweet life filled
not only with the love of loyal man,
but scattering it's perfume among all
those with whom her radiant nature
came in contact.

Two Is Company.

After saying his prayers Mt night the
seven-year-old son of parents in Larch-
mont announced that he was so tired
of the kind of life he was compelled to
lead that he believed there was nothing
for it but for him to run away. The
father considered the matter thought
fully and then said:
George, if that is the way you feel
there is money in my purse here; you
may take it ALL"
The boy packed his grip, got to the
front door, came back on the ground OF
having forgotten his toothbrush, ana
went downstairs again. The parents
were much disturbed to know what he
would do. He opened the front door,
went out on the veranda, and all was
silence. The father and mother looked
at each other, but thought the course
they had adopted the best, and hence
did not make move.
After Is minutes of intense anxiety
the door opened and boys voice
called out: "Say, dad, if I'm going
away alone I'd better take mother
along, don't you think?"-New York

Profound ESSAY on the Duck.

A little schoolgirl in Michigan has
written the following essay on the
duck:
'"The duck is low, heavy-set bird
He is a mighty poor. singer having a
coarse voice caused by getting sc
many frogs in his neck and he likes
the water and carries toy balloon in
his stomach to keep from sinking; the
duck has only two legs and they are
set so far back on his running gears
by nature that they come pretty neal
missing his body, some ducks when
they get big curls on their. tails are
called brakes and don't have to set or
hatch but just loaf and go swimming
and eat everything in sight if were TIC
be a duck l would rather be drake
they have a wide bill like they use
it for a spade they walk like drunk
man they bounce and bump about side
TO side if you scare them they Will
flap their wings and try to make
pass at singing"

The Sunshine.

The child's character in future
years will reflect just as much sun
shine and cheer as surrounded him
from the earliest days. We recognize
unthinkingly that the child is q re-
Election of his surroundings. The whin'
ing child lives with irritable people
The rude child is not treated courte-
ously. We recognize the beloved child
at once. Whatever of strength or
weakness may be hidden in the child's
heart. his manners and mannerisms,
or the reverse, are the reflections OF
his surroundings. No child speaks
harsh word until he has heard one
No child lies, in the essential meaning
of the term, if he is brought up in an
atmosphere of kindness. And the be-
ginning of this silent training is in the
very beginning of his life. Love and
truth must wrap the cradle. Firmness
and self-control must be the mothers
while the babe yet sleeps in her arms,

New Works Great BRIDGES.

The first of the great bridges con-
Meeting Manhattan and Brooklyn was
opened to traffic 33 years ago, May "A,
1883. Brooklyn bridge was long con-
sidered one of the engineering won
ders of the world, but it Is now but
one of five great structures which span
the East river. Work on the great
suspension bridge was commenced
early in 1870 and Is years passed be-
fore it was "ready for business" AL
though traffic over the bridge is sew
eral times greater than it was at first,
engineers say that it is as safe as ever.
The Williamsburg bridge, the second
across the East river, was commenced
In 1896 and completed in 1903. The
Manhattan bridge and the greensboro
bridge were both commenced in 1901
and completed in 1909. The He'll gate
arch bridge, railway structure span
ming the East river and now nearing
completion, is the heaviest bridge in
the world.
