C ASTOniA. Bean the The Kind You Haw Always Bought Signature of - / A juryman gave some good ad¬ vice to mothers, at an inquest at Norwich concerning the death of a child, whose clothing caught fire from a lighted stick flung by an other child. If people, he said, would only rinse clothing, after washing, in a solution of alum au d water, they would never take fire. If they came in contact with | a flame they would merely smolder. j j Healthy Mothers Few mothers »re healthy, because their duties are so exacting. The anxiety cf pregnancy, the shock of childbirth, ir.d the care of young children, are severe trials on any woman. But with M ine of Cardui within her grasp, every mother—every woman in the land—can pay the debt of personal health she owes her loved ones. Do you want robust health with all its privileges will and pleasures? Wine of Cardui give it to you. ; strengthens the femtle organs and invig¬ : orates weakened functions. For every female ill or weakness it is the best medicine made. Ask your druggist for $1.00 bottle Wine of Cardui, and take no substitute under any circumstances. Mn Edwin Crwm. Oormtt.

London now claims a population of 6,500,000. That is about as large as the entire state of New York. The Rome Tribune wants to know if the house fly ain’t a great scavenger? Well, if it is, we think the remedy is worse than the j disease. New York is to have a hotel on Fifth avenue 25 stories high, In that case, those who occupy the top room can truthfully say they are “living high > » The Chinese have petitioned Gen. Chaffee not to wove the American troops from Pekin, and he has re¬ ferred the matter to the govern¬ ment at Washington. The public debt of France is now said to be 30,050,000,000 francs, on which the interest is $1,2 50,000,000 francs. These are figures under which the mind staggers. VOL.

The Lay of the American Hen, We have read of Maud on a sum¬ mer day, who, barefooted, raked 1 the new-mown hay ; we have read of the maid in the early morn who milked the cow with crumpled horn; and we have read the lay the poets sing of the rustling corn and and the flowers of spring ; but of ' a11 the lays of ton R ue or pen, there is nau R ht Lke the lays of the Amer ican hcn ’ Lon S’ lon £ before Maud • ra ked her hay, the American hen had begun to lay ; and ere the milk ” a,d st,rs a lhe h en is U P and ^dropped '“'UmV her egg : the , JT”!’ corn must h °' d ° w n w *» U * barn ! yard ring.

An interesting wedding took place in New York Friday, at 70 Washington Place, when Dr. I, R. E. Couturier, 87 years old, was united in marriage to Mrs. Marga ret E. Shaw, who is 86. Rev. Dr. George Alexander, of the Univer s ' f y Place Presbyterian church, of ficiated. The bridegroom, who lives in Brooklyn, comes from a prominent South Carolina family, Ee retired from active practice years ago with a competence. The bride is the widow’ of William E. Shaw, who was a prominent insur a,,ce nian - Dr. Couturier’s first wife was Julia Anthony, daughter of the founder of Georgia Medical ■ College. The couple met about two years ago and proceeded to fall i* 1 love at once. They became en¬ j gaged only a short time ago. Kansas wants 20,000 laborers to come out there and harvest her 100,000,coo bushels of wheat at $2.00 per day. It seems like Mrs. Nation ought to shoulder her hatch e t and proceed to business. The new Christian church, in Monroe, will be dedicated on the first Sunday in June. The state evangelist, Rev. Mr. Combs will 1 be there, and will conduct a series of meetings from that time, with the pastor, Rev. J. H. Wood. Vital statistics in New England show a continual decline in the birth rate of the native population. They indicate that but for foreign reinforcements that part of the United States would be losing ground—becoming less populous from year to year.
