LESSONS FROM DROUGHT.
Professor Gallowsy Says Farmers
Will Learn Value of Variety,
Professor Galloway, chief of the bu
reau of plant industry at the depart
ment of agriculture in Washington, has
returned from a tour of investigation
of the drought stricken regions of the
west,says theChicagolnterOcean. Pro
fessor Galloway’s mission was not so
intimately connected with ascertaining
the extent of the injury suffered by the
crops as it was with the observance of
the preparations made by the farmers
to defend themselves against drought
in future years. His examinations into
the conditions prevalent in some re
gions in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illi
nois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and
Colorado revealed the fact that in spite
of the severe damage suffered by the
crops the drought was in one scnse a
valuable lesson.
“Farmers are learning to plant more
of a variety and put less dependence in
one particular crop,” said Professor
Galloway.
The experiment stations maintained
by the department in all parts of the
country, he said, are important factors
in the dissemination of practical knowl
edge, and the farmers are learning
their value and profiting thereby. Pro
fessor Galloway said that the beet sug
ar industry was attaining respectable
proportions. Sugar beets, he declared,
need much closer attention than most
grains, corn for instance, but that it
has been demonstrated at one of the
experiment stations which has gone in
to the beet raising business on rather a
large scale that a profit of about $75 an
acre can be realized.
Professor Galloway found much of
the corn suffering from undercultiva
tion, the farmers in many places having
evidently despaired of the crop and let
the weeds run riot in the fields. This iz
a mistake, he declares, for the reason
that the remaining moisture there may
Le in the soil goes to the support of the
weeds as well as the grain.

WEDDED A MAN.
e
How a New Jersey Man Escaped a Woman
He Did Not Want to Marry.
Among the effects of J. J. Sutton, 28
vears old, who was buried on last Mon
day at Morristown, N. J.. his family
found a marriage certificate which was
the first intimation they had raceived
that he was a married map. The cer
titicate showed that on November 8,
1898, Sutton had married Clara Emily
Morris of Newark. the ceremony being
performed by the Rev. Dr Judd of the
Bernardsville Metnodist churzh. His
relatives investigated and discovered
that Clara Emily Morris was a young
man of the name of Jamesz Williamsoo.
Farther investigation disclosed the
fact that Sutton had become engaged
to a young woman of this city. He did
not desire to marry her and fearing he
would be sued for a breach of promise
he devised the plan of having a man
impersonate a wom:n, 20 threugh the
marriage ceremony with him and se
cure a certificate which he could show
the woman as the reason he could not
marry her. The plan seemed tO have
worked. The woman died two years
ago.
Mr. G. A. Stillman, a merchang of
Tampico, 111 . writes; “Foley's Kidpey

A CROOK'S LOVE LETTER.
One of Several Found Among Effects
of a Smooth Couple.
Harry Frank, knowp to the police in
various cities as “Chicago Irank,” and
Irene Irank, said to be the wife of Jim
McNally, the noted pickpocket, who
was recently arrested on the charge of
substituting bogus rings for gold ones
in a Brooklyn jewelry store, were held
for trial in the court of special sessions
by I\lngis{mte Tighe the other day,
says the New York Sun. Among the
effects of the couple found in their ho
tel at Coney Island were several let
ters, of which this is a sample:
HENDERSON, Ky.
Dear Chick—l pen you this letter to let you
know that I am all right. But we are having a
pretty tough week. Rain and no graft. We are
almost crazy. We want no more of Kentucky after
this week. More ‘‘mobs’’ came in today. Lefty
s with Michigan Kid. You know we had a fight.
Well, nothing lost. Sheeny Harry is here and acts
the part of a gentleman, but & that he is all
right. Dolly, thought that by tais time I could
be sending some money on, but, Doll, % cannot,
owing to wet weather and jumping around. But
don’t mind. Chick, when Jim gets it, you know,
Doll, it will go home to you. Chick, this state
@in’t much. It is only good for fine whisky, fast
horses and pretty woemen. Chick, it’s a fact the
most pretty women you ever looked at are in this
state, but that is all they can boast of. No mon
ey. We will be glad to ger into Wisconsin or Mis
souri, a 3 these are good states for guns. Now,
Dolly, take care of yourself and pray, as Jim
prays for you. Goodby. I remain yow loving
Jiv.
With love and kisses, goedby.
Since the arrest of the couple inqui
ries have been received in reference to
them from chiefs of police in various
western cities.

An odd action for damages has been
instituted in an Indiana court. One
citizen stood inactively by while
another bit off the lingzer of a
man. For neglecting to interfere
the spectator has been sued by the suf

There are people who say that the
benefit derived from the use of put-up
medicines is imaginary. It is not the
case with Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion, which makes weak women strong
and sick women well. A woman may
imagine she’s weak, or may fancy she’s
sick, but her imagination can’t add forty
pounds to her weight. The positive
proof of the curative power of “ Favorite
Prescription ” is found in the restoration
of health which is recorded in face and
form, of strength which can be tested,
and weight which can be registered in
pounds and ounces.
The general health of women is so
intimately connected with the local
health of the womanly organs that
when these are diseased the whole body
suffers loss. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
scription cures womanly diseases. It
establishes regularity, stops weakening
drains, heals inflammation and ulcera
tion and cures female weakness.
I am very glad to let other poor sufferers
know what Dr. Pierce’s medicines have done
for me,” writes Mrs. Edwin H. Gardner, of
Bedchwood, Norfolk Co., Mass. (Box 70.) “You
know I wrote to you last summer. I read what
your medicine had done for other dpeople. so
thought I would try it, and I found it was a
bless ‘:ito me and 1:[ l“gmily. I began in&:me
and t six bottles of your medicine, and three
vials of * Pellets.’ I took your medicine a year
when I had a ten-pound girl. I had the easiest
time I ever had with any of my three children.
I have been very well since I took your medi
cine. I took three bottles of ‘ Favorite Prescrip
tion,’ three of * Golden Medical Discovery.’ and
three vials of ‘ Pellets.’ I had no appetite and
could not eat much without it distressing me
before I took Jour * Favorite Prescription,’ and I
only weighed 135 pounds. Now I weigh 175.”

THOSE OCEAN WEDDINGS.
The Work of Cupid on a Voyage to
the Philippines.
Several weeks ago 300 teachers of
each sex sailed for the Philippines
aboard the transport Thomas. With
the blue dome of heaven above, set
with myriads of scintillating stars, and
under moonlight of molten. silver and
gold, the grand ship ploughed the Pa
cific waves, while all aboard were hila
rious with joy as each pulse beat
thrilled the souls every moment with
expectations of new-born pleasures and
delights. Thus it appears that Pro
pinguity and Opportunity are the twin
allies of Cupid, for when Honolulu was
reached 20 per cent of the whole cargo
went in search of priest or preacher,
to be united in wedloc.s. It is another
evidence of the potency of environment
and contact. Of the 3) couples thus
united 20 went from the marriage altar
to the life insurance agents and took
out policies for their wives.
SOMETHING TO REMEMBER.
When a cough or cold is long neg
lected consumption almost iavariably
follows. Remember Mexican Syrup
only costs Zic. a bottle, and yet has
i proven in many cases an absolute safe
cure tor coughs, colds and consump
tion. Taken in time it cures rapidiy.
LChi.dren like it because it tastes so
cood. Insist on your druggist keep
'ring it for sale. Read the seemibgly
| miraculous cures it has effected, print
ed on the wrapper around vhe bottle.
1 A Pitiable Sight.
| What is more *pitiable than to see a
' punv, delicate little child dying from
' neglect. There are many little ones
whose cheeks would grow rosy, whose
eyes would grow bright, whose flesh
wonld be plump and pretty, if only the
worms that are knawing at their vitals
were removed, which is easily effected
with Mother's Worm Syrup, so nice to
‘take that childreo ask forit. Also a
cure for tape worm in grown people.
Try a 25¢. bottle. .
The Secret of Good Health.
The secret of beauty and good health
is cleanliness. UUncleanliness breeds
disease. Internal cleauliness is even
of greater importance than external.
Keep vour liver active and your bowels
thoroughly clean by taking a Mexican

the nerves, kidneys, etc., good also.

To Pay King Ed’s Debts,
A syndicate has been formed to pay
the debts of King Edward. At the
head oi it is Lord Farqubhar, who has
accepted the pest of controller of the
royal household. In that position he
will make retrenchments in the royal
expenses. The first thing he has done
is to cut the wages of the servants.
He says he hopes *hat in ten years he
will haye saved enough to reimburse
