which a rat may go, I put the crystals
of the copperas, angl scattered it in the
corners of the floor. The result was
the complete disappearance of rats and
mice. Since that time not a rat or

Every spring the cellar is coated with
yellow wash as a purifier and as a rat
exterminator, and no dysentery or
typhoid fever attacks the family.
Never allow rats and mice to be pois

The State Agricultural Department.
Albany, Ga., News and Advertiser. ,
At every session of the Georgia Leg
islature the scalping knife is raised
against the fetate Agricultural Depart
ment. It is a strange fact, too, that the
relentless opposition that has been ar
rayed .against this Department of the
State Government for a good many
years past has come from the very class
it was designed and established to ben
efit—the farmers.
A bill has been introduced at the
present session of the Legislature to
abolish the Agricultural Department.
Whether it will pass or not remains to
be seen, but it is plain to almost every
one who has mingled much in the Leg
islative circles of the State that if the
Department is saved the names of but
few of the genuine or Simon-pure far
mer members of the General Assembly
will be found on the list of its saviors.
We have observed that, as a general
thing, the lawyer-farmers, doctor-far
mers and merchant-farmers, and those
who are not engaged in fanning at all,
are in favor of maintaining the Agricul
tural Department, while, upon the oth
er hand, the genuine fanners, or those
who are engaged in farming exclusively,
say that they derive no practical bene
fit from the Department; that it is an
expensive institution supporting a lot
of chronic office-holders whose ser
vices are not appreciated by the far
mers, and that it should, therefore, be
abolished.
Georgia is pre-eminently an agricul
tural State, and the large agricultural in
terest of the State is entitled to such
recognition or representation in the
departments of the State Government
as the Agricultural Department is in
tended to supply; but if the farmers of
the State don’t want it, the balance of
the people certainly could afford to dis
pense with it. It is their department
of the State Government, and if they
want to kill it the News and Advertiser
will not be among those who would
stay the knife that is raised against it.
“Wliat we want now,” commenced
a timid and confused speaker at a
meeting of a debating society, “is—is—
not—not so much what we don’t want,
as that which we most require.” His
hearers agreed with him.
head in a whirl, and the liquor—given
as a medicine—made my stomach so
sick I could not tolerate it.
From 175 pounds (my proper weight)
I ran down to 97 pounds—the weight
of a light girl—and was scarcely better
than a skeleton.
If anybody had taken a hatchet and
knocked me down anti killed me I should
have been better off. .
During the latter part of this period,
early in 1886, my physician said:
“Miller, there’s no use in mv taking
any more money of you; I can t do you
any good. I might pour pounds of qui-
ninehlown your throat and it wouldn’t
help you.” . _
On the strength of this I gave up the
use of quinine altogether, and made up
my mind to do nothing more and take
mv chances.
Three weeks afterwards—about the
last of May—my wife saw an^ advertise
ment of Kaskine in a New York paper.
She told me of it. I said: “Stuff and
nonsense ! it can’t do me any good.
But she went to a druggist’s, neverthe
less, to get it. The druggist advised
her against Kaskine; he said it was
nothing but sugar; that she ought not
to throw away her money on it, etc.
He said he didn't keep it, but could get
it if she insisted oil having it. Turn
ing a wav in disgust my wife spoke to
our neighbor, Mr. A. G. Hegewald,
who got her a bottle at a drug store in
Sixth avenue.
Almost against my will, and without
the least faith, I began taking it. In
one week I was better. I began to
sleep. I stopped “seeing ghosts.” I
began to have an appetite and to gam
strength. This was now the first of
June, 1886, and by the end of that
month I was back at my bench at C. P.
Smith’s scroll sawing factory on 116th
street, where I work now.
Since then I have never lost a day
from sickness. Taking Kaskine only,
about forty pellets in four equal doses
a day, I continued to gain. The mala
ria appeared to be killed in my system,
and now I’ve got back my old weight-
175 pounds—and my old strength to la
bor. I am an astonishment to myself
and to my friends, and if Kaskine did
not do this I don’t know what did. The
only greater thing it could do would be
to bring a dead man to life.
Fkederick A. Miller,
630 East 157th Street, New York.
P. S.—For the absolute truth of the
above statement I refer to the follow
ing gentlemen, who are personally ac
quainted with the facts: Mr. Alexan
der Weir, 626 156th St.;Mr. George Sea
man, 158th street and Courtlandt ave
nue; Mr. A. Moebus, 154th street and
Courtlandt avenue; Mr. P. F. Vaupel,
154th street and Courtlandt avenue;
Mr. John Lunny, 630 East 158tli street;
Mr. John Rensnaw, 124 125th street,
and many others. I will also reply to
letters of inquiry.
We submit that the above astonish
ing cure, vouched for as it is by reputa
ble men, is deserving of a thorough and
candid investigation by thinking peo-
S le. And we further submit that when
ruggists turn away customers by fal
sifying the character of a remedy be
cause they do not happen to have it on
hand, they do a great wrong. If this
afflicted man had not disregarded-the-
druggist’s advice and sent elsewhere
for the remedy he would without
doubt have been in his grave.
Other letters of a similar character
from prominent individuals, which
stamp Kaskine as a remedy of un
doubted merit, will be sent on appli
cation. Price 81.00, or 6 bottles, $5,000.
Sold by druggists, or sent by mail on
receipt of price.
