Shade trees are neglected from the
time they are put into the ground until
they are large. Insects and diseases
attack them, but as they bear no crops
and are supposed to produce no profit
they are left to the ravages of their
enemies. The shade tree will be
missed when it is gone however and
its place cannot easily be filled. Spray
the shade tree and save them as they
add hundreds of dollars value to the

One point in growing turnips is to
plant the seed on ground that has been
well cleared of weeds. If the young
plants can escape the weeds until the

Suflereri from this herrible malady
nearly always inherit it not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through se oral generations. This deadly
poison may Uy dormant in the blood for
yean, or until yon reach middle life, then
he first little sore or ulcer makes its ap
pearance or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood - every re stage
yi it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in a small way , as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows :

SUNLIGHT AS A CURE.
SUCCESSFUL EXPERIMENTS IN
EUROPE.
Terrors of Measles and Smallpox Modi
fied by Novel Course of Treatment
Red Bays Efficacious in Drying; Up
Pustules) and Avoiding; Scars.
Recent experiments indicate that the
sun may be a potent remedial agent in
the case of persons attcked with small
pox, scarlatina and measles. These ex
periments were made by Dr. Finsen,
of Copenhagen, and Dr. Chatiniere, of
St. Maude, and so novel were they that
they have aroused a good deal of dis
cussion among the members of the
Academy of Medicine in Paris.
Dr. C'uatiniere a short time ago treat
ed twelve children, who had measles,
according to this new method, which is
scientifically known as phototherapie.
Red light was the only cure which he
used, and this he made serviceable in
the following manner: On the win
dows of the sick-rooms he hung red
curtains, and on the table, near each
bed, he placed a lamp which gave forth
a red light. He acted thus because he
felt satisfied that the irritation of the
skin in cases of measles is due to the
chemical rays of the solar spectrum, or,
in other words, to the ultraviolet rays,
and not to the so-called caloric or heat
rays. If this were not so, how account
for the fact that the pustules and scars
are especially deep and marked on the
face and hands, which are the very
parts of the body that are most exposed
to the solar rays? The result showed
that he had not erred in arriving at this
conclusion. His little patients rapidly
regained their health, and the virtue
that lies in red curtains and red lamps
is being extolled by many physicians.
Impressed, like Dr. Chatiniere, by the
fact that the influence of the solar
rays is especially manifested on the
faces and hands of patients. Dr. Finsen
conceived the idea of subjecting per
sons suffering from smallpox to the in
fluence of ultraviolet rays, which
reached them after the light had been
filtered through thick red curtins.
The result was that the little vesicles
or bladders gradually disappeared, and
the patients did-not suffer from the cus
tomary fever, and, furthermore, were
not pockmarked. The ultraviolet rays,
indeed, in the case of these patients
produced practically the same effect as
the red light in that of Dr. Chatiniere' s,
the most notable tokens of their effi
cacy being the absence of fever and
restlessness, and the gradual disappear
ance of the eruptions before coming
to maturity. It was also noticed that
the rays had a marked effect on the
maladies in so far as they affected the
bronchial tubes.
Dr. Finsen's method of cure has been
introduced into France by Dr. Larat,
and is being used not only in cases of
smallpox, but also in cases of certain
forms of skin diseases.
GOVERNMENT JEWELS.
Costly Gems Sent to Officials by For
eign Rulers.
At Washington, in the bond vault of
the treasury, is a great store of dia
monds and other precious stones that
belong to nobody. Most of them have
been in the custody of the officials for
about sixty years, but some of the gems
have been there much longer and their
history rests mainly on hazy tradition,
says the Omaha Bee,
There Is a bottle four or five inches
long filled with diamonds, there are va
rious other loose stones, and there are
many set in gold ornaments. The value
of the whole lot Is very variously esti
mated, the computations ranging from
$50,000 to $100,000.
Most of these gems were sent as a
present to President Van Buren by the
imaum of Muscat in 1839. This Asian
potentate conceived that he had re
ceived some service from this country
and this was his way of acknowledging
his obligation. President Van Buren
could not accept them, for there is a
clause in the constitution forbidding
any persons connected with the govern
ment accepting any present or decora
tion from any foreign power or ruler.
But the oriental's present could not
be returned; be would look upon that
as ah insult, so at last the jewels were
turned over to the treasury to keep till
something was done about them, and
nothing ever has been done.
In similar ways has the entire collec
tion accumulated; kings and princes
are frequently not as familiar with the
constitution of the United States as
they should be, and government officers
of various grades have sent here gifts
they have received and found it Incon
venient to return and Impossible to
keep.
In the bond vault they must remain
till Congress "takes action" on their
situation. ,
Some Great Bridges.
The Brooklyn bridge is the most nota
ble engineering feat of the century.
Nothing in the world approaches it.
The greatest cantilever bridge is over
the Forth at Queensferry, Scotland.
The finest metal arch bridge is the
Washington, over the Harlem, at 181st
street, New York. The longest metal
span is the bridge of Otiz I., at Oporto,
Portugal, being 556 feet. Two city
streets cross it at different levels. Next
comes the Garabit viaduct over the
Truyere, In France, with a span of 542
feet. I is 340 feet above water. The
Pia Maria bridge, over the Douro,
spans 525 feet. The St Louis bridge
has three spans of 520 feet. England
has scores of splendid bridges, among
them the Tower bridge, London; the
Clifton suspension bridge, the bridge
across the Tay (Scotland), that over
the Wye, the stone arch at Chester
with a span of 200 feet twenty feet
less than our masterwork of engineer
ing; Cabin John bridge, three miles
above Washington; the bridge over the
Boyne, over the Thames, at Windsor,
and over the Trent at Newark. Kansas

Lotas Land.
"Of all fascinating places under the
sun," said a gentleman who has travel- I
ed much, "the island of Tahiti, one of
the Society Islands, is the most fascln- '
ating. In that country, a little earth
lost In a vast ocean, nature has done
everything to make indolent souls hap
py. The climate is temperate and even
all the year round, the vegetation Is
luxuriant, the women beautiful, and
the nights, full of perfume and mysti
cal light, stir the most practical mind
to love of meditation and dreaming.
The influence of this dreamy, lazy life
Is very Insidious. It is not necessary
to work, as the island furnishes food
without the labor of tillage.
"I know a number of Americans and
French who have gone there for a visit,
and have become so enraptured with
the languorous existence that, like the
visitors to lotus land, they lie down and
forget friends, home, ambition, and
everything. I remember how I used to
feel the influence steal upon me. Many
a time I wished earnestly to cast my
lot with those languorous people. I
can look back now and see myself as I
lay one night against a cocoanut tree in
a sort of ecstasy of meditation. Over
head was a sky bright with a million
stars. Sounds came to me in a strange
fashion, blending Into a murmur. A
short distance away a group of natives,
girls and men. were shouting the rhyth
mic chant of the upuupa dance. I
thought of myself on this little isle,
with ocean on every side and New Or
leans so many miles distant. Nothing
seemed real to me but that spot in
which one could hear indistinctly the
chant of the singers and the sobbing of
the waves; a mysterious charm possess
ed me." Mexican Herald.

When reproved on one occasion for
not attending a committee called to
consider the paving of St. Pauls
churchyard with wood, Charles Mack
lin, the noted Irish actor, said: "Oh,
you lay your heads together, and It
will soon be done."
When Queen Victoria was at Bal
moral some time ago she visited an
aged cottager, and, on leaving her,
said: "You will now no longer be
afraid of me, and I shall expect you to
pay me a visit." "Ah, ma'am," she re
plied, "it's not ycrself I'm frightened
at; it's them grand servants."
General de Gallifet one day, in the
corridors of the Chamber of Deputies,
was talking to a friend, when he sud
denly heard cries from the Chanmer of
"Assassin'. Assassin!" With a laugh,
he said to his friend: "They are calling
for me," and with perfect calm he en
tered, and called at the top of his voice:
"Voila! Voilal"
Among the many stories told lately
In connection with the late Duke oi
Argyll is one concerning a distinguish
ed officer of the army who called on the
Duke at Inverary Castle, and was told
by the servant that he was not at home.
"Where is he?" asked the officer. "He's
awa', awa'," was Donald's hesitating
reply; "awa washing himself." The
Duke was at a seaside watering place.
Ex-Judge W. H. Moore, of Chicago,
organizer of half a dozen gigantic steel
and iron combinations, has made it an
inflexible rule never to allow his utter
ances to be printed. It was recently
reported that he was going to Europe,
and a reporter visited him to verify the
rumor. But the Chicagoan was as ob
durate as ever. "You won't say
whether you are going away, Judge?"
was asked. "I never talk for publica
tion," was the suave answer. "Can't
you tell us anything about the condition
of the iron business?" "I do not talk
for publication." The reporter had pur
sued his victim into the elevator, which
was slowly descending. Renouncing
any ambition for the coveted interview,
he said: "A fine day. Judge." "Not for
publication," was the instinctive reply.
In the lately Issued memorials of
Charles Henry Pearson, once one of
Australia's chief men of affairs, an
amusing story of his student life at
Oxford deals with a wayward genius,
whom he styles "L.": "It was one of
his troubles that he was afflicted with
self -consciousness. One day he con
fided to a friend that he had determined
to try getting drunk as a possible cure.
The friend argued against the plan, but
attached no particular Importance to
the matter, and presently forgot all
about it. Late that night, as he was at
work, he was startled by a noise as of
some one stumbling upstairs and fall
ing against his door. He opened his
oak, and 'L.' staggered in and threw
himself on a chair, very drunk and mut
tering, 'Self-conscious still; self-conscious
still!' "
The late Mrs. Gladstone's implicit
confidence In her husband's ability
which amounted almost to a belief in
his infallibility is well illustrated in
the following anecdote: During the
troublous times of 1885, just before the
fall of Khartoum and the murder of
Chinese Gordon, which were really the
cause of the defeat of the Gladstone
ministry a little later, a statesman high
in the councils of the Liberal party
called at Mr. Gladstone's residence, and
was cordially received by his wife. He
was in a lugubrious frame of mind, and
spoke dismally of the situation. "Ah,
Mrs. Gladstone," he began, "these are
dreadful times. The clouds are very
thick. We can only remember that
there is One above who will help ns in
all our troubles, and that He will guide
us out of our difficulties." "Oh, yes,"
replied Mrs. Gladstone, with great
cheerfulness, "he is upstairs shaving
Just now, but he'll be down directly."
The Bights of Newsboys.
The judgment comes from the district
court at the national capital that the
sale of newspapers on the streets is a
legitimate business, and that newsboys
have a right to enter street cars and sell
papers to passengers provided they be
have themselves and leave the car
when their business is finished. One
newsboy was forcibly ejected from a
car in Washington some time ago and
had a leg crushed by a car running on
the other track. He has just obtained
anawardof $5,000 damages from a jury
under instructions to the above effect
by the judge.

HOW TO TALK INTERESTINGLY.
Sincerity, Simplicity and Sympathy the
'ill roe Graces of Conversation.
"Entertaining conversation is not
alone dependent upon ' a well-stored
mind, a ready wit or broad culture,"
writes Mrs. Burton Klngsland in the
Ladies' Home Journal. "It lays under
contribution qualities of heart as well
as head, and should reveal sincerity,
sympathy and simplicity. We must
feel an interest In our subject before
we can inspire it, and enthusiasm is
contagious when it Is sincere. It
gives animation to the face, vivacity
to the manner, and has a thought
compelling power that aids fluency of
expression. Sympathy and adapta
bility are created In a measure by the
desire to please, but one must be sen
sitive to the mood of one's audience
and quick to perceive when some one
else wishes to speak. There are talk
ers who metaphorically take the bit
between their teeth and run away with
a subject. When they finally cease no
i one has anything to say, despairing of
opportunity. Without simplicity no
! conversation has charm. The moment
I we perceive that It is labored, or that !
the speaker seems to calculate the ef- j
feet of his words, if unnecessary men
I tion is made of desirable acquain
tances or there is a display of attain
ments or mock-innocent vaunting of
advantages that moment do we feel
only contempt for the affectation and i
pretense. Truth has a marvelous pow-1
or nf mallni, I 1 f r,.lt- 1 onita nf irhit I
.loci, ewu, .u I
is said Self-consciousness Is but ego- j
usin under a less severe name, ana
self must be forgotten before we can
add to our speech the grace and dig
nity of simplicity."
What to Talk About.
"The subjects of entertaining conver
sation are, of course, multiplied by In-
i creased knowledge of books, of the
world of men and women, music, art
I and travel," writes Mrs. Burton Kings- j
land, In the Ladies' Home Journal. '
j "One should be familiar with the cur-,
rent news of the day and the topics oc-1
j cupying public attention, with the
j names and authors of the new books, J
j and be able to say something worth
hearing about what one has read and
heard. Many get no further in speak
ing of a book than that it is dull or in
teresting. Others give In few words
what seems to be its central idea, its
characteristics, the time and scene of .
Its action, quoting perhaps some sentl-:
ment that has Impressed, or witticism
that has pleased. True culture carries
with It an atmosphere of breadth the
world and not the village. A woman,
lacking It, was said to betray by her
conversation a mind of narrow com
pass, bounded on the north by her ser
vants, on the east by her children, on
the south by her ailments, and on the
west by her clothes! The mind grows
shallow when occupied perpetually
with trivialities. A course of solid
reading is a good tonic. When ignor
ant of our igaorance we do not know
when we betray ourselves."
Lamps for Bagdad.
"Carrying coals to Newcastle" Is an
out-of-date proverb. A Chicago Trib
une correspondent says that an enter
prising New Yorker is shipping lamps
to Bagdad, the home of Aladdin.
He has made a lamp that seems to
have captured the whole Orient, and
princes and potentates are clamoring
for his goods. Missionaries were re
sponsible for the Introduction of the
lamps. They Informed the benighted
that the Americans bad good light to
sell.
Many of the buyers are exalted per
sonages. The lamps go to the Emperor
of Siam's palace at Bangkok, to the Sul
tan of Morocco's palace at Morocco,
and to a number of califs at Damascus
and viziers at Bagdad.
These lamps burn kerosene oil, but
they have no chimneys. By a mechani
cal device air is forced into the flame,
which gives a clear white light equal to
twenty candle-power.
In place of chimneys the lamps have
globes. The pictures on the globes are
gaudy and elaborate compositions, and
It is suggested that they are largely ac
countable for the popularity of the
lamps.
Too Accommodating.
A guileless rustic who' wished to be
come attached to one of our railways
emerged from the examination room
and informed the expectant relatives
that he had failed to pass the sight test.
"Why, you can't have!" exclaimed
the father, who was horrified at the
thought "You're no more color blind
than I am."
"Happen not, but they won't have
me," answered the rustic bitterly. "It
all comes o' tryin' to be polite an' oblig
in as you said I was to be."
"But I can't see how being polite
could make any difference," quavered
:he father.
"It did, though," said the rustic. "The
old chap held something up an' says:
"This Is green, Isn't it? Come, now,
isn't it green?' quite pleading-like, and,
though I could see it wor red I couldn't
find It In my 'art to tell him he wor
wrong for fear he might take offense.
So I simply said, 'It is, yer. honor,' an'
they bundled me out. No more polite
ness for me. It don't pay." Chat

Beware of the Too Liberal Use of Salt.
Salt draws the juices from beef In
corning, toughens the fiber, makes it
very Indigestible and less nutritious.
On cucumbers it draws out the water,
toughens the fiber and renders them
very Indigestible. Salt acts in exactly
the same way on fish as on meat. There
are two ways of considering these
changes. I would hardly say that salt
destroys the food value, although it
robs the flesh of part of its food value
by making It less digestible. Mrs. S. T.

Free Ice Fountains.
The Woman's Auxiliary of the
Chnrch Temperance society, in New
York, supports 12 free ice water foun
tains in the tenement house districts.
They are in operation from May 1 to
October 1, and many, letters have been
received telling of the constant stream
of children with pitchers, draymen
and others who have enjoyed them.
The great increase this season in the
price of ice makes it prohibitory for the
poor, and therefore the fountains will
prove even more of a blessing than
heretofore. It costs $200 to erect one
of these fountains', and the society de
sires to extend the system.

this year and considering the fact that

DIAFNI89 CANNOT BE CURST
By local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets in
flamed von have a rumbling sound or imper
fect hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma
tion can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine esses out ot ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused bv catarrh) that can
not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Bend for
