Get s Worth. Why not get your "Money^ Worth" when you buy Fertilisers ? People kick about the price of Corn-struggle for reduotion in the prioe of Flour ana grow ex cited over the way they think that they are being robbed for these necessities. Yet some of them go right ahead paying two or three dollars pet ton more, for their Fertilizers than the actual analysis of the goods will warrant. Too many of UB struggle for reductions that are hard to secure, and often ignore the economies and better values thar are open to every Farmer who will use 'good common sense and discretion in buying Fertilizers. Tou can surely save a considerable percentage of your money, and you can secure much more satisfaction in your farm work if you will only buy your Fertilisers right. Take our celebrated G. W. G. SOLUBLE GUANO for example. It measures right up on ac tual analysis with Guano sold by our competitors at much higher prices-so it is with all our brands, extra values are obtained in each without extra cost to the Farmer. Come and talk over FERTILIZERS with US. If you have any trade in you we can more than give you your ?MONEY'S WORTH; General Manager. TRAMP KINO PLANS UNION. Dr. Ben Heitman Knlei talus Mobo ?loni of New York City. New York, Dec. 17.-Dr. Ben Rolt man, king of Hobodora, ha? turned reformer. To-day ke i nvited all the, boy tramps in tho city to the Bow ery mission. Food was served to keep them quiet, while HIcky Hicks, the Lake Shore Kid, A-No. 1 Cincin nati Red, and other kid panhandlers spoke before a few high-toned char VT ity workers and fluttering hearted philanthropists on "How We'se Kids Ain't So Punk, Arter All." Now, of course, there will bo a .sensation. .Dr. ..Reltman expects it. Six months ago he flung the gaunt let in tho face of Chicago's 400 by givrng a banquet to 100 tramps, ho: boes and "bums" at the Windsor Clifton Hotel. Then he told all the barrel house rounders how badly they were treated. Tho poor beggars who somehow had never realized their misery before, began to dream of mince pie nine times a day, and beds each, with a stove attachment. "How're we'se going to got it?" they asked. "Form a union," exclaimed an am bitious person. "T'ell wld it; dat's work." But. Dr. Reltman is a peculiar ho bo. Ho really works now and then. So the next day he formed the Bro therhood Welfare Association, made himself president, treasurer and quorum. Tho brotherhood lasted two months, and distributed a dime or a quarter to every tramp who was willing to take the elevator np to the third floor of an office building. Dr. Ben Reltman is a sort of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyd*? At timer he is a respectable phy.ilo'.an and a profes sor of bacteriology in tho American College of Surgory and Medicine In Chicago. As such he wears a high collar, ascot and a frock coat. At times, when he fouls the cali of the wild, he leaves a rlWi thht hV'Tl be back In a year or so, dons a ragged coat anti 'rayed trousers, a dirty flannoT shirt, an i goeg forth to beat his way. In this garb ho has gone around the world four times, served forty-two sentence? in jail and ?dept beside every tramp in tho country who is important enough to have un alibi.

A CHARGE OF FRAUD. Sensational Suit FHet? in Connection with Allotment of < "anal Bonds. Washington, Dec. 18.--On the heols of Senator Tillman's speech in the Senate concerning Secretary Cor tolyou's financial methods, George W. Austin, of New York, to-day flied a suit in tho District Supremo Court against tho Secretary, asking that he be restrained from making allot ments of the recent Panama canal bond issue. The bill flied states that tho United States will lose between seven hundred thousand and a mil lion dollars if the bonds are allotted and contends that bids for seven million dollars worth of bonds, sub mitted by Smith and another Now Yorker, wore higher than a major ity of the bids accepted by the sec retary, and that thereby the United States ls defrauded.

America Alone Has Humming Hirds. (Outing Magazine.) Though tho art museums of Eu rope may. have some treasures of which America cannot boas*., our continent has the distinction of a monopoly of the world's supply of humming birds, the gems of all the feathered creation. Of these there are said to bo some 400 species tho 400 we may well call them nearly all of which are peculiar to the tropical regions. Only eighteen cross the borders of tho United States from Moxlco, a ad occur only in our southwestern States. The popular idea Is that the hum mer lives only on honey, gathered from flowers. This ls a mistake. The bird does secure some honey, but its food consists mainly of the small insects which frequent the flowers. Some of these insects are injurious to the blossom, and tho tiny bird fulilils a useful function in destroy ing them. That tho hummer is. in sectivorous is also shown by its habit of catching tiny insects on the wing, which ls occasionally observed. It fills the arteries with rich, red blood, makes new flesh, and healthy men, women and children. Nothing can take its place; no remedy has done so much srood as Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea. 35c.-Tea or Tablets. Dr. J. W. Bell. New Recruiting Station.

(Newberry Observer.) We confess that wo can see no good to come to the country or to tho Democratic party from Senator Tillman's tirade against the Presi dent and the Secretary of the Trea sury, for their Issuing certificates of indebtedness to relieve the money stringency. Thejr purpose was un qustlonably good-to save deposit ors from losing by runs on tho banks, to put more money In circulation for purposes of trade and to restore pub lic confidence. In such circumstances one could readily excuse them for overstepping the strict letter of the law a Jittle, if they di d that-which they, deny, affirming that they acted on able legal advice.
