Rheumatism
I have found a tried and tested e*tre for Rheu-
tnatism! Not a remedy that will straighten tho
distorted limbs of chronic cripples, nor turn bony
growths back to flesh again. That is impossible.
But I can now surely kill the pains and pangs of
this deplorable disease.
In Germany—with a Chemist in the City of
Darmstadt—I found the lasts ingredient with
which Dr. Shoop s Rheumatic afcmedy was made
a perfected, dependable pres&ption. Without
that last ingredient. I suecessf®y treated many,
many cases of Rheumatism; tmWow, at last. It uni
formly cures all curable cases of this heretofore
much dreaded dis-ase. Those sand-like granular
wastes, found in Rheunyitic Blood seem todissolve
and pass away under tne action of this remedy as
freely as does sugar when added to pure water
And then, when dissolved, these poisonous wastes
freely pass from the system, and the cause of
Rheumatism is gone forever. There is now no
real need—no actual excuse to suffer longer with
out help. We sell, and in confidence recommend

We learn that that Mr. John Seigler
has bought the old burnt mill site on
Shaw’s Creek, with sundry waters pow

He bought from Mr. George Willis
about 49 acres of land with the right
to build a dam 10 feet high across the
creek for $2,000; and also with the right
to raise the dam 8 feet higher if he de
sires, upon payment in proportion for
all additional land flooded, the value
of which, it is estimated, would be
about $1600 more. He has also bought
from Miss Schofield such an area of
land, as must be flooded, for $500.

Sam Pierce, the colored lad who was
accused of having stolen a brooch be
longing to Mrs. A. L. Miller, had his
preliminary examination on Thursday
before Magistrate Smoak and was at

An Unusually Fine Enter
tainment.
The entertainment in the hall over
the postoffice on Thursday night was
an unusually fine one. The Pace-Kling
Recital company is certainly one of
great merit.
Miss Pace is a person of singular
charm, possesses a remarkably sweet
soprano voice. Miss Kling was also
attrac ive and her selections especially
good. And Miss Evans showed musi
cal talent of a very high order.
The attendance was good, l ut would ; . ,

WORTH THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FARM
ERS AND FRUIT-BR0WERS.
Among the best bird triends that the
fruitgrowers have are the woodpeckers,
says Country Life in Americs; their
strong, chisel like beaks and long bar
bed tongues enabling them to secure in
sects which, though being hidden in
side the bark t f trees, are safe from
the attacks of others birds.
Though nearly every kind of bird ex
hibits a preference for sotn-* ( articular
insects, all land birds, from chickadees
to hawks, eat grasshoppers or locus s
during part of the year, the greatest
number besng devoured in August.
In one of the reports of the Depart
ment of Agriculture it w’as stated that
in the eastern had of Nebraska moie
than 160,000,000 locust were eaten daily
by wrens alone. When we consider
that a locust eats fully its own weight
of food daily ; we can form some idea
of the amount of forage that was saved
to the farmers of that region during
the locust season
In the year book of the Department
of Agriculture is a glowing account of
some warblers’ work. “In the month
of May, 1900, when the apple trees had
just expanded rosettes of small leaves
and flower buds, multitudes of warbleis
of several species were seen going
through an orchard, examining these
rosettes, and apparently pecking some
thing from each. An investigation of
the trees not yet reached by the warb
lers showed th»t each rosette contain
ed frem one to a dozen large plant lice,
while a similar investigation of the
trees exp ored by the birds revealed
few of these insects.”
Cuckccosare useful because they eat
caterpillars which are protected from
other birds by tlieir hairy coats. There
is an instance on record whereas many
as 25J caterpillars were found in the
stomach of one cuckoo. Blue-birds do
nothing but good ; insects, all of which
a-e peg:s to a greatei or lesser extent
(except occasional spiders), forminr
more thad three-quarters of their foe ■
Wrens are of great value, as their
f >od consists almost entirely of harm
ful insects. Rosebreasted grosbeak I
and quail help the farmers by eating
im nei se quantity of potato beetles a
pest too well known to need any des' rip
lion, and wliich curiously enough has,
s » far as we Know, very few natural
enemies.
King-birds, like the rest of the fly
catchers, live chiefly on insects, most
of which are injurious to the agricul
turist, Many people condemn kingbirds
because they kill bees; for some un
known reason they invariably select
the drones, so that no harm is done.
