Cures When Doctors Fall
Mrs Frank Chiasson Patterson La writes
June Sth 1901 I had malaria fever in very
bad form was under treatment by doctors but
as soon as I stopped taking their medicine the
fever would return I used a sample bottle of
Herbine found it helped me Then bought two
bottles which completely cured me I feel
grateful to you for furnishing such a splendid
medicine and can honestly recommend it to
those suffering from malaria as it will surely
cure them 30c bottle at A McMillens

Nowhere in North America will you

than the fresh water cargo tank un

which thrusts a long pumping pipe
called the leg down through her
hatchway Mount the gangplank
dodging the spinning ropes that make
your head reel stumble about on the
dark deck look down down down
through tho open hatch and zounds
what a sight The hold glows with
electricity It is misty with blown
dust It roars with mechanical activ
ity
An enormous steel shovel big as
the inside of a house and manipulated
by countless Hying ropes charges back
and forth through the whole length of
the ship pitching the yellow grain be
fore it and heaping it up where the leg
can get hold of it to whisk it into the
bin that is somewhere up in the sky
Lenoatli in the hold an army of blue
clad men with wooden scoops barely
dodge the deadly shovel as they swing
the grain iuto its path

All Cheese Is Densely Populated
Professor Adametz who devoted con
siderable time to the study of the fra
grant subject said that the population
of an ordinary cheese when a few
weeks old is greater than the number
of persons upon the earth
Professor Adametz made some inter
esting researches dealing with the mi
nute organisms found in cheese From
a microscopic examination of a soft
variety of Gruyere cheese ho obtained
the following statistics In fifteen
grains of cheese when perfectly fresh
from 90000 to 140000 microbes were
found and when tho cheese was sev
enty days old the population had in
creased to SO000O in each fifteen
grains An examination of a denser
cheese at twenty five days old proved
it to contain 1200000 in each gram
about fifteen grains and when forty
five days old 2000000 in the same
small particle
Spiders Are Industrious
No small insect ever escapes from
the wejb of a spider a fact which is
not to be wondered at when it is con
sidered that an ordinary sized snare
may contain as many as 120000 viscid
globules The spinner is constantly
engaged in repairing injuries to the
web inflicted by wind stray leaves or
captured insects Once a day the whole
snare is subjected to rigorous examina
tion and any broken or loosened
threads are adjusted Cornhill Maga

Winter thunder is considered through
out Europe to be of very ill omen but
April thunder is considered to be very
beneficial In Devonshire and other
cider counties of England there is a
saying that when it thunders in April
you must clean up the barrels in
readiness that is for a plentiful crop
of apples
The French consider April thunder
to be indicative of a good yield from
their vineyards and cornfields
