Mothers should always keep in good bodily health. They owe it to their children. Yet it is no unusual sight to see a mother, with babe in arms, coughing violently and exhibiting all the symptoms of a consumptive ten dency. And why should this danger ous condition exist, dangerous alike to mother and child, when Dr. Bochee’s German Syrup would put a stop to it once? No mother should be without this old and tried remedy in the house —for its timely use will promptly cure any lung, throat or bronchial trouble in herself o'r her children. The worst cough or cold can be speedily cured by German Syrup; so can hoarseness and congestion of the bronchial tubes. It makes expectoration easy, and gives instant relief and re-freshing rest to the cough-racked consumptive. New trial bottles, 25c; large size, 75c. At all druggists. Very Low Rates to Denver, Col.

Will l.eurn Anything llin Muscle* Ciui Perform, Kxpert horsemen believe tliat a horse can be taught to ilo anything that it is po. sible for an animal so formed and to be utterly fearless. Thus we know of horses rushing into battle with a fearlessness that is magnltimit, al though in the beginning of their lives they may have been foolishly timid, shying at everything unusual that hap pened to be seen in their travels. In order to teach a horse fearlessness he must he accustomed to all sorts of lights and sounds. lie must come to know that because something that lie sees or hears is unusual it does not fol low that it is harmful, for it is the un usual things that frighten him. The horse is an animal of one idea at a time and is not able to discriminate, so say the men who have made a study of the horse. While he will travel along quietly close by the roar of a train, he may tremble at the flutter of a piece of loose paper flying in the wind. It is not the frightfulness of the object that seems to alarm him, but the unfamil iarity of it. Horse trainers say that the mistakes made in “breaking” nnd training n colt is tliat it is too often done in the seclusion of some country road Instead of amid the sights and sounds that the animal must necessari ly become familiar with later. As soon as the horse becomes famil iar with anything and has learned to believe that it will not hurt him he will stand quietly or trot along peace fully, even though all sorts of noises nnd queer sights are about him. Thus tlie artillery horse will stand amid the roar of cannons, being used to the noise nnd not knowing that the sound predicts anguish and death. It is well to accustom a horse to unusual sounds as soon as possible after he is trained for riding or driving. It renders him safe and docile, even though he be a spirited animal. A certain trainer of horses said that an ideal school for horses would contain thrashing ma chines, pile drivers, steam drills, elec tric, steam nnd elevated cars, n band of martial music and a gang of quarry men blasting rock. A horse that was drilled among such n bedlam as this would indeed prove immune to strange noises. The gentle family horse, petted by man and child, is not always train ed to all this, yet he often makes a use ful and faithful animal, loved by Ida owner and evidently making some re turn of affection.—Detroit Tribune. COMPENSATION. All Tilings Are to Be Had If One Will but Pay the Equivalent. Life consists almost wholly of buy ing, selling, paying. There are no gifts, nothing that docs not call for an equivalent. If we cannot pay for gifts In kind we must pay in gratitude or service or we shall rank as moral bank rupts. If I would have a good situation I must pay for it not only in labor, bul in promptness, intelligence, faithful ness and f»iod manners. If I would have good service I must pay not only In money, but in consideration, recog nition, appreciation, fairness. I cud hold no one to me if I misuse him. All things are to be had for the buy ing. Would you have friends? Then pay the price. The price of friendship is to be worthy of friendship. The price of glory is to do something glori ous. The price of shame is to do some thing shameful. Friendship, glory, honor, admiration, courage, infamy, contempt, hatred, art all in the market place for sale at a price. We are buying and selling these things constantly as we will. Even beauty Is for sale. Plain women can gain beauty by cultivating grace, ani mation, pleasant speech, intelligence, helpfulness, courage or good will. Beauty is not in the features alone; it is in the soul also. Good will buys good will, friendli ness buys friendship, confidence be gets confidence, service rewards serv ice, and hate pays for hate, suspicion for suspicion, treachery for treachery, contempt for ingratitude, slovenliness, laziness and lying. We plant a shrub, a rosebush, an or chard, with the expectation that they will pay us back. We build roads, mend harness and patch the roof with the same expectation. We will trust even these unconscious things to pay their debts. Some of our Investments are good and some are bad. The good qualities we acquire—moderation, industry, cour tesy, order, patience, candor—are sound investments. Our evil institutions and habits are bad Investments, involving us in losses. We become debtors to them, and they are exacting creditors, forcing payment in full in money and labor and sometimes in blood, agony, tears, humiliation or shame.—From “Balance: The Fundamental Terity," by Orlando J. Smith. They Were Alt Right. He was a typical backwoods farmer. Ills first visit to a city restaurant, how ever, had taken away none of the ap petite ho had at home, where every thing was placed In large dishes on the center of the table and each ono help ed himself. The waiter had piled the food aronnd the plate In the customary little dishes, which the farmer cleaned up In turn. Settling back In his chair, he hailed the passing W'aiter: "Hey, there, young man! Your sam ples are all right. Bring on the rest of the stuff.”—Judge. a w at('ii'n variation. As to the sympathetic vagaries of watches a correspondent writes: "I dis covered some years ago that It was the metal buelrie of my braces that caused the irregularities of my own particular watch.

SWEET PRUNE PLUM September 1, 1903, three bushels of plums were picked from one five year old tree in E. I). Hammond’s orchard of Sweet Prune plums. The tree com menced to bear two years after plant ing and is bearing every year. It is the only Prune Plum that has been a success with me and I have tried many kinds. It stood the dry years, 1893 and 1894, and the hard winter of 1899 and bore fruit the following sea son. It is a grand success for North eastern Nebraska. It fs a dark purple in color, large size, skin can be easily removed and can be pitted liki a free stone peach. They are excellent for canning and preserves and are so sweet that they require very little sugar. I sold this plum at #2.50 to $:i.00 a bushel the past season when other varieties of sour plums were selling for 75 cents to a #1.00 a bushel. It has taken first premium at the Lincoln State fair, and limbs ana brances loaded with plums, shipped to the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo, New York, were shown in the Nebraska fruit exhibt that took one of the gold medals. I also received an honorable mention diploma on this plum from the Pan-American exposi tion. We believe this plum has more good vualities, and is the best plum in existance for this whole northwestern country. If you plant some of these trees you will be well paid. We have a choice fine lot of five to six foot trees to seel for the Spring of 1905. These treets were grown from grafts cut off these bearing treets that bore these plums, and they will bear fruit at two or three years old if planted and are sute to be genuine.. If you want some of these trees send your order early and get the best plum in existence. Trees five to six feet $1.25 each; $12.00 per dozon. Six trees for $6.00. The only way you can be sure of gettitg this plum true to name grafted from my bearing trees is to send your order direct to me. Trees delivered free to any rail road town.
