FACIAL PARALYSIS Nervous Distortion of Face Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. What appears to be a slight nervous attack inay be the forerunner of a severs disorder. No nervous sufferer should neglect the warning symptoms, hut should see that the starved nerves are nourished before the injury to the deli cate organism has gone to an extent that renders a cure a difficult matter. The nerves receive their uourishm ent through the blood, the same ns every other part of the body, and the best nerve tonic and food is Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. The experience of Mr. Harry Bemis, of Truthville, Washington county, N. Y., substantiates this. “I had been feeling badly for n long time,” said Mr. Bemis, “and in the early part of September, 1902,I wascom Selled to quit work on account of my ill ealtli. My trouble was at first ex treme nervousness, then my sight be came affected aud I consulted an oculist who said-1 was suffering from paralysis. He treated mo for some time, hut 1 got no benefit. I tried another doctor nnd again failed to obtain auy relief. My nervousness increased. Slight noises would almost make me wild. My mouth was drawn so I could scarcely eat and one eye was affected so 1 could hardly see. I had very little use of my limbs, in fact I was almost a complete wreck. “ I am all right now and am at work. That f.s because I followed my wife’s ad vice and took Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. She had used the same remedy herself with the most gratifying results and she I persuaded me to try them when it ap- i peared that the doctors were unable to help me. They acted very surely in my i case; my face came hack into shape and in time I was entirely well.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all druggists onjjy mail by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.

That poison Is a civilizing agent Is the startling statement of Hollis W. Field In his Interesting article, "Poison Man's Best Friend" In the February Technical World Magazine. Says Mr. Field: "Strangely anomalous as It may ap pear, the existence of active poisons In the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms of nature has done more for the development of modern civilized man than have all the other Innocuous elemental things which aboriginal man found to his hand. These active poisons were man's first stimulus to first adap tation of poison to the uses of man. The aborigine found himself at once the hunter and the hunted of creation. Whether as hunter or the hunted, he was a pygmy compared with many of the carnivorous neasts of his envir onment. He saw that whereas his own considerable physical force and power were as nothing to some of these crea tures, the fang of the serpent was all compelling. Where the poisonous ser pent struck with poisoned fang and killed Its quarry, he saw It eat without discomfort or Injury. To kill his own food through the venom of the ser pent must have been one of man’s first elaborated mental processes. As this aborigine applied the venotn of the serpent to his arrow, and later blended It with the poisons of the vegetable world, hu may be said to have grown In mental stature.” FALL WHEAT RAISING IN AL BERTA. The Spring: Wheat Area* Rapidly Increasing. It is only n few short years since the impression prevailed that a large portion of the Canadian West was unfitted for agriculture. To such an extent did this impression prevail that districts larger than European princi palities were devoted solely to ranch ing purposes, and flocks and herds roamed the ranges. But the agricul turist was doing some hard thinking, and gradully experiments were made, slowly at first but surely later on. As a result, to-day in Southern Alberta, which was looked upon as the “arid belt,” large quantities of the finest wheat in the world are now grown, and so satisfied are the farm ers and buyers that the industry has passed the experimental stage that elevators by the score have been erect ed In the past two years and others are in course of erection, to satisfy the demands that will he made upon them in the near future. Manitoba “No. 1 Hard” spring wheat has achieved a world-wide rep utation, and there can be no question that ere long “No. 1 Hard” winter wheat from Alberta will attain simi lar repute. The great market for this production will undoubtedly be the Orient, and, with increased railway facilities and the erection of addition al elevators and flouring mills, a large ly increased acreage will be broken to winter wheat. The increase of pop ulation in Southern Alberta in the past year has been largely due to settlers from the United States, who have brought in capital, and enterprise, and who have been uniformly successful in their undertakings. A few more such years of growth and "Turkey Bed" winter wheat will wave from Moose Jaw to the foothills. Informa tion regarding lands of the Fall and Spring wheat belts can be obtained of any Canadian Government agent. Would Help Him Out. From Judge.

The total distributive sales for 1905 exceeded 0200,000,000. This total Is realized from the sale of fresh meats (beef, mutton and pork), provisiors, produce (poultry, butter and eggs), soaps, glues, oils, bones, fertilizers, feathers, casings, hides, wools, pelts and other by-prod ucts derived from cattle, sheep, hogs and poultry. Margin of Profit. The Industry is operated on a mar gin of less than 2 cents to each dol lar of sales. Swift & Co. do not sell at retail. Their entire output is sold at wholesale to many thousands of dealers in various parts of the world. There are hundreds of local slaughter ers throughout the United States, who buy their live stock in competition with the packer doing an interstate and international business. Likewise the packer must sell In competition with the local slaughterers. There are no secret processes in the industry, no complicated and expensive factories, and as live stock can be purchased in almost every hamlet and city, and the preparation of meats Is simple in the extreme, local slaughtering will long remain a factor in the production of fresh meats and provisions. Economic Advnnfaffes. The large packing houses will, how ever, always have these advantages; Locations at the chief live stock cen ters, with the opportunity to buy the best live stock; manufacturing in large quantities, at the minimum of ex pense; utilization of all waste mate rial; refrigeration; mechanical appli ances; highly efficient business man agement. These advantages are re flected in the quality of the packer’s output, a quality that has reached Its highest development in the products bearing the name and brand of "Swift.” Purchasing: Live Stock. The principal live stock centers are Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha, St Louis, St Joseph, St. Paul and Fort Worth. The same methods of purchas ing cattle, sheep and hogs prevail at all cities. At Chicago, which la the largest market there are about two hundred and fifty buyers, representing packers, local slaughterers In varloui cities, and exporters. Of this number, less than a score are employed by Swift & Company. The farmer ships his live stock to Chicago, consigns them to a commis sion firm at the Union Stock Yards, who sees that they are unloaded and put In pens. Then the buyers Inspect them, make their offers to the commis sion dealer, who accepts or rejects ns , his Judgment dictates. All buying must be finished at 3 o’clock each day, and the buyer must p-y spot cash. If the commission man has no satisfactory offers, he can hold his stock over to the next day. He gets his commission from the farmer, and naturally strives to get the highest possible price for his client Wholesale Distributing Houses. A wholesale distributing house la a giant refrigerator, but Instead of shelves there are trolley rails, from which are suspended hooks to hang the carcasses. Some of the houses cost as much as a hundred thousand dollars to build and equip. As a rule they are of pressed brick, the Insides being lined— floor, walls and celling—with highly polished hardwood. The floors are cov ered dally with fresh sawdust and all are kept spotlessly clean. There are over three hundred of these wholesale houses In various cities of the United States, and the public Is always wel come to visit them. Packing Plants. All the Swift & Company plants are located at the great live stock markets, In the heart of the great agricultural sections, where can be purchased the finest grades of cattle, sheep and hogs. We have seven packing plants, employ ing at each from two to eight thousand persons. The following gives the locations and sizes of the different plants. Fscklng Plants.

The housewife makes no greater ef fort to keep her kitchen clean than we do to keep In sanitary and hygienic condition our abattoirs. They are thoroughly scrubbed at the close of each day’g operations, and automatic appliances are used wherever possible In order to eliminate the personal han dling of meats. Rigid rules governing these points are strictly enforced; lax ity means dismissal. Visitors Always Welcome. No other Industry in the world gives such a cordial welcome to visitors as Swift & Co. We keep open house the year around, and maintain a corps of specially trained guides, with special elevators and rest rooms. In one year we have entertained over a quarter of a million of men and women; In one day—Grand Army Day, 1901—we en tertained 23,000. Among our visitors have been ambassadors from foreign governments, princes, noblemen and distinguished citizens from all lands and eminent folks from every State In the Union. We wish to familiarize the public with our methods, and the best way to do that Is to let the public see for Itself. We have no secret process es or methods in any department.

From the Brooklyn Life. “Why/ said the ticket seller, “is this circus like a bad cigar?” “Because,” replied the lion king, “the band is its chief attraction.” “And,” offered the bareback rider, “it takes such a lot of puffs to keep it going.” “No,” remarked the ticket seller, pre paring to run, “because all who buy it sit in tiers after being roped in.“ SORES ON HANDS. Suffered for a Long Time Without Relief—Doctor Afraid to Touch Them—Cured by Cuticura. “For a long time I suffered with sores on the bands which were Itching, painful, and disagreeable. I had three doctors and derived no benefit from any of them. One doctor said he was afraid to touch my hands, so you must kuow how bad they were; another said I never could be cured; and tbe third said the sores were caused by tbe dip ping of my hands in water In the dye bouse where I work. I saw in the pa pers about tbe wonderful cures of the Cuticura Remedies and procured some of the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. In three days after the application of the Cuticura Ointment my hands began to peel and were bet ter. The soreness disappeared, and they are now smooth and clean, and I am still working in the dye-house. Mrs. A. E. Maurer, 2340 State St., Chi cago, 111., July 1, 1905.'’_ He Didn't Go There.

April 15. 19QL How She Traveled Half Fare. From tlie Milwaukee Sentinel. "A new way of riding on a railroad at half fare came to my attention at Chey enne, Wyo., a few days ago," said C. L. Willis, a Latin professor whose home Is at Yankton, S. D. "I was taking a long trip'from the Pacific coast and naturally became fatigued with nothing to do. I noticed a little girl In the same ear for hundreds of miles, and us she appeared to be entirely alone I decided to divert myself by conversation with her. "Her dresses reached to her knees, her hair was braided down her back, her cheeks were fresh and rosy, and she talked along demurely and easily about all sorts of things. I bought her candy and talked to her Just as one would talk to any little girl of 12 years. I gave her large dose3 of advice about what a girl of 12 should do, and how long she should wait before permitting herself to become Infat uated with any man. At last I asked her how old she was. “ 'I am 22,’ she said. ‘I am going to visit my grandmother In Montreal, Canada, and, as it is a long and costly trip, X de cided to go as a child and pay half fare.' ” Worth Knowing —that Allcock’s are the original and only genuine porous piasters; all other so-called porous plasters are imitations.
