sixteen months of age his face , hands and
arms "were in a dreadful state. The
eczema spread all over his body. We had
to put a mask or cloth over his face and
tie up his hands. Finally we gave him
Hood's Sarsaparilla and in a few months
lie was entirely cured. Today he is a
healthy boy. " Mrs. Inez Lewis , Baring ,

Maine Blueberries.
Washington county's blueberry crop
has netted this year a revenue of
more than $1,000,000 , according teState
State Horticulturist Albert K. Gardner
of Rockland. This industry was start
ed but a few years ago in that county
and the yield this year is the largest
yet obtained there. One grower real
ized $75 from a few bushes which he
set out in his orchard as a "side is
sue. " A man near Cherryfleld is said
to have raked blueberries from the
Tines just as cranberries are gathered.
It is stated that fabulous prices are
paid for rental of blueberry lands and
"blueberry factories and the canning
factories are still running. Kennebec

FROM TEXAS
Some Coffee Facts From the Lone
Star State.
From a beautiful farm down in Tex
as , where gushing springs unite to
form babbling brooks that wind their
sparkling way through flowery meads ,
comes a note of gratitude for delivery
from the coffee habit.
"When my baby boy came to me
five years ago , I began to drink
Postum , having a feeling that it would
be better for him and me than the old
kind of drug-laden coffee. I was not
disappointed in it , for it enabled me , a
small , delicate woman , to nurse a
bouncing , healthy baby 14 months.
"I have since continued the use of
Postum for I have grown fond of it ,
and have discovered to my joy that it
has entirely relieved me of a bilious
habit which used to prostrate me two
or three times a year , causing much
discomfort to my family and suffering
to myself.
"My brother-in-law was cured of
chronic constipation by leaving off
coffee and using Postum. He has be
come even more fond of it than he
was of the old coffee.
"In fact , the entire family , from the
latest arrival ( a 2-year-old who always
calls for his 'potie' first thing in the
morning ) , up to the head of the house ,
think there is no drink so good or so
wholesome as Postum. " Xanie given

Vouchers for New State School.
The state board of public lands and
buildings will be considered a depart
ment of the state university for the
next several months , insofar as the
university authorities are concerned
in the approval of vouchers required
by the board of expenditures in erect
ing the plant of the new state agricul
tural school at Curtis. Chancellor
Avery signed the first voucher pre
sented by the board and it now awaits
the approval of President Allen of the
board of regents. The university
takes the position that the legislature
has practically made the board of
public lands and buildings a division
of the university for the purposes of
this particular act.
Price on Cadet Uniforms Reduced.
While the general cost of living for
a number of years past has been
mounting with great rapidity , the
price of one big item for the univer
sity cadet has been just as rapidly
tumbling downward. The price of ca
det uniforms for this year has been
cut again , and the amateur soldier
can now fully equip himself for $11.20.
Five years ago his cadetship had to
dole out seventeen dollars for his uni
form. This was cut to $14.50 , then
$13.50 , next $11.50 , and this year it
comes down to $11.20.

did not sign his name. Stamps from
Manila , Yucatan , Peru and Cuba were

Worms Injure Fail Wheat.
During the past week the state en
tomologist's office has been hooded
with reports of injury to fall wheat
by cutworm-like caterpillars. Practi
cally all of these reports came in dur

ninth day of September and the third
day of October. The trouble seems to
be confined almost entirely to the ex
treme eastern part of Lancaster and

Increased Requests for Serum.
Requests for hog cholera serum
have shown an increase of 50 per

a more general understanding of the
work of the agricultural college is a
question. Dr. Gain believes that both
influences figure in the advance.

meek as a lamb in her present retreat
at the asylum at Hastings. Since her
transfer to the asylum she has be

Rampant Bull in School House.
Richardson County. Miss Sailors
and her pupils of Fairview , a country
school about turee miles south of
Verdon , had an experience that will
be remembered a life time when a 2-
year-old steer rushed madly into the
school room.

tle which Carey Higgins had bought
from Graham Jones , and when placed
oa the scales for weighing had be
come greatly frightened. Mr. Higgins
and" three men were driving the cattle
to his home about nine miles north of
Verdon , and had only proceeded a
short distance until they reached the
school , where teacher and pupils were
requested to leave the yard and enter
the building. Miss Sailors left the
door open and the angry and. excited
steer rushed into the school room.
Miss Sailors and her pupils made
their escape through the other door.
The animal worked havoc with the
furnishings.

completely recovered.

doing so met his death. Either the
gun was cocked and the jar caused

tle wire hanging like a key to the seat
struck the triggers. The loads enter
ed the abdomen and the lad fell over
dead.

EVER TAKE A MUSIC BATH ?
They Are as Good fop the Soul ,
Holmes Says , as Water for
the Body.
One must be educated , no doubt , to
understand the more complex and dif
ficult kinds of musical composition. Go
to the concerts where you know that
the music is good , and that you ought
to like it whether you do or not. Take
a music bath once or twice a week for
a few seasons , and you will find that It
Is to the soul what the water bath is
to the body. I wouldn't trouble myself
about the affectations of people who
go to this or that series of concerts
chiefly because it is fashionable. Some
of these people whom we think so
silly will perhaps find , sooner or later ,
that they have a dormant faculty
which is at last waking up , and that
they who came because others came ,
and began by staring at the audience ,
are listening to a newly found de
light. Everyone of us has a harp un
der the bodice or waistcoat , and if it
can only once get properly strung and
tuned it will respond to all outside
harmonies. Oliver Wendell Holmes.
PIMPLES ON FACE 3 YEARS
"I was troubled with acne for three
long years. My face was the only part
affected , but it caused great disfigure
ment , also suffering and loss of sleep.
At first there appeared red , hard
pimples which later contained white
matter. I suffered a great deal caused
by the itching. I was in a state of
perplexity when walking the streets
or anywhere before the public.
"I used pills and other remedies but
they failed completely. I thought of
giving up when nothing would help ,
but something told me to try the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment. I sent for
a Cuticura Booklet which I read care
fully. Then I bought some Cuticura
Soap and Ointment and by following
the directions I was relieved in a few
days. I used Cuticura Soap for wash
ing my face , and applied the Cuticura
Ointment morning and evening. This
treatment brought marvelous results
so I continued with it for a few weeks
and was cured completely. I can
truthfully say that the Cuticura Rem
edies are not only all , but more than
they claim to be. " ( Signed ) G. Bau-
mel , 1015 W. 20th Place , Chicago , 111. ,

Hillocks of Vegetation.
At this time of the year farmers are
busy making miniature mountains on
their holdings , mountains that will be
scattered over the countryside before
the winter is over.
The mountains in question are those
Termed of vegetable produce that must
be kept for several months , and sold
as occasion requires. Potatoes , beet
root , carrots and turnips are raised
from the ground -September and
stored.
The farmer calls his hillock of vege
tables a "clamp. " He makes it on a
piece of high ground near the home
stead , so that it may not be flooded ,
and many a big grower has clamps a
quarter of a mile long.
First , a shallow ditch is dug on the
piece of land selected. The base of this
is lined with straw , and upon the straw
the roots are heaped up firmly and
carefully , till they resemble an elon
gated cone.
Over the sides of the cone more
straw is laid , and on that again earth
or , better still , tufts , with their grassy
sides inwards. Bricks will not keep
out frost , but straw will , and a well-
made clamp is frost proof , and also
damp proof.

Than His Stomach
A strong man is strong all over. No man can be
strong who is suffering from weak stomach with its
consequent indigestion , or from some other disease
of the stomach and its associated organs , which im
pairs digestion and nutrition. For when the stomach
is weak or diseased there is a loss of the nutrition
contained in food , which is the source of all physical
strength. When a man "doesn't feel just right , "
when he doesn't sleep well , has an uncomfortable
feeling in the stomach after eating , is languid , nervous , irritable and despond *
ent , he is losing the nutrition needed to make strength.
Such a man should use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. It cares diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. It enriches the blood ,
invigorates the liver , strengthens the kidneys , nourishes
the nerves , and so GIVES HEALTH 3XD STRENGTH TO
THE WHOLE BODY.
