The historic home of the Marquis
de Talleyrand is now an unsentimental
railroad yard in Jacksonville, Fla.,
writes Victor Smith from there.. He
lived here during his voluntary exile
from 1784 to 1796. At a relent exhi
bition of some relics some of the -old
furniture which belonged to him was
shown to the public. Over the front
gate of his place, when his successor
and heir was a resident of Jackson
ville, was a board bearing this legend:
"The Public Generally Welcome, ex
cept ; ," mentioning the name
of a man he hated. Not long ago the
property was sold to the Baxter Lum
ber company, and the beautifully
adorned back yard is now all railroad
tracks and naval stores.
Riding on a Shark.
One of the more wonderful fish sto
ries of the century is told in the New
York Press of Dr. Ralph Smith, a
noted surgeon of Jacksonville. While
In bathing in surf about up to his
waist over on the East eoast a big
shark swam between his legs, forcing
him to a sitting posture and swimming
out to sea with his burden astride.
The sensation nearly cost the doctor
his hair and whiskers. He declares he
was on the shark's back fully half a
minute. When the monster got in
deep water he slid off.

Kaowa How to Keep Her Corps
la Rood Health.
Ogderi, Utah, Jan. 12, 1901. (Spe
cial.) The Pacific Coast Division of
the Salvation Army, whose noble work
in the interests of fallen humanity has
done so much for this western country,
has Its headquarters in this city. One
of the brightest and most enthusiastic
workers is Lieut Miss Mabel Clarice
Hunt Everyone knows how these de
voted people parade the streets day or
night, exposing themselves to all kinds
of weather, that no opportunity may
be lost of rescuing some poor unfortu
nate from sin and suffering. In some
cases, their recklessness in thus expos
ing themselves has been commented
upon as almost suicidal. Their answer
to such criticisms invariably i3 their
unfailing faith in the Divine injunc
tion to "do right and fear not" Lieut
Hunt explains one of the means she
employs to keep her "Soldiers" in good
health, as follows:
"I have found Dodd's Kidney Pills of
great value in cases of Kidney and
Liver Trouble and Diseases contracted
from severe colds. Several of our lads
and lassies have been repeatedly ex
posed to cold weather and rain, and
have spoken for hours out of doors,
often with wet feet and chilled to the
marrow. As a consequence of this ex
posure, Pulmonary Trouble, Rheu
matism and Kidney Disorders often en
sue. In such cases I always advise
Dodd's Kidney Pills, for I have no
ticed better results, quicker relief, and
more lasting benefit from the use of
Dodd's Kidney Pills in such cases than
from all other medicines I know of
combined. They cleanse the blood,
regulate the system and destroy dis
ease." A medicine which can do what Lieut.
Hunt says so positively Dodd's Kidney
Pills do is surely worth the attention
of all who suffer with any form of
kidney Trouble, Rheumatism, or Blood
Disorders.

The Veteran's It BatUe.
The veteran sits in his easy chair on
his porch at the hour of noon.
And looks thro' the clouds of his long
stemmed pipe o'er the 'bountiful
meadows of June,
Till the fire dies out of the odorous
leaves that under their ashes are
. hid,
And the fire is quenched in his yet
keen eye by the drop of its trem
ulous lid;
Then he nods and he dreams, forgetful
of all the mortgage, the crops,
and the rain:
For the bugles and drums of the long
ago are echoing aloud in his
brain.
The bugles and drums have ceased,
have ceased, the cannon roar not
on the hill;
The stillness of noon has been broken
alone by the pipes of the locust
' shrill:
He slips from the arms of his easy
chair and lies outstretched on
the floor.
As he fell from his horse in his younger
days and lay in the dust and the
gore. '
The doctor will come and mutter "his
heart," but never a doctor can
know
He was killed by the bullet that
wounded him once in a battle of
long ago.

Wbea Great Was la a Foe
Charles A. Boutelle, member of con
gress from Maine, had a noteworthy
naval record before he entered the
fields of journalism. and .politics. His
knowledge of the sea is broad and in
timate and it was on account of that
he became the head of the committee
on naval affairs of the house. When
General Grant visited Maine about
1874 his itinerary included a visit on a
yacht to Bar Harbor. Bar Harbor
could at that time be reached only by
boat It was a prominent party that
accompanied the general. With him
were some members of his cabinet, the
governor and senators from Maine and
other officials of greater or less import
ance. Off Rockland the yacht ran into
a fog so dense that nothing was visible
a few feet distant The party assem
bled In the cabin, shut the disagree
able weather outside and made as mer
ry as could well be. Suddenly it was
noticed that Mr. Boutelle was missing
and one of the party ,on going in search
found him, gloomy of- face, outside
leaning against a mast "Come, man,"
called the searcher, "cheer up and join
us in the cabin." "No, thank you,"
was the response. "I'd rather remain
on deck while this fog continues."
"Oh, come along," urged his friend.
"Why, you aren't afraid of a little fog
are you, and you a sailor, too?" "Yes,
I am afraid," hotly responded the fu
ture head of the committee on naval
affairs, "and it's because I am a sailor
that r am afraid. You landlubbers
don't know enough about the sea to
realize the danger you are in. Here
we are in a fog as thick as Pillsbury's
head and as heavy as one of Garcelon's
speeches, off a dangerous coast, and
you expect me to sing and do didoes.
Say," he inquired, "where do you sup
pose the state and national govern
ment would be if this yacht should go
down?" The friend, who was also a
host, had not thought of that aspect of
affairs. But he thought of it in that
light from that moment His face be
came grave and his spirits dropped
until they were lifted by the lifting of

Marrlsfc-e at an Army Feat.
In an article in the December Wo
man's Home Companion, entitled
"Holiday Week at an Army Pest,"
Harriet A. Lusk describes as follows
a military wedding performed at an is
olated post in Arizona: "Such unex
pected things happen in military life!
We nearly lost our breath when in the
midst of our gayety an order came for
Mr. Knox to go to the Philippines. He
and Miss Porter were to be married
next June, and he insisted upon leav
ing her a bride Instead of a fiancee,
hoping she might join him if not soon
recalled. Only a few in the garrison
had known that the order to our sen
ior lieutenant was not wholly unex
pected. The colonel's family had
guarded well the secret The
ceremony, with all Its features, was
so picturesque and so unlike those we
have seen in civilian life. On the af
ternoon of New Year's day blue-coated
soldiers walked with formal tread up
and down the walk which led from the
colonel's quarters to the chapel. At
the former place a national flag almost
hid the little veranda which was trans
formed into a bower "of flowers and
foliage, for the day was warm and dry,
as if nature, too, smiled upon the oc
casion. Soft rugs carpeted the walk to
the gate, and there the bridal party
formed after the guests had been re
ceived. A tiny girl and boy tastefully
gowned formed a fair advance-guard
for the party, and scattered flowers on
the way from the Southwick home to
the chapel. The stage was a mass of
ferns, and in the center was a small
silk American flag. Here and there on
the walls of the chapel were military
ensigns and guidons in beautiful colors,
and a portierre of flags hid the bal
cony, behind which a stringed quartet
struck sweet strains. The ceremony
was performed In front of the stage,
and the solemn words of the ritual
were spoken to the strains of the hid- J
den muBic. Through the ribboned aisle '
the bridal procession retreated and
marched to the colonel's home. The
regimental band played in welcome,
and 6quads of soldiers stood in atten
tion about the lawn, while Mr. and
Mrs. Knox, beneath the national en
sign, received congratulations before
refreshments were served."
Be Walked Nine Miles.
Henry Dorman, the oldest man In
Kansas 102 years recently walked
from his home, nine miles northwest
of Topeka, and called on Penslpn Agent
Leland. Mr. Dorman. bright and
hearty as a man with fifty years less
to his credit. laughed at his own and
other persons' pleasantries. He en
tered the union army with his four
sons in 1863. He was then 65 years
old. says the Topeka correspondent of
I
-c oc Loufa Republic. He belonged
to company P of the 2d Michigan cav
alry. At Richmond he was wounded
in his right hand" and received a pen
sion oi sit month. He has lived for
twenty-six years in Missouri and has
just moved from Lamar to Kansas.
Dorman lives with his grandson. Up
to four years ago he never missed a
day with his ax in the woods. That
was when he was 98 years old. He
felled, cut and ricked a cord of wood
a day what some men of 25 could not
do. "My first pitched battle was at
Gettysburg," said Dorman. "Of course
I was in skirmishes, but that was my
first big battle. I was under Curtis
and Kilpatrick. I was In the battles
of Falling Water and Spotsylvania,
and got into Richmond three times
with the raiders. I was In the army
two years, six months and twenty
days."
Benowlas; Powder.
A lieutenant of the United States
navy tells, in the Boston Herald, a
story about the etiquette of naval sa
lutes. A ship I was on dropped ancnor
in a little Haytian port known to have
a battery in its forts. We gave the na
tional salute, but waited in vain for an
answer. I was sent ashore to demand
an explanation, and was told, wUh
many apologies, that no powder -was
on hand, but that people had been sent
to a neighboring town for it, and the
salute would be returned as soon as it
arrived. This did not please our cap
tain, who sent back ford that if the
salute were not fired by sunset, he
would consider it an insult to the
United States. In answer to this a
dusky Haytian officer, covered with
gilt and trailing a huge sword, came
on board and said that if we would
kindly lend him some powder the sa
lute would be returned at once. The
captain relented, gave him the pow
der, and the booming of twenty-one
guns was soon heard.
"Sentinel" and "Baiar."
Two well-known military terms,
"sentinel" and "hussar." afford capita!
Instances of the remarkable manner
in which a nation does its word-twisting.
At first sight there seems little
connection between the Latin word
sentina, signifying the hold of a ship
and a soldier keeping watch over his
sleeping comrades. The connecting
link is afforded by the word sentinator,
the Roman gentleman who pumped the
holds of Caesar's galleys free of bilge
water. Upon his constant vigilance
depended the lives of the entire ship's
company. Similarly, the word "hus?
t sar" is merely a Hungarian term sig-
I nifying "twentieth." It arose In this
manner: When Matthias Corvinus be
came king of Hungary in 1458 he was
extremely afraid of foreign invasion.
He consequently raised an army by
the simple expedient of commandeer
ing every 20th individual in the land.
Hence the hus3ar.
Conscription la Belglai.
Military service in Belgium Is by
conscription and every lad of 21 is
obliged to submit to the draft. If he
draws a number higher than that of
the number of recruits called from his
district he gets off free and can never
be called again to serve. If, on the
contrary, he draws a number within
the limit, he must serve or furnish a
substitute for whom be pays 1,600
francs ($320). The result of this sys
tem is that the army is made up of
either the sons of the poorest families
of the country or the undesirable char
acters who lend themselves as substi
tutes. The tone of the service has been
lowered to a shocking degree and
right-minded politicians agree that the
army should be composed entirely of
volunteers or else the every-man-a-sol-dler
system adopted. The military
question will now be submitted to a
parliamentary committee composed of
six generals, twelve deputies and all
the ministers of state. Chicago News.
New German Machine.
The new German machine gun re
cently stood the test of its trial with
infantry and cavalry at the maneuvers
so well that it is to be supplied to
the whole army, the regiments on the
western frontier receiving it first. The
gun is mounted with springs on four
wheeled carriages drawn by four
horses. A man to take charge of the
horses is mounted and four others
ride, two on the gun carriage and two
on the limber. The gun has an ex
tremely rapid breach mechanism and
is provided with a bronze water jacket
The limber contains 250 cartridges in
belts, which work automatically and
so rapidly, according to some state
ments, that as many as 500 or 600
shots can be fired within a minute.
The Keetacky a Flae Ship.
Latest reports from the Kentucky,
sent from Gibraltar, show that this,
fine ship bids fair to be a record break
er in the matter of efficiency, for on
her arrival at that point, following a
very successful run across the Atlan
tic, her machinery and boilers were
reported as being in the same condi
tion as when she sailed from New
York. The progress of the Kentucky
to Manila will be watched with deep
interest by the navy department offi
cials, for the anticipation among those
competent to judge Is that this vessel
will be as efficient in the matter of
long and successful cruising as her
illustrious predecessor, the Oregon.

Mr. Goetz, a brewer of Okocum, Aus
tria, was rccenty visited in his office
by two men, Kedzior and Sikora, who
stated that they were delegates of the
"national government" sent to levy a

Goetz said he knew nothing of any
such government and would pay noth

rest him and severely wounded him

ployes, who just then came in. Both
Kedzior and Sikora (together with a
third man they had stationed outside)
were overcome after a desperate re

suspected persons in various parts of

ePSMO
It la to be hoped tkat the avera
farmer will sot be "carried away" by
the aeaamtioMi erica, maid for f at cattle
at the close, of the btcrhaUoael Live
Stock Show. It akoald be understood
that when Advance, the grand cham
pion steer of Aberdeaa-Angus stood.
sold for fl.St per pound on foot at auc
tion that was the result of coafstltfOa
between rival buyers from New York,
Pittsburg and Chicago, and the sale at
the figure mentioned may be coaald"
ered purely of an advertising nature.
The meat could not possibly reimburse
the buyer for the outlay, but it will no
doubt pay him to have the notoriety
consequent upon the sensational pur
chase. The sale of the Kerrlck steers for
115 per hundred weight after they had
won the championship prise in the ex
hibition of carload lots of cattle was
another proud achievement of the
breeders of Aberdeen-Angus cattle, and
this sale may be taken as perfectly
legitimate in that the meat will sell at
a profit even at the fine figure quoted.
Both sales, however, go to show what
can be dons with cattle bred and fed for
beef of the highest possible quality. It
would be difficult to imagine a more
perfect animal than Advance, and the
Kerrlck steers were also of very high
class. The general farmer should learn
from the excellence of these animals,
from their perfection of contour and
even distribution of mellow flesh upon
the best portions of the body that in
order to raise such stock it is absolute
ly necessary to have the right kind of
blood to start with and then to feed in
a proper manner. Such animals as
these do not simply grow up with any
kind of care. The molds must be care
fully chosen; a bull of impressive
stamp must be use! upon the right
sort of heifers and after the progeny
comes It must be fed from the first
moment until the last with the one ob
ject of producing the most and best
beef in the shortest possible time.
This is not cheap nor easy work. The
prime steer cannot be produced at the
same cost as the animal which strug
gles through and Is sold at three or
four years of age; yet when everything
Is taken into account there is not a
very great deal of difference when It is
remembered that the scrub animal re
turns but a poor price for the feed it
has consumed and the time it has re
quired to raise It It may be stated
upon general principles that any man
who owns a productive farm and is
possessed of ordinary Intelligence can
produce steers that will bring a good
price at the Christmas market time U
he will do away with the scrub cows
upon his farm and In their place keep
high-grade females and a bull of one or
other of the beef breeds. It would
even be possible to create a herd of
beef cattle commencing with the origi
nal scrub blood, but this is a slow and
unsatisfactory process and we would
not advise our readers to try It After
a start has been made the calves should
be fed from the first when suckling
their dams and early accustomed to
eating meals and ground oil cake If it
can be had at fairly cheap prices.
The pregnant cow must also be gen
erously fed so as to give the calf a good
start, for the first steps towards early
maturity are of a certainty made in the
womb. If the calf should come into the
world stunted and the cow from
lack of generous feeding should have
poor milk or a deficiency in flow of
milk It will be impossible to make up
the loss later on, just as it is also true
that calf flesh lost cannot well be re
placed by subsequent good feeding. It
is, in short, necessary to breed right,
feed right and fit right to reap the fine
prices for beef paid at the live-stock
exposition.
Air la the Boll.
It has long been known that air in
the soil Is a very important factor in
the growth of plants, and that air per
meates the soil to as great a depth as
the roots of most plants. Perhaps with
plants not aquatic the depth to which
tne roots can permeate is regulated to
a considerable extent by the depth to
which tne air penetrates. How, then,
does the air penetrate the soil? Ex
cept under special conditions, It does
not depend upon the volume of the
pores, but Is Influenced primarily by
tne size of the pores, since the latter
determines almost exclusively the re
sistance offered to the circulation of
the air. The permeability increases as
this resistance diminishes, and is
therefore smaller the smaller the soil
particles, and vice versa.
Of the different soil constituents in
the dry state, clay Is the least per
meable to air; and permeability In
creases generally with the quantity of
quarts present Soils consisting of
humus alone, behave, when dry, sim
ilarly to the coarse-grained sands. In
soila made up of 'constituents varying
considerably from one another in the
size of the particles, the permeability
of the whole mass depends principally
on the finest grained material. The re
markable permeability of most sands
can therefore he reduced considerably
by the admixture of comparatively
small quantities of some fine material,
such as clay, loam or mar.
In the case of stratified soils the per
meability depends entirely on the
finest grained layer, even if the layer
is very thin. In a very Impermeable
soil the permeability is increased to a
remarkable extent by the formation of
the crumbly structure. With an in
crease of humidity the permeability of
a soil for air diminishes and more
strongly the greater the water capac
ity of the soil. All soils rich in clay
and humus become impermeable at a
point below saturation. If a soil Is
wet only in the upper layers the en
trance and exit of the air is hindered
in proportion to the fineness of the
grains. In soils rich In clay and humus
this may result in absolute impermea
bility, even with slight precipitation.
Micalran Forest Beserres.
The Michigan forestry commission
recently held a meeting, attended by
Mr. Skeels, land agent for the state
board of agriculture. He submitted the
following estimates of lands availablo
for forestry purposes: The state has
about 6,000,000 acres of land that has
reverted through delinquent taxes and
about 300,000 acres of tax homestead
lands. About 75 per cent of these lands
were originally covered with a second
growth of timber. There are 2.000,000
acres of what are known as jack pine
plains in Michigan, the timber varying
with the nature of the soil. On the
poorer soil these pines' are scrubby and
of little -value. The stronger lands
bear some black Norways that are val
uable, and also some scattering white
pines, but the latter are of the "buck
wheat" variety and do not have long,
clean bodies. It has been determined
that the character of the timber on the
pise plains does not depend as much
on the soil as it does on the accident of
seed distribution.

First Presbyterian Church of Greensboro, Oa,, tad Its Pastor and Elder.
The day was when men of prom!
nence hesitated to give their testimoni
als to proprietary medicines for publi
cation. This remains true today of
most proprietary medicines. But Pe
runa has become so justly famous, its
merits are known to so many people of
high and low stations, that no one
hesitates to see his name in print
recommending Peruna.
The highest men in our nation have
given Peruna a strong endorsement
Men representing all classes and sta
tions are equally represented.
A dignified' representative of the
Presbyterian church in the person of
Rev. E. G. Smith does not hesitate to
state publicly that he has used Peruna
in his family and found it cured when

erned" was no more thought of than
it had ben during the preceding years
of war.

If a thief were to steal your purse,
and leave a valuable diamond ring in
your pocket, what would you do with
the ring? This is the situation that

complete in the January Century. The
author's new novel. "Dr. North and
His Friends," is in its thirteenth thou

after taking two bottles of Peruna the
trouble almost entirely disappeared.
For this special malady I consider it
well nigh a specific. As a tonic for
weak and worn out people it has few or

Mr. M. J. Ro3sman,a prominent mer

in the Presbyterian church of that
place, has used Peruna.and in a recent
letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.. of
Columbus. Ohio, writes as follows:
"For a long time I was troubled with
catarrh of the kidneys and tried
many remedies, all of which gave me
no relief. Peruna was recommended to
me by several friends, and after using
a few bottles I am pleased to say that
the long looked for relief was found
and I am now enjoying better health
than I have for years, and can heartily
recommend Peruna to all similarly af
flicted. It is certainly a grand medi
cine." M. J. Rossman.

Ainslee's begins the new century
with a leading article on "America's
Largest Waterworks." by H. H. Lewis.
The subject seems particularly appro
priate because the Massachusetts new
system of waterwbrks is designed as
much to meet the neens of the state
fifty years from now as to serve the
people of this decade. Besides, this
colossal feat of engineering will make
Boston possessor of the largest reser
voir in the world. The article is un
usually well illustrated from photo
graphs of the various phases of the
work. "Romances of the Big Mines."
by Eugene Boyland Palmer, is a col
lection of true stories, ranging from
the ridiculous to the tragic, about the
strange freaks fortune plays on pros
pectors and mining men in their search
for wealth.
