The remains were laid to rest in the Volo cemetery. • "He giveth His beloved sleep, sweet sleep;" To us on earth his voice Is stilled; And should we sorrow at his death, or weep Remembering that this loss He willed? At peace he rests within his Saviour's arms, At peace, while we sad vigils keep. In love He rolds him safe from all life's harm.

Secret of His .Suc­ cess. * People in the neighborhood of Cres-* ton, Iowa, are amazed at the number of eggs that this man drives to market with. When asked what was the cause of his hens being so prolific, he stated it was all in a certain compound he was using, that kept his hens in good con­ dition and furnished them with the proper stimulus to egg production. American Poultry Mixture is the name of it, and is made by Amqjican Mfg. Co., Terre Haute, Ind. Every man in the poultry business is interested in the health of his hens and their laying ca­ pacity. In the egfcs lie his profits. This mixture is guaranteed to increase the production of eggs 100 per cent or money refunded. It will do more than three times as much as the same amount of any other compound. It is concen­ trated in form and the result of years of practical experience in the poultry business. There is absolutely no doubt as to what it will do, and you are in­ vited to try it at the expense of the company. Send $1.00 for a sample package and if doesn't do the work you get your money back. This is fair and is made to induce practical poultrymen to give it a trial. It is also a sure pre­ ventive of such diseases as the terrible oholera and roup which create such havoc in all parts of the country. It acts directly on the craw and gizzard and is a thoroughly scientific prepara­ tion. The manufacturers guarantee every package or refund purchase money. l£ your druggist don't sell American Poult­ ry Mixture, he's behind the age.

Story, M The Beautiful "Blue" Danube. riA German gentleman of an inquisit­ ive turn of mind has been watching the waters of the Danube for several months with the object of determining their exact colors. He says, indeed, that he studied them for a year with the following result: During eleven days they were brown, during forty-six yellow, during fifteen of a dirty green hue, during forty-five bright green, during sixty-nine dark green, during forty-six of an emerald color, during sixty-four of a grayish yellow and dur­ ing some other days of no distinct color. He insists, however, that they were never blue--a statment which will seem strange to many who remem­ ber that the most celebrated dance of the "waltz king" derives its title from the "blue" waters of the Danube.
