CANCER A CURE FOUND AT LAST We first discovered that our remedy would destroy the canccr perm, by its curing a can cer on the neck of Mrs. Q. B. Drowley, of Racine, Wis.; her mother died with a cancer, and the doctors had tfiven up Mrs. Drowley, but Septiclde cured her. It cured a very lualipnant cancer on the face of Mrs. Lydia Cole, Bramans, Pa. It curcd cancer of womb for Mrs. John Keep, Petoskey, Mich., after the doctors Bt Ann Arbor University had piven her up. It cured cancer of breast for Mrs. Harry Finn, Waterville, N. Y., after l)r. Kingsley, the noted cancer doctor pi Rome, N. Y., said she could not be cured becuusu it was so near the heart. It cured a bud cancer on the ear of Mrs. Nancy Reese, Harts- burfr. 111. It cured a cancer on the lip of I. R. Carr, Damascus, Ohio. It cured three malignant cancers for Rev. J. IL Stinecipher, Wood Hill, Mo., after specialists had all failed to benefit him. And so we could go on and name hundreds who have been cured of this terrible disease by Septicide.

It must be remembered that the little chick has absolutely no need tor food for the first twenty-four to forty-eight hours after coming out of the shell. Nature has arranged a food tor it, and this is already in process of being digested. So the fear that the little thing will die for lack of nourishment is unfounded. The little piece of sharp bone on the beak at this time can be left on, as it will fall off soon enough for the good of the chick. If it be picked off and the chick fed within a few hours after birth, so much the worse for the chick. When the chicken gets the scale off its beak and really wants food, it will show it with plainness. It will begin to peck at everything around. The first food given should be soft food, as that would be the food that would naturally come to the chick in a state of nature. It has no grit in its crop at this time and con sequently cannot readily use things that have to be ground. In its wild state it would have picked up small bugs and worms. Feed it soft food. One of the best that can be given con sists of stale bread dipped in milk. This should not be wet so much that it will not crumble. Bread newly baked and that is soft and mushy can hardly be recommended for chicks at this age. A little later ground grain of almost any kind may be mixed with milk and feed. One way to improve this is to permit it to soak in the milk for some hours before using. This renders it soft. Sweet milk is best to give at this period, while sour milk and curd may be used later. Andaiuslans. The (Lndalusian is one of the pret tiest fowls of the feathered race, be- ins of a beautiful light and dark blue plumage. It is called the Blue Anda- lusian, and is the only variety of its class. It is not as popular in this country as it should be, owing to the BLUB ANDALUSIAN HEN. sentiment against white skin and bine shanks. English and French poultry- men prefer these qualities in a bird, and with them it is very popular. They are nonsitters and splendid lay ers of large white eggs, averaging in size those of the Minorca. Specimens of their eggs have been seen in com petition and the award of merit be stowed for size and weight. The chicks are hardy, mature early and pullets begin laying when five or six months old. Egg Shell Material. It is comparatively easy to supply material for the shell of the egg. Old mortar pounded, oyster and clam shells ground up, and bones cut up quite fine and ground, all serve the needed purpose. It is far easier to keep the hen supplied with egg-shell material than it is to keep her sup plied with grit. About one-tenth of the weight of the egg is the shell. In 100 pounds of eggs there are ten pounds and over of lime in the form of the shell. When eggs sell for twen ty cents per pound this means that $2.00 has been taken in for lime in the shell, a material that cost nothing as a feed. The better the supply of this material the stronger will be the shell. Weak shells are never desir able. When the supply of lime is cut off the shells are poorly formed and are sometimes so thin that they break too easily. This is a great annoyance to the buyers; It prevents their ready transportation, and it is the cause of frequent accidents with the eggs in the home pantry and kitchen. We have seen eggs with shells so thin that they broke under the pressure pf the thumb and fingers when they were being handled with the usual amount of care. The worst feature is, how ever that the eggs break in the nests and start the hens into the habit of egg-eating. Smut in Oats. Reports from various states say that the oat crop last year was badly cut short by the presence of oat smut, and some people are putting their brains to work to try and find a smut proof oat. It will be far better It these persons will spend their efforts in preventing the smut on the varie ties we now have. It might be pos sible to find an oat that would not yield to smut, but It would probably be a very inferior oat in other re spects. When our grains and fruits become highly developed they become more susceptible to the attacks of fungi. This is without doubt due to the openness of the pores, which give the spores of fungf a better chance to take root. But the very fact that an oat is very susceptible teethe smut should Indicate that it is a rapid grower and big yielder, the large leaf readily taking in the carbonic acid gas from the air to be fixed in the form of starch. It is such an easy matter to pre vent smut in oats, that there seems no good reason for going around It rather than fighting it. We have told in these columns this year how to prevent it in the field and we hope that our readers will not only use the method themselves, but will tell their neighbors about the preventive meas ures necessary. It is not enough for a man to prevent smut in his own fields, though that of course will do a good deal of good. It should be eradi cated from every community, and this can be done by inducing all the grow ers of oats to treat their seed with th« foo&alln dip in some manner. WENT INTO THE "OCEAN.** Amateur Actor's Humorous Expert* ence. at Church Entertainment. A story of disastrous amateur theat ricals in the burg of Millburn, N. J., is printed in the New York Tribune without comment. This is it: One of the actors in an amateur play, "The Lone Fisherman," at a church entertainment here last night, nearly met with a waters death in the most thrilling part of the drama. His involuntary "turn" proved to be the hit of the evening. When the curtain arose Mr. Rlor- dan was discovered sitting on a "rock" that jutted out on the bank of the "ocean." The bank was home-made, and it was not long before there was a landslide and Mr. Riodan was pre cipitated into the "ocean" just as he was uttering some of his most soulful sentiments. There was- a prodigious splash as Mr. Riordan took to the water and a mild panic among the audience. For a moment nothing could be seen but a few faint bubbles rising from the depths. The stage manager came to the edge of the "ocean" and gazed into the depths. "Where are you, Barney?" said he. "In the tub; where did you think I was--on the roof? Give me your hand?" Others came to his assistance and the submerged man was rescued, with his costume sadly bedraggled. He was safe, but the show had to be taken to the shop for repairs. The play will be repeated, it was so successful, but Mr. Riordan says he will sit on the floor next time. The Doctors Failed. Kilgore, O., April 11.--A rather re markable case has Just come to light in this place. Mr. John T. Riegle had been suffering for some time with an aggravated form of Kidney dis ease vhich had caused him a great deal of discomfort. He tried the treatment of several doctors, but did not get any better. At last he chanced to read an adver tisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills, a remedy which has been making many wonderful cures, and he bought some at once and began to use them. He says of the result: "Dodd's Kidney Pills do just what they are advertised to do. I can praise them for the good they have done for me. Thqy cured me com pletely after the doctors had failed and I wish that every poor sufferer could hear of them, for I know they will cure Kidney trouble." „ There seems to be no case of Kid ney Trouble, Rheumatism or Back ache that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure perfectly and permanently. Maybe They Played "Bedelia." Guests at the Shoreham hotel, Washington, were astonished the other evening on seeing the manager order the orchestra to stop playing. The explanation came later. Levi P. Morton, ohce vice president, owns the hotel, and he was there that even ing. About 9 o'clock he called for the manager and said testily: "What's that noise I hear?' The manager re plied that it was the orchestra play ing. "Well, 8top it at once," said Mr. Morton. ' "It's keeping me awake. Maybe I'm too old to enjoy good music and maybe it's a bad orchestra. Anyhow, stop it" Don't Use Stimulants.

This destruction is a universal injury. It not only des troys a valuable asset in the list of the country's resources, but is pro ductive of floods. The forest is the most effective means of preventing Hoods and producing a more regular flow of water for irrigation and other useful purposes. To prevent the mischievous forest fires Congress has enacted a law which forbids setting fire to the woods and forbids leaving fires (camp fires and others) without first extinguish ing the same. The law provides a maximum fine of (5,000, or Imprisonment for two years, or both, if the fire is set ma liciously, and a fine of $1,000, or im prisonment for one year, if the fire is. due to carelessness. It also pro vides that the money from these fines goes to the school fund of the county in which the offense is committed. Commissioner W. A. Richards of the General Land Office, has issued circulars warning the public against carelessness, inasmuch as many fires start from neglected camp fires, and makes the following requests: 1. Do not build a larger fire than you need. 2. Do not build your fires in dense masses of pine leaves, duff and other combustible material, where the fire is sure to spread. 3. Do not build your fire against large logs, especially rotten logs, where it requires much more work and time to put the fire out than you are willing to expend, and where you are rarely quite certain that the fire Is really and completely extinguished. 4. In windy weather and in danger ous places dig a fire hole and clear off a place to secure your fire. You will save wood and trouble. 6. Every camp fire should be com pletely put out before leaving the camp. 6. Do not build fires to clear off land and for other similar purposes without the nearest ranger or the supervisor, so that he may assist you. 2EE2E KUROPATKIN PATIENT. Russian General Will Not Fight Until He Is Ready. European writers on military top ics generally agree as to a marked difference between the late Gen. Sko- beleff and Gen. Kuropatkin. By all accounts Skobeleff was a Russian Phil Sheridan, with a dash of Custer in him; Kuropatkin is a compound of McClellan and "Pop" Thomas. He has a rooted objection to fighting before he has completed his preparations and everything just to his mind. He thinks it is much better to be safe thfrn to be sorry. He's quite capable of falling back before the Japanese advance again and again. But when he once gets ready to fight things will immediately become very interesting. Reward for Witty Reply. The near approach of the Vincent club's annual show, for which the members are working all the harder this year so that the glory and pro ceeds will be all the greater, recalls a pleasant anecdote of one of Boston's gifted and beautiful young ladies, Miss Gordon Walker, says the Boston Journal. Not long ago at the Somer set one of those charity fairs took place, and at this gathering of wit, fashion and elegance Miss Walker was one of the ladies who were reaping contributions in a fascinating way which made a refusal impossible; an unconditional surrender being the only alternative from the battery of bright eyes. A leading financier in passing Miss Walker placed a $20 bill on her book, saying: "This is an appreciation of youth and beauty." Quick as a flash the witty Boston girl again held out the book and said: "And now in appreciation of the poor in the hospital, sir." Her cleverness was rewarded with another equally large contribution. &he Sign tfGhe Crown on Sl.OES is a of Great Merit. Bookwf Styles free. Chicago Lowering Cable Rates.
