and after theso Indians had been en-

At the same lime 1,000 were strick-

It is exi>ected the decision will cause
all those bringing suits to be regis-

Agricultural practice in southern
India from start to flulsh requires re-
ligious rites, says the Madras Mail.
In the Tamil districts the agri
cultural year commences about April, i
On April 23 the cultivators of a vil-
lage consult a "valluvan," who llxes
for them the kind of wood that they
should cut and take away. He is sup-
!>osed to settle the question as the
result of astrological observations
made on the commencement of the
Tamil New Year's day, which falls
about April 13. Each cultivator then
lakes a little camphor, some incense,
a few plantains and a cocoatiut, and

offering the plantains and the. cocoa-
is it. Then he lops off the first branch,
taking good care that it falls on the
right side. In each year the side is
different. Prosperity to himself and
his cattle is firmly believed to depend
very much upon this. He then cuts
away the required quantity of wood
and lakes it home.
Another day is then selected, soon
after the early rains of the same
month, by the "vulluvan," and then
the greatest event of the agricultural
year occurs. Each ryot takes the
wood he has selected for tho plow, j
which is newly fitted up and taken to .
tho field, where the bullocks are tied !
to it, and behind it stand other plows
with teams of oxen tied to them, j
while large crowds assemble around I
the teams.
The principal plowman then daubs

France Fears the Tromblon.
Every traveler knows that there are
certain restrictions upon the introduc-
tion of arms into foreign countries.
Among the weapons which It is for-
bidden to take into France is the
"tromblon," which is expressly men-
tioned in the Bengal code as a weapon
the carrying and sale of which is not
allowed. And yet the "tromblon" is
not a firearm which is commonly used
nowadays, for it is nothing else than
the blunderbuss, a weapon which old
caricatures show to have been car-
ried by the guards of coaches as a
protection against highwaymen and
to have been hung over his fireplace
by John Bull at the time of the scare
of a Napoleonic invasion 100 years
ago. The blunderbuss had a flint
lock, a short barrel, and a muzzle
like a trumpet, the bell mouth be-
ing designed to scatter the slugs
with which the primitive piece was
charged. Anyone who buys one at an
j old curiosity shop had better take
care how he introduces it into France,
I for the penalty for doing so is a line
I of 200 francs.

Mrs. A. Gregorv, of 2355 lawrence
St., Denver, Col, writes to Mrs.
Pinkhain:
'• I was practically an invalid for six
years, on account of female troubles.
I underwent an operation by the
doctor's advice, but in a few months 1
was worse than before. A friend ad-
vised Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound and it restored me to perfect
health, such as I have not enjoyed in
many years. Anv woman suffering as
I did with backache, bearing-dowp

to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

Hoards in Bank of France.
Week by week the influx of gold
continues. This week's report show:,
the gold holdings of the Bank of
Prance to be $04,000,000 above what
ihey were a year ago, and $49,000,000
above the highest figure ever reached
by them prior to 1908. Of the gold ini
ported by Paris from the 17th to the
21th of September, 14,874,000 francs
went into the Hank of France. Yet In
the face of this movement all recent
bank balances show the continued full-
ing ofT in commercial discounts and in
bank advances or loans on securities
So far the gold arrivals have certainly
not lessened the apparent demand for
gold. The Hank of France and the
other banks, in a measure, are seem-
ingly hoarding gold against future
needs. Some say that this Is the les-
son they have learned from tho mone-
tary crisis.

An aching back is instantly relieved by an
application of Sloan's Liniment.
This liniment takes the placeof massage and
is better than sticky plasters. It penetrates—
without rubbing—through the skin and muscu-
lar tissue right to the bone, quickens the blood,
relieves congestion, and gives permanent as
well as temporary relief.
Sloan's
