"This Pawpaw locality" said John
Franklin "is one of the most favor-
ably fcituated in this country. Hardly
a man vho wants to wt.k but can
make 82 a day ruining coal all through
that portion of the year when he baa
finished his crop Tnis Is much more

Is wet or dry." Viniti need a rail-

"Our little daughter had an almost fa-
tal attack of whooping cough and bron-
chitis" writes Mrs. W. 11. Haviland of
Armonk N. Y. "but when all other
remedies failed we saved her life with
Dr. King's New Discovery. Our niece
who had consumption iu an advanced
stage also used this wonderful medicine
and today she is perfectly well." Des-
perate throat and lung diseases yield to
Dr. King's New Discovery as to no other
medicine on earth. Infallible for coughs
and colds. 50c and f 1 00 bottles guar-
anteed by People's drug store. Trial

THE ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Their Occasional Exceptional Brll
liandy Explained.
"Why at times do the electric
liyhw hlHZ-3 up brilliantly and then to
a detfrce uecruase in powei? 'was asked
Mr. Lahmau the other day. His ans-
wer was that the telephone peo-
ple were overhauling their lines and
they frequently lay auulnst the liwht
wires causing a waste of current.
When a yust of wii.d cmuos ami blows
the wires back the iuhts et t he full

In ai.iswer to the question whether

tricity Mr. L ibuiaii said il could ami

is to tireat too make its employment

fected for t-toppinK the waste of cur-
terit electricity iil perioral many

ent. or a time coal or gas must

A Dozen Times a Night.
Mr. Owen Dunn of Benton Ferrr W.
Va writes: "I have had kidney and
bladder trouble for years and it became
so bad that I was obliged to get up at
least a dozen times a night. I never re-
ceived any permanent benefit from any
medicine until I tried Foley's kidney
cure. After using two bottles 1 am

ANITTAL LIFE IN SVAMPS.
Many laterei. f iitii I'iiuseH Are Fuuoj
Amid (lie Cru . of (be
Wet Lttikdw.
A pond particularly if a portion of
the margin is swampy has great possi-
bilities lor the nature student. There
seems to he no limit to the variety of
living creatures -which he may hud
there iu the course of a year. In thia
respect a pond is superior even to a
brook writes Kruest Harold Bayr.es.
I live near such a pond and I visit it
often. It has its counterpart in any one
of ten thousand little ponds throughout
the country yet the United States gov-
ernment does not employ a number of
clerks sufficient to record the business
which is transacted within sight of its
banks. No matter how hot or cold the
weather; no matter how dull things are
in the country round about here there
is always something interesting to he
seen or heard. Here I come in the early
spring to see the first and seeming'y
the brightest of the marsh marigolds
reflected in the cold clear water and to
lift from the shallow masses of trans-
parent frog spaw n in which may be seen
scores of tiny black specks whl-h some
day will be frogs. Here too I come at
night to hear the lonely bittern calling
his mate in a voice which sounds like
water beating against the mouth of a
cavern. And later in the year I find
their nest in the marsh near by a hand-
ful of coarse grasses with four or five
buff eggs. And so all through the sum-
mer when the turtles sit in rows on the
half-sunken logs and when the frogs
squat upon the lily pads until the fall
when the mus!;r&ts build their winter
houses on the mud Hats and when the
black ducks and the wild geese drop In
to spend a few days on their way to the
south. Nor is business suspended in
the winter for then under the shelving
ice along the bank I mark the tracks
of the mink and when I see between
them the tiny footprints of mice I know
pretty well what he was looking for.
Among the other inhabitants of this
pond are some huge snapping turtles
whose age is the subject of frequept dis-
cussions at the nearest country grocery.
Some bear upon their shells certain
dates and other marks which it is
claimed were carved more than 50
years ago. It is not often they are
seen but now and then one of these old
villians will raise his great snake-like
hi.d above the surface of the pond and
blink a pair of the coldest crudest eyes
which ever disfigured the head of a rep-
tile. Nothing in the pond is sacred to
these hardened old sinners. No doubt
they live largely on fish but young
muskrats and ducklings are often jerked
below the surface of the rond to rise no
more and wild mice which sometimes
swim across are foolhardy to say the
least. Last June I was v.alidng along
the bank of a little stream which fio-va
through a meadow and into a pond w hen
my attention was attracted by the pecu-
liar movement of a patch of waving
grass. It was easy to see that the wind
had little to do with it. so I ran over to
investigate. In the middle of a good-
sized depression caused by the flatten-
ing down of the grass stood a fciant
snapping turtle weighing 50 pounds if
an ounce I should say and with great
horny jaw s agape ready for business. I
guessed that it w as probably a female on
ber way to deposit her eggs in the sand
somewhere so I decided not to inter-
rupt her. Instead I retired to a dis-
tance and climbed a tree whence I had
& good view of the meadow and the sur-
rounding country. The old lady snap-
per continued on her way lurching
through the grass like a tramp steamer
in a heavy sea. and stopping now and
then to raise her head and look around.
In the course of time she came out of the
meadow and into an old road with a
sandbank running along one side of Iu
This bank seemed to be her deslnation
for on the side of it she halted and be-
gan scraping a hole with her big be-
clawed front feet. She seemed to be in
no particular hurry and as I was I
slipped down the tree and left her to
take her own time. By and by I re-
turned and there she was still scratch-
ing in the bank. But this time she was
raking the sand into the hole and the
task was nearly done. 1 waited until
she had completed the work and as
soon as she waddled away. I began to
do some digging myself. Under some
12 inches of sand I came upon the eggs.

One result of the opening of the Si-
berian railway has been the discovery
of many previously unknown or un-
utilized resources of the broad land
that it traverses. Investigation of the
Yenisei and Obi rivers for instance has
revealed the fact that they are naviga-
ble to ocean steamers for a distance of
nearly 1000 miles. Oil has been discov-
ered in central Siberia as well as in the
province of Irkutsk and encourage-
ment by a special grant is extended to
prospectors for gold. Youth's Compan-

In the examination of the intracel-
lular character of bacteria it Is desir-
able mechanically to break up the mi-
nute bodies of the micro-organisms
without modifying the cell juices by
heat or chemical agents. This has been
Effected by freezing the bacteria solid
with liquid air and then grinding up the
cold brittle mass. In thi3 manner It
was proved that the typhoid bacillus '
contains within Itself a toxin indepen-
dent of the Ecl'j'ole poison that It se-
cretes when alive. Science. '
