a duty and a privilege to write 3-011

" I suffered for over five years with
ovarian troubles, causing an un

and at times a faintness would coma
over me which no amount of medicine,
diet, or exercise seemed to correct.
Your Vegetable Compound found the
weak spot, however, within a few
weeks —and saved me from an
operation all my troubles had dis
appeared, and I found myself once
more healthy and well. Words fail to
describe the real, true grateful feeling
that is in my heart, and I want to tell

On .Tune 8, 1770, a resolution was offered in the. Continental congress
nt Philadelphia declaring the states free and independent, and a committee
of five was named to draw tip the declaration. Thomas Jefferson wrote the
greater part of the historic document, though Adams ditl most of the
speaking in its favor. The declaration was completed on June 28, the day
of the I'ritish defeat at Fort Moultre, and was signed on July 4, 1776.
AN UNTIDY PRINCESS.
Caroline, Aftemaril Iho (Inein of
Gforftf IV. of Eniglaml, Wan Slov
eul>- in the Extreme,
To Vie delicately clean in clothes
anil person is as much a matter of
course to-day as is the habit of wear- j
ing garments or shaking hands. That
it was tfot always so. says London |
Modern Society, we were reminded a
day or two since when perusing a
letter of the first earl of Malmes
bury, written when that astute dip
lomatist was sent to escort the Prin
cess Caroline of Brunswick to Kng
land to be the bride of the prince
of Wales, afterward George IV. The
way was long in those days, and
hostile armies lay between Bruns
wick and England. The princess,
with her mother, the duchess (sister
to King George III.), and escorted by
Lord Malinesbury and a large retinue,
set out on December 30. It was
April before she was safely landed
en British soil! Poor Lord Malmcs
bttry did his best with his eccentric
charge, and used the time in trying
to fit the. ill-educated, unregulated
girl, who even then took rank as the
princess of Wales, for the perilous
position into which .-he was to he
thrust.
He was distressed to find that
Princess Caroline boasted that she
could jump out of bed and appear en
grande toilette in the course of 13
minutes. Remembering what toilet
meant in the days of hoops and pow
der. this seemed to him only about
time enough to get a dairymaid ready
for tilling the milking pail. He writes
to his confidential friend, the then
duke of Portland, in pathetic dis
may:
''l have had two conversations wi'li
Princess Caroline on cleanliness and
on delicacy of speaking. On these
points I endeavored, as far as was
possible for a man, to inculcate the
necessity of great and nice attention
to every part of dress—as well as to
what was hid as to what was to be
seen. I know she wears coarse petti
coats and coarse linen and thick
stockings—and these never well
washed nor changed often enough!
I gave her credit for,her boast of *1
short toilet. What I could not say
further on this point 1 got said
through women, through Mmo
Busehe and afterwards through Mrs.
llarcourt. It is remarkable how
amazingly her education has been
neglected 011 this point, and how
much her mother, although an Kng
lish woman, was inattentive to it."
The earl was a lit lie bit mistaken
in that last remark. The duchess of
Itrunswick, although the sister of
King George 111., was as utterly Ger
man in training and in ideas as she
could possibly be. She inherited all
the regrettable qualities of the first
two Hanover kings, and she early
married one of the most despicable
of the petty potentates that swarmed
in Germany under the somber shadow
of Frederick the Great.
It appears as if no woman ever
born could have been fitted to be the
wife of the profligate prince—lt
would have needed the nature of an
angel and the patience of a thousand
.lobs to have put up with hiiu us a
husband. Itnt in all Kurope there
could not liuve been a creature less
suited to reform Carlton house than
I'rineess Caroline. It is 011 record

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY. JANUARY 8 1903
The earl sums up the character of
the unfortunate Caroline in these
words:
"She lias quick parts, without a dis
tinguishing understanding; ready
conception, but no judgment; caught
by the first, impression, led by the
first impulse. Talkative, prone to
confide in missis]) friendships that
last 24 hours. Some natural moral
ity. but no strong notions of its
value nor of its necessity. Without
a grain of dignity or an idea of de
corum."
Was it mueh wonder that poor
Caroline wrecked herself, and that
she and her precious husband betwixt
them nearly wrecked the English
monarchy?
SKIING IN AMERICA.
Ami'riomi* Arc llncKunn! In Mjmynf
Hi*" ttrrst Winter Sport* mid
Ml as n l.ot of Fun.
It is a mistake to suppose that ski
ing can be enjoyed only by our Can
adian friends, says Country Life in
America. Everyone who lives in a
hill country where there is any snow
at all should try this exciting pas
time. A pair of skis and a pole cost
about a dollar and a half. The run
ners are usually six or seven feet
long, about four inches wide, and the
pole may be ten or twelve feet in
length. On account of the small ex
pense and informal nature of the
sport, skiing is just the thing for those
parts of the United States where the
winter is essentially a changeable sea
son. Some sports may demand a
steady winter; skiing does not. In
certain parts of the United States ski
ing has already "caught on." For ex
ample, a good many of the Cornell
students carry their skis to the class
room and slide home on them. In the
mining camps of the upper Michigan
the Swedes and Norwegians come fly
ing down their race-courses, shoot off
a sort of spring-board, rise to a thrill
ing height and achieve an astonishing
leap before they tumble into the wait
ing snowbank. Hut the ski is a good
thing for everyday use and fun. One
can pole along on the level fairly well
in almost any kind or depth of snow,
and on a crust skis are quicker than
snow-shoes. Skis cost less than a
good pair of skates or a good bob
sled, and they furnish a novel meth
od of sliding down bill. It is easy to
learn. Two or three tumbles do the
business. If you get one foot well
ahead of the other you are certainly
a "goner." The man who leans back
is likely to have a laughable "mix
up." It. is best to stand erect, or
crouch forward so as to brace one
self. The pole is trailed'behind and
used to steer by.
The people of the United States are
provincial in the matter of winter
sports. We have been missing "a lot
of fun," and it is high time that we
{ look to skiing.

Bulletin 102 of the Kansas station
says: This is a native of Mexico, and
thought by many botanists to be the
original of our Indian corn. It is an
annual plant resembling corn or sor
ghum in general appearance, but, in
stead of producing an ear, there are in
the leaf-axils several slender jointed
spikes which are separate from each
l TEOSINTE IN BLOOM,
other instead of being united into an
ear. However, in the United States,
the plant seldom flowers, and never
produces seed except in south Florida
1 or near the gulf coast. It is cultivated
j in the southern states, w here it is con
! sidered a valuable forage plant, and
under favorable conditions produces
an immense amount of forage. Forex
( ample, it is reported to have produced
l in Louisiana over 50 tons of green
forage per acre. It requires a long
season and considerable moisture,
for which reason it is not well suited
to Kansas conditions. It gives a fair
amount of fodder in Kansas, but there
is not hing to recommend it above corn,
sorghum or Kafir corn for the same
purpose.
PLOWING UNDER CROPS.
The Vnloe of Green Manurinic K«t
Fully Appreciated by Mnny Oth
erwise Hrij;lu Furnieri.
There are plenty of farmers who
1 do not believe in or practice green
; manuring. They think it a better
i and more profitable plan to harvest
<1 crop, whatever it is, and feed it to
I animals. They also hold that the
| process of soil amelioration by this
' means is too slow, and takes alto
' gether too long. These anil other ob
jections to green manuring are plaus
ible and rather hard to refute. Still
the fact remains that favorable re
sults are often obtained by plowing
under green crops. Sometimes a
farmer lias land that is deteriorat
ing under annual cropping, and he
cannot well put it in a condition to
return a profitable cultivated and
harvested crop, lie may have used
all available home-made manure, and
it may not be convenient to purchase
■ concentrated fertilizers.
In such a case, rather than let tlio
j land go fallow, he may find it to his
' interest to cover it with some crop
jon purpose to plow it under. One
: advantage of this course is its ex
; treme cheapness. It costs the farm
-1 er practically nothing but the seed,
| the labor of plowing the ground at
the time of sowing, and again when
the crop has made a suitable growth.
| Something is gained by the improve
ment of the mechanical condition of
j the soil, by preventing the growth
: of undesirable weeds which would
j otherwise have taken possession of
! the land, and by increasing soil fer
| tility to some extent. The addition
j of humus by the decay of the crop
is in some soils of great importance.
| The argument that no fertility is
added to the soil by simply return
-1 ing the crop that grew upon it does
| not apply to a leguminous crop, that
| is able to draw a large part of its
I support from the air. If the plan
j of green manuring is not followed
| under any other circumstances, it
i is certainly advisable to sow some
| hardy crop on the removal of a har
vested crop, to remain through the
I winter as a cover and be plowed down
in the spring. S. 15. Iveach, in X. Y.

One author says that in feeding
back extracted honey to complete the
partially filled sections, it has been
found that a good colony will con
sume one and a half pounds of honey
per day. This goes to sustain the
i life of the bees, keeps the necessary
heat, feeds the brood aud makes the
wax. l'robably the same amount is
used during honey flow. After the
honey flow about a half-pound a day.
1 Through ihe winter about 25 pounds
are used. Ilis idea of a good colony
! is one with perhaps 20,000 bees, which
| is above the usual number in the sl/.n
of hives grttcrnlly used. It would
seem that u hull' pound a day for

MR. AM) MRS. J. 0. ATKINSON, INDEPENDENCE, MO.
UNDER date of January 10, 1897,
I)r. llartinan received the fol
lowing letter:
"My wife had been suffering from a
complication of diseases for the past
25 years.
"Her case had baffled the skill of
some of the most noted physicians.
One of her worst troubles was chronic
constipation of several years' stand
ing.
"She also was passing through that
most critical period in the life of a
woman—change of life. In June, 1805,
T wrote to you about her case. You
advised a course of Peruna and Mana
lin, which we at once commenced, and
have to say it completely cured her.
She firmly believes that she would
have been dead only for these wonder
ful remedies.
"About the same time I wrote you
about my own case of catarrh, which
had been of 25 years' standing. At
times I was almost past going.l com
menced to use Peruna according to
vour instructions, and continued its use
for about a year, and it has completely
cured me.
««Vour remedies do all that you claim
for them, and even more. Catarrh

In a letter dated January 1, 1000,
Mr. Atkinson says, after five years*
experience with Peruna:
" I will ever continue to speak a good
word for Peruna. In my rounds asm
traveling man I am a walking adver
tisement for Peruna and have Induced
many people during the past year to
use Peruna with the most satisfactory
1 esults. lam still cured of catarrh."
John O. Atkinson,
Box 272, Independence, /Wo.
When old age comes on, catarrhal
diseases come also. Systemic catarrh
is almost universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has be
come so indispensable to old people.
Peruna is their safe-guard. Peruna la
the only remedy yet devised that
meets these cases exactly.
Such cases cannot be treated locally;
nothing but. an effective systemic rem
edy could cure them. This is exactly
what Peruna is.
If you (To not receive prompt and
satisfactory results from the use of
Peruna, write at once to Dr. llartninn,
giving a full statement of your case
and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.
