Kulinjr of

In nn opinion and decree hand
ed down Monday by President
Judge J. M. Wood;, in the Bed
lord county court, he held that
i no act of Assembly requiring
the county through which vacat
ed turnpikes run to keep the

tional, upon the ground that it
was class legislation. Suit had

It's a pleasure lo tell our read
ers about a Cough Cure like Dr.
Shoop's. For years Dr. Bboop
has fought agaiust the use of
opium, chloroform, or other un
safe iugredients commonly found
in Cough remedies. Dr. Shoop,
it seems, has welcomed the Pure
Food and Drug Law recently eu
acted, for he has worked along
similar Hues many years. For
nearly 20 years Dr. Shoop's
Couirli Cure containers have had
M-a warniug printed on them against
opium and other narcotic poisons.
He has thus made it possible lor
mothers to protect their children
b simply insisting on having Dr.
Shoop's Cough Cure. Sold at
Dickson's drug store.

NEW STYLE OF PKOIM1LCV,
A Raw Onion Supersedes the
(ioose Bone Prophet.
John HofftnftU, of l'uiixsiitiiw
ney, litis discovered a new method
for forecasting the weather condi
tions which be olitims, will rela
gate the goose-hou", ground hog,
corn husk and other time honored
prognosticiitors to the distant rear.
The l'unxsutiiwney Spirit says
t'mt on Friday Mr. llotliimn took
it common onion and pealed ofT 12
layers which he placed in a saucer,
lie then covered the layers with a
heavy sprinkling of salt and set
tlietn in a dark place where they
were allowed to remain four days.
Tuesday he made au examination
of the onions when ho discovered
t'iat three layers, representing
J 00 nary i February und March,
had been completely dissolved,
while the other layers remained
inta :t. This Mr. Hofliiiui inter
prets to mean that the weather du
ring January, February and March
will be warm and open like purt of
hist week.
Mr. Hoffman advises his friends
that he has tried the experiment
for several yearn, and that they
i-iii raly on the integrity of 'the
prediction implicitly.

Magnificent I'orty-Six Story Struc
ture for New York City.
Plans for the tallest building in
the world have been filed with
building Superintendent Murphy,
and when they are carried out 1
there will be at Madison Square
and twenty-fourth street a tower
which will reach far above all
New York t!5 feet in the air.
The tower is to be the annex to
the Metropolitan Life Building,
and here aro some of the dimen
sions of the completed .structure:
Height above sidewalk, 698 bet
Total height from foundation,
6901 foiJt-
Number of stories above side
walk, 46.
Number of stories below side
walk, 9.
Grand totul floor area of new
Metropolitan building, 1,085,668
quart feet (about 25 acres )
The new tower is to occupy the
site of Dr. Parkhurst's old church
on Madison Square. It will be
live stories higher than the new
Singer building tower which is to
he built soon. From the elabor
ate plans submitted by the archi
tects, Napoleon Le Crun Sk Son,
it is evident that the new structure
is to be in many ways the most re
markable of modern buildings.
Above the eleventh story the
tower is to be but seventy-four
feet square, and yet it is claimed
the problem of sky-scraper con
struction has been so thoroughly
mastered that the lofty column
will have all the power of resist
ance which belongs to the main
building.
Wind braces will protect it, and
the interior construction of the
steel frame is of such nature that
tho strongest winds that blow
across Manhattan cannot endang
er it.
The tower will be of i-teel skel
eton frame, filled out with orna
mental brick and marble to match
the main structure. Abovo the
main portion will be peuked dome
94 feet high, with an octagonal cu
palo rising 70 feet additional Six
passenger elevators will run from
the basement through the 4S stories
to the top. Three storage tank.-,
each 7500 gallons capacity will he
.installed on the 26th, oStliuud 4S!,li
floors of the tower. The estimat
ed cost of thoaddition is s;;, 000,000.
