WHEN THERE
IS ILLNESS
in your family you of course call
n reliable physician. Don't etop
at that; have his ytrecriptions
put up at a reliable pharmacy,
even it it is n little farther from
your home than some other store.
You can find no more reliable
store than ours. It would be im-
fiossible for more care to be taken
n the selection of drags, etc., or
in the compounding. Trescrip
tions bronclit here, either night
or dny, will be promptly and
accurately compounded by a
competent registered pharmacist
and the prices will be most rea
sonable. O. T. CHAMBERS,

According to the Wyaluslng Ilock
et a Lime Hill farmer Is successful
In preventing grubs in his cattle by
sprinkling salt upon their backs, tile
sagely cautions farmers against let
ting the cattle run looso with horses
or colts " for fear that theso animals
will injure the cows In their efforts
to secure tho salt." If It woro de
sirable to let cattle and horses run
together under such circumstances,
the danger suggested could easily
be obviated by keeping plenty of salt
in a box or trough where the horses
could get It as they desire. Salt
should always be kept within reach
of domestic animals; It is necessary
to their health. It is far better to
have it constantly accesslblo than to
dose it out In undue quantity at long
intervals.

his fifty-six years at sea have not
been In vain. Captain Huss went to
sea when three years old. His fath

time. His actual service began In
1S71, and In 1S90 he entered the
service of the 'Hamburg-American

Captain Russ has figured that If he
could have put those two hundred

gone around the world about twenty

ABOUT ADVERTISING.
Tho best and most successful firms
In business recognize that tho sub
ject of advertising Is an essential
feature and must bo considered with
tho other expense Incident to the
marketing of their goods. We can
safely say that no business enter
prise ever was successful for any
length of time without advertising
In some manner.
Even In small towns you can look
about you and pick out tho adver
tising merchants from tho one who
falls to make public the fact that
he has wares for sale, either from
prejudice or shot-sightedness.
Piled away upon shelves, in lofts,
and in warehouses in Honesdale are
millions of dollars' worth of good
goods waiting to be sold and they
would be sold if the proper party
was behind the enterprise to make
them sell. The buying public are
not mind readers; they do not know
that you are anxious to turn your
stock and get dead investment mov
ing. It is not necessary to squander
money without reason to advertise;
there is such a thing as injudicious
advertising as well as injudicious
buying, but think well of the most
effective way In which to place your
goods before tho people and carry
forward an advertising campaign. It
will do llttlo good to burst out with
a flare head, like a skyrocket and
fall back to oblivion; to condemn the
practice because crowds did not rush
to your door. It Is constantly keep
ing at it that wins out. As your
business increases, Increase propor
tionately your advertising allowance
and your business will grow cor
respondingly. This does not mean
that advertising alone will mend a
business made sick by mismanage
ment or neglect to other necessary
details, but two business firms of
equal comparison, starting their ca
reer under the same circumstances.
one doing judicious advertising and
the other doing none, will soon show
to tho observer and customer, which
has tho brisk trade in new goods
ever revolving, wnno tho other will
lapse into a state of self-s.itlsfld
quietude, content to wait upon the
old friends who like to do business
thero because no one ever crowds
tnem, and the proprietor can be
iound sitting Inside the door wait
ing for their coming.
TO BREED WILD HOGS.
An Experiment to ho Tried in the
Hills of Pennsylvania.
Tho Pennsylvania hills aro about
to contribute another factor in tho
food supply of the country. Chest
nut orcharding and apple raising
uavo proven a success, now tho
business of raising hogs on a larger
scale, using the wild lands as a
range, is to begin, says a corres
pondent of tho Phlladelnhia Rncnrd.
at Jamison City. Henry W. Miller,
who for many years has entracml in
the breeding of cattle on tho. wild
land ranges belonging to Col. Bruce
Ricketts will this summer, in con
nection with his cattle business, havo
charge of a drove of 50 hogs. This
is but a starter, for it is expected
that within three years tho number
of hogs kept on the range will num
ber several hundred.
Miller has made a study of the
conditions, tho food to be obtained
and tho likelihood of the pigs being
able to pick up practically their en
tiro living, up to tho time when tho
real fattening for killing would have
to bo attended to.
Tho entire drove of hogs to start
with aro to bo 'Berkshlres. It is cal
culated that while theso are not so
largo an animal as some of tho
other species, yet they aro harder
and moro likely to thrive on tho
mountain "picking."
Tho hogs will bo given tho ontiro
run on the ranges. It Is not expect
ed that they will always travel to
gether; Indeed, the ono great trouble
which Mr. Miller sees in tho busi
ness is tho likelihood of the hogs
wandering.
In this event, when the rounding
up tlmo comes, tho nnlmals will havo
to be hunted and shot liko bear, as
In a single season some hogs when 1
in environs removod frpm clviliza
ton bocomo wild and ferocious.
Tho range on which tho pigs aro
to bo herded Is a notod black bear
country, and as boars havo a natural
appetite for young pork, It is not un
likely that 8omo of tho pigs will bo
como food for ibruln, unless tho par-i
out hogs are sufficiently pugnacious
to urivo otr ttio marauders.
It is calculated that tho natural in
crease from the 50 hogs turnod upon
tho ranges this swing will yiold sev
eral hundred suotes by fall, from
which a cholco will bo m'ado for tho
stocking next summer. Tho hogs'
will havo to bo "rounded im" nml
kept in shelter during tho vigorous
part of tho wintor. All of tho ani
mals will bo Oirandod beforo they aro
turned on tho range, and It will ho
the business of Mr. iMlllor or ono or
his helpers to take a consus of tho
droves at loast onco a month.
Tho grazing of cattlo has beon
such a success with Mr. Miller that
ho has no doubt as to profit from tho
grazing of hogs. It may not bo
necessary to oven "grain" the hogs,
for tho amount of feed obtainable,
while not of tho kind that will pro
duce fat, will promoto tho growth of
the animals and placo them in con
dition for an early market "on tho
hoof" to thoso who will fatten them.
