How I Cured Sweeny and Fistula.
"I want to tell you how I saved one
of our horses that had a fistula. We
bad the horse doctor out and be said
It was so bad that be did not think
he could cure it, and did not come
again. Then we tried Sloan's Lini
ment and It cured It up nicely.
"One day last spring I was
plowing for a neighbor who had a
horse with sweeny, and I told him
about Sloan's Liniment and he had
me get a bottle for him, and it cured
his horse all . right, and he goes off
now like a colt.
"We had a horse that had sweeny
awfully bad, and we thought It was
never going to be any good, but we
used Sloan's Liniment and It cured It
up nicely. I told another neighbor
about it and he said it was the best
Liniment he ever used.
"We ara using Sloan's Sure Colic
Cure and we think It Is all right."

Almost in Despair Owes Quick
Care to Cuticura.
"Several months ago, my little boy began
to break out with itching tores. I doctored
him, but as soon as I got them healed up
In one place they Would break out in an
other. I was almost in despair. I could
not get anything that would help him.
Then I began to use Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment, and after using them
three times the sores commenced to heal.
He is now well, and not a scar is left on
his body. They have never returned nor
left him with bad blood, as one would
think. Cuticura Remedies are the best I
have ever tried, and I shall highly recom
mend them to any one who is suffering

Cheaper Coffins.
Some undertakers, whose cuftom

made of paper. The coffins are made
in all styles of pressed paper pulpr

stained they resemble polished wood,
and in point of durability it is said
they are much better than wooden
ones.

Supreme Court Changes.
Tho president of tho United States
may be an uncrowned king, but there
Is a power even greater than his, and
that Is tho power of the Supreme
Court of the United States. Within
the term of tho next presidency
there will In all probability bo four
vacancies In the .supreme court
which will bo filled by appointment
by tho president, and theso appoint
ments will In a largo measure deter
mine the future bins of tho highest
Judicial body In the country. There
aro nine members of tho supreme
court and their average age Is C4,
four of them being 70 years nnd over.
The youngest member, Judge Moody,
who was appointed In 1900,
is 65. Three of these members
have been appointed by Roosevelt
during the last six years, but owing
to the great age of several of the
members of the court It seems likely
that within the next presidential term
the rather unusual number of four
vacancies will occur. Therefore, the
next presidential election will de
termine not only who shall fill the
highest executive office in the land,
but will also determine the political
and economic bent of the supreme
court. Wall Streo Journal. .

The number of persons whose ail

"For twelve years I suffered from
dyspepsia, finding no food that did
not distress me," writes a Wisconsin
lady. "I was reduced from 145 to
90 lbs., gradually growing weaker
until I could leave my bed only
short while at a time, and became un
able to speak aloud.
"Three years ago I was attracted
by an article on Grape-Nuts and de
cided to try It.
"My stomach was so weak I could
not take cream, but I used Grape-
Nuts with milk and lime water. It
helped me from the first, building up
my system in a manner most aston
ishing to the friends who had thought
my recovery Impossible.
"Soon I was able to take Grape
Nuts and cream for breakfast, and
lunch at night, with an egg and
Grape-Nuts for dinner.
"I am now able to eat fruit, meat
and nearly all vegetables for dinner,
but fondly continue Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and supper.
"At the time ot beginning Grape
Nuts I could scarcely speak a sentence
without changing words around or
'talking crooked' in some way, but my
brain and nerves have become so
strengthened that I no longer have
that trouble." "There's a Reason."

According to a Government botan
ist at Washington, D. C, there Is rea
son to believe that buds share in the
growing old of the parent plant. He
illustrates his meaning in this way:
Suppose the average life ot an Indi

years, then a bud removed when the
parent plant is fifty years old will
also be virtually fifty years ot age,
and It transplanted by grafting will
be able to live on the graft only fifty
years more.

- History of Enameling.
It Is certain that glazes having the
composition ot good enamels were
manufactured at a very early date.
'Excellent glazes were still preserved
and some of the bricks which have
been found among the ruins of Baby
lon have been ascribed to the seventh
or eighth century, B. C. The glaze
on the Babylonian bricks was found
upon examination to have a base ot
soda-glass, or silicate of sodium,
Glazes ot a similar character were
also manufactured by the Egyptians
as early as the sixth dynasty. There
can be little doubt that the Greeks
and Etruscans were also acquainted
with the art of enameling.

St. Sebastian was born about 240

Great Contrast.
A greater contrast could hardly be
furnlehcd by modern nations than that
between the fleet under Commodore
Perry, the presence of which In Japa
nese waters exercised so profound an
Influence on Japan's destiny at the
turning point in Its careerand that
which is to call at Yokohama on Its
long homeward voyago from the Pa
cific coast. The naval demonstration
of 1854 marked the beginning of tho
relations of Japan and the United
States, relations which in commerce
and diplomacy have been of unbroken
friendliness and mutual advantage.
There Is no present reason to doubt
that the coming visit of the fleet,
with its Impressive revelation of the
revolution which has taken place in
naval affairs in the half century and
more that has elapsed since Perry's
sldewheefers churned the waters of
the Bay of Yeddo, will cement that
friendship and lead to a clearer ap
preciation on both sides of the im
portance of preserving that happy
relation unbroken and untarnished
by distrust and suspicion. Philadel
