The girls who put up my Medical
Discovery all go to our Warren Street
Methodist Church and two of them sing
with great pleasure to themselves and
others. One of them came to me one
day, saying, 44 Dr. Kennedy, I must
tell you what good the Discovery is
doing in our church."
44 Glad to hear that," said I.
44 Well," she went on, 44 When I was
so hoarse last Spring, you said it
seemed like INWARD HUMOR and ad
vised me to begin at once with the
Discovery. 1 did so and in one month
the hoarseness was all gone and my
voice had improved so much several of
our church mentioned it. Of course
I told them you had advised the Dis
covery and I was taking it. In fun,
one of the girls said, 1 want to try it
too, and the fact is that the whole
church, I might say, found out that
KENNEDY'S MEDICAL DISCOVERY
would cure their throats and pimples
and many other troubles."
44 All due to Inward Humor," said
I, and that's what I explain in my

who asks for it, and my Medical Dis
covery is sold in your town.

HARDEST PIECE OF WORK IN THE
COW BUSINESS.
Duties of the Ropers, Uulldopcgers
and Punchers—A Queer Thiug
About Hrands.
T HAT is the hardest piece
\/\ / of work that a man in
\ the cow business ever
has to do?"
"Well," romarked Joseph Keith, of
Bolcherville, Texas, who certainly has
been at the business long enough to
know what he is talking about, "there
are a good many things he has to do
that haven't much fun in them. Stand
ing guard in the rain or riding around
'em on a dark night would neither
one bo considered a picnic by most
people, but when it comes right down
to sweating and tugging and good old
hard words, I believe branding beats
any job I ever tackled."
Perhaps the reader may bo, as I
I was, a little inclined to wonder how
the mere making of marks 011 a cow's
hide can involve any really hard man
ual labor; but if ho once learns the
details of the process all wonder on
this point will cease. He will learn,
furthermore, that it requires not only
muscular strength, but experience and
courage and brains. The average
hard-working Missouri farmer would
find it about as hard to make a suc
cess of branding cattle in Texas as at
building ships in Maine.
Of course, ill order to brand cattle
one must huvo liavo the proper tools.
Branding irons are of two kinds
stamping irons and dotting irons.
I'lie former consists of a ivrouglii-irou
stamp containing all the characters in
the brand. For instance, if the brand
were X I T, there would be an iron
stamp composed 'of these three letters,
with an iron handle running back
from some convenient point, as the
middle of the I. These stamps were
formerly much in use, but have now
become almost completely abandoned,
except among the very largest outfits.
Their place has been taken by the dot
ting irons, which consist merely of a
straight iron rod and a half circle
with a long handle attached. With
these two implements any letter in
the alphabet can be made, and an as
tonishingly large variety of other
characters as well. For instance, the
reader can easily understand how the
X I T outfit makes its brand by fivo
applications of tho straight rod. "B"
requires one application of tho
straight rod and two of the half cir
cle. This may not make a very beau
tiful B, but it makes one which any
child that knows its letters would be
apt to recognize. If more elaborate
designs are wanted, the simple dot
ting irons are found sufficient to pro
duce them. Tho straight rod is gen
erally about a yard long, and has
a ring in i the end. The
handle to the half circle is about the
same length. They are generally
heated in a brisk tire on the open
prairie, though on the large ranches
lhero is sometimes a furnace built es
pecially for the purpose.
For branding any cIaRS of cattle
properly at least four men are re
quired. Of these four, ono is tho
roper, two are bulldoggers, and the
fourth is the puncher. As I am writ
ing in the English lunguagc, I take it
for granted that my English-speaking
readers all have a perfectly accurate
idea of what these words mean. Of
course, we all know that n roper is ono
who ropes. If necessary, one man can
do all the roping required, but two
men do better. The roper throws his
lariat around the neck of some animal
to bo branded, and then, by tho main
strength of his horse, hauls it up with
in a reasonable distance of tho tire.
The horse he rides is called the cut
ting horse. He is called the cutting
horse, not because ho can cut, but be
cause he is used in cutting out Jeuttle
from the herd. Some idea of the hard
ness of the work may bo derived from
tho fact that during the branding sea
son each roper is allowed from ten to
twelve horses for his own individual
use.
When the roper has driven and
dragged the steer to he branded to the
usual place, ho turns him over to the
liulldoggers. These mon eatoh hold
of the animal and hold him while the
punoher applies tho hot iron. Does
the reader imagine that ho and some
other man like him could tackle a big
full-grown Texas steer , and hold him
down? Possibly they could if they
knew how, but knowing how is
tho trouble. Even one good
able-bodied man can do so if he
can manage to get the right kind of
grip. Usually, when there is only
ono bnlldogger, he plants his knees
squarely in the flanks of his prostrate
victim, passes tho animal's tail back
between its legs, and grips it firmly
with both hands. It might be well
for the roador to remember this the
next time he wants to hold a vicious
cow down. The attitude may not be a
very graceful one, but it gives the
man a death-like grip on the brute.
The horns may toss viciously and the
forefeet pound away at a vindictive
rate, but as loug as the grip on tho
tail holds the hinder quarters stay
close to the ground. It is hard on the
cow, but it is also hard on the muscular
strength of tho man who does the hold
ing. For this reusou tho lmlldoggers
generally work in pairs. One of them
takes the grip just described, while
the other ono grasps a fore hoof of the
animal in each hand, as if in the fervor
of a double handshake. When it is a
colt that is being branded tho atti
tudes are varied. One man holds the
head down, or [sits ou it, while the
other sits down flat on the ground and
grasps the upper one of its hind logs
firmly in both hands. Ono might
think thut for two mon to hold a oaft
down is not vory hard work, but when
it comes to doing so for hour after
hour tho work becomes exhuustino.
Even at best tlie bulldogger's position
lacks a great deal of being a sinecure.
The time of year when most cattle
aro branded is in the spring or fall-
Most of the calves are of suitable age
in the fall, but for grown cattlo the
spring is preferred, because they shed
most of their superiiuous hair then.
Calves are branded any time after they
aro two weeks old, but from three to
six months is the usual age. Stock
mon say that a full yearling is the
hardest animal they have to brand. If
any man thinks one at that ago isn't
tough and muscular just let liim try
to hold one down. There is one pecu
liar feature about branding calves, and
opinions in regard to its cause vary
widely. Sometimes when a young
calf is branded the brand will grow ay
the calf grows and when the animal is
full grown will be fully twice as large as
it was originally. Then, again, some
times it will remain just as it is, not
growing a particle. This seems to me
really a remarkable phenomenon, but
it is undoubtedly a fact. Some stock
men account for it by saying that it
depends upon whether the calf is
branded in the durk or the light of the
moon, while others aro inclined to
think it depends more upon the depth
to which the branding iron burns the
hide. It is a fact that branding is
sometimes done much more deeply
than at o there. If tho iron is hotter
than it ought to be—red hot, for inst
ance--the hair may catch fire and a
needlessly sore place be made on the
animal. If it is just hot enough, an
application for two seconds is long
enough. If the iron is getting cold,
it may be kept on the animal lor half
a minute. Sometimes the bulldoggers
have to hold tho animal down for ten
or fifteen minutes, while tho puncher
goes and heats his irons a second
time.
Perhaps the reader understands by
this time that branding a big herd in
volves a large element of real, hard
work. Ho should also understand
that in selecting a new brand, a cattle
man has to exercise a good deal of dis
criminating judgment. To originate
a really good brand is about as bard
us to deviso a catching title for n
modern book or story. In fact a new
brand is selected very much as is the
title of a modern novel. It is not nec
essary that either one should mean
anything in particular, provided only
it is something nobody uses. To got
an altogethrr new brand in Texas is
now a very difficult feat. Every letter
in the alphabet has been used long
ago, many combinations of letters,
and all reasonable combinations of
figuress. A man must be very hard
up when he would devise one like this :
(7777). A student, by the way, would
read that "seven thousuud seven hund
red and seventy-seven in parentheses,"
but tho cowman calls it "four sovens
in brackets." Sinciiar ones are as fol
lows: (9999), (GGG). Theso three uro

JAPANESE WRESTLERS.
A. TOURNAMENT IN A TEMPLE
COURT TARD.
Shinto Priests Referced the Contests
With a Fan-Grotesque Prelimi
naries—What Constitutes a Throw
ONE day when I was painting
the willows, writes Alfred
Parsons, from Japan, my boy
Matsuba, who had plenty of
spare time lor investigating the neigh
borhood while waiting to carry home
oiy umbrella and things, came and
told me that thcro was a wrestling
match at a small temple about a mile
tway. I packed up at once and we
walked over there, for I was very nnx
ous to see what kind of a sport it was.
This was a tournament, and all the
professional, wrestlers of the neigh
oorhood, and many youths anxious to
listinguish themselves, had collected
to take part in it. They were divided
into three classes. The masters of
the art were all past their first youth ;
act enormously stout, as they are of
:en represented in drawings and carv
;ug, but line athletic men, taller than
:he average of Japanese. They wore
chier hair in the ancient stylo, 6haved
iway from the center of tho head, and
chat from the back and side made into
i queue, turned up and knotted with
string on tho top of tho poll; they had
no clothes except a loin cloth and an
embroidered apron. In the sec
ond class were men who had
won but few prizes; they were
not all in tho professional get-up, ami
some of them wero evidently laboring
men with a taste for sport. The third
class was composed of youths, none
of them more than nineteen or twenty
years old. The contests took place in
the temple courtyard ou a circular
bed of sand, under a roof supported
by wooden pillars, but not enclosed
at the sides; round the edge of this
raised circle thero was laid a straw
rope, and the man won who could
either fairly throw his opponent or
force him across the rope without be
ing dragged over himself. The pro
ceedings were conducted by a Shinto
priest in full dress, wide trousers and
a coat sticking out from the shoulders
like that of a modern young lady, who
with a peculiar shaped fan gave the
signal to begin and to stop. For the
highest class this umpire was a vener
able old gentleman; for the others the
place was taken by young priests who
needed to learn this pnrt of the busi
ness. The u restlers came 011 in pair 3
as their names were called, and after
a great deal of morching round, stump
ing, rubbing their limbs, making ges
tures of defiance, and so on, they
squatted opposite each other. When
tho signal was given to begin
they rested their fingers on the
ground between their knees, and
ieaued toward each other till their
foreheads touched, sometimes waiting
several minutes before attempting to
make any grip. If tho grip seemed
unfair or unsatisfactory to one of tho
opponents, ho immediately put down
his hands,the priest stopped the bout,
and all the preliminary business had
to bo gone through again, but if it
seemed all right the stiugglo began,
and sometimes lasted for five min
utes, each man straining every mus
cle in a splendid way, and usiug all
tho science and cunning he knew. If
it lasted too long without either man
gaining any advantage, the priest sig
nalled to them to stop, and they had
to wait till their turn came round
again. Everything was conducted in
tho most ceremonious and orderly
luanner, and there was no drunken
ness or rowdyism, although the multi
tude who had assembled wero of tho
poorest class. The most fashions bio
wrestling-matches are held in Tokyo
in spring and autumn, and tho cham
pion is as much a popular favorite as
a famous torero in Spain, or a well
known prize fighter in England and
America.—Harper's Magazine.

sage of it was written with pen in

morning, usually about five o'clock,
prop mysolf up in bed, and, with
closed eyes, think out my work for the
day, until not only the thing took
shape, but every passage found ex
pression. About eight o'clock I would
get up and hurriedly write down tho
words. This would occupy about an
hour, and then 1 would do nothing
but road until evening, when I spent
another hour in revising or rewriting
what I had written in tho morning,
and the rest of the night in planning
the work for tho following day."—

No Substitutes
For Royal Baking Powder. The "Royal"
is shown by all tests, official, scientific, and prac
tical, stronger, purer, and better in every way
than all other Baking Powders. Its superiority
is privately acknowledged by other manufac
turers, and well known by all dealers.
If some grocers try to sell another baking
powder in place of the "Royal," it is because of
the greater profit. This of itself is good evidence
of the superiority of the " Royal." To give greater
profit the other must be a lower cost powder, and
to cost less it must be made with cheaper and
inferior materials, and thus, though selling for the
same, give less value to the consumer.
LOOK with suspicion upon every attempt to palm off
upon you any baking powder in place of the
"Royal." There is no substitute for the "Royal."
