IN BLEEDING KANSAS.

T. A. Hendricks Tells of the Great Damage That Has Been Done By the Drouth.

OTTAWA, Kans, July 26, 1901—To THE JOURNAL, Crawfordsville, Ind.— I have noticed in your WEEKLY JOURNAL about the dry hot weather and your corn crop. If Indiana is in as bad shape as Kansas you all have our sympathy.

I he corn in this section of the country is almost a complete failure. It is now 65 cents per bushel and the prospects are that it will reach a dollar before another crop can be raised. We have net had the ground good and wet since the big snow the first day of April. Farmers are all having to drive what stock they have from three to seven miles for water. My uncle here has some fine yearling heifers and cancot get but one and a half cents per pound. All the stock has been shipped out that would sell on the markets at all. One man living about a mile from us drove thirty-two head of pigs to the creek and turned his back on them and et them go. He had nothing to feed and did not want to kill them, just turned them out to feed themselves. Clover hay is selling for $20 per ton, wild grass $16. Corn^cutting has begun. Farmers are trying to save their fodder but think it can never be done.

We have nothing in our gardens. Fruit all dried up on the trees. There will be the greatest demand for seed corn in the spring than ever before in Kansas. We have a prospect now for rain to-day, but we have not got it yet If this wind continues we may get a shower to-night. Hoping you are all faring better than we arc at present will close. Very truly yours,

The number of deaths under one year of age was 350, being 16.9 per cent, of the whole number. From 1 to inclusive, there were 136 deaths, or 6.4 per cent, of the whole number, and of those who were 65 and over, tht-'e were 486 deaths, which is 22.9 per cent, of the whole number of deaths. Important causes of death were as follows: cm

Pulmcnary consumption 291, a rate of 141 per 100,000 typhoid fever 22, rate 10.6: diphtheria 15, rate 7.2: scaret fever 11 rate 5.3 measles 13, rate 6.3 whooping cough 10, rate 4.6 pneumonia 101, rate 48.9 diarrheal diseases 08, rate 32.9 cerebro spinal meningitis 24, rate 11.6 influenza 1G, rate 7.7 cancer 83, rate 40.2: violence 158, rate 76.5. Pulmonary consumption and pneumonia only outrank cancer as a cause of death during the month. For the corresponding month of last year, the three diseases last mentioned stood as follows:

Consumption, rate 165.9 pneumonia, 111.2 cancer, 35.6. The comparison, therefore, shows a decrease as compared with the corresponding month last year of consumption and pheumonia, but an increase of cancer. Diarrheal diseases in June show a large increase over May. This is to be expected, for it is well known that such diseases increase with the hot weather, due to more rapid fermentation and bacterial growth. We have to record three deaths from smallpox, one in Allen county, one in Clinton and one in Laporte. This is a very insignificant death rate, because there have been probably in the neighborhood of one thousand cases of smallpox. Even an approximate number can not be given because there are so many cases to which physicians have never been called and thvre are many cases which physicians have failed to diagnose. Such cases, of course, escape quarantine and all record, but subsequent examinations prove they have existed.

HEALTH STATISTICS.

The Report of the State Board Health for the Month or June.

of

The number of deaths reported for the month was i!,243, making a death rate of 10.8. For the corresponding month last year, there were 2,255 deaths. Compared with the preceding month, May, there is a decrease in the number of deaths of 313, and a decrease in the death rate of 1.1. This corresponds very satisfactorily with the morbidity reports which show a decreased sickness rate of about tea per cent.

Saturday evening at Mace a girl aged about seventeen years by the name of Jarvis, fell dead. She had been help ing the harvesters in the barn and becoming heated, stepped to the door and while standing there tfell over dead. She had been troubled with palpitation of the heart previously and this with the intense heat caused her death. She was the daughter of the widow Jarvis, and was a most estimable young lady. The funeral occurred on Monday at Union chapel, conducted by Rev. Elliott.

BETRAYAL.

Out OF the chilling rain and fog That hid ilie mountain from our sight A dusky cloml came floating down ..At early dawn of light.

The cloud dropped softly to the lake Amid a sound of whirring wings..-. And spread into a graceful line

A host of living things.

W a The sunless day seemed dark no more,

!'v

When suddenly a shot rang out And echoed round the sl^orc.

The waterfowl were nature's guests, But they were doomed, and all thatvday The shots pealed forth, am) on the waves

The dead and dying lay.

At last into the brooding mist There vanished, softly as it came, A broken flock, with plumage torn,

After that day of shame. -•/.

UNINHABITED ISLANDS.

There Are i'hoiisnnds of Tliein la the Indian Ooean. If you should want nil island—Hint is, an uiiiniiabili'ii island—l'or the purpose of occupying it alum.', Kobinson Crusoe like, or to use it for romantic fiction or for any other purpose, to the exclusion of all oiheir- in the world, you need have uo trouble in fmdiii! one if you see lit to make a journey to the Indian ocean. In the waters between Madagascar and India you can lind more than 13,000 of them, where there is not. a lmniau being and where you can. if you will, be monarch of all you survey.

An Knglish traveler has recently been among tin small islands that dot the western end of the Indian ocean to make an inventory of them and reports that lie counted 10.100 and found only about 000 of them inhabited. .Now, there is a good chance for any one who may want, an island.

These particular islands are not large, as islands go. but very many of them are sutiicient for the purpose of a Kobinson Crusoe or any other novel hero or for even a small colony of shipwrecked mariners or oilier persons who might be cast on one of them or seek for the purpose of making a home pretty much out of the busy world.

Some of them are only an acre or two, well elevated above the tide, while others are a quarter of a mile in diameter and running from that up to a mile or two in length and a quarter or less of the length in breadth. Many of them are granitic structure* that rise steeply from 20 to 100 feet, well covered with rich soil, through which small fresh water streams hurry to the sea, which they reach after (lowing over beaches of glistening calcareous sand that are begirt by coral reel's, which form walls about the islands.

Mow lie Saved Ills Dinner. In the little town of Arundel there is a taxidermist who is gift.od with wonderful presence of mind. Here is an instance:

Some time ago a gentleman called at his shop with a cock pheasant, which he desired to have skinned, stating at the same time that he did not require the body. This quite suited the taxidermist, who thought the pheasant would do l'or his dinner on the morrow.

However, later in the day the gentleman called again .and said that he would take the body away. The taxidermist replied that it was unusual for customers to take the bodies away, but that lie had uo objection, and he fetched the bird, which his wife had put tui a plate and covered with flour. 'Ah!" exclaimed the gentleman. "It looks very jiice. But what is this white powder with which it is covered?" "Oh, that," replied the taxidermist quietly, "is arsenic. I always cover the bodies with that until I can dispose of them." 'Ar-arsenic!" stammered the gentleman. "Why, I thought that the bird would be good to eat. Thank you, I won't trouble to take it away with me. Good day."

The taxidermist had saved his dinner.—London Answers.

Rnde Justice.

A certain Arizona justice of the peace, whose knowledge of the law was never gained from books or actual practice before the bar, was hearing an assault and battery case. The lawyer for tjie defense was shouting his arguments when the court said: "That will do. Sit down."

He then adjusted his spectacles and sagely observed: "Prisoner, sthand up! Accordln tah th' law an th' evydince—an there is no evydince—Oi found yez guilty, sor, an foine yez $30. If yez air guilty, faith, it's a very light sintince, an if yez are not guilty it'll be a mighty good lesson for yez!"—Detroit Free Press.

The i'rndent Scotsman.

A cautious Scotsman, 85 years old, had saved enough to purchase a piece of freehold land upon which he had had his eye for some time. He repaired to the freeholder and opened negotiations for the purchase. The freeholder, however, informed him that for some reason or other he could not part with the freehold, but said he would give him a lease for 999 years. This, he was informed, was practically the same thing. "Na, na," said the aged one, shaking his gray head "time soon rins awa'."—London Outlook.

The Only Difference.

Mrs. Syrnperly—Now that you have got your divorce and are happy with Mr. Ranger, life is real once more, isn't it?

Mrs. Ranger—Oh, yes only it's very much like it used to be, except that the piano is a different make.—Brooklyn Life.

It is said that mate, the South American tea, will sustain life many days without the pangs of hunger.

Man is born to rule, but woman comes along and beats him out of his Job.—Chicago Isews.

Tie Skin

W. C.

WWWW JONL

Only

Millions of little glands or tubes connect the blood with the skin, and through these small drain pipes perspiration passes out, carrying with it the impurities that are thrown off by the blood. Should the pores of the skin be entirely closed for even a brief space of time, and the poisonous matter forced back into the circulation, instant death would result. In addition to the sweat glands, the skin is provided with certain others which pour out upon it an oilv substance, keeping the 6kin pliable and soft and protecting it from heat and cold* The blood and skin are so closely related that whatever affects one seriously interferes with the functions of the other. Not only health, but life itself, depends upon perfect harmony between the blood and skin. When, therefore, the blood becomes poisoned from any cause, it quickly S manifests itself upon the skin in the form of sores and ulcers, pimples and various Ex.tR*F3 £5i3 PtttK KODItSk eruptive diseases. By the character of the sore we are enabled to determine the nature of the poison or liumor in the blood, as every disease originating in the blood has its own peculiar sore or pimple. The skin is not only affected by the poisons generated in the system, but poisons from without enter through the open glands or pores and quickly infect the blood. Mercury rubbed upon the skin will produce Rheumatism, and Poison Oak and Ivy and other wild plants gain easy access to the blood through the skin. As so-called skin diseases originate in the blood, the application aHEB*® RS&OSi'-- of powders, soaps and washes can do no permanent ma a good, but often do immense damage by ZSOrtp fuGtSieSS^ C.KMS3 closing up the outlet: to these little tubes and interfering with the natural action of the skin. The treatment must begin with the blood, and the acid or other poisons antidoted or neutralized. S. S. S. does this and purifies the circulation, builds up the blood and flushes the little glands or pores with pure, new blood, and restores healthy action to the skin. The use of cosmetics never yet brought health and beauty to a rough, red, pimply skin or sallow complexion. What is needed is rich, pure blood, such as S. S. S. makes. It not only relieves you of all disfiguring blackheads, blotches and irritating, itching eruptions, but improves your general health. S. S. S. contains no mercuiy, potash, arsenic or other mineral, but is a purely vegetable remedy and the safest and best in all blood and skin troubles.
