Aboriginal Instinct.

When the statue of Washington was unveiled at Paris last summer a happy group of American students were waking the echoes from time to time with their college yell. One French woman said nervously to another, “Why do they make that frightful noise?” Her companion answered with calm superiority, “My dear, it’s the savage in them!”—Judge.

What Do the Children Drink?

Don’t give them tea or coffee. Have you tried the new food drink called GRAIN-O? It is delicious and nourishing and takes the place of Coffee. TWe more Grain-0 you give the children the more health you distribute through their systems. Grain-0 is made of pure grains, and when properly prepared tastes like the choice grades of coffee, but costa about M much. Ail grocers sell it. 15e and 25c.

Crows as Enemies of Terrapins .

The crow Is the evil genius of thi turtle just as of the diamond back and other terrapins. When the warm days of spring come and the female terrapins and turtles leave their beds in ths marsh, the crow goes on guard, knowing that a season of feasting is at hand. Both terrapins and turtles seek the warm, sandy uplands near the shore to deposit their eggs. A hole is dug several Inches deep and from twenty to thirty oblong white eggs are deposited and then the nest is filled or covered with sand. Having neatly piled, the sand over the eggs, the turtle raises herself just as high as it is. possible, then comes down with a heavy thud on the sand. This is continued until the sand is quite hard, when the eggs are left to the sun to hatch. In the meantime the crow has been on guard, and by means of his sharp bill and strong claws the work of breaking into the treasure house of tho unsuspecting turtle is quickly accomplished and the feast is soon over. The crow is considered by many to be the greatest enemy the diamond back has. It is an easily established fact that the crow destroys thousands of the eggs of all kinds of terrapins, not making an exception of the diamond back.

Better Than ‘Christian Science.”

Jetmore, Kans., July Ist—Mrs. Anna Jones Freeman, daughter of Mr. G. G. Jones of Burdett, and one of the most popular ladles in Hodgeman County has been a martyr to headache for years. It has made her life a continual misery to her. She suffered pains in the small of the back, and had every symptom of Kidney and Urinary Trouble. Tp-day she is well as any lady in tho state. This remarkable change was duo entirely to a remedy recently introduced here. It Is called Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and many people claim it to be an infallible cure for Kidney Diseases, Rheumatism and Heart Trouble. Mrs. Freeman heard of Dodd’s Kid-, ney Pills, and almost with tho first dose, she grew better. In a week, her head aches and other pains bad gone, and she had left behind her all her illness and days of misery. A medicine that can do for any one what Dodd’s Kidney Pills have done for this lady is very Boon to be universally used, and already the demand for these pills has increased wonderfully in Pawnee and Hodgeman Counties, where the particulars of Mrs. Freeman's case and its cure are known.

HOT WAVE SCORCHES.

WHOLECOUNTRY SUFFERS FROM HIGH TEMPERATURE. Blistering Zephyrs Are Felt Over Wide Area—Many Deaths and Prostrations Reported—Great Suffering; ia Cities— Record Broken in Chicago. Reports to the weather bureau in Washington Sunday from pointe throughout the hot wave area showed remarkably high temperatures generally, with little or no rainfall. Some of the high temperatures reported at the bureau were the following: Atlantic City 94 Marquette, Mich. ..96 Boston 92 Memphis 90 Chicago 97 New Orleans ~.,..94 Cincinnati ........96 North Platte, Neb. .92 Davenport, lowa. .98 Omaha 98 Denver 94 Pittsburg 94 Des Moines, 10wa.96 St. Paul 90 Indianapolis 94 Springfield, 111. ...98 Jacksonville 94 Vicksburg, Mi55....90 Kansas City 98 Washington, D. C.. 98 Little Rock 90 St. Louis 100 Special dispatches from various points Indicate that all portions of the country suffered from the extreme heat. At Pittsburg eleven deaths between Saturday night and midnight Sunday are directly traceable to the heat. Within eighteen hours fifty-nine burial permits were issued, the mortality being greatest among children. The normal death rate for the same period would be sixteen. In New York City nineteen persons were killed Sunday by sun stroke, and the list of prostrations was a long one. Of these many cannot recover. Horses died by the hundred. The fact that it was Sunday alone is responsible for the reasonably small number of deaths and prostrations, when the terrific heat ia taken into consideration. The day also saved the horses. Two hundred and fifty died on Saturday, but as not many were in harness Sunday the list killed was small. Philadelphia experienced the hottest Sunday since 1897, the temperature in the streets reaching above 100. Ono death and twenty-five prostrations art recorded. Three deaths occurred Saturday in Lawrence, Mass. At Manchester, N. H., there were three deaths from the heat. Boston reports only one death attributed to heat, but there were many cases of serious prostration. The suffering was terrible among the poor people and the hospitals were crowded to the uttermost. Cleveland experienced the hottest Sunday of the year. One death from sunatroke is reported. Sunday was the hottest June day Chicago has experienced since 1872. Tho temperature in the high-up weather tower rose to 97 degrees and held to this mark for over two hours during the middle of the afternoon. On the street thermometers registered 102 degrees in tho shade. The sizzling period came after a tolerable morning. Midway between 2 and 3 o’clock, the wind shifted from southeast to southwest, and the thermometer went up 13 degrees at a jump. In the history of the government office in Chicago for official weather forecasting and registering, the day will go dowa as a record breaker—for June—with just one exception. That day was June 19, 1872, when the thermometer recorded 98 degrees. While the greater mortality is noticeable in the East, the West and Southwest are suffering from drought. Live stock is .suffering heavily, as wells have dried up and the pastures are bare. At Burlington, lowa, much illness ia traceable to the stifling heat. Frank Dunham, a veteran in the railway mail service, was killed by sunstroke. At Benton, 111., Ambrose Rice, a farmer, demented by the heat, hanged himself. Various Illinois points report a temperature exceeding 100 in the shade.

RAILROADS

Flour rates from the twin cities to the East have been advanced. It la expected that the El Paao extension of the Rock Island will be finished by Not. 1. A coat of arms of elaborate design has been adopted to represent the Chicago and Alton Railroad. The fl charge for deposit ot through tourist tickets la Buffalo has been abol. isbed by the railroads. Officers of the Northern Pacific road report that large quantities of cotton are being shipped to Japan. Work will soon ba atarted on an elaborate enlargement of the shops of the Wabash Railroad in Fort Wayne, Ind.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

Organized labor, particularly in New England, is greatly interested in the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the

connection of Geo. E. McNeill of Boston with the union labor movement. Fifty years ago Mr. McNeill began agitating in favor of the eight-hour work day, and ha has been active in that direction ever since. He was the first field agent of the Eight-Hour League, and has won the title of “Father of the Eight-Hour Day.” Beginning life as a bobbin boy in a woolen mill, he hag devoted half a century to forwarding

GEO. E. M’NEILL.

the cause of organized labor. He has written several books on labor subjects, and in 188 G was the labor candidate for Mayor of Boston. In 1885 he was chosen as arbitrator of the great Boston street car strike, and by his influence succeeded in settling it. He was born in Amesbury, Mass., in 1837.

she is only attempting to enforce the law by strictly legal method*. She personally visited a number of saloons which were open on Sunday, and personally secured the evidence on which the offending saloonkeepers were arrested.

titled the Meese Matrimonial Association, has just held its fifth annual reunion at Waterloo, Ind. Mr. Mees? is an historical character in his section of Indiana. Ever since his wife died, in 1894, he has lived alone, devoting all his time and ener-

gy to inducing people to marry. It is said that he has performed more marriage ceremonies than any other minister or squire in Indiana. Whatever of this, the number of people he has joined in wedlock exceeds 2,000 couples. It was In 1890 that Mr. Meese succeeded in getting the various people he had married to form an association, with the purpose of holding annual reunions, his idea being that this feature would encourage matrimony in general, and also tend to prevent marital disputes and divorces. Not one divorce has ever been asked for among his matrimonial proteges.

The suggestion of giving him the new portfolio—in case It be created by Congress- is regarded as a peculiarly fortunate one. This entirely apart from the fact that Mr. Search is an Intimate and sympathetic friend of the President.
