Don’t ask for a pound of Mocha and Java, or buy by the price, for Coffee fluctuates and you cannot get the same coffee for die ««»»»» price all the time jjV unlea you pay too much for it Most of the so-caßed Mocha and Java Coffee is simply masquerading, and is not nearly as good coffee for you as Aibuckles’ ARIOSA, the blend of the Coffees most suitable to the taste and health of American people. By the • looks there a no difference between roasted Java and Brazilian Coffees; The principal difference is that ArbuckW costs you less/ It i. a mistake to believe that a high price guarantees quality. When you buy Aibuckles* ARIOSA Coffee, you get a full one pound package of the leading Coffee of the world. Its sales for 37 years are greater than die combined sales of all the other packaged coffees. By giving better Coffee for the money, we have built up a business exceeding the combined businesses of die four nexi largest coffee in the whole world.

UNDER THE ARCH
On the banks of the Grand canal cf Venice and directly facing the palace of the doge a great group of men and Women were gathered and threatening vengeance on somebody in their midst. On the stone flagging of the canal bank and surrounded by the crowd lay a cursing man, his clothes dripping with water. Near him and held tightly by two men is a small goblinlike piece of humanity, with a tom dress., His age exceeds twenty. His height, not more than three and one-half feet, his dark hair falling over his broad shoulders and his small, black, twinkling eyes give this small fellow the appearance •f a supernatural goblin of the old school. “Oh, if I was only strong enough! If I could only get this water out of my ears and eyes, wouldn’t I have vengeance!” shouts the man on the stones in a raging voice. “Don’t I tell you all ’twas but an accident?” cries out the dwarf, v?fco has no friends in the crowd. “Throw him into the canal. He shall drown, as he well nigh caused Matteo to do.” “Hold, you wretches!” “Senora Valdois,” murmurs the populace in surprise. “Yes,” answered the lady, who is quite young and handsome. “What do you with yon dwarf?” . “A. little devil, senora.” said one of the gondola men, “who in a foul and malicious manner did cast into yon canal this poor and innocent fellow." “ ’Twas false,” stoutly denied the dwarf. “That base coward”—meaning the wet man—“for three days has done naught but drink, and this morning did knock most heavily ’gainst me as I stood on the hank of this canal. Without looking, I pushed him aside, and jthe first I knew’ was his cry for help as he tumbled into the water." “What Is your name?” the lady asked. “Braganta, senora,” the dwarf replied. “You must release this fellow,” the lady said. “But, senora, he,is the pest of the city. We must cast him into the canal.” Senora- Valdois, making a sudden movement, catches the dwarf and has. him at her side. “Now, at your life’s peril, touch him!” cried the brave woman to the revengeful populace. She turns quickly, pushes the dwarf before her. and both quickly descend the Water stairs and enter the senora’s gondola, which rapidly disappears under one of the arches of the doge’s palace. Night on the Grand canal of Venice. Senora Valdois, sitting in her gondola, accompanied by Lucretla, her maid, enjoys the beauty of the night. The great bell of St Marie, pealing oat midnight, makes the senora’s maid asks
“Had we not better turn to home, senora? 'Tls midnight” "That is early for a light night like this. Why, you’re not afraid?" And the lady laughs. The gondola, passing through a dark, long arch under one of the palaces, comes to a sudden stop, and the gondolier’s white, blood smeared face floats op the canal waters, a knife Just then being dri- «n into his heart and throat by a r nge dark man, who a moment aii_. leaps into the gondola. "Don’t cry out,” he says savagely, “or I’ll drive this dagger into your heart!” “Ruffian,” cried Senora Valdols, “what want you here?” "I want gold—l want those priceless rabies and tliose diamonds and that gold cross, which alone is a fortune,” cried the robber. "You shall have nothing. I’ll call for help.” ' “You die, then!” And the robber presented his dagger. “I am resolved to possess them.” During this occurrence the gondola remained in the deep, datV shadow of
the palace arch. The man made a step toward the lady and put his hand on her wrist and with his other hand grasped the golden cross from her neck. Senora Valdois gave a piercing scream. With a fierce cry, the robber turned upon her and raised the dagger to strike. But a small man with flowing hair came through the gondola opening, a strong arm grasped the uplifted dagger, and after a struggle the robber was forced out of the gondola and’ went with a splash into the waters of the canal, where he died in intense torture. Senora Valdois uttered a cry of Joy and surprise: “Braganta!” “Yes, lady,” cried her preserver. “Hearing a sudden cry of distress, lhurried across to this arch, saw that villain attempt your life and was Just ft time.” "• . —;■ -'-/■■■:--■ -.-—"..-fa "Generous man, you have saved my life." “You saved mine this morning. I be ye l:ut repaid the debt.” "For this night’s service, good Bragauta. you shall be well rewarded. My lather's gratitude will lie unbounded. You must accompany me to the palace.” And through the clear moonlight skimmed the gondola, »nor did it stop til) they arrived at the white water stairs that led up to the palace of Valdois, Mercedes’ father’s home. Front. that night Braganta was Installed in Signor Valdois’ palace, whose gratitude for delivering his daughter from death was great. So the remainder of the dwarf’s days were happy and long in the palace of YaJ.dois. ,
Save the Early Pullets.
Don’t make a mistake in the selection of birds for next winter’s layers. Many farmers sell their largest, earli est hatched birds because they arc in good demand and will bring a good price. Keep the earliest hatched, best developed birds for your egg producers and breeders. All that are left are the late hatched pullets and cockerels that go undeveloped into winter quarters. Breeding from such birds will degenerate any flock of fowls if you persist in such methods long enough. To have early winter layers the birds must grow to maturity. The early hatched healthy chick makes the good winter layer. Grain For Hogs on Pasture. Some grain should be fed to the hogs on grazing crops—one to three pounds per day, depending on the age and size of the animals. An ear or two of com will often be all that is necessary, says a hog grower. By using grazing crops the corn can be made to go much further and a better quality of pork obtained at a lower cost per pound. Hogs kept on grazing crops are under the very .best sanitary conditions. The plan suggested will provide grazing for twenty-five to flftj hogs, depending on the character of the land and the crop season.

PILGRIM JOE TALKS,
Makes Things Clear For Those Who, Patronize Him. IMPOSTORS GIVEN A WARNING Are Told Not' to Use His Name—His Moving Pictures Do Move and Are a Success—Speaks of Napoleon Crossing the Alps. CCopJ-right, 1907. by M. M. Cunningham.] As my outfit is being confounded with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show’, the theatrical trust and the side show exhibiting the wild girl from Borneo, I wish to make things clear to the public who patronize me. I am the original and only Pilgrim Joe. Any one else taking my name Is a base impostor. I invented the fifteen minute corn cure. You take one minute to rub it on and fourteen more to wonder where the corn went to. I Invented the Pilgrim Joe hair grower. It is not for the human head, but for straw beds and mattresses. Two applications makes a hair mattress out of a Btraw bed. Three appli-
"tot; SEE NAPOLEON CBOBBING THE ALPS.” cations grow hair on an old rug or rag carpet and make Persian prayer rugs of them. I Invented Pilgrim Joe’s admirable alternative. Eat two dozen green apples and one dose will cure any case of colic you may have. The alternative is to die If you don’t keep it handy in the house. One tablespoonful of my alternative dissolved in hot water will make the family washing look whiter than snow. I invented Pilgrim Joe’s Pain Alleviator, the greatest thing of the kind known to the world. It has saved ten million people from the grave during tlie last fifteen years and thus prevented a trust in cemetery lots. Kings take it. Emperors cry for it. Czars will have no other.
Instills Ambition. I travel over the country sorrering with the sorrowful aud lifting up the downtrodden and despairing. I instill ambition and renew hope. I peel off the old hide and grow a new one. I take tintypes at 10 cents a take. I carry a grasshopper in a'bottle to show the world that even the most ferocious animal can be tamed by kindness. I have a fighting dog under the wagon, and the old hoss that draws my wagon can make a mile in 2:40 on the track. * My latest and perhaps most interesting exhibition is a number of moving pictures that do move. After the sale of my medicines on the public square I open my picture exhibition and give a lecture explaining things. There are no bucking bronchos. There are no Indians nor buffaloes. There is no stage robbery. There is no theatrical performance. It is simply my show and no one else’s, and the public should not get things mixed up. I was a leading theatrical man years ago, but finding that I was expected to marry and get a divorce at least twice a year I gave it up.
In my moving pictures I show General Washington at Valley Forge. He is suffering with hunger. He moves over to the cupboard and gnaws a bone. He moves back to the fireplace and gnaws a sassafras root. He is seen sighing and shaking his bead. The audience eak see that he despairs of American liberty. One bowl of oatmeal and milk would win independence; but, alas, It Is not there. As this picture finally moves along out of sight thete 1b not a dry eye in the hall. Men have offered me $5 If I would feed the general up and let him go ahead and lick the British, but I have refused. I stick rigidly to the historical in presenting my pictures. I show Louis XVI. on the scaffold. He is walking back and forth and wondering whether he had better die or not. He muses. He ponders. He finally decides that as the revolutionists have gone to so much trouble to get things ready he will not disappoint them. He nods to the executioner to do his duty and takes' his place oa the plank and has his head cut off. This picture is so realistic that husbands and wives go home and dispute on the quantity of blood shed. Ton see Napoleon at Waterloo. For a time his countenance wears a benign expression, and you can fairly read his thoughts. He is going to lie? the English and then forgive them if they Won’t do so' any more. .Then he seems to be puzzled, the same as a mao who finds four aces in his hand
and suspects the other teller has a straight flash. Then there is a Startled look, followed by one that plainly says he has bitten off more than he can chaw and guesses he will go home and play with his Teddy bear, You see him on the skate, and he isn’t stopping farmers to ask after the statq of the buckwheat crop. You see Shakespeare at home. He isn’t writing any of his tragedies, but is out in the field and on the move. The artist caught him just as he was looking for the eggs of the meadow lark in the grass. He finds some; also some bumblebees. Every audience has the highest respect for Shakespeare, but when he takes a skip over the nearest fence and plunges into the blackberry bushes the laughter cannot be restrained. Most people are surprised to find that the bumblebee was known so long ago and that his ways were the same as now. The Battle of Gettysburg. The battle of Gettysburg is shown in nil its ferocity. Generals Meade, Hancock, Sheridan and others are shown on their rearing steeds, and thousands of old veterans can pick out the very spot where they stood. I point out and name the various generals, but there is one figure that I do not have to name. It is the central one. The fate of the battle seems to depend upon him, and ills attitude shows that he means to win or die. As soon as the audience sees this figure there is a mighty shout of “Pilgrim Joe! Pilgrim Joe!” aud it is sometimes five minutes before I can proceed with my lecture. The great Chicago fire is always a great hit. There are acres aud acres of flames aud thousands and thousands of people fleeing In terror. One fleeing man has just thrown away one dozen bottles of Pilgrim Joe's Tain Alleviator, and as the audience becomes aware of the fact a groan of despair resounds through the hall. The wall of fire advances until those on the front seats begin to move back, and then it is gone. I may add that the dozen bottles were never recovered. You see Caesar and Brutus meet Caesar knows that Brutus has got It in for him, but he acts as if they were twin brothers and the best of friends. The audience knows that Brutus Is planning assassination, but they hope be has left his dagger behind. The two men move here and there, apparently talking about the jump in wheat and at a proper moment Brutus pulls the dagger and strikes home. Caesar looks astonished and stands around for a minute and then concludes to die. A district messenger boy comes in and hands Brutus a telegram from his mother-in-law, and after a long look at the corpse at his feet he goes out. Nothing could be more lifelike. Napoleon Crossing the Alps. You see Napoleon crossing the AlpsIt snows. It blows. There are mountains 2.000 feet high for his horse to jump over, but he is a blue ribbon jumper from the Madison Square Garden horse show, and he takes everything that comes along. You see the great Napoleon looking for the euemy; also for a hot Scotch. He moves onward to new glories aud new victories, and you can just imagine that macaroni will be cheap when he gets over into % Italy and has a chance at the army. 1 have not mentioned more than half of my moving pictures, but from what I have described you can see what a feast of reason awaits you. Purchasers of my medicines are not entitled to free admission to the show. Each stands on its own merits, and each is worth double the price asked. Wait for me. Take no other. There is nothing “just as good” and the critter who tries to make you believe it is a hoss thief and a liar. The original and only Pilgrim Joe. Preceded by no brass band, but by a wave of enthusiasm. Yaller handbills will notify you of when I am to pass your farm or reach your house, and don’t confound me with any traveling circus that simply seeks your cash.

BUDDING TREES. : Practical Directions For Securing Good Results. Budding is generally done in August . because then the bark is more easily separated from the wood stock of the tree, explains a- Massachusetts writer in American Cultivator. Sometimes It may he In the-early part of the month, and sometimes the latter part, according to location and growth, and then again the buds you are desirous to In-' sert must be sufficiently matured, which you can generally determine by the terminal bud being fully developed. Take from a branch of this year's growth. The life of the tree or hurt
lies in the cambium layer, or alburnum, and the two must meet—the alburnum of the bud inserted and that of the tree, which lies between the inner surface of the bark and the outer portion of the wood. Bear this in mind and keep to it and you can make no mistake, provided, of course, all the other requirements are carried oak The bads should be plump and mature when taken from the shoots of the current year’s growth. The “bod stocks” should be cut the day the bads are to be inserted, trimmed and wrapped at once in a damp cloth to prevent drying on. Trimming consists in cutting off the leaves, saving a bit of the stem to use as a handle in inserting. In cutting the buds use a sharp knife. Insert the blade of the knife one-foorth of an inch below the bud and cut up Just behind the bud, removing but little of the wood and edming out about onefourth of an inch above the bud. (See A.) To insert the bud make a T shaped incision in the stock about two inches above the ground. (See B.) With the spatula of the budding knife loosen the lips of the bark in angle of the T cat and slip in the bod. (See B.) The bud must be held firmly in place by a bandage wound above and below, being careful to leave the eye of the bud uncovered. Raffia fiber (wet), bast, candle wick or waxed cloth may be used for tying. Raffia is usually employed. If the bud “takes,” remove the bandage in about ten days by cutting loose on the back side of the stock to prevent the hindering of growth of the bud. In three or four weeks cut off the stock just above .the bud to stimulate the growth of the new bud.
Nursery Label. This cheap and practical nursery label is used and. It is believed, got up by a Connecticut nursery company. Rural New Yorker, in illustrating the
device, says It is informed by the nursery company that the label is not patented aud all are welcome to nse it. It consists of a piece of hard wood I*4 by 2 Inches and a foot long in dimensions. One surface is smoothly planed, and to the other is securely stapled a loop of well ga 1 v a n i zed, heavy telegraph wire, the free ends forming a pair of legs nearly two fee?

long. These are deeply thrust In the soil, diverging as they enter, and form a good support. The smooth front surface of the wood may be coated with white lead paint and the name Written with a heavy black, lead or graphite pencil, making a record that will endure several years, or rendered more durable still by writing on a sheet of weather zinc, tacked to the surface.
Colts and Mules. There Is a chance yet for a crop of colts next year, after the summer work Is done. Fall colts, when cared for, do well and grow like weeds and are almost clear gain. Try it. Farmers are taking more interest in the raising of mules. Prices for strong young mules are high, and the demand is increasing. Raise a few and watch them grow into money.— Farm Jonrnal. Cement Posts. A well known farmer operating an extensive farm in lowa has attested his faith in cement posts by buying enough of them to make ten miles of fence; says a writer in lowa Homestead. The fence proposition has Is undergoing a rapid transition surely.
