Leslie's Weekly. We Are Xot So Old. Recent studies by Prof. Tenck In the Alps, combined with those of Hugo Obermalsr, a distinguished pupil of Penck, in the Pyrenees, Lave had the effect of considerably shortening the estimate of the length of time that has elapsed since prehistoric man left the marks of his presence in Europe. It now appears that both in the Alps and the Pyrenees there exist contemporary geological records sh swing four successive, periods of J lternate advance and retreat of glaclatlon. Heretofore it has been considered probable that prehistoric men dwelt In the neighborhood of these mountains during the last two Invasions of the ice, but the new evidence is regarded as proving that It wa& only of the last, or fourth glacial advance that. man was a living witness.

I have a cousin in Rockingham County, who once had a skin disease from her birth until she wis six years of age. Her father had spent a fortune on her to get her cured and none of the treatments did her any cood. Old Dr. G suggested that he try the Cuticura Remedies, which he did. When he commenced to XLse it the child was almost a solid scab. He had used it about two months and the child was well. I was there when they commenced to use your Cuticura Remedies. 1 stayed that week and then returned home" and stayed two weeks and then weri back and stayed with them two weeks longer, and when I went home I could hardly believe she was the same child.

In Virginia the white peanut and the small re! peanut are the varieties chiefly produced, while Georgia also largely producer this small red nut. 4 In Tennessee the white nut, which U larger than the red.' and the larger. variety of the red nut are raised. Tho chief peanut counties are Humphreys, Perry, Hickman and Dickson, but the area of peanut cultivation has been enlarged in more recent years, i'ew peanuts are produced in East or Wet Tennessee but in the counties named they are the chief money crop of a large per cent of the farmers. The peanut has many names goober, pindar, earthnut, groundnut, groundpea. Northern soldiers called them goobers and there was a well-known song entitled "Grabbing Goober Peas," which was a favorite with troops "marching through Georgia." Accord Ing to the 1004 census the total peanut crop amounted to ll,tMH.000 bushels, valued at $7,270,000. All . IMPORTANT GASE Patient Cured of Ataxia Gives tha Entire Credit to Dr. William' Pink Pills. Mrs. S. C. Wellock, of 114 Cleveland Avenue, Everett, Mass., the wife of an employe in the government work at Chelsea, says: "I had been troubled with nervousness for ten years and the disease kept growing on me. Then I learned that I was suffering from locomotor ataxia. I had terrible tremblings in my rißht leg which would get rigid and when this happened in the street I uad to stand still until it passed away to keep from falling. My right arm felt as if a thousand needles were pricking it. The Bheet touching 'my knee in bed would nearly cause me to scream out with pain and both knees were so weak I could hardly stand. "I had to use a cane and be helped about by my son. Then the pain be gan to settle tn the calves of my legs and the muscles became numb and quivered constantly. The cords un der my kflees seemed to be drawn up tight and the terrible shooting pains in my legs would nearly drive me In sane. My toes became numb and at 1 times would prickle as if needles were I being thrust into them. My eyes be came dull and biacK spots noatea Defore them. My heart was very weak. "My attention was called to Dr Williams' Pink Pills and I bought sev eral boxes right away and soon felt vt!Ief.

aaaEnuEa3 There Is less objection to cement floors in cow stables than formerly. Close confinement being an unnatural condition to swine, it is liable to lead to sterility. Nothing causes the ri-e of righteous Indignation more than to see a 09-cent man Jerking a ir0 horse. Comfort, contentment and plenty of wholesome food is scarce, fowls of all kinds will eat raw pe.ta toes, cabbage, beets and onions, if chopped fine. Hulled oats are one of the best bone and muscle producing foods that can be fed to poultry. Whatever other grains are fed, oats should, predominate. Great care and attention, should be given to the boar. He should have a Ien for himself some distance from the sows, and sufficiently strong to keep him In. While It is good taste to have a team of the same color and marking, it Is good Judgment and common sense to have a team of equal strength and power of endurance. After all the fuss made about grow ing ginseng there now comes a new danger in the way of a blight which kills the foliage and therefore heads off the seed crop. If prone to look after the affairs of a neighbor, please rememln-r that this Is not the forte of a farmer. The law yer is the only man on earth who can Ket rich attending to the business of other people. The Agricultural Department says we have S8.000.000 head . of sheep, the various assessors say we have J3,000,000, while other statisticians say we have 70,000.000 head. "Who shall de cide when doctors disagree Swelled heads and eyes In chickens and turkeys are often due to exposure to a draft coming through a crack In the poultry-house. Bathe the head in warm water twice a day and anoint the whole head with glycerine. It Is claimed that George Washington was the first breeder of high-grade mules In America. Being dissatisfied with the work of horses, he at once bred a lot of high-class males for service on his big Virginia farm. Potatoes that are too small to'mar ket may be used to advantage as a food for young pigs. Many farmers consider it no loss have from 2 to 3 per cent of their pctulo crop too small for commercial use, as It gives them such a good winter pig food. An enterprising farmer In one of the New England states unloads hay with a machine run by a gas engine instead of a horse. He savs he can unload a load while a man is unhitching the team from a wagon. It pulls up the load, returns the fork and takes the place of a horse and a boy. The everlasting foundation of a farm is its fertility. Poor land grows poor crops. Poor crops are a loss to the farmer and a disappointment to the feeder. Putting manure back on land Is only giving to the land what belongs to it and the obligation is on the shoulders of the farmer. A storm sash is the best way to shut out Jack Frost from the cellar windows. If this is nq,t provided, leaves will be found the next best. It pays to make the cellar frost proof long before there is any danger of low temperature. Forty years ago we made the cellars of our houses warm by building up prairie sods. A farm paper edited by a "real farm-, er," says to cure lampas In a horse's mouth "feed ear corn." It Is barely possible that the writer meant to feed the corn in the ear. The enlargement of the ridges In the roof of the mouth of a horse Is caused by Indigestion In old horses and by teething In young horses. The cure Is, plain; The new government inspection law makes It pretty difficult for goats to masquerade for mutton now. The retall butcher knows what he Is buying, though of course many a consumer will eat his goat chop thinking it is .nighclass mutton. Mohair Is less . In demand for garments also and goat ranches may ieed to send their stock to the brush and tin pile. At the Minnesota State Fair there were exhibited 4,161 plates of fruit, besides fourteen pecks of Wealthy apples for special premiums. One man had fifty plates of seedling apples. This Is a remarkable showing, when one considers how far north Minnesota Is but it is Just about what one would naturally expect In a State where more than 1,200 persons belong to the State Horticultural Society. Humus is the organic matter in the 3oll. It varies in quantity and Is easier kept In heavy than In light soils. The ciny and san remain about the same all the time. When soil has sufficient humus It is in a crumbly condition and will not "run together." A large amount of this constituency Imparts a dark color to tl 3 soil, hence a dark soil Is an indication of a good soil. Strawberry plants that have ever borne fruit should never be used to start a new bed. For a new bed young plants should be used that have grown the season previous. The plants that have borne fruit have black, wiry roots, while those that have not borne fruit have white roots. There Is no danger of being mixed up In the matter, as the roots tell the age of the plants to anyone who Is at all familiar with them. A farmer went to a bank recently to get his nte renewed and the banker asked him if his Implements were out In the weather. Upon being told they were, he was Informed to go home and bouse his farm machinery and then come in and renew his paper. If some

farmers knew their own business as well as some bankers do theirs, there

would be fewer Implements rusting out lu the elements. Quack grass Is one of the most perni cious weeds the farmer has to contend with. Cultivation encourages and spreads the roots. Constantly seeding and cropping fields in the ordinary way has a tendency to increase the area each year. Starving is the method to be pursued In killing this tenacious plant Keeping the tops down and dis turbing the roots but little will do the work. Small patches may be smothered by a covering of straw. Dense gi-owlng crops like buckwheat, millet and rape will often choke out this grass. The first farmers of a new country depend largely on virgin fertility to produce large crops. When they fall to obtain profitable crops with Indifferent farming they feel that the land has become worn out and they sell out and go further west. In nearly every country fertility has been Increased under the best methods of farming, until now many farms are yielding better crops than when they were first brought under cultivation. A Pennsylvania farmer wrote a friend in 1778 that he "raised on virgin soil a crop of wheat, yielding 17 bushels per acre." The same farm this year, 128 years later, produced 34 bushels of wheat to the acre. The thing that brought about this hundred-fold increase is "science," or common sense. Arid Land Farming In Utah. A most Interesting account of the development of and farming in Utah Is given In a recent bulletin of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station, and we are told that "on all the farms the yields . with some of the crops were such as to encourage the belief that the deserts in the sections where the farms are located will ultimately be reclaimed. ' The significance of this statement becomes apparent when It Is remembered that in Utah alone there are more than 72,000 square miles, or nearly 45,000,000 acres of this arid land which probably could never be reached by the present systems of Irrigation. For "arid land farming" Involves methods which do not count upon rainfall cr artificially obtained moisture. Spraying in Apple Orchard. From careful examination of orchards in New York, It appears that spraying Is valuable in proportion to. its frequency and thoroughness. From 381 acres of apple orchards that were not sprayed the yield was an average of 328 bushels per acre, of which only C7 per cent or 218 bushels was worth barreling. From another lot of 352 acres sprayed once only 340 bushels per acre were gathered and 74 pr cent were barreled. From 701 acres sprayed twice the average yield per acre was 374 bushels, and 78 ier cent was barreled; 247 acres were sprayed three times, and the average yield per acre for this area was 414 bushels. Of this 87 per cent was barreled. Note how the yield Increased regularly with the number of sprayings. Other examinations showed that fifty-four orchards unsprayed gave a cash return of $103 per acre ; thirty orchards sprayed once, gave $130 per acre; sixty-four orchards sprayed twice gave $143 per acre; twenty-five orchards sprayed three times gave $184 per acre; six orchards sprayed four times gave $211 an acre as the average Income. Such facts are convincing as to the value of frequent spraying. AI aline Soil Conditions. Lime can also do harm if used injudiciously. It may Induce the soil to give up plant foods by drawing top heavily upon the resources of the !and. The mechanical effect of lime, in changing the texture of the soil, is also an important result of its use. Lime gives excellent results when used in connection with green crops that are plowed under. It Is the manure, or crop, that provides the plaut food, and not the lime, but lime induces hasty action, and enables the materials added to the toil to assume the forms available for the plants. When the land is sour, and grown over with sorrel (which contains oxalic acid), lime Is said then to "sweeten the soli" by removing the sourness, but what it really does is. to assist in changing the acids of the soli into carbonate of lime and oxalate of lime, through chemical combinations, tho sour soil becoming alkaline because the lime has taken up the acids which existed before its presence. With the changes thus made follow others, but they may be rapid or slow, according to circumstances, sometimes the benefits of lime not being apparent until the second year, but on soils upon which lime has not been applied for years It never fails to give excellent results. In proportion to the benefits derived it costs but little, is plentiful and should be used extensively. Lime may be said to be the foundation of a clover crop, wood ashes also being excellent. Colic, Founder and Stag-jrers. A horse owner, writing to Southern Cultivator, gives the following remedies : I .send you a sure remedy for founder which I have never known to fall to effect a cure In a short time. Tike a large iron spoon heaping full of common salt ; put on the root of his tongue. You will see a change for the better la twenty-four hours. I have cured some very bad cases; next day repeat the doser If you give the remedy as toon as you discover thejiorse Is foundered you will not have to give the second dose. You can tell if foundered ly the horse being stiff and sore in als feet as though he had been driven bard. Don't say this is too simple, but try it Colic: Take four tablespoonfais of black powder and dissolve In a pint of water; drench the horse. I have never known It to fall. Another simple remedy for colic Is a good-sized dose of morphine; put it on his tongue, the same will cur a cow that has been poisoned from eating buckeyes. Blind staggers: Saturate & tovel with chloroform and apply It to the nostrils until the animal Is thoroughly under the Influence, then bleed fre.Iy In the neck; pour on top of the bead eight or ten buckets of cold water and give Immediately a half pound of epsom salts; after pouring the water wrap an old quilt around the hoai, to produce a reaction. Do this and sav your horse.

BUILDS QUEER STRUCTURE

Freak "Cathedral" Attraet the Gortons at Winnipeg. "Archbishop Seraphim" has been in trouble over his 'cathedral." He hns paid about $00 on a total amount of $5,000, says the Winnipeg, correspondents of the New York Herald. The archbishop feels that Winnipeg would be disgraced .f he and his congregation should be lft without a home. "This "Junk-shop cathedral" of the good bishop is one of Winnipeg's curriosities. From a far window in Stella street there dawns upon the astonished sight a structure which is an embodied Interrogation point. It Is an octagonal one story building of wood. the side put together as a board fence I and painted orange; the sloping roof is of tin and close inspection shows that it is gilded or painted in the simIlitude of the heavens, with a sprinkling of stars. The whole Is surmounted by a cupola of brass and old Iron, shakily constmcted while a still more crazy "tow- I er" leans like that of Tisa over a "chime" of four bells of different shapes and sizes. The pcinted windows with their wooden shutters market! by rude crosses make It evident that it Is a church of some kind. This Is the "cathedral" constructed by. "Archbishop Seraphim," a Russian who Is said to have been excommuni cated from the Greek orthodox church, but who has a small following in Win nipeg. One enters a little chamber which might hcid twenty-five persons, though It seems crowded with two. 'It Is car-1 peted after a fashiou, but It Is a scene of most woeful litter. Gaudy chronios and faded banners decorate the wall. Two immense candles are twined with artificial red poppies. In the center is a gilt pipe skeleton canopy, If one may call it such, with a brass dome over It. On a table beneath is a toy bank, a subscription book and a stone jug. These really constituted the raison d'etre of the building, for one was insinuatingly shown the book, a stubby pencil was handed one and a dirty forefinger pointed out Premier Itoblin's name. ' As I stood outside gazing once more at the queer little edifice, I said to a woman on the doorstep, "What is all that framework?" and I pointed to more bent iron in haphazard process of erection. "Seraphim says he's going to build a hotel or boarding house or something,' she said, contemptuously. "I suppose folks will stream down to see It as they do to see the church. I watched him build It, but I never thought It would amount to what It has. He earns bis living by showing it off. He ain't got much of a congregation." GETTING READY FOR WINTER. Thrifty Chlpmnnki--Heedle Squir rel Fat I)rer 'Possum. Long before autumn the chipmunks began their winter work. As early as August the hives were dug and storing began with the oats in August, and, says a writer In Country Life In Amer lea. I should like to know just the measure that went Into the garners of! a little chipmunk In one of my stone piles. Nearly half a bushel of chestnuts have been taken from a single den ; and the wav this ehinmums. piled in the nit o v,oif v.nctiot meacii n-nuifl nnt L.a.n u x j aia a va ouv 1 a hold them. Then came the pignuts, acorns and chestnuts. As long as the harvest 1ist ed they carried them In, and when the cold came and softly closed their doors the had no fears. Nor had J. They would need no more of my oats. Rut the gray squirrels had need", They made little preparation, and long before spring they came to me for corn. Three of them lived In the barn a large part of the winter. Chickaree, the red squirrel, makes believe to provide against the winter's need, but when winter comes he has either forgotten where his scattered hoards are or else has eaten them as fast as they were stored. So all win ter long he lives from hand to mouth, picking up whateter frozen apples and seeds ne finds. I have seen him cat bark and climb li wild, windy weather out to the froz en tips of the pine trees to eat off the terminal buds. Hut along in August, if you will bunt up a big yellow birch. you will find Chickaree there, snipping off and hiding the half ripe cones as if he expected a seven years' famine or the immediate approach of a second glacial period. The rabbit, fox. coon and 'possum are on foot all winter. They have neither storehouse nor barn, unless you would call the superabundance of autumnal fat In which the 'possum tolls himself a store for winter, for that It really Is. Distinctly It Is so with the woodchuck. He has a den, deep down In the ground, and here, were he not so sound a sleeper, he might lay by enough foor for winter. But perhaps not Were he awake ai:d housed It Mould take a small stack to feed him. Instead of all that trouble he sim ply eats, eats, eats, and lays on the fat, so that, as he falls Into his winter long sleep at the bottom of his burrow, he needs nothing more until next ground tog day. Our friend the skunk Is fnt, too, when he, together with all his kind that can crowd into the burrow, begins his somewhat fitful winter sleep. He comes forth lean and ragged In the spring, and If report are true he should come forth haggard as well, for while there In the burrow he has been dining upon his own bedfellows, the weaker mem bers having been devoured by the strong. - ' Ufa Ambition. Yellow-covered literature was not al lowed In the Benson family, bat Har old had friends who narrated to him some of the stirring tales they had read. 'What is your ambition, Harold?" asked an aunt who was visiting the Benson household, and was blessed with a long purse. "Perhaps you've not decided yet what you'd like to be or do by and by," she added. ' "Oh, yes, Aunt Ellen," said Harold, shaking bis head at such a suggestion, "I'm all decided.

One Sunday, long ago, In Scilly, service was in progress when there came the cry of "Wreck:" The men started from their seats. In a moment there would have been a stampede, but they cowered back as the minister sternly thundered a warning. He strode to the door. Again his voice arose. "Let's all start fair!" he shouted, throwing off impeding cassock as he ran, while his congregation labored at his heels. Most curious of all wrecks was that of a bark, with a cargo of beads, that went ashore 200 vears ago So generous has been Une ocean with this treasure that throughout these two centuries it has intermittently been tossing beads ashore, yet sd frugally that the supply is not yet exhausted, for in a few min utcs' search I found that some had been thrown there since the last search of the islanders.

Yesterday morning the King witnessed a trial of the new motor Yarrow torI podo boat, one of the most extraordinary vessels that have ever been placed I on the navy list. The idea of a boat drawing little water and capable of being navigated in shallow waters originated with the admiralty, who approved of the scheme to make those vessels propelled by in ternal combustion in preference to steam.

The new vessel carries two torpe does, weighs cignt tons ana measures sixty, feet in length and nine feet in breadth.

"My food was killing me and I didn't know the cause," writes a Colo, young lady: "For two years I was thin and sickly, suffering from indigestion and inflammatory rheumatism. "I had tried' different kinds of diet, plain living, and many of the remedies recommended, but got no better. 'Finally, about five years ago, mother suggested that 1 try Grape-Nuts, and I began at once, eatiug it with a little cream or milk. A change for the better began at once. "To-day I am well and am gaining weight and strength all the time. I've gained 10 pounds in the last five weeks and do not suffer any more from indigestion and the rheumatism is all gone. "I know It is to Qrape-Xuts alone I that I owe uiy restored health. I still eat the food twice a day and never tire 0f it." Name siven by Postum Co., Dattle Creek, Mich. The flavor of Grape-Nuts Is peculiar to Itself. It is neutral, not too sweet and has an agreeable, healthful quality that never grows tiresome. One of the sources of rheumatism is from overloading the system with acid material, the result of Imperfect digestion and assimilation. As soon ar improper food is abandoned and Grape-Nuts Is taken regularly, digestion is made strong, the organs do their work of building up good red blood cells and of carrying away the excess of disease-making material from the system.

What isPerunä? Is it a Catarrh Remedy, or a Tonic, or is it Both? Some people call Peruna a great tonic. Others refer to Peruna as a geat catarrh remedy. Which of these people are right? Is it more proper to call Peruna a catarrh remedy than to call it a tonic? Our reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can be no effectual catarrh remedy that is not also a tonic In order to thoroughly relieve any case of catarrh, a remedy must net only have a specific action on the mucous membranes affected by the catarrh, but it must have a general tonic action on the nervous system. Catarrh, even in persons who are otherwise strong, is a weakened condition of some mucous membrane. There must be something to strengthen the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and raise the vital forces. Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the world has attracted so much at

tention, from medical writers as HYDRASTIS CAWADEKSIS. The wonderful efficacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold upon the medical profession. When joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA a trio of medical agents is formed in Peruna which constitutes a specific remedy for catarrh that in the present stato of medical progress cannot be improved upon. This action reinforced by such renowned tonics as COLLINSONIA CANADENSIS, CORYDALIS .FORMOSA and CEDRON SEED, ought to make this compound an ideal remedy for catarrh in all its stages and locations in the body. From a theoretical standpoint, therefore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The use of Peruna, confirms this opinion. Numberless testimonials from every quarter of the earth furnish ample evidence that this judgment is not over enthusiastic. When practical experience confirms a well-grounded theory the result is a truth that cannot be shaken.
