RUPTURE.

Nott Rupture Cure. We are making the cure of Rupture a specialty. We guarantee a cure in all cases when a truss will hold in place and when there is vitality enough to produce healthy adhesions. We treat all kinds of Rupture in both sexes, and at ages from three months to seventy-five years of age. We do not use a knife nor draw a drop of blood. Our treatment is mud and does uot stop the patient from light work. We treat patients on strictly business principles, but while this is true, we ate not so hardened as to turn away those who can convince us of their honesty and willingn ss to pay for a cure at some time. To such we are prepared to offer satisfactory terms- The price depends upon the case, and as few cases are just alike, an examination is necessary before naming the price. It usually takes about four weeks to cure an ordinary case, sometimes longer, depending upon the size of the break and the condition of the system. You cannot afford to have to wear a truss all your life and run the risk of having a strangulated hernia, with mortification and death always liable to occur. If you are ruptured yc>a know it and you will know just as well when Sou are cured. If you desire to a cured, call and see our physician. It will cost you nothing to find out all the particulars and if you want to be treated you have no risk to run as we ask no pay until you are cured. Our physician will want to see you only

once each week. We have engaged Dr. I. B. Washburn. Rensselaer, Indiana, to treat our patients. Call upon him at his office on Monday or Saturday of each week.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

—The largest individual employer is the Krupp company, employed in tin inanufacture of artillery and iron mahas on its payroll about 19,000 laborer*. —One of the most remarkable inks I'now to the chemist is made of a preparation of prussian blue in combination with nitric and hydrochloric acid. The writing done with this ink has the singular property of fading when exposed to the light and recovering it* color when taken into the shade or placed m perfect darkness. —Salmon packers on the I’ncifio i»aigtnre4'Tinrfffe”dlitt!Erbed itver news brought there last week from Petropaulovski that the Russians are arrangIng for the establishment of several large salmon and herring canneries along the Siberian coast. When the trans-Siberian railway is completed the product of these canneries is likely to be a considerable factor in European markets. \ —Large tracts of sand wastes are now being reclaimed along the Welsh' coast. Series of parallel fences are put up seaward, closely interwoven with wires and furze, and spaces between these are filled with earth and roadscrapings. In these various trees, such as sycamore, willow, pine and alder, are planted, while the ridges are sown with gorse and broom seed and planted with brier. —Mr. Wilckens, of Vienna, has found that two pure-blooded English horses transmitted the color of their coat to their progeniture in 586 cases out of 1,000. When the parents are of different colors, the offspring are almost always of the color of the mother. With Arabian horses the facts are more striking still. The white color of the coat of the mare was found to be clearly transmitted in 729 cases out of 1,000. In other cases there was a more or less marked mixture. —The soldiers and workers of the white ants (Termes), are, as a rule blind, with no traces of eyes; but a species has been found in South Africa, the workers and soldiers of which have eyes and work in daylight, like ordinary ante- In their habits they resemble harvesting anta, in cutting grass and carrying it into holes in the ground. Dr. Sharp thinks this species may be allied to the Termes viarum of Smeathman, whose soldiers and workers possess eyes. —Experiments have shown thatbifds avoid the bright-colored Caterpillars a* a rule. And this seems almost to have become a second nature, for a jackdajr, which had been raised in captivity and had had no experience in judging th® edible qualities of caterpillars, was qb»served to regard the brilliant cater* pillar of the figure-of-eight moth with suspicion and aversion, although it eagerly devoured dull, plain caterpillars placed within ita reach. When it was driven by hunger to attack other it finally refused to eat it, giving plain evidence that there was sonfethlng distasteful about the prey.

VIRGINIA’S LUCKY STONES.

Carlons Crystals Which Tradition Says Came from the Tears of Fairies. The queer cross-shaped crystals of silicate that are known to the inhabitants of Virginia as fairy stones have long puzzled the most noted geologists of the, world. Just why silicate should crystllize is the first problem that confronts them, and the second is why the crystallization should always assume the form of a cross. It is only in one part of Virginia that these stones are found. Patrick county is the favored locality, but almost every Virginian has sent to some friend or neighbor for a specimen, for they are supposed to be a lucky stone. Indeed, no self-respecting citizen of the Old Dominion will be found with a rabbit’s foot in his possession nowadays, and he must have a fairy stone for a mascot. The legend which gives these little crystals such a reputation for luck is not only old, but is quaintly beautiful. When the crucifixion took place the fairies of that particular section of Virginia were overwhelmed with grief, and their tears in falling crystallized into tiny crosses. For many years the fairy stones have been the particular mascots of Patrick county citizens, and it was Ohly by accident that the fame of the emblems has spread. A few months ago a certain Col. Prdpper went into the mountains of that county on a prospecting tour, and while there put up at a farmhouse. lie noticed that all the people about the place were wearing irregular cross-shaped crystals, and on asking found out the significance of the custom. He secured one, and within a few days struck a bonanza. Shortly after the gallant colonel appeared in Washington, his studs, cuffbuttons and scarfpins all made of fairy stones. Congressmen and even grave senators badgered him for a mascot, but only a favored few secured the coveted lucky stones. The fairy stones are scarce, and are found after diligent search in the beds of the streams, along the dried-Up channels of brooks and rivulets.—-Ji. Y. World.

Dosed by Proxy.

An English missionary to Uganda, Rev. R. P. Ashe, thus relates one of his odd experiences- in prescribing for the natives: “A man came to me begging for medicine. He seemed not to l»e seriously unwell, and I thought beet to give him a dose of salts, which at ths worst would probably do hitn no harm. I prepared the mixture, and seeing him hesitate about taking it I felt obliged to order him to do so at once while it was effervescing. He drained the cup and then I told the interpreter that the patient might describe his symptoms more at length, it he desired. Then it came out that he wanted the medicine not for himself, but for his wife. No doubt the man supposed that this was ths white man's usual method of treatment-" —Youth's Companion.
