New Use for Faraffltte Wax.
A new and 'important use for Refined
Paraffins Wax seems to have been dis
covered by a prominent resident of Ohio,
livini? neur Lancister. who had trees
badly damaged by storm, one being a
mante and the other an apple. In each
case a larae limb was broken down from
the trunk, but still attached to it. The
limbs were propped up and fastened se
etirelv with strans. very much as (
broken leg might be fastened with
BDlints. and then melted refined wax
noured into and over all the cracks
The "sureical operation" was entirely
successful. The ParafEne prevented the
escaDe of the sap. kept out the rain and
moisture which would have rotted the
trees, prevented the depredations of in
sects, and the limbs seem thus far to be
perfectly re-attached to the trees.

purchased anything from the proverbial

Larson says : "I am favored with the
custom of farmers within a radius of
thirty miles, to many of whom I have
supplied Chamberlain's remedies. All
testify to their value in a household
where a doctor's advice Is almost out o(
the question. Within one mile of my

Of these, within the past twelve montln,
no less than fourteen have been absolute
