DeTeloped by Cultivation.
All garden vegetables are' merely
types ' improved by lone cultivation of
wild species. The wild cabbage is
common enough ia places ly the sea,
but is of no use for food in its wild
state. Indeed, jt will take n botanist
to tell that it was a cabbage at all.'
Scotland owes the cabbage to Crom
well's soldiers. The cauliflower is bu
a cultivated improvement on the cab
bage. It was brought to perfection
in j
Cyprus and was very little known nu-
til about a century ago. The parsnip
is another uativo of this country. You
may find it along almost any hedge -
row, but it is small and
ter iu its wild state.

A catalog of the national obrv. i
tory at Athens shows that 8.187 earth- j
ouakes were fplt. in r.r.. i tu I
1893-1898, and of these 2.018 were re- I
corded in Zante alone. Tlie shoeks
were more numerous in April ana May
than in other mouths.
In selecting seed com in the field
the vigor and growth of the stalks
ahold be observed as well as the ears.
If a stalk produces two or three good
ears mark it. Bv usiut! seed
from tbu
most prolilic stalks the teudeney wiH
be to produce more ears every year,
uutil as many as four and five ears per
stalk will be the result.
Ked cedar is a desirable tree, but the
seed seems to fail in germination. The
fact is that it requires two seasons in
which to ! row. seeds sown at uy
lime will not grow for about 12
months. Sow them in a bed and leave
it undisturbed, except to occasionally
water it, for a season.
The burdock is a weed that is exter
minated with dijiicnlty, as the plant
produces a great many seeds and they
remain in the soil for years, ready to
grow as soon as conditions are favor
able. If the plant is cut off below tlie
ground and a handful of salt thrown
on the root the plant will soon die, as
the root is soft and the salt rots it.

Rheumatic pains are the cries of protest
and distress from tortured muscles, aching
joints and excited nerves. The blood has
been poisoned by the accumulation of
waste matter in the system, and can no
longer supply the pure 'and health sustain
ing food they require. The whole 6ystem
feels the effect of this acid poison; and
not until the blood has been purified and
brought back to a healthy condition wiil
the aches and pains cease.
Mrs. James Kc 1, of 707 Ninth street, N. It,
Wanhinglon, D. C, write as follow: "A few
months ago I had an Rtlack of bciatic B-beuiii

to continue his prescrip

After hiTinRt filled

! Six suicides and hundreds of broken

i slaughter in the Kiowa and Comanche
Indian reservation. The order of the
United States government compelling

Indian agents were lenient, not desir

subject. The old men and t,he young

Indian law
Hecently the agent for the Kiowas
md Conianches sent out word tliat they
mist separate for good or forfeit their
rights to share iu the tribe's laud and
!aiouey, sooifto be distributed pro rata.
j The old men did not like to lose their
right of land and money, and, .much
gainst their will, they were forced to
jtt) to the agency at Darlington and
nake a choice of their wives. In nearly
ivery case the old squaws were chosen.
In the case of Tall Heaver, he chose
Uie youngest of his squaws, and the
it her six killed themselves because they
vere not the lucky ones.
Tall Beaver is very glad that he got
Id of his squaws, he said, because they
score no good to work, hm he was fast
osing his fortune in consequence there
)f. He said he Iid not care if his de
verlcd wives did kill Ihemselvcs, as it
va.s not his fault. .Some of the older
nen were angry at the agent because
:hey had to give up their wives, and
:hi'eaten to sue the l.'nited states for
he damage done.
It used to be among the Kiowas and
Conianches that the more wives one
j possessed the better standing he had In
! mnal ranks. Hut lately the young men
laveonly taken more than one wife be-
1 :ause It was the style to do so. They
et-f glad to get rid of their many
iquaws, but the oid men held back
md kept the younger clement on their
title.
The legal castiug awny of wives took
?lace on the open prairie near the agen
y. The agent. laj. Mlschner. tall and
lignitled. sat on his pony In the midst
f the terrified redskins. He had a list
f names of the members of the tribes
rom each district, nnd called them out
n alphabetical order. Some of the
iquaws grew frantic when they learned
:hey had been abandoned. Some of the
Aoinen took It more kindly and went
the agent, where they were given
aoi . and some of them have been for
:unate enough to marry again. It is
.'stlmated that -KKI women will be de
icrted before tho last trace of polygamy
s jlotted out in these two tribes.

"What's the matter?" Inquired a 1

"I'm doing this to please Henrietta."

to a confidential tone. "If you get an i

Certain Democratic and semi-Demo-era
tic papers are much troubled by an
alleged lack of an allirmative Republi
can policy in the Philippines. It is true
that the Republican party now oocou
pies pretty much the position Lincoln
held at the time of his death iu re
spect to reconstruction, namely: that
it is not absolutely and irretrievaoly
committed to any policy. It is to a
considerable extent" feeling its way,
and the policy in the Philippines will
be not to deal with some events and
problems uutil they arise. At the
same time the administration has an
nounced and declared a general policy
of a clear and comprehensive character.

proclamation to tiie people of the isl

(2.) The fullest self-government to

a just, stable, effective and economical
administration and with the sovereign
authority of tho United States.
(3.) Tho civil and religious rights
of the l'ilipinos to bo assured with the
equal standing of all before the law.
(4.) An honest civil , service with

of the people.
(5.) Honest collection and disburse
ment of taxes. Local funds not to be
used for other than local purposes.
(fi ) A pure, speedy and effective
administration of justice in tlie courts
with protection for the rights of all,
(t.) The promotion of railioads and
oilier means of communication aud

(8.) Domestic and foreign trade
and commerce and the promotion of

Pledged to these purposes the Unit

less than five per cent of the popula

no way of having expurgated or ecu

Aul if anti-expansion is paramount, to

wonder what their own place can now

being a policy they themselves view
with paramount favor. In this aire
of easy communication between locali

GERMANS STANDING FIRM.
Tliey Supported Lincoln One as Tlivy
support Mclvinley Nuw.
.Mr. Jlryau has opeuel a random
box in tpiotiug so profusely from Lin
coln. .Not only was Lincoln arraigned
by tho Democrats in 1804 as acting
the part of an emperor and "sitting eu
tnroned in the White House,'' but ho
was denonucen specifically as McKin
ley is now for violating tlie Declara
tion of Independence and governing
without tiie consent of the governed;
and as if to make tlie parallel absolute
ly complete, there was also a deter
mined moveiueet iu 1804 to turn the
(.iermau Hepublicaus against Lincoln.
Lincoln, of course, could only expect
the denunciation of the copperheads
who thought the consent of the gov
erned doctrine forbade the suppression
of the rebellion. The unkiudest cut of
all was that ltepublieaus should go off
into opposition against him, but there
were Boutwells iu that day. They
held a "liberty convention" and nomi
nated Fremont, because forsooth, Lin
coln was not t good enough Kepub
lican for them. This was bad enough,
but there are always some cranks, ex
tremists and malcontents. The worst
defection threatened the one most
trying to Linclon aud his supporters
was one projected in the name of the
German Republicans.
1 As late in the campaign as Septem
ber 21, Horace (iroely taid in the New
York Tribune:
"Until a short time ago it seemed a
though nearly the entire vote controlled
by the German National clubs would ,
be lost to the Itepublicau party."
liut the keen sighted Greely now saw
how the Germans had been misrepre
sented, lie now made bold to predict
that Lincoln would get an overwhelm
ingly majority of German voters aud a
few weeks later iu November, that
prophesy was made good. The men
who predicted a great (iermau defec
tion from Lincoln had reckoned with
out their host. The Germans instead
of being carried tiff on a tangmt hid
coolly aud calmly reviewed the situa
tion. They saw the folly and fraud iu
the cry of imperialism .against Lincoln
anil tho preposteious dogmas about the
consent of the governed and the Declar
ation of Independence. They dis-"
missed tho utter folly, tho charge of
Lincoln "sitting enthroned at the
White Mouse" and setting himself up
bh an emperor. They rallied to Lin
coln's support iu November, aud in
deed it is to be said that without the
help they gave, Lincoln could not have
been re-elected. He had no truer or
firmer. friends than the Germans at
home and the boys who "fought mit
Sigel" iu the field, and sent their
Lincoln ballots homo to.be counted.
Morgan')) Stiul(jlit Tula.
Senator .John T. Morgan, of Ala
bama, though a leading member of tho
party which is trying to prove that Re
publican policies are "imperialistic,"
is not afraid to give the McKiuley ad
ministration policies credit for being
the opposite of "imperialisito."
An interviewer for a Southern paper
asked him:
"Do you approve of Secretary Hay's
policy iu negotiating with the CUi
uesE?" "Thoroughly," came the emphatic
reply. ".Mr. May has been wise and
statesmanlike, and his course has been
beyond criticism. He has reflected
credit in a remarkable manner tin tliis
government abroad and has excelled
the achievements of tlie foreign chan
telloiies."
