HER DESTINATION IN DOUBT.
Little Girl’s Remark Not Complimen
tary to Grandma.
Ethel is of the mature age of five.
Recently her grandmother concluded
•that It devolved on her to instruct the
child in religious matters.
"You must be a good girl, Ethel,”
•he said. “Then you will go to heaven
•when you die."
Ethel seemed scarcely pleased with
this reward for exceptional conduct.
“Don’t you want to go to heaven?"
asked grandma, with a look of re
proach.
“Oh, I don’t know,” temporized
Ethel. "I guess not.”
“Why not?” demanded grandma,
severely.
"Because maybe I couldn’t get out,”
answered Ethel.
"You wouldn’t want to get out,” re
plied grandma.
"Oh, yes, I should,” returned Ethel,
with conviction.
“No,” argued grandma, “you would
not. Why should you want to get out
of heaven?”
"Why,” answered Ethel, “I guess I'd
want to go and see you once in a
while, wouldn’t I?”—Woman's Home

NVALID’S SAD PLIGHT.
After Inflammatory Rheumatism, Hair
Came Out, Skin Peeled, and Bed
Sores Developed—Only Cuti
cura Proved Successful.
“About four years ago I had a very
severe attack of inflammatory rheuma
tism. My skin peeled, and the high
fever played havoc with my hair,
which came out in bunches. I also
had three large bed sores on my back.
I did not gain very rapidly, and my
appetite was very poor. I tried many
'sure cures’ but they were of little
lielp, and until I tried Cuticura Re
solvent I had had no real relief. Then
my complexion cleared and soon I felt
better. The bed sores went very soon
after a few applications of Cuticura
Ointment, and when I used Cuti
•cura Soap and Ointment for my hair
it began to regain its former glossy ap
pearance. Mrs. Lavina J. Henderson,

HOT ONIONS FOR PNEUMONIA,
Dread Disease Robbed of Its Terrors
by Simple Remedy.
Owing to the prevalence of pneu
monia and the great mortality which
attends its ravages during the winter
and spring, several boards of health
in northern New Jersey have been tak
ing measures to protect the citizens of
their towns from the disease. The
health board of Washington. N. J., has
published a remedy which is said to
be a sure cure for pneumonia, and
cither health boards are looking into
the matter with a view of having the
same thing published for the good of
the general public. This is the pub
lication as it has appeared in the pa
pers of Washington:
“Take six or ten onions, according
to size, and chop fine, put in a large
spider over a hot fire, then add the
same quantity of rye meal and vine
gar enough to form a thick paste. In
the meanwhile stir it thoroughly, let
ting it simmer five or ten minutes.
Then put in a cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to chest
as hot as patient can bear. In about
ten minutes apply another, and thus
continue by reheating the poultices,
and in a few hours the patient will be
out of danger. This simple remedy
has never failed to cure this too-often
fatal malady. Usually three or four
applications will be sufficient, but con
tinue always until the perspiration
starts freely from the chest. This rem
edy was formulated many years ago
by one of the best physicians New
England has ever known, who never
lost a patient by the disease, and won
2u» renown by simple remedies.”
“TWO TOPERS.”
A Teacher’s Experience.
“My friends call me ‘The Postum
Preacher,’ ” writes a Minn, school teach
er, “because I preach the gospel of
Postum everywhere I go, and have
been the means of liberating many
'coffee-pot slaves.’
“I don't care what they call me so
long as I can help others to see what
they lose by sticking to coffee, and
can show them the way to steady
nerves, clear brain and general good
health by using Postum.
“While a school girl I drank coffee
and had fits of trembling and went
through a siege of nervous prostration,
which took me three years to rally
from.
"Mother coaxed me to use Postum,
but I thought coffee would give me
strength. So things went, and when
1 married I found my husband and I
were both coffee topers, and I can
sympathize with a drunkard who tries
to leave off his cups.
“At last in sheer desperation I
bought a package of Po3tum, followed
directions about boiling it, served it
with good cream, and asked my hus
band how^he liked the coffee.
“We each drank three cups apiece,
and what a satisfied feeling it left. Our
conversion has lasted several year*
and will continue as long as we live,
for it has made us new—nerves are
steady, appetites good, sleep sound
and refreshing.”

Has Done More Than Any Other One
Man to Place American Agricul
ture on Scientific Basis—Fa
ther of Pure Food Laws.
Washington.—No branch of appli«t>4
science ha's made greater progress
during the last 25 years than agricul
tural chemistry and Dr. Harvey W.
Wiley, present chief of the bureau of
Chemistry in the department of agri
culture unquestionably has accom
plished more than any other living
man in the work of placing American
agriculture on a more scientific basis,
thereby adding enormously to the pro
ductiveness and wealth of the country.
Scientific agriculture, or as it may
otherwise be termed, agricultural
chemistry, is a science of comparative
ly recent origin, and the Indiana man
has been the leading spirit in it for
nearly a generation.
Prof. Wiley’s interest in scientific
agriculture began with his connection
with Purdue university as professor of
chemistry, in 1874, a year after his
graduation at Harvard, when he was
also appointed state chemist of In
diana. He remained at Purdue nine
years.
Dr. Wiley’s connection with the gov
ernment work began in 1883 when he
was offered the position of chief of
the bureau of chemistry of the depart
ment of agriculture. The offer was ac
cepted, and from that time the devel
opment of that bureau and its activi
ties became Dr. Wiley’s life-work. To
day he is recognized as one of the
world's great chemists, with a mem
bership in many foreign and American
scientific societies.
Arriving in Washington to take up
the duties of his new post, Dr. Wiley
found his quarters confined to a lab
oratory in the basement of the anti
quated agricultural department build
ing and a little office upstairs. His
full working force consisted of four
assistant chemists and a dishwasher.
The first year's appropriation for the
work of the bureau was $15,000. Dur
Dr. Harvey W. Wiley.
ing the fiscal year which will end on
June 30 of this year. Dr. Wiley finds
himself in charge of a corps of 350
persons, 200 of ihem chemists, and the
budget of the bureau will total
$800,000.
To-day the government also main
tains 00 experiment stations which are
now in operation in every state and
territory, including Alaska, Hawaii,
Porto Rico and the Philippines.
Mere growth in expenditures would
not necessarily argue increase of use
fulness, but in the case of the depart
ment of agriculture its benefits to the
farming interests and to the country
at large have been immeasurably en
hanced during the last 25 years. To
these increased benefits the bureau of
chemistry, of which Dr. Wiley is chief,
has made large contributions. By the
analysis of soils and the investigation
of the effect of environment on the
chemical composition of plant's the
bureau of chemistry was able to define
the limits of sugar beet growing terri
tory in the United States and open the
way for the establishment of the beet
sugar industry, which promises great
results in the near future.
In 1880 there were only four beet
sugar factories ill the United States,
with an invested capital of $.'165,000
and an annual product valued at
$282,572. In 1905 the factories num
bered 51, the capital invested was $55,
922.459, and the value of products was
$24,393,794. From 1900 to 1905 the
number of beet sugar factories in
creased 70 per cent.; the capital in
vested in the business increased 177
per cent., and the value of the yearly
output increased 233 per cent.
Another service of inestimable value
rendered to the country by the na
tional bureau of chemistry is in start
ing and promoting the pure food and
drug movement. If Dr. Wiley is not
the father of that movement, he has
been the head and front of it from the
beginning. When he ‘regan work on
that line, upward of 20 years ago, not
a state in the union had a pure food
law; now most of them have laws on
the subject and commissions to en
force them. Dr. Wiley was the pioneer
of the movement in America and he
made chemistry a most effective in
strument in promoting it. It was
mainly through his efforts that the
analysis of foods, drugs, spices, edibles
and beverages showed adulteration to
be an almost universal practice, and
started a movement that has resulted
in widespread reform. He is the father
of the national pure food law which
took effect January 1, 1907, and chair
man of the national commission for
construing and enforcing it.
