two winters by
The son says: " My father
and mother owe their present
strength and good health to'
Vinol. During the last two
trying winters neither of them had a cold, and were
able ' to walk- farther- and" do more than for years."
I think Vinol is perfectly wonderful. It certainly is
the greatest blood-making, strengthening tonic for old
people I ever heard of."
We want every feeble old person In this town to try
Vinol. We will return their money without question U It
does not accomplish all we claim lor it.

It is a bright idea to mix your own fertilizer at
home, and save all factory profit and save the cost. of
the fertilizer tag.
' Why are there any fertilizer factories, anyhow?
Looks like every good . farmer should run his own fac
tory. But then he can't do it to the best advantage.
He is obliged to leave most of the work of weighing and
mixing the ingredients to farm laborers, and they are
not trained to such work. It is impossible to perfectly
mix fertilizers by hand. If all the ingredients are not
perfectly blended, one plant will get all the phosphate
and another all the potash, and still another all the
ammonia; and none of them will be properly nourished,
But how about the cost of that tag? The tag is
the state government's guarantee that the fertilizing el
ements are there in certain proportions, and properly
mixed. The tag is one of the best parts of the fertilizer.
Keeps You From Cheatinq Your Land.
If you mix your own ingredients, any old way
will do.
You have to giwe your poor old , patient farm a
square deal if you by the brands of

Mate-Szilka,Hungary,March 28.
The village of Oekoerito and the ad
jacent districts have been thrown into
mourning by a terrible disaster which
occurred at the: former place last
night and which resulted in the death
of between 300 and 400 persons and
the serious iDjury of 100 more.
T A public ball Was announced to be
held at the hotel of the village, where
the coach house had been fitted up as
a ball room. It was a great barn
like structure, decorated with tinder
dry pine branches left from a previ
ous entertainment to which were
added other decorations and Chinese
lanterns. ; The testfvity attracted
pleasure seekers from the whole sur
rounding country, and the building
was so packed just before the ball
commenced that the single door
which afforded entrance and exit was
nailed up to prevent the admittance
of Bcore who clamored outside.
. PIKE BRANCH CATCHES FIRE.
While the dancing was in full
swing a pine branch caught fire and
fell to the floor, it blazed furiously
and almost instantly the dresses of
several of the women burst into
flames, which spread with astonish
ing rapidity. A dreadful panic en
sued, the revelers losing their beads
completely. Many of them, with
flames shooting out of their garments,-
rushed towards the barred
door, where a surging mass was jam
med together. Women and men fell
and were trampled under foot. ThoBe
in front vainly endeavored to tear
j open the door but were crushed help
lessly by the pressure of the crowd
behind. The roaring and crackling
of the flames mingled with the de
spairing shrieks of the doomed
throng. ; i
A PEW CASES.
When the door was finally broken
open, some lew persons eBcapea, dui
most of these collapsed before they
got far. "Inside the building were
heaps of charred corpses, and heart
rending screams and groans were
still audible irom the smoking piles.
A detachment of troops was imme
diately ordered to the scene to clear
the wreckage and hely bury the
dead.
The official estimate as given to
night states that 290 persons perish-
i ed. but it is believed that the total
death-roll will prove much larger
than this, as many persons haven't
been accounted for.

would clasp her hands and roll up her

reading an article in the Saturday
Evening Post on migratory birds' he
wrote to that paper for information.
His question .was referred to Mr. it.
Dean, president of the Audubon So
ciety of Illinois, and Capt Howie re
ceived a letter from that gentleman.
Mr. Dean says that the snow bird
passes north early in tbe spring and
breeds tin northern Minnesota, Wis
consin and Canada, and early last
summer it was found breeding in the
southern peninsula of Michigan.
In his "Stories of Bird Life," Prof.
T. Gilbert Pearson, president of the
North Carolina - Audubon Society,
says:
"The Junce (snow bird) is found
over .North America east or the
Rocky Mountains - In the southern
part of its range it comes only as a
winter visitor. In the mountains of
Virginia and North Carolina it is a
resident the entire year. And so
when the warmth of Bummer comes
the enow birds of all the Southland
retire to the North, except those
which go up Into the higher moun
tains to nest."

Sir Robert Ball, the astronomer, In
an address on Hailey's comet deliv
ered at Cambridge University last
week, again referred to the needless
fear with which the approach of the
comet was viewed by a rood many
people.
There was no cause for anxiety at
all, he said. There was just as much
chance of a collision between the nu
cleous of the comet and the arth as
there was of the Empire State Ex
press from New York to Chicago
running down the night mall from
London to Edinburgh.
Those who were alive in 1861 spent
a couple of hours In the tall of tbe
comet, and none were any tbe worse
for it The greatest inconvenience
he had heard of was caused to a cler
gyman who, although It was a mid
summer evening, was compelled by
ue curious haze that Drevailed tn
ight candies In his church in order
that be might preach.
me comet might be truly called
the spectre of the skies, for the great
est part of Its bulk was of the intan
gible and transparent material that
one associated with ghosts. The eom-
et appeared at the critical moment of
the battle of Hastings, and but for Its
advent and the disheartening effect
that It had on the English troops the
Norman conquest might never have
been achieved.
The earth would pass through tbe
tall of the comet about May 18, and
afterward the comet would appear as
a new evenrng star.
