Causes Every Form of Birthmark and Mole to Disappear. In view of the announcement of th.• establishment of a radium institute under the patronage of the King. and in view, furthermore, of the remark- able work being done in the London hospital in the treatment of diseased human tissues with radium, great interest attaches to the lecture re- cently delivered at the clinical theatre of that institution by Sir Frederick Sir 'heves'. rederick began by uttering e word of warning to those disposed to take too sanguine a view of the pos- sibilities of radium in therapeutics and reminded the scientists and surgeone present that some optim- ists expected a total revolution of surgery by the use of X-rays and a high frequency current of Finsen light. "These have done marvelous werk," he said, "but have not fulfilled at1 the confident expectntirtns." The le•turer then told the story of cases of various malndieb treated and deeIared,'amonr ether things. that it now is esteIli•lied that radiums•can cure every form o1 birthmark or mole and said he would like to ask any sttrgenn pWtsent whether he knew of any outer remedy that would do this.

It Is lmportaut to the farmer that bis enclosure should be well equipped with sutaetautial bars. There are farm - ere who go to as much trouble lu a year's time In moving a poor gate or ban back and forth, as they drive in and out of fields and In chasing cattle about, as making dozens of such bars u are described in Oda article. For pole bars, as seen in the [fret cut, we rota pine. round pules about two and one-half or three Inches In diameter. Cut four puttee the same length to nee for the upright bar poste or standards. Iu these bore four or more holes apiece an equal dlwenee apart. Cooaect thew - standard poet boles In pain with five or six inch lengths of small round poles just the right size to fit tightly into tbe bored boles. If necessary shave off the ends a bit pointed to Its to drive then) into place firmly. As an additional security nail each one in place. Little blocks of wood can be nailed between the upright poles In- stead of the five inch lengths of pole. In either case these little bars or blocks bold up the bar poles. Set the two counected upright standards in position and put your bar poles in place and you have a good. tidy set of bars. A farmer who liaa several fields opening on the highways has each bar - way fitted up with bare file those here mentioned.

Set two good sized porta one on eltbern side of the barway and to each one, an equal distance apart, nail large boraeshues, allowing the round part to stand out far enough from posts leo admit the bar poles eaatly. Facts For the Farm Home. Ohio has it law compelling nursery- men, or those engaged 1n growing trees, vines or ahruba, to the applica- tion with the state agricultural de- partment before July 1 of each year for the inspection of such stock. Dis- posing of utlnspected stock renders the owner subject to fine. Most farmers who have tried 1t are becoming to believe that the increased vaine of food by cooking is not worth tbe trouble. The Minnesota experiment station has originated a new variety of winter rye, called Minnesota No. 2. Tbts rye was obtained by seiectioo from the Swedish rye and is no exceptionally high yielder. The average yield upon the station grounds for the last eight years is 40.4 bushels per acre. One field of 1.9 acres yielded forty-eight boshela per acre last fall. It 1s estimated that 2,506,697,000 bushels of corn were raised in the United States In 1908, valued et 81,518,- 424,000.

Jam of Witch Doctors. The sufferings of savage races, who know less than nothing about medi- cine and surgery, ure almost incred- ible; and their torture is increased atill further by the diabolical tricks of the witch doctors, devil dancers, end other native "practitioners." It is estimated that there are not more than 350 to 400 white doctors among a thousand millions of savages. In Africa sickness and disease are supposed to be due to witchcraft, and the moment a man or it woman falls ill. a witch doctor, strangely clad and savagely masked, is called in to find out who has cast a spell upon the sick person. Forthwith. aided by his disciples, the "doctor" dances solemn- ly down the brambly street of wattle and daub hate to the sound of tom- toms and brawl gongs. An innocent victim is decided upon as the culprit who has wrought the evil by magic op the sick mate, and he at once is condemned by the witch doctor and relatives alike, nothing but his death, and that in the most dreadful manner being considered an efficacious remedy Sometimes the doctor proves hie "diagnosis' by commanding the victim to dip his hands into a great pot of boiling Wat- er. If they Dome out unharmed, he is innocent; so, manifestly, the pool creature has not much chance of get- ting 04. In some cases the victim Of this native doctor is tied to a stake and devoured alive by ferocious ants; or the physician may. ask the scape- goat to drink a teat draft of deadly poison. and when the unfortunate ereat.etre is laid oat -dead, the witch doctor points out the infallibility of his researches, and pockets his ice. Perhaps it is incorrect to say ."pocket& his fee." because he has no pockets at all. and exceedingly little - in the way of garments of any kind on him, and then his tee might eon - mist of a whole ox or a few coils of solid brass wire.

The German Emperor is threatened with bankruptcy. Things have reach- ed such a para that he has offered to sell the matte and estate of Erd- mannedorf, in Silesia, for 8450,000. Emir other imperial castle,' are also to be put on the market. One of the Emperor's weakneasee is, to be the owner of a large numberof p:elaces, and in this direction he probably holds the record. He owns at least 50 of varying size and splendor. The other day the Shah of Persia was pawning his jewel:. and just a lithe earlier Abdul .1,1r. ex.Bultan of Morocco, was tr..uue'dlt trying to pawn his jewels in Paris.
