Chas. Drake, a mail carrier at Chapin -

trying sovoral cures the storekeeper here
recommend this remedy and it eompletoly
cured me." There is no use of anyone
suffering from that painful ailment when
this liniment can bo obtained for a small

several doses that day, kept right on talk-
ing through the campaign, and I thank
this medicine that I won my seat in the
Council." This remedy is for sato by J.3.

FORECASTS FOR 11IARCH.
By The Rev. Irl, R. Hicks.
A regular stores period is at its
center on March the lst, having its
preliminary stages in western parts
the last two days of February. This
period is near the center of the
Venus disturbance, with Moon in
apogee and at first quarter. The
first three to four days of March
will bring low barometer, higher
temperature, and wide areas of
cloudiness, rain and snow, all of
which will pass rapidly from west
to east across the country. Rising
barometer end cold westerly gales
will bring, up the rear of these
storms, giving cold,. bleak weather
to most parts from about the 3rd
to the 5th.
Reactionary storms and storm
conditions will be central on the
6th, 7th and Sth, alrnostfilling the
days between the first and third
storm periods with unsettled,
threatening and stormy weather.
The combined Earth and Venus
forces are liable to .-.cause storms
and storminess any tinge in this
part of the month. ..a,.:
The regular storm pexind cover-
ing the 10th to the 14th., central on
the 12th, in every probability will
Provo one of the most tempestuous
and violent storm periods of the
month. The Moon is full on the
10th, ell the equator on the 12th,
and in perigee on the 13th. This is
also at the enact time, annually,
when the Earth reaches a crisis in
electric and rnaanetio perturba-
tions. As early as the 10th the
barometer will fall to threatening-
ly low readings in western and
southern sections, the temperature
will rise, atmospheric conditions
will become close ttnd humid, and
during the 11th, 12th and 13th, vio-
lent storms of rain, wind and thun-
der will sweep over many parts of
the country. On the south to east-
ern flanks of these storm areas,
tornadoes will be a most natural
result. Watch for such develop-
ments wherever' the barometer is
low, the temperature high, with
active and ominous storm clouds
gathering. On and touching the
12th and 13th dangerous gales and
tidal waves should be anticipated
along the gulf and Atlantic coasts.
Earthquake disturbances will also
be reported from various pasts of
the Barth within sixty hours of
noon on the 12th. .At the winding
tip of these storms, severe blizzards
high barometer and cold wave will
rush down from the northwest.

A REMARKABLE MArHINE.
Our enterprising harnessmaker,
Mr. 0. Hartleib, has recently pur-
chased a Landis hard wax, lock
stitch harness machine costing
$375.00
After ten years of practical ex-
perimenting by the inventor, this
machine was first placed on the
market about ten years ago and
therefore is no experiment. It has
been improved from year to year
since that time lentil it has reached
such a state of perfection that it
does better work than it is possible
to do by hand.
As compared with hand work the
machine uses a smaller awl, larger
and stronger thread, twice as much
hard wax which is melted and
pumped into the stitches making
them water proof, more stitches to
the inch and every stitch pulled in
tighter than is possible by hand.
A man sewing by hand pulls the
thread through hole after hole, in
the leather, thus weakening the
thread with each stitch taken be-
fore it finds its place in the com-
pleted work, whereas the machine
uses a new piece of thread for each
and every stitch.
Buyers of harness on first thought
consider all machine made harness
as being factory harness, but this
is not right, as there is a vast differ-
ence between factory made harness
and harness made on a Landis mac
bine in Mr. Hartleib's shop because
be uses better stock and will exerc-
ise greater care in selecting the
best part of the leather for parts of
the harness subjected to the great-
est strain; he will also use better
thread and give closer attention
than the factory to the details
which go to make a first class har-
ness. •
Tho Landis Machine has earned
for itself the most popular endorse-
ment and .approval of the harness
trade in all sections of the country.
This.,00mptgiy,has up to the present
time sold over 4,500 niaehities to
harness makers in every section of
the United States. This is a most
remarkable record and certifies
most thoroughly to the merit and
quality of this machine for harness
se wing and repairing.

START RIGHT.
The pistol shot rang out, and the
race was on. But at the very be-
ginning the man whom many had
picked to win stumbled, and lost a
yard. It was only a yard, but it
cost him the race. He didn't start
right
College had opened, the work had
begun, but the autumn days wooed
the student out of doors. "I can
leave this history till later," he
said ; "I can easily make it up."
And while his fellows worked, his
days slipped by in idleness.
The time of testing came apace,
and the student began to see the
wasted past. In earnest now, he
gave himself to the work, but
somehow dates and facts will not
stay fixed with a few hours' study.
and he failed. He hadn't started
right !
His mother got up at six o'clock
to get his breakfast ; he slept until
seven. Then he came down, and
found fault because the steak was
not done just to his taste. He slam-
med the door behind him as he left
the house, and hardly spoke to his
best friend as he passed him on the
street. He had spoiled the day for
his mother, and had hurt his friend.
But that was not all. At the
office things did not go just as he
would t have them, and what he
said and did made a young man
with whom he had been talking a-
bont becoming a Christian, say,
"Well. now ! I wonder if be really
meant it when he said, 'Christ does
save a man." He had not started
the day right.
The young man rose from the
altar, knowing that Christ had giv-
en him new life, and resolved to be
faithful to his new Master. But he
did not think it- necessary to give
up the evenings at the rendezvous
in the barber -shop, and he'saw 'no
harm in an occasional game of tinct
with some of his old friends at the
pool -room. Before long, his pray-
ers lost, their fervor and availing
]tower, and the struggles of the
13ible herons lost their interest for
him.
One day a terrible temptation
met hint and he yielded, and when
lie carne to himself he was far from
home. He got back, but the jour-
ney was hard, so hard. lie hadn't,
started out right.
Start right ! At the very begin-
ing break with those questionable
resorts, when men know you have
changed your allegiance. They will
honor you for it. Begin every day
with a quiet talk with your Master
ask Him so to guide your life that
you will not go where He cannot
bo with you. T1ien when tempta-
tion comes, turn your back upon
it just as soon- as it enters ; don't
argue, don't question. Give it no
chance to gain a foothold. Half of
the battle lies in the first few min-
utes of th.e fight. Start right !—
