Railway line noticed yesterday after-

in his efforts. This morning it again
became cantankerous and it was put in
condition for an outing. At about 10
o’clock the mystery was explained.
The threatening clouds that had ob-
scured the sun sent down a flurryOf
snow. But it was only a. flurry, and the

THE WILD T‘A’MARIND’.
’[t Hai a. Remarkable Efi‘ect Upon Non- ’
, ruminant Animals. .
A cu’riousiflant is the wild tamarind,
'orjumbai plant, of the river sides and
waste places of trapical America; and
very strange are its effects upon the
non-ruminant animals that feed upon
its young shoots, leaves, pods and seeds
as ~ described by the British As—
sociation by Mr. D. Morris, of Kew
Gardens. It causes horses to lose the
hair from theirmanes and tails, has a
similar effect upon mules and donkeys,
and reduces pigs to complete naked-
ness. Horses are said to recover when
fed exclusively on corn and grass, but
the new hair is of different color and
texture from the old, so that the ani-
mal is never quite the same as it was.
One instance is cited in which the ani-
mal lost its hoofs too, and had to be
kept in slings until they grew again
and hardened. Ruminant animals are
not thus affected, and the growth .of
the plant is actually encouraged in
the Bahamas as a fodder plant for cat-
tle, sheep and goats. The difference in
its action upon ruminants and ’non-
ruminants is probably due to changes
effected upon it in the chewing of the
cud—Popular Science.
cows WITH EARRINGS.
ldopted in Belgium to Keep Tuberculosis
Out of the Country.
A cow is the last creature one would
ixpect to see with earrings, yet every
lOW in Belgium has got to wear them
low. The Director-General of Agri-
.ulture has issued a regulation that all
inimals of the bovine species are to
rear earrings as soon as they nave
ittaiued the age of three months.
This is a hygienic measure, intend-
id to prevent the introduction into
Belgium of animals suffering from tu--
lerculosis.
Breeders are to be obliged to keep
.n exact account of all animals raised
)y them, and the ring (on which is
engraved a number) is fastened in the
.nimal’s ear for the purpose of pre-
enting—or helping to prevent—the
ubstitution of one animal ior anothx

Shipping Bees.
Live bees are sometimes shipped on
ice, so as to keep them dormant dur-
ing the journey. This is particularly
the case with bumble—bees, which
have been taken to New Zealand,
where they are useful in fertilising
the red clover which has been intro-
duced into the colony.

HOWvTO nun our.
. 'Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the , kidnevs
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of k1dney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convmcing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order. .
- WHAT TO DO.
. There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer‘s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer. and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the_highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have
the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a
sample bottle and pamphlet both sent
free by mail. Mention THE GAZETTE,
and send your address to Dr. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y. The pro-
prietors of this paper guarantee the
genuineness of this affair.
