J., says: "For two years I was in the grasp of kidoey complaint. I had pains in my back, especially in the morning and I experienced sharp twinges when I s too pod or lifted. My back often ached at night. I tired easily, felt languid and nervous and was ■object to headaches and dizzy spells. Another evidence of disordered kidneys was a too frequent desire to pas- the kidney secretions. Finally I tried Doan's Kidney Pills and in a short time they relieved me. They eventually brought about a cure and it has re mained permanent. For sale by all dealers. Price 60 cents, Foster- Miiburn Co., Buffalo, New York.

He leaves a widow, one daugb- . ter and three sons. L r S< nator Harper was the contractor t who built the supplementary water I works in 1U07 and has been a summer L resident here several summers.

In the middle and ' b 7 i southern counties, corn and potato I g planting is finished. In the more northerly counties it is progressing as | .. • the weather permits. In some por- ^ - tions of the southern counties, south ot ' Trenton, potato seed has rotted from j. five to twenty-five per cent, this is a 9 serious loss to tne farmer thus affected. ^ 9 The acreage planted to potatoes is g s ncreased from five to thirty-thres per & 8 cent ; corn acreage aame as last year. E 1 Wheat and rye give promise of a good -p 7 harvest, unless injured later. Grass g r for hay is not up to the average condi- j. * tion at this time of the year. £ Peaches are reported in good oondi1 tion, with fair prospects of an average • yield. " Apple bloom was abundant where " trees are in good condition. Orchards, 1 however, throughout tbe State, have _ been greatly reduced by the San Jose r scale. Pears and cherries have bloomed ^ abundantly. Strawberries in some section! have 8 been injured by frost varying from five to thirty-five per cent.

Atlantic Wants To Rause Fish TO EAT MOSQUITOES Will experiment with Gam* busia, which is a Natural Habitat of Cape May County Congressman Gardner recently recommended a bill before Congress authorizing the expenditure of 640.1 00 for the purpose of propogsling gambusia gracilis, or tbe lop minnow which feeds on tbe larvae of the malarial mosquito. The plant is to be erected at Atlantic Oity. Tbis top minnow first discovered by Silas R. Morse, curator of tbe Jersey State and H. Walker Hand, a local naturalist of Oepe May, tbe fish is a natural habitat of the semi-tropical localities and when an attempt was made to propagate them'in tbe waters north of Oape May County .death re* suited very rapidly. The discovery of tbis little fish accounts for the total absenoe of' malarial mosquitoes in Cape May County. Following ia an extract taken from tbe report of tbe Jersey State Museum for 1907, wEich was compiled by Silas R. Morse, Curator • "Mr. H. Walker Hand and myself again visited Teal's Branch of Pond Greek, where this species was first discovered, and then further down stream, on October 16, 1907. We found the fish very abundant throughout our exploration. Numbers were taken in woodland, where covered with almost impenetrable thickets. In the open courses of the creeks, especially about the shallows, among the aquatic vegetation these little fish lurk in sobools of countless individuals. They are fond of swimming near the surface and when disturbed swim about in procession through the little channels and thoroughfares in the vegetation, though a whole school may easily be captured in a dipnet. We secured about 1000 of which only 60 per cent reached Philadelphia alive though the water was changed shortly after tbeir capture, again at night, and finally tbe following morning when tbey were liberated in large tanks well balanced, etc. They feed well in captivity upon Daphnia and other small aquatic animals. Tbe discovery of this little tiah in Jersey is most interesting, as it has never( before been recorded so far to the north along the Atlantic coast of the United Sta'es Tbe fish has been of much interest to the New Jersey Agricultural Oollege Experiment Station, as an agent in mosquito extermination. Mr. W. P. Seal has recently presented a on tbe introduction of this species and Heterandrice, in New Jersey waters during the fall of 1905. Tbey were placed in brooks flowing into tbe ice pond at a land-locked pond near a mill pond between Merchantville and Glasaboro. and landwaters near Delair. However, as r.one of them seem to have thrived or been seen since, the experiment thought unsuccessful. CASTOR \A For Infants and Children.
