BUTTERFLIES BRED TO ORDER. In Demand by Rich Men to Beautify Their Lawns. Butterflies make an admirable garden decoration, and, therefore," said a landscape gardener, they are being bred for lawns the same as peacocks are bred. You have heard, of course, of peacock farms. Their crops are peacocks, and the birds are sold to rich men to decorate their lawns with. Well, a butterfly farm is one where the crops are butterflies. Such a farm has been set up in California, and it is doing well. The farm was started on a capital of $500. A glass house was put up and ft, 000 caterpillars were bought. The caterpillars in due time became butterflies. The butterflies were sold at a fair profit to a number of mil- lionaires. In certain millionaires gardens it was possible to see during the summer big flocks of butterflies some white, some blue and some Iridescent. These were a part of the crop of the butterfly farm. The California breeder got his Idea from London. There for some years they have bred all the butterflies that decorate Battersea park beautifully." Honest Opinion. Mineral, Idaho. Nov. 14th. (Special.) That a sure cure has been discovered for those sciatic pains that make so many lives miserable, is the firm opinion of Mr. D. S. Colson, a well known resident of this place, and he does not hesitate to say that cure is Dodds Kidney Pills. The reason Mr. Colson is so firm in his opinion is that he had those terrible pains and is cured. Speaking of the matter he says: I am only too happy to say Dodds Kidney Pills have done me lots of good. I had awful pains in my hip so I could hardly walk. Dodds Kidney Pills stopped It entirely. I think they are a grand medicine." All sciatic and Rheumatic pains are caused by Uric Acid in the blood. Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy Kidneys, and healthy Kidneys Rtrain all the Uric Acid out of the blood. With the cause removed there can be no Rheumatism or Sciatica. An AVOID White SUN OF INDIA.

Something of this he jjut into words for his answer. Much to his surprise his great concession seemed to meet with a cool reception.
