The standing and business ability of a farmer are largely judged by the business letter he writes, asserts II.

W. Davis, ab-sociate professor of the Elfish language in the Kansas State Agriculture college. This ia particularly important if the farmer is specializing in a pure bred stock or chicken business- "The amount of business ransacted by letter in this country has increased enormously and the importance of a good business letter is becoming widely realized," says Mr. Davis. "Many farmers engaged in selling pure bred chickens have excellent catalogs but spoil their sales' by the poor letters they write.

A good business letter also gives the an advantage in dealings with the house from which he orders. "The letter paper and the letterhead should be simple and business-like- The language" used should be simple, neat and forceful, and indicative of the kind of business the farmer is in."

They have Bulislltuled live parts of tho hiiuian body for dead parts; they havo not heurt substance beating out-sldo Its proper place in man's brciust.

If they keep on they may la time make man out of parts of other men. ISut If the Ht (trios of wluit Indian fakirs havo dono in keeping persons ullvo lu comatose condition for many years I true Uicho Rockefellers or scientific fellers or whatever they arc have yet much to learn from an nnthpio and apparently undeveloped civilization. There is a story going the rounds among tho undergraduates of a certain university which, If It can be substantiated, puts the modern scientific Investigator to shame. Arnold Gercau, assistant professor of cbonilstry-lie has charge of the laboratory is one of those phenomena who spring up once In century. IIo Is very young, and It Is Avell known that ho was horn with certain mental powers, a certain supernatural knowledge of things on which many a man has studied for a lifetime without making any progress whatever.

Willhur Stockhridgo, a member of the class of so the story goes, one day to Professor Gereau with a yellow bit of paper on which was written In old English style: Tills la tJie boily of William Arliuckle, prlvnte in hla majesty's th foot. Captured In tho patriot lines with maps show-Ins our fortifications on tho upper part of Manhattan Islutul. lie was condemned for a spy. An Indian serving with tho same regiment lio had Joined It at Singaporeproposed to General Washington to put the man to sleep for an Indefinite period Instead of executing him. The general, who was averse to the execution, consented, and Arbuckle waa turned over to the Indian, who claims that any time after fifty or even a hundred years life will still be In (he body.

But not one man In many millions will be able to effect a resurrection. Young Stockbrldge told the professor that In excavating for building purposes on the upper part of Manhattan Island on property owned by his family a tomb had been discovered containing the body of a man in British uniform of former period. The paper had been found in the lead collln In which tho body had been buried. Gereau mind you, I don't vouch for this arranged with the student to bring the find to the laboratory, which at the time was closed on account of the spring recess and would therefore be nt the professor's individual disposal. So one has attempted to give the process by which Gereau manipulated tho remains of Private Arbuckle, but it Is claimed that he effected a resurrection.

Tho professor avers that he worked on lines which are being followed by modern scientific investigators. He must have had an Inkling of the method by which animation was suspended by the Indian or he would not have been able to restore It by reverse action, which, he says, he applied. He gives as a fundamental principle that the Indian knew how to suspend not kill the action of the heart, and Gereau restored the pulsations, which nre the basis of animal life. Whether tue story is true or false there is one part of it that tits in with modern scientific investigation. It is said that Gereau found that certain members of the body had suffered from the long suspension of their functions.

The resurrected man showed signs of decay, and the professor feared that, though he had remained in an ordinary condition of health for more than 130 years, ho would die within a few hours after resurrection. A test was begun of different organs, and the first tested the kidneys showed decay. Gereau at once telephoned to the College of Physicians and Surgeons for a pair of sound kidneys nnd, removing the ones affected, Introduced the new ones. IIo supposed for some time that Arbuckle had died under the operation, but half a bottle of Irish whisky brought him round. The liver was next tackled, and half of it replaced.

There were other parts to be substituted, but those mentioned were the principal replacements. These operations required several hours, and another hour passed before Private Arbuckle spoke. Then he. opened his eyes and cried out in a voice tluit seemed to come through dry leather: "Corporal of the guard!" Gereau was delighted. It looked as if he might save his patient, for while the man had doubtless been deanimat-ed in good health his being brought back to consciousness was not only a jliflicult matter, but a dangerous one.

There are several versions of the rest of the story, gome say that Arbuckle wns sufficiently restored to remember and speak of his expected execution. Others aver that Gereau, finding hid breathing defective, worked his arms vigorously, but lu spite of his efforts the man died. It is said that at one time Arbuckle sat up and was given a stiff drink. Raising the glass he shouted In a hornlike voice: "To his gracious majesty King George. God bless him and confound his rebellious subjects!" Stockbrldge and Gereau have both been nsked to make a statement, but have refused either to affirm or deny the story.

It Is suspected that they nre nfrald of coming under the ban of the law, which might involve them In a charge of murder. a a a US Local and Personal Bolsinger's Bread A Phone orders filled at the Hiawatha Greenhouse. rirAwivMAnp PUREJVHOLESOME to IN FOUR ACTS to to to Mrs. 0.
