Drag hunting or following the hounds
in a cross-eountry chase has long been
popular at Lakewood. All hunts are
in charge of experienced authorities
who use every precaution against acci-dent.
The hunt coming across a field
with a pack of hounds in full cry affords
one of the most picturesque spectacles
known to sport. Lakewood, indeed, is
an idyllic spot in which to pass a fall or
winter vacation or even a short sojourn
of a few days. The golf club offers ex-ceptional
facilities, and the links are
among the finest in the country. Com-petent
green-keepers are always at
hand to instruct those unfamiliar with
the game and keep in repair the imple-ments
of the sport. The Country Club
is another organization with a large
membership.
Pony polo has added much to the
fame of Lakewood. Probably the most
perfect polo course, in the country is
that at Georgian Court, the estate of
Mr. George Jay Gould. During tour-naments
the privileges of the grounds
are thrown open to the public. Facili
ties for every kind of sport are found
and the roads in and around the town
are kept in perfect condition for riding,
driving and cycling. The nature of

Coreless Apples.
The coreless apple has at last arrived.
I t is called the world's greatest discov-ery
in horticulture, and the wonder of
the age. In color it is red, dotted with
yellow. It is without seeds, and resem-bles
the seedless orange in that a
"slightly hardened substance makes its
appearance at the naval end." But this
can be obliterated by culture. Coreless
apples have been known before, but the
present specimen is the first that can be
propagated in any soil and climate
where the ordinary apple will grow.
There are now 2,000 coreless apple trees
in existence. They have been obtained
from five trees which bore the seedless
fruit. It is estimated that by 1906 there
will be 2,500,000 of these trees bearing
fruit in the orchards of t h e world.

"the copper kingof Mexico," is rated as
the largest landowuerin America. His
holdings in Arizona and iri the state of

The RECORD inserts all notices of
sales in its sale register free of charge
for all such as have their bills printed
at this office, as has been our custom for
years. Therefore it will be to your ad-vantage,
if you intend holding a sale,
to select a date early, so if two sales in
the same neighborhood should occur on
tha same day, they could be changed to
the mutual advantage of both parties
and thus not interfere with one another
The RECORD has the reputation of turn-ing
out as good and neat a sale bill as
any office in the county and people will
prefer to read what is neat, nice and
clean. Send us the dates and we will
do t h e rest.

by Martin Hessler, whose son

was started by F . F. Schuller,
and a son of the same name still con-ducts

will be noted that both names are Ger-man,
which may explain for the busi-ness

THE ATTRACTIVE GIRL.
Much has been written about "the Amer-ican
girl" and her reasons for being' pre-eminently
the most
attractive girl in
the world. In
bringing up girls
mothers can't be
too careful * to let
their daughters de-velop
all their nat-ural
charms to the
utmost.
The crucial epoch
of a woman's life
is the change from
m a i d e n h o o d to
womanhood. It
w f ^ V ^ involves the whole

itself in the ¡nerv-ous
disposition at this time.
Nervous or sick women are afforded the
opportunity of a lifetime, for the makers
of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now
offer $500 reward for women who cannot
be cured. Backed up by over a third of a
century of remarkable and uniform cures,
a record such as no other remedy for the
diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women
ever attained, the proprietors of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription now feel fully war-ranted
in offering to pay $500 in legal money
of the United States for any case of Leu-corrhea,
Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or
Falling of the Womb, whicli they cannot
cure. All they a9k is a fair and reasonable
trial of their means of cure.
" I cannot praise your medicine highly

Huntertown, Indiana. «1 began taking Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription .and took it stead-ily
for six months. I was not once sick at stom-ach,
never vomited once. Took the * Favorite
Prescription' three times a day and when in
severe pain took an extra teaspoonful of medi-cine
which checked the pain. I felt pleasant all
the time and did not get nervous as I used to.
When my baby girl came last August she was
