A WOMAN'S MISERY. Mrs. John La Rue, of 115 Paterson Avenue, Paterson, 'N. J., says: “I was troubled for about nine years, and . : what I suf- fered no one will ever know. I used about every known reme- Seca | | dy that is i said to be ee good for kid- ney plaint, without riving manent re lief. Often when alone in the house the back ache has been so bad that it brought tears to my eyes. The pain at times was so intense that I was compelled to give up my household duties and lie down. There were headaches, dizzi- ness and blood rushing to my head to cause bleeding at the nose. The first box of Doan’s Kidney Pills benefited me so much that I continued the treat- ment. The stinging pain in the small of my back, the rushes of blood to the head and other symptoms disappear- Doan’s Kidney Pills for sale by all dealers. 50 cents per box.

Best Are Cast of Copper and Tin, but Hammers Are Too Light. “The Japanese have the largest bells, but the crudest,” said Joachim Perraro of San Francisco. “I went to Japan once as an agent for a bell foundry and gave the Japanese bells much attention. So unskilled are the + Japanese that many of their bells will not ritg, and so they are obliterated from the list of bells. The best bells are of a mixture of copper -and tin, with a hammer one-twentieth the weight of the bell. Japanese bells, even if cast correctly, have too small hammers. . Or they are cast to sound like tin and the hammer does not strike roundly. One of these, the Lit- tle Giant, has never been weighed. It is used to announce births and %. deaths in the royal family. Its clapper F is a small, elongated affair that strikes L with a double sound and the Little Gi- ) ant is easily recognized when heard.” Milwaukee Free Press. . Appeal of the Ludicrous.

FROM SAME BOX % Where the Foods Come From. “Look here, waiter, honest now. don’t you dip every one of these flaked breakfast foods out of the same box?” “Well, yes, boss, we duz, all ’cept ty Grape-Nuts, cause they don’t look like the others and people know ‘zactly what Grap-Nuts looks like. But there’s "boyt a dozen different ones pamed on the bill of fare and they aré all thin rolled flakes so it don’t make any difference which one a man calls for, we just take out the order from one box.” | This talk Jed to an investigation. Dozens of factories sprung up about three years ago, making various kinds of breakfast foods, seeking to take the business of the original prepared breakfast food—Grape-Nuts. These | concerns after a precarious existence | nearly all failed, leaving thousands of | boxes of their foods in mills and ware- houses. These were in several in- stances bought up for a song by spec- ulators and sold out to grocers and hotels for little or nothing. The proc- ] ess of working off this old stock has " been slow. One will see the names on menus of flaked foods that went out of business a year and a half or two years ago. In a few cases where } the abandoned factories have _ been | bought up, there is an effort to resus- citate the defunct, and by copying the style of advertising of Grape-Nuts. seek to influence people to purchase. | But the public has been educated to the fact that all these thin flaked foods are simply soaked wheat or oats rolled thin and dried out and packed. | Th are not prepared like Grape- | Nuts, in which the thorough baking bo and other operations which turn the starch part of the wheat and barley into sugar, occupy many hours and re- eult in a food so digestible that small infants thrive on it, while it also con- tains the selected elements of Phos- \ phate of Potash and Albumen that unite in the body to produce the soft substance in brain and nerve s. There’s a reason for Grape- s, and there have been many imi- tations, a few of the article itself, but many more ofthe kind and character | of the advertising. Imitators are al- ways counterfeiters and their printed and written statements cannot be ex- pected to be different than’ their eray goods. This article is published by the i Postum Co. at Battle Creek. Addition- { al evidence of the truth can be sup- plied in quantities, ay Science of Cattle Feeding. L. H. Kerrick, one of the best-known cattle feeders of Illinois, says: I have had steers I was trying to fatten get such a habit of standing along the fence to watch what other cattle were doing, that we could hard- ly get them up to their feed at the proper time. They would rather rub- ber than eat. If we propose to give our cattle good care, we will need to look after their habits and try to have them form good habits instead of bad ones. I think the habit of lying down a good part of the time can be encour- aged and promoted in steers feeding for beef. I never feel that I have my steers coming just right until I find them lying down much of the time. And when a bunch of steers are found lying quietly, there ought to be very good reason to justify arousing them. If it is at all convenient for your visitor to wait, have him do so until it is convenient for the steers to get uD. of their own accord. I have seen one claiming to be a cattleman—oh, yes, he “had fed steers before you were boern”—ride to a bunch of nearly fat steers all lying down quietly, and with his buggy whip strike them smartly here and there, scarcely allowing a frightened steer half.time to arise in a dignified and beef-making way. Such a man has very much to learn in cattle business and is not very like- ly to learn much more. The whole proper care of cattle might be summed up in this: Make them comfortable and keep them com- fortable, in mind and in body. It is so well worth your while. Cattle are easily frightened, and there are many things that frighten them and fill them with apprehension. They can not and will not thrive except they feel safe, satisfied and comfortable. We have often been complimented on our success in gentling our cattle. We do not take much pains to gentle our catile. We take great pains to do nothing to make them afraid or suspicious of us. It follows then that the cattle of themselves become gen- tle and confident that they are safe in our hands. Thrifty Sheep. I do not believe that it pays to half starve a sheep just because it is very difficult to starve a sheep to death. So much has been said about the little required for sheep, about tha way they will grow fat on weeds and about the little attention they need receive, that people cannot be much blamed if, having never had sheep to eare for, they get a bunch and let them rough it to the extent of be- coming thriftless and unprofitable. Now, the only thing in favor of let- ting sheep rough it is that they will consume weeds if they have to and will-consume some of them anyway, even if they do not have to. But sheep made to live on a little grass and a good many weeds will never amount to much in the way of money- makers. They need to be kept thrifty and that means that they must have a good pasture, and when the pasture begins to fail must have additional feed. The farmer must keep in mind the fact that the same laws govern a sheep as govern other farm animals that are raised for their meat. The sheep must be kept healthy if it is to be able to resist disease. I hear very little complaint about sick sheep on those farms where sheep have been raised so long that their owner knows what they need. My ad- vice now is not to the old keeper of sheep but to the man that is going into sheep raising for the first time. I believe that the thriftless condition of sheep caused by poor feeding has been responsible for the bad repute in which sheep are held on many farms. A thrifty sheep is one that will al- ways be a Satisfaction to the owner and an encouragement to others to go into the business of sheep raising. Cass Co., Il.

There are three thousand head of cattle running loose in the Pinal basin of Arizona and they are owned by twenty men, Each aimal has a brand on his hip as broad as a ham, and crops, bits and underhacks galore in his ears. Beyond these marks of own- ership he is as free as a deer and should he so select could wander from the Mexican border to the Canadian line without running up against a barbed wire fence. Yet such is the simple nature of cattle that they “use” in the country where they are born and only the utmost stress of wind and weather will suffice to drive them away. They are “home folks” and stick to their barren. canyons and water holes with all the devotion of untutored rural man. The calf runs with his mother and learns her ways, which become his ways. It is upon this home instinct that the practice of western. cattle-raising rests—Dave Coolidge in Sunset Magazine. irregular Feeding. Irregular feeding is as bad for hogs as for any other animal or man. I do not refer to the feeding of pasturage, but the feeding of grain or milk. This should be given perhaps twice a day, but not three or four times a day at one time and twice a day at another, and then at irregular.times of day. We should remember that animal life is the same whether it makes itself manifest in the human body or in the body of one of the creatures lower in the scale of life than man.—Albert Jones. fer te ; UNIVERSE ALL » Study of Plant Creation. I asked Mr. Burbank this question: “Has anything developed in your life-work, and in your study of the great elemental forces of nature to imperil true faith or render dead a be- lief in God or the immortality of the soul?” He answered: “My theory of the laws and underly- ing principles of plant creation is in many respects diametrically op- posed to the theories of the material- ists. I am a sincere believer in a higher power than that of man. All my investigations have led me away from the idea of a dead, material uni- verse, tossed about by various forces, to that of a universe which is absolute-. ly all ‘force, life, soul, thought, or whatever name we may choose to call it. Every atom, molecule, plant, ani- mal, or planet is only an aggregation of organized unit forces held in place by stronger forces, thus holding them for a time latent, though teeming with unconceivable power. All life in our planet is, so to speak, just on the outer fringe of this in- finite ocean of force. The universe is not half dead, but all alive.’—Will- iam S. Harwood, in the Century. Reads Like a Miracle. Moravia, N. Y., July 17th.—(Special) —Bordering on the miraculous is the case of Mrs. Benj. Wilson, of this place. Suffering from Sugar Diabetes, she wasted away till from weighing 200 Ibs. she barely tipped the scales at 130 Ibs. Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured her. Speaking of her cure her hus- band, says: ez “My wife suffered everything from Sugar Diabetes. She was sick four years and doctored with two doctors, but. received no benefit. She had so much pain all over that she could not rest day or night. The doctors said that she could not live. “Then an advertisement led me to try Dodd’s Kidney Pills and they helped her right from the first. Five boxes of them cured her. Dodd’s Kid- ney Pills were a God-sent remedy to ug and we recommend them to all suf- fering from Kidney Disease.” Dodd’s Kidney Pills cure all Kidney Diseases, including Bright's disease, and all Kidney aches, including Rheu- matism.

NERVOUS PROSTRATION. One Who Broke Down from Six Years of Overwork Tells How She Escaped Misery of Enforced Idleness, “I had been teaching in the city schools steadily for six years,” said Miss James, whose recent return to the work from which she was driven by nervous collapse has attracted attention. “They were greatly overcrowded, especially in the primary department of which I had charge, and I had been doing the work of two teachers. The strain was too much for my nerves and two years ago the crisis came. “I was prostrated mentally and phy- sically, sent in my resignation and never expected to be able to resume work. It seemed to me then that I was the most miserable woman on earth. I was tor- tured by neryons headaches, worn out by inability to sleep, and had 60 little blood that I was as white as chalk. ‘After my active life, it was hard to bear idleness, and terribly discouraging to keep paying out the savings of years for medicines which did me no good.” ‘How did you get back your health ?”” “A bare chance and a lot of faith led metoacure. After I had suffered for many mouths, and when I was on the very verge of despair, I happened to read an account of some cures effected by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. The state- ments were so convincing that I some- how felt assured that these pills would help me. Most people, I think, buy only one box for a trial, but I purchased six boxes at once, and when I had used them up, I was indeed well and had no need of more medicine. “Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills enriched my stored my appetite, gave me strength to walk long distances without fatigue, in fact.freed me from all my numerous ail- ments. I have already taught for several months, and I cannot say enongh in praise of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” Miss Margaret M. James is now living at No. 123 Clay street, Dayton, Ohio. Many of her fellow teachers have also used Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and are enthusiastic about their merits. Sound digestion, strength, ambition, aud cheer- ful spirits quickly follow their use. They are sold in every drug store in the world.

Forry YEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, landanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them “ poison.” The definition of “narcotic” is: “.4 med icine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convul- sions and death.’’ The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of “Drops,” “Cordials,” “Soothing Syrups,” etc. You should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.
