A strik- ing instance of this occurred not long since at a Zoo. “You know the old nature fake about, the swan—how .this beautiful bird, silent all its days, bursts when dying into the sweetest song? “Well, at a Zoo one day, a keeper saw a boy steal up behind a swan with a brick in his hand. “Here,’ said the keeper, ‘what are you going to do there?’ “‘Ah, lemme alone, toy, ‘I wanter hear him sing.’” Will It Come to This?

Just a word to you, “Collier’s” and other glaring examples of Modern Yellow Journalism and Cigarettes. Environment gives you a view-point from which it is difficult to under- stand that some people even nowa- ays act from motives of old fashion- ed honesty. There are honest makers of foods and healthful beverages and there are honest people who use them. Perhaps you are trained to believe there is no honesty in this world. There is, although you may not be of a kind to understand it. Some of you have been trained in a sorry class of pretenders, but your training does not taint the old fashion- ed person trained without knowledge of pretense and deceit. These letters came to us absolutely without solicitation. We have a great many thousand from people who have been helped or entirely healed by fol- lowing the suggestions’ to quit the food or drink which may be causing the physical complaints and change to Postum Coffee or Grape-Nuts food. You are not intelligent enough to know the technical reasons why the change makes a change in the cells of the body. Your knowledge, or lack of knowledge, makes not the slightest difference in the facts. You can print from old and worn plates all the cheap books your presses will produce and sell them as best you can, but such acts and your “learned” editorials are but commer cial, and seek only “dollars” and much by pretence. When you branch out into food values you become only ridiculous. Stick to what you know. The field may be small but it is safe.

Dear Sirs: 1 am, this morning, in receipt of the enclosed mighty good letter from one of my subscribers, which I forward to you, and which I am sure you will be glad to use. I am personally acquaint- ed with this lady, and know that she has no object in writing, other than ‘to do good. Cordially, John W. Pritchard, Pres. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 1, 1907. Dear Mr. Pritchard: Noticing Postum Food Coffee adver- tised each week in your reliable pa- per, I concluded to try it, and feeling {t a duty towards those who may have suffered as I have from indigestion, desire to state what wonderful bene- fit I have received from Postum al- though using only a short time, and not do. I alone realize and appreciate its good effects, but friends remark, “How much I have improved and how well I look”, and I tell the faets about Postum every time, for since using it I have pot had one attack of indi- gestion. It is invigorating, healthful; does not affect’ the nerves as ordinary coffee, and if properly made, a most delicious drink. Although I have not had much faith in general advertis- ing, yet, finding Postum has done so much better for me than I expected I am more inclined to “Prove all things, hold fast that which is good.” I am so thankful for good health that I, want it known what a blessing Pos- tum has been to me. You may use these few lines as an ad. if you so de- sire and my name also. Very truly yours, Anna §S. Reeves. 275 McDonough St., Brooklyn. Coffee hurt her, she quit and used Postum.

The pipes. connect be- low the roof with wooden boxes which BEST section to the right by the arrows at FG.” Other plans described by Professor King for ventilating different kinds of stables are shown in figs 3, 4 and 5. In fig. 3, “on the right a notch is left in the wall when building, so that the flue rises flush with the inside wall while on the left side the flue is shown Fig. 1—A, The Massey eystem of vent Agricultural College barn. B, Su in part in the Ontario Agricultural carry the air through the ceiling of the stable to the floor and along the floor in front of the mangers. In front of each stall there is a 4-inch opening in the box to let the fresh air into the passage. The foul air passes out through the pipes leading from the and terminating in a roof-like top to protect them from the wind and rain. This system is supplemented by one in which the air is admitted along the side walls near the top instead of at the floor. (Fig. 1B). The lat- ter plan is better suited to old stables in which pipves.can not be laid along or under the floor. A subearth duct may be substituted for the wooden pipe for distributing the air in the stable, but, according to Professor Reynolds, is better. suited for use in winter than in summer, since “in @ Fig. 2.—Cross section of the Wiscon- sin Station barn, showing system of ventilation devised by Professor King. summer the outside air, after passing through the underground duct, rises in relative humidity and becomes somewhat damp.” A system of stable ventilation de- vised by Professor King and success- fully employed in the ;Wisconsin Sta- Fig. 3.—Simple methods of taking air into stone or basement stables. ¢ tion barn is illustrated in fig. 2. As the figure shows “a single ventilating flue DE rises above the roof of the main barn, and is divided below the roof into two arms ABD, which termi- nate at or near the level of the stable floor at AA. These openings are pro- vided with ordinary registers, with valves to be opened and closed when desired. Two other ventilators are placed at BB, to be used when the Fig. 4—Method of taking air into a barn on the uphill or bank side. stable is too warm, but are provided with valves to be closed at other times. C is a direct 12-inch ventilator leading into the main shaft, and opening from the ceiling, so as to admit a current of warm air at all times to the main shaft to help force the draft. This ventilating shaft is made of galvan- ised iron, the upper portion being 3! feet in diameter.

This may be done by building around 5-inch drain tile or around a box made of fencing.” Fig. 4 shows a “method of taking air into a bank barn on the up-hill or bankside. The air flue is made in the same way as (that just) desgribed, but on the outside has its end covered as represented at A on the right with a length of 6 or 8 inch sewer tile with its top covered with a cap of coarse Fig. 5.—Section of a dairy barn show- ing two methods of ventilation. wire screen. Drain tile would not answer for the outside exposure at the surface of the ground as frost would cause it to crumble. Wood could be used and replaced after rot- ting has occurred.” Fig. 5 shows “two methods of venti- lating a dairy barn. On the right the ventilating flue DF rises straight from the floor, passing out through the roof and rising above the ridge. One, two or three of these would be used ac- cording to number of cattle. The flues should be at one or the other side of the cupola rather than behind it. On the left CE represents how a hay shoot may be used also for ventilating flue. In each of these cases the ven- tilating flue would take the place of one cow. This method would give the best ventilation, but has the objection of occupying valuable space. C, in the feed shoot, is a door which Awings out when hay is being thrown down, but is closed when used as a ventila- tor, the door not reaching quite to the floor. To take air into this stable, if it is built of wood with studding, openings would be left at A about 4 by 12 inches every 12 to 16 feet, and the air would enter and rise between the sheeting of the inside and the sid- ing on the outside, entering at B as represented by the arrows.” Sheep as Scavengers.—A writer in the American Sheep Breeder says: We are wintering 37 ewes on clover hay, corn stalks and clean, bright oat straw. Last summer I turned my sheep in a stubble field where there was a patch of Canada thistles that had been cut before’ harvest to pre- vent them from going to seed. The second growth was.about six inches high and very brushy. The sheep browsed every one close to the ground. Soon after I plowed the field, but whenever the sheep crossed’ it they would go to the thistle patch and eat all the roots they could find. The flock was not starved down to thistles, but were in such shape that four of them took second prize at the county fair under strong competition. No doubt sheep are scavengers.

The magistrate looked severely at the chauffeur. “That makes two people you've kill- ed in my jurisdiction,” he said. “Besides five crippled,” suggested the chauffeur. “Why, that’s a peach of a machine. They just can’t get away from it.” “What did you say the make was?” inquired the magistrate, who liked an occasional spin himself. Blessed Are the Peacemakers.
