We have long betlcved that this condition of utT.itt s would comet Itself, tine of the reasons that our young men have been so willing to leave the old country home lias been the lack of country attractions. This can hardly be said to hold good to-day. The trolley car. telephone and free rural mail delivery have well nigh wiped out the dUtlticlloiis between city and suburban life. Another powerful factor now working for the upbuilding of Hie country life Is the aurh uliural college. Our young men are fast learning that fanning Is no longer the hap hazard business of a 'former day. but Is one of the most exacting and sclent ill.- of pursuits. With this knowledge comes a higher respect for the vocation and a stronger desire lo enter the Indu-dry.

If a man works too much and sleeps too little one day. he Is very likely to wake up next mornlnt; lu a Mirly humor and keep him self and every one about him uncomfortable for the day. In such, a case n man deliberately and with savage per vorseness cultivates his irascibility.

SK of the most iotious problems that con fronts the economic world today is to keep the younj.' men on the farms. For many years there has been a tendency to congregate In the cities, and to such an exteut has this been car ried that ull the vocations of city life have been so over-crowded that to-day it is well- nigh Impossible for a stranger to get n foodhold. For every situation there are a score of applicants, and the young man who has no Influential friends to render him Btuhelort Arc Spoiled. i:Nl a doubt, society spoils ninny bachel ors, by maklm; too much of them. The pur pose nf s'ti'iety is to bring the men and the maids together, mate them and marry lliem. Hut society frustrates Its own purpose by pet ting nnd pampering unmarried men. It puis a premium on the single state, at least for men. Bachelors are made so contented with their condition that it Is no wonder they are loath to alter It. They stand, as It were, on a pedestal, lu heroic pose, like demigods, lu cense Is burned before them. Then the girls complain be cause the men don't marry. If the young women of this generation are left old maids they may blame themselves and the ways of society. Society, for its omi sake, might tv make things tiupleas ant for bachelors. I'lunari'lcil men should be forced to feel that they have n duty yet unperformed, and that they are received only on sufferance. They should be kept In the background lu all events aud below the salt at table. The married man, on the contrary, should K received as one who has done his duty faithfully and well, und has merited reward, fie should be favored in every possible way In order lo point the illiTcrciic;' between his honorable Mate and the unworthy condition of the single.

The origin of chronic catarrh, the most common und dreadful of dis eases, is a cold. This Is the way tlie chronic catarrh generally begins. A person catches colds which hangs on longer tliun usual. The cold generally starts in the head und throat. Then follow sensitiveness of the ail passages which incline one to catch cold very easily. At hist the person has cold ull tin- while Nccniiugly, more or less disehiirge from the nose, hawking, spilling, frequent clearing of tlie tliroat, nostrils stopped up, roll teeling lu tlie head and sore, iutlauieil throat. The best time to treat catarrh is at tlie verv beginning. A bottle of Tcruna prop erly used never fails to cure a common (slid, thus preventing chronic cuiiirrh. While many people have been cured of chronic catarrh by n single bottle of Teiunii, yet, us n rule, when the catarrh becomes thoroughly tixed, more than uue bottle is necessary to complete n cure. IVrnnti has cured cases innumer able of entail li of twenty eurs' stiind ing. It is the best. If not tho only inter nal remedy for chronic cuturrli in ex istence. But prevention is fur better than cure. Kverv person subject to catching cold should take Termiu ut once at the slight est symptom of cold or sore throat at this season of the year nnd thus prevent what is ultnost certain to end iu clirouic catarrh.
