remedies for about five years, but
when the spot began to get larger I
put hint under the care of doctors. Un
der their treatment the disease spread
to four different parts of his body. The
longer the doctors treated him the
worse It grew. During the day it
would get roujjb and form like scales.
At night It would be cracked, Inflamed,
and badly swollen, with terrible burn

His screams could be heard down

to work, to eat. uor could I sleep. One
doctor told me. that my son's eczema

The EtIU of Constipation
are many; In fact almost every serious
illness has Its origin in constipation, and
some medicines, instead of preventing con
stipation, add to it. This is true of most
iathartics, which, when Brst used, have a
beneficial effect, but the dose has to be
Continually iiirivasi-d, and before long the
ffinrdy ceases to have the slijihtest effect.
There Is one preparation, however, that
can be relied upon to produce the same
results with the same dose, even after
fifty years daily use. and this is Brand-
retb's rills, which lias a record of over
100 years as the standard remedy for con
stipation and all troubles arising from an
Impure Rtnte of the blood.

"Star Spangled Runner."
"In days to come," he said, "when peo

Yet even he had no premonition that
the day would come when the playing of
"The Star Spangled Banner" by a theater
orchestra would make the people within

SECOND HELEN KELLER.
f'ctnarnllnHy rtllntl find Dumb, h
" ninrkalili lroitrei.
Tii , .' II -year-old Maud Scott I
pro; . ;al that or Helen Keller
in U::.. . This child Is said to be
tlio only congenital!)- blind nnd deaf
persoti whose education has been under
taken. One extraordinary part of the story
Is that up to the time she was 7 years
old Maud Scott had lived entirely In
a crndlo made for her uo. Sol a thing
had been done to teach hor the merest
beginning of normal exlsto.iee.
Slip did not know that Fho could
tand or sit or walk. When she was
taken to the Institution for the deaf
nnd dumb at Jackson, Miss., rven
prominent educators pronounced the
case impclcs.
I.Ike Helen Keller, little Maud Sfo't
found a teacher who was wllllns to
devoti! hor-ok' even to it -eeniln:-ly
l'lipeloas task. The teacher was Mr.
M. A. IlodUn.
The first task undertaken, says the
New Orleans Timns-DenioT.lt, was to
teach her the use of h-'n lower and
upper lltnbs. She was lift" I from the
cradle and held in it a'.audiiij? picture
nnd after days of patient perseverance
to the darkness of Maud's niul there
came Its lirst light. She was tauu'Ht
that these legs nnd feet woro to stand
ami walk on and that Vie standing
IHihturo was projier nnd tlio custom o?
other people In the world.
It was then evidenced to her mind
that the cradle she had occupied for
seven years was to be used In future
only for rest. Tutoring the 1 ittlo nnns
nnd hands was tlio next undertaking.
It was made clear to Mind that her
arms and hands were len her not
merely to be waved In darkness from a
cradle. A ball was placed in the hand.
Maud's lingers were press.? I about It.
She was given the object to handle
day after day. and linal'.y the became
acquainted with It. She wis familiar
with the shape nnd size, .mil when It
had one day been changed to one slight-
lv different In proportions the little
girl noted the difference in her facial
expression.
This was the first evidence of tlio
workings of the mind of this benight
ed child. Before this time, at Inter
vals, Maud had felt her .'.pa pressed
open by some oval-pointed object and
food was put In her mouth. 1 hat was
all she knew of eating. She hail no
Idea o-,' the neccssty of this process.
and if -ei'tain tastes ploas-d her there
was no method of communicating the
act that they might be repeated. If
she might become hungry before serv
ing time there was nothing to do but
wait.
Mrs. Bodkin acquainted Maud with
the process of feeding bernelr. Al
most for endless days, the pupil at
table beside the teacher, a spoon was
pressed Into her hand, the flegers were
closely pressed about It, ind a motion
of conveying It from platter to mouth
was repeated.
"Deacon P.abbltt," by Edgar Blanfc-
na:i, is one or tin; quuiuicsi ihjvcin
iiwe "David Haruni." Everybody Is
aniiliar with tho New England il'ii
on In fact, with the deacons of all
parts of the country. Old Hahbitt Is n
typical character, and his quaint do
ings and equally unique sayings make
the book a live one.
Miss Mary Mears Is soon to publish
a novel of striking possibilities. It is
entitled "'The lireath ot the uunners.
If those who have read it know what
they nre talking about, .and some line
critics have done so, It will make the
reader's breath "come snort" from the
first page to the last. It tells of "stren
uous" tiiiK's and "strenuous' things,
which, of course, means it is telling the
tale of to-day in the worW of business
ami :ove.
The New York Times says of Mr.
Harben's "Ann Boyd." that Ann docs
uot measure up to the typlcul Georgia
or southern woman. It complains that
she Is too rough and rugged. Therein
lies the beauty of the story. Ann Is a
typical creature, but there are few of
bcr kind. She la here, lnwever, and
can be seen if hunted up. And liar-
beu has told her life story accurately
and lilled the pages ot the book with
bis usual witty sayings.
Mr. Howells and Mrs. Wharton have
made some very virile remarks about
tlct Ion in the late magazines. Mr
Howells gives the opinion that the dol-
iir-and-a-half novel of today Is the
lime novel of yesterday. The expen
lircness of the later work causes It to
Ind n place on the library shelf, but
the literary quality does not make the
author famous. Mr. Howells thinks
not differently rrom the criticism
which, allteit not public; criticism, !s
heard on every side, as to the charac
ter and value of most fiction which
being deluged uxm an unresist!!!
reading public. AVe say unresisting, for
there Is no outcry made. So we be
lieve that these two masters of fh
tlon have given a timely message of
convictions which "ache." If they may
Imt Inllueiieo the great indiscriniliiat
Ing reading class, and so bring about
a greater reserve lu what is read, w
may hope for" more deliberate as well
as more artistic work. It would seem
that to write a '"book that will sell'
might l the lowest motive of a lit
arv aspirant. But, as Mrs. Wh.irt n
puts It, we all know that for the sake
of a quick money-response, the "In
tcgrlty of letters" has been Injun
and also that this influence litis lien
strong In "turning creative lab'iit
lioin the straight and narrow path."

It Is always nn indication of a dry
spell or the neglect of somebody when
the pump handle slicks up, pointing
obliquely at tho sky. It makes one
weary to look at a pump In this predic
ament. it certainly looks like a wasteful
practice to bu''k away the straw at
thrashing time and burn it. There are
so many uses to which straw can be
put that It does not look right to see
it burned.
The lima beau has been nn Impor
tant article of food with us for many
years. At the present time thousands
of acres are devoted to Its culture,
especially In regions of California,
where" rainfall is scanty.
While dairying has Its disadvan
tages, it has this great advantage, that
it enables the farmer to utilize to an
unusual extent the cheaper labor on
the farm, and to make the most pos
sible out of a small tract of land.
There are several ways of planting
strawberries. They are sometimes
grown in hills. In this case the plants
ire set about two feet apart in rows
four feet apart, and nil the runners are
cut off and the full strength forced In

This is the age of the handy man
the man who applies his thoughts to
make things himself rather than to
hire them made. He Is not only doin
these, but he has his eyes open to note
what others are doing so he can apply
their best Ideas to his own needs.

One of the remedies for low prices Is
to endeavor to make each acre of
land double itself in production. As
many as sixty tuisiicis or wneai nave
been grown on one acre, as an experl
inent. yet some farmers who secure
twenty bushels per acre are satisfied.
There Is always "room at the top" In

Wherever clover Is grown lime gives
excellent results on the land, not only
on account of its chemical action on the

Sulphnte of lime (land plaster) on
heavy soils Is a special fertilizer for
clover, and may be applied lu the
spring of the second year.
Tho best way to set early spring

nary manner. In uuy common winter
they will live through with no protec

on a light coat of mulching. You can

Timothy or Clover.
After an experiment In fattening
hor.scs the Illinois Kxpcrimcnt Station
says lit effect about timothy hay for
horses that will be surprising to many
horsemen :
A feature of the experiment wns the
demonstration of the worthlessness of
timothy hay, something that lnyae Hosh
ers will do well to keep In mind. Tim
othy Li good to haul to town and sell
the oilier fellow. Clover beats It nil
i round, in the experiment horses fed
on corn, e;its and clover gained .'n
pounds each In ninety-two days. The
lot fed on the same ration except tim
othy was substituted for clover, the
gain was 112 pounds and the timothy
atlou cost more than clover.
From this It Is plain that timothy Is
in unprintable raw material for fnrni-
f ceding operations. If you must grow
It, sell to the man in town. Corn, oats
nnd clover hay, with n little bran and
oil meal, constitute an Ideal ration for
fattening horses.

wns found to be a good producer, lint
there seemed to be no market for It,
(iradually the millers adapted their
machinery to Its u?e and fe.und It ex

the case of the more recently Introduced
durum or macaroni wheat, which !
better adapted to n dry climate than
uny other wheat yet Introduced, tann
ers have been anxious about the market,
but an Investigation recently made by
Prof. W. II. Olln, agronomist of the
Colorado Agricultural College shows
that there need bo no further misgiv
ings ii bout sidling this wheat. Prof.
Olln his replies from Kansas City,
Omaha. St. I.ouis, Cincinnati, Chicago
and Minneapolis which show ready
markets In all these places for durum
wheat. The export demand Is strong.
but the time should soon come when
American manufacturers of macaruul

There Is not In America iiu" man
who is more familiar with agriculture
as a business than Professor Ii. II.
Itailey, who, for years, has been at the
head of the Cornell Agricultural Col
lege, and has contributed much to the
farmers' sum of farm knowledge. Writ
ing In the Century. Professor Halley
says :
The character of farming Is chang
ing rapidly. It is eom.-.ig more and
more to be an efllclcnt, profitable and
attractive business. With here snd
there an exception, in the past we have
not given much consecutive thought to
the business nothing like as much us
the merchant gives to his business or
the doctor to his. It has been so
easy" u businci tbat untrained men
could succeed In It Tho change In
economic and social conditions is
breaking up the tradition. Farming
is becoming more dlllicult, nnd the old
methods must go. In tho future only
the well-informed and cfnclent-thlukln;;
mnn enn succeed; that is, only the edu
cated man.
The country Is to offer other advan
tages to the educated man than merely
to be a good fanner. There are good
opiKJi'tuultlos for leadership on public
questions probably better opjiortunlty
and with less competition than In the
great cities. The very fact that city
representation Is Increasing in the leg
islatures sl.ould make the aide country
representative more of a marked limn.
The growth of the Institute movement,
of the grange and other rural organi
zations, gives fresh opportunity to de
velop leadership of a high order.
It seems to me that by the very na
ture of the progress wo are making,
the college man must go to the farm.
In fact, college men have been going
back from the beginning of the agricul
tural education movement. Statistics
show that a very large percentage
actually have returned to fanning, and
this in spite of the fact that cities have
lieen growing with marvelous rapidity,
and that the whole system of agricul
tural colleges and experiment stations
has been developing and calling Tor
men. Considering the limit ations un
der which the agricultural col log -s
bnve developed, with mt sympathy,
with the Indifference :.nd sometimes
the opposition of educators -the ery
men who should have! known better
with wholly Inadequate funds, It is
little less than marvelous what they
have accomplished within a generation.
It Is probable that the pioortioii of
students of the leading agricultural col
leges who now engage In agricultural
pursuits is greater than that of stu
dents of colleges of law or of other pro'
fcsslonal colleges who follow their chos
en profession. No one now questions
the valun of ci'tii-atioii to a lawyer or
phi -b'iau ; why iuo-tloii Its value to a
farmer? The cdueated man will go
b:n k to the farm if he is fitted to be
fanner.

as vlih joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play when in health and
how conducive to health the games in which they Indulge, the outdoor life they
enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome
diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved,
not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an Injuri
ous or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist
nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure
and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has
come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate
of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use.
Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because
they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputa
ble physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an
original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and
presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are
used to promote the pleasant taste ; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence
we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, vho'do not approve of patent
medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medicaticn.
Please to remember and teach your children also that thj genuine Syrup of Figs
always has the full name of the Company California Fig' Syrup Co. plainly
printed on the front of every package and that It Is for sale in bottles of one size
only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having
printed thereon the name of any other company, do not txc-ot it. If you fail to get
the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every fnily should always have
a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children,
whenever a laxative remedy is required.
