fjl h ' Does Backache Worry You? Many who ceffcr with backacho and weak kidneys are unnaturally irritable and fretful. Bad kid nop fail to elim inate all the uric acid from the sys tem, keeping you "on edge" and caus ing rheumatic, neuralgia pains. When your back aches, and you notice signs of bladder irregularities, suspect your kidneys and begin using Doan's Kidney Pills, the- best recommended special kidney remedy. An Arkimai Cie Mm.

This Is tho Ham-mam-Meskhutln, which means "Tho bath of the damned," and Is located 62 miles from Constantlne. This solidified -cascade is the production of calcare ous deposits from sulphurous and fer ruginous in in oral springs, issuing from tho depths of tho earth at a tem perature of 93 degrees centigrade. "The bath of the damned," even from a near viewpoint, looks for all the world like a great wall of water dashing into a swirling pool at Its foot, yet its gleaming, graceful curves and the apparently swirling eddies at Its base are as fixed and immovable as if carved from tho face of a granite cliff. Mnny centuries have, of course, gone to the making of the deposits, and tho springs were well known to tho ancient Romans. The name Hum-mam-Meskhutln was given to tho stone cataract In an allusion to a legend that the waterfall was petrified by Allah, punishing tho Impiety of un believers by turning all the members of the tribe into stone. At night, so tho story runs, its stono dwellers of tho remote ages are freed from their strange fetters, come to life and re sume their normal shapes. Almost the Speed Limit. "No man is a coward to himself," said the Civil war veteran, oracularly. "At Chattanooga, one of tho men in my company left early in the action, and no one saw him till after the bat tle, when ho appeared in camp un wounded and unabashed. Somo of tho boys accused him of running nway, but ho wouldn't admit It. " 'I only rotreatcd in good order,' ho declared "I heard of tho matter, anil a few days later I asked him If ho had any Idea how fast ho had 'retreated.' '"Well. I'll tell you, cap'n,' ho said If. I'd been nt home, and eolng after tho doctor, folks that sep me passln' would have thought my wife was right sick!'" Youth's Companion. Both True. "I heard quite a paradoxical romarli the other day."

Percentage of Work Done by Mechani cal Power Is Rapidly Increasing Each Year Greater Variety of Equipment Required. Tho walking plow Is not n practical Implement for regular uso on tho av erage farm In tho west, owing to Us wasto of human labor. Tho largo nrca cultivated makes the two-furrow gang plows tho most generally popular when pulled by horses. Tho largo area of level land, freo from obstructions, has created a remarkable Held for tho englno gang plow, and tho percotnago of plowing dono by mechanical power Is rapidly Increasing ench year. In this section tho mold-board plow 1b by far tho most popular, writes L. W. Ellis In tho Denver Field and Farm. The disk plow Is used considerably In land which has first been subdued by the uso of the moldbonrd. When tho 3oll contains much clay or gypsum and llmo, the Bteel moldboard scours better than the chilled. Cast Bhares can be used with either moldboard In all but a fow soils, and aro cheaper than tho steel lays. Tho use of larger animals has been accompanied by a gradual Increase In the average slzo of plows, even In the last decade. On the Irrigated farms tho two-way sulky plow is growing in favor, owing to the fact that no dead furrows aro loft to Interfere with the distribution of water. This Is a curious and un premeditated adaptation of a plow originally designed especially for hilly ground In New England, and it is about tho only thing wo hnd back In tho Pennsylvania mountains. Disk plows aro used to subdue much of the sage brush prairie found In the west and Increases In favor toward the southern latitudes. Tho topography and slzo of our grain farms In Colo rado, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mex ico favor tho use of mechanical power and engine gang plows. Probably four fifths of the traction outfits include the disk engino gang. Conditions In our western states require a greater variety of farm equipment than In any other section and practically every type of plow found elsewhere In tho United States is used. Hero tho land varies from level to mountainous, tho farms from tiny patches of highly val uable fruit and truck crops to Im mense grain ranches. We havo nil climates and nltltudes. Tho great diversity of crops, tho varia tion in kind and depth of soil, mako the depths of plowing widely different In different sections. Not only aro the conditions varied in tho extreme, but much more severe than thoso prevail ing east of the Rocky mountain pla teaus and the demund for any particu lar typo of plow is limited. Neither Machinery nor agriculture Is standard ized. It is thoreforo difficult to Inter est eastern manufacturers In provid ing plows fully adapted to our local needs. Tho samo conditions discour age tho establishment of factories on tho western coast, although many cir cumstances aro favorable. Buildings aro cheaper than in tho east nnd labor often as cheap. Crude oil furnishes cheap fuel and freight rates on raw material from eastern mines arc less than on finished products. Only local manufacture or closer study by east ern makers will result In plows satis factory for every condition. Tho plows must bo mado heavier, stronger, Df better material and more Bimplo. The sand and gravel in tho soil call for chilled, rather than soft center, steel In plow bottoms, and In dry lnnd tho disk plow Is popular. It allows plowing to bo dono in tho fall. The pumice in volcanic ash soils necessi tates the uso of a chilled plow. Tho soil is more easily pulverized, hence a lower, straighter and less sarply corved moldboard Is used than in tho heavy soils. Prairie breakers aro not extensively used. SOUND ADVICE ABOUT SHEEP Good Ewe Will Prove Serviceable for Eight Yearn Earlv-Sowed Rye Makes Good Pasture. Sheep may bo bred at Ifi months of age, and a good ewo will prove nil right for seven or eight years. I havo kept them longer, writes D. J. Phillips In Practical Farmer, but only when their qualities were beyond par. One good ram, if kept separate from tho ewes, may bo brod to seventy-flvo ewes, butr the lambs will bo stronger If less service Is required. Tho Downs or Iyclcestors. as well nn the Cotswolds, give good results crossed with tho ordinary owes. Early-sowed rye makes an excellent apilng pasture for sheep. Sheep can no more thrlvo without care, feed, water and shelter than any other farm anlmnl. Straw sheds or one mado of cedars, will bo sufficient un til lambing time Is near, then good, warm sheds must bo provided for early lambs. Tho weak ones must be helped up. If tho mother refuses to own them, milk a bit of her milk on tho disowned offspring's head and she will give no furthor trouble. A little care, forethought nnd prepara tion will moan dollurs In tho pocket and Increased flock of slienp In tho field. Feed Regulates Flavor. There Is no foundation for the as sertion that the sweet, rich flavor of the egg bolongs to the breed. That condition can only bo brought about by tho quality of tho feed. S The Holy Spirit By RtV. JAMES M. GRAY, D.D. Dun et the Mealy D.U tiutitute CJiicnjo TEXT "llao ye received tlip Holy Ohost bIhco ye bolloyod?" Acts XIX, 2. Paul met cer tain disciples In Ephcsus whom at first ho supposed to bo Christian disciples, but in whoBo testimony tlioro was that which led to tho inquiry, "Havo yo received the Holy Ohost since ye believed?" It Ib evident, therefore, from theso words and from tho se quel that it Is one th I lis to ho a dis ciple, and another thing to "receive tho Holy Ghost." This brings up tho wholo question as to the relation of tho Holy Spirit to tho disciple, or tho believer in Christ. 1. Tho personality of tho Holy Spirit. Wo Bhould keep In mind that tho Holy Spirit Ib a dlvlno person. Personality' consists In sclf-couBcIous-ness and free will, and that tho Holy Spirit possesses personality In this sensu is evident from thrco things: (a) Ho has tho attributes of person ality; (b) Ho does tho works of a per sonality; (c) Ho has tho nniues of a personality. Speaking of his at tributes, there is ono which, moro than any other, helps to a realization of his personality. Ills attrlbuto of love, which is referred to only In Itomans 15:30. Do you know that the Holy Spirit loves you, as n, bellovor In Christ, with a lovo In somo sciibo dis tinct from that either of tho Futher or tho Son? How mnrvelously near that brings him to our hearts! Tbo Father's lovo manifested Itself In tho giving of his Sou; tho Son's lovo in thq offering of himself upon tho cross, and thu Holy Spirit's love In taking up Ills abode in us. 2. Tho Indwelling of the Holy Spirit. This brings us to tho second thought, viz., the Indwelling of tho Holy Spirit. That Indwelling was promised In John 11:16-17. Ho had dwelt "with" thodls clples thoreforo, but ho was to dwell "In them" by and by. Ho had been as a power acting on them from with out, but thereafter ho wus to Influ ence them from within. Tho prom ise was renewed again In Acts 1:4-5, where tho Indwelling was spoken cf as tho "baptism" of tho Holy Spirit. The realization came on the day of Pentecost, when tho dis ciples wore indwelt, baptized and in filled with tho Holy Spirit at ono and the samo time. This transaction, however, as far as the first two terms aro concern ed, was not limited to the church as sembled on that day, but applies to tho whole church since. Such would seom to bo 'suggested by I. Corin thians, 12:12-14, whero 20 years after Pentecost wo aro taught that as be lievers "wo were all baptized by one Spirit Into ono body." What "body" Is means If not tho body of Christ, tho church? And what "baptism" if not that "one baptism" on tho day of Pen tecost? 3. Tho filing of the Holy Spirit But while tho first two terms of that transaction on tho day of Pentecost, tho indwelling and tho baptism (which uro ono) woro for the wholo church potentially, nnd for all time, yet tho same does not npply to tho third, tho filling of tho Holy Spirit. There Is but ono indwelling, but man fillings Wo gather this from Acts 5:31, whoro tho sumo persons who woro "filled ' on tho day of Pentecost were re filled on n subsequent occasion. And Again, In Acts fl, when men are to bo chosen to tho office of deacon it must he by thoso who aro "full of the Holy Spirit," as If somo woro Uiub spiritunlly equipped while others were not It Is Bomethlng corresponding to thlB, therefore, which Paul has In mind In our text, when ho said: "Have ye received the Holy Ohost slnco yo belioved?" The reception of tho Holy Ghost on their part resulted In an en duemont of power, but In other places of tho Acts, notably tho fourth chap tor, It Ib seen to havo resulted not only In tho spirit of power, but of unity and lovo. It Is khls that wo min isters, evangelists nnd Christian work ers need and that tho whole church needs in order to accomplish hor mis sion for Jesus Christ on earth. How may tho fillings of tho Holy Spirit bo recoived by tho believer on the Lord Jcbub Christ? Prayer, obe dience and faith seem to bo tho only conditions, if they may bo called con ditions. Speaking of faith, there is n senso in which the gift of tho Holy Spirit, I. o., tho filling of tho Holy Spirit, should bo recoived by as defi nite nn uct on our part as that by which we laid hold of mil vat ion through-Jesus Christ; but this t.iltb Is not likely to bo experlencen whero obedience Is not present. "God gni-th tlio Holy Ciliobt to them that oljoy him," Pter says (Acts V.). and this agrees p rfectly with tho teaching of tho Old Tehtarnont in Provoibi; I : "Turn ye at my roproof, bi-liold, I will pour out my spirit unto you." Nor is this obedience merely occasional with some groat thing, hut it Is to ho ubual and common in the little tilings. REALLY A SOUND INVESTMENT Sanatorium Where the Tuberculosis May De Cured Is Worth Much to Any State or City. Dr. II. L. Ilnrncs, superintendent of tho Hhodo Island State sanatorium, has recently domoiiBtrntcd by somo in teresting studies of patients discharg ed as "apparently cured" from that In stitution, that n sanatorium Is a sound Investment for any state or city. Tho gross earnings of 170 ox-patlents ob tained In 11)11 amounted to $102,752, and thoBo of 211 easos In 1012 to f 112. 021. Ily applying tho snmo nvorngp enmlng to nil ox-pntlonts of tho sana torium living In 1911 nnd 1912, Dr. Barnes concludes that their Income In theso two years was $551,000. This sum Is moro than three times tho cost of maintenance of tho sanatorium In cluding Interest nt 4 per cont. on tho orlginnl Investment nnd depreciation charges. Dr. Barnes concludes, how ever, "Whllo Institutions for tho euro of tuberculosis are good Investments, there Is good reason for thinking that Institutions for tho Isolation of far ad vanced cases would bo still better In estments." HANDS ITCHED AND BURNED Abhotsford, Wis. "My son had oo eemn on. bis hands for about ono year. Tho eczoffia Btnrted with a rash.
