Accor ingly, it is not claimed (hat Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it cleanses, •weetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acts without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objection able substances.

The readers of this paper will be pleated to learn that there Is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure In all its stages, and that Is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the onlv positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh •Cure Is taken Internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby deatroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up tho constitution and assist ing nature in doing its work. The proprie tors have so much faith in Its curative pow ers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it falls to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address F. J.

Two old cronies met the other day and began discussing some of their mutual acquaintances. The conversa tion turned to Farmer Macdonald. "Him!” contemptuously exclaimed crony No. 2, who had never heard any thing very mean laid to the farmer’s charge. "Well. It’s like this.” answered Don ald. "Ten years ago he sent his son out wl' a tin bucket to milk the cow. The son and the bucket dtdna come back, and nothing was heard about the lad until the tther morning, when he knocked at his father's door. As a peace offering he brocht the auld man a suit of claes, a gold watch and a god gray mare” "Then," Interrupted crony No. 2, "I suppose Macdonald wad kill the fatted calf?" "Not he,” was the reply. “He said, ‘Lad, they things will do very weel, but where’s the tin bucket that you took awa wl* you ?’ ” The total value of farm products In the Chitted States for the past year was $7.000,000—about double that of 1900.

It is as bad In Its way as adulterations In the white lead. Petroleum oil cheapeners may be detected by placing a drop of the oil on a black painted surface. If one sees the characteristic Iridescence or play of colors which kerosene exhibits, it Is evidence of adulteration. Corn and fish oil can be detected by the smell. Adulteration in white lead can best be discovered by the use of a blow pipe, which National Lead Company will send with instructions free to anyone interested in paint.

The fertility of the soli is the farm ers' asset, and to continue to crop land without returning anything to keep up the supply of humus will soon exhaust it, and It Will fail to produce a crop. Keeping stock and applying manure to the land is the safest and best method of maintaining fertility, and yet there are wasteful methods of handling the manure. To throw the manure out in the barnyard where the drippings from the eaves and the rains will wash It and carry much of the fertilizing ele ments Into the i.rooks and creeks is a wasteful practice). To have It spread out in the yard all summer where it will lose by evaporation and washing is another poor practice. To apply a heavy coat on a field and then wait five or six years is also a wasteful method, as It is better to apply a light coat of ten, and then the soil can utilize it, while a heavy coat cannot be "di gested” all at once, and consequently some must be wasted. A light coat of manure applied every two years will maintain the fertility of the soli and good crops can be secured continuous ly. Spread thinly and often Is the safest rule.

The day was rainy, and the old fellow was soaked through when he drove up to the house. Mrs. Brown (with sympathy)—Why, Hamilton, you must be wet. Hamilton (shivering)—Ye-es, ma’am. Mrs. Brown—Aren't you afraid you’ll take cold, Hamilton? Hamilton—Ye-es, ma'am; rheumatiz pretty bad, ma'am. Mrs. Brown—Don't you ever take something when you get soaked through, Hamilton? Hamilton (eagerly) — Ye-es, ma’am. (Rubs the back of his hand across his mouth.) Mrs. Brown—Well, here are four two grain quinine pills, Hamilton, take them as soon as you get home.

Harris, the Kansas states man, live stock breeder and farmer says: "I have been impressed by some of the tremendous mistakes that have been made In this Country. As a boy I was familiar with the tidewater part of Virginia. There they farmed in an early day, making tobacco the leading crop. There never was any live stock industry in those days. And when we go into the other states of the south we see there the worn scarred hill sides, the result of the one crop—cot ton. This is a sad spectacle. That land can hardly be brought back to Its original fertility in a generation. The west should learn the lesson that one crop farming is a poor subterfuge for getting along in the world." This woman says that after months of suffering Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound made her as well as ever. Maude E. Forgie, of Leesburg,Va, writes to Mrs. Pinkham: “ 1 want other suffering women to know what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound has done for me. For months 1 suffered from feminine ills so that I thought I could not lire. I wrote you, and after taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and using the treatment you prescribed I felt like a new woman. I am now strong, and well as ever, and thank yon for the good you hare done me.” FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN.

She sent the following telegram: “Isaiah. 9-6,” which being Interpreted, read, “For unto us a child Is born, unto us a son is given.” The friend, more literal and less fa miliar with the Prophets, read the mes sage, and said to her husband, "Mar- | garet has a boy, but why on earth did : she name him Isaiah? He must be a healthy chap, though, for he weighs 9 pounds and 6 ounces." 80 BUSHELS OF OATS TO THE ACHE. What Mr. Kalteabranirr Has to Say About His Grata Crops In Central Canada.

The half section which we own adjoins the Moose Jaw Creek; Is a low. level and heavy land. We put In TO acres of wheat in stubble, which went 20 bushels to the acre, and 30 acres of summer fallow, which went 25 bushels to the acre. All the wheat we harvest ed this year is No. 1 hard. That means the best wheat that can be raised tin the earth. We did not sell any wheat yet, as we Intend to keep one part for our own seed, and sell the oilier part to people who want first class seed, for there is uo doubt if you sow good wheat you will harvest good wheat. We also threshed 0,000 bushels of first class oats out of 100 acres; 80 acres has been fall plowing, which yielded UO bushels per acre, and 80 acres stubble, which went 30 bushels to the acre. These oats are the best kind that can be raised. We have shipped three car loads of them, and got 53 cents per bushel clear. All our grain was cut in the last week of the month of Au gust before any frost could touch It.
