duced by poorly digested food The nature of the hog and his manner of eating renders him more susceptible of intestin al worms than any other animal Under the present domestic ated conditions he is not allowed the use of his natural in stincts to obtain the necessary element that would destroy these intestinal parasites Being shut up in a pen he is not allowed to follow the dictates of his nature The hog that is wormy can neither grow nor thrive for the reason that the worms destroy all the effects of the nutrition furnished in the feed Liquid Koal put in the drinking water in the

pigsies are a tribe of elves peculiar to old Cornwall a territory once extending to the eastern edge of Dartmoor which is still in cluded in the duchy They are not ele mentary spirits but in material life -were those of the Celtic tribes who re fused to give up their ancient religion for Christianity but otherwise lived blameless hence their sympathy -with humanity Not good enough for heaven nor bad enough for hell their wander ing souls were permitted to remain on earth haunting their own familial moorlands wooded ooombes and waste seabeaches In early May and during the reign of the harvest moon they are active in revel but their chief festival of the year is held on midsummer eve With the passing of many centuries they have greatly shrunken in size and are now indistinguishable by daylight from aunts moths or butterflies except by those Intimately acquainted with theii appearance A troop of these sprites was beheld of late years by one whe had the gift of such sight on a sunny hillside one brilliant summer after noon They were dancing amid the heather bells climbing tall foxgloves tumbling queer somersaults cutting fantastic capers and as the Cornish saying runs laughing like a pisky This shows them to be a merry race Apparently they are gradually becom ing converted to Christianity for on Christmas eve they assemble in the deepest mines to celebrate the holy sea son when solemn entrancing music may be heard and choirs of unearthly voices chanting Xowell Nowell They are tricksy elves skilled in gla mour and illusion A favorite deceit of theirs is enticing the lonely night traveler into bogs by appearing like the ligh u a cottage window or a man walking with a lantern across ground where no human foot can tread in safety They steal pretty babies from their cradles leaving ugly changelings in their places If spoken of disrespectfully or even mentioned by name they take violent offense Hence they are called tho others the small people in green or the good

into the fire and was burned severely a convincing proof that these elves must not be trifled with At Treonike a small hamlet in St Austell parish a boy was once be guiled away from his home lost for many days and finally after all hope of finding him had been given up he was one morning discovered fast asleep on a tuft of bracken hard by his fathers cottage door His own story ran that he had been playing near that spot on the day of his disap pearance when he heard most exqui site music in the air At first he mistook this for bird songs but soon realized that the little people must be the unseen musicians Following the sounds he easily pene trated a thicket whose depths he had never before succeeded in entering for some invisible guide smoothed the un dergrowth in his path while causing thorns and briers to spring up closer and more matted than formerly be hind him and on either hand Also the music became more and more ravish ing At last he found himself upon the shore of a small lake which to his sur prise reflected the sky thick with stars though it had been full noontide on the common but a short time earlier Then a lovely lady came through the dark ness took him by the hand and led linn about underground palaces with crystal arches glowing with changing tints far finer than any caverns in the deepest mine There he saw many marvelous sights feasted on dainties he had never tasted in his life before gamboled or con versed with troops of merry play mates all beautifully dressed in greeiii At last he fell asleep from sheer weari ness and awoke in the spot where he had first heard the pisky minstrels The Gump a knoll near St Just is a noted spot for pisky revels Many worthy folks have been privileged to witness their feasts in a spirit of friendliness and

the war with Germany in 1870 The troops were recalled from Africa to take part in the conflict that was going on against France and Algeria was left almost defenseless The hour for which the conquered races had long waited had come and if a holy war had been proclaimed it is probable that the French would have been driven from northern Africa But the tribes did not rise while the French had their hands full on the other side of the Mediterranean and the fact was due to their fidelity to a solemn pledge When the- war broke out a chief of great influence among the tribes Mo krani gave his word to the governor general of Algeria that there should be no insurrection while the war lasted That word was faithfully kept Disas ter after disaster followed the French arms The defeats of the war cul minated in the surrender of Paris But not a man of the tribes of Kabylia stirred The Moslems faith was plighted the Moslems faith was kept wnen fiowever the last battle had been fought and the treaty of peace signed Mokrani then released from his word gave the governor general notice that in forty eight hours he would declare war The French armies released from duty at home hurried across the Mediterranean The end was inevitable that all was lost put himself at the head of his warriors and fell fighting in the front rank The French erected a monument to mark the spot where their noble

Principal Office Sheldon Iowa Branches Minneapolis Minnesota Glendive Montana Lewiston Idaho York Nebraska Oklahoma Oklahoma Hog Cholera is a free germ disease the germ being first found in the ali mentary canal and as long as it is kept in that organ it is comparatively harmless When however it penetrates to the ungs liver and other organs it causes fermentation in flammation and destruction of live tissues furnishing food upon which it thrives and multiplies with rapidity in some cases a generation an hour causing death to the animal before the owner has discovered that it was diseased Thus through reasoning two facts stand out clearly First that hog cholera can not be treated successfully unless treatment is commenced before the germ has reached the period of rapid multiplication Second that a germicide must be administered and therein lies the whole secret As we pass down through the list of various germicides we are com pelled one after another to reject them either because of inefficacy or inadaptability until we reach LIQUID KOAL And why choose LIQUID KOAL Because it is the only known germicide that will pass through the stomach to the intestines and from there to the blood permeating the en tire system and still retain its germicide properties It is a compound embracing every practical germicide anticeptic and disinfectant property found in coal treated chemically with an alkaline base until every objectional fea ture is eliminated being non poisonous and harmless to ani mal economy It contains creosol and quiacol It is these hydro carbon compounds found in smoke that cure a ham destroying by their germicidal properties all germ life The reader may ask if these properties come from coal why not use coal The answer is because coal yields those properties only by distillation at about 350 degrees of heat and it is reasonable to assume that a hogs stomach could not generate that amount of heat without becoming roast pork seasoned with fried germs We would also call the readers attention to the fact that the gastric juice of the stomach being an acid an alkali is re quired as a neutralizer when the acid too strongly predom inates as in the case of hog cholera In addition it would be expensive as the owner of the animal would be purchas ing six dollars worth of coal to obtain one dollars worth of Liquid Koal LIQUID KOAL is in general use by veterinary surgeons throughout the whole country embodying a wider range of use than any other preparation known to science MCOOK N 1 JLJ Ae KTOfrv lQQQSSSQS utp Jt C L WALKER The Uptodate Painter and
