turpentine under a new process from
old stumps, etc., was erected here

Don’t Walt Too Long.
Too many people keep the flowers
they bare plucked tor you until the
clay of your funeral. Their songs of
praise are not heard uutil your pre
cession is passing their door. Th
mantle of charity does not become
public property until put in use* by
the preacher who concludes the ’Mast
sad rites.’’ Jf a man has flowers for
mo I want them while I am on earth
and can smell their fragrance. They
will do pie no good sitting at th'*
head of my coffin. The grass that is
kept green about my last resting place
will bo of little avail to me on the oth
er shore. Here is where I need the
flowers and the smiles and the praise,
not over there. If the follow who is
going to go around to the house after
I am gone to see “if be can bo of any
help’’ will come around tomorrow I
can tell him how ho can be of a whole
lot of help. There will bo plenty of
them. It is all-fired short now. Carry
your flowercs to the living and sing
your songs of praise at the dinner ta
ble. Don't wait for the funeral.—Os
borne (O'.) Farmer.
Grave Trouble Foreseen.
It needs but little foresight to tell
that whop your stomach and liver are
badly affected grave trouble is ahead,
unless you take the proper medicine
for your disease, as Mrs. John
Young, of Clay, N. Y., did. 1 She says:
"I had neuralgia of the liver and
stomach, my heart was weakened, and
I could not eat I was very bad for
a long time, but in Electric Bitters I
found Just what I needed, for they
quickly relieved and cured me.’’ Best
medicine for weak women. 8old un

Hyomel Cures Catarrh by Simple

Tie folly of taking medicine Into
the stomach to euro catarrh of tho

Fraud Exposed.
A few counterfeiters have lately
been making and trying to sell Imi
tations of Dr. King’s New iDscovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds,
and other medicines, thereby defraud
ing the public. This Is to warn you
to beware of such people, who seek
to profit through stealing the reputa
tion of remedloa which have been suc
cessfully curing disease for over 25
years. A sure protection to you is
our name on the wrapper. Look for
it on all Dr. King’s or Bucklen’s
remedies, as all others are mere imi
tations. H. E. Buckles A Co., Chica

Don't Let Your Ambition Cool.
Tho idea acorns to be pretty gen
oral that ambition is born In us, that
wo have little or nothing to do with
Its acquisition or cultivation, and that
we cannot modify, enlarge, stimulate
or Improvo It to any great extent. A
study of life does not confirm tho Idea.
That the ambition is a cultivatnblc
quality, capable of being molded or
destroyed according as we will,
demonstrated every day in the lives
of thoso about us. We see people In
whom tho spark of ambition Is kin
dled suddenly by the reading of a
book, tho hearing of a lecture or the
sneaking of a kindly word by a friend
or teacher, and, on the othor hand,
we see those who allow their ambi
tion slowly to die out for want of fuel.
The death of ambition Is one of the
tragedies of life. When a young man*
feels his ambition begin to fade there
is trouble aomowhore. Either ho Is
In tho wrong environment and fits fac
ulties protest against what he la try
ing to do, or aomo vicious habit is
draining his energy, or his health is
poor, or he Is being led Into dissipa
tion by bad companions. A youth
w hoso ambition begins to wano Is pot
in a normal condition. When ho Is
not stimulated by a nobio purpose,
and filled with a desire to become a
ntrong man among men, there Is some
thing wrong somewhere.—Success.
Poisons In Food.
Perhaps you don't realize that many
pain poisons originate In your food,
but at le day you may feel a twinge
of dyspepsia that will convince you.
Dr. King's New Ufe Pills are guaran
teed to cure all alckneas due to poi
sons of undigested food—or mony
back. 15c at A. E. D Unmock's and
W. D. Dunaway's drug stores. Try
them.
Practical Poultry Hints.
A broody hen spoils a fertile egg
for table purposes by sitting on it
for a few hours only, so collect your
eggs regularly.
Vinegar diluted In warm water is
the best liquid to clean stained eggs.
Brown-shelled eggs are no richer
than white ones, but thoso who prefer
tinted shells shpuld immerse their
eggs for an hour in strong tea water.
Preserve your eggs in water glass
when the market price is less than
fifteen for a shilling.
Tho egg yield from ten or twelve
henH ranging over an acre of grass
land will far more than pay the rent
of lt and so leave the herbage rent
free to your dairy stock.
Fowls much Improve the character
of the stubble land over which they
range.
Feed your fowls upon clean ground,
not upon muddy yards and roadways,
where much is. trodden under foot.
Don’t forget tho Importance of dis
tributing your fowls over vour land
In small flocks of twenty or thirty
head, rather than crowding too many
together.
It is early-hatched chickens that
come on to lay during tho following
autumn and winter, when eggs are
scarce and dear.
Replace one-third of your laying
hens every year, so as to keep your
stock young.
Feed and kill off your cockerels
when about four months old.
Don’t forget the importance of
feeding young chickens early, late
and often; and dry food is far bet
ter than moist, such as crushed grain,
stale bread and coarse buscult meal.
Feed up your chickens for a week
or ten days before marketing them.
Skinny, half-fed fowls never fetch a
remunerative price.
Early spring and summer chickens
always command a far better price
than months later.
Deaf Are Never Seasick.
“Strange thing, but ti'o you know
that deaf persons can never get sea
sick?' said an old surgetra In the em
ploy of one of the local frans-Atlantlc
lines recently. “This was found out,
he said, “when a whole class of deaf
routes went abroad some years ago,
and, despite a particularly rough pas
sage, none of them wanted to lie on
the deck and beg somebody to heave
them overboard. 4'
“That’s the seasick feeling, you
know. A little inveatlgatlon proved
that the stomach nerves are mostly
controlled by those of the ear, aad
that deaf persons are not nearly
liable to the nausea that comes from
the rolling motion of a ship as are
others.
“The experiment of saturating
ball of cotton with cocaine and thus
dulling the hearing has been tried by
ship surgeons since. It gives relief
to those who dread any sort of a sea
voyage, but, after all, the best way
to do is to ’feed the fishes’ and get
over it.’*—Philadelphia Press.
