Greatly Desired Lady.
It'would appear from bits of the so
cial gossip of her day that Miss Bur
dett-Coutts’ nearest approach to an
occupation was refusing offers of
marriage. It is stated that the name
of the "Prince of Adventurers” was
connected with hers; that she re
fused the duke of Wellington and a
score of lesser gentlemen.
For years the great heiress was the
most glittering matrimonial prize in
England, and when at last she con
-1 sented to change her condition by
marrying an American, a London club
wit struck a responsive chord by ob
serving, "I don’t blame Ashmead Bart
lett for proposing to the baroness.
I’ve done it myself. I regard it as a
duty every Englishman owes to his
family.”—"lntimate Memoirs of Napo

CLOSET IS OF NO ADVANTAGE
Actual Test Demonstrates Poultry Do
Better Without Curtain —Found to
Be Unnecessary.
In the curtain-front type of poultry
house used at the Maine experiment
station a feature of the original plan
Ai which considerable stress was laid
was the canvas curtain in front of the
roosts.
This curtain, together,with the back
wall of the house and the droppings
board under the roosts formed a closet
in which the birds were shut up at
night during cold weather. When the
curtain front house was first devised.it
was thought essential to provide such
a closet to conserve the body heat of
the birds during the cold nights when
the temperature might go well below
zero. Experience has showi}, how
ever, that this was a mistake. Act
ual test shows that the roosting clos
et is of no advantage, even in such a
severe climate as that of Orono. On
the contrary, the birds certainly thrive
better without the roost curtain than
with it. It has been a general ob
servation among users of the curtain
front type of house that when the
roost curtains are used the birds are
particularly susceptible to colds. It is
not hard to understand why this
should be so. The air in a roosting
closet when it is opened in the morn
ing is plainly bad. The fact that it is
warm in no way offsets physiologically
the evils of its lack of oxygen and ex
cess of carbon dioxid, ammoniacal va
pors and other exhalations from the
bodies of the birds.
For some time past it has been felt
that the roosting closet was at least
unnecessary, if not in fact a positive
evil, says a writer in the Baltimore
American. Consequently the time of
beginning to close the roost curtain in
the fall has been each year longer de
layed. Finally, in the fall of 1910, it
was decided not to use these curtains
at all during the winter. Consequent
ly they were taken out of the house,
or spiked to the roof, as the case
might be. The winter of 1910-11 was
a severe one. On several occasions the
temperature dropped to 30 degrees be
low zero. Yet during this winter the
mortality was exceptionally low and
the egg production exceptionally high.
In view of this experience the sta
tion has decided to discontinue the
use of the roost curtain. It would
seem to be generally understood or at
least unnecessary.

FALLASLEEP
During Ordinary Conversation,
and Became Breathless After
First Few Words.
Westhoff, Texas.—Mrs. Evie L.
Powell, of this town, authorizes the
following for publication: “I had ter
ribly nervous, trembling, and smoth
ering spells, and became so weak, I
could hardly get around. Would al-.
most fall asleep during a common con-1
versation, and became breathless after
the first dozen words.
I thought I had lung trouble, but
found it was all caused from womanly
weakness.
I then commenced using Cardui, the
woman’s tonic, and the first bottle
gave me relief. Am now feeling fine,
and just as wide awake, and as lively
as anyone.
I know I would have been a wreck
had it not been for Cardui, and I do
not think enough can be said in favor
of this great woman's medicine. I
gained more strength from one bottle
than anything else I ever tried. I rec
ommend it to all women or girls who
are without the glow of health on
their cheeks.”
These nervous, trembly, smothering
spells, which Mrs. Powell describes,
are very common symptoms of wom
anly trouble, and should be given the
proper treatment to prevent a general
breakdown.
For over fifty years, Cardui, the
woman’s tonic, has been building up
weak, nervous women to strength and
health. It will do the same for you, if
given a fair trial.

Poor Charities.
There are charity societies, as all
the world knows, that only give to the
poor a quarter or a half cent of every
dollar they take in, most of their sub
scriptions going for salaries to offi
cers and investigators for expensive
rentals, etc.
Richard March, the charity expert
of Denver, Colo., was condemning
th^se charities. He said:
"A man’s wife shouted up to him
the other day:
“ ‘Don’t you think this blue over
coat with the strapped-in back is too
new and fashionable, George, to give
away?’ z -
“ ‘lt’s the agent of the Alpha Incor
porated Charities that’s at the door,
isn't it?’
“ 'Yes, dear.’
“ ’Then let the Meat go,’ said George.
’lt’ll be old enough and old-fashioned
enough before it gets to the poor dub
that is shivering for it now.’ ”

SATISFIED WITH HIS BARGAIN
Dramatic Press Agent Had Confidence
in Barber for Somewhat
Peculiar Reason.
Frank P. Morse, dramatic press .
agent, met Ralph A. Graves, the dra
matic critic, in New York one morn
ing. They went down to a barber
shop.
Graves heard Morse talking to the
barber, whose voice indicated that he
was at least eight feet tall and in the
best of health.
"Now,” said the barber, "your hair’s
falling out. What you want to do is to
have it shingled and singed and then
treated with crude oil, ending up with
an electric massage and a few other
jolts.”
Morse, who has a suit of hair like a
cluster of copper wire, inquired as to
the cost.
"One dollar and ninety cents,” re
plied the barber.
"Proceed,” said Morse, settling
back.
When Graves got out of the chair 1
and took a look at Morse’s barber he
rushed over to the victim’s chair.
"Why, Frank,” he expostulated, '
“that man who’s treating your hair is j
as bald as an egg and you’re throwing '
away a dollar and ninety cents.”
“Is he bald?” asked Morse dreamily^
“Not a hair on his head," replied
Graves.
“Well,” explained the victim, gently,
"that's why he knows how not to make
my hair fall out.”—Popular Magazine.
Didn't Impress Farmer.
An altercation arose between a
i farmer and a so-called expert in agri
culture.
"Sir," said the expert, “do you real- '
ize that I have been at two univer
sities, one in this country and one in !
Germany?”
"What of that?” demanded the
farmer, with a faint smile. "I had a
calf nursed by two cows, and the
mere he was nursed the greater calf
he grew.”

What is Woman’s
Beauty but Health ?
And the Basis of Her Health • and
Vigor Lies in the Careful Reg
ulation of the Bowels.
If woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a
picture of loveliness. But. beauty lies
deeper than that. It lies in health. In
the majority of cases the basis of
health, and the cause, of sickness, can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
it is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re
quirements, is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of women en
dorse highly, among them Mrs. C. S.
Vance, of 511 S. Ray St., New Castle,
Pa. At times she had spells of indi
gestion so severe that she thought she
’would die. Syrup Pepsin regulated her
stomach and bowels; and she attrib
utes her excellent health today to this
remedy.
All the family can use Dr. Caldwell’s
Syrup Pepsin, for thousands of moth
ers give it to babies and children. It
is also admirably suited to the require
ments of elderly people, in fact to all
who by reason of age or infirmity can
not stand harsh salts, cathartics, pills
or purgatives. These should always be
