The Boy of Dreams
Will be
A 'I'lue Mini
If you chide a child for day
lug, you may be acting wisely, but
you may also be making a mistake.
Dreams are not alt idle. Every great
achievement is a dream come true.
Every doer of great deeds has first
dreamer of those deeds. The child
with dream filled eyes will probably
become the man or "mnan with hands
and hours filled with performances.
The dream stage seems to be as in
evitable a stage of promising child
hood as measles or croup—a nuisance,
but a necessary one.
Day dreams are the processes of
evolving, out of a nebula of desires,
some fixed star of ambition. Often
day dreaming is a state not to be
dream-1 despised, but to be encouraged. The
child who, tired of riynp and book and
companions, lies on' his back in the
grass long midsummer days, his
nands behind his head and his half-
clostd eyes following some drifting
cloud, is not s mere time waster, t'n-
ier the tcusoltd head, behind the
■unburned forehead, thoughts pro
roeusing into purposes. Drifting ideas
i e becoming fixed ideas. He is prac
ticing the always useful art of con
centration.
Every great or brilliant act has
ueen preceded by some hour of re
flection. The real deed is the resolu
tion made in the hour nlone—the
hour of consideration, of decision, of past eleven
real daring. The act that the wcrld
npplauds is merely the epilogue of the
mental drama.
Children if permitted to follow
freely their bent show two propensi
ties. Most of them are examples of
constant progression , in noise and
action. A few keep their noses be
tween the covers of hooks.
The child that is led to become a
pendulum swinging between these ex
tremes. and stopping midway for a
little time fer original thought, is the
one who wil develop into the normal
and useful citizen.
It was a wise question the old
Quakeress put to her grandchild who
showed her a schedule of daily per
formances. “At nine 1 study geo
graphy; at half past nine, recite it.
Tt n is the grammar period. At eleven,
arithmetic. Then recess. At half
1 practise my drawing.

Then I lunch with mamma, and—”
“Yes. dear." The Quakeress had
listened gravely to the careful sched
ule of this scientifically reared child.
“1 understand; but tell me, when
does thee think?"
Every child, ns every adult, should
have some time alone to think—the
hour for that, kind of day dreams
that hear fruit In action.
William MeAdoo, wno linked New
Ycik and New Jersey by what had
long been counted impossible—a rail
road through a tunnel under the Hud-
sen river—is a man not at all of the
type the phrase "a man of action"
summons to our minds.
A tall, thin man of slow movements
and laggard speech, with strong fea
tures, but the eyes of n dreamer of
dreams, is this man who has perform
ed so tremendous a service for his
city and his time. Wide open, con
templatlve, far-seeing eyes he has—
eyes that see opportunities through
the veil of failure; eyes that see far
ther than those we ascribe to the
“keen-witted man," "the man of
prompt action.”
A relative of his told me that the
deed that excited unlmpassloned New
York and that rendered New Jersey
wild with joy was the result of a 12-
year-old dream of this dream-eyed
man.
"Will was always a day dreamer,”
said the relative. “He would spend
hours thinking of heaven knows what.
If we called him to carry a pall of
water or to take the cows out to pas
ture In tin- old home down South, he
would obey If he heard, but he was
pretty sure not to hear.
"He has heard hundreds of times
the words, Will, you are the laziest
boy in the state,' but lie only snjlled
I amiably, because lie knew bettter.
| We used lo call those periods of pro-
I occupation Will's trances.’ When we
[asked him what ho had been doing
he would answer ,'Thinking.'
'One active member of the family
always answered contemptuously,
•Thinking! Can't you find anything
better to do than think?"
1 I don't believe 1 can, for the pres
ent.' lie answered, with his smile.
'Hut what do you think about?'* ‘Of
what I shall do after a while,' b* al
ways replied.
"After a while he left homo, and
we hoard that he had undertaken to
finance a street railroad deul in Ken-
lucky. Nothing came of that, and
tlie active relative said, 'You see Will
is a day dreamer. He should be more
practical.’
"He went to New York. A cousin
of his, a cub reporter, was assign'd
to visit 'the tunnel of broken hearts
and hopes' beneath the Hudson. Will
read his story. He thought about It
for u day or two, then he hunted up
liis cousin. ‘Dot's finish that tunnel
you wrote about,’ said he. 'Dream
ing again, Will?' said the cousin. 'I
mn a practical moil. I want results."
'So do 1," said Will. 'Then you won’t
go In?' ‘No.
The child who sits on the doorstep
of the old home and dreams appar
ently Idle dreams, sometimes comes
back ard sits on the old doorstep
again, after many years, and reviews
big deeds ttiat have grown from those
little day dreams.
There is nothing that will pay a
better interest on the money Invested
than a bone , cutter for cutting fresh
bones from the butcher shop fine
enough for the chicken to eat. In
many places the bone can be procured
for tno taking away, at most it costs
but about two to three cents per
pound. The hens relish It beyond
anything you can feed them, and the
result in iggs is all that could he de
sired, and. too, it takes the place of
just that amount of other feed. For
the growing chicks, after they are a
month old, nothing quite equals cut
bone. A machine suitable for cutt
ing for a flock of from 50 to JDO fowls
can be had at about $30.00; larger
sizes, $12.00 to $25.00. Care must tic
exercised when you commence to feed
it either to hens of young stock. Feed
in small quantities at first, about
three times per week, Increasing the
amount ard frequently as they be
come accustomed to it.
You who anticipate hatching out a
good lot of early chicks should spare
no pains now in getting your breed
ers In the best possible condition so
that a lit tie later on when you ex
pect them to be doing their duty they
will not disappoint you. if you have
any changes of location to make, do
not wait until they are laying stead
ily; If you do, the change will cause
them to quit—sometimes for days and
even weeks.
Do not alio:.' that loathsome dis
ease scaley leg to get u start with
your flock. It Is a burden on Hie
fowl, to say the least, and anything
that is a burden detracts from a hen's
usefuness. II Is Infectious, although
It may he slow In Its operations. It
Is a disease that there Is no excuse
for on any well-regulated place.
Where it makes its appearance it cun
be easily treated with kerosense oil.
Take a tomato can about two-thirds
full of the oil and nail tt to (lie wall
of your poultry house; after the fowls
hnve gone to roost take the affected
ones and dip their shanks Into the
oil up to the feathers, using care not
to get tt on to the feathered portion
as It will cause the feathers to come
off. This should he done twice a
week for at least three weeks, or un
til the scales clean off. After this rub
a little beef tallow on the tender leg
and tt will soon heal over and be
come smooth. Of course a leg that
has been very much affected will
never look as bright and smooth as It
was at first.
Look over your hens and dispose of
those that are really nut of commis
sion. Tick out tho blind, (ho lame
and the hall; kill and use them or
sell them for what they are worth.
On ninny a farm there are hens that,
judging from their legs and spurs,
are almost old enough to vole. We
think we near the farmers smiling all
about ns. Yes. you know wo are
about right. All these old cripples
are but a burden on your imeketbook,
for they will not begin to pay fur
their keep.

Nat a medicine to upset your system, but simply a tablet which when dis
solved in water makes a wonderful clennsing, soothing, and healing antiseptic,
which is especially adapted to the delicate membrane linings of the NOSE and
THROAT and when used with the glass nasal douche, which we supply, or as a
gargle, will immediately remove the mucus by thoroughly cleansing the breath
ing passages to the nose and throat, consequently allaying the discharge and
giving nature an opportunity to get the respiratory organs into a healthy con
dition. '1 his can neve be accomplished while the breathing passages are filled
with poisonous discharge of the mucus membrane, and unless the breathing pas
sages are cleansed and treated with a proper healing antiseptic a slight cold will
invariably result in Catarrh, La Grippe, sore throat. Cold in head or chest and
frequently result seriously.

One of the thousands of unsolicited testimonials we receive:
Gentlemen: Several months ago I was very much worried about a cold I had
contracted and which had settled in mv head, from which position it was appar
ently impossible to dislodge it; after suffering greatly fo ten days or two weeks
a friend prevailed upon me to try Ormsby’s Nasal Douche Tables, with almost
instantaneous results; in fact the results were so extremely gratifying that I
decided to continue the use of the Treatments in an endeavor to cure myself of
catarrh, with which 1 had suffered for years, and after taking the medicine ac
cording to directions for about six weeks I was entirely cured and have not been
able to detect the slightest trace of the disease since that time,
1 also recommended the use of tho Treatments to a friends who has suffered
for years from Asthma, and he has just left the office after informing me that
the Tablets ha J actully cured him; that he had not felt a trace to the old trouble
for move than two months, and that had been the longest respite ho had for
about twenty years.
Now, gentlemen, this is the first time in my life that I have ever recom
mended in any way a so-called “patent medicine" and I hope that you will take
it as the evidence of one who sincerely appreciates the high merit of the article
that you are placing upon the market us a curative agent.
Very sincerely yours,
