Its use insures safety to the lives of both Mother and Child, and she is found stronger after than before confinement—in short, it “makes Childbirth natural and easy,” as so many have said. D o n’t be persuaded to use anything but MOTHER’SFRIEND “ My wife suffered more in ten min utes with either of her other two chil dren than she did altogether with her last, having previously used four bot tles of ‘Mother’s Friend.’ It is a blessing to any one expecting to be come a MOTHER,” says a customer.

The Bratifield Regulator Co., Atlanta, Ga. Did You Ever Think. That to judge anybody by his personal appearance stamps you as not only ignorant, but vulgar? That a kind word put out at interest brings back an enormous percentage of love and apprecia tion. That to talk and talk and talk about yourself and your belongings is very tiresome for the people who listen. That though a loving thought may not seem to be appreciated, it has yet made you better and braver because of it? That to be always polite to the people at home is not only more ladylike, but more refined than having “company manners?” That the little act of kindness and thoughtfulness day by day are really greater than one im mense act of goodness once a year. Plymouth, Pa., Aug. 25. 1896.—My opinion of Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic is that it will do all that is claimed for it. As a remedy for colic it is the best I have ever used. Albert G. Groblewski. Good Manners. Don’t forget to say “Good morn ing ! ” and say it cheerfully, and with a smile; it will do you good, and do your friend good. There’s a kind inspiration in every “Good morning” heartily spoken that helps to make hope fresher and work lighter. It seems to make the morning good, and to be a prophecy of a good day to come after it. And if this be true of the “Good morning,” it is so also of kind, heartsome greetings; they cheer the discouraged, rests the tired one, somehow make the wheels of life run more smoothly. Be liberal with them, then, and let no morning pass, however dark and gloomy it may be that you do not help at least to brighten by your smiles and cheerful words. UNCLE SAM’S DOMAINS. With All of His Extravagance He Still Owns Over 600- 000,000 Acres. Much in Little Is especially true of Hood’s Pills, for no medl cine ever contained so great curative power in so small space. They are a whole medicine Hood’s chest, always ready, al- ■ ■ ■ ways efficient, always sat- MgJ all isfactory; prevent a cold III nr fever, core all liver ills, rfck headache, Jaundice, constipation, etc. 25c. The only Pills to take with Hood's Sarsaparilla. The idea that Uncle-Sam is al present a landless old fellow ha- generally taken possession of th^ people throughout the countiv. This, however, is a great mistake. He still has land enough to give each one of his 78,000,000 children a nice little homestead of eight acres each and still have a ranch of over 16,000,000 acre** left. In other words, your dear, old uncle still owns something over 600,000- 000 acres, distributed as follows throughout the various states and teritories: Alabama, €32,839 acres; Arizona 54,400,211 acres; Arkansas, 3,922,- 042 acres; California, 43,841,044 acres; Colorado, 4,037,204 acres ; Florida, 8,797,662 acres; Idaho, 45,962‘855 acres; Kansas, 1,046 - 589 acres; Louisiana, 845,020 acres; Michigan, 522,431 acres; Minnesota. 6,240,049 acres; Mis sissippi, 41,441,220 acres; Missouri 497,764 acres; Montano, 71,582,917 acres; Nebraska, 10,669,353 acres; Nevada, 61,578,586 acres; New Mexico, 56,983,047 acres; North Dacota, 21,385,293 acres; Oklaho ma, 8,105,238 acres; Oragon, 35,- 892,818 acres; South Dakota, 13,- 250,718 acres; Utah, 44,207,270 acres; Washington, 17,958,536 acres; Wisconsin, 454,107 acres; Wyoming, 49,341,588 acres, and Alaska, 369,529,600 acres. About one-half this vast amount of land lies, it will be seen, in Alaska, and it is very certain that this will never be available for homestead purposes, but for min ing purposes its value in cold coin may prove to be even greater than though it were arable. The larger part of the balance lies in fertile and productive states, and is all subject to homestead laws. Those who want homes should avail themselves of the more than liberal homestead laws of the United States. This is the place for the surplus labor. Any fool can lay plans, but it takes a wise man to hatch them out. The Devil IS THE AUTHOR OF DISEASE. SUFFERING, DEATH. Mrs. M. G.

Question.—Is it too late to apply lime to my lauo? How shall I put it on, and how muen to the acre? ANSWER. — As a general tiling it is best to apply lime m the fail. It should be applied veiny io the surface of the fall plowed laud. It will gradually sink into the soil ami perform a wonderful work there. To aid in its even disrri- butiou. ou which much of its beneficial effect depends, a harrow should be run lightiy over the land. There are ex ceptional cases in which the application may be made later. For iustauce. i the soil is very sour, or if fertilizers without nit to ire n are to be used. If ni trogenous fertilizers are to be used tl lime should be applied iu the fall. The usual rate is from one to two tons to the acre. On very dry, sandy soils smaller applications must be made than upon moist ones. Other things being eqnal, the productiveness of the soil is, in a measure, dependent on a certain per centage of lime.—State Agricultural Department. ~ “Agcr’s llerrg Pectoral is the best remedy that I know of for La Grippe.” Rev.
