Furrows
A farmer is known by bis furrow as
■the carpenter is kn wu by his chip*." It
takes a linn hand and a true eye to tuni
a straight furrow. No wonder tlic fanner
wears out. spile of exercise and fresh air.
One day's work on the farm would tire
tnany a trained athlete. Ami the farmer
worka hardest of all The first up and
tile last to bed, feeding his team before
he feeds himself, his work is practically
newr done. Why does not tnr furmet
treat lus own laxly as lie treats the land
he cultivates? ife puls back in pbus-
Ehate what be takes out iu crops, or thr
ind would grow poor. The farmer
should put tuck into bis txxlv the vital
elements exhausted by labor. If lie doe*
not. lie will soon complain of " poor
health." The great value of Dr Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is in its vital
ising power. It gives strength to the
stomach, life to the lungs, purity to the
blooii. It supplies Nature with the sub
stances by which she builds up the body,
just as the farmer supplies Nature with
the substances that build up the crops.
