In the principal Aztec temple in M exico., It w$s dug up near the site of thé temple in 1791, and Is now in the Mexican national museum. The stone is disk shaped, 8 3-5 feet in dia meter and 2% feet thick. The sides are covered with elaborate sculptures.

In reporting this the farm loan board announced that cupl- tal stock o f the banks, originally sub scribed mainly by the government, has Increased from $9.000,000 to $15,975,- 000 through additional subscriptions by farm loan associations, and that bonds amounting to $140.122,000 have been issued. The fnrmers are making their pay ments promptly. The report shows only $80,000 in loans was overdue, and delinquencies occurred utmost entirely In sections where there had been crop failures. Three hnnks, Wichlln, Spokane nnd Houston, have an actual surplus, and the Spokane and St. Paul banks will begin Vihortly to repay t h / government for the stock originally subscribed. The first step to eradicate the pests which live in cracks and crevices in poultry houses is to thoroughly clean the house, writes I*. P. Schowengerdt of the Colorado Agricultural college. All litter, nest material and droppings should he removed. Theft spray or paint thoroughly the entire surface of the house and literally flood all cracks and inside o f nests with a 5 per cent solution of cresol. Use plenty of spray and do the work thoroughly. Finally it should be remembered that one application of cither of these treat ments js not sufficient. Where there are lice and mites there are also eggs or “ nits” of these same pests. A Sec ond treatment should he glveh about one week after the first. By this time the “ nits” will lie hutched and the treatment will affect them while It did not kill the “ nits” at the first applica tion.

Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clog ged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain In the kldiley re gion. get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine! This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with llthia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutralizes the acids in the urine so It no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent Iithia- water drink which everybody should take now and then to keep their kid neys clean,^thus avoiding serious com plications. A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it Is only trouble.

Any corn, whether hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out without a particle of pain or soreness. This drug is called freezone and is a compound of ether discovered by a Cincinnati man. Ask at any drug store for a small bottle *f freezone, which will cost but » trifle, but ! b sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callous. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aching corn or callous. In stantly the soreness disappears and shortly the corn or callous will loosen and can be lifted off with the fingers. This drug freezone doesn’t eat out the corns or callouses but shrivels them without #ven irritating the sur rounding skin. Just think! No pain at all; no sore ness or smarting when applying it or afterwards. If your druggist don’t have freezone have him order it for you.— Adv. Bronze Casting an Ancient Art.
