MAN -A-LIN can be relied upon to produce a gentle ac tion of the bowels, making pills and drastic cathartics en tirely unnecessary. A dose or two of Man-a-lin is advisable in slight febrile attacks, la grippe, colds and influenza. THE MAN-A-LIN CO. COLUMBUS, OHIO, U. S. A. Time Tables for Clothe. "I was walking on Pennsylvania avenue In Washington one day at high noon when a 'nigger' loomed up on my horizon coming rapidly toward me," said a well-known negro comedian. "He was wearing the most outlandish outfit I ever saw on a human being, on or off the stage. His trousers were frayed and torn above his snoetops. He wore a musk-colored woolen shirt, a celluloid collar and a tattered sack coat.' On his bead was a sombrero which looked as if several dogs had been trying to pull It to pieces. But the crowning effort was a new and im maculate full dress vest He had pull ed back his coat and shoved his thumbs Into the armholes of that vest. As he came sailing before the wind he certainly was the most comical fig ure I ever saw. I couldn't resist the temptation to stop him. "'Look here,' I said, 'what do you mean by appearing at this time of day in such a dress? Don't you know that you're de trop?' '"De what what's that?' " 'Don't you know that you're de trop?' I repeated, 'that It Isn't permis sible to appear In full dress before 6 o'clock In the evening? "The darky drew himself up very proudly. " 'Look bean,' be said. 'I'll have you to know that I don't 'low nobody to make time tables for my cloas.'" Kansas City Times. Reapecta Work. "I am afraid you don't like work." "Yes I do," answered Plodding Pete. "I have so much respect for work that when I see a piece of it to be 'tended to I alius feel like turnln' it oVer to some body else that wouldn't be as likely to spoil it as I would."

In the homo smoking of meat I have learned something by experimenting that Ib a great saver of work and of much more consequence keeps the meat In better shape during the mok Ing process. I used a low smokehouse, and, handle the little necessary fire as beBt I could, It would sometimes heat the meat more than was good for It had the fire covered In a little pit In the center of the smokehouse. Then I tried a pit outside several feet from the building with an underground flue, but fill the heat generated In that went Into the smokehouse, so It was unsat isfactory. I placed an old heating stove, with the legs taken off, on the ground about eight feet from the side of the smoke house, put an elbow on the stove and ran a pipe In through the side of the smokehouse. Then I started a pttle fire In the stove, and as the smoke poured from the funnel It occurred to me to turn the smoke down, so I put on an elbow with mouth pointing down, and as that worked all right I put a length of pipe on that and watched to see what the smoke would do. In a moment It poured from the pipe right NO HEAT, MO DANQEB OF FIHE. down near the ground. The end of the pipe Is four or five inches from the ground and nearly on a level with the bottom of the stove. It works finely, The cooled smoke rising from the ground conveys no heat to the meat though quite a little fire Is kept in the stove. The fire needs but little atten tion, as the stove Is kept about closed all the time. It is very satslfactory. Kansas Farmer. The American Carriage Horae. The development of the American carriage horse at the Colorado Agrl cultural College and Experiment Sta tlon Is progressing very favorably, says Prof. W. L. Carlyle of the Colorado Agricultural College, In the Twentieth Century Farmer. At the present time twenty-two brood mares are to be found on the farm, and of these nine teen are expected to foal this year. Fourteen very high-class yearling colts, by the stallion Cannon, are exemplify ing the success of the work undertaken. At the present time seven very fine foals have come to hand this year and the Indications are that they are supe rior to their brothers and sisters of last rear. Tue station ana conege, in co operation with the government, will in crease the brood mares to thirty-five head during the summer, and only those of the very highest class will be secured. , Moat Ralae Many Cropa. Twenty years agq, hundreds of North Dakota farmers bought butter, eggs and even potatoes and cabbages at the village stores, but they were not real farmers, merely wheat raisers. They depended entirely upon one crop, and when that failed, distress followed. James J. Hill quickly taught them the folly of that kind of farming, and to-day the State's diversified crops are equal to those of any other Northern State. The educational movement was not that Mr. Hill had any love for the farmers then, nor has now, but he had a big railway to feed and was forced to teah the farmer how to produce the freight Now the experiment stations are carrying on the education com menced by Mr. Hill (and are doing-It Derter. , Algeria Want Oar Wasp.. The American wasp Is to be used In a campaign of extermination of the horse fly In darkest Africa. By re quest to the Louisiana crop pest com mission, Abraham Rosenheim, assist' ant entomologist, is sending a consign ment of these "horse guards" from Cameron parish, La., where the wasps atttaln unusual size and ferocity. A band of embryo stingers will be ship ped from New Orleans by way of Havre on the steamship Louisiana July 12 in refrigerated baskets with the j pupae of the Insect Feed Com Their Own Milk. An endless chain arrangement that on Its race appears to oo me most economical scheme ever devised has been started by Prof. Erf, of the Kan sas State Agricultural College. Prof. Erf takes the milk secured from cows on the college farm converts It Into a powder and feeds It to the cows, mak ing what Is declared to be the cheap est of all the cow foods. The food Invented by Prof. Erf Is made of buttermilk. He has perfected system of drying buttermilk and then converting It Into a powder. This dried buttermilk contains about 70 per cent of protein, twice as much as cot ton seed meal contalnns, and can be manufactured for one and a half cents a pound. Thus a food twice as rich as cotton seed can be manufactured at approximately the cost of the latter. One hundred pounds of buttermilk will make from nine to ten pounds of the finished product and as the esti mated waste of buttermilk In the creameries of Kansas Is 500,000 pounds daily, It is figured that by the adoption of this progress a saving of J400.000 can be made yearly In Kan sas alone. How to Grow Celery. Dr. S. B. Partridge of East Bloom field, N. Y., Is raising celery on a large scale on the bed of a reclaimed swamp, He set 125,000 plants last year, of the dwarf golden self-balancing, and pro duces from 1,500 to 1,800 dozen branches of celery per acre, marketable at from 20 to 30 cents per dozen. His celery kept for winter market Is placed In trenches made by means of a crib, 16 feet long and 14 Inches wide, which Is placed in the row and filled with eel ery. Then a deep bank of earth Is thrown up on either side to the celery, after which the crib Is taken up and moved forward Its length, and the same process Is repeated. The trenches are left open at the top until the ap proach of cold weather, when they are covered with straw and earth. New England Fanner. Managing the Workers. Managing the workers on a farm is a science la itself. It is a science that few have studied sufllclently. Plan ning out the work so that It may be done in the best manner and In the least time Is equivalent to a saving In dollars and cents. Not only should the work be properly done and at the right time, but the time between different pieces of work should be as small as possible. Here is a point at which great waste occurs. It is like a man forgetting something at the store and having to drive back miles to get It No man can properly manage a set of workers without putting some thought on it Thinking is not so easy as It seems. To think in a loglce.l manner requires effort Effective Wagon Jack.

Don't be unkind to the milk cow. Don't allow cows to sleep In a muddy shed. Don't permit the cow to drink Im pure water. Don't use a club, but kind words In stead. Do not feed the milk cow "rotten" or decayed corn. ' Don't allow your finger nails to grow long If you are a dally milker. Don't allow any loafers around when milking, such as dogs, children or cats. Don't fall to keep some sort of salt handy so the cow may have free access to It Don't, when milking, beat the cow for stepping backward when files are numerous. ' Don't expect a cow to give as much milk when half fed as when properly cared or. Don't allow your cows to be chased by dogs or be hurried when going to or from pasture. Don't milk until dusk during the hot months so as to avoid the presence of the flies which so vigorously attack the cow just before sundown. Indiana Farmer. UK c ' SKIN DISEASES HUMORS IN When the Hood 13 pure, fresh aM find free from blemishes, but when (jme lation its presence is manifested py a skm eruption or disease. These humors get into the blood, generally because of an inactive or sluggish condition of the members of the body whose duty it h to collect and carry off the waste and refuse matter of the system. This unhealthy matter 13 left to sour and ferment and soon the circulation becomes charged with the acid poison. The blood begins to throw off the humors and acid3 through the pores and gland3 cf the skin, producing Eczema, Acne," Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin eruptions cf various kinds. Eczema appears, usually with a slight redness of the skin followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching i3 intense. It is generally on the back, breast, face, arms and lears. thouch other Darts of the body may be affected. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks and bleeds; the acid ia the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, which are intended to keep it soft and pliant, causing a dry, feverish condition and giving it a hard, leathery appearance.

The very high sounding word eti quette bad a very humble origin, for etiquette meant simply a label. It re ceived its present slgniflcatloa from the fact that a Scotch gardener who laid out the grounds at Versailles for Louis XIV. was much annoyed at the courtiers walking over his newly made paths, and at length had labels placed to Indicate where they might pass. At first these labels were not attended to, but a hint from high quarters that in future the walks of the courtiers muBt be within the "etiquettes" or labels was promptly attended to. To keep within the etiquettes became the cor rect thing. The meaning of the phrase was afterward widened. , W. L. DOUGLAS $3.00 & $3.50 SHOES THESWORLD tt78HOE8 FOR EVERY MEMBER OFrr THE FAMILY.
