MiRS Off, 1127 Linden St., In dianapolis, Ind, writes: "I suffered with a run down constitution for several months and feared that I would have to give up my work. "On seeking the advke of a physician, he prescribed a tonic. I found, however, that it did me no good. On seeking tha advice of our druggist, he asked me to try Peruna. In a few weeks I began to feci and act Cke a different person. My appe tite increased, I did not have that worn out feeling, and I could sleep splendidly. In a couple of months I was entirely recovered. I thank you for what your medicine has done for me." Ella Off.

After aelerting the box, make a frame three Inches wide and nail around the edge of the box. Then bore a few holee In one end of the box. Then make a frame to fit snug ly over the box (see the upper Illus tration In the cut) and fasten hoops on It. Cover thla hooped frame with unbleached mualln, tacking the muslin to the frame and gathering It in at tht ends as Indicated. The frame covered with the musllu will not break the top of aoft planta, and, It Is readily con structed. This framed cover rests up on the three-inch frame which was first put about the box and will not readily slip off. Churning; with tht Wind. To butterniakers who have to do their own churning with a dash churn I Illustrate a method that does away with manual labor. The Illustration almost explains Itself. A balance wheel must be arranged at one end of an axle, and a four or six-fan wheel, to catch the wind, at the other end. In the center the rod must be bent In the shape of the letter U. As the axle re volves, this plays the pitman up and down. The churn stands In the box. The rod should be so arranged that It can be- quickly detached when It Is necessary to look at the butter. Handles are provided at the bottom of the box for turning In the right direc- tlon of the wind. When not In use, the fans can be taken off and the re mainder of the crude machine can be left Anyone can make one, and so help the work of the women who have to churn by hand. Clement Grover. Th fitablt and Pasture. Put fresh hay In the stables. Venti late the buildings. Don't let the horses eat too much fresh grass. It may scour them. Clean the hoofs and clip the over growth, rut lighter shoes on the horses. Curry the horses while they are shedding their winter coat and wash them often. The colt can safely be allowed In tha pasture with the other animals, ana st a -very early age should be broken to gentle habits.

When the horses are hot and sweaty fter a long drive or a day's work, sponge them with cold water so that they will not catch cold. W.terin !, principles of growth, there la danger that he will, wben applying wattr, do more nann than good. To apply wa- ter In Am M 11 n lift tit If la tlirincrh thai droughty season Is to cause the roots In the ground to turn toward tue sur face and grow In that direction. Then when watering la diacontlnued for any reason th roots dry out much more auirkir thn it h h.i nA t.n . tered at all. Wbea water Is applied to trees It should be In sufficient abundance to soak the ground to a depth of several feet The roots will then not turn up to get moisture. If It Is necessary to apply but little wa ttr at a time It should not be put on the surface of the ground. Dig a hole and put In a large piece of drain" pipe so that the water being thrown Into this pipe or pleec of tile will soak deep into the ground. In case of not having a drain pipe or piece of tile, a hole can be made sufficiently deep to act as a reservoir. Let the water soak Into the ground from this hole. The Idea Is to get the water to the roots from some other direction rather than from the aurface of the ground. The Ortat Conn try of tht North. The resources of Canada are hardly yet appreciated by her nearest neigh bors. Figures were recently quoted by a prominent Canadian speaker, Mr. Kdgar Judge, showing that the home stead holdings In Northwestern Canada since 1RKJ have Increaaed from 297, "00 acres to 2.220,120 acres. "If fifty thousand farmers could raise seventy million bushels of wheat In 1002 In Manitoba, then 2.7),000 could raise 3.10.000,000 bushels, enough to supply tho total Import requirements of Great Kriuln, besides feeding the people of Canada." The speaker asserted that the freight on wheat shipped from Ft William, Canada, to London, England, waa leas than that on shipments from English midlands, only one hundred miles from Loudon. lie concluded that the possibilities of Canada as a grower and exporter of fruit products were greater than those of either Bussla or the United 8tates. Ararat Stock Price. There waa a time when the man that received an average price for the cattle, horse, or sheep he sent to mar ket made money on It, but that time la not now. Then land waa cheap, labor was cheap, and grain waa cheap. Now all of these are high, and the average price of an animal does not often equal the coat of the labor and feed that have gone into him. This condition has grown upon us till we find ourselves facing the necessity of working out of It by producing ani mals that will sell for more than they do at present or discovering some com bination of feeds and care that will lessen the cost of production. It Is well to work along both lines. Ex change. Bilk Worn Culture in Ceylon. From recent experiments conclusive proof has been obtained that silk of excellent quality- can be raised In Cey lon, and samples of cocoons raised at Peradenlya from European seed have been classed by a European expert as second only to the best Italian silk. Hitherto all experiments have been on a small scale, limited partly by the comparative scarcity of mulberry trees. The time seeme now to have arrived when more extensive operations mlfrht be undertaken with advantage, and It la proposed to create an experimental silkworm-rearing establishment A scheme Is under consideration by the Ceylon Board of Agriculture. Roadside Fruit and Note. The street department In the German duchy of Baden are working out a new plan of beautifying the country by setting cherry, apple, pear and walnut trees along the roadside, about thirty feet apart The fruit belongs to the State and la aold at public auction on the tree. The amount realized from the( aale of fruit of late years baa considerably exceeded the cost of care. The Poultry Tard. If there are any hollows In your poultry runs that are liable to hold water after heavy showers, fill them up or drain so that the birds will not be compelled to wade through mud dy water half way ud to their kneea. so to speak, says Commercial Poul try. Otherwise some of those valu able and highly prized early hatched birds will likely He down and die. And you will wonder what is the mat ter with them. They will be dead, of course, but you might have saved them. It Is as impossible to con oner the diseasesContagious Blood Poison with Mer cury and Potash as it would be to conquer the king o! the forest in a band-to-band encounter, as thousands wbo have bad their health rained and lives blighted through the cse of these xuin erals will testify. They took the treatment faith fully, only to find when it was left off, the dis ease returned with more power, combined with the awful effects of these minerals, such as mercurial rheumatism, necrosis oi me Dones, salivation, Inflammation of the stomach and bowels, etc. When the virus of Contagious Blood Poison enters the blood it quickly con taminates every drop of that vital fluid, and every muscle, serve, tissue and bone becomes affected, and soon the foal symptoms of sore mouth and throat, copper-colored blotches, falling hair and eyebrows, swollen glands, sores, etc., make their appearance. Mercury and Potash can only cover up these evidences for awhile; they cannot cure the disease. S. S.

"Well, I was once locked in a freight car for a week, with the weather at aero and nothing but a frozen turnip to eat, and nothing but blocks of build ing stones to keep me warm, and if I am not entitled to a pension nobody else ought to have one. The horrors of that old turnip beat uie horrors of a battlefield all to pieces." A New Kipling Story. I It is nearly a year since any Ameri can magazine has been fortunate enough to secure a Btory from Kipling; but the August Century prints a tale, "An Habitation Enforced," which gives us Kipling at his best. Someone, in com paring Kipling with the old, three vol ume novelist, has said that he gives us "the Liebig extract of those cattle low ing on a thousand hills,", bo here, where two Americans,' a' nervoualy broken millionaire and his wife, take np an enfored habitation in an enchant ed corner of England, he contrives to give a quintessence . of American and British civilization a commentary, in brief, with vistas such as only a Kip ling can open np. A delightful vein of satire crops out wnerever the British way and the American way , meet, a vein which will charm readers on both sides the Atlantic. Most readers, too, will find in this latest story of the greatest of living English story writers the spiritual touch which was so strongly manifest in "They" seemingly marking a new and higher phase of de velopment in man and writer. 1 1 Is Si I At IVJA SIMPLE, STUONG.
