CHAPTER RI

Father, / think I'd like to join the
volunteer" said Martin Kearney one
day, about q month after the above event:
the country is in a bad way, an it's
time for them that love, peace and quiet
ness to spake up"

count OF the arrest of several of the

the house of q woman of that name.
"lts bad for the poor boys that went

Martin asked.
But he shook his head, as he replied
somewhat hastily: "Not /, faith; the
boys never did anything to me-"
An I'm not going to do anything to
them" answered Martin, quickly. Son

but without any avail; and early the
next morning Martin started to do what

had already done.

his wife were startled out Of their sleep

Sfarflin1 Fact

Thousands of children have died of
diphtheria this winter who might have been
saved by a single bottle of Johnson's Ano-
dyne Llniment which costs 30 cents. 1t is
a sure preventive Of d~ipththeria and will
cure nine out OF ten. No family should be
without IL a day.

Practical Generosity.

DR.. /. S. johnson & Co.. Of Bangor,
Maine, will send by mail, postage paid, a
~ pound sample package of Sheridan's
horse and cattle powders, on receipt of
twenty t20l cents. These powders are worth
their weight in gold to make hens lay, and
will prevent all manner of diseases common
to hens, hogs and horses, including hog
cholera. Q

The Extended Popularity

OF DooLEY's YEAST POWDER is the best
evidence OF its worth. Whenever you want
a light, white, sweet biscuit, delicious Dot.
PIE, elegant cake, or a choice pudding,
DooLEY's RAKING POWDER should be used.
Perfect purity and absolute full weight are
the watchwords Of the manufacturers.

FARM AND HOME.
Choice Of Rama.

Nothing is SO important after sorting a
flock of sheep down close as to be very
particular in selecting a ram; never Use
a male of any sort but a full blood, and
be sure he Is descended from a family
that goes to make up the deficiencies you
ack in your own; in this way the flock
is systematically and rapidly improved,
and the owner is well repaid for the dill
gent attention which he has given this
object. If the flock is large
the owner will find in this principle Of
selecting everything that he can want.
Ia proportion as the flock improves he
regard this as a rule that admits
Of no deviation, for the principle that like
produces like extends as powerfully to
The defects as to the excellencies of the
On the principle of selecting
breeders you may continue to improve.

MOTHERS! MoTHERs!! MoTHERs,,,
Don't fail to procure Mrs. Winslow's Sooth-
ing Syrup for all diseases incident TO the
period OF teething in children. 1t relieves
the child from pain, cures wind collie, regu-
iates the bowels, and by giving relief and
health to the child, gives rest TO the mother.
1t is an old and well-tried remedy.

Drinks for Fowls.

The neglect in the care of fowls, which
is most common in winter, is in supply
ing them with water. More fowl die
from this cause than any other, and if
they live, the fowls lose flesh and become
unthrifty. Many a fowl found dead in
the yard will often weigh 10 more than
its bones and feathers. Want of water
is the cause. In cold weather chickens
will remain on the roost nearly all day,
and the little time spent in eating is not
enough to enable them to drink, unless
it is very conveniently placed. See to
it that every chicken not only eats but
if you have them thrive. To en-
sure this, there is nothing better than
a pan of milk in some sheltered
place, on the south side of the barn or
The milk is also favorable
to egg production. In cold weather pull
the fowls from their roosts, if they will
not come down otherwise, when you are
feeding and watering them On no ac-
count let them eat snow or ice. When
they peck at the snow it is Il sure sign
that drink is needed Country Gentle

An ASTONISHING FAcT.-A large
proportion of the American people
are to-day dying from the effects of
Dyspepsia or disordered liver. The
result of these diseases upon the
masses of intelligent and valuable
people is most alarming, making
life actually a burden. instead of a
pleasant existence of enjoyment and
usefulness as it ought to be. There
is no good reason for this, if you will
only throw aside prejudice and skep-
ticism, take the advice of Druggists
and your friends, and try one bottle
of Green's August Flower. Your
speedy relief is certain. Millions of
bottles of this medicine have been
given away to try its virtues, with
satisfactory results in every case.
You can buy a sample bottle for 10
cents to try. Three doses will re-
lieve the worst case. Positively sold
by all Druggists on the Western Con-
tinent.
For sale by Point Pleasant, Drug
Store, Jos, S. Miller, supt.

Doy'r BELIEvE N ADvERrHINo.-

The man who says he doesn't be-

A man can't do business without
advertising, and the question is
whether to call to his aid the engine
that moves the world-the printing
press, with its thousands Of messen-
gers working night and day, the
steam engine adding to its repeating
capacity untold power and miracu-
lous speed; or, rejecting all these to
goback to the days when newspapers,
telegraphs, and railroads were un-
