The Horse Kicked Him.
The horse is noble animal, and one OF the best
friends OF man. Yet no man wants even his best
friend to kick him in the back. Mr.. Libby, of
Lowell, Mass, received such kick from horse in
1865. Ever since he has been martyr to spinal
suffering. Perry Davis Pain Killer has relieved
him from great deal of agony. While he has
life as he never could have done otherwise. "Acc-

Put a Brand on Him.

Women are a necessary evil" he said,
bringing down his fist hard on the counter
TO emphasize the heartless remark. II was
in the village store at West Milton, Saratoga
County, and the speaker was the central
figure of a group CT bucholic philosophers.
He was bomely, siovenlv and sixty.
"There's where l differ from you alto
cether," said Mr.. George 7. Graham, Of the
same place. "Women arc mostly what men
make 'em. When husbands are bruteS wives
will fall into submission or make home hot
for the men and they're unnatural in either
character Love them, and especially be
GOOD to them when they're sick, and you'll
have no trouble. There's my own wife, now.
She's suffered good deal with dyspepsis,
nervous prostration and other ailments that
took the bloom off her cheeks and the spring
out her steps. Well, she saw an advertise
mcnt of "Parker's Tonic" and thought it
would be Just the thing for her case. Gentle
men. I sent five miles after bottle. She
took il. I sent again after more. So several
times. Trouble Why, if you could see how
much good it has done her you would say
that women are the greatest Of Gods bless
ipcs, and "Parker's Tonic" is the next.
: This preparation, which has been known
asr"Parker's Ginger Tonic" will hereafter be
called simply 'Parker's Tonic" This change
has been rendered necessary by substitutes
imposed upon their customers by unprinci,,
pied dealers under the name OF ginger and
as ginger is really an unimportapt favoring
ingredient, we drop the misleading word.
There is no change, however, in the prcpa-
ration itself, and all bottles remaining in the
hands of dealers, wrapped under the name
of "Parker's Ginger Tonic contain the
genuine medicine if the fac simile signature
of f"Hiscox & Co., is at the bottom of the
outside wrapper, Nov. 29-lm.

BLoAT IN Cows.-The best rene
dy for blost is to prevent it by
feeding cautiously. Some cows
whose digestive power is week sui
fer from bloating, which is one OF
theresults of indigestion. To pre-.
vent this a regular course CT treat,
ment should be followed. Begin
by giving q pint Of inseed oil, and
repeat this three times at intervals
of three days. Then mix one
pound OF carbonate of soda and
one Of salt, four ounces of ground
ginger, two ounces of powdered
gentain root, and two ounces OF
powdered sulphate of iron, and
give a spoonful of the mixture
night and moraing in little scald
ed bran, cut feed or inseed meal.
Care is to be taken that the cow
is not overfed, and only moderately
watered some time after feeding or
soon before it.

Is not too often to use it, yet If once

WooD's ODoNTINE the greatest change
is observed. Instead Of brown, stain
ed and ugly looking spots on the teeth
you will see bright row OF polished
pearles, where the teeth are sound
and even when they are not perfect
they will be kept from further decay.
WOODS ODoNTINE contains nothing
which can possibly injure the teeth but
on the contrary is beneficial to teeth

HOUSES AND PENS FOR
SWINE.

A great deal of money is expend-
ed in stables for horses, barns for
cows and houses for sheep, but
one rarely sees elaborate or ezpen.
siye houses for swine. When large
houses are constructed, Of necessity
many animals are brought together,
and it becomes difficult matter to
gain for all the proper ventilation,
sunlight and general comfort,
Farmers generally agree that
houses or pens of simple comstruc-
ton, which may be moved OF pulled
down without great loss when once
infested by disease or vermin, are
best and cheapest in the end.
When but few pigs are kept these
can in spring, summer and even
during the early fall be kept in
small portable pens which may be
moved few feet every day or two.
This plan gives the pigs the bene-
ft of fresh, clean earth and grass
continually. Such pens must OF
course be light in weight and are
therefore best when made of pine
lumber. Each pen ought to be
provided with trough and some
sort of temporary roof over to
afford shade from the sun.
Light portable pens are suited
only to mild weather and small
numbers. For winter there must
be ahouse or pen that will protect
from storms and cold. The fol-
lowing plan for pig pen, it is
claimed, may be built at a cost not
exceeding S25, exclusive of labor.
Nine posts are set one foot in the
ground and so as to project as far
above the surface, These are ar
ranged to form square, with three
posts on each side and one in the
center. Four by four-ineh sills
are laid upon the posts, with a cross
sill in the center and halved to-
gesher at the joints. No wall posts
are used, stout boarding being
used to serve the purpose.
A convenient size is gained by
making the pen eight feet each
way, but it can be built to suit the
requirements of the builder. To
put up the walls begin at the bot
tom, fastening on the corner boards
first and mailing their edges firmly
together. Two by fourinch strips
serve as plates, Two by six inch
floor beams are laid upon the sills,
sixteen inches apart, and the floor
upon which three twelye-inch
boards are laid-one at the peak,
one at the caves and one between
these two. The roof boards pro
per, eight feet long, are put on
lengthwise of the rafters and bat
tened. Space for the doors and
windows are dds in the boards.
The interior division should be
made so as to give one half OF the
space TO feeding place and the
other side to sleeping room.
Across the front should run mar
row passage, from which is a slop,
ing board by which to pour slop
into the trough in the feeding
room. 4 sloping gangway must
also lead from the passage to the
ground.
In whatever style the zen may
be built, it is a good plan to have
the troughs level and so arranged
that the feed can he poured into
their entire length from the outside.
This insures o more equal distri-
button of the feed and enables each
animal to secure ils share Gooa,
hard oak, by the way, is an admira
BILE material for the troughs.
