Now in the Spring of the Year.


During Winter, Nature wisely arranges
that we should live on foods containing
much fat, or, as they are known, hydro
carbons, for the purpose of supplying heat
to the body; the chemical operation nee es
sary to transform fat into heat is the excln'
sive work of the liver, and so during the
time stated it is constantly congested.
With the approach of warm weather our
diet charges to muscle-producing food, and
the work of the liver is much lessened. In
the majority of cases, however, it is unable
to completely throw off the excess of bile,
but remains congested, causing that lazy,
tired feeling which many have in the Spring
months, when the weather becomes warm.
This is evidence of an unhealthy con-
diton, and though people appreciate the
necessity of an Alternative at this period, the
common idea is to take drastic pills and
produce a cathartic effect, only to make
matters worse. The liver must be un-
loaded, and its proper action restored be-
fore hot weather, if you wish to preserve
health, and if this distinct call of nature is
Unseaiel serious results will occur.
The blood viii become loaded with bile
and lthic acid, and as every drop of vital
fluid passes through the kidneys to be puri-
fed, they soon break down and are unable
to carry out the deadly poison. Warmers
Safe Cure and Warmers Safe Pills have
not only a specific action on the kidneys,
but on the liver also.
They thin the thickened bile so that it will
pass out through its ducts, enable the
glands to unload themselves, act as solv-
ent on all hillary acids and in word, fit
these great organs for the seasons work,
preventing blood poisoning, Inflammation,
abscess, and all affections TO which they are
so liable.
As you value the blessings Of health, do
not allow the summer to approach without
giving your system general house
cleaning" IN the manner we have indi-
Gated.
"To be forewarned is to be forearmed."

Eggs for Market Only.

If your object is to keep hens for the
purpose Of selling eggs, do not keep a
lot of useless males to feed. The pres
ence Of a male has no influence what
ever on the laying of the eggs, and, If
any thing, he is nuisance when not
desired Bear in mind, also, that eggs
laid by hens not with males will keep
three times as long rs viii those that
contain the germs Of chicks. The best
laying breeds are the small ones, such
as Leghorns, and more of them can be
kept together than Of the larger kinds.
For eggs use the Leghorn, or cross
OF the Leghorn, and keep no males. If
You desire eggs for Matching make up
a special yard for that purpose and get
rid Of the males as soon as the hatch
ing season is over. Farmers Home
