No Cure No Paw.

1t is a pretty severe test OF any doctors
skill when the payment Of mis- fee is made con-
ditional upon his curing his patient. Yet
after having, for many years, observed the
thousands OF marvellous cures effected in
liver, blood and lung diseases, by DR.. Pierce s
Golden Medical Discovery, its manu- acturers
feel warranted in selling it, as they are now
doing through all druggists, the world over,
under a certificate Of positive guarantee that
it will either benefit or cure in every case OF
disease for which they recommend it. if taken
in time and give a fair trial or money paid

Bully for the Babies on Our Block.

The presbytery of Cincinnati, by de-

linked its name with Mrs. Winslow' s

other churches would tell us what will

In The Winter

Rheumatism is most prevalent because exposure
to the cold and wet drives the blood from the
surface OF the body, and causes congestion OF the
liver and kidneys. These organs are thus unable
to perform their functions of eliminating the i'm
purities and Tactic acid, which taken up by
the blood and deposited in the joints and Tissues
resulting in the pains and aches we call
Rheumatism.
Hoods Sarsaparilla has had greatsuccess in cur
ing severe cases OF this disease, both chron-
ic and inhammatory. This medicine, acting
promptly and powerfully on the blood, neu-
tralises the Tactic acid eXpels all impurities and
at the same time fnvigorates the liver and kid
neys so that they are restored to natural action.

Growing Rect Seed

The seed of no garden vegetable Is
more easily grown than that of the
beet 1t is sold wholesale very cheap
ly, but every farmer should, so far as
possible, grow beet seed for his own
use. Select well-shaped, not over
large specimens for seed. Those who
grow beet seed largely for sale plant a
late crop, which is forced to grow
rapidly by high manuring and good
cultivation. The idea that because a
long, slow grown root will seed abund-
antly, it is as good as any for seed, is a
great mistake. Seed from such roots
rapidly degenerates, and, in a few
years, will grow plants that run to
seed the first season.

No building on the farm pays better
than good Toulouse. 1t should be
so convenient Of access that there need
be no excuse for leaving farm imple-
ments exposed to the weather when
not used. Properly cared for, many
implements that now last only few
years ought to be serviceable so long
as the farmer lived to need them. Be-
sides, tool that has not been rusted,
warped and cracked by exposure will
work as well the second and third
years of use as the first. On many
farms tools are so much injured by
being left out of doors that after the
first season they cost more for repairs
than they save in labor.

Farmers Wivea

Perhaps the farmers wife is not an
object Of pity; perhaps no more is re-
quired of her than any other woman
might do. but it cannot be denied that
she is expected to do a very great deal.
The farmer of to-day is intelligent; he
likes to attend big Grange meetings
and Farmers Institutes; he likes to
take his wife along with him; he likes
to see her dress stylishly and her hair
as neatly arranged as the dress and
hair of any other mans wife. Should
they be obliged to take the baby along,
she is expected to take care of it; he
wants to listen to the speeches, and he
couldn't keep it still any way, so there
is no use of trying. Should there be
dinner connected with the meeting,
his wife must furnish her share of
light biscuit, frosted cake, etc.; she
must also help to set the table and
pour the coffee. Should she be called
on to make a speech, her husband is
gratified to hear her read a well-written
essay, and does not like it
If she cannot at least make
a graceful excuse. If she has the
least musical talents, she is wanted to
play the organ or help sing. 1t is not
necessary to add that this same farm
or likes to see his house neatly kept
his food well served, his children clean
and in state of good repair; all that
goes without saying. Should guests
visit their home, he expects his wife
to regale them with a savory repast,
and also to entertain them with we'll
chosen conversation. Should fin
gers be stiff with hard work, he re-
quests his wife to write his letters for
him; and should she be skilled in
arithmetic, there is no reason why she
should not keep his accounts.
BY the way, why is it that our girls
are so much better educated than our
boysp It is because the father keeps
his sons out of school whenever he
needs their help, while the mother al
lows her daughter to go, even through
doing her daily work without her in
wolves working half the night too.

AN EXCELLENT BARGAIN.
The Purchase of Louisiana from the Gov.

The Purchase of Louisiana from the Gov
ernment OF France.
BonapArtc, on behalf Of Franco. to
which country tho territory belonged,
sold Louisiana to tho United Statos in
1SO3 during the presidency of Thomas
Jefferson. because ~ he was aware that
II he attempted to retain it it would be
wrested from him, either by the United
States or by England. and because (2) he
needed the $4,000, 900 which the United
States paid him for it to aid him in his
war against England and her allies.
The United States thus came into pos
session of about 600 900 square miles OF
territory. or about 5000 square miles
moro than the domain of the ORIGINAL
thirteen States. That is to say, the ac-
QUESTION of the Territory of Louisiana
more than doubled the national area.
OF course. the present State of Louisiana
formed only small part of this terri
tory. 1t extended from the Gulf of
Mexico north to tho Canadian line, tho
Mississippi river being it's eastern
boundary, while it stretched along the
Gulf westward to the Spanish possessions
at the Sabine river, and along it's north
erly end it reached westward to tho Pa
cific. The territory included the pres
ent State of Louisiana, Arkansas Mis-
souri,, Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas Ne
braska, South and North Dakota, part
of Colorado, Wyoming and Montana, all
OF Idaho, Oregon and Washington, and
the Indian Territory. There was dis
pute between the United States and
Great Britain as to the ownership of
what is now Oregon and Washington,
but British claims to those regions wore
eventually renowned. The territory
added to the United States in 1913, as a
result Of the Mexican war, was about
623, 600 square miles in area.-St Louis
