streams, building protecting walls, etc.

In gliding porcelain it is spread upon the

There are many things to be taken

About the first thing q purchaser viii

is the size of the sheep, and the next 10

and to the average man that is about all
that constitutes sheep. But is that ALI
Now what does it take to constitute a
typical sheep? First. it takes size What
is size: Is it sheep that is stuck up in
the air on a pair of legs two feet long?
No, it is a sheep that has short legs and n
heavy body of good length and properly
shaped, Is square on the shoulders, with
q round rib. good, straight back, well
rounded hams, heavy brisket. two or three
rolls around his neck. The next point is
the constitution. Yo1 don't want to breed
to ram that is ike two slabs laid to-
gether with pins driven in for legs. How
will we toll when sheep has a good con-
stitution? He viii stand with his head
erect, not tucked down. and sheep with
good constitution will keep i'll good con-
dtion under favorable circumstances.
What else should typical sheep pos
sess? Wool covering. Does this mean
wool three to five inches long on the
back and none on the legs and bellyl
Nay, verify" the model sheep has a
good length of wool on the back and
sides, and the most important of all is to
have good length on the belly and legs.
Don't buy ram unless he has good
length OF wool on his belly and les
wool down to the hoof. How about his
head: II must DE well wooded down the
face below the eyes and mp the throat

greasy sheep is not fit 10 breed as it

A STRONG ENDORSEMENT.

A leading druggist in the
northern part Of the state said
to US the other day: There is
on thing about Reid's German
Cough and Kidney Cure that is
different from any other medi-
cine l ever saw, and that is.
that it is generally and enthu-
siastically endorsed by leading
citizens in the city where it is
manufactured. Most medicines
are popular away from home,
but Reid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure is endorsed, and
its merits attested, by citizens
who have used it aud who are
acquainted with it." En- srson
says, The strongest testimonial
one can offer is the opinion of
his neighbor." 1t is TO the
merit Of Reid's German Cough
and Kidney Cure that those
who are most conversant with
1t are the loudest in its praise
and those who have seen il used
oftenest, are the most really 10
recommend it. Mr. Nj hail
Snider, fore man in the Peoria
Journal office in Peoria, is a
case in point. He had been
suffering with kidney trouble.
and he was attacked while
making up with a severe pain
across the small of his back.
His sufferings We're severe, and
he was finally taken home. Be

ney Cure, and to his astonish
ment he was cured and able to
resume his work, nor has he
bad a severe attack since, al
though he was often subjected
to them before. 1t also shows
that Reid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure will relieve kidney
trouble, for this was Mr.. Snider's
nalady, and what he had been
treated for by all the physicians
in the city, and it had been SO
pronounced. Since he began
taking this medicine, he never
was SO we'll in his life.
