The Kind of Cows to Keep.

A few years of grading up by means of using thoroughbred male will give any farmer herd of cows which will be great improvement upon those of their mothers and grandma It is well to test cows and know just what they are doing. Ilc c,lurl is perhaps the most satisfactory way of doing this. Keep q cows milk separate for one or more days, being careful to get out all the cream. When it is sour, churn it. The scales will tell, both with milk and butter, whether, COW is kept at a profit CT not. Remember that it costs at least S35 to keep 8 COW for Q year. If she does not return this in milk and butter she is kept at Q loss. If all such cows were discovered and slaughtered, the humber of COWS at the present time would be considerably reduced, and tt a great benefit to their owners. Hardly one man in twenty knows whether he is keeping his cows at q profit CT 6 loss. They think it is too much bother to find out. They do not realize the importance of the subject. It means dollars and cents, but they do not realize it, and go on wondering where the profit goes.-Colman's Rural World.

A tired stomach is very much like sprained ankle. If you suffer from any of the symptoms of dyspepsia, your stomach is tired. It needs a crutch. We must relieve it of all work for a time, or until it is restored to its natural strength To do this successfully we must use a food which is already digested outside of the body, and which will aid the digestion of other foods that may be taken with it. Such product is the Shaker Digestive Cordial
 The Shakers have utilized the digest i've principles present in plants for the manufacture of this article, and it's success has been truly phenomenal. You can try it for the nominal sum of 10 cents, as sample bottles are sold by all druggists at this price.

Electricity in Government.

One of the interesting sights in

cloak rooms, from which he will be
called by electricity. A button at each
seat on the floor will be connected with
annunciators that will drop the number
of the seat of the member who has
called. This will be an improvement
over the old method, where the boys
were called by the clapping of the hands
of the member who needed his SER
vices. No matter how important the
speech, it was interrupted by this hand
clapping and the scurrying of boys over
the fl, or. The first visit to the Capitol
was sure TO be distressing because of
the disorder largely due to the noise
made in calling the boys. Electricity is
about to save time and confusion in the
casting of votes by members. Buttons
at the desk, representing eyes and
"No," will connect with device which
will record the members vote for or
against measure. This will save the
calling of the names of the members,
which now consumes so much time

his native land; from country of con-

has made it one of the most peaceful

those of a strong man. II he encOun-

he is Bismarckan in his direc ness. A

Errors of Fact and Confusion OF Ideas.

Concerning the recent indi ,tment of
John W. Titcomb and G. G. Warren,
the former an existing the latter an ex-
fish commissioner of this state, by the
grand jury of Washington county, for
alleged violation of the prohibitory law,
the Bennington Banner makes the sub
joined comments:
This prosecution is strongly denounced
by the high-license press of the state, yet it
seems to be in accordance with the law.
Still, under the circumstances, the Of
Tense was insignificant in comparison with
the fragrant violations Of the prohibitory
law that are going on every day in the
week, Sundays included, in Washington
and every other county in the state. 1t
seems decidedly wrong that such an offense
should meet with prosecution, while the
greater offenses against the same law are
scarcely ever molested, and still less often
severely punished. We believe in the strict
enforcement of the prohibitory law as long
as it is the law, but we believe that the
ridicule brought upon it by the prosecution
of slight offenses, while the persistent vi
olators proceed unmolested, is a serious in
jury to the cause of temperance. This case
seems to be simply one of persecution.

SENATOR ALLIsoN's candidacy for

managers of his political interests ex-
press the belief that he will have the

THERE is no medicine 80 often needed In
every home, and 30 admirably adapted to
the purpose for which il is intended, as
Chamberlin's Pain Balm. Hardly a week
passes but some member OF the family has
need of IL. A toothache or headache may
be cured by it.; touch OF rheumatism or
neuralgia quieted; the severe pain of burn
or scald promptly relieved and the sore
healed in much less time than when the
medicine has to be sent for. A sprain may be-
promptly treated before Inflammation sets
in, which insures a cure in about one third
OF the time otherwise required, Cuts and
bruises should rec sive immediate treatment
before the parts become swollen, which can
only be done when Pain Balm is kept at
hand. A sore throat may be cured before il
becomes serious. A trou )lesome corn may
be removed by applying it twice day for a
week or two A lame back may be cured
and several days of valuable time saved, or
pain in the side or chest relieved, without
paying a doctors bill. Procure fifty cent
