HOW 1 MADE $1,000

By not sowing Salzer's seeds! That is
what jolly farmer said as he entered
our sanctum. How is that? Why,
says he, Salzer's seeds not only grow
but they produce enormously. Had
planted few acres more of his oats,
wheat, corn, potatoes, grass and clover
seeds, would have had to double the
capacity of my barns; that would have
cost me $1,000. 1t is fact that if you
whnt big, rousing farm, grass and vege-
table crops, you must SOW Salzer's seeds.
IF YOU WILL CUT THIS OUT AND SEND II
with &c postage to the John A. Salzer
Seed company, La Crosse, Wis, you will
get free sample of GRASS AND CLovEE
MIXTURE and their plant and seed
catalogue. ~

A WINTER pLAYRooM.
1t Il Something Which Every Child WIN
Appreciate.

Appreciate.
If there is an empty or unusued room
in your house, give it over to the chill
dren for winter playroom. Have no
pictures on the wall nor any furniture
that is of the slightest value. The win
dows should be screened by wire net
ting, and If near the floor, protected by
iron bars without, so that there is no
danger of falling out. If the floor
shows wide cracks, have the children
putty them up. The stove, If one is
needed, must also be screened, to pre-
vent the slightest possibility of fire.
Any decorations the children want to
make should be allowed, provided they
furnish them with their own money,
or ingenuity. 1t gives them sense of
ownership they can attain in no other
way.
Here all the rough-and-tumble games
not permissible in the nursery can be
played. The floor, If even, can be used
for roller skating and croquet, while
base and football, circus and tag can
be played with impunity. A tool chest
and scroll saw will while away many
rainy days, and heap of sawdust will
keep even the baby in Elysium. Make
the children themselves keep the room
tidy, and while not insisting on the
order that reigns in the nursery, yet
see that utter chaos is avoided.-Mil-

business fashion. This man was just
dying, just simply dying by himself

ACUTE DYSPEPSIA.
Sympathetic Heart Disease Otter
Attends It.
The Modern Treatment Consists in Re-
moving the Cause.

(From the Republican, Cedar Rdpids Io,Od.)
Mrs. v. Curley, who has resided in Clar-
ence, Iowa, for the past twenty-five years,
tells an interesting story of what she con-
siders rescue from premature death. Her
narrative is as follows:
"For ten years prior to 1894 was a con-
stant sufferer from acute stomach trouble.
1 had all the manifold symptoms of acute
dyspepsia, and at times other troubles were
present in complicaton-I did not know
what it was to enjoy meal. No matter
how careful 1 might be as to the quality,
quantity and preparation of my food, dis
tress always followed eating. / was de-
spondent and blue. Almost to the point of
insanity at times, and would have been glad
to die. Often and often 1 could not sleep.
Sympathetic heart trouble set in, and time
and again l was obliged to call doctor in
the night to relieve sudden attacks of suffo-
cation which would come on without q
moments warning.
My troubles increased as time wore on,
and / spent large sums in doctor bills,
being compelled to have medical attendants
almost constantly. During 1892 and 1893 it
was impossible for me to retain food, and
water brashes plagued me. / was reduced
to skeleton. A consultation of physicians
was unable to determine just what did all
me. The doctors gave us as their opinion
that the probable trouble was liberation of
the coats of the stomach, and held out no
hope of recovery. One doctor said: 'All
can do to relieve your suffering is by the use
| of opium.
About this time friend of mine, Mrs
| Symantha Smith, of Glidden, Iowa, told
me about the case of Mrs. Thurston, of Ok
ford Junction, Iowa. This lady said she
| had been afflicted much the same as l had.
| She had consulted local physicians without
relief and had gone to Davenport for treat
ment. Giving up all hope of recovery, she
was persuaded by friend to take DIR.
Williams Pink Pills. The result was al
| most magical.
| was led to try them from her expert
| ence, and before many months l felt better
