the nervous system, attended by excruciat-

of family and friends prevented suicide
He told a reporter the following interesting
story:

Gus system had been shattered by the

Close by would not have more disturbing eff
feet upon nerves which are vigorous than an
ordinary Use upon those that are weak and
unstrung. AS a nervine, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is unrivalled. BY promoting digestion
and assimilation they overcome that gastric
disorder which is the most prolific cause OF
nervous debility, and which, so long as itexists,
defeats in large measure the action of sedativeS
and opiates. Such remedies, moreover, neces-
state the use of increasing doses and finally
cease to act altogether except in dangerous
quantities. They never reach the fountain
head of the trouble, and quiet the nerves only
by semiparalyzing them. Equally objection
able are fiery unmedicated alcoholic stimulants.

An eminent Austrian ornithologist"
Is credited with the statement that GER
tain birds migrate because they like
to travel" He says that fear Of cold
hardly can be the cause Of migrating
birds quitting northern climates on the
approach Of winter and returning in
the spring, for many species quite as
delicate as those which migrate south
ward easily withstand the rigors Of the
winter" Hence the movement is to be
accounted for by the theory that the
migrating birds have an irresistible
humor for travelling. This is well
enough, but there must be some suf-
ficient cause for that Irresistible hui
NOR" and 1t is natural to suppose that
cause is desire for food. The birds
migrate because the sad experience
of their ancestors developed In the de-
scendents al instructive appreciation
of the fact that the food they. wish Is
not attainablc In the northern land
during winter. The return in the spring
may be explained by reference to a
similar instinct recognizing the north
ern land as the original home for the
species rs for its individual members,
that being the breeding ground.

New system. OF Barn Building-Farn-

How to Relieve Choking Cattle
eomething New In Fencing.


A new SUSTAIN of barn building has
been In use In Central Ohio for Sc
ries of years, which Waldo y. Brown
describes as giving barn far great
err strength than the old plan Of heavy
timbers mortised and tenoned together,
with saving Of about half the frame
timber and more than three-fourths OF
the work of framing. This barn Is
called "the plank barn." and the entire
frame is made Of two by eight planks,
except nails, tins and rafters, which
are two by six. There Is, according to
the New England Farmer, not NOR
tise or tenor In the building, but 1t Is
put together with.,spikes and carriage
bolts, and two men will form a large
barn ready to raise in four days, such
a one as It would take them four weeks
to frame on the old plan. At 81 per
day for carpenters, the saving IN wages
would be $50 in framing the barn. and
as farmer must board his carpenter,
counting the board Of two men for
twenty days at 80 cents each per day,
we have saved $40 more, making the
saving In labor and board 500, be-
sides the saving oflumber.

A Good Soil 70 Cultivate.

II. s. Kingman, speaking Of the bet
ter. education of agriculturists, well
says: "FertiliZe the brains of the far
mers with good practical knowledge,
then they would be better prepared to
fertilize their farms intelligently." Ev-
cry lawyer in the land must fertile his
brain or he will fail Every docOtr,
every banker. every merchant, every
editor must do the same or they will
fail. And yet in the face Of all this,
and In face of the fact apparent on
every hand that it is the brainiest far
mers who succeed best, there can be
found farmers in every neighborhood
who really think that it does not pay
to cultivate brains In farming. They
think 1t is money thrown away to buy
books, papers or attend conventions
or farm Institutes. IL they thought
these things paid, we would see them
hard at it, for they want money bad
enough. Good thinking lies under the
success Of every man in all kinds Of
business. A man cannot do good
thinking unless he feeds his mind with
good thoughts.
