If every man could live an outdoor life,
passing his time with gun and fisIingrod
and canoe, there would be less illness ia
the world. Unfortunately, the demands of
modern civilization will permit very few
men to live this ideal, hea1thfu1 life.
Many men have to pass the day shut up
IN offices and stores, and the nights in close
apartments IN crowded cities They get
little outdoor exercise. One of the results
OF this unhealthy, sedentary living is the
awful prevalence of that dread disease
consumption. One-sixth of all the deaths
each year are due to this relentless enemy.
Formerly physicians pronounced this dis
ease 1ncurable. It is now generally known
that there IS a marvellous medicine that fox
the past thirty years has been curing con-
sumption almost without a failure It is
Dr. Plerce's Golden Medical Discovery. It
cures % per cent. of all cases of consume
ton, bronchitis, asthma, 1aryngitis and
other diseases Of the air-passages. It is the
great re-builder It tears down, carries off
and excretes old, inert tissues and replaces
them with the firm tissues of health. It
restores the lost appetite and makes the
digestion perfect.
Four years ago 1 had an attack of grip that
left my throat and lungs in a bad condition.
writes Mrs. Mary Hartman, of 900 Harker ST.,
Mansfield Ohio " The doctor said l had dis
ease of the throat and bronchial tubes 1 con
tlnued to grow worse. had pain in the upper
part of my chest and severe cough which
grew worse at night and in the morning, with
heavy eXpectoration. I would cough up mat
terry scabs, after which I would experience a
burning and smarting sensation in my throat
| took the doctors prescriptions without num-
Der, but they did me no good / took sixteen
bottles of cod liver oil and was as bad as ever I

Medical Discovery, and three of the Pellets

IT is pretty generally understood
that the name of John w. Canes, Of
Lowell, will be presented to the next
Republican state convention as a

The Dodge county program seems to
be Sauerhering for congress, Canes
for the state ticket and Labuwi for

Was Willing to Work.

Ed. Mertz's many friends in this
city will appreciate the following good
story told of him by The Juneau
Telephone:
Zone of the outgoing trains from
Milwaukee last Monday morning had
on board a number of travelling men,
among whom was E. F. Mertz, former
ly of this city. The train got stalled
in a big drift, several miles from any
station. After waiting, hoping, smok-
ing and card playing for several hours,
the knights of the grip got hungry
and headed by Ed. made a break
for farm house, which could just be
distinguished about a quarter of mile
away, through the blizzard. After an
hours plunging through drifts, chin
deep, they reached the door and knock
ed for admission. Their whiskers
were festooned with icicles, their legs
were as large as flour sacks from the
accumulated snow and the fur on their
coats was turned the wrong way
The lady who opened the door thought
they were a gang of hoboes, but plying
their condition she held back the dog
Ed, who was chosen as spokesman for
the party, finally pulled an icicle from
his mustache and in most pathetic
way begged for sandwich for him
self and each of his friends. The lady
asked him if there was any money in
it and he said they had a few cents,
but their purses were frozen in. He
said he was willing to work for the ex-
pected favor. She asked him what
kind of labor he preferred and he
promptly volunteered to NOW the
lawn"

Managing the Fruit Plants.

In the Spring it is generally best
to leave the mulch on the straw ber-
ny bed until after the plants are
done fruiting 1t is rarely advisable
to cultivate bearing strawberry
bed that has been properly mulched
until the bearing season is over.
With a newly set bed, however, it is
quite an item to give clean, thorough
cultivation in order to get a vigor-
Gus, thrifty start to grow.
This applies to all varieties OF
small fruits. With plants that are
in full bearing and that have been
we'll mulched through the Winter
very little if any cultivation need
be gwen until after the plants have
fruited. Exceptions, however,
should be made with the grape, as
it fruits so late that if cultivation is
given it must be given in good sea-
son.
With tree fruits, at least until the
trees have come into bearing well,
one of the best plans of management
is to give early, thorough cultiva-
ton during the early part of the
growing season, leaving the soil un-
disturbed after the weather becomes
hot and dry Ia the orchard, when
the character and lay of the land
will permit, it will be best to give
clean cultivation until the trees
come into bearing well, when the
orchard can be seeded to clover and
be used as a pasture for the hogs or
poultry.
Trees must be cared for during
growth the same as any other crop.
1t is hardly good management to
buy and pay for lot of fruit trees,
be at the trouble and expense of
setting them out and then neglect
them.

This is Certainly IA Wonderful Chance

We are aware that our readers
who suffer from Nervous, Chronic
and Sexual Diseases do not have
the same opportunity to be cured as
do the residents of the large cities,
where the most eminent physicians
and specialists reside. DR.. G. H.
Towner, Detroit, Mich, Box g.,
who has the largest practice in the
world and who is without doubt the
most successful specialist in curing
all forms of Nervous, Chronic and
Sexual troubles, offers free consul
tation by mail to all sufferers. The
Doctor has just issued a very in
teresting and instructive treatise
that should be read by every man
who is married or is thinking OF
marriage. 1t gives you information
on many subjects which You have
no doubt often wondered about He
will send you a copy free, if you
write to him enclosing a stamp.
Better write to-day, as the demand
for the treatise is very large and
first come are first served. No mat
ter who has failed to cure you, it
will cost you nothing to obtain the
Doctors opinion on your case. Re-
member he has made his worldwide
reputation by curing the most OBJ
stinate cases, after they had been
given up by the most eminent ply
sicians in this country and Europe.
Do not be deferred from seeking his
advice, because after being treated
by many who failed to cure you,
you have become discouraged. This
is the very time you should make
one more trial. The Doctors offer
of free consultation will only last a
short time longer, so we would adj
wise our readers who are interested
to write at once about their case, as
he will surely cure them and the
chance to get the free advice Of this
eminent specialist may never occur
again.

Every housekeeper should possess
a knowledge of simple remedies for
the slight ailments of the household.
Those who know exactly what to do
under all circumstances rarely lose
self-control, and it is particularly
important for the mother of family
to know what remedies to apply in
case of accidents and emergencies,
and to have such on hand. The
following are reliable:
For burns, linseed oil, glycerine
and borax water, mixed together
and freely applied, will be found
efficacious. A dressing made OF
powdered borax moistened with cold
water will prevent pain or inflam-
nation.
For black eye, a cloth wrung
out of warm water and applied fire.
quently will prevent soreness and
discoloring of the skin.
Bleeding from the nose may bt
stopped by holding the hands over
the head and putting ice to the nose
and back of the head.
For toothache, mix equal parts
of alum and powdered borax.
Bee stings, mosquito or gnat bite
may all be relieved by bathing il
borax water.
For earache, take equal parts o
laudanum and tincture of arnica
saturate piece of wool with tn
mixture and put in the ear.

The women Of to-day arc not as strong
a. their grandmothers.
They are bearing burden IN silence
that grows heavier day by day; that Is
sapping their vitality, clouding their hap
piness, weighing them down with the woe
of i'll health.
Mrs. Alexander B. Clark, Of At Michi-
gan Avenue, Detroit is typical woman
Of to-day. A wife with such ambition as
only a loving wife can have. Bot the
Joys Of her life were marred by the ex-
istence Of disease.
Suffering as thousands Of her sisters have
suffered, she almost despaired of life and
yet she was cured.
To-day she is WE'LL
She wants others to profit by her ex-
perience; to grow well; to enjoy health;
to be as happy as she is.

trouble" is Mrs. C1ark's own version Of
the story. ~ was not free one single day

AS 10 Fertilizers.

There is no longer much desire
among well-informed farmers 10 get
the lowest-priced fertilizers with the
idea that these are therefore the
cheapest 1t is impossible to cheat
nature. All the elements of fertil-
ity, mineral and heterogeneous, cost
money, and if little money is given
for fertilizers, we can expect but lit
tie good to the crop from them
When we take into account that
much of the expense of commercial
fertilizers consists in the cost o.
distributing them evenly through
the soil, it will be seen that the
highest priced, if also the best, may
be really the cheapest.-Ameri

FOR THE FARMER.
COOps for Young Poultry.

To manage young poultry to the
best advantage there must be plenty
of coops When a hen first comes
off her nest with brood of young
fowls, whether they be chickens,
ducks, turkeys, geese or guineas, a
coop or place for her should be pro-
vided where she can be kept with
her brood until the little fowls have
made sufficient growth to permit
her having the run of small yard
with them. 1t is important that
this place be dry, not only overhead
but underfoot. This implies good
roof and tight floor.
The particular form is not so i'm
portant as to have them dry and
comfortable. They should be built
so as to be easily moved, as it is not
advisable to let the fowls remain in
one place too long at time.
Then there should be good feed
ing coops in which food can be put
and where young fowls can run in
and eat without being molested by
the larger ones.
The young growing fowls, especi-
ally those intended for early mar
ket, should be fed regularly five
times day, and if the matured
fowls are allowed to eat as much as
they would get if fed with the little
ones, they would soon get too fat.
Make hat-slatted coop about
foot high, two feet wide and six or
eight feet long. At each end and
along the sides places should be left
three or four inches wide by four
inches high so that the fowls can
run in and out readily. A smooth
board eight or ten inches wide and
nearly as long as the coop should be
placed inside on which the feed can
be put. Care must be taken to keep
the board clean and to move the
coop every few days in order to pre-
vent the coop from becoming too
foul. Only the feed that is eaten
mp at once should be given, as it
will get more or less filthy and sour,
and in such condition the young
fowls have no business eating it,
1t will be good economy at the
start to make these coops of good
material and strong, yet not so
heavy as to be cum bersome, as they
must be moved about, and then they
can be used for several years if pro-
perly cared for. Make enough of
them so that there will be no neces-
sity for crowding at any time

Value OF Wide Wagon Tires.

The extent to which the value of
wide tires has come to be recognize
ed is shown by the fact that during
the last twelve months the Legisla-
ture of nearly every State has been
asked to pass bill providing for
their compulsory adoption. The
State of New Jersey has already
adopted law of this kind, and it
is reaping the benefit in the coun-
try. With the tires in use, even
the present country roads will i'm
prove, for such tires serve as rollers
to make the roadbed compact, in
stead of cutting deep ruts, as dc
