A SPRING DISEASE.
More Catarrh at this Season Than in
Any Other.

The fact that catarrh is more
prevalent in spring than any other
time of year is easily accounted
for by the sudden changes, the
warm sunny day succeeded by the
snow or sleet of the next.
Repeated colds in the head re-
sulting from our tickle spring eli
mate, very easily drift into nasal
catarrh, which is at first simply
an uncured cold, which finally, II
neglected. causes Inflammation
and thickening of the mucous
membrane of the nasal cavity
which gradually extends into the
throat and bronchial tubes and
the stomach, causing catarrh OF
stomach.
Douches of salt water or douches
of any kind very often aggravate
the trouble by still further irritat-
ing the 1elicate membranes.
The safest remedy for colds in
the head and for any form of
catarrh is some simple and safe
antiseptic, preferably in tablet,
and taken internally several times
day.
One of the best antiseptic catarrh
tablets for this purpose is one COM
posed of Sanguinaria, Eucalyptol
and Guaiacol, and sold by drug
gists under the name of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets clean the catarrhal
secretion from the membranes OF
the nose and throat and act also
very effectively upon the blood,
their regular use for a few weeks
entirely eliminating the catarrhal
poison from the system.
The best remedies for any trou-
BILE are the simplest, and Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets is superior prep
aration for colds and catarrhal
conditions because absolutely free
from cocaine or opiates so COM
monty found in cheap cough cures
and catarrh medicines.

MEAT OR CEREALS.
Question of Interest to All Careful
Persons.

A Question of Interest to All Careful
Persons.
The arguments on food are interest
ing. Many persons adopt a vegetarian
diet on the ground that they do not
like to feel that life has been taken
to feed them, nor do they fancy the
thought of eating dead meat.
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption of partly cooked, starchy
oats and wheat, or bread, pastry, ETC.,
produces serious bowel troubles, be-
cause the bowel digestive organs,
(where starch should be digested), are
overtaxed and the food ferments, pro-
ducing gas, and microbes generate in
the decayed food, frequently bringing
on peritonitis and appendicitis.
Starchy food is absolutely essential
to the human body. Its best form is
shown in the food Grape Nuts, .
where the starch is changed into grape
sugar during the process of its manu-
facture. In this way, the required
food is presented to the system in a
pre-digested form and is Immediately
made into blood and tissue, without
taxing the digestive organs.
A remarkable result in nourishment
is gained the person using Grape
Nuts gains quickly in physical and
mental strength. Why in mental
Because the food contains delicate
particles OF Phosphate of Potash OBJ
tanned from the grains. This unites
with the albumen of all food and the
combination is what nature uses to
rebuild worn-out cells in the brain
This is scientific fact that can be
easily proven by ten days use OF
GrapetNuts. Never eat beyond three
or foar heaping teaspoonfuls at a

are building new residences, as they
can neither get water, gas, or a sewer.
The law will most probably be tested.

DO NOT SPARE THEM.
Use the AK on the Hen That Lays Hel
Eggs on the Floor of the
Poultry House.

The hen which habitually lays her
eggs on the floor of the poultry house
or in the scratching pen should be
killed. If she is not made away with
the owner will find flock Of egg-eat-
ers on his hands before the winter Is
over. And after having had one ex-
perience of that kind he will not risk
another for the sake of saving the head
of any hen on the place.
A certain proportion Of the pullets
when they first begin to lay will refuse
to use the nesting boxes. If caught
when discovered making a nest on the
floor and penned in one Of the boxes it
will usually break up the habit of de-
posting the egg on the door. But one
will be found now and then which will
obstinately refuse to lay anywhere but
on the floor. When all other persuasion
and argument fails, that Of the Ratchet
will be effective.
Don't be chicken-hearted about ap-
plying this remedy. You can't afford
to take the chances of losing al: the
profits of your winters work merely
for the sake Of sparing pig-headed

me for Heavens sake, when I got married,

sunshine in the winter time. Sun
shine should be present at all times
Of the day; its salutary effect will be
remarkable. In the summer time the
fowls naturally get all the sunshine
they want without our help, but at
this time of year we must give them
our help. Sunshine will keep the air
dry and will to some extent neutralize
the moisture constantly being thrown
off from the lungs of the fowls. A few
good-sized windows on the south side
