Profits In DairyinU

Much of the profits of dairying Is eaten up by the cows. A single COW may be all right In appearance and even in quantity of milk yield and yet she may be merely an expensive lux ury, her feeding and care weighing more financially than her butter prod uct. Every COW should be carefully tested not only as to amount of butter yield, but as to the amount of feed she requires to make it from. The test should involve careful weighing of feed as well as butter. and cows that do not yield a reasonable profit should be weeded out.

ly said, "the pleasure Of living depends
upon the liver" and it is a fact which
none may dispute that sunny DISPOSE
tion more often results from healthy
digestion than from any other cause.
Acid dyspepsia, commonly called sour
stomach or heartburn, is caused by slow
digestion of food; instead of being di-
gested and converted into blood. bone
and muscle, it lies in the stomach for
hours, fermenting and decaying creating
gases which causes pressure on the
lungs and heart, short breath and gen.
eral discomfort and irritation.
Such half digested food is indeed poor
nourishment for the body, and nerves,
and the result is shown in irritable tenn.
per, unaccountable headache and that
depressing condition usually called the
"blues" but how quickly all these dis
appear when appetite and digestion are
restored.
Laxative medicines only irritate the
already irritated stomach and bowels
and have no effect upon actual digestion
of food.
The sensible course to follow is to
make use of simple natural digestives
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
meals until the stomach has a chance to
recuperate.
The natural digestives which every
healthy stomach contains are peptones,
diastaste and Hydrochloric and lacric
acids and when any of them are lacking
the trouble begins. The reason Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are so valuable and
successful in curing stomach troubles is
because they contain, in pleasant con-
centrated tablet form all these absolute
ly necessary essentials for perfect diges-
tion and assimilation of food.
Henry kirkpatrick, of Lawrence, says
Men and women whose occupation pre-
cludes an active outdoor life should
make it daily practice to use Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after meals. l have

MIR TURNER'S PETITION.

The petition of Mr. Turner for pardon
is a curious and wonderful document
1t began with four lines stating his SER
vice in the Confederate Government,
and then devoted seventeen closely writ
ten pages to trying to prove that 1.-The
doctrine and teachings of Thomas JEFF
ferson" were responsible for t. war.
He reviewed the jefferson and Hamil-
ton theories of government at great
length and was as violent in denouncing
the Democratic party from Jefferson to
Calhoun as he was later violent in his
arrangements Of Holden and the Kirk
war. He details the attempts he made
to prevent secession, criticizes Governor
Ellis and the Democratic Legislature,
giving correspondence between Cover
nor Ellis and President Buchanan with
reference to the taking of Fort Caswell
by State troops, and giving in full the
resolutions offered by him in the Legis-
lature of 1860 against buying arms, or
preparing to defend the State. We
quote this characteristic sentence:
Twenty years ago Hon. Abraham w.
Venable could be elected to Congress
from North Carolina and continued
there utterng the sentiment that he
owed no allegiance to the United States
but to NTH Carolina. By such Demo-
cratic teachers have the people been
alienated from their natural affection to
the government of the United States"
He calls the war "a Democratic Re-
bellion." He then tells how as member
of the Confederate Congress he sought
to end the war ito make peace, taking
such terms as we could get" He has
mucn criticism of John G. Calhoun and
praise of Daniel Webster He closes this
most remarkable petition with these
words
