A MIRACLE EXPLAINED.

Bryant, Mo-, May 13.-The sensa-
tional cure of Mrs. NJ. A. Goss, of this
place, has sent ripple of excitement
all over Douglas County, and Dodd's
Kidney Pills, the remedy in question,
are receiving thereby, the greatest
advertisement any medicine has ever
had in this state.
To satisfy the many inquiries
which she finds it impossible to an
swer by letter, Mrs. Goss has sent thu

Il did not think L could live a day
and suffer, as / have lived and suf.
fered for months, with Sciatica and
rheumatism. | used baths and lini.
ments of all kinds. Two physicians
treated me, one of them for two
months. Nothing helped me in the
least. / never slept more than ter
or fifteen minutes at a time. l wai
belfast, and had to lie on one side al
the time. / used to wish for death
to deliver me from such torture.
"a friend suggested Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and after | had used them a
week, L began to improve, and in
about four weeks / could sit up in
bed. A few days later, / walked a
quarter of mile and back. I now do
all my own cooking and house work.
The pain has entirely left me. and I
am well woman. I have taken alto
getker. sixteen boxes of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved

A FAMOUS OLD HOUSE.

The house Of Walter Baker & Co.,
whose manufactures of cocoa and
chocolate have become familiar in the
mouth as household words. was es-
tablished one hundred and twenty
one years ago (1780) on the Nepon-
set River in the old town of Dorches-
ter, suburb of Boston. From the
little wooden mill, by the rude
bridge that arched the flood" where
the enterprise was first started, there
has grown up the largest industrial
establishment of the kind in the
world. 1t might be said that, while
other manufacturers come and go,
Walter Baker & Co. go on forever.
What is the secret of their great
success? 1t is a very simple one.
They have won and held the conf
dence of the great and constantly in
creasing body of consumers by al
ways maintaining the highest stand
ard in the quality of their cocoa and
chocolate preparations, and selling
unadulterated articles of good quail
ity can be put upon the market. They
welcome honest competition; but they
feel justified in denouncing in the
strongest terms the fraudulent meth
DDS by which inferior preparations
are palmed off on customers who ask
for and suppose they are getting the
genuine articles. The best grocers
refuse to handle such goods, not alone
for the reason that, in the long run,
it doesn't pay to do it, but because
their sense of fair dealing will not
permit them to aid in the sale of
goods that defraud their customers
and injure honest manufacturers.
Every package of the goods made
by the Walter Baker Company bears
the well-known trademark LA Belle
Chocolatiere, and their place of man
ufacture Dorchester, Mass" House.
keepers are advised to examine their
purchases, and make sure that other
goods have not been substituted.
An attractive little book of "Choice
Recipes" will be mailed free to any
housekeeper who sends her name and
address to Walter Baker & Co., Ltd,
15S State Street, Boston, Mass.

BITS FROM BUZZDOM.

Swarming hives should be kept In
cool place. swarm may be in
duced to enter hot hive, but if it
be too hot they are liable to de-
sert it.
Use young larvae for the rearing
of queen bees. Bees always select
the younger larvae, and apiarists
may well follow the bees in this mat
ter, says Mrs. Ella Henson.
Sometimes, when bees have started
combs, and some eggs are laid, an
extremely hot day will cause them
to desert the hive. This can be
avoided by having the hive in a
shaded place, or by erecting a four
pole simple shade over it.
Be seldom desert hive after
they have made large beginning on
combs and eggs, or when frame
of brood is supplied to them.
Close students of bees insist that
bees never gather honey and pollen
on the same trip.
Honey-gatherers carry twice as
heavy loads as are gathered by the
pollen-gatherers. The reason for
this is that the honey is heavier than
the pollen, bulk for bulk, and that
the honey is taken into the bees
sack, while the pollen is carried on
the ends of the legs.-Rural World.
The size of the hives must be set
tied by the locality of the apiary.
No one size of hive will answer per.
fectly in all places.

Dampnes. Causes Many Ills.

Protection from dampness is of the
greatest Importance. More injury
comes to chicks from dampness than
from all else besides. If they can
find dry spot for their feet dur
ing the day and a warm, dry place
to stay in at night, they will do fair
ly well, even during a long wet
period, after they are three or four
weeks old. Small chicks suffer very
much during wet weather, and should
be protected from both wet and
dampness. Cold and dampness pro-
duce colds and bowel trouble, either
of which is very disastrous to brood
of chicks. During wet weather it is
not amiss to tie a small piece OF gum
camphor with a small stone in a
piece of cloth, and put in their drink
ing water 1t is one of the best sim
pie remedies for colds.-Country Gen
tleman.

objects upon which a bird may light.
No bait is needed. The trap is simply
opened on top of the pole, where the
bird sets it off and is caught in the act
of alighting, a. OF course the trap
must be firmly secured to the pole.
The device is based on the principle
that birds of prey habitually light on
prominent objects in large open
spaces, where they will have a good
outlook for game. A trap well placed
will, during one season, catch all the
hawks within radius of several
miles. Owls and other large birds are
also frequently found in the trap. The
longer and the more substantial the
pole, the better it is.--Orange Judd
Farmer.

WHAT WE HEAR FROM ASSINI-
B0IA, WESTERN CANADA.
'DOn't Think of Conf, 3, But come. .

''Don't Think of Cont e, But Come"
To the Editor:
The above is the emphatic man
ner IN which a friend in York
ton writes to a friend near St. Paul,
Minnesota, and 1t is pretty nearly
right, too, when the advantages
that Western Canada offer to those
seeking homes. The Assiniboia dis
trict is one of the best. The writer
from whose letter we quote goes on to
say:
John. If you miss this chance you
are foolish, for you can get out cheap
er when there are so many coming,
and would not tell you to come if l
thought you could not do wen, and if
you don't come in the spring you will
have to go away back, for you do not
want to think that there is no one liv-
ing out here but us. ! saw nicer build
ings out here than l ever saw before,
and if the country was no good what
would they want them for? John, if
you sold everything you have and
come out here you would be worth
more than ever you were before, and if
you can bring your team, you can get
anything you want on tick, and when
they do that with strangers they are
not afraid they can't make enough to
pay for it. / saw as nice wheat as I
ever saw in my life and if they could
not grow grain what would the -four
mill be for, and il cost $4,000"
Now this was what Mr.. Thomas
Fitzpatrick, of Yorkton, Assiniboia,
Western Canada, wrote to friend.
There will be opened up this summer
new districts in Saskatchewan and
Assiniboia, at low prices, particulars
of which can be had of any agent of
the Government of the Dominion of
Canada, whose advertisement appears
elsewhere in the columns of your pa
per. Yours truly,

Teaching Chickens to Rnnst

The best method to follow for the
smaller breeds is to teach them to go
upon a roost as soon as they are old
enough. Place a cost in their coop
as soon as they are old enough to leave
the hen or brooder, so that they will
learn the habit Of roosting, as it keeps
their legs in better APE as to smooth
ness and color. This viii not do so
we'll for larger fowls, as they are so
heavy and clumsy that it is not of ben
eft to them, for the reason that it
often bends their breastbone out of
shape. The best plan for them during
the summer is in open sheds upon
clean sand. protected from all rowing
animals by wire cloth fronts to the
sheds. These sheds or runs should be
cleaned up every morning and raked
over so as to keep them clean and
sweet.-Country Gentleman.
