Proper Care of implements.

Farm implements do not wear out
so much as they rust out. Piows. cult

the open air usually end their useful
ness i'm one season instead of lasting
for several years. A mower or binder
that is not kept perfectly dry will be

PAIN and suffering they used to mean. It's
different now. Since Mothers Friend has
become known expectant mothers have
been spared much Of the anguish Of child
birth. Mothers friend is a liniment to be
applied externally. It is rubbed thoroughly
into the muscles Of the abdomen. 1t gives
elasticity and strength, and when the final
great strain comes they respond quickly and
easily without pain. Mothers Friend is
never taken internally. Internal remedies

for injuries received while in line of
duty. BiddiSon had about the closest
call to death that a man ever had and
still live to tell the story. He was
pulling train and it went through
culvert near Clayton. The engine and
Is cars were piled up in a space of not
two car lengths. When the wreck
occurred something hit Biddison so
hard on the back of the head that it
split his lower jaw-bone in two right
in the center. Blood poured from the
roof of his mouth as if it were sieve.
His neck was stretched over an inch.
Yet his spine was not broken nor his
skull fractured. This is what makes
the case 30 interesting, especially to
surgeons. He was thrown about Is
feet from the wreck and lodged in
the mud. After he recovered con-
seriousness he walked five miles to
reach d doctor. = Topeka Mail and
