truth. It can scarcely fail 10 teach 10

The famous block-house system OF sig
mailing trains on all trunk lines is brought
into prominence by Lincoln J. Carter
introducing his new play. The Eleventh
Hour" Mr. Carter demonstrates fully
the entire workings of the block system
that reduces accidents on railroads to a
minimum. How few people that are rid
ing on a fast train and fash by a block
signal tower know what is contained
therin and what an important factor
that tower is to the safe guidance OF
trains. Yet all of this is thoroughly dem
onstrated in THE Eleventh Hourfi, >"

The Western Farmer.

The chief Cause Of the exodus from coun-
try to city has been the is olation and lone.
illness OF farm life. Especially has this
been true in the West. where farms are
large and neighbors far apart. The ma
joriiy OF the inmates OF the insane asylums
10 some Western States are women; a
large per cent. of them farmers wives, sent
to the insane hospitals according TO med
ical experts. by the melancholy induced
by isolation The farmers children have
felt this influence too. They have usually
been compelled to help about the farm
work during the day, and when night
came they had little 10 the way of books
and papers TO amuse them and neighbors
were too far apart for frt quent gatherings.
The monthly trip to the county seat al
lowed them was great event to the child
rem. and it is little wonder that they found
he town attractive. AS they grew older
the fascination of town life grew upon them.
Sometimes they were sent to the town to
attend the graded school, and this in
creased the irksomeness and loneliness OF
the farm when they returned to it, with
the result that the boy left the farm to
seek his fortune 10 the city.
But now all this is changing. Rural
free delivery of the mails is taking daily
papers and illustrated magazines into the
farm homes, The telephone is connecting
neighbor with neighbor and with the sur
rounding towns. Late books follow the
magazines into the homes OF those who
can afford them, and the travelling library
supplies those who can not purchase the
books. The consolidation of rural schools.

The Experience of Mrs. Praxak, Wife OF

Minnesota.
The woman with the responsibility Of
house and family on her shoulders has
always been given to OVERRIDING herself.
As result almost every day we hear of
one breaking down. Her nerves have
given way or her strength has failed.
Such was the experience of Mrs. Prazak,
wife of J. NJ. Prazak town clerk of Mil
lersville, Douglas Co., Mimi. She says:
"I had been sewing great deal and
it was too much for me. Between that
and my other household duties l began
to be very nervous I had no appetite
and there was feeling of heaviness
around my heart, SO bad at times that it
seemed as if l couldn't get any air. /
was SO nervous always that any little
thing would upset me. Nothing that /
could do gave me any relief and it be-
came SO bad that l was obliged TO
neglect my homework. I had nervous
prostration.
"Some time in March, after had been
suffering for several months, / heard
of DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie and began taking them. I felt little
better and that made me willing to give
them thorough trial. took the pills
regularly for two months and by that
time my health was completely re-
stored.

in that are different from any other
medicine. They cure locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sci

has a capacity of 200 head per day.
Its cost, without engine or labor, ex-
cepting the labor to build the tank or
vat, was $50. One person can easily
lower the cage when loaded by taking
a hitch around post, and it may be
raised, as shown in the illustration, ell
ther with engine or horses.
A plant Of this capacity will answer
very well in a community where vari-
Gus owners have punches of cattle
ranging from 50 to 100 head or less.
Its chief advantage over the swimming
tank is cheapness in construction be-
cause of its size.
In communities where mango exists
or even where numbers of small herds
are infected with lice a planttof this

What Various People Say About 1t.
Gas or Coal Tar Used.
Rural New Yorker has interviewed
some of the best authorities on the
subject of the wisdom of painting the
silo
c. S. Plumb of Indiana paints the in
terror Of silos with gas tar.
L. A. Clinton of New York thinks
that painting or treating the silo may
do more harm than good. "ID our silo
a part of the slaves have been treated
with coal tar and part left without
treatment There are no signs of de-
cay in either case, and the silage keeps
equally we'll" He thinks painting or
treating does more to satisfy the fan
cy than anything else.
r. Scoville of New York has kept
yellow cypress staye silos well painted
for three years. and they show no
signs of decay. Until last year he used
a heavy wood filler on the inside, put
ting on one coat every summer. Last
year he coated the inside of two of the
silos with coal tar, which was put on
hot. In few days the tar was quite
hard and took rather glossy surface,
to which silage does not hold to any
extent
w. 2. Brooks of Massachusetts is Of
the opinion that there cannot be any
good argument advanced against
painting the outside of framed silos,
but in the case of stave silos there is
possibly a question as to the eXpedi-
ency of painting as the slaves will in
evitably swell and shrink with varying
moisture to such an extent that the
paint cannot be expected to keep the
seams closed. The best inside cover
