Some person with shattered
nerves and debilitated constitution
stole a box, last Friday evening,
containing one dozen bottles Of
Payne,s Celery Compound from
Nick Doff1ng q Company. 1t had
been set off at the side of the drug
store by the drayman and was not
promptly taken into the building
and the fellow feloniously appropri
ated it to his own use and ia no
doubt, very much surprised and
disguised to know that instead of a
case of rich old Bourbon it was moth
ing but dozen bottles of nerve
sedative.

Best Time to Dishorn,

This practice seems to be growing
in many localities, and many claim it
is great benefit both for the beef
cattle and the dairy breeds as the
polled cattle are more gentle in
temper and less dangerous than those
with horns, and dairy cows have been
found to be better mixers.
But the dishorning of older cattle
by such means as the saw or clippers
has proved 80 cruel that experiments
have been made to find a more hu-
name method. The result is that the
more simple method is to prevent the
development of the horns of the
animal while young. This may be
done by the use of caustic potash and
by clipping away the hair from the
young horn, moistening the potash
and rubbing it on the horn for a few
seconds, or until the skin begins to
start. The horns soon heal over. and
the result is polled heads in almost
every case. The better time to apply
this treatmen is when the calf is from
one to three weeks old.-Erchanqe.

A Good Story.

A Maine paper tells good story of
the temperance agitation of 1914.
In those days practically every
retail merchant in the city kept liquor
for sale, or to give away. In a Ken
nebec village an old grocer, other
wise reputable man, derived con-
