FROM PURE GRATITUDE
ARMOUR GIVES MILLIONS,

Chicago, Nov. 3O.-As a monu
ment OF gratitude of his daughter
heir to fabulous wealth, who ha
been reclaimed from life of ute
helplessness and given one o
activity and endearment, j Ogdel
Armour, millionaire, has begun
plans for the Lolita Armour In
stitute of Bloodless Surgery, which
is to be endowed with $4,000. OOC
The first active step in this dlrec

she had been since birth, from

With a smile the child walked
across the floor to him, making a
playful grimace and cakewalk

anxious nurse.
Good. You're as well as any
child,' said the noted surgeon, and
he and DR.. Mueller shook hands.

Then two men. one American.

the bloodless treatment hospital

be necessary to maintain it.
First of all, it was announced by
the donor that the institute shall
be absolutely free to whomsoever
may need treatment. There is not

was settled by DR.. Lorenz on be-

DIR. Lorenz said the night he
accepted the degree of doctors of

sity that the doom of the knife
was sealed, that it should not be
used So it is to be with the new

A Hidden Foe.

Often il will be found upon inspec-
ton OF the strawberry plant that the
main roots have been cut of by a large
white grub with n yellowish head.
Usually they leave enough small roots
TO keep the plant alive when the ground
is moist, so that it is not likely to be
noticed. These pests have never ap-
peared upon the surface, like the cut
worm. but do their dastardly work IN
der the ground where II is not seen and
at a time when the plants need every
root and fiber to insure n good stand OF
vines for the next seasons crop.
A farmer called on me one day and
requested me to go with him to see II
could tell what was the matter with
his strawberries. went with him,
and one glance at the vines was sufi-
Gent for me to understand what was
the trouble. Stepping to the side OF q
plant, / dug around the roots OF the
plant and pulled out large white grub
instructed his twelve-year-old boy,
who had accompanied US. how he could
locate the grubs by repeating the op-
Grafton several times. and his father
told him he would give him a cent
apiece for all the grubs he could find

were left they gathered at the frst

them for $10.-Cor. Ohio Farmer.

ShOrthorns seem to keep penetrating
farther and farther into the villas
where they have hitherto been I'M
known. English statistics show that
number Of breeders in one town in
Sleswick-Holstein paid $50 guineas for
the bull Victor at the Riby Grove sale
last summer, and a similar company
paid 165 guineas for another ShorthOrn
bull at Lord Brougham's sale. Two
bulls OF this breed were sent to Japan,
and one lone youngster was expatriated

sent TO Australia from English ports
and some score and n half good bulls
to New Zealand. South Africa took
about twenty-five Shorthorn bulls from
British breeders, and a larger number
were billed TO Russia, some having as
their destinations points far In the inte-

A FEW
WORDS ABOUT
JOBPRIN7INC

1t used to be that the quality of
Job Printing did not amount to
much, so far as success in business
was concerned. Any business man
or woman could get along fairly well
without it. But we live in another
and altogether different era.
Today it is necessary for business
people to have neat stationery if they
intend to occupy Il prominent place
among their competitors.
When you see 3 piece of job print
ing crowded and the type jsmmed
too close together, with dirty. looking
ink and finger marks smeared over
it, on a low grade of paper, it doesn't
speak well for the firm which uses it.
In fact, you don't have the same
opinion of that place as you have of
the man whose stationery is clearly
printed with good ink on the best
grade of paper.
The quality of stationery reflects
the standing of ones business. IL is
therefore a duty you owe to yourself
to have good printing.

HORSE TALK.


Eokno on the housing ana C0r~ -
the F.rmer's Best Frfsna.
The use and value OF farm horses are
often seriously impaired by lack Of
proper stabling.
They are crowded i'm filthy. I'll ven
tilated stables, the air so bad from the
damp urine soaked floors that the har-
ness is rotted by ii.
The eyes and lungs and general
health are injured and disease OF some
kind is sure TO follow.
A side light strains the eye uneQually.
The light should come in the stable
from the front. and the windows
should be lime washed to mellow the
light
a stable should never be dark.
The stable should be well ventilated,
but so carefully that no draft can pos
sibly touch n warm horse.
A draft on horse warm from work
or driving will be sure TO ruin him.
Do not feed from n rack overhead,
as the dust from the hay is apt to be
breathed and is not good for the lungs
A deep Manager is best.
A wide manger for the grain is best
so the grain can be scattered to prevent
boiling.
The stalls should be five feet wide. A
horse cannot rest in a narrower one,
and in wider one he might roll and
get fast.
Look out that the slight settling Of
the barn does not cause the stall floors
TO slope toward the mangers.-Tim In

The oldest chestnut about the dog
which could count sheep and bark as
every hundredth passed through the
gate has been improved upon some
what. The latest version is that Of the
man who owned a bitch and a pup.
When the sheep were running past, the
mother gave zap for every fifty sheep
that passed, and the pup instantly
made q scratch on the ground with its
paw. Thus, after the flock had gone
through fall the man had to do was to
count up the pups tallies to arrive at
the total number OF sheep. It is said
that there are some people who have
not themselves seen this remarkable
instance Of canine sagacity who don't
believe the story.
