The Shirt OfWintar.

The Spirit OF Winter is with us, max.
ing its presence known in many different
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine
and glistening SHOWS. and sometimes by
driving winds and binding storms. To
MANY people it seems to take deligh,
in making bad things worse. for rheuma
tism twists harder, twinges sharper. ca
tarrah becomes more annoying, and the
many SYMPTOMS OF scrofula are developed
and aggravated. There is not much poe
try in this, but there is f'zkh, and il is a
wonder that more people don't get rid OF
these ailments. The medicine that cures
them Hoods SarsapariIla--is easily OBJ
tanned and there is abundant proof that
its cures are radical and permanent.

THEY SAW The SMOKE.
But They Declined TO Act Upon tho
Warming.

Once Vesuvius destroyed two italian
cities in few hours. The people saw the
smoke from the volcano but failed to
escape in time.
Where there is smoke there is fire and
where there are symptoms of one of the
most dangerous of diseases. A feeling of
languor, a sense of weakness and wearincss,
drowsiness, giddincss and mental discon-
fort. lad taste in the mouth-the old

headache, neuralgia, heartburn, n feeling

furred like the moss on u tree, irritability,

Have you any of these symptoms?
Either now or sometimes Yes" you say,
"but don't think they are dlngerous."
They are signs of danger. They snow that
the eruption is coming.
Now what lies at the bottom of all these
symptoms? Indigestion, dyspepsia, and an
overworked liver. There is but one help,
one remedy. Slow up, and for the mis-

Tapping Maple Trees.

There are some fine points to be obser
we'd even in such a simple matter as tap
ping "A sugar maple tree. Here are five
points just for instance
Point 1.-Only sharp bit should be
used,-one that will make a cleancut hole.
Point 1.-The hole need not be more than
three inches deep. The Investigations of
the Vermont Experiment Station have
shown that hardly any sap comes from
n greater depth.
Point 3-The hole should be carefully
cleaned of chips. because even very
small quantity of waste matter will clog
the spout, obstruct the flow of sap, and
seriously reduce the yield of sugar.
Point IA spout should be chosen of
such a pattern as will allow the freest
flow of sap. 1t should interfere with the
wood tissue of the tree as little as pos
sible. The bark, rather than the wood,
should play an important part in holding
the spout firm.
Point 5.-The spout should he strong en-
ouGh, and its hold on the tree firm
enough. so that it will safely support the
sap bucket Moreover the spout should
he easy to insert and easy to remove. The
various spouts commonly sold at the hard
ware stores differ materially in their mer-
its when judged by the foregoing tests.
The sugar maker will do well to examine
them all carefully before buying his sup
ply for the coming season
