very large sum to raise in one year but
Mr.. Hinckley expects to raise it without
resorting to methods other than those
which have heretofore been 80 success

expenses; part will go for permanent
improvements; part to the endowment

coming from? lido not know. Churches
Sunday-schools, endeavor societies,

and individuals will contribute. 1t will

The Forcing of Pole beans.

The forcing of dwarf or bush beans
under glass has been favorite prac-
tice at certain seasons of the year with
most gardeners, but the use of the pole
or running varieties is just beginning
to receive attention. The pole bean,
like cucumbers, tomatoes trained to one
stem, sweet corn. etc, must have plen-
ty of head room or space above the
bench or bed in which to develop, and
doubtless this accounts for its not hav-
ing been considered heretofore. The
modern lettuce and cucumber houses
with the beds directly on the ground
are well adapted for this crop. The
soil should be well enriched, contain
ing an abundance of available plant
food, preferably a sandy loan COM
posted by mixing equal parts of rich
dark loan, sand and manure. The
beds may be made directly upon the
ground, with the prepared soil averag-
ing about seven inches in depth. Den

I We often learn of marvellous surgical
operations-of a man having his stomach

replaced by silver one in the spine, and
of other wonderful feats, and we read of

is made from some terrible disease-by
the use of medicine - people do not

years, loses his strength, flesh, endurance;
wastes away from stout manhood to

by its great and peculiar action upon the

else. Ex-senator Hanson, of Massachu-
sets, whose home is in Lowell, Mass,
has this to say of " Blood Vino"
II think Blood Wlne'is q wonderful medi-
cine. The effect that il has on a debiliated sys-
TEN is almost beyond comprehension, and
don't believe there IA a disease of the blood, or
a disease produced by n condition of the blood

Senator Hanson is man who wouldn't
have anything but the best. He is o
man of great executive ability, and very
active brain. He uses "Blood Wine"
right along to keep his brain clear and
active, and his body free from ache or
pain. Thousands of people do the same.
"Blood Wine" never disappoints. If
you are in bad health and you take
''Blood Wine," you are just as sure to
feel better as the sun is sure to rise and
set. 1t cures disease by working on the
blood. Blood is life, and "Blood Wine"
eradicates all the elements of disease
from the blood that rob US of life.
