Brain-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly no.
ton that one kind of food is needed for
brain, another for muscles, and still an
other for bones A. correct diet will not
only nourish particular part Of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet however good your food
may be, its nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses Of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A
few doses aids digestion, stimulates the
liver to healthy action, purifes he
blood, and makes you feel buoyant and
vigorous. You can get this reliable
remedy at your druggist. Price 25c and

In the kitchen annex at the home Of.
Louis Hawks, in Fishkill, the unusual
spectacle now is presented Of a duck
ling cumming with three kittens and
the mother cat. The duckling was
Matched all by itself and was brought
in by the kitchen fire. Soon 1t found
its way to where the kittens were
housed. The old cat took kindly to
the newcomer and permitted it to
squat down right among the kittens
and sleep Now the duckling and the
kittens play and romp together, and
the mother cat apparently has come to
look upon the little feathered creature
as one of her own children.
