HANDY ROPE AND RINGS.


the horses mouth for a bride and
around the nose at in Fig. 2, for hal
ter. AS bride it is one of the incest
things to teach colt to lead The
operation is always to pull the colt
sidewise SO as to be sure to move him.
In pulling on the rope it pulls to some
extent through the colts mouth and
cuts and hurts, and the instant the
rope is loosened it quits hurting, and
we do not have to make very many
side pulls until the colt will follow you
at your command. AS a halter it can
be used for horse, COW, calf, sheep,
etc. 1t is very handy to carry; can be
put in the pocket. It comes in good
use to get the horses out of the pasture
In the morning. We can make a halter
with each ring and lead two horses.
The halter will fit any kind and sized
animal
1t is just the thing to ring an old
sow with. Loop it around the upper
jaw and tie her to post or fence, az
in Fig. 8, and she will just stand and
pull back her best, and squeal, and
hold perfectly still for one to put the
ring in, or fill her nose full for that
matter. 1t is easy to get it off of the
nose, for as soon as the rope is united
and let loose the sow can throw it off,
for it will not stick on account of the
ring. 1t is also the same way with the
horse. AS soon as the loop is taken out
of the mouth or from over the nose
by holding to the rope it will unfasten
itself, the loop running through the
ring. 1t is the handiest cheap thing
we have on the farm.-A. S. Forsman,
In Ohio Farmer.

with my nightly rest broken, ow-
ing to irregularities of the kidneys,
suffering intensely from severe pains
in the small of my back and through
the kidneys, and annoyed by painful
passages of abnormal secretions, life
was anything but pleasant for me.
No amount of doctoring relieved this
condition, and for the reason that
nothing seemed to give me even tenn
porary relief, l became about dis
couraged. One day l noticed in the
newspapers the case of man who
was afflicted as I was and was cured
by the use Of Doan's Kidney Pills
His words of praise for this remedy
were SO sincere that on the strength
of his statement l went to the Hugh
Murrey Drug Co.'S store and got a
box l found that the medicine was
exactly as powerful a kidney remedy

In a downtown church, as the story

The Germ Theory,

The discovery of the germ theory is per
haps the most important in the history
of medicine, the discovery of the stomach
of course excepted.
Exhaustive experiments on guinea pigs
have made it clear that mankind cannot
be well without serums.
But such is the character of serums that
nobody will take them unless he il
frightened.
And the germ theory has thrown more
scares into more people than all other
theories put together.
Thus it is not easy to see how we should
manage to have any health to speak Of,
without the germ theory.-Puck.
