agents we're to take care of the trees
which were to be eight feet high in
three years. Now the buyer is to pay
$25. in the fall and $50. after the three
years are up. Then the buyer signs
the note and the talk is that they will
have to pay the $75. in the fall or do
your own planting. We understand
a few were raked in but are glad to
know that the people are waking up
up to such games.

Among the Japanese.

The japanese understood electricity
as an attractive force, of which they
were very secret. The Greeks and Ro-
mans also knew something of the mag
net as an attractive force known to
modern science as an electrical attrac-
ton, something like the loadstone of
the Chinese. They are supposed to be
ignorant Of its popularity, though in
their secret records there are mentions
of sacred forces which none but God
knew and must not be tempered with
by man.

Dlsiooated Her shoulder.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, of Fer
gus Falls, Mimi, fell and dislocated
her shoulder. She had surgeon get
it back into place as soon as possible
but it was quite sore and panied her
very much. Her son mentioned that
he had seen Chamberlain Pain Balm
advertised for sprains and soreness,
and she asked him to buy her bottle
of it, which he did. 1t quickly reliev-
ed her and enabled her to sleep which
she had not done for several days.
The son was so much pleased with the
relief it gave his mother that he has
since recommended it to many others.

Umbrellas and Religious Services.

Umbrellas have always been init
mately associated with religious serv-
ices in Catholic churches. They were
introduced in the church services of the
Byzantine church, are borne over the
host in procession and form part of the
pontifical regalia as well as that of II
cardinal. 1t is quite likely that the car
dinals hat is derived from the UNI
brella.
In Italian heraldry vermilon UNI
brella in field argent signifies domin-
ion. The Harleian manuscripts have
at least one drawing of an Anglo-SaXon
gentleman whose servant shades him
with 4 sort of umbrella having curved
handle and evidently not meant to
close

It Rains Every Seven Days.

If it rains on the first Sunday of the
month it is morally certain to rain on
two or three of the other Sundays.
Why it is so no one knows unless it be
that transforms in this country come at
intervals about seven days apart, and
if the rain happens to hit the first Sum
day the other rainy Sundays follow as
a natural consequence. The coincidence
has been noted too often to doubt that
it really exists.-Exchange

In ancient times funerals were fol-
lowed by professional mourners, who
simulated the appearance Of the wild
est grief. The custom survives III the
valley of Sondrio, in the Alps. There
the women do not follow the funeral,
but they group themselves at the en-
trance of the cemetery and burn, in
honor of the dead. candles which vary
in size. according to the remuneration.
They are as prodigal as were the
mourners of ancient times in their sim
ulation of excessive grief.

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.
