meeting was over.
But somehow he appeared alto
gethcr different when the service be-

first words that he said almost took
our breath away,
my friends said he. i preached

"'rhpn he went on to say that the
church was a place for worship and

IMPROVEMENT OF CATTLE.

Common cows may be easily inn
proved by the aid of the pure breeds,
consequently the improvement will
not be very expensive. There is but
little profit in dairying as long as re-
lance is placed upon the cows that are
picked up and hawked around the
country for sale to dairymen, The
majority Of such cows have vices,
which is sometimes the reason they are
sold, and these vices are rot easily
discovered until the cows are put to
service in the dairy when they are
either sold at sacrifice or kept for
want of something better, Improve

gin with the stock, IL the COWS are

Had it so long my fingers drew up and
could do nothing at all at times, and
tried almost everything that | ever
heard of. including several largely ad-
vertised ointments, spending many
dollars for them. Never a thing did It
any good at all. At last l saw in home
paper Hunts Cure was being adver-
tised and tried only part of one box,
which cost me only so cents, and it
cured them. Now l can wash or do
anything which before | could not
without my fingers bleeding, burning
and paining me very much. If this
ever comes back l surely will know
just what to get. wish every friend
and stranger that had anything of the
kind could have seen my fingers be-
fore | used this and see them now. 1t
