the Chicago Tribune, he clasped his
hands around his knees and continued:

not flow fast enough for him. he bleats
impatiently, and almost always, IL he
happens to be standing on all fours
while he Is taking his milk, he paws
the air with bis front feet, n at .
time.
II he sees any OF us setting out for
a walk, he usually wants to go with
us, and, II allowed TO. he walks along
quietly, sometimes In front and
times behind. Yesterday ! took him
for a walk. and he went along well
enough until we came to q shallow
pond by the side of the road. Into the
water he ran. and, this being the first
pond he had ever seen. he acted Just
like a child with a new toy. First he
began to paw the water vigorously
with his fore feet, putting his head
down, and evidently trying to take a
sort OF shower bath. Then he would
galIop about in the pond, or jump right
out Of the water, and come down with
a splash. In frisking about, he finally
lost his footing and fell down, the wa
ter going over his head. When he
arose, 1t was evident that he was not
wet TO the skin; most OF the water
had rolled on, and the rest stood In
drops on the hair, and flew away when
he shook himself. Then he set on for
a run, going at top speed UP hill and
down dale, and clearing stone walls

almost n uniform brown. But his col

bushes and the fallen leaves.
For a long time, We fed the fawn
chiefly IN milk, the amount OF which
was increased until the little fellow
vas taking three quarts a day. But
gradually We gave him more and mora
liberty, and aa he was thus able to
pick up more food for himself the milk
supply was gradually reduced again,
Now, we do not shut him up at all,
but give him the run of q large garden

Of milk, night and morning. But he

Cause Of LockjaW.

Lockjaw or tetanus is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plenti-
fully in street dirt. IL is inactive 80
long as exposed to the air, but when
carried beneath the skin as in the
wounds caused by percussion caps
or rusty nails, and when the air is
excluded the germ is reused to actiy-
ity and produces the most virulent
poison known. These germs may be
destroyed and all danger of lOckjaw
avoided by applying Chamberlain s
Pain Balm freely as soon as the IN
Jury is received. Pain Balm is an
antiseptic and causes cuts, bruises
and like injuries to heal without ma
turation and in one-third the time re-
CURED by the usual treatment. 1t Is

Weak


Are due to indigestion. N~inety-nine Of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges-
ton. II is a scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting 1t up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.
