AN INTERESTING BOOKLET

One Of the most interesting booklets
that we have had brought to our at
tention this year is gotten out by DR..
G. Pusheck, a practicing physician Of
Chicago, as an advertisement for his
remedy Push -kuro. The several
hundred testimonials contained in the
booklet are so evidently genuine and
heartfelt. Some are literal transla-
tons Of letters written in foreign Lam
guages and no attempt is made to
smooth the natural roughness. One
good woman goes on to state: For
six years was suffering agonies and
could not move myself on account Of
my stomach pains and back pains. I
was like gagged, and for weeks was
tiled to bed The balance Of her let
ter is full Of fervent thanksgiving for
the cure effected by Push-kuro. The
remedy is evidently making a wonder
full record Of cures in cases Of rheu-
matism, stomach or liver troubles,
blood and nerve diseases, weakness
and general debility. It is for sale at
nearly all drug stores. but if the drug
glst tries to offer you some substitute.
it would be safer to send direct to DR..

in contact with girls who wore shoes as

FEET OF CHICAGO WOMEN
English Student Proves They Are Smaller
Than Those OF New York !

There appears to be reasonable found,
alton for the assertion made recently by
the Honorable Mary selby before the
Women's Physical Culture club of London
that the feet of American girls are larger
in the present generation than they were
a generation ago. Miss Selby, who has
unlimited time and unlimited money and
little else to do except cultivate fad, has
been making study Of pediculture in diff
ferent countries. She went thru France.
Germany. Switzerland and Australia
studying the feminine foot, and wound up
her investigation in America, beginning in
ST. Louis and ending in New York.
AS a result of observations the Honor
able Mary has prepared a thesis. which
she has had printed in an edition de luxe
for distribution among her friends in
England The title, "The Female Foot"
is as inelegant as it is inexpensive. The
author says her exploration among the
lower extre1nities of her sisters In this
country convinces her that New York
women have the largest and the least
beautiful feet in America. Il was led to
believe" she writes, ''that the foot of
the Chicago woman was SO large as to be

/ Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

a Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished and
put back or they may be removed en-
tirely; bones are spliced; pipes taken
the place of diseased sections of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied. to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before Inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without matura-
tion and in one-third the time required
by the old treatment. Chamberlain's
Pain Balm acts on this same principle.
It is an antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save you time
and money, not to mention the incon-
venience and suffering which such
injuries entail. For sale by all drug

The COW, - well as any other farm
stock, will pay better profit II treated
kindly.
A COW is profitable just as long as she
gives profitable return for the food
she consumes.
The best cream raising can only be
secured by keeping the milk sweet a.
long as possible.
To q very considerable extent tho mat
ter OF notable performances is wholly
an individual function.
Loseof flesh and shrinkage Of milk fol-
iews neglect, and starvation follows ra-
tions of improper food.
A combination Of bran. oil meal and
corn meal makes one Of the best rations
for dairy cows in winter.
Garget most often sets in after calv-
ing, and tkis is nearly always due to a
failure to get the udder dry. -
Milk regularly twice@a day. If COW
does not give sudtent amount of milk
to warrant this, 1t her go dry.
The dairy COW is Z Matchmaking me-
dunn and should be kept in the best

Many Of the cows kept on the farm
cannot, either by feed or care, e einduced
to yield b profitable amount Of milk. The
sooner this class Is fattened and mar
keted, the better for the profits of the
farm.
The best foods to make blood are the
best for milk production, and the COW to
make good milk needs good blood. That
can best and cheapest be made by gener-

How to Clean the Churn,,

A churn cannot be made clean with a
dirty cloth, and a cloth Of this kind is
one of the best known places for breed
ing disease germs, and these may be
washed from the seams of the pans or
corners Of the churn. 1t takes only a
few minutes to wash the cloths in cold
water, and then they should be put in
a strong pearline suds and allowed to
boil for at least 20 minutes, then they
should be rinsed and hung out in the
air and sunshine, and if this is done every
few days, the cloths may be always kept
white and sweet smelling. - Midland
