Smoked Glasses for Hay Fever.

In Worcester, Mass, there Is a doc
tor by the name Of Stowell. This
doctor has long been subject 20 hay
fever. In studying his own case he
noticed that hay fever came and went
in n very capricious manner, and he
reached the conclusion that 1t was
mostly a nervous disease. Somehow
or other he reasoned himself into the
belief that the suns rays produced
hay fever by acting in some way Upon
the eyes. SO he thought to try
smoked glasses for the eyes, to see II
that would not prevent his hay fever.
He reports that the smoked glasses
gave instant relief But II he went
out in the sun without the glasses he
was sure to have hay fever again. Sc
now he wears smoked glasses and is
happy. He has no more hay fever. He
says he has tried the glasses on two OF
three other patients, and claims that
the same relief is obtained.
We like to report such cases, be
cause It Is seldom that doctors ever
admit that anyone is cured by any
thing except the action of drugs. Sc

should be welcome, If IL be found tC

The Versatile Cowboy,

The question of what became of the
cowboy suggests itself That the old
West is a thing of the past no one dis.
putes. A combination Of unseen OBJ
stacles, such as successive severe
winters, entailing serious losses in cat.
tie, coupled with wire fences and rail
roads, killed the trail in a single year.
Where, in "a, over 100000 cattle cross
ed the northern boundary of Texas at
three fords on Red river, six years
later not single herd passed over the
trail. Then the cow towns of the West
became way stations. and the range
man disappeared. But when the COW
boy unsaddled for the last time it
was not his intention to turn from the
range which he knew and loved. There
were numerous occupations inviting
him, and whether he opened a saloon
or started a bank, he possessed an
advantage in knowing the country,
and its people. While many OF them
can be found following the occupation
of the small ranchman of the present
day, the greater majority turned to
other pursuits. But they are scattered
wide and can be found among the
staid citizens Of nearly any Western
community.

BACON HOG IN DEMAND.

The bacon hog is now attracting q
lot of interest. This class of porclne
has captured the public taste and left
the heavy fat hog in the lurch. The
packing houses demand good bacon
hog and will pay well for it,
The bacon type of hogs has often
been misconstrued, and in many
cases ridlculed, says Southwestern
Stocliman, hut this is done more be-
cause Of lack of knowledge of the real
bacon type than anything else. This
type does not demand n thin hog. as
Is often thought. but hog with Il
thick covering of firm flesh 1t is.
Of course, highly important that this
flesh be lean, and this will follow If
the true bacon breeds are raised. The
bacon hog must possess extreme
length and depth. He must be smooth
and evenly feshed from the shoulders
to the hips, presenting Il neat and
trim appearance. While to Il large
number of people these hogs are
strangers. it would be well for every
farmer to watch their progress, as
they are becoming more numerous
every year.

Flowers that flourished in grand,

Folks who are staying in town, either
from choice or necessity, are ordering
hollyhocks, larkspur, phlox, thrift,

ROADSIDE WEEDS.

The great hotbed of weeds IN com.
munlty is the roadside. The number
Of weeds grown along the roads, and
which are permitted to scatter their
seeds far and wide, is enormous. The
duty of destroying these weeds seems
TO be that of the farmer, but he will
not work on the outside of his fence
rs long as he is busy on the other
side, and he. therefore, spends more
time destroying weeds on his farm
during the growing season than would
be necessary If he kept down the
weeds along the road. But such work
will be useless unless all farmers are
interested, as single thriftless indi-
vldual may undo the efforts of mNny.
1t is a fit subject for discussion In
farmers meetings, and State laNs
should make roadside weed killing
compulsory.

poultry is that they must be kept clean
and free from vermin.

Reflections of a Sinister.

A man wouldn't feel so sorry for the
girls to whom he doesn't propose il
he realized just what those girls think
of him.
It's an awful shock for a married
man to find out that a girl to whom
he has been paying compliments
knew all the time that he was married.
Very few girls bother much over
a broken heart. They always remem-
Der that if a man broke it there are
other men who can repair IL.
The meanest sort of a man is the
one who tries to kiss a girl when he
knows her mother is so near she will
hear If the girl protests.
The sensible girl will marry the man
who consents TO give her regular
allowance, not the one who is wild to
lay the world at her feet.
