TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About Food.

When there's no relish to any food and
all that one eats doesn't seem to do any
good then is the time to make turn
over in the diet, for that's Natures way
of dropping hint that the food isn't the
kind required.
For a number of years | followed
railroad work, much of it being office
work of trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest and eating too much
and too quickly of food such as Is COM
monty served in hotels and restaurants,
these together with the sedentary habits
We're not long in giving me dyspepsia
and stomach trouble which reduced my
weight from 205 to 160 pounds.
There was little relish in any food and
none of it seemed to do me any good. 1t
seemed the more l ate the poorer got
and was always hungry before another
meal, no matter how much had eaten
Then | commenced a fair trial or
Grape-Nuts and was surprised how
small saucer of it would carry me along,
strong and with satisfied appetite, until
the next meal, with no sensations OF
hunger, weakness or distress as before.
81 have been following this diet now
for several months and my improvement
has been so great all the others in my
family have taken up the use of Grape
Nuts with complete satisfaction and
much improvement in health and brain
power.
American people undoubtedly eat
hurriedly, have lots of worry, thus hind
ering digestion and therefore need a food
that is predigested and concentrated in
nourishment." Name given by Postum

The Gopher as a Plowman.

Darwin concluded that the earth
worm in five years brings up soil
enough to cover the ground one inch
thick, and that, therefore, the result OF
its labor is of vast Importance. reck-
on that the pocket-gopher does this in
five months. 1t does not do it in the
same way or so effectively, because
the earthworm actually digests the
substance of its castings; but it is evil
dent that the pocket-gopher's method
answers the purpose of fully disinte-
grating and mixing the dead vegeta-
tion with the soil to produce n rich
and fertile black loam.--Ernest
Thompson. in Century.

IHE WHISTLER,

Throughout the sunny day he whistled on
his way,
ON high and low, and gay and sweet,
The melody rang down the street
Till all the weary, worn and gray,
Smiled at their work, or stopped to
say:
Now God be thanked that youth is
fair
And light of heart and free from
care"
What time the wind blew high, he whis-
tied and went by.
Then clarion clear every side
The song was scattered far and wide;
Like birds above "A storm that fly,
The silver notes scared to the sky:
''Oh! soul whose courage does not fail
But with song can meet the gale
And when the rain fell fast, he whistlcd
as he passed:
A little tune the whole world knew,
A song of love, of love most true;
On through the mist it came at last
To one by sorrow overcast:
Dear Christ she said, by night and
day
They serve who praise-as well as pray
And when the fog hung gray. he whistled
on his way.
The little children in his train,
With rosy lips caught up the strain.
Then /, to hear what he might say,
Followed with them, that somber day;
rs it for joy of life quoth I,
Good sir. you go a-whistling by"
He smiled and sighed and shook his
head:
al cheer my own sad heart" he said

A good story of an old crofter who
appeared before the commission to
apply for reduction of rent has just
been told at a meeting in Glasgow.
The number of cattle on the farm led
Sheriff Brand to observe that surely
the croft could not be in such a bad
way as its owner would seek to SHOW.
Och" replied the old fellow you
should see the bit beasties." What
like are they?" queried the sheriff
They're as lean, sir, as Pharaoh's
kine." How lean was that?" pawkily
asked the sheriff, doubtless thinking
that he had cornered the applicant.
But had he? Not bit. Like a flash
came back the answer: 80 lean, sir,
that they could only be seen in a
vision. yorkshire Post

PLEASANT WORK FOR GIRLS.
Government Will Give Help Free to
Those Who Want to Try Silk
Worm Culture.

The department of agriculture is in
vestigating the possibilities of silk
worm culture in the United States. To
persons wishing to experiment, and
who can furnish proper food for the
worms, the department is distributing
free of charge a small quantity of silk
worm eggs, and also a manual of in
structions. The proper food for silk
worms consists of leaves from the diff
ferent varieties of white mulberry tree
and the Usage orange. The paper null
berry with the fuzzy leaves) is not
suitable, nor is the common red null
berry. AS the season is now open ap-
plicatiOns for the eggs should be made
at once, and must be accompanied by
statement as to the number and kind
of mulberry trees or the amount of
Usage orange which the applicant pos
sesses, otherwise the eggs will not be-
sent. If the variety of the raulberry is
cot known to the applicant sample Of
large leaves should be seIt to the de-
partment The department of agricui-
ture buys the cocoons which the worms
spin, paying for them (after they have
been dried) rs cents to one dollar a
pound, according to their quality. Tho
work will prove an interesting pastims
for women and children who can de-
vote to it odd minutes during the day.

The First Hunting Dog.

1t is, by the way, curious thing
that the setter should not have been
used with the gun until long after the
pointers utility in this way was rec
Cgnized. The sportsman Of Edward
Ills time who caught pheasants and
partridges in nets depended for assist
ance in finding his game on a dog Of
sumo sort which was taught to sit"
OF sci" but not until the middle of
the eighteenth century or thereabputs
was the setter much used with the gun.
The pointer, on the other hand, was
imported from Spain somewhere about
the beginning of the eighteenth CEN
tury, at the time when progressive
gunners were beginning to realize that
they could shoot birds flying; and the
Spanish pointer, or doube-nosed point
er, as he is called by old writer's, be-
came the gun dog at once. Col
Thomas Thornton, of Thornton Royal
who devoted his life to field sports,
was the man who remodeled the an
cestor of the modern pointer. He con-
sidered the dog of his day too SLOW
and by crossing the Spanish pointer
with the foXhound obtained greater
speed and stamina, but at some loss of
nose and dociiity.-E. d. Cumming, in

Farmers as Business Men.

Successful farmers must be business
men. There is no more reason why
they should succeed with careless
methods than should the manufacturer
1t is just as important that the farmer
know how much it costs him to raise a
hog and to care for horse or produce
a bushel of corn or oats as it is for the
wagon maker to know what it costs to
manufacture wagon. When this part
of the business is looked after more
carefully, there will be less foundation
for complaints OF Improbable seasons,
mortgaged farms and the unprofitable-
ness of agriculture in general-Ameri-
man Agriculturist.
