Isn't This Absolutely True?


Nothing ever became popular-here
or in any other country-without a
reason.
Popular men have merit of some
kind, MUST have, or they would not
be popular.
They must have EXCEPTIONAL
MERIT and wonderful character If
their popularity INCREASES WITH
TINE.
AS with men, SO WITH GOODS.
So with any article that is on the
market. IT CANNOT INCREASE ITS
SALES, it cannot be adopted as a
STANDARD article, it cannot survive
generations unless it have real, inner
ent merit
Millions of dollars spent in advertis-
ing any article without merit are just
wasted, so far as continued sales are
concerned. Intelligent housekeepers
cannot be compelled to buy what they
do not approve Of.
That much is a self-evident fact. II
cannot be gainsaid. But it tells its
own story Of LION COFFEE and It's
quality coffee that has been the
leader of all package coffees for more
than a quarter Of century, that has
steadily grown in the affections of mill
ions of American homes since its first
introduction, long. long ago.
It's uneXcelled flavor, perfect purity
and uniform quality; its absolute clean
liness and neat appearance, have en-
deared 1t to the hearts of the people.
Good grocers will tell you his, but
those who drink coffee ought to know
| much more about quality than they
who simply SELL 1t.

is to work more or less along the line
of in-breeding which results in i'm
paired vitality in the young, indicated
by goitre, tuberculosis and other trou-
bles. OF course, the new blood may
be introduced through the boar, but it
Is also a good plan to change the brood
sows occasionally.
One of the best swine breeders in
the country used different boars for
different sows and watches results
closely. He has found that the prog
eny Is improved and that frequently
the young from a brood sow that had
dropped only Indifferent pigs for sew
eral years was greatly improved by
the service from another boar; while
the first boar mated with another sow
would give excellent returns. There
is more In mating than most farmers
understand, and the same results often
obtain in mating other animals. The
writer has demonstrated this more
thoroughly among poultry and has had
some surprising results.

WHY THEY ARE HAPPY
TWO NOTABLE RECOVERIES FROM
EXTREME DEBILITY.

Husbands Strength Had Been Waning for
Three Years, Wife Sufferer from
Female Weakness.
"My strength had dwindled so that I
couldn't apply myself to my business
with any snap but was tired and istless
all the time,' SAID Mr.. Goldstein.

neys got ont of order and caused me to
have severe pains in the back. At one
time became so feeble that / could not
stir from bed for three weeks"
Mr.. Goldstein is young man and had
then but recently established home of
his own. His anxieties were increased
by the fact that his wife was far from
being robust Mrs. Goldstein says:
"For two years had been i'll most of
the time. Sometimes I was confined to
bed for weeks in succession under ply
sician's care. had headaches, kidney
trouble, pain about the heart and many
more uncomfortable symptoms con-
nected with that weakness to which my
sex is peculiarly subject"
Trouble had invaded this household
and settled in it in just the years that
ought to be the very happiest. Physicians
could not tell them how to get rid of it.
81 was utterly discouraged, said Mr..
Goldstein. 'Then the urgency of some
friends led me to try q blood and nerve
remedy which was said to be wonder
fully successful. Within month there
were unmistakable signs of improvement
in my condition, and within a year /
was completely well. Through the use
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills have now
as good health as lever had in my life. "
Mrs. Goldstein adds: 1.-THE wonderful
effect that DR.. Williams Pink Pills had
in the case Of my husband led me to try
them and they helped me even more
quickly than they did him. One box
made me decidedly better and a few
months treatment cured me-"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the best
tonic and regulator, they make pure,
rich blood and when there is general
weakness and disorder that is what the
system needs. Mr.. and Mrs. H. Goldstein
live at 88 Cove street, East Boston, Mass.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
druggists everywhere.

Brooder-Raised Chickens.

Naturally enough the brooder-raised
chick does not learn to feed itself so
we'll as the chick who runs with the
old hen. Most people who raise
chicks in brooders do very well in the
feeding during the breadcrumb and the
oatmeal period, but there is danger in
prolonging these days and not starting
the chicks to grow as soon as one
ought.
When they are three or four weeks
old they should have more substantial
meals; there Is nothing better for bone
and muscle-forming than a dry mash
composed of wheat, corn and oats,
ground and well mixed and moistened
with milk mot sour until 1t will crum-
BILE like bread. This mash should be
fed at morning and night, while at
noon a little finely cracked corn should
be scattered through some fine straw,
SO that they will scratch for 1t. Then
the green food should be given, sew
.eral times daily and in small quanti-
ties.
Do not feed them anything in the
way of animal food until they are
turned on to the range, where they
will learn to catch insects and thus
get all of this sort of food they will
need until fall. Above all things. do
not neglect the cool, fresh water, and
the abundance of shade; then fix a
little corner where there Is some dry
and rather sandy soil in which they
can dust and sun themselves. These
habits will fix them quickly If they
are started soon enough, and the chick
will make all the better pullet and hen
in consequence.

BOYS TOOK A LONG WALK.
Wanted to See the President, Walked
100 Miles to Do 1t.

100 Miles to Do 1t.
Two young men Of Grand junction,
Col, recently had strenuous time.
They decided upon walking to the
camp of Theodore Roosevelt, who was
on hunting trip to Garfield County,
the next county east of Mesa, and
about 100 miles from the city.
Their names are Daniel Carpenter
and Whipple Chester. Chester is Is
years old and Carpenter II.
On Friday forenoon the boys left
the city on foot. taking the Rio Grande
Junction railroad track east and walk
ed to De Beque, where they spent the
night; and the next day proceeding
on their way to Glenwood. where they
arrived during the day. After remain
ing overnight there an6 most of Sun
day they started for New Castle and
when they arrived at that place they
hunted up a ranchman and stopped
over night. Next morning the boys
left for Camp Roosevelt, arriving there
at p. m.
The President was sitting at ia
BILE with Secretary Loeb engaged in
writing or debating letters. They ap-
preached and Mr.. Roosevelt arose and
extended his hand, giving each a cor
dial welcome. Carpenter and Chester
told him that they had come 100 miles
from Grand Junction, walking more
than half the distance, just to greet
him.
The President was highly elated
with the idea of the boys walking so
far to get a glimpse of the chief ex-
ecutive of the greatest nation on the
face of the earth, and he extended to
them many little courtesies. He asked
them many questions about Grand
Junction, made many inquiries as to
their trip and told them something of
his extensive hunting experience.
Learning that the boys had not had
supper, he asked the cook to prepare
them a meal, which consisted of bear
steak, canned corn, camp biscuits,
chow chow, coffee and milk.
After supper the boys had another
conversation with the President and
he gave them his autograph and also
allowed them to take several views of
the camp.

your children.
The relation of the nerves and gen.

Locality and Corn Varieties.

An instructor at the Illinois Agrlcul-
tural College recently said to group
OF farmers, relative to corn: There Is
more difference between the same va
rieties grown in different localities
than there Is between the different va
rieties grown in the same locality"
This is rather strong statement
and we do not believe it can be sub
stantiated in toto, for there is certain
~ great difference between Boone
County white and Leaning corn even
when grown in the same township.
We judge, however, that the instruct
or was merely using little extreme
language to point a relative truth. He
doubtless meant that certain allied
varieties of corn were more affected
by locality than by varietal difference.
1t has been demonstrated again and
again that locality does very greatly
affect the corn plant, much more than
some other kinds of grains grown on
the farm. This is due doubtless to the
great changes that have taken place in
tie corn plant In the last fifty years.
So much is this the case that some
seed houses grow corn In certain latl-
tudes for sale only in those ATTITUDES.
One seed house some years ago pub
lished chart giving .-.e isosthermal
lines and noting on the chart what
kinds of corn to order for each terri
tory.
The professors at the agricultural
colleges recognize this truth, but few
are as yet able to distinctly define 1t.
There are more men studying corn in
more localities than ever before, and
the mass Of evidence that is being ac-
cumulated will determine many OF the
questions that We are now asking.

Spiders are VIGOROUSLY and historically
fond of music. At performance in
America recently the concert hall was
made disagreeable By a sudden invasion
of spiders, which were draw by a violin
solo from the cracks and crannies of the
ancient building. They crawled about
the floor and on to the stage.

Marketing PorItry.

If the poultry raised for market has
been well raised, it is worth all pos
sible care to dress it so 1t will show
up to the best advantage. Whether
the birds are drawn or not will depend
upon the demands Of the market, al
though private consumers will be glad
to have this unpleasant work done for
them and to pay for 1t. In dressing
the carcasses be careful not to bruise
the skin, and always remove the pin
feathers before marketing the birds.
If there is a possibility Of working
up a good trade among private GUS
toners, 1t is worth while to try some
fancy ideas, such as cutting off the
feet and tying the legs together with
clean white cord or even ribbon. Try
wrapping each carcass In a square of
clean white cloth, or even in heavy
tissue oiled paper; be sure and have
the oiled paper, so it will not cling to
the carcass. The clean cloth is the
best, however, and you'll be surprised
to see how dainty people will take
to the idea, and to your pront.
