$50 that is the tail end of the tele-
gram which Godfrey Staunton dis
patched within Il few hours of his dis
appearance. There are at least six
words of the message which have es-
capped us, but what remains Stand by
us for Gods sake!-proves that this
young man saw formidable dan
ger which approached him, and from
whlc some one else could protect
him. Us, mark you. Another person
was involved. Who should it be but
the pale faced, bearded man, who
seemed himself in so nervous a state?
What then, is the connection between
Godfrey Staunton and the bearded
man? And what is the third source
from which each of them sought for
help against pressing danger? Our in
quirE has already narrowed down to
that"

Exactly, my dear Watson. Your re-
Election, though profound, had already
crossed my mind. But / dare say it
may have come to your notice that if
you walk into a postoffice and demand
to see the counterfeit Of another mans
message there may be some disinclina-
tion on the part of the officials to oblige
you There is so much red tape in
these matters. However. I have no
doubt that with little delicacy and
tnesse the end may be attained. Mean

Girls modesty and oversensitiveness
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, because they withhold their
confidence 1T this critical period.
A mother should come to her child's
aid and remember that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound will at this
time prepare the system for the coming
chans, and start the menstrual period
in q young girls life without pain or
irregularities.
Miss Emma Coleof Tullahoma, Tenn,
writes: -
Dear Mr.. Pinkham-
"1want to tell you that I am enjoying bet
ter health than have for years, and owe
tau to Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
When fourteen years of age suffered al
most constant pain, and for two or three
years had soreness and pain in my side,
headaches and was dizzy and nervous, and
doctors all failed to help me.
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
wss recommended, and after taking it my
health began to improve rapidly, and think
it saved my life. Isincerely hope mye1peri-
once will be help to other girls who are pass
ing from girlhood to womanhood, for know
your Compound viii do as much for them"
you know of any young girl who is
sick and needs motherly advice ask her
to write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass,
and she will receive free advice which
will put her on the right road to astrong,
healthy and happy womanhood.

GROWING ALFALFA.
Several Points to Be Noted by the
Former a. Suggested by Ex-
pertinent Station.

In bulletin 46, Just issued, J. H. Girls
dale, central experiment farm, Ottawa,
summarizes the points to be noted in
growing alfalfa as follows:
1. Sow sufficient seed.
2. Sow good seed; that is, germinable
seed.
8. Sow on well-prepared land in good
state of fertility.
4. Sowing without Nurse crop over
comes in some measure poverty of soil.
s. Proper preparation Of the right
kind of seeded and careful observance
of directions for first year treatment
are necessary to secure long series of
remunerative crops.
6. Before sowing be sure that q suffi-
cheney Of plant food exists in the surface
soil to grow good crop Gao bushels to
the acre) of oats.
Z Do not SOW on poorly drained land;
well drained should mean drained to .
depth of at least two feet.

SEED THOUGHTS.

The chief value OF paint is in ap-
pearance, but this is money.
A runty pig may be properly defined
as one that eats it's head OF about
three times a year.
Alfalfa hay is fine for young calves
Turn the sheep in he tunip field
and let them harvest the crop.
Last call to look at the farm build
ings. If they are not in good repair
put them in proper shape at once.
Do not try, to winter calves nor
colts on late cut hay. Their som
achs are not strong enough to di-
gest it.
Don't neglect to oil the bearings Of
farm tools and wagons. Neglect short
ems their life and weNH out tbs
horssY.
