Bait Box Ready for Business,

The Rev. NJ Fl. Smith, while pastor
of the Methodist Episcopal church Of
South Londonderry, Vt, preached at
least one sermon which will be re.
membered by those who heard it. His
text was, Follow me and | will make
you fishers of men"
Now the minister was a great lover
Of trout fishing, and his baby boy of
4, who was then making mud pies in
the parsonage yard nearby, knew it
well. Hearing his father talking
about fishing, and wishing to help
papa get ready, he got the bait box
and, trudging up the center aisle
straight to the pulpit, he held it up
and said, Here's your bait box, papa"
Luckily for the minister, he was
nearly through, and he managed to
finish without a smile.

In breaking heavy colt which is in

THREE FACTS
For Sick Women
To Consider

FrRsr.-That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect OF
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
of the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing down pains, nervousness, dir
ziness and sleeplessness.
SEcoND.-The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, infiam-
nation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. 1t has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
THIRD.-The great volume of unso-
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation
tOWOmen.--Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter
in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been adj
vising sick women free of charge Outof
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish if she doesnot take
advantage of this generous offer of
assistance.

Babes In the Mood.

1t is not alone in our great English
cities that children are to be found
who have never known the joys of a

were until a short time ago, two, at
least of them in Berlin. But at last
fortune CHANGED their way, and into
the country they were taken. They
were not at first favor ably impressed
with what they saw, gazing about
them with stolid disfavor. But in
time they came to where a flock of
sheep were feeding in field. Then,
indeed, little Max opened his eyes.

More Sheep Wanted.

Sheep are doubly valuable
for man, as they produce
both wool and meat. In some
countries they also are the milk pro-
ducers. Wool clothing is much more
healthful than cotton, as it protects
the body from the changes of tempera-
ture which many times prove fatal.
Wool does not burn rapidly while
cotton is very infammable. Many a
person that has been burned to death
when their clothing has taken fire,
would have been saved if their cloth
ing had been of wool.

Tauuht hX Mistakes

Multitudes OF people have started
out to raise poultry, and meeting a
disaster, or perhaps several of them,
have given up in dispair This is just
what they should not have done. 1t
is a general rule that people without
experience going into the raising of
poultry make various mistakes and
have disasters. But these mistakes
are very valuable as teachers. Some
times it teaches what to do, but al
ways what not to do. Early failures
help to make later successes. After
a man has made many mistakes he is
in a position to carry on his business
successfully. in the business world
it is a notorious fact that many of the
men that have made the greatest sue
cess have done so because they have
learned how to succeed by having
failed in some of their first undertake
ings. We are taught by our mis-
takes.

Do Not Spray Blossoms.

Trees should not be sprayed when
in bloom. The spray will kill
many of the blossoms and
also the bees that may be
visiting them. The bees are the
agents that cross pollenate the
blooms. After the petals have fallen
is time enough to spray, but it should
be done then Immediately.

Oddities of English.

Bribery is word with a curious
history. In the old Geneva Bible it is
said of the scribes and pharisees that
they make clean the outer side of the
cup and of the platter, but within they
are full of bribery" The authorized
version has "extortion," and there is
no doubt that by bribery" the Gen
eva Bible meant robbery. Bribery"
probably meant originally a morsel,
a broken-off piece, but it occurs first
in old French, signifying a piece of
bread given to a beggar Hence the
Italian "birba," vagrancy, and the old
French 'bribeur," a beggar or greedy
devourer. "Bribe" developed in two
directions-in the senses of robbery
and of present. When Falstaff
speaks of "a bribed buck" he means
not one that has been corrupted, but
one that has been stolen

Arrangements in the Poultry House

Arrangements in the Poultry House.
All the internal arrangements in the
poultry house should be movable. as
in that way only is a man able to
wage a successful war against mites,
lice and disease. If he has dropping
board under the roosts, this dropping
board should be merely hinged or
bolted to the wall so that it may be
readily removed The things under
it should be removable and so should
the roosts themselves. 1t really re-
quires very little work to make the
arrangements as above, and after the
work is once done it will be a great
saving in time in the cleaning out of
the poultry house and in it's thorough
fumigation when disease comes.
