are many; in fact almost every serious
illness has its origin in constipation, and
some medicines, instead of preventing con
stipation, add to it. This is true of most
beneficial effect, but the dose has to be
continually increased and before long the
remedy ceases to have the slightest effect
There is one preparation, however, that
can be relied upon to produce the same
results with the same dose. even after
fifty years daily use, and this is Brand
reth's Pills, which has a record of over
100 years as the standard remedy for con-
stipation and all troubles arising from an
impure state of the blood.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine lax
ative tonic pill your grandparents usec
and can be found in every drug and medl
cine store, either plain or sugar-coated.

The ASUara.us Pest.

Kindly insects help in the destruc-

bug, some snake feeders, or dragon

larvae Of this beetle. Ducks and chick
ems are fond of them. Air Stacked
lime busted on the dew wet leaves
destroys the pest, or the ends of tho
branches where they congregate may
be cut and burned. The same rene
dies hold good for the spotted beetle,
but his fayorite place of hiding is in
the berry, so these should be cut and
burned as fast as they form.

Hot Plates.

In cold weather the viands on the
table cool so quickly that the family is
often forced to eat lukewarm vegeta-
bles, which are unpalatable ut any time
and particularly so on cold days In
order that they may lose their heat as
little as possible after being taken
from the hot covered dishes the plates
should be warmed before being put at
each plate. They should not be
warmed in the oven or they will crack,
but if put on the mantel above the
range for while when the meal is
being prepared they will warm stuff

Tomato jelly.

Tomato jelly makes dainty salad
but care must be taken not to use too
much gelatine, or the salad will lose
its flavor. Peel and stew the tomatoes.
Soften an ounce OF gelatin in half q

hot tomato pulp and stir until dissolved.
Add a teaspoonful of salt. tablespoon
full of onion juice and a teaspoonful of
paprika Strain through Il fine sieve
and pour into a mold to harden. \
pretty method is to mold it in tiny
brick forms; small oblong paper boxes
may be used if preferred When firm

Keep the Hens at Work.

To prevent disease keep the hens at
work by making them scratch for their
grain food. Overlooking is the cause
of bowel diseases in the summer, or,
rather, too much concentrated food is
given, and not enough of that which is
bulky If the quarters are kept clean
there is little danger Of contagious dis
ease unless an addition is made to the
flock by bringing a bird from some
other farm. When new blood is
wanted procure a sitting of eggs of the
breed desired, as it is very important
that when the coops are clean. and the
fowls free from disease, no fowls from
other places be introduced, as flock
may thus be stocked with lice or in
ifected with disease.
