In these days of rush and hurry
courtesy is often forgotten. In the mad
pel nell rush of our life things are often
done to offend that we rather remained
undone. A hastily eaten meal and Its
reluctant headache may cause us social
or financial loss. The wise man or
woman is the one who relieves little Ills
of this sort by little dose of Kodol for
Dyspepsia. 1t digests what you eat and
puts your stomach back into shape.

rheumatism lies in purifying aud en-.

Mrs. Frederick Brown, OF 40 Sumptel

from inhammatory rheumatism from
the time she was sixteen. She says
"It first appeared in my knee Joints,
then In my hips aud waist. 1t became
a regular thing that I would DO laid up
all winter. The rheumatism affected
mostly my hands, hips, feet md
shoulders. Ny hands were all puffed
up and my feet became deformed. j
lost my appetite, couldn't sleep and
sometimes l was compelled to cry out.
the pain was so intense.
For several winters l was under the
doctors care and while his medicine re-
lieyed the pain for q little while there
seemed no prospect for n permanent
cure. ] was confined to my bed, off and

swelled dreadfully at times and l was
reduced almost to nothing.

barely eat enough to keep alive. I felt

THE MEN TO TEACH iiORTlCUL-

ttuists In Michi-,n in which he deplored
the teaching OF horticulture by men who
knew little OF their subjects beyond what
was found in text books and the lthen)
rather limited practical work they could
do in the fields connected with the several
state agricultural colleges. a number OF
teachers from the colleges promptly and
forcibly pulled tho arguments to pieces,

urging the points | then advanced. Time
has shown that Will. the education of the

properly the various problems presented
by fruit growing. ON the other side OF the
question is the advantages that would
como to the fruit grower ii ne would learn
some of the science taught in the class
room. 1t has long been ccntended That II
the science and the practice could be conf

who could and would quickly point out

seeing the necessity of combining actual
field work with the class study why can
not the practical fruit grower find some
wav of obtaining the science which the
student learns in the class room. 1T is
proposed hat students go from the class

this is especially true when there is con-
siderable meat ground with the bone. We
use 1T, In very small quantities, scattered
through the chaff on the scratching house

using them in increasing quantities until
the results tell you to stop.

Roosevelt likes to get. n he asked 70;
the giver's name and was sorry not
to get 1t. The cane was the old mans

FARMERS AS FRUIT GROWERS.

OF late years disease ana troublesome IN
sects have made the work Of orchardists
more difficult than formerly, but 1t does
not follow that only an expert can grow
fruit. \ farmer recently remarked, before
an institute. that farmers ought not to
have fruit Of any ind on the farm, giving
as his reason that it took time To care for
that ought to he given to the regular farm
work. Possibly this IS so when it refers &c
an orchard Of considerable size, but 1t Is
assur,lly wrong teachinS to advise, as
this man did and he was upheld by others,
that tho farmer should buy what fruit he
needs for the table. If this advice were
generally taken there would he precious
littir fruit on ,he table of the farmer.
surely fruit growing is not SO hard that Il
farmer cannot make thc Same intclii-

fruit OF various kinds, poultry. eggs and
vegetables in sufficient quantities FOR his
own table without seriously interfering
with the larger farm operations in which
he is engaged. There is room on every
American farm for small fruits and for a

all the fruit needed by the family and the

A New York clergyman some few week.

Mount Airy club. near Philadelphia. N
the course of the game he drove into a
bunker. whcrcupon his partner heard him
exclaim:
"Croton.'
The latter did not understand. but said
nothing. Shortly afterward. upon slicing
his ball into the long grass. the clergyman
again calculated 'Croton!"
What do you mean by that word Gro
