Hints for Farmers.

Sod Flowing in the fall will help kill
out the white grubs.
Aeration of the soil Is one great
benefit from blowing.
Haul in a good supply of dry earth

Have you a good pile of fire wood
cut, split and piled where it is dry and
handy?
Farming demands a mans best eff.
fort. No use to try to work any old
scheme and expect uccess.
Root up the old, unproductive fruit
trees and plant in their place young,
vigorous trees from the nursery.
If not, attend to 1t now SO the WON

IKE A FAIRY TALE.
The Story Of Postum Cereal In Words
and Pictures.

The growth Of the Postum Cereal
Co. is like a fairy tale, but it is true,
every word Of it.
1.-The Door Unbolted" is the title Of
a charming little booklet just issued
by the Company which tells, and IL
Illustrates, the story of this remark
able growth. 1t takes the reader from
the little white barn in which the
business was started Jan. 1, 1895,
through the palatial offices and great
factory buildings of the white City"
that comprise Postumville, Battle
Creek, Mich.
The little white barn, SO carefully
preserved, is a most interesting build
ing, for 1t represents the humble be-
ginning of m Of the %country's great
est manufacturing enterprises Of to-
day, an enterprise that has grown
from this little barn to a whole city
of factory buildings within but little
more than ten years.
No less Interesting is the quaint Of
fetal home of the Postum Cereal Co.
The general Office building Of Mr.. Post
and his associates is a reproduction Of
the Shakespeare house at Stratford-
on-Avon, and upon the house and its
furnishings has been expended vast
sums of money, until the rooms are
more like the drawing room Of the
mansions OF our multi-millionaires
than like Offices.
That Mr.. Post has believed thor
oughly in the idea Of giving to his
employees attractive and healthful
work rooms is proven not only by the
general office building of the Company
and its furnishings, but by his fac
tories as well, and Of all Of these
things this beautiful little booklet tells
the interesting story. 1t will be sent
to anyone on request.

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
SO good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were STEPPED on the stove,
gradually filing a gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties Of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
lily had saved enough money to COM
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success of
the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege.
table Compound have become house,
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia e. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe-
rience she vas ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful topre-
serve arecord of every case that came to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
careful study, and the details, includ-
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora-
ton of information regarding the
treatment Of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter in : law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She vas carefullyinstructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when it's origina,
tor passed away. For nearly twenty,
five years she has continued it, anc
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped hel
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham

Pinkham continues this greatwork, ano

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator. and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a won
derful knowledge Of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods OF
all kinds; SO, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex.
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and

A FEW TIMELY DoN'Ts.
What the Farmer Should Remember
Not to Do.

Don't throw forks farelessly on the
floors Of p~assageways in barns. That
is a sort of c~arelessness that may al
most be classed as criminal.
Don't neglect to keep all wheeled
vehicles well creased. A wheel that
cries out for lubricant is a good many
pounds added to the load of your
horse.
Don't throw forks carelessly on the
and other trimmings and refuse from
orchard, garden and truck patch, for
thereby you destroy many harmful
insects and seeds.
Don't invest any money in gold
mines, coffee plantations, copper
works and the like, thousands of miles
from your home, and managed by
men you have never seen. BY taking
this advice you may possibly miss the
opportunity of getting enormously
rich, but it is altogether likely that by
needing it you will a Y money enough
to buy that piano your daughter has
been wanting or the new buggy YOU
promised your son If he would stick
to the farm.
Don't allow any line fence squabble
or any family difference to come up to
spoil your Thanksgiving feast. 1t is
always a wise rule to think twice be.
fore you speak once; and if you will
take the p~recaution to think three
times, you r pretty sure to get
through nfe without uttering any
harsh words, and that means a serene
and sweet existence which is, after
all, the only thing worth while.
Don't speak in sharp, peremptory
tones to your children. You won't al.
low the hired man to use such tones
to the horses lest 1t makes them ner-
vous, nor to the cow lest it interfere
with their milk production. Your
sons and daughters are of more value
than many horses, Or the cattle upon
a thousand hills.-Farm Journal.

yapan,s Empress Popular.

It is doubtful If any royal consort is
more loved by her people than is the
empress Of Japan. Educated accord
ing to feudal ideas and skilled in all
the accomplishments BETTING one of
her social eminence, her majesty
strongly favors the broadness of the
new education for women and from
her private purse gives large sums
toward the maintenance of women's
schools and universities. During the
war with Russia the empress visited
the hospitals many times and every
day passed hours making bandages.
The effect Of these bandages upon the
wounded soldiers has been of deep in
terest to medical and scientific men,
for the soldiers honored by them
seemed to rally under a peculiar men.
tai influence. All other ~bandages were
destroyed after their first use; those
made by the empress were sterilized
and used again for the simple reason
Of their effect on the recovery Of the
soldiers.

warriors meet in combat, the mask
