Fish belong to the nitroEenous class
OF foods. and are digested principally
i'm the stomach. They contain, a relative
~ large precentage Of phosphorus, but
are not. as many people suppose. a
brain food. The fat of white heshed
FISH. such as cod, herring, etc, IS all
secreted in the liver, leaving the flesh
comparatively dry: fish with dark or
colored flesh have the fat distributed
throughout the body, hence are much
richer and more difficult OF digestion.
When buying fish examine the flesh,
which should be firm; the scales should
be closely adherent and stiu brilliant;
the eyes and gills bright and the flesh
free from a had odor. Never purchase
stale FISH as it is liable to prove poison.

Exactly wherein lies the virtue of
this simple cure for disordered nerves,
it would perhaps be difficult to dis
cover. 1t may be that there is some
hypnotic action i'm the swift movement
of the shining needles upon which the
knitter's eyes are fixed
Such action, of course. would be
very slight, but it is quite possible
that it may be sufficient to quiet the
nerves. and that. too, in a much more
salutary way than can be effected by
any drug. At all events, the fact re-
mains.
We have notable testimony to this
effect from a great writer 1t is re
corded of RObest Louis Stevenson that
when he was restless or ill he used to
knit He found the work sOOthed

given no scientific explanation as to
why it did so.

Do Not Hasten to Grow Old

Keep young as long as possible, not
because it is any disgrace to be DID,
but because it makes man less eff
cient at his work. The following para
graph is from the Epitomist:
Usually when man begins to real
ize that he is growing old. he jumps
to the conclusion that his life's work
is about finished. Although but mid

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change .
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm. the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from \
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change. ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.
As surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement of the health
of the delicate womanly organs, so surely
when these organs are established in
health the face and form at once witness
to the fact in renewed comeliness. Nearly

happiness in the use of DIR. Pierce's Fa-

Useful Odds and Ends.

Nutshells of all sorts are useful in
helping to revive a fire, and the shells
of the Brazil nut are particularly
serviceable in this way. The stones
of plums, greengages, etc, may be
used for the same purpose, and should
be dried and saved, instead of being
thrown away. Orange-peel is another
article which may be treated as above.
All these may be kept i'll a small Orna-
mental bag or box near the chimney
corner, as they are quite inOdOrOus
when dried, and will be at hand when
required. Spent matches used in the
same way will be found helpful, and

number of struck matches which can

A TOOL CABINET FOR THE
HOME.

The reason ordinary home tools be-
come nicked and battered sooner than
shop tools of equal quality is because
they are not properly kept.
The best tools will be ruined in a
short time if they are thrown in with
others. Each tool should have a
place of its own so that it will not
come in contact with another.
Keen Kutter Tool Cabinets have
been designed containing just the
tools that are needed in every home,
each in a place of its own, carefully
separated from every other tool.
The cabinet itself is made of natural
oak, beautifully finished and polished,
and the tools are the very best that
are made.
The Keen Kutter Tool Cabinet is
set of trademarked and guaranteed
tools, the only one that can be bought
without risk. If anything goes wrong
with any tool, it will either be re-
placed or money refunded.
Keen Kutter Tool Cabinets and
Tool Boxes come in different sizes
and contain various assortments of
tools, ranging in price from $3.50 to
$4,000.
These Cabinets contain in different
numbers and varieties, Saws, Brace,
Bits, Chisels, Drills, Gimlets, Brad
Avis, Scratch Awl, Planes, Ham
mers, Hatchet, Files, Pliers, Drawing
knife, crew-drivers, Wrenches, Nail
set, Reamer, Rules, Squares, Tape
Measure, Level, and many accessories,
such as Wise, Clamps, Oilstone, etc.
Besides the racks for tools, there is
ample drawer room, so that not only
the tools but the entire working outfit
may be kept together.

generation all the land will be so re-
gistered. and at practically no in
creased expense. Our contemporary,
Wallace'S Farmer. of Iowa, comment
ing on the adoption of the Torrens
method by Cook County, Illinois. says:
''We would he exceedingly glad if
this law were adopted not only in
Cook County. Illinois, but in every
county in every state in the Union.
1t would save the farmers millions of
dollars each year. AS it is now, every
time farmer wants to mortgage his
land, or sell it. the title must be eX-
amined by some attorney or land
agent, then passed upon by a lawyer,
any clouds there may be i'm the title
must be removed, by quit claim deeds
in some cases, by affidavits, and often
by quieting the title i'm the court A
few years after, he perhaps wants to
mortgage his land again, or dispose of
it, and then all this process must be
gone through again. Shrewd lawyers
will discover new clouds, new Objec-
tiOns. most of them of no significance
whatever, yet still enough to give the
farmer trouble and put him to cost
and expense for the removal of these
clouds. whether imaginary or real.
''If the TOrrens System were to be
come general all this expense would
be entirely Obviated. The question of
title would he settled once and forever,
and any person could find out at any
time i'm two minutes all that he needed
to know, so far as title is concerned,
about this piece of land, and that
without expense.
''The adoption of this system by
any state or any city is always bitter
ly opposed by real estate lawyers, by
examiners of titles, and by men who
have invested Il large amount of their
money in abstracts, and very often by
country newspapers, who will lose a
good deal of revenue from lack of an
opportunity to publish original notices
at legal rates: but for all that the law
should be enacted i'm every state as
soon as possible. The saving to the
farmers i'm any state would run up
to millions i'm a single year"
The Florida agriculturist., 1906-08-15
The Torrens System is Popular.

Are you doing anything to help for
ward the time when we shall have the
TOrrens system of registering land
titles i'm this state? If not, why not?
The last number of the Progressive
Farmer has another article on the
subject. 1t seems that people in North
Carolina are becoming interested in
this question. Are the candidates for

The Progressive Farmers article on
the TOrrens System of registering
land titles have attracted a great deal
of attention. Last weeks paper was
hardly dry from the press before one
candidate for the Legislature told us
of his intention to fight for it in the
next General Assembly of this state
and farmers are writing us i'm approval
of the general idea, asking for infor
ma ton on minor points. and urging us
to keep up the fight for pledging can
didateS on this important reform. 1t
is the only modern system; 1t has
vantages than almost any innovation
that could possibly be mentioned. and
it is as certain of general adoption
sooner or later as it is that in this
country the people and not jackleg
lawyers rule. In Virginia we expect
to see Mr.. Massie carry his fight to
General Assembly, for the candidates
will certainly hear from their people
in the coming campaign. and the ar
gument of Demetrius will not prevail
against the demand of an aroused pub
lie opinion. In North Carolina we
shall at least get the measure squarely
put before the people of the state be-
fore the next Legislature meets, and
with the issue once raised, there can be
but one result: the adoption of the
TOrrens System will be only question
of time
In many sections of the West the
plan which prevails allows any man
who wishes to do so to get TOrrens
deed upon payment of the fee, while
it makes it compulsory with executors
and administrators in settling estates
to register lands under the Torrens
plan-which means that in about one
