Cure For The Blues
one MEDICINE THAT HAS NEVER FAILED
Health Fully Restored and the 10y OF
life Regained.
r When acheerful. brave, light-hearted
woman is suddenly plunged into that
perfection of misery, the BLUES, 1t Is
a sad picture. 1t is usually this way:.
She has been feeling "out of sorts"

for some time; head has ached and
back also; has slept poorly, been quite
nervous, and nearly tainted once or
twice; head dizzy, and heart beats very
fast; then that bearing-down feeling,
and during her periods she is exceed
ingly respondent. Nothing pleases
her. Her doctor says: Cheer up: you
have dyspepsia; you will be all right
soon"
But she doesn't get tall right" and
hope vanishes; then come the brood
ing, morbid, melancholy, everlasting
BLUES.
Don't wait until your sufferings have
driven you to despair, with your nerves
all shattered and your courage gone,
but take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound. See what it did for
Mrs. Rosa Adams, of $40 18th Street,
louisville, KY, niece of the late Gen
eral Roger Hanson, C.S.A. She writes:

coiffeur.
The arrangement Of the mantilla,
which may be of white or black lace,
with the high comb is simple. One end
is dropped slightly over the top of the
comb, and the rest of the flmy fabric,
which is in square shawl form, grace
fully wells the shoulders and back Oh
the head.
The picturesque becomingness OF

adopted by a few women OF indie

The ways Of putting the Spanish
comb into the couture are various

crown, or slightly to one side, With

of the couture, the square top barely

those only moderately high, and true
Spanish influences, are shown in the
square tops, which, whether high OF
low, the majority of the newest combs
display.
AS to the methods by which the
modish couture Of the moment Is
achieved, they all tend to give the
head a very enlarged appearance.
Frames made of wire the size of 9

with a covering of hair net, are EN-

at the front are artiicially CLOSED tt

there is a vacant space in the bacl

short curl, which it attached to
brown, blonde or black hairpin.
The false pieces used to exc on

structures are without number. Few
heads can be dressed without a switcl

whose lightly falling puff and side un
dulations look so divinely natural, ar
made entirely by one Of the wire'
pieces called transformations.

Alfalfa will greatly change the cost

II farm conditions are not ideal, 1t
is in the power of the agriculturists
to make them so.
For cutting bands, in threshing

Taking the country as a whole, and
averaging the various crops, one
thing is sure-the harvest is a very
encouraging one, with no signs of
famine ahead.

Curing a Kicking Cow.

When a COW has a sore teat, a caked
udder, or when breaking a heifer. If
she refuses to stand still or kicks,
don't argue the question with her with
the milking stool, but just quietly take
a strap and put it around her hind
legs. The COW can stand naturally but
can't kick OF get her foot in the pail
and the result is no bad habits are
learned. A simple strap and buckle
with plenty. of holes in the strap Is
better than any complicated appliance
to make a COW stand still. Wrap 1t
twice around the left leg above the
gambrel Joint, cross the strap between
the. legs and buckle the other leg tight.

to prevent the cows going into an al.
ley or feed room while stabling.
The diagram inclosed herewith, says
a writer in Prairie Farmer, shows one
of the handy gates we have in use.
They are great conveniences. The
gate proper is made of pine material
five inches in width. The gate, of
course, is made to fit the place where
needed. The two outer pieces are
longer and serve as a part of the
hanger. The gate is hung uvon a
two-inch gas pipe, which is in length
twice the width of the gate. Iron
straps serve tho purpose of hangers
and slide upon the gas piping as a
track.
In our barn we have in use eight of
these handy gates and would not
think of getting along without them.
In one or two instances when stock
got loose they doubtless saved the
lives of the animals as u feed room
is in easy reach of the stable.

OF Importance to the feminine

Another of our missionaries, Rev. III. b.
Price, has been called from arduous service to
his rest and reward. He had been on visit to
friends in this country and was returning to
his post of duty, when he was taken suddenly
ill and died at Toxic, Japan, June Goth. He
was the son of DR.. Robert Price, of the South
western Presbyterian University, and was a
graduate of that institution. He entered the
Japan Mission in 1887, where he has been one
of our most active and useful missionaries for
nineteen years. During this period it has been
his JOY to great changes in the religious life
of the people whom he sought to help. He had
finished the work that his Master had for him
to do and now that he is translated to a bet
ter country, even a heavenly, another will in
turn be called to take up his responsible work
The skeptical criticism brings forth its evil
fruits wherever it's seeds are sown. From the

enced in filling vacant pulpts with suitable men.
In several cantons, notably Bern, the Synods are
at their wits end to continue the supply of pas

that their class-rooms rapidly emptying. One
leading pastor goes so far as to state that in
ten years time, if change for the better does
not take place, there will be over 800 vacant Pro
