accuracy of drawing cannot be expected

teacher does not aim at perfecting the

Of the class must be kept well in view.
The criticism must tend to the develop
ment of inventive imagination and the
power to make flexible medium of the
material employed. While practice in
the constant working over of forms al
ready given is the means to be relied
upon, the teacher must, in talking to
the child of it's work, stimulate the
qualities which develop the purpose of

ing upon certain excellencies in the pic
ture and not expatiating on certain de-
fects, the child will assume more hope
full attitude and work toward the goal,
dropping it's faults more or less uncon-
sciously. The influence of good art III
the schoolroom is most helpful. The
selection of pictures and casts for the

a great influence upon the child's point
of view and approach in his own picture

Doctor Brigham
MANY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE
Lydia e. PirS6SaaS7syS
Vegetable Compound

The wonderful power of Lydia r..
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womanl1ind is not be-
cause it is stimulant, not because it
is a palliative, but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon
structor' ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs, positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due.
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of them would ac1nowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases of female ills, as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.
DIR. S. G. Brigham, of Brigham
Park, Fitchburg, Mass, writes:
cit gives me great pleasure to say that 1
have found Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound very efficacious, and often pre-
scribe it in my practice for female difficulties
"My oldest daughter found it very benefi-
cial fora femaletrouble some time ago, andmy
youngest daughter is now taking it for fe
male weakness, and is surely gaining in health
and strength
81 freely advocate it as a most reliable spe-
cific in all diseases to which women are sub
ject, and give it honest endorsement"
Women who are troubled with pain
full or irregular periods, bloating Tor
fatulency), weakness of organs, dis
placements, Inflammation or ulcers ton.
can be restored to perfect health and
strength by taking Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. IL advice is
needed write to Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. She is daughter-in-law
of Lydia e. Pinkham and for twenty
five years has been advising sick
women free of charge. No OF, er living
person has had the benefit of a
wider experience in treating female
ills. She has guided thousands to
health. Every suffering woman should
ask FOR and follow her advice il she
wants to be strong and well.

frees on Unprepared Land.

I think just as good results can be
secured on unprepared land as in any
ground, providing the trees are prop
erly set out and the grass and sod
kept away from around the roots and
the tree. The ground about the tree
must be properly hoed or cultivated
during the following summer or a
heavy mulch placed around it. The
proper way, and in fact the only way,
says a writer in the Farmers Review,
for such ground is to use tamping
bar to firm the soil around the roots
when setting the tree. The dirt can.
not be tramped firm enough with the
feet. OF course care must be used
to have plenty of fine dirt around the
roots, so that the tamping bar does
not bruise or skin them. In setting
a tree, especially in the spring, too
much care cannot be used to get the
soil firm around the roots. It should
be as solid as gate post, with the
soil loose at the top Of the ground.

WE PAY FOR POOR ROADS.
The impossible or Heavy Highways
Are Improbable to the
Farmers.

People generally assume that they
pay for roads only when they are as
sessed for road construction or when
they pay the annual road tax. The
charge for poor roads, however, is
one that is as sure as that we pay
for the construction of good roads.
The man in the city pays very little
for poor roads, because his business
does not require him to keep horses
and wagons. Usually he walks to his
work, and if he has carriage, it is
luxury, and also it is a light car
riage, and poor roads do not inter-
fere very much with its transit. The
farmer, however, is very dependent
upon the public highway. No matter
how poor the road may be, he is COM
PEELED to use it. 1t is no question
with him of taking a ride in light
buggy, it is a question OF pulling
heavy loads over such road, and
this means tremendous wear on the
wagon, on the harnesses, and on the
horses. More than once, declares the
Farmers Review, we have received
that the roads were SO bad they
could not haul their produce to
market. This has been generally in
townships where the soil was of
clayey formation, which is very re-
tentive of moisture, and dries out
slowly. Moreover when it does dry
it leaves the road rutted and rough.
The farmer pays for poor roads, first
by the extra force that his horses
must exert in pulling load over
these roads. Every pound of energy
wasted costs the farmer money in
the form of oats and other feeds. His
second loss is in time. Frequently
twice as much time is being con-
sumed in hauling load to market
over rough roads as over good roads.
The third loss comes in the frequent
accidents to the wagons and horses.
Not infrequently an axle is broken
and the whole load has to be trans
ferred to another wagon at great
loss of time. 1t is only matter OF
economy for rural communities to
have as good road as they can afford
to build, whether those roads be OF
gravel, dirt, or other construction. The
man in the city can get along for
some weeks without supplies from
. the country, but in the meantime the
supplies that the farmer should sell
are decaying in his cellar.

practical Joke Almost Fatal.

Derby, Conn.-As the result OF prac-
tical joke played upon him by unknown
persons. John Flaherty, a young Quaim-
baug farmer, came within Is minutes of
diving. Flaherty, who supports his wild
owed mother, drove to Mystic on Mon
day to have his horse shod He start
ed home at dusk and an hour later a
neighbor found Flaherty in field lying
on the ground unconscious, wrapped in
a horse blanket. Flaherty had been
stripped of his clothing except his col
lar which was fastened around his neck
so tightly that he was slowly being
strangled. His face had been daubed
with red paint until he resembled an In
dian warrior Flaherty refuses to tell
who tortured him, despite the entreaties
Of his mother, who says the town boys
ridiculed him because of his rustic ap-
pearance.

CATTLE TANK FOR -FOUR FIELDS.
do not know of many farmers who
have succeeded in solving the difficulty
to their entire satisfaction.
The plan presented in our illustra-
ton hardly needs any description, in
asmuch as there is very little detail
that is not shown in the cut.
One great advantage of a form OF
this kind, says the Prairie Farmer, is
that one large tank is used SO that
considerable body of water is kept
together which retains a more even
temperature in both summer and win
ter. The artist has shown the fenc-
Ing as made of light material. Obvi-
ously this must be of more than usual
strength since there is also crowding
at watering tank which must be
provided against by extra strong fence
material. If this plan is properly
adapted to yard conditions there is no
reason to doubt its usefulness.

LONG TRIP IN A TRANCE.
Man Wanders from Los Angeles to
Observation-Disclosures and Finds
Memory a Blank.

Sydney, Australia.-A curious case
OF lapse OF memory has just been re-
Vealed here on the arrival from the
northern districts of New South Wales
of an American, whose last remem-
brance was of Los Angeles, Cal. The
Americans story is vouched for nv
two Sydney doctors, who have investi-
gated the circumstances.
The mysterious traveller left Para
hoe, in California, few days before
last Easter, intending to join his wife
and family at Los Angeles. He remem-
bers arriving there, but has no recol-
lection OF what happened afterward.
He aWoke to find himself lying I'M
DER a tree in the Australian bush, and
was immensely astonished at seeing
around him many unknown forms of
vegetation. He noticed that his hands
were hard and rough. though he had
never consciously done days hard
work.
A bullock driver passed him shortly
after his awakening, and he at once
inquired the way to Los Angeles. The
man stared in establishment, and an
swered that Hill End was the name OF
the nearest township.
The man without a memory there
upon asked the date, and was told that
it was late in October, and that he was
IL New South Wales. He worked his
way to Sydney, distance of some hum
dreds of miles, and r. now trying to OBJ
tain employment to return to his fam
lily.
He is in total ignorance as to their
whereabouts and as to his own doings
during the six months between April
and October.
