Care OF the separator.

In order to have the perfect motion
Of the separator bowl, the machine
must be set level and be kept clean
and well oiled. The oil should be thin
or light, SO it will not gum the wear
ing parts. A heavy oil will make the
machine run hard and will gum quick
ly on small high-speed bearings. All
the bearings Of the machine should be
frequently flushed with coal oil. 1t is
well to make a run about once in two
or three weeks, using coal oil on all
the bearings. This keeps the parts
free from gum and washes out grit
or sand that may have blown into
them. It is an excellent plan to have
a cover of close-woven cloth or oil
cloth, that can be kept over the ma
chine while 1t is not in operation. This
will keep out dust and will add mate
rally to the lasting powers of the ma
chine. The separator should be set
upon a good solid floor, SO that it will
not move about as the operator turns
the crank.--Prof. e. III. Webster.

Watering the milk in the COW is
often the fact, as the quality of the

FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

rT |.l LE'
A wise doctor found out coffee was
hurting him, so he quit drinking it.
He was SO busy with his practice,
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, one day at dinner. She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuring
him and. decided to give Postum a
trial, and we have used it now for
four years, with continued benefit. In
fact, he is now free from the long
train of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.
ITO show how successful we are
in making Postum properly | will re-
late an incident. At a dinner we
gave, Doctor suggested we serve
Postum instead Of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, a Clergyman, sup
posed 1t was old fashioned coffee and
remarked, as he called for his sec
ond cup: If you do preach against
coffee, | see YOU haven't forgotten how
to make IT."
This goes to show that well-made-
fully boiled-Postum has much the
flavor and richness of good coffee al.
though 1t has an individuality all its
own. A ten days trial will prove that
It has non Of the poisonous effect OF
ordinary coffee, but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee. There's a
reason." Name furnished by Postum

THE ARTISTIC WALL.
One of Solid Color Will Always Give
Best Effect.

The dearest, daintiest, most artistic
wall is a solid colored wall. 1t fur
nishes a perfect background for all
kinds Of pictures, it throws them out
in their correct proportions, and does
not detract from their artistic value.
The solid colored wall is also much
better as a background for furniture,
and harmonizes much more artistical-
ly with carpets and rugs than any
other method of wall treatment. The
less breaking up of color on a wall
the more artistic it is.
The most successful form of the
solid colored wall is an alabastined
wall. There is as much difference be-
tween tinted walls, as there is be-
tween shoddy and all-wool gowns. The
shoddy gown holds its color for a few
days, while the Atwood keeps its color
to the very last thread, so also in solid
colored walls, there are shoddy walls
and permanently colored walls which
retain their color down to the very
last particle. The ideal wall coating
rubs off, never fakes nor chips
off and is always ready for a fresh
coat. If there is wallpaper on the
wall, soak it off with warm water,
then go yer the plaster after you
have removed the paper with warm
water to remove every trace of paste.
Have the wall thoroughly clean for a
clean wall cannot be built on an I'M
clean foundation. If there are any
particles of foreign matter adhering
to the wall scrape them off with a
putty knife. Then if there are any
discolorations on the wall, size it with
a material made from cheap varnish,
thinned down with benzine and japan
added for a drier, then cover your
wall with your tinting material.
Be sure your man uses q tinting ma.
terial mixed with cold water. If he
comes to you apd asks for warm wa
ter, you a make up your mind that
there is glue in the material which he
proposes to put on your wall, and you
can be certain that you are going to
have a shoddy wall, for glue means
shoddy. Glue means that it will hold
Its color long enough for the man to
collect his bill and not much longer.
Insist on your tinting material being
mixed with clear, cold water. Be sure
that your wall is made from pure ma
terials, then you will have a perma-
nent, artistic, sanitary wall. A wall
that will be a thing of beauty and C
Joy forever"

E BARN FLOOR.
One Made of Cement Meets All Re.
quirements.

l think an ideal floor for a COW to
stand on is cement, writes an Ohio
farmer. You can keep a stable floor
dry if you use plenty of absorbents.
/ have been rash enough to say a man
should use land plaster in his stable,
but Prot. Ketch says land plaster has
no power to fix ammonia at all.
Therefore, we must put on lots of bed
ding, and not allow it to remain I'M
der the COW until it is all matted
down, and when we stir it UP find mold
in it; keep it working to the gutter
and put on fresh. I have never found
SO good an absorbent as good, fresh
horse n scattered behind the
cows each morning with road dust.
It holds the ammonia, takes up all
the liquids and keeps the COW reason
ably clean. If a man is going to have
a sanitary stable, he must put in hard
work, and l would recommend a ma
nure carrier, and to clean out the
stable twice a day.

TIGER COMES ON sHIpsoARD.
Furnished Entertainment ser Crew
Until Animal Was Killed.

To be attacked by a tiger was the
thrilling experience OF the crew Of
the Norwegian steamship Thorsdal,
which arrived at Philadelphia recent
ly, while that vessel was at Tampico,
Mexico. After a terrible fight with
the animal it was killed, and its
skin is now on board the Thorsdal.
1t was midnight when the anchor
watch saw appearing oveT the rail the
two bright eyes Of the huge animal.
The man ran to the mates room and
Informed him what he had seen.
The mate concluded the nan had
been drinking. and when he ordered
him back to his post the seaman rush.
ed into the oom of Capt. Malsom,
master Of the ship. The captain came
on deck and saw the tiger. He sum-
moned all hands, and, armed with
revolvers, they made an attack on
the Infatuated animal and killed 1t.
Had 1T not been for the fact that
the tiger got caught between an i'm
provised hatch it probably would have
killed several of the crew. When i'm.
prisoned in this position five of the
men began firing bullets into the
animals head.
The country about Tampico is In.
tested with wild animals, and it is
thought the tiger was crossing the
stream when it came against the side
OF the Thorsdal. 1t came up the
ladder, which was lowered over the
side.
The animal was an unusually large
one and handsomely marked.

New Style Milking Pail.

The spout of the pail has a tight fit
ting cover. One or two thicknesses
of strainer cloth are slipped under the
pan before 1t is fastened in place, and
the result is a dust and dirt-proof pail.
There is no patent on this pail, says
the Montreal Herald.
The milk strikes the bottom of the
pan, run through the holes in the
pan, through the strainer cloth and
into the pail, where it is practically
sealed from the outside conditions. 1t
comes in contact with the air of the
barn only while it is passing from the
teat to the pan-a distance of perhaps
six inches.

TACK THIS UP.
Simple Advice Which May Prove Of
Untold Value.

At the first sign of Backache or pain
in the region of the Kidneys, or weak
ness and Urinary trouble, the follow.
ing simple prescription should be
used:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Take a te~aspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
Any good prescription pharmacy
will supply these three ingredients at
small cost, which can easily be mixed
by shaking well in a bottle. This is
said to force the Kidneys to filter the
sour acids and poisons from the blood,
overcoming the worst cases of Rheu-
matism.
