1.-The Blood is The ife.o

Science has never gone beyond the
above simple statement of scripture. But
it has illuminated that statement and
given it a meaning ever broadening with
h increasing breadth of knowledge.
When the blood is ubad" or impure it
is not alone the body which suffers
through disease. The brain is also

manifestations of impure blood.
@ O Q Q O O
In the cure of scrofulous swellings, en-
larged glands, open eating ulcers, or old
sores, the Golden Medical Discovery"has
performed the most marvellous cures. In
cases of old sores, or open eating ulcers,
it is well to apply to the open sores DR..
Pierce's All-Healing Salve, which pos
sesses wonderful healing potency when
used as an application to the sores in con-
junction with the use of Golden Medical
Discovery" as a blood cleansing consti-
tutional treatment. If your druggist
don't happen to have the "All-Healing
Salve" in stock, you can easily procure it
by inclosing tifty-four cents in postage
stamps to DR.. R. V,Pierce, G63 Main ST.,
Buffalo, N. Y, and it will come to you by
return post. Most druggists keep it as
well as the "Golden Medical Discovery"

1t Was the French assassin Lupi
who escaped to sea from Cayenne In
Il coffin. lie managed to get some
rails, tar and cotton, and one dark
night he got into the coffin shed. He
selected Il fine, stanch and seaworthy
coffin and fastened the lid in order TO
turn it into a deck, leaving a cockpit
sufficient to enable him to crawl in.
lic calked all the joints as well as he
could, and when this work was fin
ished he made a pair of paddles out
OF two planks. Then he brought out
his craft with great precaution. With
out much difficulty he reached the
water's edge. Silently and slowly he
proceeded in the hope of reaching
either Venezuela or British Guiana, $50
nautical miles distant. Fortunately or
unfortunately for Lupi. the steamer
Aheille. returning from the Antilles,
off Paramaribo picked him up, half
drowned aGG almost in a fainting con-
dition. and Il few hours later he was in
irons in his cell.

Cron Rotation and R~oot-Aphis.

From the fact that in he midst of
the corn belt, and where the root-aphis
is known to prove destructive under
certain conditions, almost complete i'm
munity is secured where a system of
crop rotation has been carried out for
many years, involving but II corn
crop in the cycle of rotation, it is self
evident that this measure offers the
greatest protection from the ravages Of
this pest, says a government report.
Indeed, it is only where such a sys-
TEN of crop rotation is not practicable
that the r%oot-aphis need be considered
in farm practice. To the eastward.
where there is more general rotation
of crops, this pest does but little in
jury.
Unfortunately, local conditions, often
extending over large sections of coun-
try. will not permit OF crop rotation
being generally adopted, and some 9th
er plan more feasible must be put into
practice. Two other methods may be
followed. One of these is practicable
throughout the corn-growing section of
the country in seasons of not more
than normal precipitation during the
time intervening between the first
blowing of the ground and the first
cultivation Of the young corn. II 9th
err is perhaps best adapted to the south
ern portion Of the country on account
Of the milder winters.

ECZEMA COVERED BABY.
Worst Case Doctors Ever Saw-Suf-
fered Untold Misery-Perfsct Cure
by Cutfcura Remedies.

my son, who is now twenty-five
years of age, when four months old
began to have eczema on his face,
spreading quite rapidly until he was
nearly covered. The eczema was some
thing terrible, and the doctors said 1t
was the worst case they ever saw. AT
times his whole body and face were
covered, all but his feet. l used many
kinds Of patent medicines, to no avail.
A friend leased me to try Cuticura.
At last l decided to try Cuticura when
my boy was three years and four
months old, having had eczema all that
time and suffering untold misery. I
began to use all three of the Cuticura
Remedies. He was better in two
months; in six months he was well.

How to Keen Hay.

Haystacks should never be used If
the hay can be put under shelter. Hay
sheds, which are simply roofs on poles,
cost but little, and will ave much val
liable food in 4 year. Glover hay does
not retain its quality when closely
packed, being liable to heat, which is
also an objection to baling it. The best
prices for hay are obtained only when
the hay is bright and clean, and when
exposed to the weather it is liable to
injury unless stacks are made by eX-
perts. The best hay is that which has
received careful attention in both cur
ing and storing.

will prevent the proper cultivation of
corn, as working the corn destroys the
pumpkin vines, the result being that
late weeds get a chance to grow and
mature. 1t is urged in defense Of
growing pumpkins in the corn field
that they do not interfere with cult
walton until the corn is laid by but
much depends upon the land, rainfall
and thoroughness Of cultivation. Corn
should never be laid by as long as
weeds and grass can have an %opportu-
nifty to grow, cultivation being given 1t

The cheapest way to keep a flock of
hens in summer is to turn them on a
range, and let them pick up all the
food required, as they will fill their
crops several times a day with bugs.

grain during warm weather the fowls
arc liable to become too fat, in which
condition the hens do not lay and are

Be careful in moving the lawn dur

moisture. The cutting of grass weak
ems the plant at first, as every success

ducing seed. Any plant can be de-
stroyed if kept cut close to the ground.
It may make new growth several times.
but sooner or later becomes exhausted.
When moisture is abundant, however,
the plant has better opportunities to

enough fresh manure to create slight

New Varieties of Fruit.

Beginners with fruit should not be
too enthusiastic over the merits of new
varieties. Every year the best comes
out. the highest praised variety Of last
year being forgotten in the catalogues
of this year. The proper plan is to
visit the fruit farm of some expert
enced neighbOr and take his advice.
The old standards are usually the best,
but new varieties should be tested on
"A limited scale. Climate and soil must
be considered in selecting varieties.

The chief cause of Constipation and
Indigestion is a weakness of the Muscles
that contract the lntestines and Bowels.
Cascarets are practically to the Bowel
Muscles what a Massage and Gold Bath
are to the Athletic Muscles.
They stimulate the Bowel Muscles to
contract, expand, and squeeze the piges-
tive Juices out of food eaten. a
They don't help the Bowels and Liver In
such a way as to make them lean upon
similar assistance for the future.
This is why, with Cascarets, the dose
may be lessened each succeeding time
instead Of increased. as it must be with all
other Cathartics and Laxatives.

Cascarets act like exercise.
