MODERN THERAPEUTICS.

1 went to a modern doctor to learn what 1t was
I'd lately been of my fodder, and life was no
He felt of my pulse as they all do he gazed at
my outstretched tongue;
He took of my coat and weskit and harked at
each wheeling lung.
He fed me small glass penstalk with figures
upon the side,
And this was the final verdict when all of my
marks he'd spied:
"Do you eat fried eggs2 Then quit it.
You don't? Then hurry and eat 'em
There are no other foods to beat 'em.
Do you walk? Then stop instanter,
For exercise will not do
For people with whom 1t doesn't agree,
And this Is the rule for you:
Just quit whatever you do do
And begin whatever you don't,
For what you don't do may agree with you
As whatever you do do DON'T"
Yea thus saith the modern doctor: Tradition
be double burned
What the oldsters knew was nothing compared
to the things we've learned.
There's nothing in this or that thing that's cer
ANY more than a single bonnet's becoming to
fix
The modern who knows his business is up to
host of tricks.
You don't? Then get after it quickly,
For the long-eared ass gives the laugh to grass
And delights in the weed that's prickly
Do you sleep with the windows open
Then batten them good and tight
And swallow the same old fetid air
Through all the snoozesOme night.
Just quit whatever you do do
Ana do whatever you don't,
For whatever you don't do may agree with you
AS whatever you do do DON'T

HE EDUCATED THE JUDGE.

This anecdote is told of Chief JUS
tice John Marshall. Returning ore
afternoon from his farm near Rich
mond, Va, to his home in that city,
the hub of his wheel caught on a
small sapling growing by the road
side. After striving unsuccessfully
for some moments to extricate the
wheel he heard the sound of an axe
in the woods and saw negro man
approaching.
Hailing him he said: eff you will
get that axe and cut down this tree
I'll give you dollar
II en- git yer by 'thout no axe, ef
dat's all yer want"
Eyes, that's ALL" said the Judge.
The man simply backed the horse
until the wheel was clear of the sap
ling and then brought the vehicle
safely around it.
"You don't charge dollar for that,
do you 7" asked the astonished Chief
Justice.
"No, massa but it's wuf a dollar
to larn some folks sense"
The darky got his dollar without
further questioning.

GLAD BE WASN'T MAD.

A notorious mountain moonshiner,
Familiarity known as wild Bill, was
recently tried before Federal Court
in Georgia, and was adjudged guilty.
Before pronouncing sentence the
Judge lectured the prisoner on his
long criminal record, and at last in
forming him that the court entertain
ed no feeling of anger toward him,
but felt only mixed pity, sentenced
him to spend six years in the federal
prison at Atlanta.
Bill stolidly shifted the quid of to-
bacco in his mouth, and turned to
leave the courtroom with the mar
shall. Once outside the only thing he
said was this i:

A COMPLETE FAMILY.

The book agent seldom tells joke
at his own expense, but here is one
recently related by one of the much
maligned fraternity

He said he allowed he could get along
without an encyclopedia.

three more often in the woods. How

HIS SLEEPING PLACE.

To illustrate the text-"Love not
sleep lest thou come to poverty" a
pastor tells the following:
A boy had been away from home
for several weeks, so the mother
wrote to his employer
"Dear Sly-My son is no hand at
writing letters. Will you please tell
us how he is getting on. And do
tell US where he sleeps nights. "
The employer, who in this case
was a grocer sent an immediate reply :
"Your son." said he, "sleeps in the
store in the day time. 1 don't know
where he sleeps at night"

THE ORIGIN OF THE MOSS ROSE.

The angel of the flowers one day
Beneath a rose tree sleeping lay;
That spirit to its change is given,
To bathe young buds with dews from heaven.
Awakening from his slight repose,
The angel whispered to the rose,
Oh, fondest object of my care.
Still fairest found, where all Is fair.
For the sweet shades, thou hast given me,
Ask what thou wilt, tits granted thee.
Then said the rose, with deepening glow,
On me another grace bestow;
The spirit paused with anxious thought
What grace was there that flower had naught,
Twas but a moment DER the rose
A veil of moss, the angel throws,
And robed in natures simplest weed,
Could there flower that rose exceed.

FERTILITY.

The fertility OF the soil is the farm
ers' asset, and TO continue to crop land
without returning anything to keep up
the supply of humus will soon exhaust
it, and 1t will fail to produce a crop.
Keeping stock and applying manure to
the land is the safest and best method
of maintaining fertility, and yet there
are wasteful methods of handling the
manure. To throw the manure out in
the ~barnyard where the drippings from
the caves and the rains will wash 1t
and carry much of the fertilizing ele-
ments into the brooks and creeks is a
wasteful practice. To a V it spread
out in the yard all summer where 1t
will lose by evaporation and washing
is another poor practice. To apply a
heavy coat on a field and then wait five
or six years is also a wasteful method,
as il is better to apply a light coat Of
ten, and then the soil can utilize it,
While a heavy coat cannot be "di-
gested' all at once, and consequently
some must be wasted. A light coat OF
manure applied every two year will
maintain the fertility of the soil and
good crops can be secured continuous
ly. Spread thinly and often is the
safest rule.

Writing from Regina, Saskatche-

Drummer writes
"Some years ago ] took up a home
stead for myself, and also II for my
son. The half section whicll we own
adjoins the Moose Jaw Greek Is a low.
level and heavy land. We put in 10
acres of wheat i'm stubble, which went
90 bushels to the acre, and 30 acres OF
summer fallow, which went % bushels
to the acre. All the wheat we harvest
ed this year is No. | hard. That means
the best wheat that can be raised on
the earth. We did not sell any wheat
yet, as we intend TO keep one part for
our own seed. and sell the other part
to people who want first class seed.
for there is no doubt IL you SOW good
wheat you will harvest good wheat.
We also threshed 5000 bushels Of first
class oats out OF 160 acres; 80 acres
has been fall blowing. which yielded 90
bushels per acre, and so acres stubble,
which went 80 bushels TO the acre.
These oats are the best kind that can
be raised. We have shipped three car
loads OF them, and got 53 cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
in the last week OF the month OF Au-
gust before any frost could touch 1t.
Notwithstanding the fact that We
have had a late spring. and that the
weather conditions this year were very
adverse ana u~nfavorable, we will make
more money out OF our crop this year
than last.

Truth and
Quality

appeal to the Well Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup Of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but n of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it ~cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection,
able substances. To get it's beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co, only, and for sale by all leading drug,

man. live stock breeder and farmer
says: Il have been impressed by some
of the tremendous mistakes that have
been made in this country. AS a boy
i was familiar with the tidewater part
of Virginia. There they farmed in an
early day, making tobacco the leading
crop. There never was any live stock
industry in those days. And when we
go into the other states of the south
we see there the worn SCARED hill
sides. the result of the one crop-cot-
ton. This is a sad spectacle. That land
can hardly be brought back TO its
original fertility in a generation. The
west should learn the lesson hat one

getting along in the world"
