hut two heller, or two-tenths of penny,
Yet as strap hanging is allowed for
in considering the carrying capacity of
the car the conductors should have got
a goodly pocketfel of the minimum coin

Tipping, IS was escertained in another

recognized that the head waiter at a
cafe pays a rent for his post, supplies
all the journals for the coffee room and
looks after the other walters, and then
makes an income larger than that Of a
university professor-all out of his tips
After supper at one of the delightful
open air cafes of the capital it was
found that approximately one should
give half krone Qiyepencel to the head
waiter who took payment. twopence to

third summer, he bought box of

The crop was seeded on June 10 on

a crop of oat and pea forage had been
harvested, which averaged six tons per
acre. The nitrate was applied soon af

nuflding a Damn !.

I expect to build a dam on creek
for o saw mill. Dam viii be about
100 feet long at top to raise the water
ten feet. /. What would bt. the cheap
est way of building the dam? .. VIII
You give plan Of such dam? 3.
What size of turbine would be neces-
sary to run 4s-inch circular saw?
Ans.--The accompanying sketch
shows cross-section of the style of
dam that would be required for this
purpose Dams are sometimes con-
structed by curbing of wood, mason
~, or cement, the interior being filed
with dry stones. Such a dam Is called
q rocll-fill dam. If stone is plentiful.
the dam may be built entirely of ma
sonry. The top should be laid either
with plank or cement.
AS the illustration shows, the dam
is laid on bedrock, the bed rock being
blasted out sufficiently 20 secure key
and solid footing generally With
a ten-foot dam the base should be ten
feet wide. On the upstream side, the
DAhNNA VI S4SDC VI tIG tlutl Is dDOul
in 4, and on the downstream side the
upper part of the batter is about / in 8
and the lower part l In l. The dam
throughout its length should curve up-
stream, so as to present a concave sur
face to the pressure of the water. The
masonry work should be constructed
of rubble with cement mortar, and all
the work should be very thoroughly
done.
A necessary provision in connection
with dam is sufficient wasteway for
water not utilized for power. The com
mon form of wasteway is tunnel
thr RI the dam sufficiently large TO

wal'r that would be required to pass
through 1t, In addition sluice gates

appeal to the Well Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and ereditable standing. Accor-
ipgly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
Known value, but one 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
OF 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 laxative, and It's component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all OF lection
able substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co, only, and for sale by all leading drug

Although cultivation Is necessary and
will increase your crops, NO matter how
much You cultivate. or how you labor,
it should be remembered that the plant
food in the soil is the vital element Of
crop production. The crop removes this
element, but by applying manure It Is
put back again. Manure not only en-
riches soil with the elements Of fertil-
fly, but also renders the stored plant

SAT- for Live stock.


Why salt should be regularly sup
piled to stock is thus put by famous
English authority: Because in the
blood Of animals there is six or seven
times more sodium than potassium, and
that the composition If the blood Is
constant. To keep animals in good
health definite amount OF com non
salt must be assimilated. The excess
OF potassium salts In vegetable foods
causes by chemical exchange an all
normal loss Of common salt. This is
proved by the fact that the craving of
an animal for common salt is most no
ticeable when the food contains a large
proportion of potassium salts, such as
wheat, barley. oats, potatoes, beans and
peas. The ADDITION aS SAT- to animal
food increases the appetite, promotes
the repair of tissue by its searching
diffusion through the body, and stimu-
lates the rapid using up Of its waste
products. Boussingault's experiments
showed that salt increases muscular
ylgor and activity, and improves their
general appearance and condition.

MOTHER AND CHILD.

Both Fully NourIshcd on Grape-Suts.
The value of this famous food is
shown in many ways. in addition to
what might be expected from its chemi-
cal analysis.
Grape-Nuts food is made Of whole
wheat and barley, is thoroughly baked
for many hours and contains all the
wholesome ingredients in these cereals.
1t contains also the phosphate of pot
ash grown In the grains, which Nature
uses to build up brain and nerve cells.
Young children require proportion
ately more Of this element because the
brain and nervous system Of the child
grows so rapidly
4 Va. mother found the value Of
Grape Nuts in not only building up her
own strength but in nOurishing her
baby at the same time. She writes
