Subtle Criticism.

A certain young artist in New York
who is on terms Of comparative In
timacy with the janitor of the apart
ment-house wherein he maintains his
studio, is in some doubt whether the
said janitor is cynic, or something
of an art critic, or both.
"One day, while doing a bit of re-
pair work in the studio" says the
painter, Mike scrutinized a bit of my
work with ominous solemnity. When

blow fell Said 1:

cracked, which spoils the likeness

When a medicine effects a cure in
80 per cent of cases, and when we of
fer that medicine on our own personal
guarantee that it will cost the useI
nothing if it does not cure Catarrh, il
! is only reasonable that people should
believe us, or at least put our claim
to a practical test when we take all
the risk. These are facts which we
want the people of Palestine to sub
stantiate. We want them to try Rex.
all Mucu-Tone, medicine prepared
from prescription of physician
whose specially was Catarrh, and who
has record of thirty years of cures
to his credit.
We sell more bottles and receive
more good reports about Rexall Muco-
Tone than we do of all other catarrh
remedies sold in our store, and if
more people only knew what thor
oughly dependable remedy Rexall
Muco-Tone is, it would be the only
catarrh medicine we would have any
demand for.
Rexall Muco-Tone is quickly absorb
ed and carried by the blood until it
thoroughly disinfects and cleanses the
entire mucous membranous tract, de-
stroys and removes the parasites
which injure and destroy the mem
branous tissues, soothes ana heals the
irritation and soreness, stops the mu-
cous discharge, and builds up strong,
healthy tissue, relieves the blood and
system of diseased matter, stimulates
the muco-cells, aids digestion and i'm
proves nutrition until the whole body
vibrates with healthy activity. In a
comparatively short time there is
most noticeable gain in weight, and
strength, good color and feeling of
bouyancy.
We urge you to try Muco-Tone, be-
ginning treatment today. At any
time you are not satisfied, simply
come and tell us, and we will quickly
return your money without question
or bubble We have Rexall Muco-
Tone in two sizes, so cents and $100.

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 one of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
Iaxatives 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.
It 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

effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug

The Colony Plan.

If you want vigorous chickens ana
hens that lay do not overcrowd them.
Forty or fifty in one flock are suffl-
cient. If you have more than this num-
Der by all means make a change, for
your chickens are probably costing you
more than they are worth. Ii you da
not care to sell any of your birds then
start into the chicken business on the
colony plan. Divide your flock into
colonies of about forty fowls each and
build houses for them in different parts
of the farm. For instance, if you have
one hen house on the east side of the
barn, put another house on the west
side Then if you have enough birds
put another house down by the calf lot
and another TO the farther end of the
barn yard. A dozen different places will
suggest themselves if you hook for lo1
cations on your farm. If you have
made failure in raising chickens or
your hens don't amount to much"
try this method. 1t will surprise and
please you. Your hens will be healthier,
will lay better and will require less
feed. The reason for this will be easily
seen when you have once tried it.
Chickens, or anything else for that mat
ter, cannot stand crOwding. Also the
colony plan gives the fowls wider range
and encourages the birds to hunt for
their living-EXchange

Screams from the Threats of the popu-
lace rent the air. The firemen ran up
a ladder with fitful rapidity to save the
trapped human. One of them dashed
swiftly up the rounds through the dense
smoke and when he had reached the
eighteenth floor yelled out encouraging
ly:
Don't jump! Hold fast! I'll be
there In moment"
'"The circumstances of my predica-
ment are indeed peculiar" came the an
swer from above. You can rest as
sured, however, that l shall not deliber-
ately plunge myself into space, although

eating smoke. The situation is very an

that he was from Observation-Disclosures.
