TIE DOCTORS QUESTION.
Advice Against the Use Of Barsh
Purgatives and Physics.

A doctors first question when con-
suited by patient is, "are your bow
els regular?" He knows that ninety
eight per cent Of illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid liver.
This condition poisons the system
with noxious gases and waste matter
which naturally aecumulates and
which must be removed through the
bowels before health can be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and eathartics
may be truly hkened to dynamite.
Through their harsh, irritating action
they force passage through the bow
els, causing pain and damage to the
delicate intestinal structure which
weakens the whole system, and at
best only produces temporary reile1.
The repeated use of such treatments
cause chronic irritation of the stom-
aeh and bowels, hardens their tissues,
deadens their nerves, stltfens their
muscles and generally brings about an
injurious habit which sometimes has
fatal results.
We have a positive, pleasant and
safe remedy for constipation and bow
el disorders in general. We are so
certain of its great curative value
that we promise to return the pur-
chaser's money in every case when 1t
fails to produce entire satisfaction.
This remedy is called Rexall Order
lies. We urge you to try them at our
entire risk.
Rexall Orderlies are very pleasant
to take, they act quietly and have a
soothing, strengthening, healing influ-
ence on the entire Intestinal tract.
They do not purge, grippe, cause maui
sea, flatulence, excessive looseness,
dlarrhoea or other annoying effect,
and they may be taken at any time
without any Inconvenience.
Rexall Orderlies overcome the drug
ging habit and cure constipation and
all similar ailments, whether acute or
chronic. They are especially good for
children, weak persons or old folks.

Feeding Swine Alfalfa.

One of the most extensive and sue cessfui swine raisers in Kansas tells the author this: Twenty-Five years of pasturing hogs of all ages on alfalfa have proved conclusively to ne that fourth to u half grain ration while they are on pasture will produce greater growth per day than when in dry lots on full feeds of corn. Hogs will main tain reasonable growth but not fat ten much on alfalfa pasture alone. l believe it profitable to feed them some grain while running on green alfalfa. If 1t is desired 10 full feed hogs they will make rapid fattening growth from increasing the grain ration while on pasture. and with the full grain ra- ton the meat will be nearly as firm as that of hogs kept in dry lot where grain alone has been fed. l find no distinction on the market between al falfa fed swine and those purely grain fed. and they sell price and price alike. The general health of the alfalfa fed hogs is equal to that of those main tained on any other feed. and they are prolific From coburn's Swine In America

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inhamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube is in- famed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when i, is en- tirely closed, Deafness is the result and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored 10 it's nor. maj condition, hearing will be destroy. ed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which k no.hing but an infiamed condition of the mu- cous surfaces.

Reoularity In Feedino Stock.

PunctuaIity in feeding operations promotes the fattening process in stock. Animals become accustomed 10 fixed hours for meals. and when fed irreguiarly they become uneasy. nervous and are inclined to lose con dition.

somewhat resembles, but is much sweeter and richer. The hubbling me iody also suggests the Wren's song. It is one of the prettiest bits of bird mu- sic that we have.
 The song of the Golden-crowned is to me similar 10 the Black burman War bleris. His call notes, heard usually as the birds travel in small companies in the fall and winter, are rather ra- pid .'tse tse tse,e which l have often confused with the Chicadedeeis notes, with whom the Golden-erowned often associates.
 Both of the KingIets are olive. green above and lwhitish underneath.
 The Ruby.crowned has red crown patch while the Golden-crowned has an orange and yellow crown bordered by black.
 Their summer home is in the north.
 THE BROWN eREEpER.
 The Creeper is fairly common in the late fall and winter.
 His only note when with us is faint lisping sound, generally not noticed al all.
 He ereeps about our tree-trunks, busily digging into the bark with his rather long slender curved bill, in his hunt for insects and larva.
 Length some over five inches. Back streaked white, black and brown White below.

The song is trill, resembling the Chipping Sparfows, but more musical. Gfeenish-yellew throat and breast; white wing bars, and white in tail; above yellowish.
 YELLOW PALM WARBLER.
 As the Black. poll winds up the spring procession Of Nafblers, so the Yellow Palm heads IL, sometimes ar irving as early as April Ith. When fishing for trout along some bush-ber- dered brook, the little yellowish bird, with brown cap, seen jumping about In the brushes, and moving his tail ra- pidly up and down, as If using 1t to maintain his equilibrium, is probably the Yellow Palm.
 The song is q rather loud triil. Iy the end of April he has left for the north, where he nests.
 TIE WATER THRUSH.
 This bird, although called Trush, and slreaked like one, and resembling T Sandpiper in the choice of his haunts, which are the vicinity of brooks and shores of ponds, is in reality Warb- Ter. The continuous dipping of the tail also suggests the Sandpiper.
 He is, think, more common in the autumn than in the spring, when he may be seen walking about near the water.
 Length about six inches; olive above, yellowish beneath, thickly streaked with black.
 WILSON WARBLER
 Here Is another warbler who prefers the undergrewth and brushes by the roadside, thiekets, and the bushy vici- nity of water, rather than the larger growth. Not abundant and not ap- preaching the house, he Is often over looked.
 The song Is high, rather faint trill, all on the same pitch, but with first a slight increase, then decreases in vo- lume.
 lie visits Us about the middle of May, then goes north 10 begin preparations for his home.
 Black cap; olivegr above; yellow under parts; no wing bars.

PARuIA WARBLER.
 The beautiful little Parula Is very abundant for couple of weeks in NJ y and, as he is not shy, one may easily get acquainted with him.
 The song Is asshort, sometim s broken, lazy, unmusical trill, with all upword slide. What this smail Warh- Ter lacks in song he makes up in the beauty Of his plumape. This is bluish slate above, with yellowish patch on the back; underneath he is whitish, but with yellow throat and breast, usu- ally with an orange. colored spot on the breast, white spots on wing.
 a Sometimes his simple song Is heard carly in June, and, although l have never found the nest, have no doubt but that it may be found In certain To- ealities about here.
 MAGNOLIA WARBLER.
 The song of the Magnolia Warbler bears a strong resemblance to that of the Chestnut-sided Warbler, but Is less powerful and energetic.
 The Magnolia seems to prefer the un- dergrowth of the woods, thickets, and shrubbery and fruit trees about the house, rather than the tops of high trees where most Warblers love 10 for age.
 Ills spring visit is made in the early or middle part of May. Crown bluish, back black; white in wings; yellow below, with breast and sides heavily streaked with black, vel low above the tail and white bar across the tail.
