What to Read.

TEL me what a man reads
and | will tell you what he is, /"
said wise writer; for little by
little the things that we read
become our thoughts. and make
the very texture of the mind.
During the last few months
the attention of the American
people has been aroused to the
consideration of pure and impure
foods. This agitation has done
good, for with the abundance of
good food there is little excuse
for using any food which is
harmful. The time has come
when the American family must
give better attention than in the
past to another natter the
choice between good and bad
reading. We have read enough
about wickedness in both public
and private life; too many stories
OF criminal transactions; too
much about the evil and not
enough about the good in life.
Let US have the bright and
clean side of our American life
only. Let us read stories of he
roes who are both brave and
noble, and not vulgar and con-
fessed criminals. The mission
OF Che press ID TO help the reader, |
not drag him down; to suggest
high, not low ideals.
At this season the average
American family selects period
icals for the next year. Let the
choice be only for clean, whole
some, patriotic periodicals. Send
for the Prospectus Of the 1910
volume Of The Youths Compan-
ion and see what an amount of
the best reading selected from
the worlds abundance Of every
sort can be had for only $1.75-

The old fashioned way Of dos
ing u weak stomach, or stimulat-
ing the heart or kidneys is ali
wrong. DR.. Shoop first pointed
out this error. This is why his
prescription DR.. Shoop's Re-
storative is directed entirely to
the cause of these ailments-the
weak inside or controlling
nerves. IL isn't so difficult. says
DR.. Shoop. to strengthen a weak
stomach. heart, or kidneys. II
one goes at it correctly. Each
inside organ has its controlling
or inside nerve. When these
nerves fail. then those organs
must surely falter. These vital
truths are leading Druggists
everywhere to dispense and rec
comend DR.. Shoop's Restorative.

CLEANLINESS IN FEEDING
Feeding Floors Which Are Kept
Free From Dust or Mud
Are indispensable.
Hy A. D. puRHANs.

The hog responds as quickly to
cleanliness and care as any farm ami
NAL. Not long since I was greatly
impressed with the lack of sanitary
conditions around the yards and houses
OF man who had been growing hogs
more or less successfully for ten years.
His feeding troughs were foul with
decayed food. The floors were damp
and ill-smelling and the yards were
damp and full OF mud holes that good
drainage would have prevented.
All fixtures In a hog house should
be movable. 1t Is advantageous to
have the troughs where they may bs
washed or scalded out twice each week,
at least. Foul troughs are good breed
ing places for parasites that may be
taken into the stomach and converted
into worms.
Damp floors may be overcome II the
house is we'll aired and windows
enough are in 1t to let the sunshine
In on the floors.
Do not slop the swill into the bed
ding or on the floors at feeding time
