a substantial competence. have rented
their farms to careful men and will

yet taking 1t easy when they feel like
1t. This Is a capital idea and should
be put into execution much more gen
orally than 1t has been up to the pres
ent time. A nice thing about the plan
is that Ii will also mean a let-up In
toll and somewhat more leisure for
the wife, to whose efforts, intelligence
and economy large measure Of the i'm
proved financial condition Is due. II
there Is one spectacle more than an
other that is pitiable as well as de-
plorab Bile 1t is that Of the man who has
worked hard to amass property and
when 1t Is accumulated keeps on In the
same old treadmill until he topples
over into the grave already bearing
the remains Of a wife done to death
with the internal grind. while the
property that he had looked forward
to enjoying with keen anticipation
quite likely becomes at once the prey
and sport of greedy heirs. 1t is good
time to halt before this extreme pass
is reached and before the capacity to
enjoy some of the fruits of ones long
toll is entirely lost

Thirty years ago James G. Lee of
HOO 9th ST., s. E. Washington, ID. c.,
fell from a scaffold and seriously in
jured his back. In telling about it he
says:-"My suffering was terrible;
from the small of my back around my
stomach was just as If l had been
beaten with cub. tried all kinds
of plaster, belladonna, capcine and
porous, without getting relief, and
bought so-called electric belts, but
none of them did me any good.
One day, while working near my
daughters house, my back panied me
so badly that had to quit. l went
into the house and lay down for ease.
My daughter had bottle of Sloan's
Liniment in the house and she rubbed
my back we'll with it and gave me
some to take home. 1 used six and a
half bottles of Sloan's Csc Liniment

One Million Dollars for
A Good Stomach
This Offer Should be Warning To
Every Man and Woman

The newspapers and medical jour
mails recently have had much to say
relative to famous millionaire's
offer of a million dollars for new
stomach.
This great multi millionaire was too
busy to worry about the conditions of
his stomach. He allowed his dyspep-
STA to run from bad to worse until in
the end it became incurable.
His misfortune serves as a warning
to others.
Everyone who suffers with dyspep-
STA for few years will give every
thing he owns for a new stomach.
Dyspepsia is caused by an aonor-
NAL state of the gastric juices.
There is one element missing. The
absence of this destroys the function
of the gastric fluids. They lose their
power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the
missing element-to restore to the
gastric juices their digestive power,
and to make the stomach strong and
well.
We know that Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets will positively and perma-
nently cure disordered stomachs, in
digestion and dyspepsia. .
We want you to try them and will
return your money if you are not
more than satisfied with the result.

MISPLACED CONFIDENCE.


1t Is sometimes pathetic to see the
way in which freaky and variable
weather will sport with the blind In
stinct of wild bird life. We have in
mind the late unprecedented January
thaw. with its succession of bright.
springlike days. as result Of which
wild geese were lured as far north as
southern Minnesota. only to be a little
later buffeted and driven south by one
of the worst billiards. of a decade. A
little later pretty meadow lark was
observed giving its sweet and inspir-
tng call on ground hog day, when, ac-
ccrding to popular superstition. the
signs were indubitable that there
would be at least six weeks more of
winter weather. In spite of the fact
that their confidence In Mother Ma
ture is often misplaced the wild
things fare quite well and are usually
able to cope with any adverse condi-
tons with which they may be con-
fronted.

The Ribston apple. or Ribston pippin,

PREPARED SPRAYING MIXTURES.

PREPARED SPRAYING MIXTURES.
A friend who has a three acre ap-
pie orchard nine years old, the fruit
from which for two or three years
has been virtually worthless because
of worm and scab damage, makes in
Quiry about the quality of already pre-
pared commercial spray materials.
This is a question that 1t would be
somewhat difficult to answer. because
the reliability of such preparations
would depend almost entirely upon
the honor and integrity of the firms
putting them on the market. 1t is fair
to assume that firm which would sell
impure chemicals constituting spray
compounds would have even greater
temptation to dishonesty when 1t came
to disposing of connection In which
the identity of the material could be
quite largely concealed. The reverse
would also be true. The preparation
of the common spray liquids is neil
Their a difficult nor a particularly dis
agreeable task. and, as a rule, home
made sprays are stronger and more
effective than those commercially pre-
pared. Every experiment station In
the fruit growing belt has spraying
bulletins which take up the subject OF
spraying materials and methods In de-
tail, and these may be had by making
inquiry for them Of the station OFF,

Clara Morris.

Clara Morris, the retired actress for
whom it is proposed to give benefit
performance in New York at an early
date, was born in Toronto March II.
IS48. When an infant she was taken
by her parents to Cleveland and in that
city she passed her childhood years.
In 1861 she made her stage debut as a
member of the ballet at the Academy
of Music in Cleveland. She made rapid
progress and before she was thirty she
had become a popular favorite. In 1869
she became leading woman at Woods
theater in Cincinnati While there she
came under the critical eye of the late
Augustin DAILY and that noted manager
and producer of plays gave her lead
ing part with his company at the Fifth
Avenue theater In New York. Here she
added to her fame as an emotional act
ress During the years that followed
she was seen in all Of the chief cities
of America and also appeared with sue
| cess on the English stage. In the early
eos she was compelled by i'll health
to quit the stage and since that time
she has been prominent chiefly as a
story writer and journalist.
