large plate glass windows, and are as lit

was also special suite for Queen Anne

The king and his suite were attended
by some forty of King Georges servants

Thousands Raised without Any Water
Except What They Drink

From Country Life in America.
Raising ducks on dry land reads to the
layman very much like running a locomo-
tive without steam. and yet ducks-In-
dian Runner ducks. the .1eghorns of the
duck family--are raised generation after
generation with only the water they
drink and what little Is contained in
their food.
On plot of ground two and one-half
acres In extent. not all OF which is util-
lied for the purpose, Joseph W. Scull.
at vineiand, N. j., carries $50 Indian
Runner ducks in ten houses with large
runs. This Is the fourth year of Mr..
Scull's experience with ducks-previous-
ly he raised chickens for II years-and
he unhesitatingly recommends Indian
Runners in preference to chickens.

male, artificial incubation and brooding

to be almost beyond belief. Kept in con-

duction, some ducks, or possibly every
duck, will on some days lay two eggs

Flow TO Get Rid
Of Catarrh
d Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and It
Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know

fering. You can get rid Of it by simple,
safe, inexpensive home treatment dis
covered by Dir. Blosser, who, for over
thirty-six years has been treating catarrh

treatment than any of these. 1t cleans
out the head, nose, throat and lungs so
that you can again breathe freely andslccp
without that stopped-up feeling that all
catarrh sufferersl have. 1t heals the dis
eascd mucous membranes and arrests the
foul discharge, SO that you will not be
constantly blowing your nose and spit
ting, and at the same time it does not
poison the system and ruin the stomach,
as internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment with
out cost, send your address to DR.. ]. w.
Blosser, ia Walton Street, Atlanta, Ga,
and he will send you by return mail
enough Of the medicine to satisfy you that
it is all he claims for it as a remedy for
catarrh, catarrhal headaches, catarrhal
deafness, asthma, bronchitis. colds and all
catarrhal complications. He will also
send you free an illustrated booklet.
