PREACH GOSPEL OF HEALTH
Plan to Have One Sermon on Sunday,
April "a, Devoted to Scourge
of tuberculosis.

Following campaigns against con-
sumption that have been carried on IN
the churches of hundreds Of cities, and
sermons on tuberculosis that have
been preached before thousands of con-
gregations during the past year, a
movement has been started by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention Of tuberculosis to estab-
lish permanent tuberculosis Sunday,
on which it is hoped that every one of
the 100000 church-goers in the
United States will hear the gospel of
health. This year the Sunday selected
is April "a. 1t is planned that on April
"a tuberculosis sermons shall be
preached in all the churches Of the
country. Literature will be distributed
to members of the congregations, and
in every way an effort will be made to
teach that tuberculosis is a dangerous
disease and that it can be prevented
and cured.
Clergymen who desire to obtain adj
ditional information in regard to tu
berculosis will be able to secure litera-
Dure from state and local anti-tubercu-
Losis associations and boards of health,
as well as from the national asso-
citation.

THE MOTHER AND THE BOY
Childish Condolences That Should
Never Be Repealed, But Al
ways Encouraged.

A boys heart is full and overflow
ing. He needs some one who will listen
to his condolences. If he is repealed
and finds himself alone, he becomes
fretful, indolent or worse. His affairs
are not nonsense" A good mother
never says: Run away; 1 am busy"
She listens, encourages.
Important discoveries may be made
in these outpourings. She gives SYM
pathy, enters into his feelings, sees
things from his point of view. If he
tells her of something which proves
that he is at fault, she does not repri-
mand at the time, because this will
check further condolences. She gives
her attention quietly, tells him she is
glad he has confided in her, and that
she will talk of it again to him.
If a mother has insight she can
solve many problems. She is interest
ed in her boys sports, collections, his
school and companions. The choice of
his companions should not be left to
chance. 1t is we'll if they are from
families known to his parents.

WHAT'S THE USE
Sticking to a Habit When 1t Means
Discomfort?

Old King Coffee knocks subjects
out tolerably fiat at times, and there
is no possible doubt of what did it. A
Mich. woman gives her experience:
81 used to have liver trouble nearly
all of the time and took medicine
which relieved me only for a little
while. Then every once in a while
would be suddenly doubled up with
an awful agony in my stomach. It
seemed as though every time took a
breath l would die. No one could
suffer any more and live.
Finally I got down so sick with
catarrh of the stomach that I could
not turn over in bed, and my stomach
did not digest even milk. The doctor
finally told me that if I did not give up
drinking coffee would surely die, but
l felt 1 could not give it up
However, Husband brought home a
package of Postum and it was made
strictly according to directions. It
was the only thing that would stay
on my stomach, and I soon got so
liked it very much.
Gradually l began to get better, and
week by week gained in strength and
health. Now I am in perfect condi-
ton, and I am convinced that the whole
cause of my trouble was coffee drink
ing, and my getting better was due to
leaving off coffee and drinking Postum.
"a short time ago I tasted some
coffee and found. to my establishment,
that did not care anything about it.

more. I hope you will use this letter
for the benefit of those suffering from
the poisonous effects of coffee"

NOXIOUS WEEDS TAINT MILK
Cows Should Not Be Allowed to Feed
Upon Pastures Where Injurious
Plants Are Grown.
(By G. S. MILLER.)

If weeds are allowed to grow in the
field they will in great many ways
depreciate the value of farm products.
During the season of the year when
the grass is short COWS should not be
allowed to feed upon pastures where
noxious weeds such as sumac, milk
weeds, poppies, skunk cabbage and
rag weed grow.
Neither should these weeds be left
to grow in meadows and grain fields
where they are cut with the hay and
grain to be fed to cattle. A few hours
spent in cutting and destroying weeds
is time we'll spent.
Cattle will eat the foliage Of these
plants at any time of the year, but are
more likely to feed upon them dur
ing the months when the grass in the
pasture is short.
A stream of pure, clear water comes,
beyond doubt, from pure source.
In like manner it may be said that
healthy, we'll fed COWS produce pure,
wholesome milk.
Is it too broad statement to say
that pure, wholesome milk comes
from sound, healthy COWS only and
that impure, unwholesome milk is pro-
duced by unsound, unhealthy COWS?
It is not my intention to go into a
discussion of the diseases common
among cattle, but to emphasize how
easily the milk of cows is tainted
through their food.
Aromatic plants, such as the ones
have mentioned above, always possess
an odor peculiar to themselves, and
when taken into the body possess the
power to penetrate the entire syRtem,
even into the milk in the udder.
Here we find the odor the same in
the milk as it is in the plant. These
plants cannot be said to injure the
health of the COWS, but they injure the
sale of the milk and butter produced
by the COWS that eat them.
Aromatic foods such as carrots, po-
tatoes. cabbage and turnips, which
produce unpleasant doors, are often
fed during tn winter months, but must
be fed very carefully to avoid bad
effects.
A good way to get rid of these eff
fects is to feed a small amount after
milking-not short time before milk
ing-so the aromatic products have a
chance to pass from the system.
Aromatic weeds in the hay and
straw, if eaten by the cows, will faint
the milk just as readily and often to
a great disadvantage. 1t is almost an
impossibility to feed turnips and ruta-
bagas without noticing the odor in the
milk.
By feeding six or eight pounds of
grain, mixed with some wet bran, a
cow may be fed as high as a half
bushel of carrots or sugar beets with
out its being noticeable in the milk.
One-fourth of a bushel, however, Is
about the right amount to feed.
A small feed of good sweet clover
hay half hour or more before milk
ing helps to carry the odor out of tho
milk in the udder.

ing and careful handling. She should
be halter broke and by gentleness
made easy to handle. The heifer
should be fed to develop a strong,
healthy body and large frame.
There is no danger from fever when
fed UP to calving time with such foods
as wheat bran, mixed clover and red
not be given except in small quanti-
ties. The udder should be rubbed to
develop the milk veins. The Danish
dairyman considers this of great val
ue in increasing the capacity of the
udder. The blood being filled with
ilk-producing elements causes a
greater growth of the glands of the
udder. To have gentle cows the
calves should have regular stalls, and
be properly battered while eating their
wheat bran and whole oats and mixed
hay After the feed is eaten let them
have the run of q well-protected yard

bedded shed to go under at night.
The shed should be roomy, we'll.
lighted, with wide doors to go in and
out Young stock should not be hal
tered up either day or night, as close
confinement is injurious.
Many well-bred COWS are perma-
nently injured by careless treatment
and improper food. A brutal herds
man is not fit to handle COWS, or any
stock. Better let him go.

Churn often and never allow the
cream to become too sour if you want
sweet butter.
The man who feeds each cow by the
same rule will never get the most

Good unadulterated milk should con-
tain about 81 per cent. of water and
10 per cent. solids.
Cows MIXED by the calf from year

Milk is mostly waterfall milk, not
Just the kind the milkman leaves at

COOLING the Milk.

The cooling of milk is considered by
portant point The advantage of cool
Ing is that it prevents the growth OF
bacteria and organisms which are apt
to develop bad flavors in the milk.
There are two ways of cooling milk.
One is by the maximum of exposure
to the air, and the other is by the
minimum exposure to the air. The
first method has this advantage, that
you cool milk quickly.

TINY BRBY'S PITIFUL CASE

Our baby when two months old
was suffering with terrible eczema
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked just like a skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothes
on her. At first it seemed to be few
mattered pimples. They would break
the skin and peel off leaving the I'M
derneath skin red as though it were
scalds. Then a few more pimples
would appear and spread all over the
body, leaving the baby all raw without
skin from head to foot. On top of her
head there appeared a heavy scab a
quarter of an inch thick. 1t was aw-
full to see so small baby look as she
did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid
to put his hands to the child. We
tried several doctors remedies but all
failed
'"Then we decided to try Cuticura.
By using the Cuticura Ointment we
softened the scab and it came off. I'm
der this, where the real matter was,
by washing with the Cuticura Soap
and applying the Cuticura Ointment,
a new skin soon appeared We also
gave baby four drops of the Cuticura
Resolvent three times daily. After
three days you could see the baby
gaining little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
BABY is four months old. She is fine
picture of fat little baby and all is
well. We only used one cake of Cuti-
cura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent If people would know what
Cuticura is there would be few suffer
ing with eczema. Mrs. Joseph Koss-
