quarters of Remarkable Relief
From Rheumatism.

The apparent success which Professor |
James M. Munyon, the world famous
health authority, has been meeting in
San Francisco has started much dis
cussion. The continuous stream of
callers has kept Dr. Munyon s expert
representatives busy every day for
several weeks at the main store of the
Owl Drug Company, San Francisco,
where he has established headquarters
for meeting the people.
Munyon S following seems to be
enormous. Those who believe in his
theories seem to think he possesses the
most marvellous powers for the heal
ing of all sorts of diseases. Munyon,
himself, laughs at this. He says:
"The hundreds of cures which you
are hearing about every day in San
Francisco are not in any way due to
my personal skill. 1t is my remedies,
which represent the combined brains
of the greatest medical specialists
science has ever known, that is doing
the work. l have paid thousands of
dollars for single formula and the
have paid tens of thousands of dollars
for others of my various forms of
treatment. That is why L get such
remarkable results. 1 have simply
bought the best products of the best

knowledge within the reach of the
general public"

VALUE OF PURE-BRED HORSES
Any Farmer With Ordinary Skill g. -
Judgment Can Succeed With
High-Class Draft Animals.

Pure-bred colts will sell for more at
one or two years Of age than will
grade horses when fully mature, says
the Canadian Farmer. Even weanlings
that have pedigree ancestors Of indi-
vidual merit are selling from $500 to
$3.50 this winter. Good prices are not
received by the big breeders alone. An
illinois farmer who keeps half a dozen
0ure-bred Percheron mares which he
works steadily has sold his colts as
satisfactorily as have the professional
breeders. He has sold several at the
age of one or two years for $500
apiece. From one mare he has sold a
stallion for $500 at three years old.
Another brought $1,000 at auction. A
1lly was sold for $500 when year.

There is nothing mystifying about

and judgment can succeed with draf
horses, for draft horses are as easily

REMINISCENT.

AS wandered today by the deep blue
sea
And watched the great waves roll,
The song they seemed to sing to me
Was the song of a frenzied soul.
AS they gathered strength and came
proudly on
Like great beings of destiny,
Only to find themselves shattered and
gone
on the rocky walls by the sea.
How many on life's tempestuous sea
Are trying to reach goal
That will immortalize them for
eternity,
Their ambition of heart and soul!
Who battle against life's merciless
waves,
And struggle valiently on,
To find that their hopes, like the waves
Of the sea,
Are broken, shattered, and gone.
But brothers. for us there's gift in
the clouds,
With the sunshine of hope breaking
through.
In our climb for the top we have the
loyal support
OF our brotherhood tried and true.
So let your aim be high and your
fight well fought
While riding life's troublous sea,
With Unity, Temperance and Charity
your aides,
For you are u. c. T.
