FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY
Where the Winters Are Cold and tho

Writing from the vicinity David
Harum made famous, man says that
he was an habitual coffee drlnker, and,
although he knew it was doing him
harm, was too obstinate to give 1t up,
till all at once he went to pieces with
nervousness and insomnia, loss Of APP
petite, weakness, and generally
used-up feeling, which practically un-
fitted him for his arduous occupation,
and kept him ON a couch at home
when his duty did not call him out.
while in this condition Grape
Nuts food was suggested to me, and
began to use it. Although 1t was in
the middle Of winter, and the Their
mometer was often below zero, almost
my entire living for about six weeks
of severe exposure was on Grape-Nuts
food with little bread and butter and
a cup of hot water, till was wise
enough to make Postum my table beV-

to feel better and during the whole
winter l never lost a trip on my mail

THE constant marvel to me was
how a person could do the amount Of
work and endure the fatigue and hard
ship as / did, on so small an amount
of food But found my new rations
so perfectly satisfactory that have
continued them-using both Postum
and Grape-Nuts at every meal, and
often they comprise my entire meal.
"All my nervousness, irritability and
insomnia have disappeared and healthy,
natural sleep has come back to me.
But what has been perhaps the great
est surprise to me is the fact that
with the benefit to my general health
has come a remarkable improvement

BEES HAVE DIRECTIVE SENSE

Others. with Dadent. believe that
bees are guided by a sense Of smell.

Besides. when organs Of smell are re-

At 500 feet from the hive BONNER
places a supply Of strip and the bees
soon find It, proceeding from and to
the hive. These he marks green.
Then he places a second set 20 feet
from the former. Other bees are now
engaged in the movement TO and from
this point. but there are not the green
marked individuals. lie marks these

OF bees. And they can distinguish

LEGH0RNS ARE BEST LAYERS
Hardy and Consequently Easy for
PouItrymen to Raise.

Leghorns live and are profitable
longer than other breeds. Large hens
put on fat after the first year and do
not lay so we'll afterward. Leghorns
lay well until four or five years old
and Leghorn on free range will never
get fat enough to hinder her laying.
Like all other fowls they are at their
best during the first and second years
of their lives, but as long as a Leg
horn hen looks bright and thrifty she
will lay profitably, says a writer in an
exchange. This in great measure
offsets the fact that their bodies are
too small to sell well as dressed poul
try, however the buyers here pay as
much per pound for them as for any.
They are accused of not laying as
well during the winter as the larger
hens. If the houses are cold enough

KING GEORGE MAY VISIT U. S.

That the plan to have King George

Giles not word is being said aloud on

But if the filth is allowed to accu-

Probably in the history of philan-

charity than Mrs Russell Sage, who,
since the death Of her noted husband,

are as follows: The anti-tuberculosis
campaign, the movement for public
recreation, the placing out and man

the medical inspection of schools, the
oTopaganda in behalf of children's
school gardens, the propaganda for the
prevention Of blindness, especially
among children, and the encourage
