HEALTH FOR THE CHILD.

The careful mother, watching close.
ly the physical peculiarities of her
children, soon learns that health is in
a great measure dependent upon nor
nal, healthy, regular bowel action.
When the bowels are inactive, loss Of
appetite, restlessness during sleep, ir-
ritability and a dozen and one similar
evidences Of physical disorder are soon
apparent
Keep the bowels free and clear and
good health is assured. At the first
sign Of constipation give the child a
teaspoonfHl of DR.. CaldweT's Syrup
Pepsin at bedtime and repeat the
dose the following night, ii necessary.
You will find the child will quickly re-
cover its accustomed good spirits, and
eat and sleep normally.
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable to salts, cathartics and
purgative waters which are harsh in
their action. Syrup Pepsin acts on
the bowels easily and naturally, yet
positively, and causes no gripping or
discomfort. It's tonic properties build
up the stomach, liver and bowels, re.
storing their normal condition.
Druggists everywhere sell DIR. Cald
wells Syrup Pepsin in SOC and s1O0
hotties. If you have never tried this
remedy, send for a sample to Dr. w.
B. Caldwell, POI Washington ST., Mon,
ticello, Ill. He will gladly send
trial bottle without any expense
you whatever.

State Yields Pure Seed.

State Yields Pure Seed.
Wisconsin will soon take the lead
as a producer of high grade pure seed
grain, according to Assemblyman H.
E. Kruger of Beaver Dam, who is
himself one of the chief representa-
tives of this new industry This state
possesses to a high degree all the
qualities that will eventually make 1t
the seed market of the world, If Wis
consin farmers will only seriously APP
ply themselves to the work OF grow
ing pure seeds.
Wisconsin farmers now sell nearly
81. 900 900 worth of pedigreed seeds
a year, and they could just as easily
sell S2O,0O0,O00 worth, it is said, II
they were only in position to supply
the demand. Everywhere farmers are
waking up to the truth of what the
agricultural colleges have been teach
ing them, that large proportion OF
ordinary seed never terminates, and
that the only remedy is to plant pure
seed.
I'm many other states" says Mr..
Kruger. the quality of the seed de-
teriorates within two or three crops,
so that it is necessary for the farmers
continually to come to this state for
a fresh supply of the pedigreed seed.
Farmers in Iowa tell me the rust to
which the grains of that state are
liable rapidly deteriorates the quality
of their grains and that they have to
renew this stock at least once in three
years. 1t is easy to see what an enor-
nous industry this will be when we
get the bulk of the farmers OF this
and other countries to realize the i'm
portance of planting none but pure
bred seeds"

Shot With a Knife.

Years ago in stock performance Of
