law. which requires that all cattle ex-
hibited at the fairs to which the State

for exhibiting and under the eircum-
stances the department allowed them
to exhibit without a certificate and
called their attention to the fact that
they must have their animals tested
before exhibiting them at the fairs in
1912.
Section II of Chapter 1876 of the
Public Laws of 1911 contains the fol-
lowing requirements: Cattle used

DIABETES.
Treatment That Costs Nothing If II
Fails to Benefit.

Diabetes has long been considered an
incurable disease and the only hope held
out to patients has been to prolong their
years by abstemious living. A newly
discovered plant in Mexico called Dia-
betol herb has been found to be a speci-
fic in the treatment of diabetes, quickly
reducing the specific gravity and sugar,
restoring the weight and building up the
system
The treatment Is very inexpensive;
e1.00 worth of the herb will last two
weeks and will remove the worst symp-
toms In the most aggravated cases. Call
at our store and see the proofs and get

proper foods for diabetes. Bowditch.

ing zeal for the winning Of precious
souls to Christ. While captive in VI
ster his spirit groaned because dark
ness covered the earth and gross dark
ness the people" This vision of Ire
land sunk in spiritual darkness re
manned with him during his training
under St. German and others. He made
the instruction of his great master
bend to this end.
Fourth St Patrick was faithful in
the discharge of his apostolic labOrs
After much difficulty in securing q
landing, he found himself face to face
with his difficult task at an opportune
moment. Not long after his arrival he
proceeded to Tara, the resident Of the
king, Laoghaire In the region Of the
capital he pitched his tent and pro-
ceeded to prepare for the Easter festi-
val which would occure on the follow
ing day 1t was also the time in which
the natives held a DruidiCal feast call
ed the Racn Before the building of
the altar fires the king had ordered
universal darkness and was much
surprised and angered to see strange
fires lighted. which was the burning
of the paschal lamb The magicians
tried to prevent The king from meet
ing St. Patrick. but in vain. They met,
and the king was charmed with the
sweet personality of St. Patrick, and
learning that he had no evil design IN
the kingdom allowed him TO present
the gospel. While the king remained
an unbeliever the rest of his days he
allowed St Patrick 10 preach the Cos
pei in Ireland and from that day the
conquest of che island was assured.
Let me now consider, as a closing
thought. how far miracle entered into
the marvellous successes Of this great
missionary Of course, we cannot ac-
cept all that has been attributed TO
st. Patrick, for no scholar can do that.
But did miracle enter at all? After
much dickering with the vacilIating
magicians. the following test was
agreed upon as to the comparative
merits Of Christianity and Druldlsm:
4 house was built One-half Of green
wood and the other Of dry. In the
green part was put a magician clad
in ST. Parick's robe; in the dry part
one Of the new converts with the ma
gician's robe The house was set on
fire and the green part with the ma
gician and the saints robe was re-
duced to ashes but the dry part with
the convert was untouched

habit of saying q. thing is untrue sim
ply because I can't understand it. I
simply say this, that I have come
from my studies of St. Patrick amazed
at what God wrought through him,
even if much is mysterious. But, aft
CT all due allowance is made for eX-
; travagances, enough remains to justify
the Irish race for laying their tributes
at his feet, for in all the annals Of
