Our friend, an enthusiastic first

himself from the press and hurried
forward, only to find a poor pumpkin
lying beside the train minus five toes.
The engineer explained that this man
had stood on the track, grinning at
the locomotive, until toppled over by
the cowcatcher, notwithstanding the
frantic efforts Of the fireman, who
pulled the whistle rope with one hand
and strewn coal on him with the
other.
A peculiar thrill attends the pull
ing out from the railroad and the
plunge into the interior. Even the old
mules start more briskly at the first

were all little Jumps as though full of

anything like it and hope I never will
again. The itching was terrible. My
hands got SO I could scarcely work.

Bowels Get Weak
AS Age Advances
The First Necessity is to
Keep the Bowels Gently
Open With a Mild
! Laxative Tonic

Healthy old age is so absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition OF the
bowels that great care should be taken
to see that they act regularly. The fact
IS that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive
and the liver does not store up the
Juices that are necessary to prompt
digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by
plenty of exercise, but this latter is
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing is certain, that q state OF con-
stipation should always be avoided as
&c Is dangerous to life and health. The
best plan is to take a mild laxative
as often as is deemed necessary. But
with equal certainty 1t Is suggested
that cathartics. purgatives, physics,
salts and pills be avoided, as they do
out temporary good and are SO harsh
as 20 be a shock to a delicate system.
much better plan, and one that
thousands of elderly people are follow
ing, Is to take a gentle laxative-tonic
like DR.. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin,
which acts as nearly like nature as is
possible. III fact, the tendency OF this
remedy is to strengthen the stomach
and bowel muscles and so train them
co act naturally again. when medicines
of all kinds can usually be dispensed
with. This Is the opinion of many
people Of different ages, among then

MAKING a New Lawn.

A good lawn can be grown any
wtere III the northern states and upon
any kind of surface SOIL One rea.
sou so many new lawns fail is because
the soil which is taken out in ex-
cavating for the new house is spread
over the lot, covering up the old sur
face soil. The deep or sub-soil is
worthless for growing anything, not
because it contains no plant food, but
because it's plant food is held in such
chemical combinations that plants can
not digest it. Action of frost, air, sun
light and bacteria, must take place be-
fore the plant can live in it. If this
eXcavated soil must be used for grad
ing purposes, cover it with three
inches of good loan or black earth if
you want grass to grow there.
Given ordinary surface soil to start
with, the first step Is to pillow or spade
it about six inches deep. At this time
turn under good cover of stable
manure and then work the soil to a
fine seed bed, just as for a garden.
Level the surface, fill in the hollows
and then broadcast a commercial fer
tilizer, using about one-fourth pound
to the square yard. A good fertilizer
is composed of one part muriate of
potash, five parts steamed bone meal,
one part slaked lime. 1t will be we'll
to use the lime anyway, as it puts the
soil in fine shape, although it is with
out value as direct plant food. Now
roll the ground to make it firm and
form a good passage up for the water
in the sub-soil Just as soon as the
soil has been rolled it should be raked,
or narrowed with fine tooth harrow,
the seed should be sown broadcast,
and the soil should be raked or har-
rowed crossways, to cover the seed
lightly. Do this the same day you
roll the ground or it will dry out too
much.
Your scotsman can furnish you with
excellent mixtures of lawn seed or
you can make an ideal seed mixture
by using As per cent. each of Ken
lucky blue grass and red top, with 10
per cent. white clover seed by weight
Sow it by hand on a still day, while
the surface of the soil is damp. Sow
on the basis of handful of seed to
the square yard.
If the sowing has to be done late in
the spring or during a very hot, dry
period, it will be we'll to give the soil
a light mulch of straw or strawy
manure
A cover crop such as oats or rye is
often used, but is not particularly ad-
vantageous except for shade and it
uses up a great deal of water and
plant food
Keep the new lawn we'll watered
during the growing season and cover
it with fine stable manure during the
first winter

Wax From Apiary.

To get the most wax from an apiary
it pays occasionally to scrape the
frames, honey boards and the inside
CT the hives, and when old frames are
broken up. They do make nice kin
ding wood, but before using them
they should be boiled. for there is
wax sticking to the old frames even
after they, are scraped seemingly
clean, and as each pound Of wax rep
resents several pounds of honey, all
cappings removed when preparing
combs for the extractor, all scrapings
and trimmings and bits of drone comb
are to be saved and rendered into
wax.

Startinu With Chickens.

Thousands of new fiocks Of chick
ems will be started off this spring with
great enthusiasm and still greater ex-
pectations It happens SO every year.
The fifty or sixty odd poultry papers,
the hundred odd agricultural and nor
ticultural journals, the several nun
dred poultry shows given each year
by as many local poultry associa-
tions. the thousands upon thousands
of established breeders Of pure fowls,
the agricultural colleges and expert
ment stations-all Of these agencies
are doing mighty work in their ef-
forts to interest all of us in poultry
keeping.
We believe, with the poets, that
"'Tis better to have loved and lost
than never to have loved" and 1T is
doubly true that any one will be bet
ter off and have broader outlook, be
nearer what he or she should be, Dy
having got back into touch with ma
ture through the care of little chick
ems and their parents. If, at the same
time. YOU have not made hnanclai
success. it will be nobody's fault but
your own, unless you are a vlctlm Oh
circumstances beyond control.
Small fiocks of chickens car always
be handled profitably by observing a
few very simple rules. 1t is only with
great big flocks that the odds are
against us. In starting out at THIS
time of the year, one can either buy
eggs and hatch them, or day-old chicks
can be purchased and raised, either
with hens or small brooders. For

! try, the ideal scheme is to go 10 some
