it hurts them to even think about it,

Don't let anybody ever think that
Lambertville is anything else but a
rural city We are particularly
proud of that fact. So many places
are trying to be metropolitan that

PACKING HONEY IN
PRINTED CARTONS
Neat Little Receptacles Are Of
Great Convenience to Dealer
and Consumer.

The best grades of comb honey
should be put on the market in neatly
printed cartons. They are great
convenience for the dealer, they serve
to keep honey free from dust, and
also prevent marring the delicate
comb when handling from the gr6cery
to the consumers kitchen.
Cartons are so inexpensive and SO
useful that 1t Is surprising that more
of the best comb honey Is not put on
the market in them.

USEFUL HINTS ON
FEEDING THE HOGS
Animals Should Be Separated
According to Size-Some La
bor-Saving Schemes.

AS a general thing, ON the average
farm too much time is used in feed
ing and caring for hogs. Unnecessar-
lily slow and tedious methods are en-
ployed. whereas shorter cuts in feed
ing than those practiced at present
would produce equally good results
either by the use of horse labor, by
the Encouragement of the feeding
yards and troughs, by the more care
full use OF pasture and crops that may
be harvested by the hogs. and thus
reduce the number of hours required
to care for the animals and at the
same time save labor. says the Iowa
Homestead
Where one Is feeding many hogs II
frequently is a labor saver to use q
horse in transporting swill. water and
feed directly from the tank and bin to
the pens, yards or field In which the
animals are kept. Wide alley hogs
houses make possible using the one
horse truck. not alone for hauling feed
in, but for hauling out the manure
and thereby keeping the surroundings
clean and sanitary.
There are few who have taken the
trouble to separate the shoats accord
ing to size 80 that they could be fed
more easily and satisfactorily. Many
prefer to feed hogs OF all sizes to-
gether, either continuing the feeding
until all are full or else wasting time
chasing the larger ones away until
the smaller ones are fed. Feeding all
the animals will hold is a wasteful
method. while beating up the big ones
while the smaller ones eat is moi
conducive to gains in either the old
or young. 1t is always well in feed
ing hogs to sort according to size and
limit the number to twenty or thirty
in feeding place.

pillars in Basement of Capitol Stand
Forth as Finest Example Of Amer
lean Architecture.

One OF the most striking examples
of pure American architecture has
been recently uncovered by the super
intendent of the capitol" said a lead
ing architect the other day.
After the destruction of the capt.
tol by the British in 1914 the only
distinctive features left were the dec
orations on the stairway of the crypt
and the six columns. or pillars. in the
basement adjacent to the law library
of the United States Supreme court.
For many years these columns have
been painted over until they we're
buried under many coats of white
paint Within the last ten days this
paint has been removed. and the col
umns now stand forth in all their
glory as the finest example of distinc-
lively American architecture extant.
The columns proper represent huge
stalks of maize or Indian corn. and

than to remark. I'm going up to the
capitol" In the first place, "Acropo-
lis" comes from two Greek words
meaning the upper town. or chief place
of city. The most famous Acropolis
of all times was that at Athens. the
ruins of which now are gazed upon
with awe by the traveller abroad Rome
also had an Acropolis surrounding
her capitol. and the Antonia at Jeru-
salem was nothing more or less than
an Acropolis.

second proposal is TO designate as
THE Parthenon" that portion of the
land between Union station and the
capitol lying south of street and
west of Delaware avenue northeast.

Tonic That VIII Keep fhe BorceLs
Gently Active.

Healthy old age is SO absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the bow
els 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 eating
easily digested foods and by plenty of
exercise, but this latter is irksome to
most elderly people. One thing is GER
tain, that a state of constipation should
always be avoided, as it is dangerous
to life and health. The best plan is
to take mild laxative as often as is
deemed necessary. But with equal GER
tainty 1t is suggested that cathartics,
purgatives, physics, salts and pills be
avoided, as they do but temporary good
and are SO harsh as to be shock to q
delicate system.
A much better plan and one that
thousands of elderly people are follow
Ing, is to take a gentle laxative-tonic
like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which
acts as nearly like nature as is possible.
In fact, the tendency of this remedy
is to strengthen the stomach and bowel
muscles and SO train them to act natu-
rally again, when medicines of all
kinds can usually be dispensed with.
