about the battle line. 1t seemed practt-

OF which uttered these sentences:
This is the elimination Of one of the

Gratis are now not only victorious. but

What said on the 3Oth day of Sep
fember holds good at the end Of the

gress. This session was called to re-
wise the tariff according to Democratic
ideas. and that is just what has been
accomplished. 1t has passed the best
tariff bill ever enacted into law, and
It ought to remain on the statute books
longer than any other tariff act in the
history OF the country. Up to the
present time I have believed the Wal

try ever had. Now place the Under

Spring Clipping Of Horses.

The modern practice among the bess
posted and most progressive horse owners
and farmers is TO clip all horses in the
spring. 1t is done on the theory that in
their natural state horses were not obliged
to work, SO could shed the winter coat in
comfort over period of several weeks.
Since we oblige them to do hard work on
warm spring days, the winter coat should
be removed for the same reason that we
lay off our heavy winter garments. Clipped
horses dry off rapidly. hence they do not
take cold az easily nor are they ss prone
to be affected with other ailments as un-
clipped animals whose longer hair holds
the perspiration for hours. Because clipped
horses dry off rapidly they rest better, get
more good from their food and come out
In the morning refreshed and fit for work.
Since the advent of the ball bearing en-
closed gear clipping machine, the work of
taking off the winter coat is easy. With
the machine horse can be clipped all over
In half an hour, whereas with the old two
hand clipper it required several hours to
do it.
Dairymen also now eli, the cows all
over two or three times year The tanks
and udders are clipped every three or four
weeks, so it is easy to clean the parts be-
fore milking. This means less opportunity
for dirt and other impurities to get into
the milk.

Bowels Get Weak.
AS Age Advances
The First Necessity is to
Keep the Bowels Gently
ODen With a Mild
L1xnfive 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 a state of con-
stipation should always be avoided as
it 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 it 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 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 naturally again, when medicines
of all kinds can usually be dispensed
with. This is the opinion of many
people of different ages, among them

CLEAR HEADED
Head 6ookkeeper Must Be Reliable.

The chief bookkeeper in large
Western cities speaks of the harm
coffee did for him. (Tea is. just as
Injurious because it contains caffeine,
the same drug found in coffee.)
"My wife and drank our first cup
af Postum little over two years ago
and we have used it ever since, to the
entire exclusion of tea and coffee. It
happened in this way:
About three and a half years ago
I had an attack of pneumonia, which
left a memento in the shape OF dys-
pepsia, or rather, to speak more cor.
rectly. neuralgia of the stomach. My
cup of cheer had always been coffee
or tea, but / became convinced, after
q time, that they aggravated my stom-
ach trouble. 1 happened to mention
the matter to my grocer one day and
he suggested that / give Postum
trial.
Next day It came, but the cook
made the mistake of not boiling it suf-
hciently, and we did not like it much.
This was. however, soon remedied,
and now we like it so much that we
will never change back. Postum, be-
ing food beverage instead of drug,
has been the means of banishing my
stomach trouble, l verify believe, for
I am a well man today and have used
no medicine.

our Co.'s branch house here is of a
very combining nature. During my COT
