@. l note in a recent "Kurios" you

Demonstration Meetings.

Oranges can do much for the farm
ers of the community where they are
located by holding "demonstra ton"
meetings, especially in the spring sea-
leges or schools or from experiment
stations can usually be secured for the
work. If such instructors are not
available every grange has members
able to do some demonstrating that
would help the others. Tree pruning,
spray mixing. treating seed potatoes
for scab and seed oats for smut and
dozens of other things can be demon
strated better than told. The effort is
worth while.

A SERMON FROM NATURE.

Let us be cheerful like the birds.
Old robin, singing there.
Has little hungry mouths to feed
And other earthly care,
Yet he starts singing at the dawn,
And when the sun has gone
He sits beside his nesting mate Z.
And sings an even song. .s
Let us be busy like the bees.
My, how the bees do work.
And yet with all their daily toll
They never shirk nor jerk.
How happily they buzz and fly
From flower unto flowerl
So may we work and store away
Treasure from every hour.
Let us be useful like the trees
The apple. peach and pear
Blossom so sweetly in the spring.
What luscious fruit they bear!
Thus life is meant to bear good fruit,
And we should fill our sphere
That others, seeing our good works,
May glorify God here.
Let us be harmless as the rose
And other lovely flowers
That shine like stars upon the earth
And glorify its bowers.
The lily speaks of purity
So may our souls be white
And later bloom in paradise
In gardens Of delight.

Growing Children
Need Good Bowels
GIVE A MILD LAXATIVE OCCAS- I
IoNALLY TO INSURE REGU-
LAR BOWEL ACTION


AS child grows older it requires
more and more personal attention
from the mother, and as the functions
of the bowels are of the utmost import
ance to health great attention should
be paid to them.
Diet is og great Importance, and the
mother should watch the effect of
certain foods. A food will constipate
one and not another, and so we have
a healthy food like eggs causing bill
BUSINESS to thousands, and whole
some fruit like bananas constipating
many. 1t is also to be considered that
the child is growing, and great changes
are taking place in the young man or
young woman. The system has not
yet settled itself to its later routine.
A very valuable remedy at this
stage. and one which every growing
boy and girl should be given often or
occasionally according to the individu-
al circumstances, is DR.. Caldwells Sy-
rup Pepsin. This is a laxative and
tonic combined, so mild that it is Civ
en- to little babies. and yet equally eff
fective in the most robust constitu-
ton. AT the first sign of a tendency TO
constipation give a small dose of Syr-
up Pepsin at night on retiring and
prompt action will follow in the morn
ing. 1t not only acts on the stomach
and bowels but its tonic properties
