FRECKLES
Don't Hide Them With Veil; Remove
Them With the Othine Prescription

This prescription for the removal of
freckles was written by a prominent
physician and is usually so successful
in removing freckles and giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold by druggists under guarantee to
refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of othine and re
move them. Even the first few appli-
cations should show wonderful i'm
provement, some of the lighter freck-
les vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this thar
is sold on the money-back guarantee.

GOOD METHOD TO
HATCH DUCK EGGS
Best to Use Chicken-Hens for the
Purpose BE Careful Not to
Overfeed the Fowls.

Ducks eggs may be hatched in in
cubators, but it is better to use large
chicken-hens when possible. If one
wishes to hatch ducklings very early
in the season, then the incubator Is
the only thing that will do the work.
Ducks scarcely ever get broody and
when they do, as rule the season is
far advanced. Besides it is poor pol
Icy to place eggs under duck.
Don't keep duck eggs over a week
after they are laid. The fresher they
are the better they will hatch. After
a duck egg is ten days old it is entirely
worthless so far as Matching is con-
cerned. They should be very carefully
handled, as the albumen is much thin
ner than that of other eggs. This fact,
coupled with the age limit, accounts
for so many poor matches; especially
where the eggs have been shipped.
AS soon as the eggs are laid, If not
placed at once for Matching, they
should be carefully wrapped in paper
and turned every day. They should

neither too high nor too low--about
fifty to sixty-five degrees F. Don't
keep eggs intended for Matching in a
damp cellar.
When ducks are laying their appe-
t,te increases, but one must be care
full not to overfeed. If their food is
not too highly concentrated and there
Is plenty of coarse grit and sand within
reach, there is little danger OF over
feeding. Three or four square meals
a day will not hurt laying duck.
When overfed they lay double-yolked
eggs

however. Buttermilk, skimmilk and
"clabber" are all valuable in duck
feeding, but they should be used only
for moistening the feed and not as a
drink.
