HOW FRENCH PEOPLE
CURE STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French,
peasantry, consisting of pure vegetable
oil, and said to possess wonderful merit
in the treatment of stomach, liver and
intestinal troubles, has been introduced
in this country by George H. Mayr, who
for twenty years has been one Of the
leading down town druggists of Che
cago and who himself was cured by its
use. So quick and effective is its action
that a single dose is usually enough to
bring pronounced relief in the most
stubborn cases and many people who
have tried it declare they never heard
of anything to produce such remarkable
results in so short a time. It is known
as Mayrs Wonderful Stomach Remedy
and can now be had at almost any drug
store. 1t is now sold here by
=: Sssrn y siaaas s Ss
druggists everywhere.

Potted plants should be examined

altogetner. Is
Potted plants should be examined
occasionally to see whether or not
the plant requires reporting. This
is done by holding the hands over
the top OF the pot ,inverting plant and
all, tapping the edge of the pot so as
to loosen it, then lifting the pot of.
This cannot be done unless the soil
is moderately moist. II the ball of
earth is completely covered with
roots, the plant should be put in a
slightly larger pot with new potting
soil "flrmed" about the old ball Of
earth by 'firming" with the fingers.
Then wet thoroughly.
A housewife who desires few
potted plants but does not possess
the regulation flower pots, may pre-
pare tin cans that will be quite sat

made in the bottom of the can and a
piece Of broken crocke'ry or a few
put in the bottom Of the can before
the earth Is added, in order to give
the proper drainage. The stones or
crockery should be also used in the
regulation flower pot.
Hanging Baskets.
Hanging baskets may be used adj

GERANIUMS-H geraniums are
potted SO that the root growth is re-

dry, they NAV be forced to bloom
during the winter. Geraniums are at

should not be placed in a window
box with the expectation that they
will bear flowers.
FBRNS-Ferns as they, come from
the florist prepared for indoor cul-
ture should be placed in a strong
light, though they grow well without
sunlight They should be watered spar
ingly but should be kept moist at all
times. Improper watering, especially
keeping the plant soaked or permit

of most fern difficulties It is espec-

.POTTED PLANTS
KEPT IN LIVING
ROOM IN WINTER
BY Many Flower Lovers, Who
Have Not Time to Bother
with Indoor Box.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. rs
Many lovers Of flowers who have not
the time to bother with an indoor
window-box. enjoy keeping a num-
Der Of potted plants in the living
room during the winter. Some. in
fact, have turned bay window into
small conservatory or winter gar
den merely by an attractive arrange
ment Of plants In separate pots.
When window box is filled. thu
plants must be Of the same general
character to be successful. but II
ones winter garden is made up of
plants in separate pots greater va
rtety may be kept, as each plant may
receive different treatment in the
matter of light. watering, soil, ETC.,
and palms, rubber plants and cacti,
which call for special handling, may
be added. Begonias, ivy. smilax and
aspidistra, all good plants for indoor
culture, demand more or less the
same treatment, as was explained in
previous article sent out by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, describing the indoor win
dow-box.
Kind of Soil.
Those who do not have gardens
would do better to get potting soil
OF the nearest florist for their pot
ted plants. Good potting soil may
be prepared at home but 1t usually
takes considerable care and fore
thought. Those willing to take the
trouble may prepare 1t by using one
part good loan and one part sand.
The compost should be COW manure
and good turf rotted together for a
year and turned two or three times
in the interim. Well decomposed
leaf would answer as a par
tial substitute for the compost. One
twentieth part bone meal is good
addition to the mixture. II the loan
is very heavy. containing much clay.
its proportion should be somewhat
diminished. II the loan is light

sand, or in some localities omit it

GROWING CANADA FIELD PEAS
Plant Is Higher in Protein Than Grains
Commonly Grown on Farm
Take Place of Bran.

(By A. c. Army, Minnesota Experiment
Station)
The Canada field pea is a crop that
deserves more attention on many
farms. A ten-year average yield of
Fl bushels Of seed per acre has been
secured on University farm. The
weight per bushel is go pounds. Mixed
in the proper proportion with other
foods, ground peas make a good feed
for live stock.
They are higher in protein content
than the grains commonly grown on
the farm, and can be used in some
mixed feeds to take the place OF bran
For the production of an annual hay
crop, peas and oats mixed at the rate
Of two bushels of peas and one bushel
of oats and drilled early in spring give
good results. From one and a half to
three and half tons Of hay can be
secured. Oat and pea hay can be fed
to advantage to all classes of farm
animals.
Oats and peas drilled early in spring
at the same rate as recommended for
hay, make an excellent hog pasture
crop, ready for use about July l. Twen.
ty bushels Of white Canada field peas
produced in 1913 are on hand at Uni
versity farm. They can be procured
for use as seed at $3.50 per bushel.

MOSQUITO HAD ITS INNING
Died In the End, but It Had Consider
able Fun With President of
tho Lodge.

What nuisance little mosquito
can make itself. A local man tells
me that when he had occasion to pre-.
side at lodge meeting he found this
out.
1t was one Of those soft, muggy
nights when the face is moist and the
mosquitoes II there be any about de.
light to poster one. The man had hard
ly taken his place as presiding officer
when the mosquito made its appear
ance, singing its war song and look.
Ing for blood. 1t made first attack
behind the ear. just as our friend
was making some important announce
ment.
Just as the mosquito penetrated the
skin the mans hands were busy, and
before he could shift the document he
was reading to his other hand the in.
sect had escaped. In the shifting, how.
ever, and in the mans haste to get to
the mosquito, he dropped the loose
sheets of paper and the gentle breeze
that had been cooling his heated brow
very generously distributed them
among those present.
The sheets were finally reassembled,
however, and the business proceeded.
But the mosquito was still present, or
another one to take his place. This
time a more direct attack was made
on the cheek The man made a des.
perate effort to get at his enemy. but
the mosquito lodged, and in doing
SO, went in beneath the mans eye
glasses. The man continued his Of.
fensiye operations, but with hardly
due care, for he knocked off his
glasses, which, fortunately, fell into
his lap and were not broken. The
mosquito escaped.
But revenge came at last. Not con
tented with his feast, and utterly dis
dainful of his pursuers ability to ac
complish his destruction, the mosquito
returned and tried to penetrate in the
mans neck. The man let him get
well settled, and then, with a re
sounding slap, settled his destiny. That
mosquito, at least. will never bother
any one else, but he caused enough
disturbance for so small an insect

Rich Fortunes From PrIvateerIna.

A century ago such situation as
the present would have set merchants
all agog TO secure letters OF marque
for their vessels. II was n license
from the crown authorizing n private
ship to wage war against and to cap.
ture any OF the enemy's vessels. In
those days OF wooden walls a well.
armed clipper or Cast lndiaman was
almost a match for frigate, but the
aim OF the privateer was to ravage
the enemys commerce. A lucrative
pursuit II was. too. In one year Capt.
Fortupatus Wright captured 16 ships
worth 100000 pounds. while from one
cruise in the Spanish main the priva-
teer Prince Frederick returned to
Bristol with three-quarters OF million
pounds In bar silver alone and other
valuable cargo.
