If they will go to the James Sana- torium and take the doctors advice in all things, at the end of the treatment they will go home well and happy. as I did, and be pleasure to friends, relatives and self. I will soon be 69 years old, and feel better than have felt in twenty three years. When I entered your insti. tution was using 225 grains pulverized opium a day, but now thanks to your wonderful treatment I am entirely free of It's use. During the treatment I suf. fered no pain, slept well, enjoyed a good appetite and since leaving there I have had no desire for the drug.

Green Food for Chickens.

Are your chickens backward, small
and slow to develop? Often the growth
of chickens is greatly handicapped by
the lack of green food and exercise. This
is usually the case when they must be
confined in small yards In order to pro-
tect them from crows or hawks, or to
save neighbours garden. The small in
closure is soon stripped of green grass
and the sod becomes packed and filthy.
Even though some green stuff is thrown
in, the chickens seldom get enough Of 1t,
go they gorge themselves with grain and
then stand around in a dumpish manner
failing to take sufficient exercise for
proper digestion and healthy develop
ment.
A few moments attention this fall will
help make ideal conditions for next sea-
sons chickens. Rye planted in the yards

Than There Was a sha ksup.

Some years ago the Italian minister
Of foreign affairs, SignOr Prinetti, ask
ed his majesty King Victor Emmanuel
to sign q decree for the augmentation
Of the staff Of the foreign office. The
king promised to think the matter over
and the next morning set out alone on
foot to pay visit to the office. Arriv-
ing at 0 o'clock, he found no one there.
A long search unearthed solitary
clerk who was smoking cigarettes.
"What are the hours Of this officer
asked the king.
From 8 to r." was the reply.
"And when may expect to see your
colleagues
"They generally turn up about H."
Every well. When your chief comes
tell him the king has been here"
And then his majesty sent for Signor
Prinetti and suggested that instead OF
asking for more clerks he should make
It his business to see that those already
on the staff attended to their duties.
