A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE Medicine Not Needed in This Case.
Did you fall, MT, D.

It is hard to convince some people that coffee does them an injury! They lay their bad feelings to almost every cause but the true and unsuspected one
 But the doctor knows. His wide ex- perienee has proven to him that, to some systems, coffee is an insidious poison that undermines the health. Ask him if coffee is a cause of con stipation, stomach and nervous trou- bles.
 T have been a coffee drinker all my life, and when taken sick two years ago with nervous prostration, the doc tor said that my nervous system was broken down and that would have to give up coffee.
 T got so weak and shaky I could not work, and reading an advertise ment of Postum l asked my grocer if he had any of it. He said, Yes, and that he used it in his family and it was all it claimed to be.
 So l quit coffee and commenced to use Postum steadily, and in about two weeks I could sleep better and get up in the morning feeling fresh. In about two months l began to gam flesh. weighed only 146 pounds when l com meneed on Postum and now 1 weigh 167 and feel better than l did at 20 years of age.
 T am working every day and sleep we'll at night. My two children were coffee drinkers. but they have not drank any since Postum came into the house, and are far more healthy than they were before" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

Many now realize the fact that the growing of pasture grasses and for age crops that make healthy. vigor- ous hogs of good quality is the basic factor in successful pork production They are raising hogs at big profit.
 Of course those who are successful realize the fact that certain amount of grain feed is needed to grow hogs with a greater profit but they use this grain only as supplement to the feeds harvested by the hogs in the pastures and fields.

England has automatically settled all controversy with this country over her orders in council' by declaring cotton absolute contraband.

 Good stable management is an i'm portant factor in determining the profits from the dairy herd during the winter. The first essential is that the cows be comfortable, because COW kept otherwise can never do her best.
 She must have a comfortable place to lie down, stand up, move and stretch her limbs and lick herself all over the body. She must have sunshine and plenty of light She must have pure air to breathe, and this means that the stable must be provided with some system of ventilation to give a frequent change of air.
 This need not be expensive, only a worth of material and labor She must have good pure water at least twice day or better still. have all automatic water basin at her side.
 The stable should be cleaned daily, and be thoroughly disinfected. The ceiling, floor and sides should be all smooth, and of concrete construction, and the fixtures largely iron. It is not expensive, and they are sanitary and permanent.
 Large, smooth, concrete managers for feeding are about the best we know of today. Judgment and com mon sense must be exercised in the methods of feeding and handling the cows. Fixed rules in feeding are not practical.
 Overfeeding is wasteful; underfeed- ing is unprofitable. The cows must be we'll nourished at all times. but if given more than they need for main tenance and production. they waste it. as a rule.
 The quality of milk-that is. the amount of milk and fat that it con- tains-is controlled more by the con stitutional characteristic of the COW than by the feed.
 Never stir up dust or foul odors at milking time. If you do. lot of it is sure to get into the milk.
 Whether to feed the cows just be- fore milking is much debated ques. tion. It is not at all dangerous to feed them a little grain. provided you stir up no dust or disagreeable odors.
 As a rule, the cows will give down their milk more freely when they have contented minds. and little of the

Water-GIass Eous.

Water-glass eggs are practically as good as fresh eggs for bost cooking purposes. If it is desired to boil them prick a small hole through the large end of the shell before placing them into the water. The pores of the shell have been sealed with the water-glass solution and without ttis pinhole the expanding air within the shell would burst it.

letter from the secretary of the Won-

the United States, requesting her to
become d member of the league and
to serve on the state committee at the
conference at the Willard hotel in
Washington, D. G.
From reports of the purposes of the
league that have been received here,
it seems to be a plan to interest the
women of America in an armament
and colossal national defense scheme.
American women, it seems, have not
been looking with any great favor on
the proposed increase in this coun-
try'S war machinery, and Kansas
women in particular have been doing
their own thinking for some years,
and they are trained to look for the
catch when they are invited to join
an organization that means encOur-
agement to a scheme for laying hands
on immense quantities of public funds
to be spent on war enginery that is
out of date the day after it is finished,
and which serves as a challenge
rather than a protection. Hence, Mrs.
Allen, in common with some other
Kansas women, has declined the hon
or of a membership in the Womal'S
Branch of the Navy League, and with
it an invitation to attend a reception
to be given by the women of the
league in Washington.

A Simple Way To
Remove Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, ordi-
nary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find. too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be Hurry,
Iustrous. glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This sim
pie remedy has never teen known to
fail-AdVertiSe ment
