The Newest Discovery in Chemistry

simply ask for a 50-cent package Of
"Anuric" manufactured by DR.. Pierce.
or even write DR.. Pierce for large
trial package Q0c). II you suspect
kidney or bladder trouble. send him Q
sample Of your water and describe
symptoms. DR.. Pierce's chemist will
examine it, then DR.. Pierce will report
to you without fee or charge.
NOTE. -" Anuric" Is thirty-seven
times more active than lithia In elimi-
mating uric acid, and is harmless but
reliable chemical compound that may
be safely given to children, but should
be used only by grown-ups who actu-
ally wish to restore their kidneys 70
perfect health, by conscientiously
using one box-or more In extrems
cases-as "Anuric" thanks to DR..
Pierce's achievement) is by far the
most perfect kidney and bladder coz
rector obtainable.

ing other peoples. Yet he does not
refuse his wife the privilege OF hous-
ing this wee founding, or that one, for
week or so at time ii she nnds
pleasure in it. A score or more or
such infants may come and go without
awakening any particular interest in
his breast, but there is always one who
will at last touch the golden chord in
his heart Some one wait will seem
to have the intuition, the moment its
eyes meet his, that he has the power
to make its future bed one of roses
if he takes to it and keeps it, or makes
it's future path cruel with thorns if it
is returned to the orphans home, later
on to be cast on the cold world to
battle for life and food as best it can.
That baby makes a direct appeal to
him, COOS with delight, holding out it's
arms to him, refusing to be comforted
If the man turns away. This is flat
tering to his vanity and at the same
time warns his heart. The touch OF
the baby fingers closing around his
own, the weight Of the little head
anxious to nestle against his breast,
touch the hidden spring Of interest and
open wide the door of liking. Baby
will go to no one but him, all it's affec-
ton is for him only.
Despite his protestation that one
youngster is the same as another to
him, slowly, by degrees, he begins to

him that the time for keeping it is
about to expire and renewal refused,
he remarks that it might not be bad
idea, after all, to keep it, even If that
does mean adopting it.
AS the years go on both grow as
fond of it as though it was their own
flesh and blood, but they expect full
measure of love in return. If they have
succeeded in getting child who has
no kith or kin their fond hopes are
realized more often than not. If the
child has nearer and dearer ties they
may be apt to assert themselves most
unpleasantly, much to the worry OF the
foster parents. The mother, in those
earlier years, may have relinquished
all claim to the little one, yet that
cannot and never will change the heart
of the woman responsible for that lit
tie ones being. Her yearning to be
near it, possess it's love, is more than
apt to sweep aside all barriers in her
effort to win it's affection. The foster
parents resent it. Those who are
mothers understand the situation from
mothers viewpoint and sympathize
with her.
If decision is left with the child,
who can blame him for answering to
the call of nature. He loves those who
have housed and loved him with all
his childish nature. but how can he
withstand the mother call, the strong
est heart tie and influence God ever
created. Let those who would adopt
babies reckon not only with the ideal
present, but the future, not forgetting
"'Tis better to have loved and lost,
than never to have loved at all"

jefferson Was a "SIoppy" Dresser.

In dress President Jefferson was
governed by comfort rather than by
elegance. pride costs more than
hunger, thirst and cold" he used to
say, and as he lived in an epoch that
witnessed mighty revolution in mems
clothing as well as in mems govern
ment, monarehy's queues and velvets
giving way to short hair and the USE
full, ungainly pantaloon, only the
watchfulness of his body servant
saved him from unbelievable ana
chronisms of costume. Indeed, in
later life, at Monticello, where this
democrat ruled absolute king, he
often wore the garments of several
different periods together, like super
imposed geologic strata, or the histor-
ic remains in the Roman Forum

This is a recent discovery Of DR..
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N. Y. Experiments at DR.. Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator OF uric
acid that can be compared to it. For
those easily recognized symptoms Of
nfammation-as backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination, as well
as sediment in the urine, or If uric
acid in the blood has caused rheuma-
tism, it is simply wonderful how sure
ly "Anuric" acts. The best Of results are
always obtained in cases Of acute
rheumatism in the joints, In gravel
and govt. and invariably the pains and
stiffness which so frequently and per-
sistently accompany the disease rap
idly disappear.

cowpeas, combined with some nice
corn slower (stover is simply the stalk
without the ear, and may be used
whole or shredded) will make a salts,
factory roughage for feeding young
heifers.
A limited amount of silage may be
fed with satisfaction to sheep-say
about ten pounds per head each day.
But it should be fed in connection with
some dry roughage, such as clover or
alfalfa hay, or even mixed hay and
straw.
In very cold weather, the sheep
should have plenty of clover hay or
corn fodder or such other roughness
as is available on the farm. The ewes
should be kept in good, thrifty con-
dition in order that the offspring may
be healthy and vigorous.

Avoid Digestive Disorders.

The careful herdsman avoids diges-
tive disorders in the calf by feeding
the skim milk warm and using only
clean buckets. Overlooking also helps
to derange the digestive tract and
should be avoided. From the time
that the calf is born until it is well
grown it ehould be provided with a
clean stall This prevents navel i'll
and insures a healthful growth.

ARRANGED MARRIAGES.

True love bond no mortal hand can make
No mortal power can ever break;
What words or vows could never do
No words or vows can make untrue;
And If to other hearts unknown
The dearer and the more our own,
Because too sacred and divine
For other eyes, save thine and mine.
There's quite an,agitation in Europe
over the question of arranging mar
siages with the MANNED and helpless
soldiers and strong healthy women in
the opening bud of health and strength.
Their plea is that because the soldiers
have escaped death they should not be
denied the comforts of home, the JOY
of wife's love and children to care
for them in old age.
The sentiment is tender and appeal
ing. but can a woman let the pity Of
a moment obscure her vision of look
ing into the future? Is duty greater
than pity, or may it not be notch or
two below it? The helpless man has
our deep commiseration. But pity is
a quality which may not last long. 1t
is not true that it always begets love.
/ The young girl entering into woman
hood Graves love. To be welded to
man for whom she has only pity is
sacrifice she should not be encouraged
to make without long and earnest de-
liberation. She must be the one at the
fore, the support of the family. Hard
ships have. in many instances. not
been known to strengthen love. Rather
to lessen it, through discomfort. Mar
riage under such circumstances may
stretch loves elastic chain almost to
the breaking point.
[. The home is one of unhappiness.
Children born OF divided hearts bear
the fruit of unhappiness and are fail
ures. Thus it may be seen that the
girl too young should not marry for
pity only.
On the other hand, the case may as
sumo a different aspect to the single
woman OF mature years. Youth and
early love dreams she has left behind

Farm Brood Mares.

A few good brood mares on the or
binary farm if bred to a good stallion
should produce several good colts
every year besides doing the ordinary
farm work. To secure the best results
the brood mare that does the farm
work must be given the best care and
attention.
