In the American Magazine, Thomas
Kane, a Chicago business man, tells
how he regained his health after a
nervous breakdown when he was AS.
He says:
Just three things are absolute ne
cessities for the smooth-running and
longevity of these human machines of
ours: They are pure air. pure water,
and plain food. Food alone has n
price. Both air and water are Gods
free gifts. And vet no one person in
ten thousand breathes enough pure
air: not one in thousand drinks
enough pure water. and nearly all OF
us eat too much"

YOUNG CA7TLEMAKE
TIL. The ! CHEAPEST Il: GAINS

Many experiments have been con-
Quoted for the purpose of showing the
relative cost Of making gains on steers
Of varying ages, says the Iowa Home
stead. One hundred pounds of gain on
calves were made at the Illinois station
at cost of $4.10, whereas in the case
Of yearlings of the same general type
the cost was $500 per 100 pounds.
Two-year-olds were an even dollar a
hundred higher, the cost in this case
being $500 per 100 pounds. This
means that the cost of making gains
on yearlings was 81 per cent higher
than on calves, while the two-year-olds
made gains at cost Of IS per cent
greater than in the case of yearlings.
The calves in the experiments referred
to weighed in the beginning 1884
pounds, the yearlings 784 and the two
year-olds 1882 pounds.
1t follows from the above that a CIV
en- amount of capital invested in young
stock will produce better returns than
the same sum invested in older cattle
provided that the purchase price per
pound is the same in each case and
also provided that the beefmaking abil-
ity is similar in each class.
It is an easy matter to be misled by
the statement that cheaper gains can
be made on calves than on yearlings
and on yearlings than on two-year-olds
because Of the fact that the possession
Of this knowledge by feeders in gen.
eral has a very material effect upon

A CRISIS.

There is feeling over the entire
country that the parting of the ways
has come up and that definite policy
will have to be adopted by the gov
eminent relative to submarine war
fare
The breaking off of diplomatic re-
lations, it is believed, will not be
enough and will not meet the present
situation. The submarine crisis as
it is at present, in brief, is as fol-
lows:
Liner Persia is reported to have
carried one gun.
p, Hope for safety of American Con-
sui McNeely abandoned.
Surviving officers of Persia say
they saw wake of torpedo.
Persia's death toll is placed at from
$50 to 800.
Another British steamer, the Gar
gyle, bigger than Persia, was sent
to bottom yesterday in Mediterranean.
Japanese steamer Kenyon Maru
was also sunk in the Mediterranean.
Congress reconvened today.
British steamer St. Oswald sunk.
President Wilson cuts honeymoon
"trip short because of threatening ma
ture Of diplomatic situation over sub
marine warfare.
Secretary Lansing instructs Am
bassador Penfeld at Vienna to ask
Austrian government for any infor-
nation it may have as to identity of
submarine that torpedoed Persia.
Austrian Ambassador Zwiedinek
promises Secretary Lansing full re-
paration and satisfaction if it. is
proven that Austrian submarine sank
Persia.

IN NCE
AGAINST Sudden Death.

Before an Insurance Company will
take risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and report
whether you are good risk. When
your kidneys get sluggish and clog,
you suffer from backache, sick-head-
ache, dizzy spells, or the twinges and
pains of lumbago, rheumatism and
govt. The urine is often cloudy, full
of sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three
times night. This is the time you
should consult some physician of wide
experience- as DR.. Pierce of the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10 cents for
sample package of his new discovery,
"Anuric." Write him your symptoms
and send a sample of urine for test.
Experience has taught DR.. Pierce that
vAnuric" is the most powerful agent
in dissolving uric acid, as hot water
melts sugar; besides being absolutely
harmless it is endowed with other
properties, for it preserves the kidneys
in healthy condition by thoroughly
cleansing them. Being so many times
more active than ithia, it clears the
heart valves of any sandy substances
which may clog them and checks the
degeneration Of the blood vessels, az
well as regulating blood pressure.
vAnuric" is regular insurance and
life~saver for all big meat eaters and those
who deposit ime-salts in their joints.
