HOW TO MANICURE CANARY
It Is a. Job That Must Be Done, But
Extreme Care Should Always
Be Used

AS canary grows DID, it will be no
ticed that its claws get long and catch
on the perches and wires as it hops
about the cage. In a state of nature
the activity of the bird as it moves
about on the ground or among twigs
and limbs keeps the claws properly
worn down. Confined in a cage, the
birds claws become entirely too long.
1t is necessary, therefore, to trim
them with a pair of sharp scissors ev-
cry few months. 1t is important to
watch the condition of the claws care
fully, as by catching they may cause
broken leg. In each claw slender
blood vessel extends well down toward
the tip. This may be seen on close
examination through the transparent
sheath of the claw. In trimming cut
well beyond this canal and take spe-
cial care not to break the leg while
handling the bird
In cage birds the horny covering of
the bill, as well as the claws, some
times becomes distorted through
growth without sufficient wear. The
tips of the mandibles may be pared
down with a sharp knife, but care
must be taken not to cut deep enough
to reach the quick.

FARMER BEHIND THE TIMES
His Wife Tells How She Has Lived
for Many Years Without Modern
Conveniences.

| In the American Magazine a farm
er's wife tells of some Of her expert
ences. She says:
| my husband does not, or will not,
realize that the world has moved, and
that what were luxuries generation
ago are necessities now. One Of my
children died of typhoid fever, the
germs of which were, no doubt, brought
by flies from the house down the road
where they had the disease; for we
haven't screen door in the house, and
only few cheap adjustable screens.
1--WE sleep on feather beds, because
mattresses cost money, and the feather
beds were in the house-a part of the
furnishings that married, when I took
my husband for better or for worse. We
have chairs with rounds missing, worn
carpets, nicked dishes and cooking
utensils that have long since outlived
their usefulness.
1.-THE house is inconvenient, and for
that reason alone houSewOrk is much
harder than it ought to be, and house
work is hard enough in all conscience
on farm. We have no water in the
house. For 25 years l have fetched
and carried water. There are two
steps between the kitchen and the din.

BETTER THAN CALONEL
Thousands Have Discovered DIR.
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute.

Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi-
tute for calomel - are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the result
of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
His efforts to Danish it brought out these
little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why
cure the liver at the expense Of the teeth?
Calomel sometimes PLAYS havoc with the
gums So do strong liquids. It's best not
to take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, dizziness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
