INTERESTING CITY OF CHINA
Urpa, in the North, Chiefly Celebrated
for the Number of Its Pictur-
esque "Holy Men,"

One of the least-known cities Of
China is Urga, where sand, squalor and
holy men are the predominating fea-
lures. Yet the place Is not without
interest. Urga lies at the edge of
desert in North China, and It's people
are most un-Chinese in appearance. 1t
is said that every third man met there
Is q lama. The chief lama In Urga
Is as great a parsonage in the North
as the Dalai lama half century ago.
Thousands upon thosands Of lesser
lamas adore him and tens of thou
sands of the populace in their turn
adore lesser lamas. There is also a
college for the study Of religion in
Urga, so that holy men In all stages
of holiness are present in great num-
bers. There are frequent festivals,
with great spinning of prayer wheels
and making of offerings and ceremo-

robes and masks. The populace is

THICK, GLOSSY HAIR
FREE FROM DANDRUFF
GirlsI Try 1t! Hair gets soft, fluffy and
beautifuI-Get IS cent bottle
of Danderine.

If you care for heavy hair that glis-
tens with beauty and is radiant with
life; has an Incompatible softness and
is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides it imme-
diately diss0lves every particle of
dandruff. You can not have nice
heavy, healthy hair If you have
dandruff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of its lustre, its strength and
its very life, and if not overcome it
produces a feverishness and itching of
the scalp; the hair roots famish,
loosen and die; then the hair falls out
fast. Surely get 25-cent bottle Of
Knowlton's Danderine from any drug
store and just try it.--Adv.

Food Shelf.
FEEDING AND FOOD SHELTERS.

Birds may be attracted about the
homestead by furnishing them with an
abundance of food. 1t is important to
note that an ample supply of food
prior to and during the nesting season
tends to increase the number of eggs
laid and also the number of broods
In a season. Bird food may be sup
piled in two ways-by planting trees,
shrubs and herbs which produce seeds
or fruits relished by birds, and by ex-
posing food in artificial devices. The
most familiar phase of the latter
method is winter feeding.
Artificial Food Supply.
During the season when the natural
food supply is at its lowest ebb birds
respond most readily to our hospital
ity. Winter feeding has become very
popular. and the result has been to
bring about better understanding be-
tween birds and humankind.

clude suet or other fat, pork rinds,

WARTS MAY BE TROUBLESOME
They May Be Entirely Removed by
smearing Them ThickIy With IN
adulterated Olive Oil.

Warts on the teats are often trouble
some in milking, besides adding to the
danger of increasing the possibility of
communicating the milk through infec-
tious material which may be found on
them. They may be greatly benefited
or entirely removed by smearing them
thickly with pure olive oil.
If they are large, and still persist
despite this treatment, they may be
cut off with a sharp pair of scissors,
and the spot touched with u stick Of
caustic potash.
They may be oiled now, and the
caustic potash treatment repeated as
often as necessary to prevent their re-
newed growth.

Caring for a Monkey Mascot.

The newest addition to the Berlin

The monkey originally was the mas

He made trip after trip with the U-35

Poor cows are never clean.
No dairy was ever too clean.
The cows should have a chance to go
to shelter now when they naturally
seek it.
A thorough chilling now will dis
qualify herd for profit during the
whole winter.
The breeding bull always represents
half the value of the breeding power
of the herd if it is desired to grow
calves for the dairy.
Calves intended for the dairy should
not be made fat as veals, and they
should not be allowed to become stunt
ed. They should be thrifty and grow
ing all the time.
A good price for a superior bull is
money we'll invested. The difference
between the price of a strictly high
class sire and an inferior one Is made
up in the first lot of calves.
1t is hard to make some men realize
the great influence Of good, pure
bred sire in a herd. The sire is more
than half the herd. If he is richly
bred, every heifer inherits from Lin
good butter traits.

SWEDES REPUD|ATE

REALIZE GRAVITY OF SITUATION
AND WILL DO EVERYTHING POS

Declaration Made That Had Swedish

Stockholm, Sweden.-Re Realizing the
seriousness of the situation created by
the recent disclosures at Washington
regarding the transmission of German
dispatches, Sweden expects to take all
steps possible TO put matters right,
Foreign Minister Lindman declared
Saturday during AN informal talk
All transmission Of German dispatch
es had been stopped, he said, and Ger
many had been asked for an explana-
ton of the abuse of the privilege for

In the course of his discussion of
the affair, Admiral Lindman brought
out the following points:
Affair Taken Seriously.
First-That the Swedish government
was not, as alleged I'm certain quar-
ters, taking the affair lightly, but on
the contrary, realized fully the serious
aspect Of the situation and intended to
do everything possible to settle the
problem.
SecOnd-That transmission of dis
patches on behalf Of Germany had
been stopped absolutely from the mo-
ment when the disclosures were
brought to the foreign minister's at
tention, ana would under no circum-
stances be resumed
Third-That had the Swedish gov
eminent had the slightest idea of the
nature of the dispatches which the
German government was transmitting,
the messages would not have been
transmitted.
Fourth-That strong representa-
tons had been addressed to the Ger
man government on the abuse made
of this practice, accompanied by re-
quest for explanation, to which, how
ever, no reply had yet been received.
Determined to Stop Abuse
Admiral Lrndman, during the entire
seemed imbued with the
desire to see the situation cleared up
fully and completely on basis salts

den and in a way to permit the con-
tiduance of the most friendly, cordial |
relations with the American govern |

LIFT YOUR C0RNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
How to loosen a tender corn
or caIIus so it lifts out
without pain.

Let folks step on your feet hereafter
wear shoes a size smaller if you like,
for corns will never again send electric
sparks of pain through you, according
to this Cincinnati authority.
He says that a few drops of a drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn, instantly re-
lieves soreness, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or callus without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
A small bottle of freezone obtained
at any drug store will cost very little
but will positively remove every hard
or soft corn or callus from ones feet.
If your druggist hasn't stocked this
new drug yet, tell him to get a small
bottle of freezone for you from his
drug house.-adv.
