What the Small Man Dreamt.

A member Of the company seated in
a train the other day had been relat-
ing some wonderful stories of dreams
fulfilled. Suddenly he turned on the
diminutive passenger who had smiled
at one of his yarns. you appear to
doubt my word, sir" he remarked.
perhaps you imagine that dreams
have no YalueT
Mine hadn't" murmured the little
man.
Indeed. And what did you dream?'
THAT Il big black dog sprang out
of the passage and took about half a
pound out of the calf of my leg
Strange to say" he continued, 1.-The dog
that actually did bite me was the dog
of my DREAM
There you are, then" calculated
the other man. IF you'd valued the
dream at its proper worth you'd have
been on the lookout for that dog, and
might have escaped. And yet you say
that dreams have no value!"
And l repeat, sir, that mine hadn't,
for. unfortunately, met the dog before
I had the dream,"

THICK, GLOSSY HAIR

Girls! seautify Your Hair! Make 1t
Soft, Fluffy and Luxuriant-Try
the Moist Cloth.

Try as you will, after an application
of Danderine, you cannot find single
trace of dandruff or falling hair and
your scalp will not itch, but what will
please you most, will be after a few
weeks use, when you see new hair,
fine and downy at first-yes-but real
~ new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No differ
ence how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just mOisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is i'm
mediate and amazing-yOur hair will
be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an
appearance of abundance; an incom-
parable luster softness and luxuri-
ance, the beauty and simmer of true
hair health.
Get a % cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store and prove
that your hair is as pretty and soft
as any-that it has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment-that's
all. ADV.

MOTHER! LOOK At
CHILD'S TONGUE
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give "CaIifornia Syrup
of FIGS"

A laxative today saves Sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach
sour.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat
ed, or your child is listlesS, cross, few
erish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children'S ailment, give
teaSpOonful of "CalifOrnia Syrup of
Figs" then don't worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and in a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. A thor
ough inside cleansing is ofttimes all
that is necessary. 1t should be the
first treatment given in any sickness.
Beware Of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of
california Syrup of Figs" which has
full directions for babies children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.

my quarter section Q60 acres). Most
of my stock, harness, implements, etc.,
were bought at sales, all "on time"
necessarily. The buildings on the place
were about as good as nothing and had
either to be rebuilt or replaced entirely.
There were 26 acres broken, and very
badly farmed, bringing poor returns
the first year." After mentioning
number of mischances, he says: I'm
spite of all these drawbacks, have
done well. I consider my farm worth
$500 to $4,000. I have four head of
horses, u Of cattle, over 400 purebred
Buff Orpington chickens and 125 tur-
keys, besides implements, harness, ETC.,
to run my place. I have well ITO
feet deep with an inexhaustible supply
of water. The we'll with pump cost
me $500. I have built q S125 chicken
house and put up nearly $50 worth Of
poultry fencing; have built root cellars
to hold over 5000 bushels Of potatoes
and other vegetables. AS to income, l
raise about ten acres of garden and
roots annually which net from 5000 to
$1,000 total. 1 generally sell from
20 to 40 tons timothy hay which brings
from Sc to S14 per ton. My grain is
most all used on the farm except
few hundred bushels sold to the neigh
bors for seed. My four milk cows bring
in from $50 to $50 each Counting calf
Last year so hens laid 600 dozen eggs
which averaged more than % cents

sold in spring, dressed at 81 each. My
turkeys average $3.50 each in fall. By

cattle, the two-year-old steers bring
$75 each in spring" -Advertisement.
