structed buildings, but it pays to house and feed good breeding stock in a thoroughly scientific manner.
 A few breeding sows, say three or four, may hustle for themselves around the barnyard and make themselves fairly comfortable at night by roofing their way into the haystack, but there is not much profit to a farmer in keep ing three or four sows. A larger num- Der demands different treatment, so that some kind of winter hog house is necessary to raise pigs in paying quantities.
 Theoretically, SOW will farrow sev- ell pigs twice a year. It is easy to figure that each pig will sell for S20 to $50 at POO pounds when it is eight months old. Almost any farmer can realize such figures on one or two lit- ters, even when raised under the old fashioned methods. But no farmer alive can make anything like such sat isfactory profits on large scale un- less he is equipped with the proper facilities for handling the breeding stock in all kinds of weather. Weather Is great factor in the success of the hog business.

Most important is to have a winter pen house where the first filters can be safely farrowed in February and early March; and then repeat in the fall.
 The design illustrated is the special American Builder type of modified saw-tooth as designed for roof win dows. These are placed in such way that the direct rays of the sun shine di- rectly into the nests at farrowing time.
 There are several different makes of these special roof windows-all con- structed on much the same principle. They have galvanized sheet iron frames which carry their own flashing, and so can be easily set in place on the roof and made water tight.
 For the sake of sanitation, saving of feed and the lessening of labor the pen floors and also the outside run yard are constructed of concrete.
 In building a hog house 1t is neces- sary to consider convenience in getting the hogs in and out, to provide means for loading them into wagons and a place for heating water and for feed cooking and mixing. When built on sloping ground, as is generally the case, this plan offers an opportunity to back the wagon up to the rear door for loading and room in the front end away from the pens is arranged for a feed room.
 Provision is made for moving hogs from one pen to another by having cleats in the alley for holding sliding doors.
 Hogs thrive better when animals of the same size are penned together. Some grow faster than others and it Is sometimes desirable to select out one or two from certain pens. That is the time when the alley door will be appre- ciated. Another good thing about this hog house Is the swinging front of the pens which swings back over the trough and prevents interference when putting in the feed. The partitions next to the feed room run to the ceil- ing, but the partitions between the pens are only four feet high.
 This hog house will accommodate about 100 hogs by housing from six to eight in pen, which is thick enough if more are penned together they pile ur and smother each other.
 This hog house contains 16 indi- vidual pens, with an alley through the center.
 It is 24 feet wide and 57 feet long, with two main entrance doors at the ends of the feeding alley. Each pen on the south side of the building has an outside door to connect the inside stalls with the outside exercising pens.
 The foundation is of concrete, and there is a solid concrete floor the full size of the house. This floor is care fully made and given a smooth water proof finish, so it may be kept clean with the least possible expenditure of labor. The concrete wall extends up IS inches above the grade line to pre-.

Within ten minutes after an appIi. cation of Danderine you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at frst-yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately dou- bles the beauty of your hair. No diff ference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten cloth with Dan derine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is amazing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an in- comparable lustre, softness and luxu- riance.
 Get a small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine for few cents at any drug store or toilet counter, 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-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just try little Dan derine.-Adv.

IMMORTAL SPIRIT OF FRANCE
Woman True Type of Gaiiic Charac- ter That Brute Force of Huns
 Could Never Crush.

A tired and dusty doughboy drew up in front of a shell-battered house In Chateau ThierTy and asked Frenchwoman if he could get drink of water.
 sOui, mon garcon" said the woman. "You come right along with me-"
 After the soldier had obtained his drink and was about to depart he re- marked that her house had suffered more or less from the guns.
 "Yes,a was the reply, "I used 1t as dressing station fer the Americans who were wounded here and the Boches seemed to know about it. But it's all right. We will build it up again and everything will be the same.'
 She explained in detail just how she would reaarange the architecture, how the windows would be built larger.
 "We will sRasssse. -to carry lot of rock" she smiled. You see, those are all shot to pieces. But it's not far to the river"
 Then she turned and resumed her task of clearing away the debris that had once been the east wall of her house.-From the Stars and Stripes.

BIRD PUZZLE TO SCIENTISTS
"Hoatzin," DwelIer in the Amazon Val ley, Believed to Be Direct De-
 scendant of Pterodactyi.

The dense tropic jungle of the Ama- zon valley is something more than merely jungle. It is the point where the dim ages of the past meet the present. Many of it's plants and anil malls seem to be at least cousins to those that existed in and before the coal age of the earth.
 One of these "throw-backs" is the hoatzin, the strange bird whose home IS in those almost inaccessible regions Of tangled forest, muddy rivers and daily rainStorms. The hoatzin is not new discovery. It has been known to scientists for long time and has always been somewhat of puzzle. It shows so much of the reptilian in it's makeup especially when young, that the experts are almost convinced that 1t is the direct descendant of the pterodactyl, that giant flying bird reptile that scared over the newborn earth in the days when the caveman was first learning to pit his dawning intellect against the strength and cun- ming of the brute. When grown it shows structural resemblance to sev- eral classes of birds, including the pea fowl and the domestic chicken.
 William Beebe, curator of birds for the New York Geological park and di- rector of the Ornithological society's research station in British Guiana, de- votes chapter in his book, "Jungle Peace" to the hoatzin.

 Sometimes there are serious condi- tions where a hospital operation is the only alternative, but on the other hand 60 many women have been cured by this famous root and herb remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, after doctors have said that an operation was necessary every woman who wants to avoid an operation should give it a fair trial before submitting to such a trying ordeal.
 If complications exist, write to Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co.,, Lynn. Mass, for advice. The result of many years experience is at your service.

 vent the possibility of draft of cold air on the nests. All doors are care fully fitted to shut tight in the winter time.
 Each pen has a concrete feeding trough and a swinging gate opening in- to the center alley. These gates are very convenient when transferring from one pen to another. They are also handy at breeding time, because the presence of the attendant inside of the pens is frequently necessary.
 The construction above the concrete consists of studding, outside boarding, strong building paper and drop siding. So far as the sides are concerned, it is important that the work should be thoroughly well done.
 The shape of the roof is intended to admit all the light and sunshine possi- ble during the farrowing season, which usually varies a few weeks in the diff ferent attitudes. This pitch of roof is intended for the northern sections Of the country.
 Metal ventilators are provided to carry off the foul air, which is a nec- essary precaution, because the health of breeding stock depends greatly upon the supply, of fresh air.
 Improved winter hog houses have helped to eliminate disease and to put the hog business on better paying basis than ever before The fact is now recognized that hogs require as careful handling in winter as other kinds of live stock. Hogs have been known to winter through in poorly-con-
