THE RABBIT BROTHERS.
REVENGE
Part l..

Bobby and Pete Rabbit had suf-
fered great deal one summer from
having Young Reddy Fox chase them,
and almost catch them, too, moro than
once. And they had come to the con-
clusion that if they did not catch Reddy
Fox he certainly would catch them,
and that would be the end OF the Rabbit
brothers, at least those particular
rabbits.
Near the place where Bobby and
Pete made their home WAS a pasture
in which were rocks and bushes and
.hrubby stuff, the very place for the
Rabbit brothers to catch Reddy Fox.

RECIPE TO CLEAR

Pimples Are Impurities Seek

Skin Pores.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins. poisons and impuri-
ties which are generated In the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment to sustain
the body.
It is the function OF the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form of urine, but
In many instances the bowels create
more toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate. then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next bast
means Of getting rid OF these impuri-
ties which often break out all over the
skin in the form Of plmples.
The surest way TO clear the skin OF
these eruptionss says noted authori
ty, is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces Of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful In a glass of hot water
each morning before breakfast for
one week. This will prevent the for
nation Of toxins in the bowels II
also stimulates the kidneys to normal
activity, thus coaxing them to filter
the blood OF impurities and clearing
the skin OF pimples.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive, harmless
and Is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
Here you have a pleasant, efferves
cent drink which usually makes pim-
pies disappear; cleanses the blood anG

Milford. Feb 16.-At Milford Grange.
Saturday 1t was brought out that the
vaccination OF poultry. by raisers in
this section had not proved ruccessful,
from the fact that those who tried

too late In the season. Using the ap-
preparation OF tho Delaware legisa-
fure for experimental purposes the
poultry raisers around Milford have
been vaccinating their flocks for pox
and roupe. but II has not largely been
success as 1t caused many fowls TO
stop laying.
At tho meeting OF the Grange 1t
was brought out that the hens should
be innoculatcd early In tho fall. or

pected. The growers pledged them
