The common symptoms are paleness of the lips, gums and cheeks, shortness of breath and palpitation of the heart after the slightest exertion, dull eyes aad less cf appeMte. Mr. Louis I,. Clark, a painter, of IS Lincoln Place, Plainfield. N. J., says: "Last May I was obliged to undergo an operation for appendicitis and while the operation in itself was successful, I did not recover my strength and health. I was confined to my bed for over a month and was under the doctor's care. "When I'was able to set up my legs were so weak and unsteady that I could only walk with a cane with difficulty. "I was getting no better and could not think of going back to work. I v;as discouraged, when a neighbor told me that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills bad cured her and advised me to try them. I began taking them about the middle of June and soon felt so much letter that I kept on and was cured. ' Dr. Williams Pink Pills have cured rheumatism, chlorosis, after effects of the grip and fevers, and, as the health of the nerves depends upon the purity of the blood, they are invaluable in neuralpla, nervous debility, sleeplessness, dizziness and even locomotor ataxia and paralysis.

Titles of nobility in France have become quite common, though Franc is ostensibly a most democratic republic. But it is shown that of the 45,000 persons there, who use titles of nobility, only 435 families have any moral right to them. A legal rfgbt they have, as under French law, anyone can change his name by carrying out certain rules and forms. Rich Americans, mostly business men, take out permits annually, to the average of sixty, to assume the name of some property they have bought, thoush possession of an estate Is not a necessity. It, however, lends a certain glamor to the name. This false nobility figures largely In society papers, even la London, and the doings of the Cointe de and the Marquis de are read with avidity, though these people are merely purchasers of the Tight so to style themselves.

So farmer makes money in raising inferior horses. Uniformity Mn the size cf eggs can r-st be obtained by kropinjr, one stand ard breed of hens. Good wool Is not produced by sheep that .ire starved and fed alternately. ErenDess of wool depends uron evenness of condition of the sheep. It is not the row that eats the most or the cow that eats the least that Is the lest cow, but the cow that makes the best use of wlmt she does eat. It Us not good policy to force the growth of colts by giving Iheiu stim ulating foods and overfeeding them. The overgrown horse is seldom a durable ere. In studying to increase the number of bushels of grain raised, study also to increase the number of pounds of butter made per cow. The number of pounds ever 120 per year ar: the ones that help your bank account. "Keeping thu Fences Tight" would make a good t?xt for a sermon to many farm congregations. If there Is anything that is aggravating it Is io chase after stock that has broken through fences. Such a thing Is sure to happen when you are the least prepared for it. In scriptural times the Wise Men lived In the East, but that's not true to-day. Farmers of the West are wiser In their day and generation than those In the East they know enough not to deplete the fertility supply in their soils. The greatest no! of the dajry Indus try at present is the care at the farm end. The milk and cream mut bo kept and delivered In good ondition. Ilecauso of the system of grading cream the product must bo of the very best to secure the No. 1 grade price. The farmer now has available a library of 92.000 of books, pamphlets and periodicals relating to agricultural science. At the rate of 5.000 additions during the year, the Department of Agriculture will soon have the most complete collection of this class of literature in the world. Ton for ton, many farmers are findlug that unthrashed oats, cut when the grain is in the rather soft dough (milky) state, and cut fine with a stalk cutter, are better than meadow hay, cut equally fine, to feed cattle, especially milch cows. As a" rule, good farmers raise far more weight of oats to the acre than of hay. According to the results obtained by three years of experience on forty farms in Minnesota, farm labor costs about twelve cents an hour and horse labor about seven and a half cents. A farm laborer can le boarded for $132 a year and a horse kept for about $80. Hay can be produced for one-half and grain for ?.hree-fourth3 of the cost of rais'ng corn. Corn is low in price some years In certain localities. It is possible that next season there may be but half crop, but the excess over that required for consumption may bring good prices. Farmers who have too much grain on hand, with prices ruling low, should endeavor to Increase the number of animals on the farm In order to convert the corn into something more salable. One of the best locations for a garden is the strawberry bed that has been abandoned, ns straw lerry beds are usually well manurel and carefully cultivated, while the shading of the soil by the plants conduces to the formation of humus. An excellent plan to treat the bed for a garden Is to apply plenty of well-rotted manure now, If it can be done, and then plow the bed In the spring, working the top soil fine with a harrow and rake. It Is a refghty good policy to qlways have some floating capital on hand. Many men have gone bankrupt in their business operations Just because they didn't have a little eash on band to help them out in a pinch. There is no reason why the farmer, as well as any otLcr business man, shouldn't be thus prepared to tide over a period when receipts run low. There is nothing that makes us more uneasy than to see our reserve fund running low. Plan to have something coming in every month. Dlalnfectnnfa for Cholera. The tar disinfectants should be used daily about the feed troughs. Moors deeping, quarters, etc. No less than a 2 per cent water solution of the disinfectant should be used, and every week. If the weather permits, the hogs should be dipped or sprayed with a 1 per cent solution. The hogs should not be fed on the ground or allowed to drink surface water. A sloppy diet of shorts, bran and corn or oatmeal is lest for the sick and exposed animals. The water and slop must not le left in the troughs for the hogs to wallow in, and in order to lessen the opportunity for infection through the food powdered copjx r sulphate may be dissolved in the slop and drinking water in the proportion of one ounce of the copper sulphate to every ten gallons of water and slop. 11. A. Craig, Indiana Experiment Station. (; I linens Crop In Mlawourl. According to a Missouri Experiment Station bulletin, the cultivation of ginseng for the Chinese market has become an important industry, notwithstanding the fact that it takes five or six years to mature a crop. While the crop is exceptionally valuable, the cultivation of ginseng luis been found to jiossess disadvantages t!.e same as most 'other cultivated crops. It appears that several fungus diseases have broken out In the ginseng plantations, some of which are extremely serious and infectious, large area3 often being destroyed in a single week. However, the particular or

nirclft DevoTir Scale Insect. Fc-w kinds of insects are so tnimif.il to the health and existene0 of fruit trees and other crop plants as the scales, and, owing to their small size and peculiar habits, few are so difficult to cope with. It has been generally supposed that birds lend no assistance in the destruction of scales. This proves to be an error, for the Biological Survey has already found hat more than fifty species of birds eat scale insects. Not only Is this true, but In the case of certain species, as the grosbeak, scales have been ascertained to form a large percentpge of the food. The Onion Taten. Experience with onion raising covering several years leads to the btlief that the most economical as well as the most satisfactory preparation of Isnd for the crop consists in a summer fallowing of the piece of land to lo used the season Itefore one wishes to raise the onion crop. This should consist of successive plowings and disking, which will result in bringing to tha. surface, germinating and killing Just as much of the weed seed in the soil as possible. The decrease In the cost of weeding coupled with the satisfac tion of having the crop in a clean condition will pay for the rental of the land three times over. A fine clover meadow which was remarkably free from weeds last season and the second crop on which was plowed under last September now slrows no end of pigeon grass, which must have lain dormant through last year, the presence of which will very largely increase the cost of weeding. If the piece of land selected for the onion patch is not known to bo reasonably freo from weed seeds the plan of summer fallowing will be lound by far the most satisfactory. The nittht litnd of Corra. Many breeders of dairy cattle have not fully grasped the height and the depth and breadth of their profession. There are too many who think it is simply the reproduction of pedigreed live stock. It is more than that. It is the bringing together in one animal of the capable milk producer and the mother annually of a strong, vigorous calf. Mr. Scribner, a- very successful breeder, says: "In my estimation, a profitable cow Is one that can produce year af r year a maximum yield of butter at a cost that represents a good profit to the owner. She. must also produce one healthy calf each year. This ought to le one of the requisites of the sire which is to head the Herd. See to It that he Is from a productive strain of regular breeders. He will, intensify his weak points, as well n reproduce his good qualities in breed-, ing. He ought to be as nearly perfect. In dairy conformation and dairy makeup as possible. With all the care we may exercise in the mating of our animals, some faulty onei are sure to develop. We must figure on that. If we have looked well to this end, to see that the Ire la right and that the. dams we are to use for foundation are right, we have gone a long way toward developing the profitable cow." Blooded Stock. flCff llorjue. According to the observations of W. Dietrich, of the Illinois Experiment Station, the following suggestions as to the location and construction of hog houses are given: "A hog bouse should be located so that It Is well drained, well lighted, and gives access to pasture, good shade, pure running water and clean mud wallows. "The two principal kinds of hog houses are the Individual houses and the large houses with individual pens. Each has its points of advantage. "For sanitation the building should be constructed so that It is dry, ventilated, free from dust and drafts and so that the direct rays of the sun fail upon the floor of the pens at the time the winter crop of pigs is farrowed. These rayg should also be excluded during the summer. 'The building should le made serviceable by being built so that it can be used every day in the year, and be arranged so that the largest amount of work may be performed with the smallest amount of labor. "For large houses gates and partitions made of wire are best, because they do not obstruct the light and heat rays from the sun, do not hide the pigs from view of the attendant, nor from each other, and do not furnish lodgment for disease germs. "The largo hog house Is operated so that two litters per year are farrowed and grown for market, and so that the pigs are put on the market at the most favorable season." "ew Interest fn Peat. With a rapid stripping of the great forest areas of the nortli nnd west to sunply the enormous lumber trade of the country and a somewhat dower yet Just ns sure consumption f the bird wood and coal supplies of the. central and western States for use as fuel, attention Is now being directed to the vast yet untouched deposits of p-Mt to be found In the north central Sl.ites. According to the State Geologien! Survey, northern Iowa and southern Minnesota alcne contain in the neighborhood of 2.".000,000 tons of peat, much of it, due to drier seasons and drainage systems, being In :i partially dry condition. The deposit of peat wlii- h is nothing but the accumulation of the decayed vegetable matter of generations past, covers hundreds of acres :i::d varies from four to ten feet In thickness. Plans are already on foot for the establishment of plants wWch will press and dry the peat and put It on the market. Those who have tested tho fuel qualities of peat state that it is superior to the best hard wood and is surpassed by coal only in the respect that it contains somewhat more carbon. Peat is far suj'erlor to coal hi that It contains no sulphur, makes little smoke and no soot or clinkers. It makes a fine white ash, giving a fire that is very hot or mild, ns occasion require. Provided It can be put In convenient shape and placed on the market at a reasonable price, which seems entirely likely, the demand for this new fuel is bound to be enormous.

A case which has recently been de cided in the French courts Is that of M. Laurencon, who at the time of tb last general election was running for office In the Briancon district For the purpose of the campaign he hired a motor car to take him about, but encountered no little difficulty in his travels owing to the hilly nature of the roads and the frequency with which the machine was put out of busi ness. After the result of the issue was made known and his defeat published M. Iaurencon promptly brought suit against the company from which he had hired the machine, claiming that but for its inefficiency he would have been successful. The numerous breakdowns had pre vented hira from visiting all of hi? electors, in other words, and he argued that the fault lay entirely with the machine and with its management.

At one time, when De Qulncey was living at Lasswade In simple and friendly relations with the people, who respected him not as a writer, but ns a good neighbor, he formed a very delightful friendship with a little child, a boy of four years. This lad, a nephew of one of the housemaids, was the constant companion of the great man and would forsake any amusement for the pleasure of walking round a dull little garden with him. One day somebody heard this conversation between the two comrades : "What d'ye call thon tree?" asked the child. De Qulncey considered and then said, with careful deliberation, "I m not sure, my dear, but I think It may be a laurustinus." The child Interrupted him with some scorn: "A laurustinus! Lad, d'ye no ken ft rhododendron?" At that time the "lad" must have been about seventy years old. 9 i DREADED TO EAT. A Qnnker Conple'n Emperlence. How many persons dread to eat their meals, although actually hungry nearly all the time! Nature never intended this should be so, for we are given n thing called appetite that should guide us as to what the system needs at any time and can digest. But we get in a hurry, swallow our food very much as we shovel coal into the furnace, and our sense of appetite becomes unnatural and perverted. Then we eat the wrong kind of food or eat too much, and there you are: indigestion and its accompanying miseries. A Phil, lady said, the other day: "My husband and I have been sick and nervous for fifteen or twenty years from drinking coffee feverish, indigestion, totally unfit, a good part of the time, for work or pleasure. We actually dreaded to eat our meals. "We tried doctors and patent medicines that counted up into hundreds of dollars, with little if any benefit. "Accidentally, a small package of Tostum came into my hands. I made some according to directions, with surprising results. We both liked it and have not used any coffee since. "The dull feeling after meals has left us and we feel better every way. We are so well satisfied with Postum that we recommend it to our friends who have been made sick and nervous and miserable by coffee." Xatne glvei by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Why ITe Didn't Cef the Torlr.. A representative In Congress from the west Is fond of telling of his early career as a school teacher in the rural districts of Missouri. At that time it was the custom of the country folk to "work out" their taxes by "boarding the teacher," which meant that from time to time he was supplied from various quarters with food. One day a boy named Tim Moorhead breathlessly sought the teacher, exclaiming: "Say, teacher, my pa wants to know If you like pork?" "Indeed I do. Tim." was the reply. "Say to your father that there is nothing in the way of meat that I like better than pork." Some time transpired, and there was no pork from Tim's father, a fact that in no way surprised the teacher, for the old man was known throughout the country as a "tight proposition." Nevertheless one afternoon the teacher took the boy aside and asked: "ITow about that pork. Tim, that your father promised me?" Oh," answered Tim, "the pig got

well." IllnKlnjc In the Ran. "It inking" in the ears Is a most peculiar condition. It is Interesting to learn that, though the brain so distinctly receives an impression of sound, there is really no sound at all. The sensation is produced by derangement of the nerves of the ear, caused by poor circulation or such pressure and interference as come from hardened, excessive wax, boils, etc. Some one oddly remarked that when the ears were ringing they were "Insane" Truly, they carry wrong impressions to the brain. They record things that do not happen. BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING. Rash Covered Face and Feet Would Cry Until Tired Out Had "Cradle Cap," Toe Speedy Care by Cuticura. "My baby wns about nine months old when she had rash on her face aad feet. Her feet seemed to irritate hr most, especially nights. . They -would cause her to be broken in her rest, and sometimes she would cry until she was tired out. I had always used Cuticura Soap myself, and had heard of so many cures by the Cuticura Remedies that I thought I would give them a trial. The Improvement was noticeable In a few hours, and before I had used one box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet were well and have never troubled her since. I also used It to remove what Is known an "cradle cap' from her head, and It worked like a charm, as it cleansed and healed the scalp at the same time. Now I keep Cuticura Ointment on hand In case of any little rash or insect bites, as It takes out the Inflammation at once. Perhaps this may bo the means of helping other suffering babies.

Mr. Lafferty had asked the druggist for something to kill moths, and the druggist, says a writer in the Chicago Record-Herald, sold him ten cents' worth of moth balls. The next day Mr. Lafferty returned, and, holding out the crumbled remains f some of the moth balls, he said: "Are vez the young man that sold thim things to me yistenlay?" "I am.
