Backacbe is the primary cause of kidney
trouble. When the back aches or becomes
weak it is a warning that the kidueys are
liable to beoomo affected.
'Teed the warning; check the Backache
and dispose of any chances of further
trouble,.
If you don't, serious complications are
very apt to arise and the first thing you
know you will have Dropsy, Diabetes or
Bright's Disease, the three most deadly
forms of Kidney Trouble.
Mr. James Bryant, Arichat, N.S., was
troubled with his back and used Doan's
Kidney Pills, he writes:-" I cannot say
too much about the benefit I received after
using three boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills.
I was ;;r. -,fitly troubled with an aching pain
across Ito small of my back. I could not
go to work and my back was eo weak I
would brave to sit down. It would go away
for a few days but would always return.
I yeas advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills
and I must say they completely cured me."
Price 50 cents per box or 3 boxes for
$1.25 at all dealers or mailed direct on
receipt of price by The Doan Sidney Pill
Co., Toronto, Ont.
SANITATION IN THE HOME.
Handkerchiefs used in oases of gold,
oatarrh, or throat or lung troubles
should be washed by themeelves, sub-
jecting them to a disinfecting process.
Taey should not be washed with other
clothing until this is done. Alt white
olotbes should be boiled, it only as a
sanitary measnre, to kill germs and
disinfect, A high degree of heat is ne-
ot scary, and merely scalding will not
do, All clothing worn next the skin
a'aould be boiled, or put through a die -
infecting process, whether the wearer is
diaased a: not. Many infections
diseases are agreed through the meioses
nese of those handling soiled clothing.
There ars so many harmless diainfeot-
ants, which cau be used with even
conned clothing, that this should not be
neglected. Every chili should have its
own handkerchief, towel and rag, as
well as tooth brushes, comb, and other
toilet belongings. Soiled clothing should
not be 'kept in the sleeping rooms of the
house, and everything worn next the
body, whether garments or bed clothing,
should be well aired and sunned fre-
quently. Water standing in the bed-
room pitcher'over night should not be
used for drinking purposes, but if water
must be kept at the bedside, cover is
closely. Do not allow bedroom slops of
any kind to stand in the bedrooms;
empty, scald, and wash everything used.
Da not make up the beds too early in
the day. Sun the bedding as often as
possible, and all coverings should be left
in the fresh air and sunshine, if only
between windows or doors, for at least
an hour or two, every morning, if the
"bedroom smell" is not wanted. Burn
all sweepings of the bedroom, or the
living room. Especially, and it a safe
way to dispose of all dust and litter
gathered about the premises. Let in as
much fresh sir as you think yon can
stand.

THE POULTRY YARD.
Droppings should be cleared from
the houses twice a week, and insect
powder dusted over the perches and
into the crevices. Kerosene is good for
this purpose, also.
The original cost of the flock rep-
resents about a" the; cash outlay, with
the exception, of course, of the poultry
building and accessories, which need
not be expensive, and the addition of a
new breeding male every alternate sea-
son. -
With a fair-sized fl lok of poultry the
farmer can convert a great amount of
waste material about his farm into
money -in the shape of eggs and ohiok-
ene. With intelligent management
poultry ought to be all -the -year revenue
producers, with the exception, perhaps,
of the moulting season.
Salt in small quantities, is beneficial
to poultry, but it should be mixed in the
feed. Large amounts are apt to cause
serious illness or result fatally. From
half a dram to a dram of salt is fatal to
the average adult chicken. This quanti-
ty will cause loss of appetite, great
thirst, inflammation of the membran-
eous lining of the month and throat,
and diarrhoea; if the fowl be opened
after death the intestines will be found
in a condition resembling somewhat,
that reaniting from arsenical poisoning.
Sickness among fowl is often caused
by the absence of sufficient grit or
grinding material.
Chickens seldom get sick without a
local cause, Find out what it is and
guard against it in future.
In time of hatching, remember that
good food, pure water, and freedom
from line will insure fertile eggs.
Sunflower seed and millet are hath
good for ohickens, especially during the
moulting period.
The benefit derived from making
one's flock better is far greater than
the expense incurred.

DON'T WORRY!
A Deal in Diamonds.
From Harper's Weekly.
The recent Sievier case in London
revived some incidents in the career
ot that dead celebrity Barney Barnato,
amateur actor and diamond expert,
againat whom, smart although of
course he was, the following yarn is
told:
When the late Cecil Rhodes was at
the head of the De Beers Company, at
a time when they had for sale 220,000
carats of diamonds, he was approached
by Barney Barnette with an offer for
the lot in one parcel. To this propo-
sal Mr, Rhodes replied, "Yes, yon shall
have them for that on one condition."
"What condition?" asked the other.
"That you let me eee a sight no hu-
man eye ever saw yet."
"What's that?" inquired the would-
be purchaser.
"Why," said Mr. Rhodes, "a bnoket
of diamonds in one heap."
"Done," oried Barney, overjoyed to
close the deal on his whole terms.
So they emptied the De Basra dia-
monds into a bucket. Then Dame the

had to himself the diamond market

person?
Which is the more contemptible, to
"steal the hearts" of men, or to steal
their money?
What ie the difference between the
sin of Absalom, and that of the men,
and the newspapers that are oonetantly
speaking evil of those in authority,
so that they may be turned oat. and
that the grawblere and their friends
may occupy their positions?

Is rebellion against properly con-
stituted authority ever justifiable,
and if so under what circum-
stances? (This question . mast; be
answered in writing by members of
the club.)
Verses 13.18 -To what extent was
David responsible for the oharaoter of
Absalom?
When our interests, or our family or
our oharaoter Is attacked, should we
ignore the enemy, or run from him, or
fade him in the open?
Did David ehow wisdom or courage,
in fleeing from Jeruealem, and is it
likely he would have anted in this way,
1f the revolt had been headed by a
stranger?
Verses 19.22 -David's favorite son
was in rebellion against him, and this
stranger, Ittai, was David's true friend;
is or is not this a suggestion of a fact,
that parents generally get more real
help from etraugera than from their
grown-up children?
Verse 23 -What Leeson may we learn
from the fact, that David lost his .cour-
age and the people wept?
May we ever expect to win in any
battle when',oar hearts are filled with

EGG FIENDS.
The old bay horse snaps up Biddy's
eggs in the manger. Easiest way to
catch Mr. Skunk is to set the steel trap
with an egg. Crows love hen fruit.
Eggs are popular. We can't blame
Chickens for eating them. They know'
a good thing when they lay it. But,
naturally, the egg is sacred to the hen
unless she has the habit, and she gen-
erally handles them with care.
Yes; it's exasperating to lose eggs, to
find the telltale yellow on nest eggs
and feathers of hens anda lin ster them
for
roosters, too, love eggs,
eta
also an egg is sacred as is the hen lay-
ing in her sanctum sanetorum. Acci-
dental breakage and consequent egg
eating may generally be traced to care-
less poultrymen.
The causes are soft and thin shell
eggs from lack of grit; nests that are
too high, small, public, open on top:
too many hens laying in one nest, and
lack of beef scrap.
This is the whole trouble in
cracked eggshell, and all can be rem-
edied.
One advocates placing eggs stuffed.
with soft soap before the hens. Good
way to clean 'em out. Another tells us'
to take all castoff eggs and shells front
the incubator and feed them to the
hens until they get a surfeit. He must
have poor hatching eggs. But all peo-
ple don't run incubators, and where
are these rejected eggs to come from
in the winter? We take those castoff
eggs minus the shell and mix then
in soft feed, and our hens always
cackle for more.
We never had egg fiends. If we
had one, we would file the point of
her beak until it was sore. If that
didn't stop her, we would file off her
tail behind her ears. You may lay a
dozen eggs down on our scratching
floor. Our hens will look at them and
us as if to say, "Keep off the eggs"'
Then a bright eyed Biddy will get
down and cuddle them under her as
if afraid our big feet will crush the
beautiful white globes.

FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS.
When you are shipping live fowls
feed them only solid grains and plea
ty of water before shipment.
Cash in the wallet is better than
chickens in the coop. Waiting for high
prices this time of year is like hunting
for gold mines in the moon.
The habit of throwing the entrails
of chickens to the poultry is to be con-
demned. The crop need not be full
of feed if the bird is made to fast be-
fore killing.
The York county (Pa.) people rather
had the laugh on the Washington au-
thorities when they sent out the news
that eggs could be preserved for an
indefinite time by simply greasing
them with lard. That method has been •
used in York for seventy-five years.
Red tape makes Washington a back
number.
Some people feed their stock any-
thing. A man skinned a dead horse,
sold the hide and hung the quarters
in his barn to grind for the chickens
as needed. Another went to the fer-
tilizer factory and secured the dried,
ground, diseased horse for his chickens
and sold the eggs to his neighbors.
He professed to be a Christian too.
The boys who are raising show birds
are now working out their problems
and putting the best foOt forward.
Those who were naughty last year
and used other boys' birds to wilt
:should read the articies against the
practice in the journals and reform be-'
fore they are canght and get it in the
neck.
When one of our New York duces
specialists, who hatches 30,000 a year,;
told a Canadian poultry convention,
that he gets up every morning at Zi
o'clock and makes a round of his duck:
brooders they all woke up and took
notice. That's for you, old lazybones.,
Wake up! -
In a recent fire in Camden, N. J., e
tenant rushed into the flames to res-
cue a hen that was sitting on Rock;
eggs. While a rescuing party was get-'
ting ready to rescue hien the hers%
emerged with the hen under his arm!
and his pockets full of eggs. Ten ofa
the eggs hatched. Wonder they didn.'ti
get overheated.
The word is pronounced tn-luz (u alt
In fend), not two4onse. There's not It
louse on a Toulouse.
The ponftryrnan who is too lazy to
busy dead fowls, but shoes them to
ria in the sun to breed maggots, t%
breed limbernteek, should keep a fecal
turkey -buzzards eirotmd to dean up the!
carrion. $e might pass them off onl
