The farmer who is at will is at all pro. :eh -lent and simple in his mode of life is sure of a good living for himself and his family. Over and above this, he is able to proyide something for a rainy day. This is not true of the men of other callings, that is to say, it is not true* of the rank and file of them. In business some make fortunes, but the many go to the wall at some period of their business career. There is no call- ing in the world which is pursued by the many where the increment of earning is so great if the living of the farmer is considered, and, of; course, it ought to be. NOTES AA"1) COMMENTS. In 1880 Canada exported cheese to the value of $3,900,000 00. In 1894 Cascada exported cheese to the value of $15,500,000.00; an increase in 14 years of nearly 400 per cent. This remarkable developement has been in a very large measure due to the tact and energy of those who have been actively engaged in the manufactur- ing and production of cheese, and largely due to the fact that in the init Girls In Trouble, Rheumatism is caused. by lactic acid Ia., Jxx1. 2,—Harold Iiarold l anclf in the blood.

Mayor Sea"yesterday received a letter from Mrs. Gilmore Smith, of \Vitlgham, Ont., in which she asserts that the two women are daughters' of hers, who disappeared from home over a year ago, and of whom no trace could be found. She charges that Land is an assumed name, and that his real name is Duncan Summers, and that he has a wife and children living in Canada. The chief of police at once investigated the matter, and the two young women eonfessed that the statements in the letter were true. Land was immediate- ly taken into custody.

Get something people want, advertise it, wisely and it is sure to pay. The best advertising will not create a demand for that which is not wanted.

The advice of a bishop to a young preacher applies equally well to au adver- tiser: "Have something to say. Say it. Stop." The men who fail and go down in obliv- ion belong to the class who never adver- tise, advertise occasionally or only as they think their trade will warrant.

Stool Queen victoria greatly dislikes a visitor who is shy and colors or looks agitated when addressed. At the finish of the . in- terview the queen generally bows slightly or offers her hand, and then turns a little to one side to save the very trying neces- sity of au entirely backward exit from her presence. The empress of Austria has her hair shampooed once a month. It is still beau- tiful, luxuriant and perfectly black, and when let down touches the ground, as she stands, and she is tall. It is said the hair wash requires forty eggs, and the other in- gredients are obtained from no less than twenty mysterious bottles. One of the best-known figures in Paris is Rime.

It is not a dangerous thing when it directs your attention to the fact that the As soon as the old hens can beaspared for market they should be fattened and sold. This ought to be clone before the hens begin moulting. Light, nutritious and easily digested food is what confined fowls require to do well, but under no consideration should corn be fed exclusively. If disease appears and obstinately resists remedies, it is better to begin with new stock than to breed from those that have been sick a long time. Mark the pullets that you want to keep as soon as you know which ones they are. Then there will be no danger of their being sold or eaten by mistake. The hens should always have somewhere to dust. It will aid them to rid themselves of lice. If a spoonful of insect powder be added to the dust, all the better. Chickens should not be allowed to go on the roosts until they are ten or twelve weeks old. If allowed to roost too young their growth and appearance will be injured. A small box of charcoal kept where the hens can have access to it will arrest dis- orders of the bowels from overfeeding. Use it freshly burned and break it into reasonably small pieces.
