There Are Two Reasons Why There is no Treatment
so Thoroughly Satisfactory and Lastingly Bens.,
ficial as Dr. Chase's Nerve Food.
The body» of man can be influenced
In health or disease only thrqugh
two chanttels-the blood and the
'nerves.
During the winter the blood be-
comes thin and watery because of
the artificial life we are compelled
to lead incloora-the artificial food,
-the breathing oi impure air, the lack
of e•vereise, and this is why most
people find it necessary to use a
blood builder and nerve restorative
in the spring.
Por two reasons Dr. Chase's Werve
Food is the most satiseactory spring,
medicine that you can possibly ob-
tain. lu the first place, it is gently
laxative. Just enough so that when
taken regularly it ensures proper
action of the bowels. Secondly, it
forms new red corpuscles in the
blood or in other words makes the
blood rich, red and life-sustaining.
Through the median' ofthe blood
and nerves Dr, Chase's Nerve Food
Influences every- nook and corner of
the system, ening new vigor to the
vital organs such as the heart,
lungs, stomach, liver and kidneys,
and ensuring their regular and
healthful action.
This great food cure sharpens up
the appetite, inakes the digestion
good and actually adds new firm
flesh and tissue to the body as you
can prove by weighing yourself while
using it.
Liquid medicines always have a
stinaulating effect clue to the presence
of alcohol. There is pone of this in
connection with Dr. Chase's Nerve
Food, and for this reason any bene-
fit you feel is lasting and you can
be certain that with eaeli dose your
blood is getting richer and your
system is being built up.

breathing within a few Indies of my

ed by the neglect and indifference of
he farmer.
Ground occupied by corn, beans,
potatoes or other hoed crops seems
most saitable for growing oats.
Plowing should begin as soon as the
ondition of the soil will admit, for
much depends on early seeding for
a favorable outcome of this crop.
The roller should follow each day's
plowing, raid no berm results if tbe
burrow follows immediately after ;
for the oat crop especially needs
that every precaution sbould be
taken to save the moisture already
stored just beneath the surface to
assist over the prolonged periods of
drought liable to occur.
To aid in this work the soil should
be reduced to a fine tilth and the
improved tools now available leave
no excuse for careless, slip -shod work
In this direction. The amount of
seed required per acre varies with
different farmers from two to three
bushels. Two bushe/s of well -cleaned
seed that has not had its germinat-
ing qualities.injurcd during its cur-
ing prbeese and sown with drill has
many years been considered amply
sufficient.
The benefit to be derived froni roll-
ing the ground after the drill is 'a
matter of adverse criticism by malty,
but all admit the improved condi-
tion of the ground for the future
working of the self -binding har-
vester.
CLOVEA AS A FERTILIZER. .
Bulletin a0 from the Central Ex-
periment Farm, Ottawa, by Prof.
Frank T. Shutt, discusses the value
derived from growing and plowing
under of clover crops. The experi-
ments conducted at this station
cover a period of eight years, and
Contain considerable dete of practi-
cal importance. The advantage de-
rived from plowing muter of clover
is briefly stated as follows :
1. There is an enrichment of the
soil by the addition of nitrogen ob-
tained from the atmosphere.
2. There is an increase to the
store of a-vailable mineral plant food
(phosphoric acid, potash and lime)
in the surface of the soil taken by
the clover in part from depths not
reached by the shallower root sys-
teraseof other farm crops.
3, There is a large addition o f

day reviewing troops. Ile drove
straight from the performance back
to the railway station to catch the

reviews. A few aelventarous English
visitors took up their stand by a
level crossing a mile out by 'Wiesba-
'den, so as to get an *uninterrupted
'view of the Royal train as it passed
by. Their curiosity was rewarded
by a full view of the Imperial sa-
loon-ca.t•riage brilliantl3r ligitted and

out of Wiesbaden, -with the songs of
the German prima -donna, not out of
his ears, yet there sat an Emperor
at his desk, writing as diligently as
the most industrious and most in-
ferior of novelists. •

NO ASSASSIN'S WEAVOI,T,
Laughable Incident of the Siege
of Waris.
During the siege of eParis, it was
the province of -the city &Wats not
so much to destroy' their enemies
from outside, as to prevent honest
Frenchmen and others from being
unjustly condemned. This was some-
tiraes a, difficult teak, for fear was
in the air, and every third man was
liable to suspicion as being a spy.
One night a powerful feflow was
brought in before Captain Garnier,
of the police. A spy is usually
gentle and conciliating tini„O' he sees
tne game is up ; but, this ta N was
violent and a little &urn I.Tis
only proved offense was that he had
been seen loitering near the fortifica-
tions. It seemed as if he must be
armed, and with great difficulty
dozen men succeeded in getting off
his coat. There, between his -waist-
coat and his shirt, was a murderous
looking knife.
"Proved !" cried the' iworeful of
guards. "He is a. Prussian spy."
Captain Cornier es.aanined the
knife carefully. He tiled to find the
name of the maker, but failing in
that, he put the blade to his nose.
Then he took up a candle and looked
more carefully still at the prisoner.
"The man is drunk," amid he.
"The hest thing you can do is to
take him home."
"But the knife !" insisted the ser-
geant.
"The knife is all right,"
"I should tbinic it was all right,"
broke out the owner, "seeing that
I'm cutting meat all day with it for
these confounded Parisiens" !"
He was dismissed. But the guards
were not satisfied. Tlaey Surrounded
their captain, doubtful1 even of him,
"Why did you life the kniie to
your face ?" inquired the sorgeant•
"Was that a sign you Made to the
fellow W'
"No, my friend, r was simply
smelling of it, and it smelled aboinr,
inably of oeions."
