They are quick to recognize the superiority of this great medicine over ordinary cough medicines, and in their enthusiasm told their friends and neighbors of the benefits of this treatment. They told of their arodety when their children were suddenly seized with croup or severe colds. They told of how quickly relief and cure were obtained by the use of this remedy and of how pleased the children Were to take it. The good news of the merit of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Tur- pentine has spread until few people in this broad land have not heard of it. Croup, bronchitis, asthma, whoop- ing cough, throat irritation, severe clu,-.t colds and pheurnonia soon yield to the extra,ordinar,v soothing, inatience of this preperatiou. Johri Clerk, coachman, Port 11 ,pe Ont., states: - "Last winter I was so bad With a cold that I could not speak above a whisper, and had great pains in the chest. At last I feared it would de- velop into consumption. A friend advised me to tise Dr. Chase's Suitt') of Linseed and Turpentine, and one bottle cured my cold, Which I believe would have proved very serious if I had not used this medicine." Mr. John Pollard, 'Echo Bay, Ont., writes: -"I was troubled last winter with a very bad cold, which was be- ginning to settle on ray 'wigs. was ao hoarse that I could scarcely speak, and had a nasty hacking cough, which I could not get rid of. One bottle of Dr. ChaSe's Syrup of Linseed and 'I'urpentine cured me, and I can heartily recommend it." Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine, 25 cents a bottle, family size (three times as much) 60 cents, at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto.

There are many complaints of the decadence in the breed of 13ritish stags. Year by year the weight is dezreasing, and to -day a stalker iS yrond.of a 14 -stone stag, whereas big fore -fathers would only have been content with an animal of 25 stones. itt Gerinany the stags are nea,rly twice the nize of the Beitish. Yet - not many yeais Ago the breeds were equal in pliTs.ricne. This tlecline is attributed to the fait that with lire - longer life worth when one is made wretched by the infirmities of old age? DO NOT MOVE TO TOWN, friends, when you are fifty or sixty years all, or seventy, or as soon as you are financially able. The ehauge to comparative idleness Will soon make life MOre or lest; of a burden. It will surely hasten the infirmities of age. 'Seeping busy, daily within your strength, will help retard them. Let tip gradually, doing just what you safely Can end hold your own but do not. stop. If you do not need to work longer, as far as income Is concerned, work to help others, mak- ing life a blessing to as many as you can. / hove told you ot one of my aged friends who has never stopped work anti who is well and enjoys life, X could tell you of others about the sItItte age who stopped work ten or fifteen years ago, and who aro far front being as well. They can talk about their infirmities by the hour. But they do not realize that they are simpiy reaping as they sowed; and their troubles could have been put off and almost prevented by an active. useful life, with due attentiOn to moder,ation in all things. Sud- denly quitting work will usually bring on old age troubles with a rush. A gradual letting up, but still always breathing pure air night and day, and avoiding excess of all kinds will retard tbe coming of the infirrni- .ties of old age. - GREAT POULTRY FUTURE. To -day the poultry business is the greatest little business on earth and the poultry press is prOclaiming the fact to an astonished people. Poultry breeders as a class are enthusiastic and ambitious, and they are support- ing the poultry press with all the zneans they possess. With our shows enlarging „in number each season and the profits in poultry culture increas- ing year by year, the poultry press has a great future before it But poultry journals of the future will not ameaurish attempts. They will be the best possible combine.- eion of the poultryman's learning and the printer's skill. "'l'he day of so many small poultry journals is past. People want the best, and while there will be robin for more journals, they will necessary have to be of a high standard to merit the breeder's support, The day is soon corning when every 'nen, wo- man and child who eaises poultry will eagerly devour every fragment of infornolion they can secure that will' enable them to inake an extra dol- . . . lar from then- fowls.

A few days ago a disastrous fire broke out in a tenement -house in Dublin which sem:Lthreatened to de- stroy the whole buildiug. Efforts to get out the furniture, etc., were only moderatelysuccessful,' and some of the tenants were in a frantic 'state. One young girl rushed up to the captain of the fire brigade, who was working hard With his mao to pre- vent the fire spreading, and cried: - "Oh, please, sir, save my piano, it's on tho green(' 'floor." The ground floor being completely!
