Owing to bad colds, overeat- ing or intemper- ance, ntemper-ance, or to the. after effects of influenza -uric acid and toxins (poisons) are stored up in the body and cause backache, lum- bag), rheumatic pains and stiff joints. It is most es- sential that treatment be di- rected towards prompt casting out of the poisons from the body which cause these pains and aches. This means that the excretory organs -(the bowels, slain and kidneys)- should be excited to their best efforts. Every one should clean house -internally -and thus protectone's self from many germ diseases, by taking castor oil or a pleasant laxative such as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, which are made of May- apple, aloes and jalap. Take these every other day. This will excite efficient bowel action. If you suffer from baoltache, irri- tation of the bladder and the kidneys, shown by the frequent calls toet out of bed at night, considerable sediment in the water,brick-dust ; deposit, perhaps headache in the morning, you should obtain at the drug store "Anuric" (anti - uric acid), first put up by Dr. 'Pierce, To build up the strength and improve the blood, take an iron tonic such as "hantic," manufactured by Dr. Pierce, to be had in tablets at drug stores, or some good herbal tonic such as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,. made from wild roots and barks without aaeohol, and put up in tablets or liquid ENTRANCE A.II.

Ile• pairing at hoaiie means sr;. ing in two ways --a saving of cxpcnsr and a saving of time, Before attempting to take a tna• chine apart it is well to their eughls look over it to gain a clear idea o3 the general arrangement and tomaoo of the parts. Machines ,with few parts or parts whose relations are quite obvious. do not require to be marked, but machines whose parts are numerous and similar in size and in aP ear.hee should be given die, tinetive marks -similar marks beittr put on adjoining parts. These~ narks may be centre -pops arranged In de- vices so:; . or letter£ stamped upon surface ^of the party where there is no frictional contact In the stress of a busy season c broken tooth of a gear can be axe(' up in a fee minutes, and if properly dune gears so I ep ;i.•"d will often last an end, fi,ait,• tette-often mane years Cltip anei tile the amines torah dowr to the root. Draw centre line of tooth across width of rite. Drill the required number of holes, according' to width of ring. A pin of wrought iron stock may be driven gently intc the holes and tiled to shape to match the other teeth. A better job naay be made by tapping the plugs into the rhu (Fig. 6), To mend harness by sewing pro - mire a couple of strong needles, a ball of high-grade flax shoe thread (No. 8), a ball of cobbler's wax, a straight and bent awl, and a clamp to hold the work. The clamp can be made from two oak barrel staves (Fig. 1), The thread should be made in length and strength according to the work to be done. For light work from 3 to dve strands will suffice, for me- dium, like lines and girths, from 6 to 8 strands; and for heavy stitching, as tugs and breeching, it will require frotu 9 to 15 strands. Break the thread by rubbing' it down upon your knee, with your right band, and give it a sudden jerk, it should break in a long ragged end, The ends should be placed together so as to form a long tapened point, Hold strands together in your left hand. With wax in right hand draw it over the ends a few times, enough , to keep them together. Now throw; strands over a nail, draw ends even, twine the end in left hand over fore- finger, and rub the other end. down on the right knee with the right hand. When well twisted rub on more wax. Thread a needle an each end, draw the thread through the eye for about two inches. I3end back the points of the thread and twist theta well into the body of the thread (Fig. ta). Pierce a hole in the work with a straight awl and insert a needle into the hole drawing the thread halfway through (Fig. lb). Pierce another: hole and pass a. needle through for two or three inches. Through the seine hole draw the other needle, With a thread in each hand pull them both quite tight. Repeat. Keep stitches straight and uniform in length (Fig. 1c). For joining two pliable surfaces together in emergency there is, per- haps, nothing sir handy, so strong and so neat as a rivet. An assort- ment of rivets should be kept on hand, both of soft iron tinned and of solid copper (Figs. 2, 3, 4). The split end clincher rivets are suitable for leather or stout woven material, as saddle girths and head halters; iron or copper fiat head washer rivets may be used for leather, cloth, thin metal and for even thin strips of wood (Fig. 5). The wagon is an important factor in the daily routine work of the farm, and should be kept in good running order, but it requires spe- cial consideration and• experience to profitably repair the wheels, for un- less the proper taper and "gather" is given to the spindle, and the axle set the right way, it will result in a hard -running wagon, the wheel grinding on the collar or nut instead of playing easily between them. ' The farmer, however, can attend to loose spokes, tires and hub bands, checked hubs, etc. After renewing the brok- en parts and tightening up tires and loose skeins, clean the wagon thor- oughly, fi11 the checks with some good' filler and give the trhole a coat of paint. This will preserve the wood and prevent shrieking. A broken may tongue shaft or g be efficiently spliced with hoop iron as shown in Fig ?. The iron can easily be bent round close by fixing one end first and then pulling it over with one hand and tapping it with a hammer at the same time. Assume a broken rail of a gate, hay or stock rack. The old bar or rail is sawn. Off about a foot from the down rail L as shown by dotted line in sketch 8a, A short' piece of new stun is then. driven into the mortice in the head (B) and cut off the right length; the, two'are then -.nailed to- gether as shown at Eh in part plana If broken at A (Fig 8) the splicing may be made as shown in sketch . by wrapping hoop iron round it, o7• by nailing on each side strong strips of hardwood as at D (Fig. 8). One of the first places for a gate to get rotten is at the junction of brace and bar- or back .catised- by. wet lodging there. The only way to fix this is,' as shown at C (Fig. ''8) by nailing strip of 'hardwood firmly to brace as low down as bottom rail will allow. -Prof. John Evans, O. A. College, Guelph. ,Zurich Mr. Ed.

Grand Bend `crinu.t Accident. -Mr. George Wal - per of the B Line, Stephen, met with an unfortunate accident while driving an Overland car home from Parkhill. on Sunday tnornimiCiast. When near- ing the big hill north of the town he put sen extra speed to make the grade and the ear was probably running at the rate of forty miles an: hour when the wheels got into a rut and in at- tempting to get them out one war wrenched off and the car turned tur- tle Mr. \Valper was thrown out with ;great force and he sustained se vere injury, both arms and his left leg being broken and he ree•eivr.l a bad shaking up. He was at once re- moved to his home where his injuries were dressed and he. is now doing as well as can be expected, but it will be some time before he will be able to be around again, A party of three young ladies and two young gentlemen from alitvertan had a narrow .escape with their lives while rounding the corner at Port Blake corning towards Grand Bend i,n a car on Sunday last, At that point there is a very rough spot in, the road and this was the cause of the acci- dent. the driver losing control of the car, when all were tipped ,out, with the result that all five were more or less injured. This should be a warning to the Township Council to have the road properly levelled as it is a very dangerous spot.. Aleeady a number of similar accidents have taken place at . s thisnot '1 therei, point and it is anti poen loss of lite, followed by it suit e'er damages will the Council make a move to remedy the evil.
