Koweyt, about whieh there is what looks like a serious dispute between Great Britain aml 'Turkey, is the ob- "active of two different lines of rail- way, One is the German 1iiOtx-oin Coustantinople, of which part is al- ready couraructed, and which, it is interided to carry slowa the valley of the Tigris to Badad Lu4from there crossing the Tigris, and. the Euphra- tes somewhere uear Kerbela, to Das- ra, the ancient Da.ssorah, to Kovr- eyt. The other line, of which less has been heard, is a British projeet, and would run from some point on the Suez Canal to ICoweyt almost. directly across Arabia.. The project,, bowever, cannot be said to be au entirely new one. as there is reason ' to believe that as far back as 1382 two British officers of Engineers, one the present Commander -in -Chief iu South Africa. Lord Kitchener, and the other now Major -Gen. Cbermside, were in Arabia and on the Persian Gulf engaged in exploring end malt- ing observations, political aral oth- er, of an important character.

Among the zuultitude of ailments that afflict humanity there axe few that cause more acute misery than indigestion or dyspepsia, as it is variously called. Both young and old are susceptible to its attacks, and its victims throughout the coun- try are numbered by teus of thou- sands. Among the disagreeable stanptonas which accompany dyspep- sia and make it easily recognizable, are weight, uneasiness +nod a heavy feeling in the stomach after eatiug. a. feeling of weariness, sick headache and dizziness. pains in the stomach, offensive breath, irritability. etc. Ordinary medicines will uot cure dyspepsia.

It is quite conceivable that even the German Emperor might find it both politic and expe- dient to withdraw the aegis of bis protection from the person of the Sultan, and come to some agreement with Russia and France as to the immediate future of Constantinople and Turkey, in order to put an end to the perpetual disorder prevailing throughout the Ottoman Empire which threatens the peace of Europe.

The Cry of An Infant is Natuee's Signal of Distress.. Babies never • cry unless there is some very good reason for it. The cry of a baby is nature's . warning signal that there is something wrong. Every mother ought to get to work immediately to find out what that something wrong may be. 1! .the fretfulness and irritation are not caused by exterior tources, it is con- clusive evidence that the crying- baby is ill. The only safe and judicious thing to do is to administer Baby's Own Tablets without the slightest delay. For indigestion, sleeplessness, the irritation accompanying the cutting of teeth, diarrhoea, cdhstipation, colic, and simple fevers, these mar- vellous little tablets have given re- lief in thousands of cases and saved many precious baby lives. Do not give a child so-called ''soothing" medicines; such only stupify and pro- duce unnatural sleep. Baby's Own Tablets are geara,nteed to contain no opiate or other harmful drugs; they promote sound, healthy sleep be- cause they go directly to the root of baby troubles. Dissaved in water these •tablets can be given to the youngest infant. Mrs. Walter Brown, Mulby Q.ue says: -I have never used, any Medicine for baby that did as mueli good as Baby's Own Tab- icte 1 would not be withent thelet."

A prominent e London tradesman. who had supplied ; " tho 'Royal famillee of Europe with (11 his Were4 for generations, upplied e• for the King's patronage after His ". Majesty's accession. The King do- . murred to granting it on the grounds that the tradesman was an • e extensive advertieer, and was very fond of citing the mews ot his ' Royal customers.

A nutnefacturer of health ap- pliantes recently found this out to . his 'cost.

Another London firm had been in the habit, of displaying the Royal arms of England for a quarter of a century without any question being raised.

There is a good deal of talk about balanc ed rations for swine. There is no doubt of the value of a blieenced ra.- tion and there is much profit to be gained by such a ration, providing the farm produces all the essentials for that ration. Some farmers will tell you that they cannot make any money feeding hogs, or at least that they have paid out all profits in buy- ing- feeds. The man who is a suc- cessful farmer must take into con- sideration the economies in running his business. The man who is pay- ing out money for high-priced foods and conditioners that he might pro- duce for hintself is not practicing economy. The aim of every farmer must be to produce on Ids farm all the food that is necessary to both grow tend fatten hie pork. Corn and grass are two great feeds that every farmer should pin his faith to in the corn and grass re- gion. • The grass coal be voxied to suit the climate and soil of the var- ious locations. Oats can be tteed as clmege tar -good advantage, while the product of the dairy ca,n be worked into pork with equal profit. • Every farmer should study his own conditions and environments and produce the toed necessary' % as a. mat- ter of economy and profit from the farm. Instead of buying- bone meal, feed your charcoal or ashes or cob "ashes, also feed with roots, small potatees, pmepkin.s and other vege- tables grown. upon the farm. Study your animals, keep them on the melee and on the, grow. You will find by careful investigation of the capabilities of your farm that it will produce adequate stuff ._to meet al/ requirements of rowing bogs with- outhaving.to buy high-priced feeds cr , anthis method will bring you a profit. HOW TO TETHER YOTIR BEAST. An excellent method of tethering your horse is as follows; Instead of driving in a certain peg and tying the rope to it, as most people do, take a long, strong wire and fasten it eci a peg at either encl. The pegs are driven into the ground as fa,r apart as the wire can easily be stretched by hand, and the tether - rope is fastened to a rine sliding on the wire. If the wire :used is One hUndred yards long, and the tether - rope efty feet, the animal is allowed to graze over about three-quarters of an acre. As the wire is tight and Iles flat upon the ground, there is no fear of the animal becoming en- tangled in it. Of course it is pre- ferable not to stretch it across a hollow. A strong ,single fence wire is strong enough, or perhaps the On one notable occasion the Czar reduced a Russian general to a frightful state of consternation. It happened soon after his, accession and before •• his coronation,that he was cycling in the park at Cats - china, wearing, as was his wont, ,the uniform of a Colonel. Something having gone wrong with hie chain, he got off to adjust it, and just ats that moment a pompous general from a distant province passed. ,Not receiving, the salute due to him, the officer stepped up to the supposed colonel and peremptorily requested an explanation of the seeming ilis- cOurtesy.
