"FRUIT-A-TI'VESII CURED HIM
Tic trroN, Ont. Jan. 29th, zeo9.
"I was a dreadful sufferer for many
years from Stomach and Liver Trouble
-but my greatest suffering was from
violent headaches. They were so dis-
tressing that I almost had to give up my
business, I went to Toronto, consulted
specialists and wore glasses, but
nothing did me any good and the
headaches became intolerable.
I was then induced to try "Fruit-a-
tives" and from the beginning, I was
better, and in a short time I was quite
well again -no more headaches -and I
threw my glasses away.
"Fruit -a -trues" not only cured my
headaches, but completely cured me of
all indigestion, and restored me to
perfect health again." W. j. McCOMB.
"Fruit-a-tives" is the greatest cure
for headaches in the world and is the
only medicine made of fruit juices.

DISRAELI ON LOVE.
There is no usury in love.
Love at first sight is usually branded
as spurious.
The magic of first love is the ignor-
ance that it can ever end.
Want of love or want of money lies
at the bottom of all our grief,
Nature is stronger than education.
An obedient wife commands her hus-
band.
If to feel is to be sentimental, I can-
not help it.
Never apologize for showing feeling.
My friend, remember that when you
do so, you apologize for truth.
Pearls are
like girls; they require
quite as much attention.
If you are not very clever you should
be conciliatory.
Love -he utters inconceivable things,
and she replies to him in incomprehen-
the health the health benefits that
Bible somethings.
Marriage? I respect the institution.
I have always thought that every wo-
man should marry -and no man.
Unless we despise a woman when
we cease to love her, we are still a
slave without the consolation of intoxi-
cation.
It is seldon the lot of husbands that
their confidential friends gain the re-
gards of their brides.
The day before marriage and the
hour before death is when a man thinks
least of his purse and most of his
neighbor.
The wealth of a man is the number
of things he loves and blesses, which
he is loved -and blessed by. -Carlyle.
The Dominion Steel Corporation is
issuing $7,000,000 of 6 per cent. pre-
ferred stock in London and Amster-
dam.
Talking Politics.
To -day I went to Beeswack's store
to buy some hinges for my door -that
door is sagging now like sin, an agent
having kicked it in. Old Beeswaek
took the hinges down, and wrapped
them up in paper brown, and tied the
package with a string, and as he toiled
he said: "By jing, the way they run
this Government is causing widespread
discontent. Let me explain this Sched-
ule K, which deals with setting hens
and hay; just harken too my clarion
notes concerning geese and billy goats,
and how the robber tariff grinds the
poor man's face until he finds himself
up to his ears in soup-" I interrupt-
ed with a whoop. "I came for hinges!"
I exclaimed, "and here you're handing
out your blamed worm-eaten theories
which were stale when Jonah tooled
his pacing whale. It's always thus
throughout the land; the grocer cannot
sell me sand without discussing candi-
dates and also-rans and kindred skates.
The laundryman who boils my shirts
discusses issues till it hurts. I simply
cannot buy a thing but I must listen to
a string of punk reflections, all in vain,
that bear upon this year's campaign.
It's vain to make excuse and cringe; I
will not buy your hanged old hinge. I'll
never blow another cent with men who
roast the Government and chasten me
with ancient news and bore me with
their tiresome views." -Walt Mason.

FEEDING BEEF CALVES.
Mottled Practiced by aR Successful Ne-
braska Farmer.
Feeding babybeef for market is per-
haps
-
haps
the most highly specialized indus-
try in our whole system of live stock
management, with the possible excep-
tion of producing hothouse Iambs.
Baby beef is a highly finished product.
It takes a careful and skillful feeder to
produce it, and the finished product
must be first class in order to command
a profitable market, says Orange Judd
Farmer.
Out In Hall county, Neb., lives a
young German farmer, Paul Frauen 1►y
name, who Is the expert baby beef
feeder of the whole Platte valley. He
sort of grew up in the business or the
art was handed down to him by kis
lather, who has been a cattle feeder
for a great many years.
The main factors of success in feed-
ing young cattle for baby beet, accord-
ing to Mr. Frauen's experience, are,
first, securing well bred, high class ani-
mals and, second, keeping them grow-
ing and thrifty by feeding heavily all.

bred sires continuously in their herds
with the result that their stock is very
high grade Herefords and Shorthorns.
These high class cows crossed witk
pure bred sires produce calves in every
way suited to the requirements of baby
beet production.
"We keep our cows well fed and
thrifty so they are able to produce
strong, large calves," says Mr. Frauei,
"and then we feed for heavy milk pro-
duction so that the greatest growth

The chief factor to the progress
at my Shorthorn breeding has
been a good bull, says an Iowa
atoCk raiser in Breeder's Gazette.
Judging from my experience and
observation, this foundation is the
most important influence in found-
ing a herd and assuring the subse-
quent success of any breeder.
Through the agency of a prepotent
sire a uniformity of type may be
established. This to a large extent
determines a breeder's standing and
the prices which he may command.
Important as It is to have a good
sire, it la quite as essential that the
females should be of a high order.

LARGE TREES.
The Baobab Is a Dwarf In Height But
ot Enormous Girth,
Not all the 'big'• trees of the world
anal!, in. British Columbia, as many
right suppose from having seen so
much in print about the giant sequo-
ias of that province. Th, eucalyptus
trees of Australia and Tasmania attain
a greater height, for instance. Of
course, any tree bearing its topmost
branches from 300 to 350 feet up in the
air is bound to excite the admiration
of the beholder, and the two varie-
ties mentioned are the only ones en,
joying this distinction. But when it
comes to size of trunk there is an,
otiiet to share the honor. This is the
giant baobab tree of Africa and India,
another name for which is the mon-
key -bread tree. Many are to be found
in tropical Africa, where it grows to
huge size of trunk. Unlike the sequoia
and eucalyptus trees, however, the
baobab does not attain any great
height. Its trunk may be 20 to 30 feet
in diameter, but the branches spread
out at a height of 25 to 30 feet, often
extending 60 to 70 feet and sometimes
bending downward so that their tips
nearly touch the ground, -making a
it, afy tent of quite large proportions.
The name monkey -bread comes front
the fruit of the baobab tree, which
is a woody capsule about the size of a
citron and contain, a farinaceous pulp
of pleasantly acid flavor. The wood
is very soft and the bark is used by
native, for making rope and cloth.
Peer In a Pulpit.
Lord Kinnaird, who has gone to
Egypt for a three months trip, was al
one time a famous footballer. A hand-
book published thirty-eight years ago
described him as "without exception
the best player of the day, capable of
taking anyplace p ce on the field." He
was quite fearless himself, but his
mother suffered some anxiety on his
account. When the late Sir Francis
Marindin, also a footballer, called up-
on her one day, she expressed her
fear that "Arthur would some day
come home with a broken leg." "Don't
be alarmed," smilingly answered Sir
Francis, "for if he does it will not be
his own."
Lord Kinnaird has often occupied a
pulpit as a preacher. Ile is distinctly
evangelical in tone, and has learnt the
art of being able to drive homely
truths into the hearts of his congrega-
tion without hardly ever raising his
voice or indulging in eloquent ges-
tures. Nor is he above raising an occa-
sional laugh with a word, or a phrase,
or a story.
Once he convulsed his hearers by
telling them of a "wee Scot laddie"
who had developed the habit of piek-
ing his grandmother's gooseberries.
Caught in the act, he declared that
it was the Devil who tempted him.
'Mien," said the grandmother, "the
next time he tempt=s you say, Get
thee behind me, Satan'," Shortly af-
terwards, the precious laddie was
again caught in the act, and upon
again being scolded. murmured: "I
said, 'Get thee behind rue, Satan,' and
he got behind me and pushed me into
the middle of the bush."

The Smallest Armies.
If ever the dream of the disarma-
ment of the world shall be realized
there are several countries that would
not have much to do in this line -as,
for instance, Monaco, whose army con-
sists of seventy-five guards, seventy-
five carabineers and twenty firemen.
The next smallest army is that of
Luxembourg, with its 135 gendarmes,
170 volunteers and thirty musicians.
In the republic of San Marino they
can put in the field a total of nine
companies of 950 men and thirty-eight
officers, commanded by a marshal.
The army on a peace footing consists
of one company of sixty men. The
most amusing of all the "armies,"
however, is that of Liberia. That
country's fighting force is composed of
700 men and 800 officers, but the latter
are evidently deemed very terrible by
their own Government since the re-
public issues proclamations of neutral-
ity when wars break out between any
of the powers.

Happy Woman.
Oh, see the fat lady 1
How happy she looks.
And why is she so happy?
Her dressmaker tells her that her
dress makes her look thin.
But does it?
Never mind that. Her husband tells
her she looks thin and her friends all
tell her she looks thin.
But does she not know she is fat?
Yea, ohild, but she thinks they all
really think she is thin, and that is
what makes her happy.
The Desert of Sahara.
The greater part of the desert of
Sahara is from 6,000 to 8,000 feed
above the level of the ocean. The
desert is not rainless, but showers
cover it with grass for a few weeks
in the year, large flocks and herds
being mainly upon its borders, and
the oases are depressions in which
water van be collected and stored.
It was one time believed that the,
whole of the desert was below the
sea level inatead of only a compara-
tively small part of it.
The Ruling passion.
A gambler on his deathbed, having
seriously taken leave of hia physician,
who told him thht he could not live
beyond eight o'clock next mornin
exerted the small strength he had left
to call the doctor back, which having
rbcompfished with difficulty, for he
:could hardly exceed it whisper, "Doe.

eas I live till nine." -London Tit•Bits.

"Many enngratutations Herr Zwen-
ger! 1 hear your wife presented tWini

"Oh, no; it wasn't I. It wag the

"Then I congratulate you very
heartily,"
As to Treating.
(Ottawa Free Press.)
Bow can treating be abolished so
long as the bar is open? By what pro-
cess of law could the Government sanc-
tion the operation of a liquor bar and
then attempt to prevent treating? The
very suggestion itself tells of its own
impassibility. How, for instance,
Mild John Jones, a bricklayer, in the
bar -room for his daily glass of beer, be
prevented from asking Tom Brown, his
carpenter chum on the same job, to
have a drink? It ,could require an
army of detectives; it would involve a
system of espionage which would nev-
er be tolerated in a free country; and
it would create a condition of public
opinion which would soon result in a
revulsion of feeling which would bring
about a condition worse than that now
existing. Take the city of Toronto it-
self, with its quarter -mile long bars,
for example, and remember what takes
pace there between four and seven on
a Saturday afternoon, either in winter
or summer. How could treating be
prevented? Who could enforce the
law? Who would undertake to sum-
mon constables to carry men who had
treated one or two friends to the Court
street police station or the city hall?
Why, it would require the whole of the
city hall itself to provide accommoda-
tion for every man who treats in Tor-
onto on a Saturday afternoon.
