W hat's life in a city? Titer's no room to spare; Men are crowded in corners and scant- ed of air; Too near to be neighbors; too fretful for friends; Each man jostles each, as he seeks his own ends. There are folks underneath you, and folks overhead; And the noise o2 the street comes to vex you in bed. The jangle of car -bells, the cab whistle shrill; And the hum and the stir and the dust of the mill That is grinding all day and grows loud- er by night, Conspire against comfort and banish delight. Then, ho, for the country! the singing of birds. The laughter of children, thelowing of herds; Green grass and blue heavens, bright water, clean air, And room enough, room enough! room and to spare! -Henry Johnson, in Outlook. It is now well known that not more than one case of rheumatism in ten re- quires any internal treatment what- ever. All that is needed is a free ap- plication of Chamberlain's Liniment and massaging the parts at each appli- cation. Try it and see how quickly it will relieve the pain and soreness. Sold by all dealers. Stains and Spots. Fruit stains of every sort will do no harm to things washable if they are wet through and through with alcohol before going in the wash. Very big stains will come out if they are first wet with cold water and then have a stream of boiling water poured stead- ily through the stains for two or three minutes. Stains on stuffs notwashable may be got rid of thus: Fold a cheese cloth square thickly and lay it smooth upon the board; over that stretch the stained stuff smoothly, right side down; if there is a lining, rip it so as to get at the under side; but first brush, not only the stain, but the whole garment thoroughly, so as to remove all the in- visible dust and prevent the cleansing from leaving an ugly circle, worse than the spot itself. Pour a little alcohol through the spot and dab the place hard with a soft, clean rag. Shift the spot over a fresh place on the cheesecloth, and pour on more alcohol, using just enough to drench the spot without spreading. Do this two or three times then look at the right side.

Previous to that, I had been very much troubled with Rheumatism and Kidney Disease, and had taken many remedies as well as employing hot applications of salt bags etc., without getting satisfactory results.

I'm glad the people don't insist that I should fcr an office run; they've tum- bled to the fact, I wilt, that I don't like that sort of fun. No delegations seek me at my door to tell me that the State demands my presence on the House's floor, the service of my brain and hands, No patriots come round to say that all is lost if I don't rise and knock the welkin loose to -day with facts, statistics, pipedreams, lies. I do not list to Tums or Dicks unwind their campaign rigmarole; the stale old game of politics imparts the willies to my soul. I've seen the tiresome game so long; I've seen the roorbach pound- ed flat; I've seen the same old shriek- ing throng demanding this, rebuking that! And always when the noise is done, expired the music and the thrills, the chronic statesmen gets the mon, the voters have to foot the bills. The statesmen know I do not Bare who wins or loses in the fight; they know I will not paw the air, or lug trans- parency by night; they know I will not toot a horn or waddle with the other geese, and so they pass me up with scorn, and 1 enjoy a splendid peace. - Walt Mason.

Medicinal Plant Promisee Fair Return on Cost and tabor of Production. Foxglove bas for some years been cultivated as a commercial drug plant Iu several European countries. It is a fairly hardy perennial plant, It is of easy culture, growing best in rich well drained garden learns, but does not thrive to advantage In wet soils or bar- ren. sandy ones. Seeds and leaves both contain medicinal virtue, but the latter, carefully dried In the shade to preserve the natural green color, form the only product that is new marketable. The current price ranges from 11 to 12 rents per pound, dry weight. The most reliable' estimates of yield do not ex- ceed GQ0 pounds drled leaves to the acre, says Rural New Yorker, Foxglove promises a fair return for the cost of growing. but any consider- able acreage grown in this country would quickly overstock the market. 1'he present drug requirement that the leaves be only placed from plants of two years' growth at the commence - went of bloom greatly increases the rest of production. it is best to use the typical purple tiovvered. form of Digitalis purpurea, which may be bad from most seeds - A young woman living in Grand Junction, Col., the other night forced a tramp caught peeping through her window to walk at the point of a revol- ver for a quarter of a mile, where he was turned over to a policeman. Slie was preparing to retire when she dis- covered the peeper. Stepping quietly from her room she got her father's revolver and crept steathily up to the man. He obeyed her command to walk ahead. SUFFERED WITH LAME BACK INAS NOT ABLE TO STRAIGHTEN UP Mr. C. Grace, Hamilton, Ont., writes: "I was suffering with lame back, and for two weeks was not able to straighten up to walk, and hardly able to sit down for the pains in my back, hips and legs. I had used different kinds of pills, plasters, liniments and medicines, without any relief. One day there was a B.B.B. book left at our door, and I read about Doan's Kidney Pills, and I decided to try them. Before I had half a box used I felt a great deale and b y the time bettery I had used two boxes I was cured. I have no hesita- tion in recommending Doan's Kidney Pills to all suffering as I did, or from any illness arising from diseased kidneys.

They may bo ;own directly in the field at the rate of .about two pounds to the acre in rows three feet apart to admit of horse culti- vation or twenty inches apart if hand culture is intended. l'be ordinary gar- den seed drill has been found effective, but it is best to remove all covering attachments, first setting the drill'plow to open a furrow not more than one- balf inch deep. Enough fine soil will work in the furrow to cover the seeds to the needed depth. Plants may also be raised in a seed bed like tobacco plants and lransvlant- ed in .lune during dull weather to the Held, setting them twelve or tifteen niches apart in rows two or three feet apart. Whether sown in field rr nurs- ery, the seeds should be put in at the earliest practicable moment in spring that the soil can be got in good condi- tion, as they are slow in germinating. It is good practice to drop an occa- sional radish seed in the rows, as the latter quickly come up and indicate the rows so that cultivation and conse- quent weed destruction may begin be- fore the tiny foxglove seedlings appear. The soil should be wen enriched, Mowed, worked and put in fine filth and cultivation and weed elimination be thorough thronghout the grow- ing season. In field culture the plants should be thinned to stand not over fif- teen inches apart in the rows, as soon ns they can be well distinguished. At the approach of severe freezing weather a mulch of strawy manure or litter free from seeds of troublesome weeds will lessen the danger of win- ter Millin;. The plants bloom in June of the second year, when the leaves should be stripped and cured for mar- ket. Foxglove should be grown as a biennial or two year crop. Individual plants occasionally live several years, but so many die after blooming that it is scarcely possible to maintain a stand aver the second year. 00000000000 000000000 The home is often taken to rep- resent the prosperity of the farm upon which it stands. if your homea does not do the farm jus- tice build another as soon as pos- sible that will reflect credit upon the farm and show the enter- prise of the manager. 000000000 00000 00000 00000 DESTROYING MOTHS. Rugs or upholstered furniture infect- ed with moths may be freed by a thor- ough 'soaking in naphtha, which will kill the eggs as well us the old moths. Articles so treated, however, should be aired for several days afterward, and not be brought near a flame or heat of any kind until the fumes have evapor- ated. If a moth spot is found in a carpet, and the naphtha bath is inconvenient, cover the place with a wet cloth and apply a hot iron until it is dry. This will kill the moths and the eggs. Beat the carpet and scrub the floors with strong, hot salt water before relaying it. To prevent further trouble, sprinkle the carpet with salt once a week before sweeping. Camphor balls or powdered camphor is usually used in keeping moths out of clothes that hang in closets or are put away for the season when cedar chests are not at hand. Turpentine sprinkled around the crevices of closets, drawers and boxes containing clothing is also effective. Before putting clothes or furs away, however, expose them to the hot sun. Better yet, press those clothes which will not be hurt by the process with a hot iron to kill the moth eggs. The commission plan of civic Govern- ment was not3 favored at the meeting of the Ontario (Munieipall Association. The Ontario:Railway Board was Bever- ly criticized. Roots Por Dairy Stock. By care in preparing the soil and growing the crop, from fifteen to twen. ty-five tons of roots, like mangels, ruta- bagas or stook carrots, can he grown per acre. They can be stored under the feeding alley or In a pit outside of tho barn at very little expense. Twenty tons of foots will supply ten cows twenty pounds per day each for 200 days and can be grown and harvested at a cost of less than M. The nutri- ents ttontained in twenty togas of roots are worth $30 when bran is worth $20 per ton; so the feeding value of the roots is sufficient to pay for the cost at production, besides the additional ad- vantage of their supplying the sttecu• "lance 'needed 11y the auin tl,'- omo and Farm. tlNI At the rate al; increase in the Ira& of Canada maintained since the beglad- ning of the present fiscal year, tb.a total trade of the Dominion for the fnU year will considerably pass the biilion- dollar mark. For April the import* increased by over $1300,000 and ex, ports by nearly $3,000,000. The eor:n- piete figures for May are not yet avail- able, but the increase for that month and for the present month to date has been about the same in proportion. This means an increase of approximate - 13r $200,000,0(0 for the twelve months. The total .trade of the Dominion for the last fiscal year was a little over $602,- 000,100 The current year promises to pass the billion -dollar mark by at least $50,000,C00. As another indication of prosperity and the rapid development of the country, the Finance Depart- ment reports an increase in revenue for the first two months of the fiscal year totalling a little over $5,0(.0,000. To rid closets, drawers, trunks, etc., of moths, air well, then fumigate with burning vinegar. The fumes of the vinegar will penetrate every crack, killing the moths. To use, heat a shovel or piece of iron red hot, set in an old vessel, and pour hot vinegar on it, closing the closet, or trunk tightly at once. A mixture of strong kitchen spices plentifully sprinkled among bed- ding, clothing or furs, will keep moths out. It is the strong, pungent smell they object to. If camphor is used to protect furs, it should be remembered that seal skin, and some other furs are damaged by it, contact with it produc- ing streaks of gray and yellow. +++++44444441743.44++++++++++ ++++++++3•+4.4 14++f++++++++ .... i The Times ,1, , Clubbrng List, 4.444 4.4. 4.444 4.
