"Fruit -a -fives" Cured After
15 Years' Suffering
CORNWALL CI N1`RN.,, ONt.,
NovnritnriR 27th till.
"I was a martyr to Hay Fever for
probably fifteen years and 1 suffered
terribly at times. I consulted many
physicians and took their treatment,
and I tried every remedy I heard of as
being good for Hay Fever but nothing
helped me.
Then I heard of "Fruit-a•tives" and
decided to try them, and I ant thankful
to say that this remedy cured me
completely.
To every sufferer from Hay Fever, I
wish to say -"Try Fruit-a-tives". This
rne,licine cured me when every other
treatment failed, and I believe it is a
perfect cure for this dreadful disease -
Hay Fever"
MRS. H]~NRV KBMP.
The real cause of Hay Fever is
poisoned blood, due to the faulty action
of the bowels, kidneys and skin.
"Fruit -a -lives" cleans the blood by
regulating bowels, kidneys and skin -
and thus relieves the excessive strain
on the nervous system. Try "Fruit-a-

TREATMENT FOR -
CHOKING CATTLE
This accident usually happens twig
attempting to swallow too large an ob.
sect, such as a turnip, potato, beet or
apple, though la rare cases choking
may occur from other food, such as dry;
bran or chafe or finely ground food,
lodging in and filling up a portion of
the gullet, This latter form is liable
to occur to animals that are greedy,
feeders.
The symptoms of this accident will
vary somewhat according to the part
of the gullet or throat in which the ob.
The Hereford breed of bee! cat-
tle is the hardiest and healthiest of
any ,breed, says B. 0, Gammon in
Kansas Farmer. Official reports of
government and state veterinarians
both in England and the United
States show that from 23 to 23 per
cent of the other beef breeds re-
spond to the test for tuberculosis,
whereas for the past ten years only
4 per cent of all Herefords tested
responded. Hereford cattle are the
best grazers. There 1s no question
of Hereford supremacy here. For •
twenty years the breed has been
the favorite of the ranchmen of
the plains where grass beef was a
specialty. In England they were
developed for hundreds of years as
a grazing breed. There is no breed
that will make more beef from
grass alone than the Hereford.
struction is located, says Dr. David
Roberts in Kimball's Dairy Farmer.
In most cases there is a discharge of
saliva from the mouth. The animal
coughs frequently, and when it drinks
the water is forced back into the mouth
and dribbles out with the saliva.
The cow 'usually stops feeding. She
has an anxious expression and breathes
with difficulty owing to the fact that
she begins to bloat, caused by the re•
tention of gas in the stomach.
These symptoms, however, are not
always present, for if the obstacle
does not completely close the throat or
gullet gas or water may pass, prevent•
ing any immediate discomfort. If the
obstruction is in the neck portion of
the gullet it may be felt as n lump on
the left side of the neck. If the oh•
jest is in the throat it is advisable to
give a small portion of oil, wait a few
moments and then squeeze the obstacle
upward into the mouth, or the attend-
ant may oil his hand and pass it down
the throat far enough to grasp the for-
eign body and withdraw it gradually,
but steadily.
The presence of an obstacle or an
obstruction in the cervical portion of
the gullet may be worked forward in
the same manner, always giving a
small dose of ell regardless as to what
the obstacle may be composed of. If
it be of chaff or ground feed, by manip•
ulating the throat where the stoppage
of such material has accumulated it
will have a tendency to break it up
and cause the animal to either swallow
it or the attendant to work it upward.
In cases where the obstacle is lodged
in the chest between the lobes of the
lungs, where manipulation of the gul-
let would be impossible, it is advisable
to place a gag in the animal's mouth
and insert a probang or a half inch
rubber hose and by passing this into
the gullet and pressing gently, as there
is great danger of rupturing the gullet
in this condition, the obstacle may be
dislodged or forced into the stomach,
and as soon as it is the accumulated
gas very rapidly escapes through the
hose or probang and gives instant re-
lief to the average distressed animal..
After this relief has been given the
animal the probang or hose should be
removed gently and the animal given
soft mash or gruel drinks and shot• t
not be given any bulky food for i
least twenty-four hours, for the ren -on
that if the gullet bd lacerated and the
animal has free access to bulky rood
there is danger of dislodgment of same
in the ruptured portion of the gullet,
whereas if the animal be given a few
days' time for this laceration or exten-
sion to regain Its normal condition
there is much less denser of bad re-
sults following.

REAL, VALUE OF PLAY.
A. Brief Period Snatched From the
Regular Routine Aids Health.
Self Improvement societies that have
tried to find the best way to live have
never discovered anything more vain.
able than play, says Collier's Weekly,
A man may shake up a continent by
his energy or build kingdoms by bis
brains, but so far as his personal life
is concerned he bas been a failure if
he has not learned to play,
Play, of course, is not confined to
games. it may be a walk in the woods,
a row upon the river, a sail upon the
lake. To some making a garden is play,
as to others is chopping wood. To play

tion which gives the most pleasure
with the least mental strain and bodily
wear.
Ideal play is a brief period of care
free living snatched from the regular
routine. It is enjoying the pleasure of
being alive; it is absorbing from the
earth and air and sun without con-
scious effort. More and more we are
trying to teach the children how to
play, but we do not know how our-
selves. Before us always is the bogy
of wasting time. and the devil of dis-
ease, old age, misery and failure never
invented a falser bogy. We send our
children to the public playground and
go on ourselves getting soggy and
heavy and gloomy and nervous.

DISRAELI AS A SON.
His Generosity In Becoming Recon-
ciled to His Father.
Lord Dufferin used to tell the follow.
in; story about his mother and Dis•
raeli:
Aly mother was among the first of
Disraeli's acquaintances to recognize
els great ability, and she saw a great
deal of him when at Mrs, Norton's,
when be was a young man about town,
t;ho did not see very much of him aftef
lie had once entered upon bis political
enu•eer. Here, however, is a little anec•
dote which is very characteristic and
amusing. My mother had a great ad•
miration for the "Curiosities of Litera•
ture" and was anxious to make the as
quaintauee of Disraeli's father, but
there was a difficulty about this, as of
the moment he was not on good terms
with his father.
However, he appeared one day with
Iris father in tow. As soon as they
were both seated Disraeli turned around
•tnd, looking at his father as if he were
:t piece of ornamentalchina, said td
my mother: "Madam, I have brought
von my father. 1 have become recon
oiled to my father on two conditions.
Che first was that he should come td
see you and the second that he should
tray my debts."

Why Elizabeth Ordered Fish.
The connection between fish eating
during Lent and a strong navy may
appear remote, but to Elizabethan
statesmen it seemed very real and vi-
tal. So much so that every one should
eat fish on every day of Lent, as well
as on certain appointed days through-
out the year, under penalty of a heavy
tine. And the reasons set forth fbr this
enactment made no mention of reli-
gious observance. it was simply stated
that the queen needed shies for the
defense of the realm, and as not only
was the fishing industry 'the chiefest
nurse for the bringing up of youth for
shipping," but "great numbers of ships
be used therein, furnished with stuff
and men at all times in readiness for
her majesty's service," the consump-
tion of fish must be enforced -London
Chronicle.
A Bill That Wasn't Paid.
A medical man in France was asked
to be present at a duel in bis profes-
sional capacity. He got up early, trav-
eled some miles, "Hamed" the swords
and ministered to his client, who was
slightly wounded. When both honor
and wound were heated he looked for
his fees and sent in a bill for $10. The
patient replied through his wife, who
wrote: "I am told that between men
there is a question of delicacy which
forbids even the slightest appearance
of trade in such a matter. Neither the
doctors nor the seconds are brought on
the ground for money. If you persist
in your claim I shall, to my great re-
gret, be obliged to leave to others the
duty of settling this fine point with
you."
Domestic Repartee.
"You . will remember," said she
haughtily, "that you proposed to me
four times before 1 consented to marry
you. You wouldn't take no for an
answer."
"I remember," he replied sadly. "It
seems to me that every time you have
changed your mind I've got the worst
of it." -Exchange.

CORN
ON THE COB.
Green corn must not be considered
a cereal; it is really more of a vege-
table or fruit. It contains a large
amount of sugar, and this will be lost
if it is cooked too long.
It is quite a mistake to boil it more
than five minutes after the rapidlyboil-
ing water in which it is put to cook
comes again to the boiling point. A
good plan is to have the pot of water
boiling on the stove, and put the corn
in just before the meal begins. Have
a platter ready with a napkin laid
double on it. Watch the time, and
count the five minutes from the mom-
ent bubbles appear on the surface of
the water. Let it boil hard. Lift out
the corn with a skimmer, let it drain a
few moments on •a sieve or colander
then place on the platter, fold the nap -

Ikin over it and serve.
Do not put salt in the water in which
you cook corn -it hardens the corn and
spoils the flavor. Sugar -a small quan-
tit y -may be added if the corn is not
the genuine sweet variety. And, by
the way, hold it in a napkin in the left
hand if you wish to eat it from the cob
-do not use two hands.
A teacher had been trying to make
clear to her pupils the principle in phys-
ics that heat expands and cold contracts.
The rule was discussed in its various as-
pects and hearings, and finally the teach-
er said: -"William Brown, suppose you
give me a good example of the rule."
,"Well ma'am" answered William "In
summer, when its hot, the days are long-
er, and in winter, when it is cold, the
days are shorter.
