"Por over twenty years, I have been
troubled with Kidney Disease, and the
doctors told rue they could do nee no
good, and that I would be a sufferer for
the rest of niy life.
I doctored with different medical
men and tried niany advertised remedies,
but none of them suited my case.
Nearly a year ago, I tried "rruit-a-
tives". I have been using this fruit
medicine nearly all the time since, and
am glad to say that I am cured.

For some years past a battle has
been waged between the Union Stock
Yards, operated by a private corpora-
tion, and the city cattle market, oper-
ated by the municipality of Toronto.
The municipal market, which was es-
tablished long before the private one
was thought of, is endeavoring to hold
the trade of which it once had a mono -
ply; the other is seeking to draw this
trade away. In this struggle the pri-
vate corporation has gained a decided
lead, this success being partly due to
the advantageous situation and partly
to the fact that a private company has
advantages in efficiency of management
that a municipality with its multiplicity
of counsel and division of interest can-
not expect to equal.

TWELVE DONT'S FOR
WOMEN CHURCH -GOERS.
Don't be late; if tardiness is unavoid-
able, enter quietly and do not dis-
tu}b those about you by a noisy remov-
al of wraps, rubbers and a general get-
ting settled.
Don't wear showy clothes; a plain
tailor suit and a small hat is the cos-
tume for church.
Don't remove your gloves in church,
especially if a handful of rings is to be
displayed.
Don't glare and fuse if your seat is
occupied by strangers; the usher is
probably to blame, not the newcomers -
in Don't turn around to see who enters
the church.
Don't be remiss about offering the
prayer book or hymn book as the case
may be.
Don't neglect to pass the offertory
plate to those in the same pew, thus
making it unnecessary for them to
reach awkwardly across to it.
Don't use strong perfumes or wear
flowers with a heavy fragrance. Many
a bunch of violets, devoid of its sweet-
ness, has spoiled the service for some
one.
Don't appear in the vested choir with
several long, fancy hatpins thrust
through your mortar board cap.
Don't overdo the observance of any
religious custom sufficiently to become
conspicuous.
Don't take young children to church
unless they are trained to be quiet.
Sunday school, not a long service, is
the place for them.
Don't begin putting on wraps, etc.
before the service is entirely over.

TOBACCO'S CURATIVE POWERS.
One seldom hears of the curative
powers of tobacco any more. Once
upon a time tobacco was much used in
medicinal cases.
As an external remedy for wounds,
bruises and sprains a wet tobacco poul-
tice is highly recommended.
In sore throat, erysipelas, sciatica
and swelling of various kinds, tobacco,
externally applied, has a wonderfully
good effect. It seems to increase the
pain for a few minutes, but afterward
acts as a sedative and allays the suffer-
ing. It may take as much as two
hours to produce the soothing effect,
'but the result is usually that the suffer-
er is enabled to sleep and inflammation
entirely subsides.
Moist tobacco is one of the best cures
imaginable for the bite of any poison-
ous insect. Ordinary leaf tobacco, well
soaked, and tied over the bitten spot,
talces the pain away rapidly and brings
down the inflammation. For ordinary
cases of opthalmia or sore eyes, it is
also emcacious.

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH,
Descendants of the Germans Who Came
to This Country In 1682,
To most Americans the word "Dutch"
aieaus German. The Dutch are Hei-
I:tnders from the Netherlands. New
York was first settled by the Dutch
from Holland.
The first Germans came to this coup.
try In 1082 and settled at Germantown.
It is estimated that the Germans and
their descendants in Pennsylvania
numbered 100,000 at the time of our
revolution. The descendants of these
are called the Pennsylvania Germans
or Dutch. The word Dutch is a cor.
ruption of Deutsch, meaning German.
The early Germans were followers
of Menne Simons, known as Mennon-
ites. They wero persecuted in their
own country on account of their re.
llglous belief and when Penn offered
religious liberty It was gladly accept-
ed by them. The persecuted Germans
fame largely from the Rhenish palati.
nate, Wurtemberg, from the lower
Rhine, Alsace, Saxony and Switzer-
land.
The southeastern counties of Penn-
sylvania, such as Lancaster, York,
Berks and Lebanon, were chosen for
settlement. These settlers spoke a
variety of dialects, and, owing to seg-
regation in religious communities, they
clung to their mother tongue. English
words have since crept in and as a re-
sult we have the somewhat pictur-
esque language known as the "Penn-
sylvania Dutch." Their religious be-
lief and their common interest have
preserved this class with singular
purity. -Philadelphia Ledger.
OLD TALLY STICKS.
Their Use In England Was Abolished
With Disastrous Results.
In the museum attached to the
standards department of the board of
trade, In Old Palace yard, London,
a box containing a number of the old
exchequer tally sticks, upon which, un-
til an early period in the last century,
it was the custom to keep the national
accounts.
The tallies were notched sticks of
seasoned willow or hazel, the notch on
the edge representing the particular
amount -the smallest for ponce, a
larger notch for shillings and the larg-
est for pounds.
The system, which was first intro-
duced by the Normans in the year 1008,
was not finally abolished until the
reign of William IV., and then only
with disastrous results. An order was
promulgated that the accumulated tal-
lies, amounting to many thousands,
were to be destroyed, and they were
accordingly burned in one of the stoves
In the house of lords. By some means
or other the stove became choked, the
paneling caught fire, and in the end
the whole of the palace of Westmin-
ster, with the exception of Westmin-
ster hall, was destroyed.
Some years ago a number of these
old tally sticks were discovered in
Martin's bank, in Lombard street --

Puzzles From the Greek.
If two are a few, why not three; if
three, why not four, and by a gradual-
ly advancing increment of number why
not 10,000, or any other number? Or,
again, if the loss of a single hair does
not make a man bald, why should the
loss of two, of three, and so on, and
inferentially the loss of all?
If, then, no addition or subtraction
of a unit can transform a small num-
ber of wheat grains into a heap or a
full head of hair into a bald head, how
is it possible that either transition
should ever be accomplished?
Take a grain of millet out of a bushel
and let it fall on the ground, and it
makes no noise. Take every grain in
succession of 10,000, let the same hap-
pen, and no sound is heard. Then col-
lect all the grains back into the bushel
and pour it out, and the result is a
great noise. ]low, asks Zeno, can 10,-
000 noiseless processes make one full of
noise?

WORMS IN HOGS.
Preventive and Remedial Treatment
For Internal Parasites.
Worms are found in pastures and
around buildings $i greater or less
quantities in the embryonic stage, and
these are likely to be eaten by the pigs
and particularly so when the pigs are
fed upon the ground. This is one rea-
son why pigs should be fed upon a
cement feeding floor that can be flush-
ed off and kept clean or else upon nice
green sod, says D. A. Gaumnitz of
Minnesota Agricultural college.
Slow gains, lack of thrift, tendency
toward coughing, tendency to be
drawn up in the body, lack of appetite,
harsh appearance of the hair are all
good indications of worms.
As a preliminary to nearly all treat-
ments, pigs are usually kept off feed
from the night before until about 10
o'clock the following day, when they
are quite hungry. Then the feed, in
which is blended the remedy adopted
to remove the worms, is fed. A thin
slop of shorts and water or milk is the
most desirable medium in which to
give the medicine. No definite experi-
ments have been carried out to test
the relative efficiency of the different
remedies, but the following are somo
commonly used:
Turpentine treatment. -For every
thirty pounds of pig give one teaspoon-
ful of turpentine in the slop. Repeat:
this for three or four successive days.
Follow this with a dose of epsom salts,
about one teaspoonful for every fifty
pounds of pig. Salts can be fed in the
same manner as the turpentine. Too
extensive feeding of turpentine or too
heavy doses may result in inflamma-
tion of the intestines. Be careful
therefore. Turpentine ordinarily, how-
ever, is very effective.
Santonin Treatment. -Santonin is a
white powder and is also easily given
with the feed. One ounce is usually
sufficient for about 100 fifty pound pigs.
This powder should. be dissolved in
warm water, mixed with the slop in
the same wny as the turpentine and
followed by a physic in the same way.
Concentrated Lye. - Another very
common remedy is one teaspoonful of
lye dissolved in water. This is enough
for three pigs weighing fifty pounds
each. Pains should be taken to dis-
solve the lye very carefully and to mix
it very uniformly with the feed. This
should be fed for a couple of days in
succession, and if fed every other
week for a couple of weeks will give
results.
In all cases where pigs are being
treated for worms it is best to confine
them to a small lot well littered with
straw, so that all excrement of the
pigs, which may contain eggs of the
worms, will fall upon the straw, which
may then be raked up and burned.
Preventive Treatment -This consists
of providing a trough made up in sev-
eral compartments and placing in them
the following ingredients, forming a
composite tonic: Bone meal, two bush•
els; charcoal, three bushels; wood ash-
es, one bushel; salt, eight pounds; air
slaked lime, two quarts; copperas, one
and a half pounds dissolved in warm
water and mixed in with the other in-
gredients. This should be kept out of
the weather, but the pigs should be
given free access to it.
Remedy For Grease Heel.
For
grease heel, commonly a ,foul
emelling and disagreeable chronic die-
aase, which practically ruins the sale
of a horse, first wash the parts well
with gasoline, being careful not to per.
mit fire near. This cuts and loosens
ttie crusts, which should be wiped off
clean. Then apply daily a lotion made
of eight ounces of olive oil added to
ono ounce of salicylic acid, well shaken
together, covering all the parts dis-
eased. Cases affecting four feet on the
same horse have been cured to stay
cured with one application. This Is
also a valuable remedy for cuts, burns
or bruises on man or beast. It will re.
Bove a severe burn in two minutes. -

Lightning Tore Dress in Shreds.
At about 11.15 Monday morning the
house of John McArthur, about 3 miles
east of Edgar, was struck by lightning.
Mr. McArthur, and his eldest son Alex.
and threee young daughters were sit-
ting in the kitchen during the storm.
The lightning struck the chimney,
knocking it off the house and leaving
not a brick, Down the stovepipe the
current ran, stunned the two younger
girls and struck the eldest girl, Katy
(about seventeen years old) who was
badly hurt. The lightning hit her on
the hip, tearing her skirt to shreds and
setting fire to her clothes, tore the two
sleeves of her dress into ribbons, ripped
both her shoes completely to pieces as
though a charge of dynamite had done
the work, and burned the girl severely
about the hip, both ankles and feet,
and one arm, Alex., who was sitting on
the opposite side of the room from
Katy, had his foot severely burned, and
one gibe torn to shreds. After doing
this damage, the lightning passed into
and across the dining -room, tearing
the maple floor from end to end. The
same bolt slivered a rafter in the roof
on the opposite side of the house from
the kitchen, and splintered the frame
of the garden sixty yards from the
house. -Barrie Examiner,
Prof. Pavlov of St. Petersburg has
discovered that cold water taken into
the stomach half an hour before a meal
stimulates in such a way as to increase
the flow of gastric fluid. In most cases
of enemia, a drink of cold water taken
shortly before meal time is beneficial,
stimulating the motor activity of the
stomach and secretions.
