The Gurney-'i-rford Range is the sums total of 70 years experience in stove construction. It is a big, up -standing, handsome stove, that works constantly and unfailingly for its owner's satisfaction. It stands guard over her interests, conserving her time and energy, .effecting a daily saving in coal, adding to the household economy and increasing the pleasure which comes frons a smooth -running and well -ordered household. That's why she enthusiastically recommends the Gurney- xfortd whenever the question comes up. She wants her friends to learn, what she knows to be a fact, that a Gurney -Oxford Range is a good housewife's most valuable and cherished possession. W. J. BOYCE, Wingham.

He's the nicest boy I knew. IIe never swears nor says naughty words and he goes to Sunday school every Sunday, and he al- ways lifts his cap when he speaks to old gentlemen." "That doesn't make any difference. I don't want you to have anything more to do with him. His folks have an automobile that has to be cranked up in front before they can start it." When you have a bad cold you want th.e. best medicine obtainable so as to ware it with as little delay as possible. Here is a druggist's opinion: 'I have ;old Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for fifteen years," says Enos Lollar of Sar- atoga, Ind., "and c on:,ider it the best en the market." For sale by all deal- ers- A Million Dollars Saved. The annual replacement of cross -ties 'n Canadian railway lines is about 10,- ce00,0G0, according to statistics compiled y the Forestry Branch of the Depart- ment of the Interior. The average life ;:f a tie, i. e., seven years, could be prolonged to seventeen years if proper sreservative treatment were adopted, and an annual saving of 350 million neet, board measure, of timber, could be affected. This is equivalent to three years' cut of one of the very largest hills in the country. While the initial expense of creaeoting would bring the cost per tie from 58 to 93 cents it would - save $1,400,000 annually. Since 1910 two timber -treating plants have been established, treating, in 19I1 200,209 ties, or 1.5 per cent. of the total cut. The number of ties purchased in the Dominion in 1911 was 13,683,7'10, an in- erease of 4.469,808, or 48.5 per cent. over 1910. The rapid development of railways in the Western Provinces is largely responsible for this increase. Eighteen kinds of wood were used. Jack pine, with 40 per cent; tamarack, with 19 per cent; Douglas fir (need to a very great extent in new electric lines in British Columbia) with 14 per tient., and hemlock, with 12 per cent., ',were the leader:. A remarkable change is that of ec'dar, in decreasing from 40 per cent. to (.4 per cent. of the total. 5t' G-nsued 3i; e,ne Mrs. George Bradshaw, Harlowe, Ont., writes: "I was troubled for many years with weak, watery blood and dropsy. I had nervous headaches, dizzincea and sinking spells, and was, in fact, a semi -invalid. Doctors told nie my heart and kidneys were diseased and gave me up. By using 10 boxes of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food I have been cured of many of my old complaints and gained 36 pounds in weight." Modelled after the University of Toronto, a university and various resi- dential colleges will be founded by the Methodists of Canada and the United States, the Baptists of the United Stat- es, and the Friends of England, at Chengtu, the centre of the West China mission field. THE SUMMER COMPLAINT OF INFANTS Cholera infantum begins with a pro. fuse diarrhoea, the stomach becomes irritated, and in many cases vomiting and purging set in. The child rapidly loses flesh, and is soon reduced to great langour and prostration. Cholera infantum can be quickly cured by the use of Dr. Bowler's Extract of 'Wild Strawberry. Mrs. David A. Cleve- land, Apple River, N.5., writes: -"Last September my little boy, four years old, and little girl, two years old, were taken one afternoon"with vomiting spells, and in a few hours they had cholera infantum. I had Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry in the house, and commenced tt:;ing it. The cholera got so bad the 'text day, they passed nothing but blood. I kept on using the medicine, and in a few trays they were cured, 1 always keep a bottle in the house, as I don't think there is anything better for summer complaint than Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strafe. berry." Some dealers may try to sell you something else, but for the good of your Child's health, insist on having "Dr, Fowler's." It has been en the market for over sixty -free years, so you are not tieing a new and untried remedy. Trice 35 cents. Manufactured only by The T. Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. PEPTONIZED MILK. This is often prescribed for an invalid. One-half pint of milk, one-quarter 'pint of water, one dessertspoonful of liquor pancreatieus, twenty of blear- bonat), of soda. I Put the milk and water into an enam- dlled stewpan, heat it to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, pour it into a wide- mouthed sterilized bottle containing the liquor pancreaticus and bicarbonate of soda. Cover the bottle and let it stand in a warm but not hot place for one •hour. Then bring to a boil to prevent tate bitter taste becoming too much de- velops d. Milk prepared in this way can be used for various dishes, or it may be served as ordinary milk either hot or cold. It can be made in about one and one-half hours. Soups and gruels may be peptonized in the same manner. A cook's thermometer is valuable to have and use to test the degrees neces- sary to properly follow a recipe and at- tain the best results, especially in cook- ery for invalids, strict attention must he paid to the grade of heat required.

Dy placing a few lumps of loaf sugar in the oven nearest the fire when bak- ing pastry the top crusts will cook a lovely brown. Try dipping your pork chops and pork tenderloin in flour before frying them, and see how delicious they are. A combination of nutmeg and cinna- mon makes a nice flavoring for plain cookies, while nutm:'g and mace delic- ious in buns. In poaching eggs stir the water till it is whirling rapidly. Then drop your egg in quickly, end the edges will be round and smooth. To scald milk, set it in a jug or basin in a pan of cold water over -the fire. When the water boils the milk is scald- ed. When mixing mustard for table use, it is much improved if milk instead of water is used, and a small pinch of salt is added to it, brings out the flavor. If a lemon is plumped by being plung- ed into hot water just before squeez- ing it the juice will flow much more freely. Shredded red cabbage and white cel- ery cut fine make a very popular salad in one family. Sprinkle the top of the salad with a tablespoonful of minced onion and dress with oil and vinegar. if you have young children you have perhaps noticed that disorders of the stomach are their most common ail- ment. To correct this you will find Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tab- lets excellent. They are easy and pleas- ant to take, and mild and gentle in effect. For sale by all dealers. HINTS FOR HOUSEKEEPERS. Clean oilcloth with skimmed milk or milk and water; soap will ruin it. Linoleum or paint on the kitchen floor saves many hours of needless work.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies, Deafness is caused by an inflamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube is in- flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition` hearing will be des- troyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the muc- ous surfaces.

Out in western Kansas one still fre- quently sees an old plainsman drive in- to town covered with a buffalo overcoat or a buffalo lap robe in the winter time, says the Kansas City Journal. how- ever buffalo robes are becoming very scarce, and in a few years they will en- tirely disappear. There was a time when Kansas furnished buffalo robes for the world. No well -regulated fam- ily on an eastern farm was without one. They were not only very warm but reasonable in price. It was the Raw Indians who first marketed buffalo robes. Later, manufacturers, seeing the vast profit in them, made them by the thousands, and supplied the world. But the manufactured or patent tanned robe did not last as long as the robes tanned by the Indians. In fact„ it is said that the robes now in service were those tanned by the Indians many years before the white man began to tan them. The Indian women did the tan- ning. They fastened the green hides to a set of frames just like grandmother used to fasten her quilts to, when she made them. The sqaws would then take a blunt instrument, resembling a hoe, and work off all the flesh and membrane from the hide. They called it "fleshing." Then they would rub the skin for several days with a heavy, smooth-st rfaced club, until all the grease had been driven out of the hide. They used no chemicals at all in tanning. Only hides from buffaloes killed late in the winter were used in making robes, as the fur was then heaviest. Before the Kaws threw the robes on the mar- ket they used them in making moccas- ins and winter clothing, also for cover- ing for their tepees. But when a mar- ket was established for them and the Indians would get real money, or real food, or real whiskey for them, buffalo tepees soon disappeared from thereser- vation.
