If the truth was only known you would find that over one half of the ills of life are caused by allowing the bowels to get into a constipated condition, and the sole cause of constipation is an inactive liver, and'ui+lee' the liver is kept active you may rest assured that headaches, jaundice, heartburn, piles, floating speeka before the eyes, a feeling as if you were going to faint, or catarrh of the stomach will follow the wrong action of this, one of the most important organs of the body. Keep the lives active and working properly by the use of Milburn's:T,axa- Liver Pills. Miss Rese Babineatt, Amherst, N.S., writes;" "Having been troubled for yearswith constipation, and trying various so-called remedies, which did me no good whatever, I was persuaded to try Milburn's Lae Liver Pills, I have found them most benclicial, for they are indeeda splendid pill.

SPRING REMINDERS Of RHEUMATISM liar, Damp Weather Starts the Pains, But the Trouble Lies in the Blood. Spring weather is bad for rheu- matic sufferers. The changes from. mild to cold, the raw, damp winds start the aches and twinges, or in the more extreme cases, the tor- tures :of the trouble. But it must be borne in mind that it is not the weather that causes rheumatism. The trouble is rooted hi the biooe -the changeable weather merely starts the pains The only way to leach the trouble and to cure it is through the 'blood. The poisonous rheumatic acids must be driven out Liniments arad rubbing may give temporary relief, but cannot ,pos- sib1Y Cure the trouble. The surfer- er is only wasting time and moneyV with this kind of treatment ,and all the time ,the trouble is becom- ing more deeply rooted• -harder to cure, There' is just one apeeay cure far rheumatism --Dr. Williatus' Pink pills.

Everything in the henhouse should be movable—nests, roosts, dust boxes, ete. This gives an easy chance to fight vermin and also give the house a thorough cleaning. The old practice of nailing nests, roosts, and all Exturos to the building was a bad mistake, and there is no wonder that lice re-gned supreme. The above cut shows a novel nest method. Ordinary boxes are used. These are so placed that the lower box provides a platform for the upper nest, upon unties the hens can easily alight. These nests are readily taken outdoors and thoroughly cleaned. The illustration gives the idea very clearly. ---Farm Journal, Children Cry /� FOR FLETCHER'S CAi..9-�' T•OFIA
