KEEP LITTLE ONES •
WELL IN WINTER
Winter is a dangerous season .for
the little ones. The days are so
changeable—one clay bright, the next
cold and stormy, that the, mother is
afraid to take the children out for the
fresh air and exercise they need so
mach. In consequence they are often
cooped up in overheated, badly venti-
lated rooms and are 80011 seized with
cold or grippe. What is needed to
keep the little ones well is Baby's
Own Tablets. They will regulate the
stomach and bowels and drive out
cold, and by their use the baby will
be able to get over the winter season'
in perfect safety. The Tablets are
sold by..medicine dealers or by mail
at 25 cents a box from -rhe Dr. Wil-
liam' Medicine Go:, Brockville, Ont.

knife or 'hatchet, and then the blood
carefully washed off, the skin drawn

After the carcass leaves the hands
of the poultryman, and is on its way'
to market, it passes beyond his con,

distance to 'go, it may mold inside.
Even if a fly does not "blow" in it,
there is a large exposed surface hid-

Investigations made by the United
States Department of Agriculture

$25:00 FOR A LETTER

Thirteen Prizes to be Awarded
In a Letter Writing
Competition.
SHOULD FOWL BE DRAWN?
It is the general practice now for
poultry .dealers to instruct producers
of table fowl to ship -dead stock un-
drawn. This has been tire subject
of much discussion among consum-
ers as well as dealers and various
opinions and reasons 'have been me -
proud on the subject according to
the . taste or experience of the " indi-
.vidual. Of course the fresh killed
bird is,.the ideal food hut this can-
, not always be had so the question of
the best msetItod of dressing is a
praet=ieal one, from the standpoint of
health as well at 'enjoyment of the
food consumed. There are strong
arguments on both sides.
• Dr. D. T. Woods, some years ago,'used a strong argument' against
drawing market poultry. "In deal-
ing with Market poultry we have to
deal with many unknown factors,"
says Dr. 'wood. "So far as I am
concerned, I would rather take my

Some years ago the Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., of Brockville, Ont., of-
fered a series of prizes to residents
of the' Province of Ontario for the
best letters describing the benefits de-
rived from the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, either in the case of the
writer of the letter, or some member
of the writer's family. Hundreds of
letters were eubmitted in this compe-
tition, and yet there must have been
thousands of other users of the pills
who did not avail themselves of the
opportunity to win a prize.. To all
these another letter writing competi-
tion is offered. There are thousands
who have experienced great benefit
from the use of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, whose cases have never been
reported. These will furnish the .ma-
terial for the letters to 'be written
in this contest. There is no demand
upon the imagination; every letter
must deal with facts and facts only.
The Prizes.
-The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., of
Brockville, Ont, will award a prize
of $25.00 for the best letter received
on or before the 15th day of Febru-
ary, 1922, from residents of the Pro-
vince of Ontario on the subject: "Why
I Recommend Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills." A prize of $10.00 will be a-
warded for the second best letter
received; a prize of $5.00 for the
third best letter and ten prizes of
$2.00 each for the next best ten let-
ters.

Choosing Brides for Parks.
Marriage In Turkey is a very pro-
saic affair, it being in a majority of
cases quite a business matter. When
a man wishes to wed, his parents ob-
tain a list of houses where eligible
girls are to be found, and the mother
then calla at these. .
"What can your daughter do?" she
asks, whereupon embroideries, car-
pets, ruga, etc., are exhibited as evi-
dence of the girl's handiwork. If
these are approved by the mother,
she takes the goods home to her son
and induces him to marry the clever
young woman.
If, on the other hand, she does
not think much of the work, she
makes some diplomatic excuse, and
passes on to another house on the
list. If, however, the young man is
not liked by the girl's parents, the
mother is advised to seek elsewhere.,
In Sweden and Norway, a legal
marriage at one time was not allow-
ed to be solemnized until both parties
had produced certificates stating that
they bore genuine vaccination marks.
Some of the older houses in Hol-
land have two doors, which are used
for marriages and deaths only. By
one door the bride and groom enter,
and through the other they are car-
ried Out when dead.

SilkPurse From Sow's Ear.
"You can't make a silk purse from
a sex's ear," says the old proverb.
Can't you? Ask Dr. A. D. Little, the
scientist.
The silk which the silk -worm gives
us Is a gummy substance made into
a fine thread by being squeezed
through a tiny orifice. It consists
chiefly of cellulose, which figures
very largely in the structure of all
animals and plants. Glue is one form
of cellulose.
Some years ago chemists discover-
ed that excellent silk could be made
from the cellulose of wood. But
Dr. Little has gone one better. He
did not like the proverb, so he de-
cided to prove that it was untrue.
A pig's ear consists very largely of
gristle, which is rich to cellulose. He
obtained dne from a sow, boiled it
down into glue, and then refined the
product. His next process was to
turn it into fine threads by squeezing
Is through very small holes. He found
that he had a supply of first-class
silk.
Next the silk was spun into yarn.
Then it wee woven and shaped into a
purse. The proverb becomes a back
number; a silk purse has been made
from a sow's ear!
Germany Lenient.
When William II, fell the Hohen-
zollern income was about $4,000,000
a year. Since then the republic has
been busy liquidating the Immense
family fortune. Kurt Hetnig has
written a book, "Hohenzollern," on
the subject, and he certainly "pans"
his former emperor. The biggest
count is the enormous food hoard
found igcfhe palace at Berlin by the
revolutionaries. At a time when Ger-
many was starving Wilhelm had en-
tire rooms tilled from floor to ceil-
ing with tons of food. The poldiers
who broke into the palace and oc-
cupied its for two months found
enough for their needs during all
that time. Afterwards there was still
sufficient for providing hospitals and
other institutions with foodstuffs in
large lots.
Hetnig thinks that the $6,000,000
paid by the republic since then to
keep the old gang going has been
more than generous. Wilhelm and
his little Willie kept continually
howling for more and threatened
that 1f they did not get It they might
have to return to Germany. The
threat has always proved sufficient.
A Greek Temple.
Greek archaeologists have un-
earthed an imposing temple at Rer-
ras, Thesaaly, The structure is in an
excellent state of preservation and is
said to be as large as the temple of
Jupiter at Olympia. The 'bronze in-
scriptions establish the date as that
of 400 B.C. Tablets have also been
found bearing indications of laws and
resolutions of ancient civilization.
This is the second temple discovered
within a month, the first haring been
