In hundreds of other uses, "Fruit -a- fives" has given exactly the same satis- factory results because "Fruit-a-tives" is the greatest blood purifying medicine in the,worid.

HOW RELICS ARE FAKED. A easeful observer who has disited many of the world's greatest battle- fields declares that the greatest part of the mementoes, of which there seeins to be an inexhaustible supply, are wholly spurious; but so well are they simulated that the average visitor is content. Pieces of shell are made by casting hollow spheres and cracking them with a sledge. The fragments are' then treated to a bath of anted nitric acid and allowed to gather rust in the open air. The appearance of verdigris is easily procured, when desired, by the use of copper in solution. The writer was shown several basketfuls of pieces of shell, all of which seem to be at least thirty or forty years old. The acid has slightly honeycombed the edges, and they Iooked exactly as if corroded by long burial beneath the soil. Such trifles as single bullets and minie balls are made with the greatest ease in an ordinary mould. They are dented with a small hammer and given the requisite discoloration by remaining for a few days in a bucket of lime. The more elaborate relics, such as sword belts, spurs, pieces of harness, bayonets, can- teens, and so on, are turned out by in- dividual workmen, who make a good profit out of the business. EXCURSIONS TO WESTERN CANADA. The Grand Trunk Railway System announce that on Tuesdays, June 13th and 27th, July llth and 25th, August 8th and 22nd, September 5th and 19th, 1811, Homeseekers' Excursions will be run from all Stations in Ontario and Quebec to Western Canada, via Chicago and.Duluth or via Chicago, St. Paul and Minneapolis, at reduced round trip fares. The well-known double track line of the Grand Trunk from the East to Chi- cago appeals to the traveller, and with the superior tram service that is offer- ed by this line, including the famous "International Limited" from Mont- real daily at 9 a. m., and which is the finest and fastest train in Canada, many passengers will be attracted this way. The route via Chicago is a most interesting one, taking passengers through the principal cities and towns in Canada and in the States of Michi- gan and Indiana. In addition to this a, ehclice of seven lines between Chicago and St. Paul and Minneapolis is offered. Owing to the great number of Cana- dians who reside in Chicago,. Minne- apolis, Duluth and other cities en route, there is no doubt that the Grand Trunk will find many patrons . who will take advantage of the opportunity thus af- forded them for a brief visit at the stations with their friends. Canadian citizens are exempt from so-called Immigration Examination, and there is no detention at any point, Baggage is carried through the Unit- ed States in bond without requiring any special attention on the part of the passenger. Inspection is not necessary at any of the points at the border. Another feature that will appeal to the homeseeker is the comfortable transfer at points like Chicago, St. Pat and Duluth u nth into freshly ventilated elean ears, avoiding the necessity of travelling a long distaneo in the same ear. In addition to the above routes, the sale of tickets is also authorized via Sarnia, and the e or hexn Na vi ati on Ccan rs mag1iifiCe t Steamers across Lake Huron and"Lake Superior. For further particulars apply to any Agent of the Grand Trunk Railway Systdptn, et write to Mr. J, Quinlan, District Passenger Agent, rioneVe »tore Malign. Montreal, or Mr. A. D. Duff, District Passenger Agent; Union Sta- ion, Toronto. lir PERT PARAGRAPHS.

The postotliee department, at the. Suggestion or Fourth Assistant Post - Muster General i', V. DeGraw, has is- sued circulars to postmasters from whose offices rural routes aro served, as ,well as those whose offices are not far distant therefrom, informing them that it is the desire of the depart- meat that all patrons of rural delivery be urged to set up newt posts to which their mail boxes should be attached and to paint both boxes and posts wbite. This, It Is argued, will tend to secuto uniformity and at the same time to serve notice that the box is under the protection of the laws which regulate the mail service. In' addition, the pa- trons are urged to paint their names and box numbers iii black letters two inches high on the boxes. Tills will serve the same purpose as the fritnt door plate in the city and ,make it easy to find • any patron living along the line of a rural route. Postmasters are further urged to en- deavor to induce county and other of- ficials to paibt on the posts support- ing the boxes located at crossroads the names of toe towns or villages to which the roads lead and an arrow M :TROD OF MOUNTING RURAL MAIL BOXES tECO1ii;tENDeD BY poaTOFFIex DEPART- MENT. tudicating the direction. Signs will nut be permitted to be attached to tho pots, but the guiding directions are to be painted in black letters on the posts, As the posts to which the mail boxes are to be attached must ,bel set in au easily accessible position. so as to facilitate the work of the rural car- rier, the department recommeuds that the boxes be fastened to a projecting arm of wood or to a bracket of band iron about three -sixteenths of an inch thio. or, if preferred. an automatic extension arm may be used. In speaking of the •subject General DeGraw says: "We want our rural posts and 'boxes to look as thougb they really represented n government service. This will do more to protect them from marauders than anything else. Then. again. with the names of the box owners and the town and vil-' Cage guide directions in\plain view one can find his way as easily on a coun- try rural route as in tbe city, where numbers and door plates on the,,, houses and street names on the lamp- posts are indispensable to •strangers in finding their way." OATS AND CANADA PEAS. Best Green Crop to Follow Clover. Sow Early In Spring. In his bulletin on green crops for summer soiling .1. B. Lindsey of the Massachusetts station says -that oats and Canada field peas make the best green crop to follow clover. Generally it is advisable to make three sowings, the first early as possible in the spring, the second and third fifteen and thirty days later. Cue and one-half bushels each of the oats and peas is the usual quantity to the acre. They both may be sown broadcast at the same time after the land is plowed aad thoroughly har- rowed in with a wheel harrow, or the peas may be first sown and four or. five days later the oats, the latter be- ing covered with an Acme or similar harrow. The first sowing will be ready about June 25, and the cutting should begin as soon as the oats show the head. The average yield from the second and thi rdowin i' s gs s likely to be heavy, as the crop matures more quickly dur- ing warm weather. Oats and peas will remain in condition to cut for tea or twelve days. The average cow will consume from fifty to eighty pounds daily until that feed becomes tough. Ono -third of an idcre will generally furnish ten cows with sufficient green teed for twelve days. This is $gored on a basis from forty to fifty pounds per day In the case of Average ailed cows, with ten pounds of bay, Professor Lindsey does not consider it wise to feed more than this amount of eoare0 green Ueda daily for the rea- son . that anxC e ass products an e1k- ceedingly laxative condition of h. the bowels, A 1 s fed trial i n excels Of fifty pounds are likely to 'become noticeabl thin ill fesh.

' it does Pot pay to carefaf fly prepare land for a crop and then sow seed that lacks in vitality and a large percentage of which will not grow. The principal seeds which should be tested before using are clo- ver, alfalfa and corn. It is a sample matter to do this and ane that should be attended to before spring's work begins. The accompanying illustration shows. a homemade seed tester which can be inane of two pie ties or two ordi- nary table plates and two pieces of Muslin. If alfalfa seed is to be tested. ,e �t liLH/r4J'1/Ja�n� u..

The plates should be kept in a reasonably warm room, and each day open the plates and lift the cover cloth, In a few days, all the good seeds will be sprouted. By counting the un - sprouted seeds and noting the charac- ter of the sprouts of all the seeds a person will know the percentage of germinable seed and the vitality of the seed. In testing corn faster work can be done with a larger tester and divided into small squares. each large enough to hold three kernels of seed. Each square should be numbered so it can be easily designated from which enr the kernels are taken. The principles of the larger tester are the same RS the one herewith illustrated, When corn is tested it is customary to take three kernels front an ear. one from tip, one frotn the renter and the other from the butt. Ears showing a low ,germination test and weak in vitality should be discarded.—Hoard's Daery- man, HER EGGS HIGHEST YET. Aeroplaning Hen Produces Them In thethe Air Every Day. An up to date bantam hen residing near New York has taken to aviation, but combines business and sport. To say she lays while she tiles Sounds paradoxical, but is true. A rustic hanging basket In her mis- tress' grape arbor was spied by the aspiring bantam one day last week. Sbe flew up, and the impetus she gave the basket set It swinging like a pen- dulum. The hen enjoyed the flight in the monoplane so greatly that she paid her fare by depositing an egg in the basket. Since then she has taken a flight every day and has laid an egg every time. Omelets are light as air when made from these aerial eggs. Biddy's owner intends to raise chickens in mid -at- mosphere, as she thinks they might bring high prices.

The accommodation in the hospitals is ever. taxed by 100, and there are 164 appli- cations on file for admission. The total admissions during the year ending Qct - ober 81, 1910, were 1,140, and those discharged numbered 555. The revenue from all sources amount- ed to $$11,146, $109,194 df this being from municipalities, $168,914 from pay- ing patients, $10,875 from farm and miscellaneous sources, and 822,162 was received from paying patiesnts in the hospitals for feeble minded and epilep- tics. The Secretary's department has acted as administrator of estates for nearly a thousand persons, the total capital represented being more than $150,000. Twenty-eight insane patients and 90 criminals have been deported, while 21 remain as a public charge, awaiting deportation. r Misfit Humor. There are divers times and seasons when for sundry .human reasons man would rather nurse his sorrow than to listen to a jest; when emotions senti- mental and reflections incidental claim possession of his headpiece and his broad and manly breast. There are moments when he's weary of this world that's passing dreary, and he wants to sit in silence thinking thought's that s"hir ell of smoke; and ,at such a bitter season someone fit for spoils and treas- on nearly always comes to jar him with a punk and pallid joke. I have sat, to sad to frolic, with my stomach full of colic, drinking yarb tea from a dipper, while I sweated blood and swore; and a joker came and found me, told a string of yarns around me, till I smote him with the fig tree that was growing by my door. I have sat, of hope denuded, sat alone and mourned and brooded, for the scads I staked on Jeffries just a little year ago, and an aleck then nar- rated witticisms antiquated, heedless of my tears of anguish, blind to all my carking woe!
