The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh 'being a constitional disease, requires a consti- tutional remedy. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly up- on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constition and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to eure. Send for list of testimonials, Address: F. J.

One will open hear a farmer remark that his cows are about as good as the average run, It generally turns out that all he knows about it is that he has fed and milked and received suffi- cient money to keep the wolf from the door. The question is, "What is an average cow?" The champion cows of the four dairy breeds have been tested yearly at experimental stations, and their records range from 800 to, nearly 1,200 lbs. of butter in twelve months, or a possible average of say 000 lbs. a year for that class of cow. Again, the sworn returns show that in the United States the yield of all the cows i r the land is between 100 and 150 lbs. per annum. Where is the average? If this latter is the average it is not good enough for the farmer, because he is only get- ting about one-tenth of the profit of his feed. With so much difference in the use made of feed, a bunch of above the medium cows will deliver the goods with half to quarter the amount of feed used to produce the same amount of milk that the "average" cow yields.

THOROUGHLY WARMED. , An Old Time Schoolboy's Experience on a Bitterly Cold Day. An old time gentleman of Newbury port, describing his school days in the opening years of the nineteenth cen- tury, bas this to say of a wintry day:, "We found our inkstands all frozen up. These required to be thawed out To do this there was a board held up by bricks over the stove on which the pewter inkstands were placed, but be- fore the copy was written down the ink would be again frozen. Then the boy took his ink to the stove again and while it was thawing laid in a store of caloric for himself, standing by the stove, watching closely that the pewter should not melt "The clothes of the boys were made of corduroy, jacket and trousers in one, and nothing under but a shirt. These absorbed the heat like sheet iron, so that when a boy retruned to his seathe was often compelled.to crlrr his .

This modern Crusade, like the one of old, is >t winnin fight. The death rate from Consumption in this province shows a decrease of• over 25 % in. the past few years. Nearly 6000 of these poor sufferers have been cared for in .our Consumptive Honies in Muskoka and near Weston.

Our Trustees, having faith in the generous -hearted people of Canada, have continued to carry on this work during the past year.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh 'being a constitional disease, requires a consti- tutional remedy. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly up- on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constition and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to eure. Send for list of testimonials, Address: F. J.

And don't think how much you have to clo to -morrow. Nor of „all the things you have ne- glected today, Leave your worried with your clothes on the chair. Have fresh night clothes and sheets as often as possible. Cultivate lazy evenings with a short walk followed by a warm bath before getting into bed, An exciting book. an attempt to fin - IA off some of the day's work, or an engrossing game of cards just before bedtime often means a number of sleepless hours. A eup of beef tea or warm milk be- fore retiring helps one to fall asleep easily.

A Word of Gratitude. "In justice to humanity I want to tell you that I was a great sufferer from itching piles, and have found Dr. Chase's Ointment the hest treatment obtainable," writes! Mr; Fred Hinz, Brodhagen, Ont. "It gives instant re- lief and I can recommend it to any suf- ferer from this dreadful disease." THE AVERAGE COW. One will open hear a farmer remark that his cows are about as good as the average run, It generally turns out that all he knows about it is that he has fed and milked and received suffi- cient money to keep the wolf from the door. The question is, "What is an average cow?" The champion cows of the four dairy breeds have been tested yearly at experimental stations, and their records range from 800 to, nearly 1,200 lbs. of butter in twelve months, or a possible average of say 000 lbs. a year for that class of cow. Again, the sworn returns show that in the United States the yield of all the cows i r the land is between 100 and 150 lbs. per annum. Where is the average? If this latter is the average it is not good enough for the farmer, because he is only get- ting about one-tenth of the profit of his feed. With so much difference in the use made of feed, a bunch of above the medium cows will deliver the goods with half to quarter the amount of feed used to produce the same amount of milk that the "average" cow yields.

THOROUGHLY WARMED. , An Old Time Schoolboy's Experience on a Bitterly Cold Day. An old time gentleman of Newbury port, describing his school days in the opening years of the nineteenth cen- tury, bas this to say of a wintry day:, "We found our inkstands all frozen up. These required to be thawed out To do this there was a board held up by bricks over the stove on which the pewter inkstands were placed, but be- fore the copy was written down the ink would be again frozen. Then the boy took his ink to the stove again and while it was thawing laid in a store of caloric for himself, standing by the stove, watching closely that the pewter should not melt "The clothes of the boys were made of corduroy, jacket and trousers in one, and nothing under but a shirt. These absorbed the heat like sheet iron, so that when a boy retruned to his seathe was often compelled.to crlrr his . Ink- stand in his., mouth, em t f Ing;"both bands to hold his trots,, bis knees, and with ev 4 k than the skin was often • mo . d scorched." Another old ''' , ' eolboy in his later years recalled 11% even severer ex- perience. "I can remember," he recorded, "how, crowding close to the stove to toast the shivers from my poor little body, r_ scorched a hole in my trousers in front and exclaimed aloud at the dis- aster, whereupon the master thrash- ed a hole into them behind, and when I went home to my mother she told Me grimly it was well that things should match and that as my shirt was. :such an old one she was willing to risk fraying it on the back, and she reached for strap and did! • "I was thoroughly warmed, and it was the coldest day of the year, but 1 ;regretted my shivers after Youth's Companion.

MEANING OF THE CROSS This cross (in red) has been adopted in Canada and all over America as the emblem under which the Crusade against Consumption is .carried on. Every reader knows of the ravages of this disease; how, too often, the bread -winner of the family falls a victim or the young man or youngwoman,with a promise of a happy and useful p life, is stricken down. This modern Crusade, like the one of old, is >t winnin fight. The death rate from Consumption in this province shows a decrease of• over 25 % in. the past few years. Nearly 6000 of these poor sufferers have been cared for in .our Consumptive Honies in Muskoka and near Weston. To -day we have 300' patients under treat- ment—patients reat-ment– atientswho, if they had the Could not through fear of contagion gain admittance into other hospitals, In the Muskoka Free Hospital alone we are now caring for 156 patients. 128 of these cannot pay a single cent for the cost of their maintenance, 15 pay` 70c. per day, 1 pays 57c, per day, 12 pay 50c. or less per day. Our Trustees, having faith in the generous -hearted people of Canada, have continued to carry on this work during the past year. Money to pay doctors, food, nursing and caring of these sick ones, is urgently needed. Will your roaders help and have the joy of sharing in a work that has the promise of the Master's reward? W, J.
