SENSIBLE REVIVAL
•
Doctrine .That is Being Preached by neat
People of Wingeaut.
There are all kinds of revivals, reli-
gious, inoral, and temperance, but to-
day the ebief interest seems to be in a
revival for good health, and it teams to
be the Mi•o na doctrine that has the
most adherents in Wingbam. Wipe out
indigestion and stomach troubles by us-
ing Mi-o.na tablets and moat of the
misery and ill bealth would be blotted
out of existence.
Indigestion and stomach weakness
cause headache, back ache, nervousness,
debility, sleeplessness, pains in the side
and limbs, poor appetite and a general
unhealthy state. Take one little Mi•o•na
tablet before each meal for a few days
days and will soon find that lite is ailed
with joy and health, that eating is a
pleasure and food does not cause distress,
and that your digestive organs have be-
come so strengthened that you almost be
credited with the digestion of an os-
trich.
A Iarge box of Mi•o•na stomach tab-
lets are sold for 50o, and is sucoessfnl

stomach tr ,ables. with the exoeption of

The emigrant from Great Britain who
is a failure in Canada, and deserves to
fail, has a ugly trick of vilifying his
adopted country, and now and again his
letters home -almost always intended
to elicit a remittance from sympathetic
relations -find their way into the Lon-
don press. A peculiarly disgrace speci-
men of these libelous epistles recently
appeared in the Daily Mirror, whioh
printed it ander a sensational title. Ac-
cording to the writer, who confessed
that he had found farm work altogether
unpalatable, the Canadian.farmer com-
pels his hired men to eat glandered horse,
drowned calf, baked frogs' lege and
butter, roast skunk, must•rat "baked
with their toes on," and cowhide soup,
We have seen how the farmer lives in
every part of the Dominion, from
"Tenhamat to Nootka on the Island,"
and can assure our readers that these
weird dishes never appear on the menu
of the poorest agriculturist. The writer
is a liar of the flamboyant type, and no-
body who knows that the Canadian
worker's standard of living is higher than
that of the agricultural classes in any
other country in the world will be so
foolish as to believe a word`of his letter,
which was sent to his mother with the
obvious intention of arousing her pity
and so obtaining a check or postal order
-the price of a holiday in some saloon.
Notbing this type of the exported Eng.
Nehmen can say or do would astonish ns,
bat we are amazed that a London jour-
nal of any standing should give it pub-
licity without the name of the author.
Surely this is a striking instance of the
ignorance of Canada and indifference to
Canadian interests deplored by the

One of the Queerest Trials In British
History is RecaUell d.
The charge of counterfeiting coin
preferred against a gens of men in
the Midlands recalls one of the strang-
est trials in the history of Britain's le-
gaI system.
A French refugee named Jacques du
Moulin was accused of uttering coun-
terfeit coin under very curious circum-
stances. His habits was to buy of the
customs authorities goods which had
been smuggled, then resell at a hand-
some profit. Alter the deal had been
effected he would return to his custom-
er, produce bad coins and declare that
the buyer had uttered them.
This happened following a deal with
a•anerchant of repute, who not only de-
nied the charge, but declared that Du
Moulin was himself a coiner.
The Francium -an brought an action
far defamation, and the defendiint call-
ed many witnesses to prove what had
been the practice of the suspect.
A criminal indictment was then laid
against Du Moulin, his effects were
searched, and among 'them were found
many false coins and the whole appar-
atus for counterfeit coining.
He was found guilty and sentenced
to death.
The date of the execution drew near,
and the man's doom seemed sealed.
Then a miracle happened.
A man named Williams, a seal -en-
graver, was killed in the street, sed kis
death brought his wife to the verge. of
the grave. Assured ,that she could
not recover, she confessed that her bus -
band had been one of a gang of coiners
and that Du Moulin had been their in-
nocent victim.
In Du Moutin's employ was a footman
who belonged to the gang and had been
in the habit of extracting front the
desk of his master good coins and sub-
stituting false.
It was these latter which the French-
' man had charged his customers With
palming off upon him.
Stith, there remained the. damning
evidence as to the coining apparatus tt-
• self in the possession of •the doomed
. nrnn. Title was explained by the tact
' that the footman. obtain duell-
cate keys to his master's desk, had,
when Du Moulin was arrested, feared
that he himself Wee.14 be implicated.
and, to fasten the guilt upon bis ru S -
ter, placed the entire paraphernalia in

Happily; tate whole plot Vete revealed
in time to save an innocent matins

the aim being to obtain color in such
quantity as to prove effective when
seen from a distance.
When planting bulbs in the grass
they ought to be put in places where
the grass is not to be cut until the
foliage of the plants has completed itt;
season's work. Some of the best hinds
for naturalizing in the grass are Nar-
cissus poeticus, Poeticus arnatus,
Poeticus poetrum, Narcissus princeps
and single Narcissus von Sion, crocuses
in different colors. Scilla sibirica,
snowdrops and Tulipa sylvestris,
For planting in among shrubbery
and along the outer edges of shrub-
bery borders and also in the herb*,
ceous borders many bulbs are hardy
and reliable.
Many of 'the lilies grow exceedingly
welt when planted among rhododen-
drons. Superbum and canadense are
very effective when grown this way.
The scillas are charming little bulbs
for early spring, and Scilla ca npanu-
lata and 4ts varieties which flower In
May make pleasing effects.
Bulbs have a great faculty of ad-
justing themselves to the conditions -1n
which they find themselves; hence
their popularity. But, all the same,
they give the best returns when given
the best opportunities to work In peace
and comfort, One thing that makes
the bulb easy to handle is that it is,
so to speak, fully grown before the
gardener gets it, and sole object he
has is to put out the young flower
and generally to sacrifice the bulb its
Self. Tulips, adapt themselves to al-
most any reasonable depth of plant-
ing and flourish above ground just an
well, whether deep or shallow. Hya-
cinths do not, however, and planted
too deeply will develop small, stunted
leaves. The crocus is easy, too, but has
a tendency to work up nearer to the
surface in succeeding years owing is
its method of reproduetipn, and at Iast
it reverses the process and sends ole$
"droppers," which descend and maks
the new bulb web below the surface.
Scillas do the same thing after a time.
very much to the surprise of the area
teur, who misses their presence for a
season. Reference may be made to
the accompanying diab.•am, prepared
by an authority in floral matters for
the depth to plant the various bulbs.
Generally a good rule is to plant as
deeply below the surface as the bulb
itself Is deep. But that is not an abse.

It is not the kind of a. house we -
build, but the way we build it. A
house 10'by 12 will give us 120 square
feet of floor space. Do not put twenty-
five light Brahmas in that house and
expect good results, for if you do you
will be disappointed. however, you
could put twenty Rocks or Wydndattea
in that pen or twenty-five Leghorns or
any of the smaller varieties.
If you have a flock of birds number-,
ing over 100, divide them into lots of
not more than twenty-five, then you
can watch then better, took after thele
and pick out the drones.
In building- this fall try to arrange
the size of your houses so as not„to
waste much lumber. A good house is
one seven. and one-half few high be
front and four and one-half in the rear.
This will take a. twelve foot board, and
all that is lost is the sawdust. The
greater economy we use In the business
the larger the profits area
Provide at least six square feet of
room in each pen per bird and at Ieast
100 square feet per bird in the yards.
Build your houses damp, proof, but
have plentyof sunlight and provide for'
the Circulation of air. Avoid direct•
drafts on the birds.
lI the ground upon which your house
is built is low, provide board floors,
although earth floors are better if they
can be bad dry. -N. A. Icing in Ameri-

Soft.Shelled Eggs.
Farm Poultry has some good sugges-
tions in a recent issue about eggs. Inc
regard to sort shells it says the hens
get either insulUoient shell forming mat
terial'or the egg organs are deranged.
We incline to the latter opinion. In
one case we know positively same hens
do not lay at all. Careful Watch of a
doubtful hen some years ago proved It.
When killed she showed some incipient
eggs, but otherwise was a mass of fat,
The only noticeable thing about her
was her alternate e7teltenieitt and slog
glshness and a deep posterior. --•Poultry,,

The Checkrein.
Use the checkrein with o. little can' -
