For no matter how much or how little cooking k done; no matter what the experience

cook be a professional chef of the young bride with only hint” to please, the stove must
furnish these three essentials--eteadintes and control of heat, even baking facilities. and a

Fifty Years Ago.
Fifty years ago Lord Palmerston
was Prime Minister of Great Britain,
the Prince Consort died, King Edward
came of age, Thackeray was editing
Cornhill, Victor Hugo, was writing
his famous novel, Les Miserables, the
Civil War was raging in the United
States and Abraham Lincoln was
wrestling to save the Union. Europe
was disturbed from the Baltic to the
Mediterranean, France was in Rome
and Austria in Venice, Mazzini and
Garibaldi were striving to unite Italy.
In England as a result of the civil war
in the United .States shutting out
aupplies there was the cotton famine,
controversies about wooden ships
versus ironclads, about the income-
tax, Churcb rates, and the Thames
Embankment.
Where Money Is Lost.
The greatest source of loss in the
datir•y industry is the feeding of un-
profitable cows. For example :—A
certain cheese factory in one year
paid one of its patrons $879 for the
product of eight cows, while it gave
another patron $9 less, or $868, for
the milk from 22 cows. The latter
d itryman boarded nearly three times
as many cows as the other to get less
gross return. In another locality
s rme herd owners secured an average
of 300 pounds of butter fat per cow,
while others at the same place and in
tine same time averaged only 80 lbs,
par cow. An income of $100 per cow,
as in the better herd, gives some
margin for profit, but how can $20 a
head result in anything but loss ?
Probably some animals in the poor
herds mentioned were profitable pro-
ducers, but it is safe to say that .the
owners would have been better off at
the end of the year if, before the year
began, they had carefully studied
their cows and sold one-half of them.
It is probable also that in the better
herds some weeding out might have
been done to advantage, for great in-
dividual differences are found even in
teeeed herds bred for years along one
lice of productivity. Tntil the feeder
knows his cows through the scales and
the Babcock test, lee can never claim
to be doing a dairy "business," he is
meeely doing dairy "guess work,"
and may be feeding into Polly all the
profits he should make from Bess and
Spot.
Tea stains will disappear from the
finest damask if well rubbed with gly-
cerine and then washed with soap and
water. Another way is to first soak
the stain in cold water, then sprinkle
with powdered borax and allow to
stand. Thad use clear boiling water
but never soap, as the soap will set
the tannin and coloring matter in the
stain and it will never come out.

A GREAT DISCOVERY.
Certain Ingredlent$ That Really
Promote Hair Growth When
Properly Combined.
Rosanne is one of the most effective
germ destroyers ever discovered by
science, and in conisection with Beta
Napthol which is both germicidal and
antiseptic, a combination is formed
which deetoys the germs which rob
the hair of its natural nourishment,
and also creates a clean, healthy con-
dition of the scalp, which prevents the
development of new germs,
Pilocarpin, although not a coloring
matter or dye, is a well-known ingre-
dient for restoring the hair to its
natural color, when the loss of hair
has been caused by a disease of the
scalp.
These ingredients in proper com-
bination, with alcohol added as a
stimulant and for its well-defined
nourishing properties, perfect perhaps
the most effective remedy that is
known for scalp and hair troubles.
We have a remedy which is chiefly
composed of these ingredients, in com-
bination with other extremely invalu-
able medicinal agents. We guarantee
it to positively cure dandruff and to
grow hair, even though the scalp in
spots is bare of hair. If there is any
vitality left in the roots, it will posi-
tively cure baldness, or we'will refund
your money. If the scalp bas a glazed,
shiny appearance, it's an indication
that baldness is permanent, but in
other instances we believe baldness is
curable.
We want every one troubled with
scalp disease or loss of hair to try
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. If it does
not cure dandruff and grow hair to the
satisfaction of the user, we will with-
out question or quibble return every
cent paid us for it. We print this
guarantee on every bottle. It has
effected a positive cure in 93% of cases
where put to a practical test.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is entirely
unlike, and we think, in every parti-
cular, better than anything else we
know of for the purpose for which
it is prescribed. We urge you to try
this preparation at- our entire risk.
Certainly we know of no better
guarantee to give you, .Remember,
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in
Winghtfm only at our store, the flax-

Hay Scarce There.
The Chatham News' reports hay
selling at $1'7 a ton, and says :—"It is
believed that hay will reach the
highest price before spring is again
here, in the history of the county.
Besides:a poor crop of hay which in
many cases did not mature at all,
owing to the long dry spell of the
summer months, it is said that the
corn fodder is also a failure and this
will tend towards sending the price
higher and making haythe only1
Y
available provender for cattle and
horses during the winter. One farmer
said that the winter would be a hard
one for many of the farmers. Many
of the barns are even at present al-
most bare of hay or other provender,
It will be a diffieutt matter in another
month to buy hay at almost any price.
Stook farmers who have a large
number of cattle on their hands will
have a hard time finding sufficient
feed to fatten them for the market."

Archdeacon Ferrer tells about a
boy who took a flower with him to
his work every morning. He put the
flower on his desk in the schoolroom
and when asked why he did this, he
replied that the flower was to remind
him of God and keep him from evil
thoughts. So should every beautiful
hing we see of God's hondiwork
serve to keep us true to him.

MENACING MASSES.
Huge Icebergs. Contain Elements el
Qwn. Destruction,
Icebergs, those fantastic wanderers
of the ocean, are a constant menace
to vessels, yet the danger would be
much greater if these floating masses
of ice did not contain the elements of
their own destruction. In the ice fac-
tory where bergs are made the tem-
perature is very low. In their out-
ward journey their surface becomes
exposed to a thawing temperature and
the resultant tension between the ex-
terior and interior is often great en-
ough to cause explosions that break
up the berg into comparatively harm-
less fragments. Should one of them
pass through this ordeal without
breaking up it is subjected to another
danger. Owing to its uneven quality,
melting goes on more rapidly ie. some
parts and crevices are soon formed.
Water collects in these during the
day and when it freezes again at night
the expansion is often great enough
to split the huge mase..
Thus it is that comparatively few
of these terrors from the Arctic re-
gions, the haunting dread of every
mariner, escape these natural pro-
cesses of disintegration to drift to
lower latitudes where the ocean liners
ply to and fro.
Western Greenland is the most pro-
lific producer ef icabergs. A few
come around Cape Farewell from the
Spitzbergen Sea and others struggle
out of Hudson Bay, but danger in
the Atlantic Ocean from this source
is mostly chargeable to Greenland.
Bergs are made 12 months in the
year, but in larger numbers in sum -
mei., Thousands are broken off the
advance border of the glaciers every
year. They are of all sizes. The aver-
age ice island seen and photographed
by travelers along the North Atlantic
turnpike is from GO to 100 feet high,
with spires and pinnacles from 200 to
250 feet in height and a length of from
300 to 500 yards. These measurements
are above water. Beneath the surface
-may be eight or nine times the bulk
above, Measurements above and below
apply to mass, not to height. An ice
island may be as high out of water as
it is deep -below.
The great highway of the offspring
of the Greenland ice cap and of ice-
bergs formed by the breaking up of
great fields of sea -made ice is the
Labrador current, which is beset with
many pitfalls and obstructions; but
only a corporal's guard ever reach the
Atlantic. Some of the stragglers
ground in the Arctic basin and break
up there. Others are cast on the
shores of Labrador, whence they may
float again. Others break up as pre-
viously mentioned and disappear; still
others avoid the islands, bays, head-
lands, shoals and reefs of Labrador
and reach the Grand Banks.
Off the coast of Labrador in July
and August there is added to the
warnings of vision, and echoes the
deafening detonation of the natural
rending' mountains of ice. Vessels
often have been damaged by masses
of ice falling upon them, or imperilled
through the splitting or rolling of a
berg.
Their shapes vary from a regular
geometric figure to castellated forms,
with spires, domes, minarets and
peaks; while others have caverns and
grottoes. Cataracts roll from the big
fellows, icicles hang from projecting
ledges. They have spurs under water
as dangerous as •sunken reefs.
The usual rate of speed is from 10 to
3a miles a day. Not all the glacial
monsters made in a season pick their
'ray south the same year. Reckoning
tae drift of the Labrador current at 10
utiles a day, a berg traveling to the
southward and meeting no obstruc-
tion would cover its trip of 1,200 to
1,500 miles in four or five months.
But so many are the delays, so erratic
their journeyinrs that many of the
menacing masses seen by the mariner
may be several years old.
An Earl Anti -Trust Law.
As early e y as 4_., A.D. we find the
Emrerer Zeno issuing to the Pretor-
ian prefect of Constantinople an edict
opening w;th this declaration: "\\'e
cummand that no one may presume to
exercise a monopoly of any kind of
cloth or of fish or of any other thing
serving for food or for any other use
whatever its nature may be, either of
his own authority or under a receipt
of an emperor already procured or
that may hereafter be produced, nor
may any persons combine or agree in
411 .w:ut meetings, toat different kinds
of merchandise may not be sold at a
less prig than they may have agreed
among themselves.
A Hint to the Engaged.
Thera is a superstit'.on which says
that engaged couples who are photo.
graphed together never get married.
Superstition is gradually lying down,
so that few would be kept back by an
old woman's saying, There is, how-
ever, one thing winch should keep en-
gaged couples from being photograph-
ed together, and that is the thought
that if either or both should marry
same: one else the .fewer tokens there
are of previous love affairs the greater
is the chance of happiness in the final
choice.

Barry, "that it means a fiat without

For no matter how much or how little cooking k done; no matter what the experience

furnish these three essentials--eteadintes and control of heat, even baking facilities. and a

Fifty Years Ago.
Fifty years ago Lord Palmerston
was Prime Minister of Great Britain,
the Prince Consort died, King Edward
came of age, Thackeray was editing
Cornhill, Victor Hugo, was writing
his famous novel, Les Miserables, the
Civil War was raging in the United
States and Abraham Lincoln was
wrestling to save the Union. Europe
was disturbed from the Baltic to the
Mediterranean, France was in Rome
and Austria in Venice, Mazzini and
Garibaldi were striving to unite Italy.
In England as a result of the civil war
in the United .States shutting out
aupplies there was the cotton famine,
controversies about wooden ships
versus ironclads, about the income-
tax, Churcb rates, and the Thames
Embankment.
Where Money Is Lost.
The greatest source of loss in the
datir•y industry is the feeding of un-
profitable cows. For example :—A
certain cheese factory in one year
paid one of its patrons $879 for the
product of eight cows, while it gave
another patron $9 less, or $868, for
the milk from 22 cows. The latter
d itryman boarded nearly three times
as many cows as the other to get less
gross return. In another locality
s rme herd owners secured an average
of 300 pounds of butter fat per cow,
while others at the same place and in
tine same time averaged only 80 lbs,
par cow. An income of $100 per cow,
as in the better herd, gives some
margin for profit, but how can $20 a
head result in anything but loss ?
Probably some animals in the poor
herds mentioned were profitable pro-
ducers, but it is safe to say that .the
owners would have been better off at
the end of the year if, before the year
began, they had carefully studied
their cows and sold one-half of them.
It is probable also that in the better
herds some weeding out might have
been done to advantage, for great in-
dividual differences are found even in
teeeed herds bred for years along one
lice of productivity. Tntil the feeder
knows his cows through the scales and
the Babcock test, lee can never claim
to be doing a dairy "business," he is
meeely doing dairy "guess work,"
and may be feeding into Polly all the
profits he should make from Bess and
Spot.
Tea stains will disappear from the
finest damask if well rubbed with gly-
cerine and then washed with soap and
water. Another way is to first soak
the stain in cold water, then sprinkle
with powdered borax and allow to
stand. Thad use clear boiling water
but never soap, as the soap will set
the tannin and coloring matter in the
stain and it will never come out.

A GREAT DISCOVERY.
Certain Ingredlent$ That Really
Promote Hair Growth When
Properly Combined.
Rosanne is one of the most effective
germ destroyers ever discovered by
science, and in conisection with Beta
Napthol which is both germicidal and
antiseptic, a combination is formed
which deetoys the germs which rob
the hair of its natural nourishment,
and also creates a clean, healthy con-
dition of the scalp, which prevents the
development of new germs,
Pilocarpin, although not a coloring
matter or dye, is a well-known ingre-
dient for restoring the hair to its
natural color, when the loss of hair
has been caused by a disease of the
scalp.
These ingredients in proper com-
bination, with alcohol added as a
stimulant and for its well-defined
nourishing properties, perfect perhaps
the most effective remedy that is
known for scalp and hair troubles.
We have a remedy which is chiefly
composed of these ingredients, in com-
bination with other extremely invalu-
able medicinal agents. We guarantee
it to positively cure dandruff and to
grow hair, even though the scalp in
spots is bare of hair. If there is any
vitality left in the roots, it will posi-
tively cure baldness, or we'will refund
your money. If the scalp bas a glazed,
shiny appearance, it's an indication
that baldness is permanent, but in
other instances we believe baldness is
curable.
We want every one troubled with
scalp disease or loss of hair to try
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. If it does
not cure dandruff and grow hair to the
satisfaction of the user, we will with-
out question or quibble return every
cent paid us for it. We print this
guarantee on every bottle. It has
effected a positive cure in 93% of cases
where put to a practical test.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is entirely
unlike, and we think, in every parti-
cular, better than anything else we
know of for the purpose for which
it is prescribed. We urge you to try
this preparation at- our entire risk.
Certainly we know of no better
guarantee to give you, .Remember,
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in
Winghtfm only at our store, the flax-

Hay Scarce There.
The Chatham News' reports hay
selling at $1'7 a ton, and says :—"It is
believed that hay will reach the
highest price before spring is again
here, in the history of the county.
Besides:a poor crop of hay which in
many cases did not mature at all,
owing to the long dry spell of the
summer months, it is said that the
corn fodder is also a failure and this
will tend towards sending the price
higher and making haythe only1
Y
available provender for cattle and
horses during the winter. One farmer
said that the winter would be a hard
one for many of the farmers. Many
of the barns are even at present al-
most bare of hay or other provender,
It will be a diffieutt matter in another
month to buy hay at almost any price.
Stook farmers who have a large
number of cattle on their hands will
have a hard time finding sufficient
feed to fatten them for the market."

MENACING MASSES.
Huge Icebergs. Contain Elements el
Qwn. Destruction,
Icebergs, those fantastic wanderers
of the ocean, are a constant menace
to vessels, yet the danger would be
much greater if these floating masses
of ice did not contain the elements of
their own destruction. In the ice fac-
tory where bergs are made the tem-
perature is very low. In their out-
ward journey their surface becomes
exposed to a thawing temperature and
the resultant tension between the ex-
terior and interior is often great en-
ough to cause explosions that break
up the berg into comparatively harm-
less fragments. Should one of them
pass through this ordeal without
breaking up it is subjected to another
danger. Owing to its uneven quality,
melting goes on more rapidly ie. some
parts and crevices are soon formed.
Water collects in these during the
day and when it freezes again at night
the expansion is often great enough
to split the huge mase..
Thus it is that comparatively few
of these terrors from the Arctic re-
gions, the haunting dread of every
mariner, escape these natural pro-
cesses of disintegration to drift to
lower latitudes where the ocean liners
ply to and fro.
Western Greenland is the most pro-
lific producer ef icabergs. A few
come around Cape Farewell from the
Spitzbergen Sea and others struggle
out of Hudson Bay, but danger in
the Atlantic Ocean from this source
is mostly chargeable to Greenland.
Bergs are made 12 months in the
year, but in larger numbers in sum -
mei., Thousands are broken off the
advance border of the glaciers every
year. They are of all sizes. The aver-
age ice island seen and photographed
by travelers along the North Atlantic
turnpike is from GO to 100 feet high,
with spires and pinnacles from 200 to
250 feet in height and a length of from
300 to 500 yards. These measurements
are above water. Beneath the surface
-may be eight or nine times the bulk
above, Measurements above and below
apply to mass, not to height. An ice
island may be as high out of water as
it is deep -below.
The great highway of the offspring
of the Greenland ice cap and of ice-
bergs formed by the breaking up of
great fields of sea -made ice is the
Labrador current, which is beset with
many pitfalls and obstructions; but
only a corporal's guard ever reach the
Atlantic. Some of the stragglers
ground in the Arctic basin and break
up there. Others are cast on the
shores of Labrador, whence they may
float again. Others break up as pre-
viously mentioned and disappear; still
others avoid the islands, bays, head-
lands, shoals and reefs of Labrador
and reach the Grand Banks.
Off the coast of Labrador in July
and August there is added to the
warnings of vision, and echoes the
deafening detonation of the natural
rending' mountains of ice. Vessels
often have been damaged by masses
of ice falling upon them, or imperilled
through the splitting or rolling of a
berg.
Their shapes vary from a regular
geometric figure to castellated forms,
with spires, domes, minarets and
peaks; while others have caverns and
grottoes. Cataracts roll from the big
fellows, icicles hang from projecting
ledges. They have spurs under water
as dangerous as •sunken reefs.
The usual rate of speed is from 10 to
3a miles a day. Not all the glacial
monsters made in a season pick their
'ray south the same year. Reckoning
tae drift of the Labrador current at 10
utiles a day, a berg traveling to the
southward and meeting no obstruc-
tion would cover its trip of 1,200 to
1,500 miles in four or five months.
But so many are the delays, so erratic
their journeyinrs that many of the
menacing masses seen by the mariner
may be several years old.

A Hint to the Engaged.
Thera is a superstit'.on which says
that engaged couples who are photo.
graphed together never get married.
Superstition is gradually lying down,
so that few would be kept back by an
old woman's saying, There is, how-
ever, one thing winch should keep en-
gaged couples from being photograph-
ed together, and that is the thought
that if either or both should marry
same: one else the .fewer tokens there
are of previous love affairs the greater
is the chance of happiness in the final
choice.

Barry, "that it means a fiat without
