Prominent Minister Endorses Hacking's Heart and Nerve Remedy Was almost a Nervous Wreck from Overwork; this won- derful remedy brought back his old time -Vidor and Vital- ity. Read the story of a Great Medicine, in three letters. $100 in cash will be paidjo anyone who can prove that these letters are not genuine. The name of Minister will be given to anyone who doubts these remarkable statements. Here is Letter Number One "Please send me one box of HACKING'S HEART and NERVE REM- 1RDY, I am suffering from a bad attack and have been unable to MI my pulpit for three months, doctors say that it may be six months or more be- fore I am well again. I used to be able to hold my large congregation from start to finish, now, I can scarcely hold my own thoughts. My Heart Action is bad and I am subject to Paintings and Dizziness, and am very despondent, I hope that your remedy will help me." We sent on the one box of Hacking's Heart and Nerve Remedy and 11 days later we receive this letter. Letter Number Two "PIease send me G boxes of Hacking's Heart and Nerve Remedy. I have used the box you sent me and•I feel that it has already helped me. My head is clearer and the pain that has followed the preparation of my sermons has been greatly relieved and I feel that with proper treatment I will again be restored to my old-time vigor. I am so pleased with the success of your remedy that I am giving part of It to some of my friends." Now comes the proof in letter number three, a few weeks. later. Letter Numller Three "Having used your medicine,Hacking's Heart and Nerve Remedy for a Sew weeks for Neurasthenia (Nervous Breakdown) I have become as a new swam. For five months I have suffered from Sleeplessntxls, Nervous ChM*, /fainting Spells, Severe Headaches and I could not place my mind on the preparation of my sermons. To -day, my old ambition and strength is re., p e ed --thanks to the use of your remedy, which t am please} to recons eland to anyone suffering from Nervous Diseases." Tide testlmontlal comes voluntarily from one whose reputation is un- assailable and is given for the *ole purpose of helping others.

OUT-APATRY MANAGEMENT The tendency of modern beekeelr ing is to specialize. One hundred ,colonies is about the largest number that cmc be kept with full profit in many places, but an experienced and active man can tittend to double that number, especailly if he hag a little help,, hence the development of the out-apairy. The place chosen for the ant-apairy should be irk a good le - earthy for honey plants, (clay or lime- stone soil is best fete clover) and it should be not less than 14,vo or three utiles from the ltelne.yard, Other things to look frit' in thoosng a place for the out -yard are, shelter from winch, especially if the bees are to be wintered outside,. freedom' front • floods, safety front, bush fires, a good - road between the two yards; and •no large er.. diseased apairies near. • An out-hquse for storiltg _equipment and extracting .the Honey is convenient -hut.not always essential because the extracting can often he clone better at the. home -yard. An shite with trail- er, or a light truck Der transporting hives and supplies, is of great ser- vice. To discourage swarming, extract- ed honey should b produced in pre- ferenee• to comb -honey, and plenty of •supers, containing empty combs, should be given to the bees in ad- vance of their requirements. Lt southern Ontario where swarm- ing can be controlled without much trouble, and the climate is mild en- ough for wintering bees outside, the professional bee keeper frequently keeps one or more out-aparies, but in many parts of Canada where the problems of swarming and wintering are more acute, the out-apaiey. js still in the experimental stage, although in some of these places, very high yields of honey are to be obtained. To discover how touch honey could be obtained, and how many visits would be needed to prevent swarm- ing in different kinds of locations a few colonies from the Central Ex- perimental Farm have been placed during the last three summers in different places around Ottawa. In 1917 two colonies wore placed on a sandy plain and two in a swamp near I{azubazua, Que. about Stratford, Jan. 24th, 1920. D. L. Nlaspherson, Esq., Town Clerk, Clinton Ont, Dear Sir:—Your letter of the 21st instant to City Clerk has been hand- ed to me. We have not purchased any coal as the By -am submitted to rate- payers in January 1919, empowering the Council to purchase same was defeated. Lt the year 1918 we purchased some wood from Algonqun Park which has nearly all been sold. Trusting this will meet with your requirements, I am, Yours truly. W. G. DIXON Fuel Commissioner. t:*ee London, Jan. 22nd, 1920. D. 1, Maspherson, Esq,, Town Clerk, Clinton Ont. Dear Sir:—In reply to your letter of January 19th, we beg to advise that for the last three .years we have been operating a coal and wood yard. During the shortage of fuel we . were able to render a good ser- vice to the citizens by providing them with fuel, but owing to the difficulty experienced in purchasing coal direct from the operators or large Jobbers, prices were paid which were too high to make and profit when the coal was sold at prices equal to that of the dealers. Under normal circumstances I have no doubt that a fuel, yard could be operated profitably;..but at the pres- ent time with conditions. as they are, there seems to me little to be gained except it' be to carry a small stock of coal and wood to assist the poor- er citizens in an emergency. Yours truly,. PUBLIC UTILITIES COM. E. V. Buchanan, General Manager. A: Y,, t: e Peterborough, Jan. 24th, 1920, D. L. Maspherson, Esq., Town Clerk, Clinton Ont. Dear Sir: -0 have received you en- guiry of Jemmy 21st. Ths .city about two years ago es. tablished a fuel yard •and endenv- ored to purchase coal and wood. They succeeded in getting a quant- ity of coal and some wood. The wood was not all sold but what was left on hand was disposed of through the Charity Committee. The City still has about 1000 :tons of coal in stock and it. is selling very, slowly. • The difficulty the Fuel Committee found was that: they could not mar - chase from the line companies be- cause they had their dealers here and would not sell 'to anyone else and the Committee had to purshase from jobbers and had to pay a higher price, and did not get ao good coal, Last winter the City sold comparatvcly little of its coal and carried. the atocic over and, have not .sold much of it this winter, . Yours truly,, It, ARMSTRONG, City Clerk. We wish to an' nouuce to our cus- tomers that we will guarantee to repair FREE for one year any GOODRICH CASING bought from us.
