Mr. and DIrs. Rubt, Stone have been resident" of the township of Ernes town, about ten miles east of Napanee, for a period of about three years, and in that time have gained the esteem of all their neighbors. Fur six years previous to this time they had lived in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, and it was during their residence there that 11Irs. Stone was attacked with an ill- ness that made her life miserable for years. TO a reporter who recently in- terviewed her she told the following story : "During the early part of our residence in Colorado, my illness first came on. At the outset every two or three weeks I would be attacked with a pain in my stomach. Later on it greatly increased in severity, and at times was so bad that I would scream aloud with pain. A doctor was calld in, but the only benefit I ever received frorn hie treatment ryas through the injection of morphine into illy aim, as a result of which the pain would gradually pass away. ' The medicine which was given me, how• ever, had not the slighest efleet, and the doctor appeared to be greatly par- ploxed, and thereafter continually re- sorted the injections of morphine when ever the attacks came on. Those at- tacks continued at intervals until our return to Canada, when they increased frequency and intenseness. The to - stilt was that I grew very weak, and my whole system appeared to be giv ing Out. My complexion turned a yellowish line, and I had little or no appetite. Latterly I would be at. tacked with fainting spells, proceeded by attacks of dizziness. I became utterly unable to stand fatigue, and could with the greatest difficulty per, form lily household duties. A doctor was called in whe treated me for sonte time without benefiting me any. Then ba'gwvo mo what I noWknow to be Dr. NVilliams' pink Pills, and after I had use'f two boxes I felt somewhat better. I then purchased the pills my self and continued the treatment. 1 found that the pain was gradually de- creasing. I could got rest and sleep at night, which had hitherto been almost impossible, I continued to rise Dr. \Villiams' Pink Pills for sevoral mouths and the result is that they have effected a complete cure, and 1 am now enjoying the beet of hoalth. I can assure you it is a great relief to bu free from the trouble that made my life miserable for so many years and I have to thank Dr. Williams' fink Pills for succeeding when doctors had failed, Dr. Williams' Pink Pillq act directly upon the blood and nerves, building them allow and thns driving disease from the system.

Ikeep the !rent Rcratehlnt;. ti The great secret of securing eggs is really no secret, for every experienced persons knows that everything depends upon the conditions. It is not always the breed or the feed that makes the z hen lay. The main point is not to make a laying Pat hen. If you have hens for market that are to be fatted, remove your laying hens. Keep the market hens confined closely, but keep your laying hens at work. The secret (if it Is a secret) of making . -hens lay is to f have them always busy at scratching.

The earlier the potatoes can be start- ed the bettor, as it Is the hot, dry weather that damages them. It 1e now customary to sprout the smal potatoes before planting, handling them carefully, in order to secure ar early start. Now is the time to loot over the seed potatoes, throwing out every one that shows the stightes, signs of rot, aril every potato used for seed should be carefully examined.
