I had it in my feet and ankles and at last it reached my heart. I could scarcely walk around the house. I doctored for a long tune and spent money on every kind of mesh - pine any one would tell me of. I be- sillSaine so discouraged I did not care what became of mo. A gentleman was in and advised me to get a bottle of your Rheumatic Cure and I must say I had very little faith when I sent for it, but all I could do was to try it, and had only taken half a bottle when I saw a change for the better and when I had taken the second bottle I was cured. I tell to everyone what it has done for nie and have given your address so they could send. I feel I shall never be able to praise your wonderful cure enough for I firmly believe I would have been a cripple if I had not received your euro when I did. Trusting you will accept my humble thanks for what you have done for me. I remain, • Yours truly, Miss A. L. BOLLEN.

Mg to say concerning the calor of the Percheron horse: The color of this breed (Percheron) as bred today is either gray or black. The importers of this breed are the on- ly men who make a specialty of import - Ing blacks and grays, The history and the studbooks will bar me out that formerly the univer• sat color of these famous horses was gray. We have no account in the his- tory of the french draft horses or in Luny of tin. studbooks whore any breed- ing is given of a single animal we- eessing any other color than gray un- til as late as 1865, at which time French 11lonarch,- a black, was born. In 1867 Brilliant (756), the second black horse, was Darn. Roth were the pro• duct of gray sires and gray dams whose ancestors were universally grays so far aN the records show. It is very natural to suppose that the gray animal whose ancestors were orig.. Anally and universally gray would most certainly reproduce their own col- ors. The b q ck stallion, the product of a breed that was so recently all gray, TYPICAL BLACK F$RCHIRON. cannot reproduce his own color so cer- tainly as can tate gray. Some gray stal- lions—yes, very many—seldom or nev- er cast anything but gray colors even from mares of the various colors. So rnucli cannot be said of the blacks. In the effort to change the color of the French draft horse from gray to black there has been a great sacrifice of qual- ity for color. If the same effort had been made to improve the dark gray color much more would have been gained. The black horse is very pretty if well groomed, well blanketed and not sweat- ed or exposed to the sun. No horse can endure the cold and heat better than the gray. There is no color more at- tractive than a- nice dapple or dark gray, and no draft horse will command so great a price. I am pleased to know that a beneficial change is working to get back to bed rock, to the old time gray French horse, than which we have no better. Many large breeders of to- day will use none but ag ray stallion. It b, true that a large majority of the most successful French horses either as breeders or as prize winners have been grays. Facts About Milking. Opinions differ very much as to the manner in which the operator should proceed in milking a. cow. Some con- tend that the proper plan Is to draw the near fore and the off hind teats si- multaneously and then the off fore and the near hind teats, while others argue that both the hind teats should be first drawn, and still others contend that the whole of one side of the udder should be drawn ere the other side is touched. We are not aware that there i; really very much in it either way, but it is suggestive to learn that in an investigation conducted some time ago by Prof. Babcock, the well known dairy expert, it was found that the order in which the teats were milked exercis- ed considerable influence on the quality of the milk obtained. It was found that the teat that was drawn second In order almost invariably yielded the richest milk: then came the teat that was first milked and next in order the third and fourth, the last one drawn Invariably giving the poorest milk. From these results Prof. Babcock ar- gues that milk is pretty largely formed. during the act of milking and that it clots not accumulate to any extent in the ready made condition of the udder. —American Cultivator. I lead of the Swine Herd. The boar, properly speaking, is the head of the swine herd and should be as near perfect as it is possible, says a Mississippi farmer in American Agri- culturist. He is to influence or stamp his own good qualities upon the entire herd, whereas a sow will only influence Irtr own litter. He should be smooth, with a straight, broad back, deep sides, short, straight legs, with the ham ex- tending nearly to the hocks; short head and neelc and a good fonder. Avoid one with the least sway in his back or one whose dew claws touch the ground. Ile should never be allowed to run with the sows, but should be kept by himself in a lot with an extra good fence so that it will be impossible for him to break out. Why the Cows Go Dry. Cows go dry more from mismanage- ment than from any other cause. Ir- regularity of- milking and failure to "strip" when milking will cause any cow to dry off. The richest milk is the last drawn from the udder, and for that reason alone the dairymen should strip closely. Changes of food, when made suddenly, will also cause the cows to fall off in yield, but in the winter the cause may also be due to extreme cold and insufficient shelter, while in sum- mer the use of netting in the windows to protect the stable against the en- trance of files and other insects will serve to prolong the milking period.

(Teeswater News.) This usually orderly village came very nearly being the scene of a trag- edy Wednesday evening of last week. As a resnit of what happened Alex. Colvin is limping about from the ef- fects of a bullet wound in the leg, and SVm. Cousins sr., is locked in Walker- ton jail awaiting the judgment of the court for shooting at a man with in- tent to do bodily injury. From the evidence submitted at the preliminary trial of Cousins on Thursday morning, before magistrates Ferguson and Al- lison, it appears that Cousins, who had been drinking for several clays, went on the evening above mentioned to the home of Mr. David Ballagh to show a letter he had received to Mrs. Win. Colvin, thinking it would be of interest to her. Alex. Colvin, who makes his home at Ballagh's, was in the house at the time and says that after reading the letter Cousins offer- ed hint and Ballagh a drink of whis- key from a flask that he had. After this Cousins began to talk in a way that annoyed Mrs. Colvin and Alex. told him to leave the house. Cousins refused to go and Colvin threw him out, striking him several times as he slid so. Cousins then went home leav- ing at Ballagh's a bicycle he had been riding. Remembering this he pre- sently started back taking a revolver with him according to his story, to protect himself in case Colvin under- took to beat him again. Colvin, on seeing Cousins returning, took the wheel out to Ballagh's gate where the two met and evidently had a few words. In the coarse of the quarrel here Cousins pulled his revolver and fired three shots in the direction of Colvin who was quite close to -rim. The first bullet scratched Colvin's left arm, the second missed and the third made a slight wound in the external side of his left leg, passing under the skin about 2S inches. John Colvin V. S. procured a warrant for the arrest of Cousins who was taken to Walker- ton jail, where he elected to be tried before a judge rather than await the fall assizes. The trial • came off on Tuesday but the court reservedjudg- urent until Thursday. Clinton. On Tuesday last Rev. Dr. Stewart, pastor of Willis Church, reached his 59th birthday. He has been located in Clinton for 27 years, and no man enjoys the confidence and esteem to a larger extent. The committee, which had in hand the 12th of Jnly celebration, found themselves in the hole, financially, owing doubtless to the wet weather, and the $50 voted towards the celebra- tion has been paid over by the council. Miss Jeanette Combe, B. A., died on Thursday last, Deceased was a. young lady whore to know was to respect, being a person of great moral worth and Christian character. She was an honor graduate of Toronto University class of 1890 and taught in the Collegiate here for some time and subsequently in the Model school, but ill health forced her to give up the work about two years ago. At Kingsbridge last Friday morn- ing an accident happened in which Mr. Jas. Martin of town was seriously injured. He was engaged in arrang- ing a scaffold at the ceiling of the new Catholic church which is being built there when in some way the rope gave way and he fell about twenty-eight feet to the floor below, striking on another scaffold on the way down which broke the force of the fall some- what. When picked up he was un- conscious and remained so for twenty- four hours, On Saturday morning lest Mr. H, B.

It Secluded a Toper Cutter, Sale Eleanor and Rubber needs, Perhaps the most in euioua and the most original of all s hemee for pre - curing autographs was from a lady in a western town. She was raising funds. for the buliding and snpPort of a public library, and she had conceived the idea of issuing a volume to be called "The Authors' Recipe Book." ,Authors from all over the country, the most distin- gulehed of authors—always authors with a capital A --had been good enough. to send her a list of the favorite dishes of their own construction, with their method of making them. The cookbook was one of the many forms of literature to 'which the recip- ient had never turned his attention. He had no more idea of cooking than be had of milking a cow or of harnessing a horse or of setting a hen or of build- ing a dynamo. lie did not even care what was cooked for him so long as it contained none of the ingredients of tripe and none of the essence of toma- to. But he was asked to contribute a paper, which she would, have repro- duced In facsimile, stating what be could prepare most to his liking upon a kitchen range or In a chafing dish, with his manner of procedure. This quite nonplused him until he bethought himself of one particular and peculiar delicacy In the evolution of which be could safely trust hid reputation as an expert. In reply, for which he received no thanks, he said: "Take a long paper cutter; attach to the same by means of rubber bands, and securely, an ink eraser; insert the ink eraser firmly into a marshmallow plug and hold the same over a student's lamp or study fire until the marshmal- low begins to sizz, drops into the ashes, puts out the light or burns your hand. And eat while hot!" He has never seen a copy of "The Au- thors' Recipe Book!"—Laurence Hutton in Critic. BULGING GUN BARRELS. The Raba That Is Wrought by Care- less Handling, I have sold guns for ten years, and in that time four of them have had their barrels bulged, one by snow, one by dirt, one by sand and one by some- thing else getting into it. One man crawling through a fence got a little MOW in the muzzle. Ho could not re- move it with his finger, so concluded to wait and shoot it out, which he did, but he found a bulge like a pullet's egg on the end of the barrel. Another got some earth in the muzzle and shot it out, and he, too, found the same kind of a bulge on the end of his gun. An- other fired his gun at ducks, which knocked him over on his back and fair- ly got away from him. When he pick- ed up the gun he found a narrow raised band around the barrel fourteen inches from the muzzle. In this case a wad had probably lodged there. This cus- tomer thinks the manufacturers ought to give hint a new set of barrels. I tell him if the barrels had not been good ones it would have been a burst in- stead of a bulge, which might have maimed or killed him. Another man ly- ing on a point brought down a duct: with a broken wing which scurried for the water. The man ran and struck the duck with the muzzle of the gun and in so doing got sand in it. He blew most of it out and shot out the rest of it. Well, after that shot he found a little blister two inches from the muz- zle about the size of a man's little fin- ger.

A. bachelor, old and cranky, was sit- ting alone in his room. His toes with the gout were aching, and his face was o'erspread with gloom, no little ones' shouts to disturb him—from noises the house was free. In fact, from cellar to attic 'twas as still as still could be. No medical aid was lacking; his serv- ants answered his ring, respectfully answered his orders and supplied him with everything. But still there was something wanted, which he could not Command—the kindly words of com- passion, the touch of a gentle hand. And he said, as his brow grew darker and he rang for the hireling nurse, "Well, marriage may be a failure, but this is a jolly sight worse." A Water Candlestick. A glass of water makes a fine emer- gency candlestick. Weight one end of the candle with a nail just large enough to hold the candle in the water so that the water touches its top edge, but does not touch the wick, and then light the candle.
