EFFECT OF THE FOOD LA,W.
Driving Many Worthless Catarrh
Medicines out of Existence.
The Pure Food and Drug Law, which
went into effect the first of January,
has already shown the good that will
tollow its enforcement.
Many worthless remedies, that have
been advertised for the cure of catarrh,
a disease that is universally prevalent,
have been driven mat of existence by the
Pure Food Law.
The effect of this is to increase the
sale of r- medies that are valuable and
that fuffill the provisions of the law.
Hyomei, for example, is meeting with a
larger sale taan ever before, and Walton
- MoKrbbou is still selling it under a
guarantee that it will cure catarrh or
your mo ey will be refu.lded Hyomei
is a scientific treatment that is reoom-
mohded by the best physicians It cures
catarrh without stomach dosing, through
inha ing medications that go right to the
affected spots.
By breathing Hyomei three or four
times daily through the neat pocket in-
haler that comes with every outfit, its
medicated, healing air penetrates to the
most remote parts of the nose. throat
and bangs, searches out and kills all
atarrcal germs, and soothes and heals
auv irritat on.in the mucous membrane.
The complete Hyomei ontftt costs
$L.00. extra bottles if needed, 503, and is
sold by Walton under the
gu .rautee that it wilt cure o cost noth•
lug.
Canada and the United States.
The New York Post hits the nail on
the head as follows:
"Canada today feels her self mistress
in her own house as never before. She
is rapidly developing a vast territory in
the west. Immigration is flowing iu at
her doors, Her manufacturers are
multiplying. Exports ars mounting.
Canada isto•day building more railroads
than the United States. Plans are afoot
where Canadian produce can be sent
abroad the year round without resorting
to a single American port. There is in
all this imperial as well as national poli.
tics. '1 he net result is that we have to-
day tti deal with a Canada in whom the
sense of pride and self-sufficiency is con-
stantly strengthening, Canadains have
thriven nader our coldness. What we
lost by the inconsiderate abrogation of
the reiprocity treaty with them of 50
years ago cannot now be regained."
3 How a Glasgow Business was Made.
(Scottish American.)
The Prime Minister, Si. Henry Camp-
bell -Bannerman, who was presented the
other day with the freedom of the City
of Gasgow, was bora there in the year
1836, and his youth is associated with a
period of remarkable municipal progress
in the history of that any, and with the
building up of a great oommercial house.
Ilia uncle, Mr. William Campbell, was
ie: the curly part of the last century an
assistant in a Glasgow draper's shop.
As at that time it was common to mark
goods with one price, bat to be prepared
to sell them, after haggling, for mneh
, less, and Dr, Chalmers delivered a stir.
leg series of lectures to Glasgow busi-
ness men, ill which ho condemned this
system as savouring of corruption. Wil -
2 t Bane Campbell was nautili impressed,
2'
and urged his employer to adopt a ay -
stem of "Itio Second Prices." His em-
ployer ridiculed the idea, but offered to
lend Wii!ram Campbell E500 to try the
experiment in a business of his own.
William accepted the offered, got credit
for a like amonnt from Manchester
houses, and opened a "One Price" shop
with his 'nether, Sir Henry Campbell-
lBannerman's father, as his partner.
Their success was immediately and so
great that at the time of the Disruption
of the Church of Scotland William
Campbell was able to assist the Free
Church movement with a cheque for
et10,000. The business grew to enor-
mous proportions, and the Prime Min-
ister's father, Sir James Campbell, be-
came Lord Provost of the City of Glas-
gow and a pioneer in its period of muni-
cipal expansion.

THE ART OF BEING A PEACE-
MAKER.
(MoLandburgh 'Wilson)
I tried to part two fighting dogs,
The cause of peace to beg;
But while one chewed my ooat tails up,
The other ate my leg.
A fracas matrimonial,
I undertook to stop;
The lady tried to scratch my eyes,
The husband called a. cop.
Don't think I grudge him his renown
No bile turns green my eye,
because the President for less
Received the Nobel prize.
But just the same, for future use
This motto I have picked;
Before you interfere be sure
The parties both are licked.
SOME DOUBTS,
[Bohemian.]
Fair Mildred has a rounded form
Of shapeliness divine,
Displaying most bewitching curves
01 grace in every line,
But even while I contemplate
Her figura with delight,
I wonder if she takes is off
When she retires at night.
She has a wealth of golden hair,
This paragon of male,
It frames her brow in silken waves
And shining braids and curls;
It's never straight or stringy whoa
By damp east breezestblowu,
I wonder if those Bunny locks
Are Mildred's very own,
Tae color of a damask rose
Is on her oval cheek,
The perfect tint of youth and health
That many vainly seek.
Bat still a cruel, canning doubt
My admiration mocks.
I wonder if perchance she keeps
Her blushes in a box.

stock in the best condition, it is the
best plan for him to provide ggood
warm shelter for all his animals. T11%
miens most particularly to a flock of
sheep, says the American Sheep
Breeder. It is commonly thought, and
the thought is commonly expressed,
that eheep, being provided with a
thick woolly coat in the winter, do
not require any other shelter than ,a i.
board fence and a comfortable yard tot
pass the nights in. It is a very com-`
iron accident for such persons to lose
a few sheep and iambs every winter
by exposure to cold and neglect, Ani
mals suffer from cold when they are
shivering in an exposed yard on a
cold winter's night quite as much as
their owners may do under similar
exposure. And it is a waste of money,;
for food is the same as money to the
owner of a flock of sheep. Of Course
this error reduces the profits from a
flock of sheep that is exposed t -' the
cold.
It will cost very little to make the
sheep comfortable. A rough board
shed that will break the force of the,
cold winds will be sufficient. It should
have a tight roof that it may be dry„
Dry cold is far more bearable than,
a much better temperature with a wets
skirl, But the wind of a cold freezing
night when the sheep fleeces are wa-
ter soaked will kill sheep that would
be comfortable if their skins went
dry and protected by the dry fleece,l
It is quite often thought sufficient
that the sheep were sufficiently pm:
tested by their woolly coat although
exposed to rainstorms which froze the
fleece on their backs. The truth is that
the fleece of a sheep should not be
considered in this part of their man
agement as any greater protection
than the hairy coat of a cow, and the.
flock should have as much care for -
their protection as all other animals.
of the farm get.
Ventilation is a very important part
of the management of all shelters for
sheep -indeed, for all animals. The -
rule should be to give a square yard'
of floor space for every sheep in sheds -
or covered yards at the least, This is.-
twice as much as the sheep will cov
er, thus leaving half the floor for move,
ing space. The sheep will habitually
lie close together, and thus there will:
be ample room for the wanderers to
move about comfortably. Some of the-
sheep will bunch together, but thist
will be perfectly safe, for sheep may:
safely crowd together if there is am-,
ple room for all and none pile up on;
the others, The only safe rule in the
management of sheep is to wholly
prevent by sufficient precautions any'
risk of panics in the yards or sheda,-
as may happen by the presence of a
dog in the place. Strange dogs should'
always be kept front the sheep. The,
home dog may go anywhere among
them with ,safety, but a strange dog
may cause a panic in which some:
sheep will be lost. Thus the fences of
the open sheep yards should be well.

wire on the top.
The Cornish Indlen Fowl.

CORNISH INDIAN MALE,

perhaps the greatest percentage of
breast and thigh flesh to total weight;
of any fowl in existence.
