Look, Mother! If tongue is
coated, give "California
Syrup of Figs."
Children love this "fruit laxative,"
and nothing else cleanses! the tender
stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop playing
to empty the bowels, and the result is
they become tightly clogged with
waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach
sours, then your little one becomes
cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat,
sleep or act naturally, breath is bad,
system full of cold, has sore throat,
stomach-ache or diarrhoea. Listen,
Mother! See if torfgue is coSted, then
give a teaspoonful of "California
Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all
the constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passeq out of the sys-
tem, and you have a well child again.
Millions of mothers give "California
Syrug of Figs" because it is perfectly
harmless; children love it, and it nev-
er fails to act on the stomach, liver
and bowels.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of "California Syrup of Figs," which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.
His Last Visit.
She had seen some springs, also re-
membered some summers, had known
a variety of winters, and had a few
hard autumns. The young man who
was coming round seemed to be seri-
ous, but slow, so ehe said:
"I want to show you my rings.
Papa has given me one on each of
ray birthdays." She exhibited about
twenty rings. "Now," she said, airily,
"you can't guess my birthday?"
"Oh, yes I can. It's February 29!r
He never called again.

Sheldon, S. C.—In advices from this
town, Mrs. J. B. Marvin writes as fol-
lows: "For more than three years, I
suffered with womanly troubles, and
none of the different treatments I un-
derwent seemed to do me any good.
I also had pains in my left side, so
bad, at times, I could hardly get up.
My husband told me to buy some
Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I did. I
started taking it, and soon began to
feel better. I took only a few bottles
and now I am perfectly well, and able
to do anything.
Cardui has done me a world of good.
It certainly cured me of the trouble I
had and I am getting along nicely.
I have recommended the remedy to
other sufferers, and they have all been
benefited by it.
I will always keep Cardui in my
home for use in time of need."
Cardui is a purely vegetable rem-
edy, containing no harmful mineral
products. Its ingredients act In a help-
ing, building way, on the womanly con*
stitution. It has been relieving wom-
anly troubles for over half a century,
during which time It has proven of
more than ordinary value as a tonio
for weak women.
You can rely on Cardui. It will do
for you, what it has done for thousands
of others. It will help you. Begin to
take Cardui today.

Another Interesting and Valuabls Di-
version Is Development of Polled
Durham Breed of Cattle—The
Dwarf Tomato Is Another.
(By PROF. JOHN WILLARD BOLTE.)
The term "sport" means many
things to many people. We each
think in our own language and see
the same object in different colors
from various sides. Sport from the
standpoint of the man Interested in
heredity Is an unprecedented and un-
accountable change of character in
the offspring of perfectly normal pa-
rents. This change may be slight, or
It may be absolutely revolutionary,
but if It be a true sport it has never
occurred before In the ancestry of
this particular individual.
The new character may effect one
organ or the whole structure of the
Individual. There is no way of trac-
ing the causes of the change and no
certainty that it will be transmitted
to the descendants of the sport.
It is from these abrupt spontaneous
appearances of strange characters
that some of our most valuable va-
rieties of plans and animals have
come. Perhaps one of the most fa-
miliar sports in animal world Is the
White Plymouth Rock chicken. Thffc
variety is a pure sport derived from
the Barred variety and the pure white
chicks occurred in two or three places
in this country at about the same
time. Fortunately they transmitted
their white color to their offspring and
thus was created a new breed, pure
white in color, and true Plymouth
Rocks in every other characteristic.
Another interesting and valuable
sport Is the Polled DuAam breed of
cattle, a hornless breed descended
from the true sports of the Shorthorns.
The first true polled Shorthorns were
born of horned parents, but their off-
spring were usually hornless.
In the vegetable kingdom, one of
the latest sports is the Dwarf Tomato
which we told you about in a recent
article. It came spontaneously from
tall stock, had full sized fruit in
smaller numbers, and the stalk was
stiff evough to support the fruit. It
immediately became populor and bids
fair to supplant Its parent variety for
field use, because it produces more
and better fruit to the acrs.
Sports without number have oc-
curred among the flowers and most
of us are familiar with numerous
cases of unexpected new shapes and
colorings.
Many of the finest varieties of ap-
ples and other tree fruits are of spon-
taneous origin, and we credit a num-
ber of valuable grains and field crops
to the same mysterious forces which
we know not.
DISEASE MAY BE PREVENTED
F.atal Malady of Canker Sore Mouth
Causes Extensive Loss of Little
Pigs Every Year.
The loss of little pigs from this dis-
ease annually is extensive, but largely
might be prevented by proper care.
The cause of the disease is infection
of slight scratches of the nose, mouth
anj gums by what is called bacillus
necrophorus. This germ is present
normally in the Intestines of hogs and
may be found wherever voldings have
been dropped. The disease, therefore,
is most likely to attack pigs kept in
Insanitary yards and buildings, and
the contagion lurks there from year
to year.
To prevent the disease, sows and
pigs should be provided with clean
buildings and yards. Be sure to have
the bedding fresh and dry. Pens
should be cleaned out often and kept
free from filth. . Disinfectants and
land plaster Bhould be used in tbs
pen* dally. At birth the sharp teeth
of each pig should be carefully nipped
off with sharp pinchers, but more
harm than good may follow If the
gums are cut or bruised during the
operation. Treat the cankers by
scraping each ulcer thoroughly and
a
After one year all boars should have
their tusks removed at least twice a
year. Use strong nippers or sharp
blacksmiths' pinchers.
rubbing it lightly with a lunar caus-
tic pencil. Afterward swab the af-
fected parts twice daily with a five
per cent, solution of permanganate of
potash.
HOW TO SELECT CORN EARS
FAMOUS DOCTOR'S
PRESCRIPTION.
Difficult to Distinguish Between
Breeds of Same Color—Each Va-
riety Has Characteristic Shape.
The first point in judging a sample
of corn Is to determine its trueness to
the type or breed characteristics.
There are breeds of corn, like breeds
of cattle which have peculiar colors
or forms which distinguish them. It
is difficult to distinguish between
breeds of corn of the same color, but
this may be learned by experience in
handling corn of various breeds. In
pure corn of any breed there are cer-
tain marks which may be easily rec-
ognized.
Take the shape of the ear, for ex-
ample. The ideal ear is cylindrical,
not too crooked or too tapering. It is
as difficult to find an ear of corn per-
fect in shape as It is to find cows,
horses and sheep with perfect forms.
The shape of ears of the different
FOR
YSPEPS-j
The ear at the left is too short and
thick, although good In other re-
spects, the second is a desirable ear,
the third has an enlarged butt and
irregular rows, while the fourth, st
the right, Is too slender.
varieties of corn differ as widely as
the shape and form of the different
pure breeds of cattle. Each class and
variety has a characteristic shape pe-
culiar to Itself. The most desirably
shaped ear Is cylindrical from butt to
tip. Where ears are inclined to taper,
it will be noticed that two or four
rows, as a rule, are dropped near the
middle of the ear. In Judging the
corn ear, take Into consideration the
soil and climatic conditions in which
the corn Is grown. The shape of a
desirable ear for southern or central
Illinois would differ in many respects
from the most doslrable ears for
northern Wisconsin. The shorter I
growing season in the uorth demands j
a shallower kernel and a smaller ear
to enable the corn to mature.

SAGE TEA DARKENS GRAY
HAIR TO ANY SHADE. TRY IT1
Keep Your Locks Youthful, Dark,
Glossy and Thick With Common
Garden Sage and Sulphur.
When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because it's done so naturally, so
evenly. Preparing this mixture,
though, at home is mussy and trouble
some. For 50 cents you can buy at
any drug store the ready-to-use tonio
called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy." You Just dampen a
sponge or soft brush wtyh it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By morn-
ing all gray hair disappears, and, after
another application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully darkened, glossy
and luxuriant You will also dis-
cover dandruff is gone and hair has
stopped falling.
Gray, faded hair, though no dis-
grace, is a sign of old age, and as we
all desire a youthful and attractive ap-
pearance, get busy at once with Wry-
eth's Sage and Sulphur and look years
younger.—Adv.

Why Old Backs Ache
What a pity that so many persons past
middle age are worried with lame backs,
aching kidneys', poor eyesight, sick head-
ache, dizziness, gravel, dropsy or dis-
tressing urinary ilia Kidney weaknesa
brings these discomforts in youth or age
and is a dangerous thing to neglect, for it
leads to Bright's disease and uric acid
poisoning. Doan's Kidney Pilla have
brought new strength to thousands of
lame backs—have rid thousands of
annoying urinary trouble.
