in the back, headaches and dizzy

found such great relief that I con-
finued, and inside a comparatively
short time was entirely rid of kidney

Sand Care For Dyspepsia.
A number of persons in West-
chester, Pa., who are sufferers from
stomach troubles are trying the sand
cure. The sand, so a dispatch tells
us, comes from Mississippi in bags
of two quarts each. It is takem in
doses of a teaspoonful, and as often
as the patient feels trouble coming.
‘When any animal has an attack
of stomach trouble,” argues one of
e believers in the cure, “it goes
at once to the ground for some clay
or sand, and why should not a man?”
Why not, indeed? There is no
reason under the sun for many's
going elsewhere than to the ground
for a cure when he has stomach
trouble, unless it be that when man
has stomach trouble he is more un-
reasonable than at any other time.
The sand cure will appeal strong-
ly to the great majority of people
whose stomachs are all right, and
in time these people, thelr
stomachs go wrong, may, by
exercise of will power, convince
themselves that duty to themgelves
and to their famiiies, to nothing

TO PROTECT THE LAND.
The moving of soil by water is not
eonfined to lange streams, as many
farmers know to thelr sorrow. Ev-
ery tiny rill tricking down the slope
carries off some of the finest and
richest soil on the farm After a
teavy rain the spring is roily and
the puddles in the hollows are mud-
dy with it. The furrows left
up and down the slope by the cull
vator teeth become minature water
courses, and the trickling water ex-
acts a tribute of rich soil before it
joins the large rill by the road. The
soil of the cornfield that was left
bare all winter has lost some of its
best loam by planting time. Gullies
appear on the farm here and there,
widening and deepening after every
rain. The soil on the knolls and hill-
sides becomes thin and yellow; for
the rich, black surface soil has been
washed into the bottoms, and part of
it has hurried off to help build up
some excellent farming land about
ten miles down stream.
