D. A. Charlton, of Maddens

The fruit is of a Russian variety,

came from the tree. Mr. Charl

cept Mr. and Mrs. Steveus and
their daughter; but soon neigh
bors began to arrive and worked
bravely to save the farm build
lugs, which fortunately was ac
complished. The cause of the
tire is supposed to have been
spontaneous combustion, as the
top of the stack was covered with
boards.
The best remedy we know of
in all cases of Kidney and Jilad

They are antiseptic and at once
assist the kidneys to perform

you ask for these pills, bo jxisi
tive that you get DeWitt's Kid

are imitations placed upon Rale
to deceive you. (iet Do Witt's.
Insist upon them, and If your

Is She Working
Herself to Death
Does your wife complain of too
much dairy work? Do you ever hear
her say she'll never get through
washing milk things? How often
does she say, ' Oh, if I only had
fewer pans, crocks- and cans to
wash, I could reaJ, write or sew
more, or even take a little rcsteach
day."
AN EASIER TIME.
Ask her about it. Arrange to make
the dairy work one half easier, one
half neater, one half more pleasant, and 2.i to 1.10 per cent, more prof
itable by using a Sharpies Tubular Cream Separator Until you try
the Tubular, you can't imagine tha difference it makei. It skims the
milk immediately after milking there's no milk standlrg around
no cans or pans to w ash The Tubular is entirely di!Te.,ei.t from all
others, so much more simple and convenient. Jirin your wifo and
