For cases of diarrhoea, a diet of boiled rice is excellent. A little vaseline placed on the ton- gue is excellent for pip. An English cure for roup is three drops of camphor on a piece of bread. Linseed meal will promote diges- tion and regulate the bowels. Citrine ointment is recommended | for chickenpox. One part cedar oil and two parts vaseline make an ointment, recom- mended in cases of sorehead or chick- enpox. A teaspoonful of fenugreek daily in the soft feed, for ten fowls, is ex- cellent for digestion. a Chopped up pumpkin seed is said to be a good remedy for tape worms in poultry. Another preventive of bowel trouble is a teaspoonful of Venetian red in a gallon’ of drinking water. Bowel trouble in chicks is often checked by mixing a little granlated charcoal in the soft feed. Nothing is better for a badly torn comb or wattles than to wash the sores with whiskey; after which coat with vaseline. : . For constipation, ten drops of sul- phate of magnesia to each pint of drinking water is recommended. TO EXTRACT FOWL’S SINEWS Operation Is Not Easy at.Best and Is Extremely Difficult for Any Inex- perienced Person. For some ways of preparing a fowl it is advisable to remove the sinews of the bird, but this is an operation that is not easy at best and that is extremely difficult for an inexperi- enced person unless he or she might Extracts Fowl’s Sinews. have one of the devices invented by a New Hampshire man. To a box at tached to the wall are two claw arms, one of them stationary and the other yieldingly affixed by a strong spring. A horizontal arm that is hinged to the wall near the floor is attached by a chain to the spring claw arm. The chicken’s leg is thrust up through the spring arm and the claw made fast to the stationary arm. Pressure of the foot on the horizontal arm below pulls the fowl down, but the sinews that lead from the claw into the leg are stripped cleanly from the flesh. Hard Soap. Soap that is allowed to dry and harden lasts twice as long as if used when fresh. Therefore, it is cheaper fo buy in quantities and keep it in a CASTORIA lace. dry | RECENT MARRIAGES IN THE COUNRY.

No Diff rence. The Proof is Here the Same is Everywhere. For these who seek relief from kid- ney backache, weak kidneys, blad- der ills, Doan’s Kidney Pills offer hope of relief and the proof is here in Meyersdale the same as every- where. Meyersdale people have used Doan’s and Meyersdale people recommend Doan’s the kidney rem- edy used in America for fifty years. Why suffer? Why run the risk of dangerous kidney ills—fatal Bright’s disease. Here’s Meyersdale proof. Investigate it. W. T. Jones, Méyersdale, Pa., says: “One of our family was feeling very bad about six months ago. His back ached terribly, he could’t sleep and’ was so lame in the morning that he couldn’t bead over to tie his shoes. He saw Doan’s Kindey Pills adver- tised and got a box. This one box cmred him. He always recommends Doan’s Kidney Pills to his friends.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Jones recommends.
