A Familiar Warning.
Mrs. Jones' favorite warning to her
young progeny when they were in
mischief was that she would tend to
them in a minute. "Tending" was ac-1
compllshed by applying her open hand
where it would do tho most good.

"I'm 'fraid of the man," he said
solemnly.
"Oh, he won't hurt you," reassured
Mrs. Jones. "Run nlong and bring
tho onions. I'm in a hurry for them."
A second time Harry disappeared
round the corner nnd a second time
returned without his purchase. j
"I'm 'fraid of the grocer man," ho .
explained as before. i
"Well, what makes you afraid of I

A Confession.
The late Father Ducey was once ;
eagerly sought, while hearing confes
sions, by an enterprising reporter for
a New York newspaper.
There was a long line of penitents
In the church, and tho reporter saw
that the only way to get a speedy hear
ing would be to get n place in the line.
At last his turn came. "Father Du

"My sou," Interrupted tho cleric,
"even that might be forgiven."
Admitted His Foolishness.
It was In Corso Payton's younger
days as a mannger, when his highly In

to distinguish him. He had appeared
iu a small city with his company and
was already indulging his habit of
making speeches beforo tho curtain.
The editor of the leading paper In the
town attended tho performance, after
which, in tho sapient manner of his
kind, he went forth nnd wrote a biting
piece for his paper, which may bo
called tho norald.
"Corse Payton," wrote tho editor, "is

like a fool."
This, thought the editor, will embar

Yet the next day the billboards boro

"Corse Payton is n fool. Herald.
"Of courso Corso Payton is n fool for

"NOTHING TO DO."
Dull Times Not Discouraging to th
Man Who Keeps Himself Busy.
Nothing wins so well ns constant
work. Often we hear a merchant com
plaining about dull times. Perhaps his
neighbor is doing n rushing business,
for tho simple reason that his neighbor
keeps busy. If customers are not com
ing in so rapidly as he might wish tho
busy man takes time to get busier and
devises some new scheme to bring
trade to the store.
Perhaps he busies himself in rear
ranging Ids goods in attractive man
ner on the shelves and in the show
cases. If he finds some of the clerks
who are complaining of Its being dull
ho immediately gets those clerks busy
getting out old goods, arranging them
in a manner that ho can carry on a
cleaning up sale to advantage.
There is always lots of work to do.
How many times do we find merchants
who complain of dullness sitting In
side nnd vainly endeavoring to look
through windows covered with dust
and dirt! How many times do we
And the raun who says there Is noth
ing to do looking nt n display of dirty
goods in the showcase!
Don't you forget It if you have any
business to look nfter you have some
thing to keep you busy nil tho time.
Nothing like keeping busy about tho
store. It is sure to pay in the end.
Even the novice can keep busy rending
some good trade paper and posting up
on commercial ideas and mako a win
ning thereby.

CUTTER FREE FROM STREAKS.
How to Prevent This Annoyance, Em
barrassing to Dairymen.
To prevent tho streaks In buttor,
which aro bo annoying to dairymen
who Bomotlmes experience this trou
ble, the buttor should be taken from
tho churn when It Is In the form of
small grains not larger than buck
whoat kernels.
The buttermilk should then be
strained off and clear water, fresh
and cold, poured on tho product
through a strainer until the water
runs qulto clear of buttermilk.
Then put the butter in a bowl or
worker and spread it sufficiently thin
so that line puro salt may be sprinkled
evenly over 1L
Turn In tho odgea and press the
butter without drawing tho ladle
over it, but simply pressing it to get
out tho surplus water, and cut It In
pieces with tho edge of the ladle.
Pour off whatever water runs from
it, then cover with n clean cloth and
set it away In a cool, dark placo. In
a few hours the salt will dissolve, the
surplus brino drains off, nnd tho salt
becomes absorbed all through li
First Prize Holsteln Calf.
When this stage has been reached,
work It over by pressure only until It
is as dry ns can bo made, then mold
it into rolls or cakes, or pack it into
palls or tubs.
In tho latter case press the butter
In solidly and pour over It a little wa
ter, which then pour off and sprinkle
a llttlo salt over It.
Exposure to light when the butter
is set away to drain after salting Is
one cause of streaks in butter. Also

washing tho butter, or Impurities in

Three Types of Dairy Farm.
Thero are three more or less dis
tinct types of dairy farming, name
ly, (1) the selling of milk and cream,
(2) tho production of milk for butter
and cheese making, and (3) tho rais
ing of pure-bred dairy stock for sale
as breeders. Generally speaking,
when dairy farming Is Intelligently
conducted It Is quite profitable, though
It requires more labor than other
forms of live-stock farming and a
larger Investment of capital. By be
ginning in a small way tho capital
necessary can be earned, and this Is
usually done by men who embark In
dairy farming. In fact, It is much
safer to begin any Intensive form of
forming on a small scale In order to
learn the details of tho business with
as little risk as possible. Dairy fann
ing maintains the fertility of the soil
perhaps better than most other types
of farming. This Is especially true
where only the coarser feeds are
grown and the concentrates are
bought. In recent years tho price of
farm labor and concentrated feeds
have risen to such an extent as to re
duce materially the profit from dairy
ing, but it Is still one of the best
forms of live stock farming for the
beginner.
By having a good garden and plenty
of small fruits, tho small dairy farm
er has most of his living at homo,
thus being assured ngalnst want. It
is best to start in with a good quality
of grade cowa rather than to begin
by purchasing high-priced, registered
stock. But it Is highly Important to
ubo puro-bred sires in building up and
maintaining tho efficiency of the herd.
Generally It is not safe to depend
upon maintaining a herd by buying
regularly. It is much more satisfac
tory to ralso the cows on the farm.
As between the various types of dairy
farming, local conditions must deter
mine which is most desirable.
Proper Amount of Salt.
Your cows will not get enough salt
by Blmply putting a lump of rock salt
In tho mangor. A cow giving a good
flow of milk, well fod, ought to have
two otincoa of salt n day, an ounco In
the morning and an ounco at night.
We would ndvlse you to glvo this to
thorn on their eusllago when you feed
cusllago and grain. You can take a
small pleco of salt In your fingers and
weigh It and will soon be able to
Judgo tho amount In an ounce.
Extra Feed.
As pasture grass becomes short nnd
killed by frosts, begin to glvo the
cows extra feed, so they will hold up
In milk. Taking the cows tito winter
in good condition, other things being
equal, will mean a steady, high milk
flow all through the winter.
Buttermilk Is mndo from skim
milk that has soured until tho casein
Is clabbered, when It la churned as
ono would for butter.

Correcting
Bad Habits Won't Do
To cure a torpid and Inactive liver, more
Is required than the mere correction of bad
habits. You change your diet, reform your
manners of living, but unless yju assist
Nature your efforts won't be a success.
When the liver and bowels arc acting
Improperly, something must be done to nut
them in condition again. There is lack of
tone in the liver action as well as in the
bowels. You feel depressed and unfiled
for work, endurance and responsibility.

part tone to a tired liver, give the push-from-bchfoid
strength to torpid musJes.
They stimulate the circulation, and make
the liver active and the bowels regular. We

wonderful results of using these pills. Here
