Mrs. Clius. Keeling, sen.. Owen Sound, Out, writes: “It. is a pleas- ure to tell what great benefits I have derived from the use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. I am fifty-five years of age, and for about five years my life was one of great suf- iex‘ing from nervousness, weakness and extreme ph'ysical exhaustion. I could not sleep, and hot flushes would pass thrcugh my body from By supplying an abundance of rich, red, lifeâ€"sustaining blood, this great food cure helps women to pass in safety the periods of trial in their “vas.

Many women date their illnea and suflering from the period of change of life. Buffered From Nervousness and Extreme Physical E Recommends Other Women to Use In cold, windy weather or rainy, chilly weather, I find by having my preparation cooked aad warmed is an inducement to eat heartin and almost as freely as in fair weather. I keep salted ashes always in a trough so th'ey liave free access to it. 1 sprinkle everything they use frequently with crude carbolic acid. The best argument that, I can proâ€" duce or muster up in favor of cooked feed for a change is that I am not If roof is low you will fail to clean the room. It, is just as essential to have a warm place for hogs to eat In during winter. If you feed in the cold wind during a bad spell of weather and the hogs hold their own you are a lucky feeder. Weigh 'your hogs before and after and note the consequences. The waterng troughs of the feeders are generally oneâ€"half full of mud. Keep them clean and during very cold windy days place them on feeding floor where they can eat, drink and sleep warm and snug. Gritical Tme at Changg @‘f Lfé First have large room with roof not less than 8 feet higH, ventilaâ€" tion along eaves of roof for dry, warm sleepirg quarters. Then do not be too fastidious to get in fre- quently and sweep it perfectly clean. Shake bedding of straw up frequent- ly and also ease when prevailing by feeding it. Feed the cooked material warm and see that each animal gets a. share, three or four times a week. I often feed it every day and especially durâ€" ing cold weather. I also put it in the watering troughs to keep the water from freezing. Trials have proved that hogs like cooked feed better with the lye than without it. I would not be without a feed Cooker even though intending to keep but a few hogs. One sow and 'her furrow kept in a healthy condition with cooked feed is sufficient satisâ€" faction for the investment. My prin- cipal aim in feeding cooked food is to keep the animal healthy and for a change as an appetizer. The cooli- er can also be used for a number of other purposes. Fuel is not an ex- pensive featurc, provided attention is given the damper and the kind of fuel used. Burn cobs, and when a. good bed of coals is secured place in a. few large chunks of coal or a few large sticks of wood, close the dam-i per and they will hold a, good fire for a long time.

Every soldier, sailor, and policeman is obliged to perfect himself in the system. A Japanese policeman possessed of the art has been known single-handed to A knowledge of jiuâ€"jitsu enadles one almost instantly to convince his op- ponent that it is useless to fight. There are new schools of jiuâ€"jitsu ev- As there could not always be war on hand, and as it was considered beâ€" neath the dignity of the Samurai to go into any ordinary calling, it came about naturally that these little knights found much idle time on their hands. Being men of war, they turned their attention to athletic feats. One among the Samurai conâ€" ceived the idea of learning by prac- tice the location of every sensitive nerve and muscle in the body. After that he discovered all the joints of the bones that couln be seized in such a. way as to give momentary power over the muscles of an adâ€" versary. He practiced with his felâ€" low Samurai, and thus by degrees was developed the most wonderful system of athletics known in the world. The Japanese call this work jiu~jitsu. The deft pressures applied in the practice of jiu-jitsu produce only momentary pain, but do not really injure the muscles or nerves. In all other things the Japanese are the most polite people in the world; so it follows that even in their fighting they have adopted a. humane yet efâ€" fective method of selfâ€"defence. They do not strike out with the clenched fist and seek to bruise, as do the An- gloâ€"Saxons in their boxing contests. Method of Defence Used Eifectively by Policemen. More than 2,500 years ago there sprang into existence in Japan on ‘order of knights who were known as the Samurai. To them were impartâ€" ed all the learning, the polite breedâ€" ing and the forms of superiority that mark the gentleman. They were skillâ€" ed in arms and versed in the arts of war, for they were the Emperor’s fighting men, and none but they were allowed to bear arms. Wool is a product that Hoes not take fertility from the soil like grain growing, but uCtually adds to the value of the soil for growing grass. Sheep to fatten the most, rapidly and on the least, grain must be kept quiet and not be allowed to run 9ver so much ground as to run the flesh off them. Give the yearling sheep exfil‘a. at- tention us sheep generally require more care and better feed lat this age then later. Sheep should be kept in small flocks during the winter, and be fed grain in roughs and roughness in racks. Wool soaked with water chills the skin of the sheep, while a coat of dry wool will protect it. against the severest col'd. The permanent fertility of a, farm is increased to u great extent by the number of sheep kept, on 'the farm. It is always good economy to pro- vide plenty of bedding for sheep as they will keep healthier and thrive better. Sheep are the most dimcult ani- mals to put into a good condition and it, will be easier to keep the flock thrifty. Sheep will appear to a better ad- vantage if graduatea according to the Sim, kind and quality. Medium sized sheep usually have the best and 'hoavicst flecres. Roots are indispensable in feeding sheep. Overfee'ding is as bad as unacr- feeding. For poor lands and short, pastures sheep are better than cattle. The best sheep is the most profit,- able one under all circumstances. With sheep a. chance of rough food is as essential as well as of grain. All flocks should be graded accord- ing to age, size and condition as far as possible.
