Dr_vde11 Grange is picking 11p :1 lively

denced by several letters :111d orders.
Like otliers, they desire that n1ille11-

have. Storms, deep snows, a11d cold
have failed to make them falter.

The business-like tone of VVaver1y
Gr:1nge’s Secretary, Miss Maude Arm-

will be seeii by :1 recent case i11 one of
the courts of St. Jo:-'1-,pl1 ()ount_v. A
saloon keeper was prosecuted for sell-
i11g liquor to :1 111i11or. A jury was im-
panelled acttording to l:1w—th:1t is, by
defe111l:u1t’s counsel, setting aside every
one known or suspected of opposition
to stiloons selling to whom they plc-::.~;e.
The boy swore positively to buying the
liquor and drinking it. Another testi-
tied to seeing him do it. The saloon
keeper and his b:1r-tender swore they
never sold liq11or to mi11or.s. The re-
sult was, the p:1cked jury rejected the
testimony of the two young men :111d
accepted tl1:1t of the defendant :111d his
b:1r-te11der, and returned :1 verdict of
“Not Guilty.” \Vill Gov. L11ce tell us
how such :1 law can be enforced?

A word :1bout our Michigan l1igl1-li-
cense law, for the especial bc11efit ofthe
f:1r111ers of the State. The l:1w pro-
vides that the liq11or tax shall go to
the corpor:1tion i11 wl1icl1 the license is
gr:111ted. This inakes it for the inter-
est of these 1111111icip:1lities to encour-
age the tr.1tIic——thc 111ore saloons, the
more money for corporation improve-
1ne11ts:111d less taxes for the citizens.
For the c.rime :1nd p:111perisn1 engen-
dered by it, the f:1rmers have to pay
their full share.

Shall prohibition be :1 success or :1
failure? This is :1. question that ap-
peals to the f:1rn1er’s pocket as well as
to the moral sense of all people. No
law c:111 be enforced u.=1less l):1cl\'e(l by a
strong public sentiment. llow shall
this be secured? Fariners :1re 11ot all
oil the right side of the saloon ques-
tion. Too many p.'1t1'oni7.e the saloon.

Fifth Degree to five applicants, after
which the Grange was closed i11 Fifth

Please allow me to correct one or
two erroncoils ide:1s:1dv:1nced i11 (fort-
land llill’s css:1y published iii the Vis-
rron Jan. 1.3. He states that "in the
.\lethodist Episcopal church :1 wo111:111
cannot be o1'd:1incd to tl1c111i11ist1'y, no
m:1ttc.r how brilli:111t her intellectual
:1tt.:1i11111e11ts or how deep her piety.”
This is :1 n1ist:1l<e. The pulpit of the
M. C. church is 11ot "barred against
wonien.” l:1111 pt.-rso11:1ll_v :1cqu:1inted
with two ver_vctlic'1e11t M. E. prcacliers
who are ladies. I l1e:1rd one of them
preach :1 few months si11cc in l{:111s:1s.
where slie l1:1d been having :1grc:1t. re-
vival. After the pre:1cl1ing service she
received no or -to into the cl111rcl1 who
were converted u11dcr her ministra-
tions as :1 preaclier of the gospel.

At tl1c great, n1issionar_v inecting ot
the M. E. (.‘l1urch held i11 Detroit last
tall the p11lpits i11 various parts of the
city were tilled by women.

I think the reason why there :1rc11ot
more women in the pulpit is because
they do 11ot choose to be there. The
fault is with them and 11ot with the
Uhurcli. 1 :1111 :1. l’atron, have been for
fourteen _ve:11‘s,:111d love t.l1ci11stit11tio11.
But I claim that 11eitl1er the Grange
nor any other rcform:1tory org:1ni7.:1tion
would ever have existed if the chris-
tian church had 11ot paved the way for
them. All moral or social reforni is
b11t the outgrowth of cliristianity.
This must be patent to every one who
will compare the moral and social eo11-
dition of the people, and particularly
of the women i11 heathen countries
with those of christian lands, even be-
fore the Grange was thought of.

How the Elm Wooed the Ivy.
I have watched from my window, day by day,
The prettiest courtship under the sun,—

Where :1 stately Elm, in his graceful way
A beautiful Ivy has wooed and won!
I had wtitclteil her grow front :1 tender shoot,
As she struggled alone through storm and
shine,
'fill she reached at last the Elm Tree’s root,
And sighed: “What a restful place to
twine.”

S0 weary and faint. all her teudrils shook,
As she sighed to herself: “I wonder if he,
So grand and stately, would ileigii to look
At a poor little stritgglittg vine like me!"
She lifted her face with {L tiittid fear,
And he graeioiisiy gave her a welcome
smile;
Thoiigh her wliisperecl words he had f£illC(l
to licnr,
His heart was answering all the while.

I listened to hear what the I‘illl1 would sii\',—
hot‘ I saw by his proud, .iilinii'iii-g _ tee,
He wit zjlnil in his heart that she mine that

 

-.i.._v,
Auil tvas thanking his fate for the litippy
elt:ii.i:e!
“You have waiiilcieti far, and are weai'_\', I

II: said with T1. ti-iitler, nssiiring smile:
“I wislt you \\‘iillltl venitire to come to me,
And rest in til_\ slielttiiiig tiinis aivliilel"

“No, no!" she tried, with :i sirtirlet face,
“\\'it are s’ti‘;iiigei's'~titid you are so tall and
f‘ iii,
VVit!t every illtilllill so full of gince-—
\\"hile I’m only an lvy—~yoti iittilt-i'st.".ttiil"
“I liiiow,“ he said, “that in-my all be true,
But I've had such :1 lonely and ilesohite
lifit;
And the ‘'5 no one else I woitld wed but you!
l'i'u_v, won’t you eotisciit to be lit) wile?"

 

    

“You generous lilinl 0, how criii you love
me!
For I am at best but :1 wortliless thing!
\Vhile you are so grand rind Mr fc above me,
And I can ilo notliing but twine and
cling!" '
Then the lilin replied iii :1 voice most clear,
As she lay at liis feet her graceful length:
“You can never know how I need you, dear!
I need your herttity, and you my strength!

“It is rill I risk of my bt'iile,” he saiil;
And ctgaiii she sliixitil; with :1 suilileti start;
But he boldly lifted .“.Cl‘tll‘0t)1)li‘.g head.
And '.il’t:\V lie‘; close to his great, warm
heart.
“I’ve 21 shelter now from the sun and lilristl"
She said, as she lifted her smiling face,
“And I am so happy to think, at last,
I have found such :1 beautiful resting
place!”

 

“How plcrisztnt it is to be sheltered here!
And liow sweet it seems to be called your
wife!
Stoop, vsltile I tell you a secret, dear:
I tiiitil; I ll’.l‘.'C loved you all tny life!“
So the iiltti-tice itooeil in his graeefitl way;
And llt:' liv yieiileil h=:i'sclfat lctigth ;
And I it riteiietl frotn my window, (lay by

Now, with our great coiiibination of useful-
fultiess,

VVe should make use of truthfulness;

And in all debate we must not each other
underrate.

Let us give to nature’s highest calling,-
knowledge;

Foi ignorance is a failing,

And a. good understanding is worth com-
manding,

To have good common-sense is no offense;

To gain which we should not mind the ex-
pense,

But be on the lookout for the pretense.

Here in no place to be “dog in the nnnger,”

ble,

But for the truth make (1 desperate scramble,

Then see if science be truly a useful hiinille,

And superstition like .1 burned out candle.

TIEIE G-RANGE VISITOR.

giscellanenus.

An Old-Fashioned Bell.

Oft poets have sung,
\’\’ith musical tongue,
Of the soul-stirring notes ofthe bells;
! if the glad, ringing peals,
That deep joy reveals
And the toiling of saddest knells.

Of the tones that call
To (lotl’s worship all,
From the height of the tall church spire;
And of those that fill,
()iir hearts with a thrill
Of fear. with their shrill cry of fne.

llut i’\'e listened in vain,
To each sweet refrain.
That up from the poei’s heart wells:
For into my soul
No glad echoes roll,
From the ring of the old cow—bell.

Could I hear but once more,
As in far days of yore,

It’s sound through the forest glade,
My heart would go back,
()’er the long, weary track

My pilgrim feet have strayed.

The cares of to-day
\\'ould vanish away,
Likelthe troubled dre'.n.n of the night;
The inorning of youth,
Seem mine in truth,
By the gleam of sweet memories’ light.

Again would I roam,
In my cliiltllioodis home,
To each spot o'er which memory broods:
To the granary gray,
V’Vliere we stored the sweet hay,
And each nook in the dear old wood.

Where I oft‘ \vliiled away,
The long suminer day,
Listening to tiie woodlaiid sounds;
in the loud, clear rap,
Of the 1‘6d-l)lrtl’S tap,
As his ivory bill rebounds;

To the jubilant songs.

Of the gaily plumed throngs,
That in niiisicai cliortises ring;

To the chattering jay,

And the cricket so gay,
And the voice of the baoiiling spring.

\\'here the squirrel so gay.
I watched hoarding away,

His store of his wintei-‘s food;
Provitiiiig with caie.
fhe choicest of fare.

For his dear, little downy brood.
\Vliei'e the long, shadows fall,
Like grim giants tall,

And niake great, ghostly bows:
Where the goblins so queer,
Through the bimiches would peer,

As we liastenetl home with the cows.

I can see her e’en now———
The stately bell-cow-
Taking the liomeward way;
\Vhile throiigli the deep dell
i\‘esouniietl the bell,
That awakened its echoes all day.

Uh, gireine the ring

()f the hell that will bring,
From otit the siiadowy past;

Such ineuiories dear,

The soul to cheer,
VVhile the journey of life shall last.

A Sharp Lesson.

“'I‘\voiity pounds fora picture fr:init- !
My do;ir l)or.i. isn't that just ii. little
exti':i\':i.g:iiit‘.”’

It w:is :ilinost. the first dcinoiistratioii
th.-it (,1i(‘t)l'g(‘ U1ll'.~‘tIll had ventured to
utter to his wife, for the glow of their
lionvyiiioon ii-id not yet llltllkl froin
tin: lll;ill‘llllt)lll>ll horizon. But he tvas
l)t:_i_g‘iiiiiiii;,r to think that the young
will-,'s hie-is were a little too high-

tonod for stlcli a limited income as
tlicirs was.
M rs. (fiirsoii turned toward him

with :i s:id, nioonligrlit sort of :i sniili.-.

"My dear (icoi'gc,'" said she, "pray
ext-ii-t-. lllt‘, but you :irt.- quite igiioiuiit
of the siiii_]«_-rt! That picture which
(lt’.ztl' liditli g_r:i\'c me for :1 wedding;

Iolllt‘ dusky occrin cavt-."’

So the cxpeiisive lraine was ordered,
and the .\lcissoniei' was sent lioino, cu-
ciisi.-d in its ;spiciidoi'.

Uld Mrs. U:ii'.~'oii Shook her hcad
when it was c:ii'ried in.

“It inay be a gem of itrt,” sriid she,

“I’in no judge of such thiiigs. But
I’m sure th-it your biisiiicss won’t stip-
port Dora it’ she keeps on at this rate.
Your gi'aii(lt'atlici"s picture that was
done by a travelling portrait painter
when we were tirst inarricd, for Intif-
a-giiiiicri, w:.s put in a plain gilt frame
that only came to liftccii sliilliiig.s.”
. “Oh, grandma i” cried Mrs. Carson,
despziiringly, “ can’t yoti iiiidci'st.-nid
that the world has altered since yott
were a girl?”

"Uh, 1 know that Well enough,”
said (Jil'ttl](llll2l. Czirson, nieditativcly,
polishing hcr spectacle glasses with
the corner of her apron. “liutl ain’t
altogether certain that it has altered
for lhc bcttcr.”

Uriuiitlnia C11l'H()ll, bless her kindly
old htnrt, had many doubts and fczirs
as to the way in which her graiidsoii
and his witc were beginning their ca-
rccr.

“ Bl‘llSl-.lelB carpets all over the house,”
said she. “Ki(idci'iriiiisitei' was good
enough in my day, with druggct on
the ls‘l.:lll'B and oilclotli in the hall,
so that you could scrub ’em tip, once it
Week, and make sure you were clean.
And Dora has got ebony cabinets to
hold china and stuff, Where I used to
be satisfied with a wooden corner cup-
board. And there are curtains strung
up before every door, and fans tucked
in every hole and corner, until I fairly
ache to go and fold ’em all up and put
’em away. But this picture business
out-does everything. Whatl New
cut-rant-colored plush coverings for

the furniture! VVhy, Dora, tli(-i'eain’t

That very .-it'tei'noon <llt‘l'lil’.~' oliii-t-iis
took posscssioii of Illt‘ lioiisc. and the
Iiiniily slept in tllll_L‘_\' li>tigiiig_rs in :1
but-k sti't-ct, in Illooni-biir_\’.

Dora went to llt.‘l' liiisliziiitl the l1(‘.\’l
day.

“All, (}voi';r<r,” "what should I o\'0i'

So the young: people went out to the
old lioiisc on the otlgc of the coiiiiiioii,
and tiii-i'c they liorrriii the world anew,

“I)t.‘?ll‘ ;;'i':tiidiii:t," aid I.lor.i one (l‘t_\'_.

“But doii’t think so now,” said Dora.
“I am so much happier l1t‘l'(', and

sunburncd and licaltliy.”

“You are both of you conttentcd,

ly away.

“0li,ycs,qiiite,” said Dora, giving
the old lady’s withcrcd hand a little
sq ticc7.c.

“Well tlicn;”said old Mrs. Carson,
“I will tell you a secret, tlicrc are two
thoiisand pounds in the bank which I
have been s:1viii<_r u p for Gcoi'gc to be-

“Keep it thcrci” said George,
promptly. “I am satisfied with be-

ing clerk.”

"And what does Dora say.” asked
the old lady.

“Dora Siiys the sanic,” declared the
young’ Wife. “She is quite, quite sat-
istiod.’

Grandina Carson smiled. The les-
son of adversity had not been in vain.

“The picture that I can see at sunset
from this back window is lovelicr than
all the Mcissouiers in the World,” said
Dora.

“I think so, too,” said George; but
in his secret heart he believed that the
happy light in Dom’s eyes was a fairer
and sweeter picture still.

What reason can be given in support
of the internal revenue system that
brings in every year millions of money
for which the government has no use?

Frost, of Elmira, N. Y., that all Land
Grant Colleges ll1.‘llllI.alIl0(l under the
act of 1862 “join together and erect a
suitable inontiinciit over the reinaiiis of

He believes in education-—bnt educa-

But of all things the most I would have you
beware ,

()l' breathing the [‘.()iSt)n of once breathed air.

When in bed, whether out or at houie you
may be,

Always open the windows and let it go free.

\\"itli clothing and exercise keep yotirselves
warm,

And change your clothes quickly if caught
in a storni,

For :1 cold cauglit by chilling the out.~.ide

All you who thus kindly take care of your

And attend to its wants without and within,
Ncttl never of cholera feel any fears,
And your skin in-.1y last you zt hundred years.

and baby doesn’t go to sleep. Mother,

G-BANG-E VISITOR.

games’ gepartmmt.

The I-fashions’ Bride.

I met one eve at a banquet rare,

The belle of all who hail gathered there.
She passed about with a stately tread,

A conscious poise of her liauglity head.
\Villi an empty smile she'd nod and pass;
They’d all exclaitit, what it pretty lass!
And each in his unit did stand asiile,

To yield a place to the fasltit,»tis‘ bride.

I stood iii a corner quite alone,

And gazed on hm, “I-11» with splendor shone.
“Not a face more fair the morning‘s sun
Has seen since his weary cotirse begun,”
Said :1 friend to tne, who stood close by,
And he seemed to wait for my reply.

“V\'hat has she done?" I ventured to say,
VVhen he turned from me his head away.

I asked him again, “\Vliat has she done

To turn the heads of every oite?”

“Done?” said the man, in complete surprise,
Have yott seen,likc liers,hattds,face or eyes?"

l\.y“mind front that gay and festive scene,
V\'ent back to a scene far more seretie,
Anti saw, all wrinkled with age and care,
The hands and face of iuy mother there.

I shed a tear and I breathed a sigh;

I saw a face that will never die,

A hand tltat was neither snnill nor white,
A dim eye sunken which once was bright,
’Tw:is a sight more beautiful to me

Than ever again on earth l’ll see.

The “I:ashions’ Bride,” with her stately tread
\Vill not he missed when she is dead;
She will leave on lifels pages, seared and hot,
A name that will be reniembered not.

The hantlsomest face on earth to me
Has exei‘ been, and will ever be,

The face of my mother, pure and true,
\Nho did all my \'ll"llC.\' kindly view;
And my faults she'djust as kindly scan,
And to over.:oine them all she"'d plan.

You may take the gold and the diamonds, too,
They are only worn life's journey through.
The grandest prize man has on earth

Is the gentle one who gave him birth.

I would ‘-.ath€i' die with life a blot,

Than live forever where she is not;

For in all my troubles here oit earth,

Of feelings pure there has been a dearth.
Those I wonid like tne to praise, not blame,
Were the first to doubt when trouble came.

Don’t wottder then, as I rush along,

In search of wealth, ‘mid the busy throng,

That I f ii to find in any place

The beauties seen in my mother’s' face.
——J. M. Hill, in Chicago Inter Ocean.

T he Bravest Battle.

The l1l‘:i\'t’.\t battle that ever was fought!
Shall I tell you where and when?

On the inapi fthe world you will find it not;
It was fought by the mothers of men.

Na_\, not with cannon, or battle shot,
\"i'"itlt sword, or noble pen;

Nay, not with eloquent word, or thought,
I"roin the mouths of wonderful men.

But deep in a waked-tip woinan’s heart-
Uf woman that would not yield,

But bravely, silently, bore her part—
Lo! there is the battle field.

No niarsltaling troop, no ltivouac song,
;\"o britincr to gleam and wave!

But, oh! these liatticaz, they last so long———
Froin babyhood to the grave!

 

Whither? Onward!

Turn.tut n,nty wheel‘. All things must change
To r()n‘ttf[ilIllg new, to soinething strange.
Nothing that is can pause or stay;

The tnooit will wax, the moon will wane,
The utisi anti clotitl will turn to rain,

The rain to mist and cloud again;

To morrow be to-day.

stay the desolation of the evils.”

Evcrywltcre womttnkind is moving
on. Her ability is an accepted fact and
must soon be it recognized one. An old
nursery rhyme runs thus:

“There once was a man who said, ‘Fools!’
And opposed reforms, railroads and schools;
He stood in the way,

But the train did not stay‘,

It ran over the man who said, ‘Fools.’ ”

Man is grown wary. He is getting-

out of the way of the on-moving train
of popular sentiment. He sees it is re-
aiatless, manned from engine-cab to
palace car with women of the nine-

teenth century. It is dawning on him
and on thousands of these woinen’s un-
a.w:i.kened sisters, that to-day is not
yesterday, and that to-moi-row will
never be to-day over again. New ques-

A Novel Recipe.

Miss (‘orson said in the Baltiinorc
C()()l\’lll_'_{ School that 2!. Batltlllltlrtt l‘l(I_\’
had wr"ittctt :1 recipe for cooking hus-
bands so HS to itrtkc tltetri tender zind
good. It is as follows:

“A good many llllFlI)‘ul(IS are utterly
spoiled by misttriiirigcincitt. Some
women go about it as iftitcir lIllSl):lHtIS
were bla.ddci's,attd ltlow tltcin tip. Oth-
ers keep them t-oitstitittly in hot. wttter;
others lct. thciti freeze by their care-
lessttess and iitditl'ct-eitcc. Sonic keep
them in 8 stew by iri'it.atiitg ways and
words. Utlters roast them. Some keep
thent itt pickle all their lives. It can
not be supposed that any IlllSl):lIltl will
be tcitder and good iiniiittgcd in this
w:i_v,but they tire 1'c:illydclicioii£~I when
properly tI'(‘,:li0(I. In selecting your
IlllSi)tlli(l you should ttot be guided by
the silvery appeziinttce, as in buying
mackerel; itor by the golden tint, as it'
you wanted salmon. Be sure and se-
lect him yourself, as tastes differ. Do
not go to the market for ltittt, as the
best are always brought to your door.
It is far better to have none unless you
will patiently learn how to cook him.
A pl‘(:Slfl'\’Illg kettle of the finest por-
cclain is best, but. if you have nothing
but an earthenware pipkin, it will do
with care. See that the linen in which
you wrap him is nicely washed and
mended, with the requimd number of
buttons and strings nicelv sewed on.
Tie him in the kettle by 8 strong silk
cord called comfort, as the one called
duty is apt to be weak. They are apt

and crusty on the edges, since, like
cabs and lobsters, you have to cook
them while alive. Make a clear, steady‘
tire of love, ncatness and clteert'i1lness.
Set hitn as near this as: seeitts to agree
with ltitit. If he splitters and tizzlcs,
do itot be anxious. Sonic ltusbitnds do
this till they are quite done. Add a
little stigzir in the fornt of What‘ con-
fct-.tiottt-rs call kisses, but no viitt-gal‘ or
pepper on any aceoititt. A littlt-spice
iittprovcs tltcnt, but it ittiist be used
with jiid_~_t'ntcnt.. Do itot stix-I; any
sltzirp instrtitiicnt into ltitti to see if he
is bccoitiing tender‘. Stir ltiitt _<.:'entl_v:
wzitclt the while.lest he lie too tl:tt :iitd
close to the kctt,lc.:i1ttl so lti-t-oittc itse-
li-ss. You v:ntnot fail to know win-it in-
is done. If thus ti't-atvtl. you will litid
hint very (ll_‘_’,"‘.‘.\'lll)lt‘, :igt'i-ciitg nii-t-l_\'

keep as long as you w:ini, iinli-ss you

which the ?‘»‘.:t-ti-r Artist produces the
i)t3.’1lllIi"lll tint of lie-.tlth in plant or

\Vhen I pass :l ltoitse on tltesc winter
days and see the blinds thrown open,
the citrtaitts tlI':l.\VIl, thus sceittingly
inviting in those blessed rays wltich
llltllitl the inside life worth living, I
think, Here is 8 family who show their
appi'et-iatioii of (}od’s goodness by ac-
cepting in fullest nieasitre this, his di-
vincst of gifts.

0, this winter sunshine is too pre-
cious to be shut out by even the
giiiiziest of drzipcries, and I can not
resist the teniptzttioit oit soinc of our
briglitest days of opening wide the
south door tit midday to let in, t"or a.
tiine,a great broad beam of lt1‘iglit1ieRs.

My (I(3:tl‘ friend, whoever you tire,
wlto closes the blind or lowers the
sltside to give 3. pretty eticct to some
painting or to preHci'vc2i. Ilétll(ISOIllC
cut-pct, yoti are shutting out life.

Whittier tells of the furin houses of
hiilfzt century ago as “blistering in the
noonday sun.” I believe the “white-
soulcd poet” would prefer the “blister-
ing of the noondziy suit” to the mold-
ering in mid-day shade which, sur-
rounding some homes, allows no ray of
sunlight ever to reach its Walls.

I do not decry the tree and the vine,
and I only Wish that farmers as it class
would give more time and care to
these things which are so easily ob-
tained and which add so much to home
surroundings; but trees or vines, no
matter how great their beauty or at-

traction, if put in a proper place are

to fly out of the kettle and be burned "

evils in disguise if they shut out beau-
tiful views or prevent the approach of
sunshine to the house.

Those Whose houses face the son th

have great good fortune. Our
living rooms, zind, more than
all, oitr sick rooins, shou Id be in

the “sunny soutlt” of our ltoit.-it-s. Phy-
sicians recogitize this need and give

That filled my heart that day,

As clasped within my feeble arms,
You breathed your life away.

 

 
 

That life was light unto my soul,
And when friends gently said,

“You can not bring him back to life,"
My heart was cold and dead.

I miss thee so in our once happy home,
When the daylight cares are (fer;

Alas! I shall hear it no more.

Since thou hast gone away‘,

There is nothing left to lll£1lv£E my heart glad
I am waiting (lay by «lay.

VVaiting and watcliiiig for thee to come,
But thou wilt never conic to lllii more;
They tell me thou art waiting for me,
Beyond, on that bright, bright shore.

There’s an empty chair at our family llO'.lI‘(l,
A vacant seat at our licartli;

VVe miss thy loving cotiiisel, too,

And thy cheering, joyous inirth.

No one, but (iml and our LIllll(ll‘t‘l‘l,
Kiiows how happy was our lioine:
But, oh! since tiioti hast gone away,

This powder has been in use many years.
it is largely used  the fainiers of Pennsyl.
vrinia, and the Patrons of that State have
purcliased over 100,000 pounds through their
purcliasiiig agents. Its composition is our sc-
crct. The recipe is oti every box and 5—pound
package. It is made by Dr. Olierholtzefs
Sons & C0 , Pliteiiixville, Pa. It helps to di-
gest and assiiiiilute the food. Horses will
(lo more work with less food while using it.
Cows will gin: more milk and be in better
condition. It keeps poultry healthy .iii«l in—
creases the I)l'HflllCllUll of eggs. It is also of
great value to them while iiiolting. Itis sold
