Bad Spells " I suffered, during girlhood, from womanly weakness,** writes Mrs. Mollie Navy, of Walnut, N. C "At last, I was almost bed-ridden, and had to give up. We had three doctors. All the time, I was getting worse. I had bad spells, that lasted from 7to 28 days. I h one week, after I gave Cardui a trial, I could eat, sleep, and Joke, as well as anybody. In 8 weeks, I was well.

By Walter K. Towers, A. 8., J. D., of the Michigan Bar. One noon while Jason Edwards waH sitting on the porch ot his prosperous farm home, resting be- fore l\e returned to the fields,' a shiny top buggy drawn by a one legged bay drew int the side yard and a brisk young man descended. He presente dthe card of the Na tional Silo Company, and solici ted ati order. Mr. Edwards needed a silo and signed an order for one, to be erected later. He read the order carefully and noted its contents. It clearly read as an or der for a silo, for the erection of of which, if completed within 60 days after date he was to pay SIOO.OO. No silo appeared, nor could Mr. locate the company, but he saw nothing to worry about until, sixty days later, a near-by bank presented to him for payment a note for 1100.00 in regular form and bearing his signature. He protested that he signed no note yet acknowledged that it was his signature. Examination showed that.it was one end of the silo order he had signed. It had been ao worded and arranged that one end be cut off leaving a prom issory note in regular form. The bank Insisted that it had paid full price for a regular note, and as it was a "negotiable instrumefiV' it was protected ns a bona fide holder. Edwards sought advice and being told that he would have to pay the note did so. Proper advice by a competent attorney woul'd have probaly saved Edwards |IOO since few states will support such a note, algited under such circumstances. True, if one is induced to sign a negotiable promissory note through fraud and that note la aold in ordinary course to a bank or individual, the purchaser ac cepting It In perfect honesty and good faith, paying full value for an apparently regular Instrument that is not yet due, the quality of negotiability is such that the pur chaser will have better rights than 4 the rogue who trasferred It. In v deed, under such circumstances, the signer would have to pay the note. But rightly viewed, the case of Jason Edwards Is not such a case. He was not induced by frsud to sign a note, because he did not sign a note. What he signed was an order. Having never signed a note but something en tirely different which was chang ed into a note, he ia no more liable than if his signature waa forged to a regular note. Yet it la not atrange that many lay men have confused this rule and suffered needlessly when some of oar courts have made the mis take. The other side of the picture la the practiced on Allan Mc- Qoorty and wife. Again a bug gy came down the road, bnt It waa driven wildly by an attract ive young man. and hia arm clung t) n young woman. They paua- H"a I t hoepltable looking house In i*fu|tc and told of eloping from a cruel father. Now, all I the world lovei ■ lover, and the McOoorty'e were all assistance. Opportunely, quite by accident, of couree, a clerical looking gen tleman appeared from the other direction. Yea, he would marry tham, and did—at leaat he went through the ceremony. Of couree the bride wept, ao did Mr*. Mc- Goortty, and Mr. McOoorty blew hla BOM and found hia eyea a bit dim. In the confualon, the "Rev erend" remarked that the wit neon rauat aign the certificate, and puahed a paper towarda them which they readily aigned. Three montha later a bank pro duced the "marriage Certificate" for payment. It waa a regularly drawn note for 9M0.00. McOoorty had to pay it, aa he waa legally i. ' liable. He had committed the fault of falling lo read whsths I aigned. In hia case he actually aigned a note. Of courae neither the "Reverend" nor hia confeder ate could have collected from the MOoorty's, but they had nego tiated the note at the bank, wheh having nothing to arouae ita aua |fe, plciona, and knowing McOoorty'e signature purchased it for ita fall '' value, whereupon the "Reverend" - and hia friends moved on to try ■few, their scheme in virgin soil, taking £ & -ewe well way when the fraud possible must foot the bill. A similar result followed in the, case of Clarence Tucker, who pur chased and accepted a barrel of medicated calf meal, giving his note for fIO.OO therefor. The botr torn two-thirds of the barrel prov ed filled with sawdust, but by that time the bank had purchased the note and the agent had vanished. Tucker was legally bound to pay tne note. The* vendor of the meal could not have recovered the sum, but again the quality of ne gotiability protected the innocent purchaser, and the man who sign ed the noff had to pay it. He had signed a note, and It having come Into the hands of an inno cent third party In due course of business, his liability was set tled. So when you algn ■ prominory note, drawn in the familiar form —aizty day* after date, for value received, I promiie to pay to the order of John Doe, the lum of One hunded Dollar* with intereit at alx percent per annum—remem ber that it ii negotiable, and ao ii great deal like money, in that it may be freely passed from hand to hand by limple endoraement on the back, and the man who cornea by It honestly haa full rights aginst the peraon who aigna It. In order to poaaeaa this quality of negotiability—to be able to pass from one to another by simple en dorsement, giving to the person receiving it these superior rights —a note muat conform to cer tain legal requirementa. These are stated In the Negotiable Inatru ments Law. a uniform act which has been ylopted in similar form by practically *ll the statea. In general the note muat be In writ ing and aigned by the maker. Writing In ita legal aenae includes printing, llfftographa, etc., and the the signature may be an abrevia- Mon or a "mark". Further to be negotiable it muat contain an un conditional promise to pay a cer tain aum In money. There must be no "if about the promise to pay. Alao It muat be to pay mon ey and not potatoea or naila. If you are having the houae shingled and want to prevent the nego tiating of a note you may give ao that no one may aecure from it better righta than the carpen 'ter to whom you give it, you may do so by atating in the note that you promiae to pay upon condi tion that the barn ia shingled In accordance wit h the agree ment. / To be negotiable a note nfcust be payable on demand, or at\ a fixed or determinable future time. Naming a future date for pay ment, of course, fixes the time. So, too, it ia regarded aa a fixed time if payment la to be made at the happening of an event that Is CERTAIN to occur. Sixty days from date la a determinable fu ture time. Puither, It muat be payable to order or to bearer, theae words of negotiability being neceaaary that the inatrument may poaaeaa that quality. So notes are written, "pay to the order of John Smith", and not )uat "pay to John Smith." A note lacking the above re quirementa of negotiability may atill be a good contract, enforce able between the original parties according to Ita terma. But If the note be not negotiable, and the man who made It haa been awtn dled, he may make thla defenae agalnat the peraon to whom he he gave it. A parson who Intends to bind himself by the note simply algns his own name. But mlstakea are made by agents who do not in tend to bind themsalvss parson ally, but only their principals. Do not sign "John Jones, Agent for Samuel Smith," for that makes John Jones personally liable; but sign, "Samuel Smith by John Jones, Agent." A somewhat dif ferent rule prevails In the case of public officere, for one acting In a public capacity may sign his own name as officer and bind his The notee of corporations and partnerships are signed by an of ficer or agent of the corporation or member of the partnership in I the name of the company. A rep resentative or partner who ia held out to the world aa havlag au thority to aign notes, may hind the company even though ha may have exceeded his authority. So if yoil are a partner, be cautioui of the public authority that is gir ep, really or apparently, to a partner whom you do not truel Health And Hygiene. Hasp Year Mosey. A new fake consumption cure in born every week, and, a* some one said, a sucker is born every min ute. Supply and demand, In these, two Instances, seem to run riot. The supply of unfortunate con sumptives and the demand for these false "cures" are rivals. The race Is nip and tuck. | But how are we going to head off such a race? Pure food and drug laws get an occasional fakir, but It' Is only an occasional one, scarcely a drop in the bucket. With all "consumption cures" founded on fraud and flourishing on fear, the ever hopeful but sus ceptible consumptive is robbed of his money and robbed of his chance of life. But what care the "consumption cure" companies? It is good business. The only prevention for such wholesale robbery is EDUCATION. Yes Just that. Education will banish the old superstition that for every ailment there is a spe cific. Education will teach those having consumption that their on only assurance of cure lies in their strict obedience to the laws of hy giene, with unlimited fresh air, rest and food. When this is done, why, there will be no more de mand for patent medicine con aumption cure*, and the dastardly business'will stop. But we must educate, and the only way to 'do this effectively, ia through health departmenta, town, county and Stage. 0 (Me To The Ply. Moat injurious typhoid fly, Drink with you no more will I.

James Bryce on the eve of his deparure (or home after six years ,as Ambassador to the United -•States from Great Britain, said his farewell to the American people tonight in an address here before the Pilgrim Society of the United States. He referred with feeling 'to his cordial relations with the three President*, who have been in office during his service in Washington and saidL he had no to convey' his sense of the kind ness with which he had been re ceived during his travela in Amer ica. Four trips acroaa the con tinent and visits to every State in the Union, he said had given him acquaintances in all sections. Referring to the friendship ex isting between America and Great Britain, Mr. Bryce expressed the hope that this might be extended to embrace other countries. He did not touch directly upon any issue now pending between Amer ica and the British Governments. This statement, however, was re garded as significant. "With good will and with a con viction that one of every nation's highest assets is that sense of national honor which will make it live up to its international obliga tions, all questions between na tions can be adjusted and I am sure that any question between your country and mine will be ad justed in that way.

In the selection of a stallion it Is Im portant to see that the horse has a stout constitution or his emasculated sons will not be valuable or profitable, writes W. It. tillliert In Farm Journal. This matter of appetite and digestion should in the stallion represent a very full and greedy habit, as the sire does not usually do the severe work which impairs the digestion of the gelding. When a colt Is added to the list of geldings his vital forces are thereby materially reduced, bis bodily strengtii Is lowered, bis digestion Is never again so good, and big circulation may yet be healthy, but it Is milder. If a gelding be a gross feeder this troublesome excess woyld have been 'more pronounced had he been preserv ed entire. If a stallion be a light feed er his stock can never be worthy of stable room. Whaterer else be over looked, at least have the common necessaries of a back, body and limbs, and If you must risk something let It be the frontage. The hind or propelling part is the motive power, and without it there Is no push. Blze Is an Impor tant element, but a leggy horse Is high-, ly objectionably. Not only the stallion, but the brood mare of any type, should have a consti tution .the vigor of which cannot be doubted.

"Any small unsoundness In the mare's respMtory organs will not be small in her sons or daughters. There Is everything In heredity, even bad hat/Its, such as running away or kick ing in harness. An 111 mannered mare may breed a good, tough, sound youngster, but her Ally foals should be bioken In very early In life and before they got strong and resolute. The Oily foul of a kick ing cart mare should go iu the plow team at eighteen months, then she is readily managed. But if you'wait an other year she may give much trouble Very few geldings kick In any tackle. Handling ths Milkars. Provided (but they have always been kindly treated, dairy cows are general ly no trouble to milk. AS a rule, the] appreciate being milked. You very of ten notice a cow will start chewing her cud when she is being milked, which is a sure sign of contentment, this being •specially noticeable In the case of very ' beavy milkers, wblcb get tbelr ressel much distended from one milk ing to another.

Raw potatoes are good and very cooling. Not many should be fed in the raw state. I know one man, who kept two horses. One was a pretty big horse and the other w6s a small horse. Raw potatoes were fed every nlgbt to ttfese horses, to the big horse sixteen and to the small one'twelve. This was a fair proportion. Brood mares should be kept sharply Shod in winter, ua a struggle to keep their feet on ice or slippery roads may cause abortion. Cold. Icy water Is dan gerous, as It may caupe colic and eventually abortion. Mares in foal, while better for being worked moder ately, should be kept out of deep snow. Plynrfng and struggling In deep snow •re very dangerous. When there la Imminent danger of the mare aborting through slipping on Ice, plunging in deep anow, hard driv ing or otherwise, soft feed should be withheld and the mare given kiln dried gralb. Whole wheat dried In the oven of the kitchen stove Is an old estab lished preventive feed. It has long been a practice with ua to feed this dried wheat to the mare after a bard drive or at any time that abortion Is apprehended. While I have known our mares to abort several times. 1 never, knew any of them to abort after get ting preventive feeds of dried wheat. If wheat Is not at hand, dried barley Is good, or even dried oata. With care and the exerlcse of com mon sense there should be little dan ger of a mare with foal doing all kinds of work and even driving If she la a general purpose mare. Tanked* For Hogs. I have fed tankage to bogs of all ages for the Inst thirteen years with the best results lu every case, says John H. Dunlap lu Couutry Gentleman. It Is nn Ideal feed to use with corn and Is highly palatable. It need not be fed in large quantities, one part of tankage to ten parts of corn being a very satisfactory ration. Nothing is better than a warm slop for bogs of all ages during the winter months. It is hard to get them to drink all tba water that their systems require during the winter.- and If they are given all the warm slop tbey will drink they will do much better thnn without It Though personally I like to feed tankage in slop better than to feed It dry.'lt may be fed on the ground during the sum mer months In small quantities, with salt and any other condiments, with good results. Th« Profitable Cow. The cow giving the most butter fat leaves the- owner with the most net cash profit without regard to cost of keeping when compared with low pro ducing cows on small keeping cost This phase of dairy econoigips is diffi cult to comprehend by many cow own ers. Experiment time and again, bow ever, has proved the assertion. The large producing cow does not consume feed as compared with the sinnll pro ducing cow In the same proportion that the small producing cow does.— Kansas Farmer. At Farrowing Tims.

In a l(mg gate there r ISi is always a center ' pTiJ ' piece up and down. feJ'w with a diagonal r brace running from boi.TIKB o*Tl the center to tbe front end of the gate. The posts are mortised to let in a two Inch block, and the casting that holds tbe roller la let Into this block and an Iron wash er slipped over tbe bolt so the casting will turn easily.—Farm Press. Excellent Horse Rules. No horse should stand on a cement floor. This is an axiom Insisted on b] all who know much about breed ing. Following' are others, and they are excellent: Every horse should have clean bedding and bis feet picked out and kept clean. There Is no ex cuse for thrush. Have no mangers and feed hay off the ground. Feed grain out of a pall or portable feed box that may be removed when tbe borae has finished. Keep the horse clean and be sure he has feed, light, rest and exer cise. No man has a better right to stand op squarely and look tbe world squarely in the eye than the farmer. Be Is the creator of this nation's wealth. Stand up so the back of your neck will touch your collar.—Kansas Farmer. IT ACTS LIKE MAGIC. Uss of Manurs Spreader Has s Won- derful Effect Upen Fertility. W -1 saw today a man, pitching Intf/a, manure spreader stable manure from a large pile in the flekl where it bad lain until It was partially rotted and where it had been stirred several times with forks. I waa interested, says a writer in Green Fruit Grower, and waited for tbe man to load his wheeled spreader drawn by two horses and saw him pass up and down through the field several times. This manure rfpreading machine Is a modern device. It spreads ths manure more evenly than any man can do the work, no matter how careful or experienced he may be. There wss scarcely an inch of soli on the Held that was not covered with a alight spread of manure, the iPfohinsi covering about eight feet in width each time It crossed the field. But It would seem impossible that such a slight covering of manors should have, as tt does, such marvelous sfTest upon the soli. This fertilizer really acts like magic. It la not alone the fertility which tbe manure con tains which benefits the land. Tbe ma nure helps us to set st work bacteria in the soil, thus in a measure Inoculates the soil with helpful creatures that continue their work. Further than this, tbe manure tends to loosen the soil and to make it, crumble easily under the plow and barrow. The successful fsrmer of the past has made tbe accumulation, protection and application of stable manure a special study. Tbe poor, improvident farmer allows half tbe value of his stable ma ■are to waste by heating or by behig leached by heavy storms, as may be seen by ths colored streams of water running away from bis barnyard. fMyliHi tO YCADS PtPOTATION M M L Grmkam Drag Co. .
