King Hscar of .Sweden has not only two crowns, but, although Sweden ind Norway arc now one kingdom, \he Swedish King receives two cor- o/iatlons. Tho crown ha.s no part in the in- MiK»i'al ceremony of the King of the Belgians, who merely swears to pre- serve the Constitution and to ob- serve the laws. While some monarchs have no crowns. others have several. The Czar of Hussia has a large assort- ment. Among the headpieces of the Czi\r are the crowns of Kiev. Ka.siin. Siberia. Astrachan, I'oland, Kin.'and, and the Crimea. Spain originally Y^a.A no crown, and there is no actual coronation now, the monarch only taking an oath similar to that of the King of the Belgians. I5ut though not actually invested with the round and top <if royalty, a Spanish King has a crown of a very costly and elabor- ate design, though it originally was only a plain band of gold. The Sultan of Turkey has no crown, and nothing of the kind is employed in his investiture with des- potic power. His authority is frank- ly the power of the sword. Instead of coronation, the Sultan is girt with the sw^ord of Dthman. '"Take {t wilh faith," is the injunction, "for vou receive it ironi God." Every Wq, rofnan Know. Should RAILfAT UN.

Tortured by all Kinds of Pains and Aches he Tries Everything, but Fails to Find ReUef Till a Friend Advises Him to Use Dodd's Kidney Pills.â€" They Have Made a Well Man of Him and Ha Is Grateful. Ottawa. Ont., June 30.â€" (Special) â€"Frank Chartrand, a railway man, whose home is 130 l^ittle Chaudiere street, has acknowledged that Podd'a Kidnc.v IPills have done more for him than anything else in tlie world haji ever done. He says : "I sulVered with backache and was always drowsy and had a very heavy feeling in my limbs. "1 had frequent severe headaches and more times very sharp pains in tho top of my head, which gave me much annoyance in my work. - "My lingers would cramp and 1 would have an uneasiness, in my legs and occasional pains in the loins. "I Was dizay in spells and short of bicath. If 1 ale a hearty meal 1 would have a puin in my left side. My appetite would 9t>u'.etimes be very good and sometimes 1 couldn't eat anything. "l had a constant soreness and tenderness over the spine and tired reeling in the region of my kidneys. "1 suffered quite a little with a dragginjj heavy feeling across the ' loins. "Dodd's Kidney Tills were recom- mended to me by a fi-iend who had been cured, and I began to use them. "Almost from the start 1 began to feci tho wonderful improvement, which continued as the treatment prococded. till the unpleasant symp- toms had one by one entirely disai>- poared. "D(nld's Kidney Pills have worked a wonderful cure in my case and 1 cannot speak too highly of this great and good reu:edy."

The cvuicnce on which this theory is based is that scarlet fever spread under strict ciuarantinc from a house on th^ roof of which there Wrts a largo t b;ejjn cote.

Early Winter or Fall Calf the Best. â€" How the Animal i Should Be Fed. i "For a number of years I have had i most of >^y cows drop their calves in the late fall or early winter," \ ! says Punco.ti C Anderson, of Kugby, ' jOnt., "aiul I have come to the con-! elusion that there is a decided gain ' j in so doing. Thp milking season is j lengthened ; cows coming in fresh , [.before Christmas, by liberal feeding I I in winter, milk nearl* as well in the • ; early summer when the pastures are j i at their best, as cows tliat come in j fre.'^h in March. We milk ten months, giving the cows tw« months rest. They arc rested in the early fall,- I when the pastures are at their poor- i est. At that time the Rrass is gen- I erally dry parched and burned up. ' .4s we raise on the skim milk one I calf to each cow, it is very im- I portant that the cows should have i two months rest out of the twelve. i When the cows are milked to within i a couple of weeks of calving they get I no chance to recuperate. The calf \ generally comes with a weakened j vitality, and does not make as rapid or satisfactory a growth in the lirst 1 si.\ months. as when the cow has I had a fair period for rest and re- [ cuperation. After a long term of ! experience I have come to the con- I elusion, considering the increased I price of winter butter, the long j milking season, resting when the ! grass is poor, that in winter dairy- ; ing, cows g-ive at least 25 per cent : more milk in the season than if they \ came in fresh in the spring months. ; Agaizi an early winter or fall calf I is quite as heavy at two and one- j half years as a spring calf is at ! three years old. There is a gain of ] six moiitho in the age of the calf. : the reason for this being that it is ; weaned off the milk in .June, goes on I to grass, is fed a little gjain or meal j all sunmier, and in the fall it is a j good strong lusty yearling, and win- I ters much better than a spring caU, which is just weaned in the fall and } goes into winter. i WHEN A CALF IS DROPPED I it is not good practice to allow the 1 cow to fondle and lick her offspring. I When the separation does take place I there is always a disturbance in the ; cow stable ; tile mother gets e-\cited. i and some nervous cows remain so ' for tiie best part of a week. Hetler i results are obtained by removing the i new born Ciilf without allowing the j mother to lick it. Kub it dry with a wisp of straw, put it into a roomy, : di-y, warm pen, free from frosts and drafts, and give it no milk for the lirst twelve hours. When a calf is hungry it is not nearly so much trouble to tcacli it to drink. Tho lirst two weeks it should have a quart of whole milk three limes a i day, care lacing taken that tho i.oon I milk is vvarnieil to new milk beat. For the next three weeks half a I quart of skim milk should be added to the whole udlk at each meal. When the calf gets to be live weeks old, discontinue the noon milk, also the whole milk, giving about three i quarts of skim milk tvvict- a day. I!y I this time tlie stonuuh will be stronjj j enough to assimilate and digest i other food. The noon meal should \ then he pulped roots, chopped o*t3, ( and well saved clover hay. If a se- I parator is not used ai»il the luilk I3 ! set in shallow pans or deep setting j cans, it should always be vvariiied up I to new milk heat before being fed. ! If i'„ is fed cold or too hot it is apt . to produce bloating and scours. iWhcn through cajeless feeding, scour- ing is allowed to become chronic I there is no lonicdy. When a calf is ! not doing well broak an egg into its I nulk : this acts as a tonic and adds i strength to its ration. ; To supplement the loss of butter I fat in milk, take for 1:2 calves over 'two months old.' four cups of llax jsiod, put it intti a common stove pot and lill up with water. l>o this after dinner and allow it to sinuier all afternoon aiul evening, fvext morning boil smartly for about one half hour, stir in .â- -omo wheat liour, until the mixture is about the con- sistency of lliiu porridge. A CALF THKKK MDNTH.S tH.li will take a cup full of this llax seed tea porridge in its skun milk. I'he Hour is used to counteract tiie loos- ; ! ening cTcets of the llnx seed. Care must be u.svd at lirst not to ovei-- \ feed but to work up gradually to ; what I have mentioned, with skim ; milk, llax seed tea, roots, chopped i oats and clover hay, and with com- j fortable warm pens kept clean and | well bedded. Calves can in this way be raised much more profitably In wiiuer than in suniEier. When a se- parator is used it is best to i^im the froth olf the skimmed milk and not feed it to the young calves, es- pecially those under three months. It has a tendency to disturb the nor- mal action of the stomach, and set up scours. Whenever a calf Is scour- ing reduce the quantity of skim milk. Be careful to have the pail from which the calves are fed as clean as possible. With skim milk at the right temperature fed out of pails as clean as your milking pails, in not too large quantities, and fed regular- ly, there will be but little trouble from calves scouring. In warm weather calves should be kept in during the day time, and turned out in the evening. Thus they will avoid the hot sun and the flies. Whole or chopped oats should be fed. A mixture ot whole and chopped oats, about a cupful twice a day for an ordinary sized calf on good pasture, will be suflicient. For fall feeding until the roots are har- vested, there is nothing equal to green corn run through the cutter box and mixed with some chopped oats. The main point in calf feeding is to never allow them to stop growing and in the case of beef animals keep them in good flesh. In feeding calves as in every system of feeding the ex- tremes of over and under feeding are to be avoided. Continuous, regular, liberal feeding always brings the most prolit, and the best practical results." V. W. HODSON. Live Stock Commissioner.

Some years ago a traveller in ji certain populous country dis- trict stopped to converse with a farmer who had a considerable num- ber of men at work in his hay fields. â- Most of these men are old sol- diers," .'iaid the farmer. "Indeed ! Are any of them offi- cers '?" "Two of 'em. One of 'em there was a private, and that fellow be- yond wras a corporal, but the man beyond him was a major, and that man away over in the corner was a colonel !" "Indeed ! And are they all good men ?" "Well." said the farmer, "the pri- vate is a lirst-elass man in every way. and the corporal's pretty good, too." "But what about the major and the colonel ?" "The major's oiJy so-so," replied the farmer, with some hesitation. "But the colonel ?" "Well, sir â€" well. I ain't a-goin' to say a word against no man who has been a colonel fn the American army, but I've made up my mind to one thingâ€" I ain't a-goin' to hire any brigadier-generals. ' ' I Be Quick!
