The Time for Renewal.

All nature isrenewed in thesprin agtime e.The sky takeson a freshercolor, the treesdon their Eas-ter garments,everythingseems glad andhapp y. It

seems a pity that at such a beau-tiful season so disagreeable a mala-dy as the so-called "spring fever"should unfit a grgat many peopleto enjoy the unaccostomed sunshineand freshness that prevails. Whatis spring fever? It is that slug-gishness and irritability whichevery one takes a spring tonic for,"Bad blood" some people calf it.A ptreat deal of "blood medicine"is sold in the spring of the year.The blood, the vigor the healthmust be renewed, with the treesand flowers and grass. The prin-cipal difficulty is, which of thenumerous apring tonics is the bestWhich will cure permanently andremove quickly all the disagreea-ble symptomsl Bead what Mrs.Adlin Adams, Crafton, Ky., saysof Pe-ru-na; "I was about to giveup all hopes when 1 concluded totake Pe-ru-na. I believe it is thebest medicine in the world. Ican't speak too highly of it."

New Air Churn!Revolution in the Art of Churning.

I -

1ST. It makes butter in from two to three minutes,seldom over two.

2ND. It makes hard, firm, yellow, granulated butter,therefore bringing the highest market price.

3RD. It is self-tempering and regulates the tempera-ture of cream to the butter-mnaking point.4TH. The current of air circulated through the cream

forces out all impurities from butter and buttermilk.5TH. It gathers butter perfectly.6TH. It makes the finest buttermilk, as you never

have to put water into the cream.7TH. This new principle enables you to churn any

grade of milk that has butter, either sweet or sour.8TH. It is easy to clean, as all parts are detachable.;9TH. It will last a lifetime, as it is durable and com-

pact.10TH. We can duplicate all of its parts, as it is made

by machinery.11TH. A few turns of the crank drives all animal

heat out of frdh milk for immediate use, and renders itsafe to keep longer.

12TH. This Churn eradicates all taste and smell of on-ions, and takes the bitter taste from milk. It has been 'tested often with the same satisfactory result. The in-credulous are invited to make a test.

Sample can be seen at this office.
