The Grace of God
and Chrystal Tonic
Have Made Rev. Alexander McKenzie
Strong and Vigorous at 88
Years.
Chrystal Tonic Is a Predigested Liquid Food that
Rebuilds and Renews the Tissues of the
Body and Thus Arrests and Prevents the
Process of Natural Decay Incident
to Old AgeBy Means of Its
Wonderful Properties, Life
Is Prolonged Indefi-
nitely.
Rev. Alexander McKenzie of Tyrone,
says: "For more than half a century
I have labored in the Lord's vineyard
incessantly. I am an old man now and
ready to*go to my reward when the
Master shall call, but even now (in my
88th year) I feel that I have strength
for many years to come, whereas a year
ago I was firmly persuaded that my call
was very near, as sight and hearing
were rapidly failing. My mind was far
from clear, and I was so weak I could
scarcely stand.
Rev. Alexander McKenzie.
"My daughter persuaded me to try
Chrystal Tonic and it has accomplished
a miracle. I can see and hear as well
as ever in my life. I eat and sleep well
and feel not a day over fifty years old.
In fact, were it not for the opposition
of my beloved children I should surely
take a pulpit again. Chrystal Tonic is
certainly a wonderful discovery.''
One single dose of Chrystal Tonic will
make you feel better. Within fifteen
minutes after you have taken it you
will feel new fire in your blood, the
nerves will tingle with new, rich life
and all feeling of melancholy and de
pression will pass away.
Continuing to use it, your digestion
will improve, you will be able to sleep
the sound, dreamless sleep that rests
and refreshes every atom of your being.
Work that has been impossible will
be easily within your reach, brain and
body will co-operate naturally to pro
duce the best.
Chrystal Tonic cures rheumatism,
constipation, consumption, torpid liver,
kidney trouble, Bright's disease, heart
disease, neuralgia, nervous exhaustion,
male and female weakness, bad blood,
headache, backache, dizziness, sleepless
ness, dyspepsia, general debility, tired
brain and any run-down condition of the
system.
Chrystal tonic is not a combination
of dangerous drugs. It is a predigested
liquid food that rebuilds and renews
the tissues of the body and thus arrests
and prevents the process of natural de
cay incident to old age. By means of
its wonderful properties life is pro
longed indefinitely.
It gives sound, refreshing sleep, aids
digestion, cures constipation and bilious
ness and drives impurities from the
blood.
It ought to be in every family all the
timeas good for young as old because
it prevents and cures disease.
Don't take our word for what Chrys
tal Tonic will do for you, try a bottle
today. If, after using it, you are not
delighted with the result, write the
company at Marshall and they will re

road, and we had to discard the roll
ing stock and make use of the horses
of the apostles for ourselves, while
provisions had to be loaded onto a
"klovhest" (pack horse). After 5%
hours' journey in this ancient fashion
we had covered the twenty kilometres
of bridle path and arrived at our des
tination. Our hut, or cottage rather,
is located near the small lake of Sy
nesfiord. Our neighbors are few and
far between. We are 'way above the
regular farming land, and here is
nothing but saeterbeiter (mountain

(saeterjenter) who take care of the
animals and make butter and cheese.
It is certainly a queer sensation to
wake up in the morning in such sur
roundings, everything is so wonderfully
quiet, clean and fresh. The only noise
is from the small brooks which look
like silver bands and which babble
down the hillside into the lake below.
For the man whose ears are assailed
every morning with the everlasting
noises of our modern cities, here is an
ideal spot to get a few days' genuine
rest. But my comrade is a professional
sport, and even before he gray mist
of dawn he disturbs my peaceful slum
ber and tells me it is time

decide to try the sport, and after hav

way, seems to be to consume the

my own disposition, as he goes a7

about 6 o'clodk while on the hunt we
passed a saeter hut. The ground was
frozen and ^the air was rather chilly,
but a woman of about 40, with only a
light calico wrapper on and with bare
feet was 'nevertheless walking about
the fields* quite as comfortable as we
who were dressed in warm underwear
and hunting suits.
There is quite an exchange system
among the farmers of these mountain
pasturages. A farmer on Ringerike
may rent out his to a man there, while
he secures ^pasture for his own herd in
Nordre Land, even if it takes him two
days' travel to get there. A profit,
ever so small, will make him take such
a step. The rent paid for a saeter is
about 44 kroner in cash and a barrel
of rye and one of peas for a season.
If a man wants to have his herd
placed on another man's saeter for the
Bummer he pys for a cow 4 kroner, for
a goat 1.25 and for a sheep 70 to 80
oere. Thus ammals belonging to differ
ent farmers may be together on the
same saeter. The owner provides help
to take care of the whole-bunch and
the same persons also make the butter
and cheese. The milk from the several
flocks is weighed two or three times in
the season, and on these tests is based
the share that each man receives of
the products at the final settlement.
Naturally, lively young girls do not
like to spend the finest part of the year
in such lonely places, where they have
no other companions than the dumb
beasts. The distance to their homes
is so long that some of them receive
but two or three calls from the folks
at home in the whole three months'
stay.
Their -quarters are also very primi
tive. One room serves as bedroom, kitch
en, parlor and -cheese and butter fac
tory. Another is assigned for storage
of milk, cheese and butter. A couple
of books, generally of a religious char
acter, and a few copies of illustrated
papers furnish entertainment.

A Brief Hunting Season.
The 'hunting season for big game,
such as elk and deer, lasts only a couple
of weeks, and the game is getting more
scarce every year. The great supply of
reindeer meat, which' we have in this
country thruout the winter, is all from
the tamed animals. Of bear and wolf
only a few are killed every year, altho
there is a premium of 25 kroner for
the destruction of each animal.
At about 8 o'clock we have break

fishing. Later in the day we either go

tackle mountain climbing, both inter
esting pastimes.
The small farms in the mountainous
tracts of Norway have not near enough
home pastures for the livestock, while
the wide stretches of fine grazing land
on the high mountain slopes have plenty
of forage for large herds. Thus it has
for generations been the custom of the
farmers in such districts to send their
cattle, sheep and goats to the mcfa
tain pastures for about three months
every summer. The snow does not dis
appear in these lofty regions before
the middle of June, and then the flocks
are sent to their summer pastures, as
the grass grows well under the snow,
and is suitable as soon as the snow is
gone.
One girl is considered capable of tak
ing care of fifteen or twenty cows. The
sheep are looked after by the shep
herd, and so are the goats. Some of
the goats, however, have to be milked
and they are either specially watched or
kept in all the time.
To illustrate the difference between
the first and the last cost of goat
cheese, I will state that up here we
can buv the article at kr. 1.10 a kilo,
while down at Christiania our grocer
asks kr. 1.60. Milk here costs 10 ore
a litre, in Christiania 20.
Not All Bucolic Beauties/
While it is generally imagined that
all "saeterienter" are young and gay
girls, as pictured by Ibsen in his Peer
Gynt," this is not so. The most of them
long ago saw their thirtieth birthday,
and many are married women, haying
one or two children along. It is a
hardy race, however. One morning
Cleanliness Is Remarkable.
A log fire is kept going almost con
tinually during the day on the open
stone hearth. One thing that strikes the
visitor as soon as he enters such a
saeterhut is how scrupulously clean ev
erything is kept. The floors always
look as if an expert scrubwoman had
"just put on a polish, and so it is with
everything else. Perhaps this is due
to the fact that their household effects
are so feW^a'nd simple, and they there
fore always want them to look their
best. Moreover, I cannot see how one
could tolerate anything not perfectly
clean when one lives in an atmosphere
so pure as here. It simply makes you
feel twice as strong, makes you eat
double rations, and you sleep like a log.
Our exceptionally fine weather this
season holds good here. Sunshine and
balmy air every day, so warm that we
take our afternoon nap on the open
veranda, while the sunbeams are turn
ing our faces to an Indian hue. Still
the nights are cold, down below the
freezing point.
lorests of fir, pine and some birch
grow quite high up on the mountain
sides, while the heather and reindeer
moss go clear up to the summit of the
ridges. While none of these latter can
be termed high mountains, according to
the Noiwegian idea, a trip up to the
top is well worth the while, and I never
regretted the hour and a half it took
to climb up to Spaatinden. The view
was grand, especially when looking
northward, where the ever-snowdecked
ptaks of Jotunheimen, some of which
reach more than eight thousand feet
above the sea, glitter blue-white in the
sunshine.
Looking at the vast tracts of fine
grnzing land for miles in every direc
tion,'it is hard to understand why Nor
way annually should have to import
meat to an extent of ten to fifteen mil
lion kroners' worth.
Why Not Raise Meat?
The farms are small in this section,
seven to ten cows being the average,
and when the uncertainty of the crop is
considered, it seems queer that they do
not go into stockraising. By fencing in
part of the mountain tracts plenty of
hay could be had for winter forage. The
idea has been strongly advocated by
prominent men, but the farmers are
conservative and would rather remain

poor than do anything more than their
fathers have done before them. Con
sidering the number of persons who live
from the products of such a small farm,
it is certainly not easy for a Minnesota
framer to understand how they do it.
But then, as our body servant put it:
They live off the pi udute v the farm,
of course, and the longer they stay on
the farm the more they get into debt.
The much-talked-of American inva
sion of Europe is certainly far-reach
ing, and even the conservative farmers
up here cannot resist it. Thus I saw
a modern American mower in operation
on*one farm. Not that American farm
machinery is an unusual sight in Nor
way, but I did not expect to see it at
such an altitude.
A man in Christiania has recently
opened a shoe store, where he sells
nothing but American-made shoes, and
only at two prices, $5 for men's and $4
for ladies', and still he expects to make
a living out of his business at least he
demonstrates that he has an unlimited
faith in the American-made article.

Light is the most perfect incandescent light ever invented, pro-

the flow of gas. Then there is an air chamber of accur-

course. There was a warm discussion

argument advanced was that the American na^T*^
tion, "notoriously the most impolite in the
world," has managed to forge to the front ia
business and statesmanship and has thereby dem
onstrated that politeness does not pay. while
Spain, with its courteous grandness, and Francp,
famous for politeness, are not such noticeable-
examples of success among the nations. Jj5
Apart from the discussion of the question,
which hardly deserves to be taken seiiously. the
pungent criticism of the American nation fur
nishes food for reflection. Are we less polite
than our neighbors? asks Robert Webster Jones
in the October Housekeeper. Outwardly, yes.
It must be admitted that most of as have been
too busy settling a new country and striving
for bare existence to put the utmost degree ^of
polish of which they are capable upon our ban
ners. In England the conductor of the omnibus
says "Thank you" as he receives the fare. In

sometimes afford room for criticism.
But we are learning fast and really "moat

strongly. Granting that we are already first Jt
