A CONTRACT SIONE!) TO BRING MURRAY,
THK ENGLISH OIIATOK, HERE.
David Christie M urray, the distinguish
ed English orator and novelist, la booked
lor Newtown on March 2S. He ia every
where accredited with being the most el
oquent speaker on the lecture platform
to-day. The committee in charge of the
Newtown entertainment course have
cored their greatest success of the fea
son in rilling an open date with this tal
ented and charming speaker.
Mr Murray made his tirat appearance
before a United States audience at Bos.
ton and no public speaker has ever elic
Ited more enthusiastic comments from the
Boston press.
The Boston Herald says: "Anything
o spontaneous, so many-sided, so rich In
moods and oratorical powers, has not
been heard in Boston In many years. For
bis running lire of wit, eloquence and
Datho his delighted listeners gave him
back a running ttre of laughter and ap
plause." The Boston Globe says : "He was ro
mantic, eloquent and passionate by
turns. His speech flawed like a stream
and his humor dubbled up spontaneous
ly. He drew forth In rapid succession
wit, humor, tragedy, sarcasm and story,
whl.'h he spread before his audience in
the most tempting style. He moved his
audience to tears and laughter, thrilling
them with his magnetic power."
This Is sure to prove the richest treat
of the season's course, and few would
stay at home on the evening of March 28
If they were fully aware what, a reputa
tion Mr Murray has as an orator, a ra
conteur and an elocutionist.

Of their recent appearance there, say:
"The quartet sang without nccninpanl
ment, explaining to Hev Mr Pierce that
their fathers sang without either piano or
organ, and they preferred to do the same.
They tang the old time negro melodies,
but not the songs that are usually sung
by jubilee companies, and none of the
songs they rendered, while they were
distinctively negro songs, had ever been
heard here before Their singing was
excellent and highly pleaing to the ap
preciative li-teners, rich in melody and
correct in time and harmony, and they
were heartily applauded "

HOW HIS LIFE WAS SAVED. FROM THE

Kennedy's Favorite Remedy as the
savior of his life. Mr Brown's story is
' remarkable.
uFor 8everal year?," said Mr Brown
to a reporter the other day, "I suffered
from inflammation and ulceration ol the
bladder, a most stubborn disease. My
family physician was unable to relieve
me. At the advice ol Iriends I consumed
specialists, and they all failed to do me
any good. All this time I was growing
worse, and at last I was compelled to
take to my bed.
"My mother-in-law had heard ol Dr
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, and she
asked me to give it a trial. I had been
confined to my bed lor five weeks and I
admit that I didn't think there was much
chance ol getting out ol it. Well, I tried
Favorite Remedy. There seemed to be
a change that surprised me. In a week
I was able to get out ol bed and go around
the house, and in a short time I recov
ered completely. To-day I'm as well as
ever and what's better yet I leel that I
am permanently cured. I can work six
teen hours a dav now, and not be broken
up a bit. To Dr Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy is all the credit due."
Favorite Remedy ranks, with the med
ical prolession, as the most perfect of all
blood and nerve medicines. It restores
the liver to a healthy condition, and
cures the worst cases of constipation.
It is a certain cure for all diseases pecu

GIVE THE COWS MORE FOOD.
A man would be considered crazy if
he required power from an engine which
needed 40 pounds of steam to furnish it
and he supplied only enough coal to get
35 pounds pressure on the boiler. He
could use tons and tons ol coal during
the winteV it he shoveled in only enough
to keep the pressure at 35 pounds, and
he would have nothing but ashes and a
worn out boiler to show for his time and
coal. Now substitute the word cows lor
boiler and leed lor coal and see how it
reads, it would be something like this:
A man has a cow which needs . fifteen
pounds ol lood per day to keep her alive,
and lor every pound above that she
would give three pounds ol milk. If he
gives her only 15 pounds a day he could
keep her all winter and in the spring a
heap ol manure is all there is lor bis leed
and work, while il' he should leed her
20 pounds or more a day be would get
enousrh milk to Dav lor the feed ard a
profit besides. There are thousands and
thousands of dairymen who are working
upon the plan ol the man with the engine.
They give their cows only enough leed
to keep them alive, or if they do give
them any more it is not enough to get
the most out ol them. Not more than
one-tenth ol the cows in this country
produce as much as tbey are capable of
doing or give as much profit as they
might,- and it is only because of the lack
ol a little more feed. Four cows will eat
what five ordinarily get and give as
much or more milk than the five did for
this fourth extra of leed. Here Is a sav
ing ol one cow and the work necessary
to care lor her. As a rule dairymen
would find it more profitable to leed
their cows 25 per cent, more or to de
crease the size ol their herd 20 per cent
and feed the same amount of lood to the
balance. Practical Dairyman.

the animal heat. Now the first use that
is made of the food eaten is to maintain
the animal heat and to sustain and re-1
place the wastes of the system ; the sur
plus oyer and above this is used for the
production of milk, the growth of bone
aod muscle, the laying on of fat or the
production of wool as the case may be
with our different animals. If an ani
mal's function is to give milk she cannot
give an abundant supply unless she has
a good surplus of food over that needed
to sustain ber body, and the more food
you give her up to her capacity to digest
and assimilate, the more milk she will
give. It is much cheaper to make the

CERES0TA !
As the days and the weeks and the
years go by CEKESOTA FLOUR
becomes more strongly and more fav
orably established in the homes of the
people of our town.
Knowing the remarkably high
grade of this flour when we introduced
it on th market; knowing its perfect
ly uniform qnality, its undoubted
strength, its "holding out" capacity
Knowing all these things we dia not
anticipate the popularity and splendid
sale that it commands io day- a sale
that has comparatively out sold all
other brands.
Will you try CEKESOTA next
