Asthma, Pain in the Side and Breast, Splitting of Blood, Whooping Cough, and all Lung Complaints which, if neglected, usually terminate in ConSump- ton and the certificates attached to the advertisements would seem fully to justify this statement.

The Foolish Quarrel. "Hush, Juana; 'tis quite certain That the coffee was not strong; Own your error---I'll forgive you Why so stubborn in the wrong?" "You'll forgive mel Sir, l hate you! You have used me like churl; Have my senses ceased to guide me! Do you think am girl!' "Oh, no, you're girl no longer, But a woman, formed to please; And its time you should abandon Childish follies such as these "Oh, hate you! But why vex me? If 1 am old, you're older still; I'll no longer be your victim,
 And the creature of your will" But, Juana, why this bother!
 It might happen 1 was wrong; But, If common sense inspire me, Still that coffee was not strong. "Common sense! You never had it! Oh, that ever 1 was born To be welded to a monster,
 Who repays my love with scorn." "Well, Juana, we'll not quarrel Whats the use of bitter strife? But Pm sorry am married;
 l was mad to take wife" "Mad, indeed! I'm glad you know it; But if there be law in Spain, I'll be tied to you no longer
 l am weary of the chain" "Hush, Juana! Shall the servants Hear you argue, ever wrong! Can you not have done with folly?
 Own the coffee was not strong.'' "Oh, you goad me past endurance, Trlfing with my woman's heart; But loathe you, and detest you Villain! Monster! Let us partn' Long this foolish quarrel lasted,
 Till Juana, half afraid That here empire was in peril,
 Summon'd neyer-failing aid: Summon'd tears in copious torrents, Tears, and sobs, and piteous sighs; We'll she knew the potent practice, The artillery of the eyes. And it chanced as she imagined Beautiful in grief was she Beautiful, to best advantage;
 And tender heart had he. Knelling at her side he sooth'd her, "Dear Juana, l was wrong; Never more I'll contradict you- But, oh, nake nay co6ee strOngr"

To Promote the Health Of Stock.


 Mix, occasionally, one part of salt witt four, five, or six parts of wood ashes, anC give the mixture to different kinds of stock summer and winter. It tpromotes their ap- petite, and tends to keep them in healthy condition. It is said to be good against bots in horses, murrain in cattle, and TO, in sheep.
 Horseradsh root is valuable for cattle. ltcreates an appetite, and is good for various diseases. Some give it to any animal that IS unwell. ltis good for oxen troubled with the heat. If animals will not eat it volun- tarily, cut it up and mix it with potatoes or meal.
 Feed all animals regularly. They not only look for their food at the usual time, but the stomach indicates the want at the stated period. Therefore feed morning, noon, and evening, as near the same time as possible. Guard against the wide and injurious extremes of satiating with excess and starving with want. Food should be of suitable quality, and proportioned to the growth and fattening of animals, to their production in young and milk, and to their labor or exercise. Animals that labor need far more food, and that which is more nutritious, than those that are idle.
 Guard all descriptions of stock against cold and exposure, especially against cold storms of rain, sleet, or damp snow, and against lying out on the cold ground in cold nights, in the spring and fall
 Ina dry time, see that animals have a good supply of pure water. When the fountains are low, they drink the trainings ot fountains, streams, and passages of water which are unwholesome.
 If barns and stables are very tight and warm, ventilate in mild weather, even in winter.-American Veteriaarian.
