An Old Fallacy Exploded.

Thirty or forty years ago, II was the fash
ion 10 administer powerful purgativcs as
"Spring medicines" Terrific doses of salts
and SIENNA, calomel and jalap, or glauber
salts were given to all the members of q
family, whether sick or well, by way of pre-
pairing them for the warm weather in pros
pect. This pernicious custom is nearly
of private life, incapable alike of forgetting
anything or learning anything, who obsti-
nately cling TO il still. Nothing could be
more pernicious, more utterly unphilosoph-
ical, than such an onslaught on the vigor
and elasticity of the system. In order to
enable the physical structures to resist the
enervating effects Of spring dampS and sum-
mer heats, IL should be toned and reinforced,
not relaxed and weakened. The best med
cine agent for this purpose Is Hostetter's
stomach Bitters. Its effect is TO tone the
stomach and liver, gently relieve the bowels
from distractions, brace the nerves. i'm

the appetite and cheer the spirits. In this
improved condition the organization is
capable of resisting unhealthy influences,
which would PROSTATE an enfeebled system
A vigorous digestion is absolutely essential
to health, and there Is no danger of the
stomach faltering or failing in its import
ant office II this genial vegetable elixir is
taken regularly as a stomachic. None of
the tonic tinctures or extracts will supply
the place of the Bitters, for the simple rea-
son that they operate as astringents only.
In fact, in ordinary practice, five or six pre-
scriptions would be required to produce,
separately, the beneficial results, which
are effected simultaneously, and harmoni-

The Grow.

In recent issue Of the Lcdgrr, Henry
Ward Bcccher speaks Of the crow as
follows:
Aside from this special question of
profit and loss, we have warm side to-
ward the crow, he is so much like one
of ourselves. He is lazy, and that is
human; he is cunning, and that is hui
man. He takes advantage of those
weaker than himself, and that is man
like. Heis sly, and hides forto,morrow
what he can I eat to-day, showing real
human providence He learns tricks
much faster than he does useful things,
showing true boy-nature. He thinks
his own color the best, and loves to hear
his own voice, which are eminent traits
of humanity He will never work
when he can get another 10 work for
nina genuine human trait. He eats
whatever he can lay his claws upon,
and is less mischievous with belly full
than when hungry, and that's like man.
He is at war with all living things cX-
cept his own kind, and with them when
he has nothing else 10 do
No wonder men despise crows. They
are too much like men Take off his
wings, and put him in hreeches, and
crows would make fair average men.
Give men wings, and reduce their
smartness a little, and many of them
would he almost good enough Ia he

1.-THE House We Live In

Space forbidS our speaking of the bones,
muscles, lungs, brain, nerves, skin, etc. But
consider for Il moment that the average
amount o. blood in an adult IS thirty
pounds, or about onc-fifth of the body's
weight. Al each beat Of the heart two and
a-half ounces of blood are thrown out Of IT,;
one hundred and sevcnty-fve ounces per
minute; six hundred and fifty six pounds per
hour: seven and three-fourths tons per day.
All the blood in the body passes through
the heart In three minutes and distributes
the nutritive principle to every texture
and the source of every secretion. Now, If
the blood Is weak and impure, the danger
of mourning disease is imminent. This is
certain to be its condition, more or less. at
this period of the year. And just here we
are admonished of the superior advantages
of MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS for cleans
ing and renovating the blood. This il will
always do, and also prevent any disease
arising from impure blood, because it re-
moves the cause. Begin al once 10 purify
your blood with this great tonic, and thus

THE american Farmer Baltimore
Nd in giving some sensible advice,
appropriate to the season, says:
Take an account of your stock in
trade for..the past year, and ascertain
what it has paid in the way of interest
and for your services. In doing so, give
the farm credit for houserent and fire
wood, fruit, vegetables, meat, and bread,
and whatever elseit has furnished forth
use of the family. Let il have all the
credit it is entitled to, and be sure to
throw in a little for the fresh air and
good water, the health, and quiet, and
peace of country living, before deter
mining that farming does not pay
It's fault of this age that we have
but one method of computing profits.
W hatever does not 60 on to the ledger
Is forgotten. If man dies. after ten
years work in the city has made him a
millionaire, "All right" says the world,
What a large estate he left! IAN
wrong, say we.
If good country air country food
country work will give competence
with health, happiness, and long life
superadded, something should be set
down to the credit of the business that
brings these blessings that money cannot
measure or buy.

Mixed husbandry is needful to realize
the full amount of profit which the
farm, properly managed, will yield.
Every year the price of farm products
varies-some will be high and some
low, and thus the farmer catches good
prices for a part, if not all; whereas, if
he is wholly dependent upon one kind
of crop he may be wholly disappoint-

says:
"The chairman Of the State Central

such sentiments are expressed But it
manifestly is an open and wilful de-
fiance of the fact that more than a ma

the part of the State Central Committee,
is calculated to SOW the seeds of dscOrd

the committee say that they are acting
in harmony with the wishes OF the pco'

The quantity of milk drawn from a
COW depends, more than some imagine,
upon the mixer. The best cow in.the
world may soon be spoiled by careless

ordinary animal may be made to yield q
larger quantity by the right performance

more easy than to find an accomplished
