How to Give Children an Appetite.

GIVE children an abundance of out door
exercise, fun and frolic; make them reg
ular in their habits, and feed them only
upon plain, nourishing food, and they will
seldom, if ever, complain of lack of ap-
petite. But keep them overtasked In
school, confined closely to the house the
rest of the time, frowning every attempt at
play; feed them upon rich or high season.
ed food, candies, nuts, etc, allow them to
eat between meals, and in the evening, and
you need not expect them to have good
appetites. On the contrary, you may expect
they will be pale, weak and sickly.
Don't cram them with food when they
don't want or have no appetite for it-such
course is slow murder. If they have nc
appetites, encourage, and if need be com
mand them to take exercise in the opeI
ali. Don't allow them to study too much
and especially keep them from reading the
exciting light literature which so mucl
abounds in our bookstores and circulating
libraries. In addition to securing exercisl
for the children as above, change thei
diet somewhat; especially when they hav,
been eating fine flour, change to coarse o
Graham flour.

made up wholly or in part, at least, by ex-
ira feed from drilled corn or second crop
grass from the moving field.
Cows, to yield the best returns, should
always have ready access to a plenty of
good water. This lis almost Indispensable,
tor it is impossible to make good butter
without good supply of pure water.
Those having pastures where the water
fails in dry time have probably observed
how rapidly their cows shrink in their
milk when water is scarce and the animals
do not get their usual supply. When we
consider that about eighty-seven parts of the
constituents of milk are water, COW that
gives large quantity of milk would re-
quire a good supply to keep up uniform
flow of milk. 1t would be far better to
induce them to take all the water they
will, than to have them put upon short al
lowance. Tfa.iuducing cows to drink large
quantities of water will increase the flow
of milk is certain; but to what extent the
quantity of milk may be increased with.
cut detriment to the quality, by inducing
the animal to take an abundant supply OF
liquid, 1 am not prepared to say. But ]
am satisfied that milk of good quality may
be increased by this method.

Special Farming.

MANY of the complaints made that farm
ing does not pay are founded on the fact
that some particular crop has been raised
to the exclusion of others, and failure
has resulted disastrously. In mixed farm
ing this can not occur. A successful farmer
will tell you the secret of his success. He
has always something to sell. In the
winter time, he has grain of all sorts, wool
and mutton; in the spring, he has some
fat cattle or fresh cow; some fat calves
during summer, and at any time, if one
should want horse, he will have one to
spare, having always a colt to put in its
p ace. Thus money is all the time dropping
Into mis- purse, and though the items may
be small, the aggregate is considerable
while he has abundance for his domestic
supply without having to purchase. Con.
trsst this with the hop raiser, the cotton
grower, the fruit culturist, and all other;
who limit themselves to special product
They may handle more money in year
but how little of it sticks to their fingers
They handle it but as trustees for others
and sometimes failure will prevent then
handling sufficient for their pressing
needs.-Hedrh and Home.

Died Suddenly OF Heart Disease,

How common is the announcement. Thou
sands are suddenly swept into eternity BY this
fatal malady. This disease generally has its
origin in impure blood, filed with irritating,
poisonous materials, which, circulating
through the heart, irritate its delicate tissues.
Though the irritation may at first be only
slight, producing little palpitation or irreg-
ular fiction, yet by and by the disease becomes
firmly seated, and Inflammation, or hyper
trophy, or thickening of the lining men,
brane, or of the valves, is produced. How
wise to give early attention to case of this
kind. Unnatural throbbing or pain in the re-
gion of the heart should admonish one that
all is not right, and if you would preserve it
from further disease, you must help it to beat
rightly by the use of such a remedy as shall
remove the cause of the trouble. Use DR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery before the
disease has become too seated, and 1t will, by
its great blood-purifying and wonderful regu
la.ing properties, effect perfect cure. 1t con
tains medicinal properties which act specif
| cally upon the tissues of the heart, bringing
about healthy action. Sold by all first-clas
druggists. 5S1

Blanching Celery.

THE last of August is the time to begin
earthing up celery that will be wanted for
use in October or November. The crop
designed for winter use need not be earth
ed up until later in the season, for if
blanched too early it will be neither as
good nor keep as well as that which i
blanched in cool weather. In earthing up
some care is required to keep the soil on
the outside of the head, and to do this the
operator should clasp the leaves and stems
in one hand, holding them together, while
with the other the earth should be drawn
around the plant and pressed firmly against
it. A very little soil Will suffice for this
purpose, and more can be added if requir-
ed, when both hands are free to use the
hoe or spade. If the plants are not grow
ing as vigorously as required, then give
them a liberal supply of liquid manure q
few days before the first earthing up. Oh
course the liquid should not be thick and
rank, for this would cause rust; but let il
be strong, and then dilute with considera
BILE water, so that the earth about the
| plants may be well soaked, and not merely
sprinkled. Celery intended for late croI
should be frequently hoed during this anC
next month and if the weather is dry
water freely, adding some kind of stimu
lating manure, if necessary.-RurdL Neu

Selecting Seed.

ALL the Improvements in seed have been
the result of selection. The best seed
selected for use has yielded an improved
product, and the process again and again
repeated has finally resulted in secur-
ing the plant, root, or grain desired.
Corn has been much improved by course
of selection, but farmers who have most
at stake in this matter are too careless to
carry out experiments to final result.
Now, if a seed could be secured that
would produce with certainty two ears of
corn to each stalk, our corn crop would
be vastly increased, and it is pretty GER
tain that if for succession of years nc
corn were planted but that which pro.
duced two ears to the stalk, the popularity
would become fixed, and a corn having
this as Distinguishing characteristic
would become an established variety
What we need is that farmers should be
careful to select their seed ears while the
corn is standing, that they may be SURE
that the ears selected are perfect in shapt
and filling out, early in ripening, and grow
double. An improvement of ten per cent
only in the corn crop from judiciou'
selection Of seed, would add a value o
fifty millions of dollars to the agriculture
income of the country, and this is nc
mean item.-Hearh and Home.

Medical Mistakes.

It took the faculty about a thousand years to
discover that the best way to diseases not
to render the patient too weak to contend with 1t.
Within the last twenty years, however, the whole
system of medical practice has been changed for
the better. In diseases or complaints caused by
excessive heat for instance, the doctors longer
recommend the reduction of the invild's strength
by prostrating medicines. The vast success which
has attended the use Of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters as a remedy for debility, has given even the
most prejudiced members of the ola school an In
sight into the only true and rational theory Of
cure. Cantharides calomel, and overpowerine
doses of opium, are now among the obsolete nos
trume Of another age. The lancet, once as much
the legitimate weapon of the physician as the
sword is Of the soldier il seldom drawn from III
case. The principle of life is no longer drained
from the veins by the quart, and water-gruel fcl
the strengthless invilid has ceased to be oonsid
cred an appropriate diet. Vigor Is the motto o.
the rational members of the profession, and the!
unde stand, at last, the value of aserling vegeta
BILE tonic. So, also. with the people at large
and without consulting medical me1 at all, the,
have adopted the bitters rs household remedy
thereby economising both cash and health.
Note the fact that Hostetter's Stomach Bitter
Is sold in bottles only, never bulk, and that tn
abortions springing up in various parts of tn
country, and sometimes offered as substitutes 70
the great national specific, are all utterly worth
less.

OLD PREJUDICEs ARE DYING OUT. New
facts are killing them. The idea that invalids
weakened by disease can be relieved by pros
trating them with destructive drugs, is no
longer entertained except by monomaniacs.
Ever since the introduction of DR.. WALKERS
VINEGAR BITTERs, it has been obvious that
their regulating and invigorating properties
are all-sufficient tor the cure of chronic indi-
gestion, rheumatism, constipation, diarrhea,
nervous affections and malarious fevers, and
they are now the standard remedy for these
complaints in every section of the Union.

The Humbug of Early Rising.

ALL this talk about early rising is moon
shine. The habit of turning out of bed in
the middle of the night suits some people |;
let them enjoy it. But it is folly to lay
down general rule upon the subject.
Some men are fit for nothing all day after
they have risen early in the morning.
Their energies are deadened, their imagi-
nations are heavy, their spirits are de-
pressed. 1t is said you can work so well
in the morning. Some people can, but
others can work best at night; others,
again, in the afternoon. Long trial and
experiment form the only conclusive tests
upon these points. As for getting up
early because Prof. Cannon has written
letters to the papers proving the necessity
OF 1t, let no one be goose enough to do 1t.
We all know the model man, aged eighty
II invariably rise at B; l work three
hours, take light breakfast-namely, a
cracker and a pinch of salt-work five
hours more; never smoke, never drink
anything but barley-water, eat no dinner,
and go TO bed at in the evening" If
anybody finds that donkeyfied sort of life
suit him, by all means let him continue it.
But few people would care to live to
eighty on those terms. If a man cannot
get all withered and crumpled up on easier
conditions than those, it is almost as well
that he should depart before he is nuis-
ance to himself and bore to everybody
else. School boys, and young people
generally, ought 10 get up early, for it is
found that nine-tenths of them can stand
it; and it does them good. But let no one
torture himself with the thought that he
could have been twice as good man as he
is if he had risen every morning at day
light. The habit would kill hGlf of US in
five years.-INeto York Times

Mr.. Delano concluded with an appeal
to Republicans to relax no effort to secure
the completion of the noble work under
taken by the Republican party, and to pre-
vent the government from falling upon the
reckless and extravagant control of Tam
many politicians. He said:
"All important considerations gather
together and demand that you neither
sleep upon guard nor surrender to the foe.
You will realize this, and continue active
and vigilant. Advance your picket de-
fenses close upon the enemy, and invade
his lines whenever strength or strategy
shall wa rant success. So you shall con.
quer again, and hold for yourselves the
country and the public trust which treason
and rebellion cast upon you. You can
then look proudly back to what your valor
has accomplished, and lock forward, with
hope, to the progress of civilization, the
happiness of future posterity, and the
present glory of the nation"

not long survive such mismanagement.
OUR PUBLIC DEBT.
Passing next to the consideration of the
public debt, he said
Hitherto it has been the policy of the
Republican party to reduce the public
debt as rapidly as the prosperity of the
people and the financial interests of the
country would permit. I believe this to
be wise policy, and hope to see it contin.
ued. General Grant has wrought to this
end steadily and persistently, with results
already shown. It ought to be added that
the annual saving of interest on the debt
reduced and paid is $12,000,000. This re-
duction has not been made by the aid OF
additional taxes, but under large repeal
of taxes. If the fidelity, integrity, and
economy of the Administ ration enable
Congress to make still further reduction
in the rate of taxation, and exempt a still
larger list of objects, it ought to be done-i
it can be done without impairing the public
credit at home and abroad, and without
embarrassing the regular and necessary
operations of the government. I know
there are some good Republicans who have
serious doubts as to the policy of reducing
the debt 80 rapidly during the presen
generation. I have shown that the reduc
ton already made was from money saved
by the economy and vigilance of tht
present Administration. Thus far no ont
certainly ought to object, nor to its con
tinuance on such terms but if we stop re
ducing the debt because we say the mex
generation will be SO much more able t.
pay it, and, therefore, leave it to them, tina
generation will, in all probability, b
quite as willing to adopt our example, ant
leave it to their children, and so it NAV b.
postponed from one generation to tn
i. next, until, in the end, disasters may over
take the nation before the debt is provide,
for. Our public credit will thus be Sc
riously impaired, and our prospects O
funding the debt at lower rate of inter
est utterly overthrown.
