At this season the vegetable world takes a new
lease of life; but to the sensitive and delicate
members of the human family it is a time of dan
ger and often of great suffering. The moisture
which rises from the earth and hangs suspended
over it in the form of morning and evening mists
and fogs, holds in solution, to speak, the me
phitic clements which produce fever and ague,
remttent fevers, rheumatism, and many painful
nervous disturbances, and which aggravate dys-
pepsia, biousness and all minor affections Of the
stomach and the bowels. This, therefore, is q
critical period of the year, season when the rem
ovating, refreshing and purifying operation of the
mghtiest of all vegetable tonics and alternatives,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, is salvation to the
weak, and the best security for the continuance of
the health and vigor of the strong. Now is the
time, not only to protect the system against the
common ailments of the season, but to prevent the
disorders incident to a warmer temperature. Let
not the exhausting heats of the summer months
find you unprepared to meet them. A course Of
Hostetters Bitters, commenced now, will put all
the physical energies in fighting trim, double the
capacity of the internal organs to repe the causes
of disease, refresh the brain and clear 1t of all
hypochondriacal cobwebs, and place the whole
physique in an attitude of defense, with every
available point fortified and guarded and as nearly
invulnerable to unwholesome influences as it is
possible for the human structure to be.

What is Water!

BEFORE closing, may be permitted to
ask and to answer the question, What is
water? l suppose some of my readers
are ready to make the Dogberry-like re-
ply, water, sir, is water" That GER
tainly reaches the point by very short
cut, but to the thinking, inquiring man it
is not quite satisfactory. Let US answer
the question from the standpoint of the
chemist. Water is rust. The red pow
der that falls from iron which has long
been subjected to the action of moisture,
is rust of iron. 1t is the oxide of metal,
and so is water. Water is the rust of hy-
drogenium, true metal. This wonder
full element no human eyes have ever
looked upon, and probably never will, as
in its free state it exists only. in the form
of an invisible gas. Quite recently, sci
ence has demonstrated experimentally,
what has long been suspected, that hy-
drogen gas is metal, and capable of as
suming a solid form in alloys. Oxygen,
by uniting with this gaseous metal, rusts,
oxidizes, or burns it, and water is the rust
or ashes. This strange metal, hydroge-
mum, and its oxide, play an important
part in all the operations of nature. 1t
is not alone confined to the little ball of
earth upon which we live, but it exists in
the stellar worlds above us, and in those
misty points of light, the pebule, which
have so long puzzled and perplexed the
astronomer and men versed in the physi-
cal sciences. The recent discoveries by
means of the spectroscope have proved
that this element enters largely into the
uniformed, chaotic masses of matter,
moving in space, of which the worlds
are made 1t is ready, when the forma-
tive act is fully accomplished, for taking
its place, in combination with oxygen, as
water, to aid in the sustentation of ami
NAL and vegetable life upon spheres so
far distant that our imagination even
cannot reach them.-HfOm DR.. Nicl0Is's

Too Short.

THE distance between my post and
Santa Fe was over 300 miles, and to facil-
itate matters l was ordered to survey a
new and short route-cutting off about
70 miles. A company numbering eighty
men was detailed for the purpose, and,
as the course lay partly through a wooded
region, considerable squad was required
to act as aXmen. Three or four lively
black-and-tan terriers accompanied the
command, affording no little amusement
by their activity in swapping up unwary
gophers, rats, mice, and other vermin
The aboriginies, who frequently honored
us with their presence, claiming to be
"Good Indian, me-" were excessively
pleased at those performances. On a
certain occasion, one stalwart fellow, who
spoke few words of English, said to
me:
Nantanh, heap good dog"
yes" replied, ''they are good dogs"
Cut 'um ear, cut 'um tail, make 'um
good dog?"
Certainly; it is because their ears and
tails are trimmed that they get around so
lively"
"Aoughl Me got good dog; cut 'um
tail?"
Yes; bring your dog. I'll have him
fixed for you"
Next day, my Navajo friend appeared
with small, black, Indian flee, sporting
long tail, and ears to correspond. I'm
rolling this precious quadruped from his
blanket, he signified desire to have the
job done without delay; so he called two
men, and bade one hold the dog while the
other docked his tail with an ak. This
did not suit Red skin, who refused to trust
his favorite to the tender mercies of a
savage white man, and preferred to per.
form the operation himself. 1 therefore
ordered one of the men to hold the dogs
tail over a convenient log, while the Other
held his head and fore paws. All being
ready, the Indian seized an ak, but in
stead of using it as any other person
would have done, he swung the blade
high above his head with both hands, as
if the object to be separated required hi:
whole strength. Just then the soldier
who held the tail gave it a sudden pull
while the one at the head gave cor
responding push. Down came the keer
weapon, dividing the unfortunate ''purp'
just forward of the hind quarters. to thu
indefinite disgust of the Indian, who
picked up the disiointed halves, threw
his blanket over his shoulders with in
describable dignity, and exclaimed, il
cultural accents "Ugh - Cut'un

the pig, the more it will eat in proportion
to live-weight, and the more it will gain
in proportion TO the food consumed. We
commence to feed our pigs when two
weeks old, placing a little trough where
the sow cannot get at it. The pigs are
specially fond of boiled beets or man.
gels, mixed with cooked corn meal or fine
wheat-bran. Wean gradually, at from
six to eight weeks old. Until from three
to four months old, the pigs can hardly
be fed too literally. After that and when
running out at pasture, if they are un-
mistakably getting too fat, ease off on
the grain. As "a rule, however, all young
well-bred pigs should have a little grain
in addition to pasture, and the slops of
the house and dairy. See that the pigs
have access to fresh water. They may
not drink much, but it should always be
provided for them, no matter how sloppy
their food may be. Provide ashes, salt,
sulphur, and charcoal. Keep the pens
and troughs clean.-AmericaR Agrtcut-

SeatneSS.

In its essence, and purely for its own
sake, neatness is found in few. Many a
man is neat for appearance sake; there is
an instructive feeling that there is power
in it. When a man consults physician
or lawyer for the first time, or comes to
rent house or borrow money, he will
come in his best dress; lady will cali in
her carriage. A man who means bust
ness and honesty comes as he is, just as
you will find him in his store, his shop,
his counting-house. The most accom-
plished gamblers dress well; the most en-
terprising swindlers are faultlessly cloth
ed, but countless multitudes are but white
washed sepulchres. Too many "don't

Feeding Pigs.

THE system of feeding pigs should be
adapted to the breed. No pig can grow
rapidly on poor food. A wellbred pig
will grow rapidly on good food-a poor
bred pig will not; and this is the real es-
sential difference between them. If you
starve both, the well-bred pig is no better
