HELP TO MOTHERS NURSING INFANTs.-
1t is Il conceded fact that mothers who have
the care, anxiety and draught of nursing in
iants are weak and need the aid of some
strengthening tonic to make up the nour-
ishment required for the growth of the
child. Ale, porter,and lager beer have often
been recommended OF late since physicians
have become aware that Port Grape Wine
produced by Alfred Specr, Of passaic, n. j.,
is strictly pure thay have prescribed it in
stead of ale and porter. This wine is prin-
cipally sough for by mothers who have nur-
sing infants as the best supply medium to be
found. The wine is rich in body and not in
toxicating but gently stimulating Druggists
generally keep it, and sell it for dollar Il
bottle. -LHQu!rcr,

Last Monday night party of young men
from Buckhorn started on Il coon hunt, When
near the Montour county line one of the var
mints' was treed, but so high vas its place OF
refuge that several shots from the guns OF the
party failed to dialodge it, One of the hunters,
ayoung man named Shoemaker, volunteered to
ascend the tree and drive the coon out of the
top. After climbing to height Of more than
thirty feet he in some manner missed his hold
and fell to the ground, dislocating his ankle and
bruising himself badly. lie was cared for by
his companions and will recover from the effects
Of his fall but we doubt if he hunts 'coons again
this season.

COMM THRo' THE RYE.-An eXchang
says that the popular opinion Of the mean
ing of Coming through the Rye, is entirely
erroneous His theory is that the poet al
ludes ro the river "Rye," through which the
girls had to wade on their way to market,
and that custom sanctioned the theft of a
kiss, if the lassie was met in mid-stream
To support his theory he refers the reader to
the original, and argues from it that the lass
wet her clothes in the stream.
"Jennie is a wat, pur ladle;
Jennie S seldom dry;
She drag1t her petticOatc,
Comm thr ough the Rye
Now, in this short verse are two proofs
that our contemporary is wrong, and that
popular opioion is right. The printer has
clcverly added his theory by setting rye"
with Il capital r, as if it was the name of a
river, but Burns wrote it, and his Scotch
publisher printed it as it was intended, 'ryee'
that is grain. Again, the word drag it
is Scotticism for spatteredor spotted, which
precisely expresses the condition of "puir
Jennie's petticoates" while dawdlng through
a field Of half, or quarter grown rye, wheat,
or oats, after heavy dew, or Il shower OF
rain. Any one who has been in the country
in the spring, and observed the milk mai Z
tripping through the grass will understand
the poets meaning at glance.
