In Praise of Mutton.

The demand for mutton always i'll
crease us Il community increases in age
and wealth. Old butchers in this city
state that the demand for mutton, as
compared with beef, increases every
year. AT present mutton retalls at
higher price than beef As to spring
lamb, it is a dainty that always com
mands a fancy price. A farmer who
has the conveniencies for raising very
early lambs has source of income SUI
perior to anything involving the same
amount of capital. In this as almost
everything depends on the season, the
earlier in the season the higher the
price.
Sheep are the best adapted to fur
nishing meat for farmers family OF
any animal he raises The carcass be-
ing small, it can generally be eaten
fresh, without any of it being liable to
injury. Mutton can be kept much
longer than beef under the same cir
cumstances, and its flavor is improved
by its being kept a reasonable length of
time. No meat is the superior of NUT
ton when cured with salt, boiled and
eaten with vegetables. Cold roast
mutton is superior to beef, owing to its
fine flavor and excellent keeping quail
tiles. A fine mutton chop is the incest
breakfast-dish that can be found for
the same cost.
The health and the bill of fare of
farmers would both be better if
fresh mutton more generally took the
place Of salt pork. 1t is an easy thing
for farmers TO provide Themselves with
a constant supply Of this most deli
cious meat BY keeping Il few wcth-
ers in Il small pasture by themselves
and granting them, an animal may be
ready to slaughter at amy time. Any
farmer can learn to properly dress
sheep, and the operation requires no
appliances. Sheep pclts always bring
cash, and can generally be sold at good
prices ut home.

A Heroic Pioneer Girl,

The death of Joseph Cooper, of
Howard county, one of the oldest and
most highly respected residents of this
section, recalls startling incident con-
nected with the Cooper Fort, which
was located about eight miles above
this city, on the bank of the Missouri
river. The time this occurred was in
the year 1915 or 1916, and at that
time the country was full of hostile
Indians.
just at daybreak the settlement was
alarmed by an attack of Indians, and it
was only by the utmost bravery and
daring that they were retained in check
long enough to allow the families to
rush inside the fort for safety. Once
within the wall, they held the savages
i'm defiance-for time only. On con-
sultation, it was decided that the
whites could resist but short
time the attack of the Indians and, in
order to secure aid, Il courier must be
sent to the Kincaid fort, almost i'm
mediately opposite this city, and about
ten miles from the place in which they
were surrounded. 1nerc were Dul
few men, and it was too hazardous a
trip to think of sending woman.
What to do they knew not. But de-
lay was dangerous every moment was
fraught with peril, and had it not been
for the heroism of Miss Mile
Coopcr-a sister of the worthy pioneer
mentioned above all probability
they would have persisted. She step
ped calmly forward, and babe them
bring her favorite horse belonging to
the family, and with the tears and
prayers of her imperiled friends, rode
forth on her noble mission. AS she
dashed out of the inclosure the muir
derous Indians let fly shower of ar
rows, and with blood trickling down
her horses sides, she fairly flew from
danger. In a short time she arrived
at the Kincaid fort and related her
story. Reinforcements were sent out
Immediately, and before the dinner
hour the rascally redskins were routed
and the settlers saved. The noble
bravery of the young girl won her a
name that will not soon be forgotten
in this part of the state.-BoonepiLe
(Jfo.) Pioneer.

From the Worlds Dspensary Printing
Office and Bindery, Buffalo, N. Y, we have
received "The Peoples Common Sense Med
zeal Adviser, in plain English; or, Medr-
cine Simplifed," by r. V. Pierce, NJ. d.,
CounselOr-in- chief of the Board of Physicians
and Surgeons at the Worlds Dispensary.
Whoever helps humanity in its struggle with
its inherent weaknesses and diseases, to bear
or cure, is its benefactof. Ignorance is not
only of itself a cause of disease and mortality,
but it is the enemy of every effort to cure or
mitigate. Nothing will so speedily remove
this cause of knowledge IAN elementary one
at least) of the diseases to which we are heir,
well those superinduced by our own
imprudence. DR.. Pierce has rendered, in
our Judgment, a benefactOrs service, both to
the afflicted and to the profession, in his dag
noss of the diseases treated of, and in the
presentation of the philosophic principles
involved in their cause and removal. He is
sparing of remedies, and usually prescribes
such as are safe in unskilled hands. As Il
book merely of abstract knowledge 1t is ex-
ceedingly readable and interesting, especially
the following subjects:-Cerebral Physiology,
Human temperamcnts, PseudoHygiene, the
Nursing of the Sick, Sleep, Food, Ventilation,
etc. In one chapter on another subject so
delicate in its nature that it is shut UP beyond
the domain of warning to all but physicians,
so accursed in its results i'm modern society,
he is most explicit, and alike true to God, to
virtue, to life, and to society, shows the truth
as presented in the teachings of Scripture
that life begins with conception,-wit great
force, to which is added faithful warnings.
Price of the Medical Adviser $780, sent
postpaid. Address the author at Buffalo, N Y.

Christmas Presents.

We were spending the evening at
the Kings, when little Johnny looked
up from his torn volume of "Chat-
terbox" and asked his mother if he
couldn't have new Chatterbox" for
Christmas. Mr.. King spoke up sud-
denly and answered. him: "No, Johnny,
you can't. You might as well know
now, as ever, that we're poor, and it
will be hard times this winter, and we
can't afford to buy Christmas presents
or anything else that isn't necessary
My eye rested on the welI-flled cigar
holder on the mantel, and l wondered
how necessary that was; for Johnny
was locking up very pitifully into his
mothers face, and tears were in his
eyes; but his mother whispered to
him, Never mind-Santa Claus al
ways has something for good little
boys" and he kissed her goodnight
with a smile, and went into the next
room to bed with his younger brother.
As soon as the door closed l said,
& I'm afraid a great many little John
MES will have to do without Christmas
this year, but / don't believe in it,"

" DOWN TO SLEEP. "

december woods are bare and still;
December days are clear and bright;
Zach noon burns up the mornings chill,
The mornings snow is gone by night;
Each day my steps grow slow, grow light,
As through the woods reverent creep,
Watching all things lie "down to sleep"
never knew before what beds
Fragrant to smell, and soft to touch
The forest Sits, and shapes, and spreads
| never knew before how much
OF human sound there is in such
Low tones, as through the forest sweeps
When all wild things lie "down to sleep"
Each day find new coverlids
Tucked in, and more sweet eyes shut tight;
Sometimes the viewless mother bids
Her ferns kneel down, full in my sight;
/ hear their chorus of good night
And half l smile, and half | weep,
Listening, while they lie down to sleep"
December woods are bare and STILL
December days are bright and good;
LIES noon, burns up lfe's morning chill I;
Lifes night rests feet which long have stood;
Some warm, soft bed in the field or wood,
The mother will not fail to keep,
When we can lay us down to sleep"

A HEALTHY FREE LUNcHER.

While on his travels, a tramp noticed
a placard in front of bar-room. II
bore the pleasing legend: Gree
Lunch, and he went in, walked unos
tentatiously up to a plate, and com

then the har-keeper walked up to the
cadayerons wretch, and SAID:

pay for drink"
al know it." said the tramp.
Well, then, why don't you con
form to the ruler"
"Cause / go i'm for health, and
don't drink till / am through eating.
The blr-keeper turned his back for
momert, and the tramp slipped three
sandwiches into his coat pocket, and
calmly deyoured four then he walked
up to the bar, and to the dispenser Of
stimulants huskily whispered:
"Gimme glass o water, will YEP
"WhatI water, after four sand
wicbes?" beloved the bar-keeper
angily.
"Yos'r, water" replied the tramp.

And he hobbled out but if he had

wouldn't have been satisfied with tho
