That Insldious Foe 10 Health,

An atmosphere impregnated with the seeds
OF malaria, is rendered harmless by the
timely use Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
and If resort to this benign protective
agent has unwisely been deferred until the
fever fits have developed, it will have the
effect Of checking them and preventing
their return. This statement is CorrOb-
Grated by thousands who have tried this
medicine for fever and ague and bilious
temmlttent fever, besides affections OF the
stomach, liver and bowels peculiarly rife
in malariOns localities. Throughout the
West indeed in every part Of the American
continent where malaria prevails, il is the
accepted specific. Nor Is the area Of its
usefulness circumscribed by the limits Of
the United States, since it is widely used in
South America, Mexico, Australia and
elsewhere. eod&w

4 Domestic Trouble.

A careless man~at South Hill threw a
mug of hot shaving water out of Il
second-story window in reckless man
ner. Instantly the pale air was streaked
with shrieks, and, looking out, he saw
he had emptied the treacherous element
on the head of his wife, who was dig
ging in the geranium bed with n pine
stick. He leaned out Of the window to
laugh in hollow accents, when the sash
fell with frightful velocity, shutting off
his wind. His wife, dismayed at her
unexpected shower bath, and appalled,
at her husbands situation, turned to
run into the house to release him, and
in her haste ran against the baby's cab,
upsetting it, and hurting the baby upon
cactus plant. The domestic upstairs,
hearing the shrieks in the front yard.
and doubling not that the baby had
been devoured by a tramp, sprang down
stairs to the rescue with such alacrity
that she only touched two steps-the
first and the last one-touching the first
with her feet, and the last with her head.
A neighbor, running to the general res
cue, stepped on Il broken plank in the
sidewalk, and fell distance of one
hundred and one feet, spraining his
ankle so badly That he won't walk for
three weeks. BY this time, the man,
with a violent effort, which scalped the
entire back portion OF his mead, got out
of the window, having previously drop
ped his razor, which fell on the edge of
a hower-pot and nicked itself worse
than coach-horse, aud comparative
order was soon restored. But the man
says he will never again tempt the
anger of the immortal gods by shaving
himself.

RAISING DucKs-A large supply OF
water is not necessary To success III
rearing ducks, yet it is quite luxury
for them, and in the breeding season 1t
is highly beneficial; but duckhnSs
should never be allowed great supply
of water till they are we'll tledged. They
should be kept in dry yard, and fed
often on soft scalded food. Feed them
whole grain till they are well matured.
Clear Indian meal is too strong for
them. Mix ii with wheat bran, the
coarsest, and thoroughly scald it. Never
feed raw mush to ducks or chicks. If
corn and oats are ground together and
used instead of corn and meal, all the
better. Ground worms are speedily de
voured by them, and should be sup
piled once day, if convenient Spade
up the earth in moist place, and let
the ducks pick out the worms During
the breeding season old ducks should
only be fed once day, if they have ac-
cess to stream or pond Feed them
ut night, and they will always be found
ready for their evening meal, and can
be easily secured and kept in till they
have deposited their eggs, which they
generally do at or about the break OF
day. If vou want your ducks To sup
ply you with goodly number of fertile
eggs, don't over-ieed them. but use the
same kind recommended for ducklings,
with occasionally whole grain sparingly,
Follow these directions, and success will
attend you.
VENTILATION. Many persons com
plain of always getting up tired in the
morning This is very often due to de
fectiVc ventilation of the bedroom, or
from using an undue amount of bed
clothes and bedding Feather beds are
too soft and yielding, and partially en-
vclop the sleeper, thus producing pro-
fuse perspirations. The habit Of lying
too much under blankets is also very
pernicious, by reason of the carbonic
acid gas cxhaled 10y the sleeper being
respired Again, IT was common
error to suppose that simply opening n
window little at the top n room can
be ventilated. People forget that for
proper ventilation there must be an IN
let and oStlet for the air. In bedrooms
there is often neither, and if there is
fireplace it is generally closed up. Again
it is II mistake to suppose that foul air
goes to the top of n room Ger
tainly the heated air goes to the top, but
the chief impurity, the carbonlc acid,
falls to the bottom. There is nothing
so etlcacious III removing the lower
strata of air rs the ordinary open fire
place, especially if there is fire burn
ing.

And Meta sank on her knees at the
old lady's feet, with streaming eyes, and
voice choked by sobs.
Mrs. Darkcdale put out her hand and
stroked the girls hair kindly.

There's not SO much harm done after
all There would have been if the
jewels had been in their case, but they
were not.

No said Mrs. Dark edalc. Z" l took

to reset them. left the case because
it was too cumbersome to carry. They

only your loss has not been quite SO
expensive Il one, and my jewels are

Predicting the Discovery OF Metals.

The Russian chemist, Mendelijef, pro-
pounded the theory seven years ago
that the physical properties of an ele-
ment are periodic functions gifts atomic
weight" and then went to work to prove
its accuracy by calculations. As there
were two missing links in his chain of
reasoning, he predicted that some day
two metals would be found to fill them.
One Of these metals has been discover
ed in France, and has been called Gal
lium; the other is thought to occur IN
company with arsenic and titanium,
and should it be discovered, will prove
that the finding of the first metal, Gal
lium, was not merely coincidence,
but proof Of the accuracy of Mendeli-
JETS law 1t is proposed to call the
missing metal Ek-aluminium.

IT is not surprising that the Arctic re-

on every part of the coast. Boulders,
pebbles, and headlands are covered with
ice scratches and grooves. Terraces
fringe nearly every valley, and have
been formed by fresh water banked up
by the ice. They rest ON marine beds
of boulder clay containing sea shells
and are found at considerable elevations,
sometimes being more than 800 feet

THE present number of the PRESS
closes the first half of volume niue of
the paper. We would pause here to
remind those of our subscribers who
are in arrears that we are greatly in
need of money, did we think it of any
Use. But there are many, altogether
too many of them, who seem TO think
we can live upon promises as thin as
air. Still it isn't true. There is not u
stroke of work or a cents worth of ma
terial employed in our business for
which we do not have to pay cash, and
to pay promptly. If any of these de-
linquents can tell us how to do it we
be happy to be informed. We pre-
sumo these occasional hints are annoy
ing to subscribers who pay promptly.
They are not meant for such. They
are unpleasant and not very profitable
thus far to us, but we know of no 9TH
er way in which to make known our
necessities, and We hope that hereafter
there will be no occasion to refer to
the unpleasant subject.
