OF CANARY BIRDS.

A good remedy for pips or gaps in
canaries is cayenne pepper. The method
of applying it is to soak cracker in
water until you can make paste of it,
and mix in about fifth part of its bulk
cayenne pepper. Feed with this paste
for day or two, taking care that the
bird has plenty of water. In regard to
setting, if you have room in which to
hang your cage that is moderately warm
night and day, you may let them begin
to make nests about the lst of Febru-
airy. The cage should be hung against
the wall in the darkest part of the room,
with the nest end toward the window,
and that covered with sheet of paper;
the nest should be of wire or wicker
work, and have piece of cloth or fan
mel stitched into it so as to fit exactly.
Then ravel out a bit of hemp rope or
string into threads four or five inches
long and lay them loosely in the cage or
the nests for the birds to arrange them
according to their own liking. During
the breeding season some hemp seed
should be mixed with the canary and
rape seed which is their ordinary food,
and an egg boiled very hard and cut
should be placed in their cage, both
yolk and shell being needed by the
breeding birds. For a few days after
the eggs are laid, all loud noises and
conclusions are to be avoided for fear of
adding them. The slamming Of door,
or letting any heavy article fall. or firing
a gun near them at that time will spoil
the eggs, and if thunder storm occur
they will certainly be spoiled unless
the room is carefully shut up and the
windows closed After the bird is
formed in the egg there is not SO much
danger from conclusions of air. Even
after the young birds are fully fedged
care should be taken to preserve them
from cold. Fine broods have been lost
by hanging them out in the sun and
leaving them too long exposed to the
| air

A DEBATABLE QUESTION.

While much has been written concern
ing the use of .put up" medicines. the
question is still an open one. and de-
mands of the people a careful consider
alton. The salient points may be briefly
stated, and answered as follows: lst-
Are the sick capable of determining their
real condition. the nature of their mala-
dy, and selecting the proper remedy or
means of cure? 2d-Can a physician.
no matter how skillful, prepare uni
versal remedy, adapted to the peculiar
ailments of large class of people, re-
siding in different lattitudes. and subject
to various climatic influences In answer
to the first proposition, We would say,
diseases are named and known by certain
signs or symptoms, and, as the mother
does not need a physician to tell her that
her child has the whooping-c cough, or in
dictate a remedy, SO people when afflicted
with many of the symptoms concomitant
to ..impure Blood ''torpid liver" and
''bad digestion" require no other knowl-
edge of their condition, or the remedy
indicated, than they already possess.
Second proposition-Many physicians
argue that diseases are sectionally pecul-
lar, and that their treatment must there
fore vary, and yet qulnine, morphine.
podophyllin, and hundreds of other rem
edies are prescribed in all countries to
overcome certain conditions. Is it not,
therefore, self-evident that a physician
whose large experience has made him fa-
miliar with the many phases incident to
all impurities Of the blood, general and
nervous debility, liver complaint, dys-
pepsla, consumption. and catarrh, can
prepare series of remedies exactly
adapted to meet the conditions manifest,
wherever, and by whatever means, it may
have been engendered ? The family
medicines prepared by R. V. Pierce. M.
D.. of Buffalo, N. Y, fulfill the above
requirements. Many physicians prescribe
them in their practice. His Golden Med
ical Discovery has no equal as a blood
purifier and general tonic, while his
Favorite Prescription cures those weak
nesses peculiar to women, after physlc-
ians have failed. His Pleasant Purga-
tive Pellets, which are sugar coated and
little larger than mustard seeds. are a
safe and certain cure for "torpid'' liver
and constipation. If you wish to save

How many take wrong view of life,
and waste their energies and destroy
their nervous system in endeavoring to
accumulate wealth, without thinking of
the present happiness they are throw
ing away. 1t is not wealth or high sta
tion which makes man happy. Many
of the wretched beings on earth have
both; but it is radient. sunny spirit,
which knows how to bear little trials
and enjoy comforts, and thus extract hap
piness from every incident in life.

TO WASH UNBLEAoHED GooDs.-Un-
bleached cotton should not be boiled or
put into very hot water the first three
or four washings, for it will set the
color. Wash in warm soap-suds then
rinse, and hang on the line to dry in a
sunny place, and it will soon become
quite white.

How TO WASH FLANNELs.-FlaLnels,
to prevent shrinking, should be washed
in soap-suds (never Rub soap on.) made
as hot as the hands will bear; and
when cleansed should be wrung and put
into clear hot water, and allowed to re-
main few minutes. Then change to
more hot water, wiring. shake well, and
hang out as soon as possible. This
rule will apply to merinos, cashmeres. or

tack them together, and cover with

No housekeeper has any valid claim
to neatness, cleanliness, who makes her
beds as soon as they are vacated or, if
she has such claim, it is based on the
condition of ignorance. TO demonstrate
this, let it be remembered that of all
food and drink taken, about three-ffths
pass out of the system through the out
lets of the skin the pores-about seven
millions IN number. This waste and
effete putrid matter is dead and poison
GUS, passing off more rapidly by night.
and becoming more or less entangled in
the bedding and on the surface of the
body. Hence the necessity for bathing
and brushing. with still greater necessity
for airing and purifying the bedding.
This is done most effectually by ex-
posture in the light of the sun, and in
morning air. Indeed. the sun is the
great purifier, and nothing is hid from
the heat thereof" And here it may be
remembered that the bedding of the
sick, so soon saturated by the filth of
acute diseases. by being changed once
in at least six hours, and exposed to the
free sunlight for the same time, will be
safe with half the washing otherwise
absolutely needed. Such clothes cannot
be kept too clean, while there is no dan
ger of too much care in these respects,

acute diseases as fevers and infamma.

Affections of the Eye, Ear. Throat, Lungs and
Bronchial Tubes which in many cases accompany
severe case of Catarrh. The infiamed and dis
eased condition of the mucous membrane is the
cause of all these troubles and until the system
has been brought properly under the influence of
the RADICAL CURE, perfect freedom from them
cannot be reasonably expected.
1t Is but three years since SANFORD'S RADl.
CAL CURE was placed before the public, but in
that short time it has found its way from Maine TO
California, and is everywhere acknowledged by
druggists and physicians TO be the most successful
preparation for the thorough treatment of Cstarrh

more Importance when it is coupled with the state
