they need, then, is tonic, not a sedstive.
The latter is only useful when there is in.

necessity exists for producing quistude of
the brain. HOstetteT's Stomach Bitters re-
stores tranquility of the nerves by endowing
them with the vigor requisite to bear, with

the ordinary impressions produced through
the media of sight, hearing and reflection.
Nay, it does more than this it enables them
to sustain a degree of tension from mental

as Irish cooks are, tWe-thirds ov them

Therefore, girls, yu will see that after yu

RaIAsnE sheep.

The following communication to the
Ohio Farmer on this interesting subject

practical experience lends weight to his
words:
Ny plan is to obtain the best possible
breeds suited to my location and market,
which lain ID the cross of the COtswOld

the wool qualities and the Shutdown

makes the size and fattening qualities.
The cross makes a very hardy and pro-
life sheep; the wool brings the highest
market price, as do also the sheep and
lambs l commenced the business by
buying some grated COtswOlds and some

Poems at the Planets.

Neptune, the most remote of the plan
cts of the solar system, is about 2,7OO,-
900, GOO miles from the sun.
II is supposed that Mercury has noun
tains higher than the Himalayss, and
VOLCANOES in q state of activity.
Out of all the myriad lights in the
heavens, the earth is only visible to the
Noon, Mars, Mercury and Venus.
The earth is 749 times smaller than
Saturn, and it's mean distance from US
is over 81 O0O, 900 miles.
Uranus can never see US at all, as 1t IS
1888, 900, 900 miles from the sun.
The temperature in Mercury Is sup
posed to be seven times hotter than our
torrid zone; therefore if it is inhabited
it must be by people very differently
constituted from ourselves.
It is believed that Venus has an at
mosDhere much like ours, and mountain
peaks i've or six times higher than the
/ Tenerife, their sides bright with flowers
| and birds of brilliant plumage.
The moon never leaves Ou= globe
| therefore is is called our satellite. Though
to us it looks larger than the stars, it Ii
really much smaller than any of them
/ but much nearer TO us.
Astronomers have calculated that Lh'
mountains and extinct volcanoes in the
moon are higher than any on our earth

hill, nearly 80 rods away is a Tavine
with a cool spring brook, fed
by few springs near by; through this
nil Mr.. Hershy has tunneled, and built
a brick arch $50 feet under ground,
slightly ascending to the brook. The
Object of this arch, which I think is
about five by six feet, is cold air ventila-
ton. / presume this is nothing new to
some of the reading public. To me it
is or was not many months since, a new
mode of obtaining cool air. There will
be no difficulty in forcing a large or
small quantity f air through this large
arch; but the query presents itself to
me whether a quantity of summer air
sufficient tn cool and ventilate a
large creamery will not warm that
arch as it passes through, so that
its cooling power will bs greatly
| diminished in the latter part of sum
mer. Any experience and information
/ which the Country Gentleman can fur
nish on this subject, from its correspond
! ents, will be interesting to its reader.

west of south Muscatine, containing

Underground Ventilation.

Under the above heading en- iowa cor
respondent OF the Country Gentleman
makes the following statements
We find that butter made at creameries
brings a be'tAr price than family dairy !;
beeide4, being mad in much larger
quantities and partly by machinery, it
would appear as though it could be made
cheaper. The best feature of the
creamery and factory cheese probably is
that il Is made according to rule aud
uniformly. There are many creameIiee
in the west and the number is on the
Increase. Pork is worth four or five
cents Il pound, wheat one and half cents,
butter eighteen to twenty cents, and the
freight to New York and other seapOrts
is about the same on all these pro ducts.

Terrors of the Elevated Railroad.

The terrors of the trains on the ele-
waited railroad on Sixth avenue, New
York, are thus described by the New
York Times: "When these trains first
began to run the noise was hardly bear
able. We were told we would get used
10 it, and when things got in working
order we would not even know ii W Is
there We have waited as long as we
could before entering our protest, and
now feel that, as property holders and
taxpayers, we have certain rights which
have to be respected and protected.
From early morning until long after
midnight there is q steady rumble and
roer in the air, one train taking up the
sound, and only leaving it to be equally
treated by its successor or a passing
train. This rumble and racket begins
long before the train comes in sight, and
grows louder and louder, until it bursts
upon you like a tornado whirl, a
rush, Snd Ills over. But, before we
nave time to resume our broken con.
versation, another rumble and rattle j,
heard, and a similar sound to that which
bat s moment ago greeted our ears !:
