when the Bowels are Disordored

No time should be lost in resorting to a suit
able remedy. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
the most reliable and widely ly-esteemed medi-
cine of its class. It removes the causes OF
constipation, or OF undue relaxtion of the in.
testines, which are usually indigestion or a
misdirection of the bile. When it acts as a
cathartic, it does not grippe and violently evacu-
ate, but produces gradual and natural effects,
very unlike those of drastic purgative; and
its power of assisting digestion nullifes those
irritating conditions of the mucous membrane
of the stomach and intestinal canal which pro-
duce first diauhea, and eventually dysentery.
The medicine is, moreover, an agreeable one,
and eminenty pure and wholesome. Appetite

A WRITER in the Southern Farmer
says that bis cow gives all the milk that
is wanted in family of eight, and that
from it, alter taking out of it all that is
required for other purposes, 260 pounds
OF butter were made this year. This is,
10 part, his treatment of the COW: If
you desire to get a large yield Of rich
milk, give your cow every day water
slightly warm and slightly sailed, in
which bran has been stirred to the rate
Of one quart to two gallons of water.
You will find, if you have not tried this
daily practice, that your COW will give
twenty-five per cent. more milk imme-
diately under the effects of it, and she
will become 80 attached to the diet as to
refuse to drink clear water unless very
thirsty. But this mess she will drink
almost any time, and ask for more. The
amount of this drink necessary is an
ordinary water pailful at time, morn
ing, noon and night.

Face to Face wi n Disease.

How often it happens that although We
have witnessed the ravages of disease in the
case of others, we disregard his warning sig
nal in our OWL. 1t is only when we find him
face to face with US that we really perceive
how grim he is. Then, perchance, when it is
too late, medicinal aid is sought. His avant
courier, his forerunner, is physical weakness.
Fortily the system, and you are armed against
him. The finest tonic for this purpose is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which renders
digestion easy and complete, nourishes the
system, improves the appetite, fives strength;
yielding sleep, counteracts biliousness, and
keeps the bowels in first rate order. Lean
ness, and unnatural wanne>s and sallowness
of the face, are obviated by it, and so genial
and benifcent are it's effects, that not only
is the body invigorated and regulated by its
use, but dependency banished from the
mind.

The janitor, acting under instructions
from the proper officials, had purchased
a second hand coal-stove, and set it up
where he thought it would do the most
good, He had paid careful attention to
the sellers inst ructions as to how to start
a fire, and an hour before the usual time
for opening the meeting he had set out
to take the chill off the room. No one
will ever know whether it was bag of
powder or ton of nitro-glycerlne which
suddenly went off a. the janitor was
down on his hands and knees to examine
the interior of the stove through the
windows. The explosion shook old Par
adise Hall with great violence, filled the
street with smoke. and the fremen found
the janitor wedged in between the wood
box and the burglar proof safe, chewing
away at broken bench, and wondering
if he felt any more used up than Ben
Butler. The boys left few barrels OF
water scattered loosely around as q sign
that they had been there, and the re-
mains OF the stove were carefully laid
aside and marked: Look out for the
dog"

Because the penalties of physiological laws
are not executed speedily, some fancy they
are void. But when the system breaks down,
and almost hopeless complications arise,
which the family physician, by reason of his
limited experience, fails to relieve, the per
tinency of the above inquiry is apparent.
Many remedies have been specially prepared
for these cases, and many physicians are bid
ding for their patronage. AS before making
a purchase of land, a "search" is required,
and the title carefully examined, so invalids
should carefully investigate the claims of
any physician offering to treat chronic dis>
eases. DR.. Pierce's Family Medicines are
well known, and have effected many cures
where minent' physicians have failed, yet
to accommodate surgical and complicated
cases, and those DESTROYS OF being restored
speedily, DR.. Pierce has erected an elegant
sanitarium, at a cost of nearly half million
dollars. No institution in the world offers
advantages superior to those found in this
establishment Half score of physicians
are in attendance, several of whom have been
prominently connected with leading Amer
can and European Hospitals. Every ian
proved facility for fastening cure that a
liberal expenditure of money could secure
can here be found. Before fully deciding
where to 60, address Invalids' and Tourists
Hotel, for circular.

Farm Life It is common complaint
that the farm and farm life are not appre-
ciated by our people. We long for the
more elegant pursuits, or the ways and
fashions Of the town. But the farmer

ton, and ought to find life sweeter, if
less highly seasoned. than any other.
de alone, strictly speaking, has home.
How can q man take root and thrive
without land? He writes his history
upon his field. How many ties, how
many resources he has; his friendships
with his cattle, his team, his dog, his
trees, the satisfaction in his growing
crops, IN bis improved fields; his init.
macy with nature, with bird and beast.
and with the quickening element forces !:

that it cures white swelling, carbuncles erup-

Useful Suggestions.

GONG in debt has wrecked more for'
tunes and hopes, made more mortgages
and brought more wrinkles to the brow
than anv other mistake farmers are
chargeable with.
CATTLE need sailing in winter as well
as summer. And it is good practice to
mix the salt with wood ashes, double the
amount of ashes to SALT Iowa State
Register.
PICKLES should be touched only with
a dry sroon or ladle. A few drops OF
water, or the introduction of wet spoon,
will sometimes spoil the entire contents
of pickle jar.
JUST think of the enraged feelings a
farmer who finds too late that he had a
squash down in an off corner of the field
that was half pound beaver than the
one that took the prize at the fair.
WHEN velvet is crushed by packing or
use, hold the parts defaced over basin
of hot water-the lining, or wrong side,
next the water-and the "pile" will soon
rise up and look like new.
HANDSOME screens and mantel lam
brequins are made by FASTING colored
pictures, autumn leaves, or other desi gns
upon a background of black cambria,
finishing the whole with coat of good
varnish.
BEEF L1vER.--Cut in slices half an
inch thick, pour boiling water over it,
drain, and broil it with thin slices of
pork dipped in -four; cut it in mouthfuls,
and heat it with butter, pepper and salt
for three or four minutes.
MEAT ROLLS boil some potatoes
until quite done, mash them smooth and
add an equal quantity of salt meat chop
ped fine. Mix with this several we'll
beaten eggs, one spoonful of butter, some
pepper and salt. Bake in little cakes
like potato cakes.
DRIED rose leaves sell for six dollars a
pound, but any farmers wife ought to
be able to have as many as she likes.
They make the most delicious of sachels,
either for the bureau or the linen closet,
and, when mixed with dry salt, retain
their perfume for long time.
To make mats for the 'table.-Take
small sticks Of black walnut and pine !;
plane them down to ene>sixteenth of an
inch in thickness and one.half inch in
width. Place them alternately, and
glue to a piece of heavy cloth. They
can be cut round, square, diamond shape
or any other pretty way, and when var
nished make quite pretty ornamental
mat.
The horse that is about to be driven
on journey needs hardening by exer-
disappearing by sweating out the body
to purify and increase the circulation of
the blood, and also by handwriting the
legs to make them firm and elastic-a
preparation in some degree correspond
ing with that attained by horse that
is daily driven on the road for ordinary
work. For one week from the start they
need daily exercise, commencing with
eight or ten miles. and gradually increas.
ing to twenty per day. This exercise,
with appropriate food, will harden their
muscles, strengthen their limbs and pre-
pare them to perform their tasks without
giving out on the road, materially de.
clining in flesh, or seriously exhaustiDg
their physical powers.

W1NDGALLs in the horse are the result
of severe work. The back sinews are
encased in a fine sheath, which contains
synovia, or as it is commonly termed,
ioint-oil." The use of this oil is to
facilitate the motions OF the two great
fexor tendons une upon the other; so
when the pace is too fast or the labor too
energetic, the delicate membrane which
secretes the synovia becomes irritated.
The consequence of irritation is increased
secretion. More ioint.oil is poured forth
than the sac can contain. The mem
brane, therefore, bags out at those points
which are weakest. Windga(ls generally
appear on the hind legs, because these
members generally do the heaviest por-
tions of the horses work. There may
be one or three on both sides of each

Unimproved Agriculture. A
South Carolina farmer writes to the
Southern Cultivator:
Whilst the English farmer by the
application of scientific principles and
the aid OF mechanical art has annually
increased his crops, enriched his land and
improved his stock, we, by our system
of cultivation and management mot the
system of labor), have extended the
broomsedge fields, widened the red gull
Lies, swept away tie noble forest and
only increased the annual crop by tacking
on an additional acre to Cuffee's task, OF
putting to task an additional Cufee.
Can it be doubted that this disastrous
policy is susceptible of vast improve
mentf Yet, how many young and in
telilgent planters are to-day pursuing
the identical routine practiced by their
overseer twenty-five years ago, and
scratching the soil with the same tools
which their cd greyheaded blacksmith
learned to Jorge in his YOUTH"
This is Southern agriculture unim>
proved, but unavoidably made worse as
titled land grows poorer from one decade
to another. 1t is farming with all grass
culture and real husbandry left out.
The fundamental principle Of compen-
sating the soil for all it produces is not
recognized; but crops are harvested and
sold as one would dip water from river
that is never dry. This practice knows
nothing of restitution, and nothing of
plant food or how plants are formed.
The great facts that ninety-nine parts in
one hundred OF c,tton are nothing but
water and air, which cost very little to
the wise planter, are not considered. All
progress in useful knowledge is ignored,
while improvement in cotton production
: is regarded as impossible. Chemistry,
iahysiology and climatology have no
ing aiming for this class of farmers. They
\ VERT certain agricultural ideas and
nj rec,ices which they impart with reli-
- faith to their children and grand.
