To MAKE HENS LAy.-Put two OF
more quarts of water in kettle, and
one large pepper, or two small ones
then put the kettle over the fire.
When the water boils, stir in coarse
Indian meal until you have thick
mush. Let it cook an hour or 50 -
feed hot. Horseradish chopped hne
and stirred into mush as prepared IN
the above directions, and for results
we are getting from FIVE to ten eggs
per day, whereas previous to feeding
we had not had eggs for long time
We hear good deal of complaint
from other people about eating eggs
To such we would warmly recon-
mend cooked feed, fed hot. Boiled
apple skins, seasoned with red pep
per, or boiled potatoes, seasoned with
horseral.h, are good for feed, much
better than unc. oked food. Corn,
when fed to the hen by itself has a
tendency to fatten rather than pro-
duce the more profitable egg laying
A spoonful of sui phur, stirred with
their feed occasionally, Will rid them
of vermin and tone mp their system,
1t especially goes for young chickens
or turkeys. Out Of flock Of ten
hatched last November we have los
but one. They have been fed with
cooked food mostly, and arc growing
finely.-OLio Farmer.

DR.. ]. II. Hanaford says in thu
Hearth and Home: While it may
not be judicious for the aged and
those Of limited vital powers to dress
or undress in cold rooms, so cold as to
cause suffering, it is undesirable to
sleep in a warm room, or such room
as would be comfortable during the
day. Such warmth of the air breathed
is always more or less facilitating, d.
rectly from its unnatural warmtb'and
also from the fact that such rarehed
air does not contain the needful oxy-
gen at each inspiration,to effect in the
best possible manner the wonderful
changes in the body intended during
this period of rest, recuPera ion and
transformation"

HuLlED CoRN-Take white corn, II
you can get it; none but plum corn;
shsll and boil it in week I've until the
hull is broken then clean off the lye'
fill the kettle, or turn the corn into
dishpan take your hands and rub the
corn we'll; wash in several waters
(the old way is nine times), but SIX
will do; they clean your kettle ard
aeturn to the stove; put in plenty OF
water and boil until very tender
which usually takes almost the entire
day. As the water coils away add
more. 1t is better to add hot water
than cold.

have sent the aged mother out to beg in the
streets. and the money she got they spent in
liquor. John had been working for week In
Belleville. y. j., and on his return on Wednes-
day night. with his wages the family began n
drunken carouse. They lived in the stable. II

PASTOR OWENS BOARD BILE.
A Reverend Debtor whose Flock would moi
Believe that lie wns Buried.

MILFORD, Pa, June 10.-In the month Of
February 1878. d. F. Owen OF Centre County
was admitted to the Newark IN. j. NJ. f. Con-
ference. and sent to preside over the River
dale NJ. f. Church ut Dingmans. In Pike County.
He made favorable impression. He was about
25 years Of age. good looking. and an interest
ing speaker. He remained in Dingman's for a
year. but then tired OF the place and quilted his
charge in the latter part OF April last Shortly
thereafter u WINS whispered about the neighbor-
hood that Mr. Owen had borrowed considerable
sums OF money from several OF his parishioners,
and IL was subsequently ascertained that he had
left unpaid a large board bill.
Weeks passed away. but no intelligence oil
the young minister was received. Steps were
about being taken to ascertain his whereabouts
when an anonymous letter was received by one
OF his creditors, dated PhilliDshurg. Centre
County. Pa. stating that tho Rev. ID. L. Owen
his father. and two others, had been killed by
the falling in OF n coal mine near that place
This report occasioned considerable gossip
The newspapers were carefully scrutinizrd
but no account Of the accident could
be found. and II came TO be believed
instigation Of the pastor in the hope that his
creditors would make no further efforts to
obtain their money. One OF the creditors wrote
to the Postmaster Mt Phillshurg. inquiring
whether mn accident OF the kind described had
occurred. A reply soon came back that no
accident at tho mines had occurred. and that
ID. i. Owen was preaching in the western part
OF Pennsylvania.
Mr.. owen was an admirer Of women and
while ut Dingman's won tho friendship and
theee must have advised him OF tho discovery
OF his whereabouts. for he suddenly disap-
penred from the place where he was preaching
