DEAR EDrTREss:--ln your issue o
Nov. 4 there are some questions asket
by new correspondent, Evelyn" ant
though she calls on 'Millicent" to re-
ply, will venture to tell my way also
as "In multitude Of counsellors there
is wisdom" l want to hear from
"Millicent" on the subject, aid from
others also. Mistakes are common to
all, and are all right if We do not re-
peat them.
The way manage my butter tray
and ladle is this: Pour boiling water
over them, then place the ladle in the
tray and fill full Of cold water right
fresh from the well. When the butter
is ready to take from the clum, / al.
ways take it out with the ladle and am
never troubled with its sticking.
My cholera remedy is first a pre-
ventatve. Keep their roosts clean,
and disinfect every day with sulphur
and carbolic acid Whitewash once a
week, and assumptions of cholera are
seen, give the affected fowl blue pill.
Last summer / checked the disease in
my flock by giving dose Of calomel.
l was ton miles from drug store and
had to use the means at hand. 1 mix
ed the calomel with corn meal, wet It
with warm water and ted. believe
this to be sure remedy.
Your fowls will Law without "knock
ing them down. if they have a good
range and plenty to eat; but do not
keep them too fat, and do not expect
each hen to lay 365 eggs every year.
They get tired Of work and have to
rest.
If you want to make good biscuit,
get good baking POWDER use Hors-
ford's-and follow implicitly the direc-
tons on the wrapper. If you fail it
will be the fault of the -four. Your ex-
perience with algebra has developed
your reasoning powers, so that you
ought not to regret the knowledge fit.
Be thankful for what you already know;
and as the way to a mans heart is
through his stomach, l doubt not you
will soon learn to appease your lima
tured worser half with lots of well-cook-
ed dainties. No doubt he fails to
please you in many instances, but you
must not tell him of it.

A TRIAL OF COURAGE.
a Story fer Boys.
BY DON JENARDO.

! The youth about whom we are nov
going to write is man. AS man HI
has justified the promise of his youth
His name is Charles Cooper and hi
was reared on the frontier. Charles
was modest, quiet, peaceable DO,
and was never known to engage il
rough, "fisticufF' fights, that not only
delighted the boys of the Western coun
try, but even some of the men.
lt..was desirable thing in those day:
to be hero, and to be a hero one
must be able to whip everybody else
OF This own size and weight" 1t was
a rough time, rough country, and
peopled by rough men.
Charlie. as he was called, lived in a
Village; his father kept a small dry
goods store, and his son, though only
twelve years of age, assisted him in the
store.
1t was in Autumn, and this Western
village was experiencing the effect of
its first school. Charley was sent to
the rude, log school house with twenty
other boys and girls, to learn to "spell.
read, write and cipher" from crusty
old ignorant back.woods school-mas.

This school like many others had
that wonderful parsonage called
"bully." His name was Edward
Forsythe. and he boosted of being able
to whip any boy i'll The school. He
was well muscled. and beng the largest
boy in the school was perhaps able to
make his boast good. On two or
three occasions Ed, as he was usually
called, had struck the boys for ONE
trltiing provocation, or none at all.
No one dared resist him. and he be-
came a petty tyrant. Like most
"bullies" and tyrants, he had educated
himself to fly into q passion a. any
thing, or nothing.
On one bright Autumn day the chill.
dren had holiday, and were nutting
in the large woods south of the village.
Charley was with them, and the bright.
merry lads and lassies were ENJOYING
as only children can when
on a nutting excursion. The boys
tie trees. shook out the bright
hickory-nuts, and the girls gathered
them in baskets and bags. They
caused to rest on the banks of a stream
