Salt salmon should be soaked in
cold water at least twentyfour hours
before it is cooked, and the water should
be changed several times. Boil it in
plenty OF water with some black pepper

cover it with vinegar diluted with some

boiled. 1t should be kept closely Gov

Wien the skin is not well cleaned
and brushed, or when the animal is not
in perfect health, a scurfy, scaly sub
stance will gather on the hide. This
may be removed by carding and brush
ing and by giving the animal some oily

will encourage and increase the circula-
ton and the perspiration from the skin.

The damage done to pastures and
meadows by the grub of the May-bug
is often very great, and the only effect
i've protection the farmer has against its
depredations is through the agency of
the despised and hated crow. At least
SO thinks correspondent of the Anaeri-
can Agriculturist, who makes an earn
est plea on behalf of these sable deni-
zens of the air. The crow, he says, has
great skill in detecting the presence of
the destructive grub, and if allowed to
multiply, would soon exterminate the
pests, or at least reduce their numbers
SO much that they would do no serious
damage. A few hills of corn in spring
time is small loss compared to the grass
crop of whole farm destroyed by
grubs.

Uncle Sans Men.

Uncle Sans letter-carriers are a hardwork-
ing set of men, and are liable to contract rheu-
matism because of the constant exposure to
which they are subjected. Calling at the
Post-office the reporter had a pleasant CONVEX
sation with Mr.. j. II. Mattern, one of the
most popular and clever letter-carriers in In
dianapolis. Mr.. Mattern said that, while in
the army during the civil war, he sprained one
OF his ankles, which was always worse in the
spring during the period of the rapid changes
in the weather. He did not find much relief
from the several remedies he applied. But
two years ago he hit upon St. Jacobs Oil, and
experienced wonderful relief from its use.
Several applications of the Great German
Remedy relieved him entirely. The reporter
talked with Others among the letter-carriers
and found that the Great German Remedy was
popular in the Post-ofiice. They use it for
sore feet, rheumatism, etc, and praise it high
ly.-Ludidnapolis (I,td.) NemS.

The Kindness of Nature.

Nature intended that the art of healing, the
sustaining of animal life, the enjoyment Of

MRS. LUCY T. COLEMAN, of Hamilton, o.,
writes: For many years I suffered from

Mrs. Longmore, to try DR.. Guysott's Yellow
Dock and Sarsaparilla. Having tried so many
things, did so with very little faith. I was
highly pleased to find it just the medicine

Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla would create
such remarkable change as it did in my case.

Our government IS a mighty ager

OUR government Is a mighty agency
for the projection and development OF
its people. Its capability lies
in both its completely and its
simplicity. The reservation of certain
powers to the federal branch and the del
egalion Of other powers to the states is q
most beneficien, disposal Of the will Of
the people. So long as each branch Of
the government remains within the limits
circumscribed by the constitution, all win
move in harmony and for the benefit of
the whole. But is not the federal govern
ment gradually encroaching upon the
rights and powers Of the states? What
authority is there in the constitution for
the appropriation Of federal money for
education? IL fact the education Of the
young has always been the duty Of the
state aud SD considered. The states should
have this power and be held responsible
for il. Whenever the people suffer the
government 10 do for them what they
ought to do themselves, they barter away
for ease that independence which ma;n-
tains free institutions. 1t we're better that
the states accomplish imperfeclly what
the federal government may do with the
utmost precision. Political health is not
maintained by absence of care and fric-
ton. The more directly education and
administration can be brought to the peo.
pie the more interest they will take in
them and the more will they esteem their
privileges. 1t is an alarming indication
thar, after century of prosperity and adj
vancement, the work OF the states in edu-
cation must be supplemented or taken
from them.
