How Some Lively Young People
Cured u HyDOchOndriac.

From the Cleveland Ohio Leader.
A Cleveland gentleman, who is fond
of a story, re ated to Leader reporter,
a few days ago, an instance ofhypochon.
dria which came under his no
tice when he was considerably
younger than at the present
time. His narrative was something like
this: "Whsn l was boy there lived
near our house, in part of Cleveland
that was then almost in the woods, q
maiden lady, who was IN very poor
health. In girlhood she was not strong,
and as years advanced she imagined her
self growing more and more delicate, till
at last she took to her bed, where she
of death. Her nerves were delicate, and
in my school days the schoolmaster used
to warn us urchins to keep quiet when
going by her house, as we might disturb
her if any noise was made. My youth
and boyhood passed, and with the com
ing of manhood discovered that young
sister of the invalid was very pretty
girl, and when. after coming home from
church or singing school with her, an
invitation to come in was given, it was
always accepted. The short and awk-
ward visits made at first soon gave place
to the old-fashioned sitting up. One even
ing several of the young people came in,
and the talk and laughter grew hilari-
Gus. 1t was checked instantly by heavy
thump on the floor in the room directly
overhead, where the sick woman lay.
One warning wa, enough, but the fire.
qnency of the same signal afterward
tended to lessen our respect for it. 1t
seems that she kept big cane standing
at the side of her bed, and by rapping
with it indicated her wants-and her dis
pleasure. Finally, one night, after being
cautioned several times in the usual man
ner without effect, the parior floor opened
suddenly upon the assembled party, and
the bed ridden woman stood before our
eyes, holding the awful cane in hand.
1t was the first time she had moved in
20 years. Her entrance was so sudden
that she was able to give two or three
singing blows to those sitting nearest
her before an escape could be made.
In moment shout or lau Inter went
up, and the supposed invalid was not
slow in finding that she was the cause.
Her mother and sister fixed her up with
suitable clothes, and she spent the re-
mainder of the evening down stairs and
the day following she went about the
family homework. Ididn't marry the cir
whom l courted under such adverse
circumstances. She in time married and
went to Massachusetts, and it was only
last We that I saw the once invalid
woman walking as briskly about as
any. person of 81 could be expected
to do. F8 %a

IS given by using Browns
IRON B1rrERs. In the
Winter it strengthens and
warns the system; in the
1pring it enriches the blood
and conquers disease; in the
hummer it gives tone to the

IN the Fall it enables the

In no way can disease be
so surely prevented as by
keeping the system in per-

Yesterday we were shown bunch of
grapes which were grown and ripened
in paper bag without ray of sunlight.
Mr.. Eugene II. Burr, secretary of the
Russell manufacturing company. Middle
ton, in order to preserve his grapes
from the ravages of rose-bugs, envoloped
several hundred punches, when the
grapes were only the size of pin-heads,
in paper bags and trusted to chance for
the growing and ripening. The exper-
iment worked to charm, the grapes
ripened perfectly, and they were entire
ly free from dirt or dust. He liked the
result so well he will follow the same
plan next year, rose-bugs or no rose
bugs.

Slow But Sure,

New York Tribune.
The saying that farming is slow bust
ness may as well be accepted, in COM
parison with the stock-watering POSSIBLE
tiles of the cities. and that it is sure is
undoubtedly true, when contrasted with
the successful ventures of speculation or
the investments in commerce or manu-
features. We are repeatedly told that it
is the destiny Of at least nineteen in
every twenty in mercantile life to fail at
least once. However, it is believed in
many cases to be withal a sweet and pro-
titable destiny. There are few absolute
failures among farmers; not that ''crop
failures" are unknown, FOR they seem to
occur almost annually, and are naturally
expected, and survived with wonderful
ease. Thousands of farmers can figure
out an absolute loss in the business, and
at best can make 2 per cent. interest the
maximum of profit, yet the fact remains
that they occupy comfortable houses,
entertain friends, drive a span to town,
raise and educate hildren, and Increase
gradually their taxable realty. Not that

ic, owns his own house, or amasses a
little competency.
With nearly 5000, 900 getting their liv-
ing from the land of the 10000, 900 Of
workers in the United States, a large
proportion on their own acres, is it rea-
sonable to compare the mass witnthe Sc
lect few who control our commerce or
operate large factories? There are lead
ing spirits, great organizers, in agricul-
ture as well as in trade and manufac-
ture, yet the multitude in these latter
calings are laborers, toilers in crowded
quarters day by day, and subject to the
sewer gas; and other impure air Of the
cities by night, with whose condition
even farm laborers would not be salts
fed. But it is not proper to argue this
vexed question over again. Is agricul-
ture safe business? Yes, decidedly.
BY the sweat of his brow the farmer
does make his bread. The frosts bite,
the winds wither, the sun scorches, the
waters drown, the insects devour, and
mildews mysteriously blight. The SOW:
er he will gather twenty or a hundred
fold; he fertilizes, and secures the larg-
er crop from some unmanured surface;
he expects leanness, and getsa fat yield;
he feels sure of a large reward, and reaps

Messrs. Lockridge 4 Bridges, of Indi-

Apple butter is made as follows: Pared
and sliced apples are stewed in fresh
sweet cider until the cider is boiled down
one-half; the apple is then of the consist
ence ola thick paste. No sugar is added,
as the cider is sufficiently sweet from the
concentration of its sugar. If spice is
d sired for flavoring, that may be finely
ground and added to the apples during
the cooking.
A Texas paper describes an 5000 acre
rancho III that state entirely devoted to

The breeding stock consists of seven

over the pralries like sheep, and are de-
scribed as very gentle.
The most useful fertilizer for onions is

considerable sulphur, of which there is
from 10 to % pounds IN 100 pounds of
the phosphate. This sulphuric acid is
combined with about half or two-thirds
as much lime in the form of plaster, and,
as onions contain good deal of sulphur,
it is no doubt the sulphuric acid in the
phosphate that helps them as much as
the phosphoric acid in it.
