Airing the Beds.

1t must be a false idea of neatness which demands that beds should be made soon after vacated. Let it be remembered that more than three. fitths of the sohds and liquids taken into the stomach should pass of through the pores of the skin-seven millions in number that this escape is most rapid during the night while warm in bed. At least one half oi the waste and putrid matter from twenty to thirty ounces Tn the night-must become more or less tangled in the bedding, of course soiling it, and part of this may be- come reabsorbed by the skin if it is allowed Co come in contact with it the next night, as it must if the bed ding is not exposed for q few hours in the light. We may well initiate the Dutch example of placing such bedding on two chairs near the win dow in the sunlight, or in the win
 dow, that the best purifier known the light Of the sun--may dissipate their impurities, or neutralize them. At least three hours on the average, is as short exposure as is compatible with neatness.-Dixie Farmer.

AnImpolIte Habit.

Some people do not appear to be aware of the fact that il is exceed ingly rude to converse in company, on subjects or about things of which there is one person present who knows nothing. They may become deeply interested among themselves and the time glides away very pleas antly, but this one pesron is left en- tirely out in the celd, She or he is not at all interested in all theIr talk ing, and not being familiar with the topic, cannot take part ia the con
 versation. Everybody should guard very carefully against such impolite- ness, and when it IS discovered that the topic advanced is not familiar to all present, it should be banished at once: or, if it is something that can be easily introduced, then the ignorant one should be acquainted with all the facts. s.--"Athalia JaighP in the Southern World.

More Nice than Wise.

The lady who was great sufferer for years from Itching Piles, and would not ask the druggist for box of Swayne's Ointment, through fear that he might suspect that she had the old-fashioned Itch, certainly was more nice than wise. It is no disgrace to have the Itch--but itis anything but nice to harbor It, and give it to the neighbors. Swayne's Ointment effectually removes all Eruptions of the Skin, leaving it clear as lily. Do not be without it in your family. Just as sensible to throw away your axe and saw as to go without this use ful preparation. ai

Feeding the Herd

The business of feeding his herd every farmer must learn for himself with due regard to thrift and econo. my. Animals in constantly good condition need less than those that are not; and of this the farmer must judge, remembering that good shel- ter in winter IS as important as good food. 1t is poor economy to let COW get into poor condition, either in the Spring or Autumn. In feeding for the daIry have found that the best winter feed IS good hay, with a sup ply morning and evening ofcorn fod- der chopped and mixed with fine feed, and corn meal saturated with hot water, and allowed to stand twelve hours. Prepare the morning feed in the evening and the evening feed in the morning, always covering carefully the box in which the feed is mixed. have fed many roots and all varieties but not with that benefit winch l expected. except in the health of the cows. Turnips and mangolds impart flavor to the but ter; carrots, which are expensive to cultivate, will only impart color without increasing the quantity Midland Farmer.

Sunlrt Rooms. !.

No article of furniture should be put in a room that will not stand
 sunlight, for every room in dwell | ling should have the windows so ar ranged that some time during the
 day a flood of sunlight will force it.
 self into the apartment, The impor-
 tallce of admitting the light of the
 sun freely to all parts of our dwell
 ling cannot be too highly estimated.
 Indeed, perfect health is nearly as
 dependent on pure sunlight as 1t is
 on pure air. Sunlight should never
 become uncomfortable to the eyes.
 And walks should be in bright sun
 light, so that the eyes are protected
 by veil or parasol when inconveni- ently intense. A sun bath is of more
 i::::ss i::s Issso ou ii preserving healthful condition of the body than IS gener- ally understood. It costs nothing, and that IS misfortune, for people are deluded with the Idea that those things only can be good or useful
 which costs money. But remember that pure water, fresh air and sunlit homes, kept free from dampness, will secure you from many heavy bills of the doctors, and give you health and vigor which no money can procure. It is well established fact that peo- pie who live much in the sun are us- ually stronger and more healthy than those whose occupation deprive them of sunlight. And certainly there is nothing strange In the result, since the same law applies with equal force to nearly every animate thing in nature. It is quite easy to ar range an isolated dwelling so that ev- cry room Tn it may be flooded with sunlight some time in the day, and it is possible that many town houses could be so built as to admit more light than they now recieve.-Mid- land Farmer.

 "De ole man Saunders an his wifi
 var ober Co see me las nite,r said
 Brother Gardner, as q hush fell upon the multitude. sI reckon dey didn', feel 'zactly easy in deir minds. Some
 body in de church had bin tellin'
 cm dat it was an awful sin to dance. When dey axed my advice on de subjeck l answered 'em same as I have answered all others. A religun which won't let man walk frew a quadrille to de soun' of musick am weak somewhar'. A rellgun which rolls of a pusson's shoulders de mint he begins to laugh or sing or Kick up his heels won't take him to de sort of Heaben I want to go to.
 An when de ole man axed me if playin' keerds vas gwine to consign his.soul 10 aperdfshun had de same answer dat l gave you las' var. I wouldn't advise any of YOU to take a pack of keerds in your coat tail pock ct an sot out te win all de beer you could drink, an I wouldn't advise a lady to call de hostler in front de ban to try an beat him out of his months wages; but when I am told dat religun forbids me to sot down in my own house and play a game of euchre wid my old woman or a nay bur, mus look upon it as sort of lower-deck ideah.
 
 "When de ole man axed me if I thought he could go to de theater an squeeze into Heaben too, had de same answer 1 shall allus have. A Christian who can't sot frew play widout feelin' Satan tuggin at his coat-talls had better lock hisself up in a bank vault an forsit de eombi- nashun. l take de ole woman an sail down to dc theater bout twice a month, an 1 can't reckolect that our guilty consciences have kep: us awake or made us ashamed to walk into church nex' Sunday.
 'l want a religun, my friends, dat kin stan temptashun. I want one dat kin meet Satan at de doah of a circus an knock him colder dan wedge. 1 want one dat will let me play euchre an yet keep me from cheatln'. l want one dat will go wid me to the theater an injoy what am good an condemn what am bad. I want religun widout any dyspepsia or fiber complaint Tn it. lift am de sort of a religun dat dance am gwine to peel off want to know it in time to look fur kind dat will stick to me frew thick an thin. A pusson who am afeard dat de mint he begins to smile his religun will begin to crack like new varnish must be in an uncomfortable state of mind. Let me be tempted. If my religun am strong huff to resist I shall have de glory of victory. If it am not, let me ax fur forgiveness an tighten up de bolts an try again. Be good. Respect de church. Reverence true Christianity an foller de teachin's of de good book, but be keerful how you clothe yourselves in armor, dat will be shlrered by de sounds of fiddle an fall to de ground at de sight of circus perceshun. Let us now assault de reg'lar order of biz ness.s

WOMAN.
HOPE FoR SUFFERING WOMAN!


 SOMETHING NEW UNDER THE SUN.
 By reason of her peculiar relations, and her peculiar ailments, woman has been compelled to suffer, not only her own ills, but those arising from the want of wledge, or of consideration on the part of those with whom she stands connected in the social organi- zation. The frequent and distressing irregularities peculiar to her sex have thus been aggravated to degree which no language can express. In the man. sions of the rich and the hovel of the poor alike, woman has been the patient victim of ills unknown to man, and which none but she could endure--and without remedy. But now the hour of her redemption has come. She need not suffer longer, when she can find re- lief in Dr. J. Bradfield's Female Regu- lator, "Woman's Best Friend" Pre- pared by Dr. J. Bradfield, Atlanta, Ca. Price: trial size, 75o; large size, Sl.50. For sale by all druggists.
