Ginger Pudding: Five eggs, two cups

Very young ducklings are tender
at first, and should be neither allowed
to 90 into cold water nor be exposed to
chilling winds, while they are under
twenty days old. Such exposures cause
cramps, and they often die suddenly
from these assaults. - Chicago Journal.
The american Agriculturist is
friendly to the crow. 1t says: "Don't
kill the crows. A few years ago we had
a chance to watch the opei ations of an
assemblage of crows on grub-infested
lawn. Their skill in finding and dis
lodging the grub should have been wit
messed by all opponents of the crow"
The several kinds of pond lilies can
be easily grown in almost any pond in

pleasure, inexpensive and lasting

Kerosene Oil may be used for. de-
stroying insects on plants by taking a
tablespoonful of oil and mixing it with
half cupful of milk and then diluting
the mixture with two gallons Of water.
Apply the liquid with a syringe, and
afterward rinse with clear water. This

we have never heard Of its injuring the
most delicate plants when used as here

When mixed with hay and other
dry feed, parsnips are valuable for
horses and cows, the feeding being
commenced gradually, as with roots
generally. They possess an important
advantage over other roots, in that the
crop may be safely left in the ground
all winter, as freezing does not injure
them when they thaw out in the ground,
and thus the labor of late autumn har-
vesting is avoided-N Y. Post.
"A supply of roots for stock feeding
purposes next winter should be taken
into consideration now. 1t is not nee
essary to vary the food of cattle as much
as that intended for man, but reason
and experience show that change is
very desirable The bulk of our stock
are kept on a dry feed during winters,
consisting of hay, corn stalks or straw,
with occasionally little grain. Every
animal tires of the same kind of food if
fed for long time. Roots furnish the
best substance for a change. In all
parts of the country some kind of roots
can be raised for stock to good advan-

How Torn Currency is Redeemed.

1t is learned at the Treasury Depart
ment that, owing to the failure of Con-
gress to make an appropriation for the
payment of express charges on United
States notes sent here eforredemption, the
fund fos that purpose will be exhausted
III the end of the present fiscal wear
This was probably due to carelessness;
but, whatever the cause, it will result
i'll great deal of ANNOYANCE. "A cor
respondent had a conversations with
Treasurer Wyman on the subject the
other day. and tlse Treasurer said that
few people had any idea of the large
amount of dirty and ragged currency
ahoat throughout the country. The
failure of this /, appropriation ~would
necessarily cause "a decrease in the
amount sent in for redemption..S for
after July the banks would have to
pay the express charges on all~such
packages, as well as on all packages of
good notes sent in exchange for them.
:'Of course" continued Mr.. Wyman,
this is a small item, vet the tendency
will be to keep the notes in circulation
. as long as possible, and the currency
will be visibly dirtier and more ragged
during the coming year than hereto
fore, and especially will that be the
case in the West and South, where the
long distance and high express charges

Yes. The further away the point
from which it comes, the worse the con-

that reason they keep putting them out

Keeping Cider Sweet.

If we know of any process for
keeping soured cider sweet, we
should certainly lock such a secret
in our own hearts, for of all the in
sidious compounds for transform
ing men into brutes and stupid,
sotted demons, soured sweet cider
is the worst. The man who habit
ually gets intoxicated through the
use of soured sweet cider, tassens
upon himself the most miserable
and hopeless form of inehriety
known to medical men; and in or
der to prevent the development of
such disease, with all its fatal con-
sequences, we propose the following
recipe for keeping cider sweet; Let
it remain in the apples. If tenn
perance people will follow this re-
cipe, it will prevent some of the
bad influences and demoralizing
effects of soured sweet cider. We
have known cases where the ruin
wrought by few barrels or few
cisterns of soured sweet cider kept
among the farmers, was greater if
possible, than would have been
wrought by an open bar in their
midst There are communities
where farmers build cider cisterns
and pour into them ten, fifteen or
twenty barrels of soured sweet cid
er, drugged to prevent acetious fer
mentation, then put pump in
them, and from these reservoirs of
inhaming poison deal out the ele-
ments of disease and demoraliza-
ton to the community, and thus
defy all law and gospel. This has
occurred in towns where no license
was the voice of the people for
years in succession, and the result
has been harvest of drunkards
and desolated homes, and all the
crimes and outrages that follow in
the train of such debauchery Let
all temperance people cease daily
ing with this fatal tempter There
must be nothing hidden in our
tents if we expect to gain the vic
tory. Ed.

Moral Courage in Daily Life.

Have the courage to discharge a
debt while you have the money in
your pocket.
Have the courage to do without
that which you do not need, how
ever much your eyes may covet it.
Have the courage to speak to a
friend in seedy coat, even tho
you are in company with rich
one, and richly attired.
Have the courage to speak your
mind when it is necessary that you
should do so, and hold your tongue
when it is prudent that you should
do so.
Have the courage to own that
you are poor, and thus disarm pow
erty of it's sting.
Have the courage to tell a man
why you will not loan him your
money.
Have the courage 10 cut the most
agreeable acquaintance you have
when you are convinced that he
lacks principle-a friend should
bear with friends infrmities, but
not with his vices.
Have the courage to show your
respect for honesty in whatever
guise it appears, and your con-
tempt for dishonesty and duplicity
by whomsoever exhibited.
Have the courage to wear your
old clothes until you can pay for
new ones.
Have the courage to prefer COM
fort and propriety to fashion in all
things.
Have the courage, In providing
an entertainment for your friends,
not to exceed your means.
Have the courage to acknowl-
edge your ignorance, rather than to
seek for knowledge under false pre-
lenses. -Erchange.

Guardian Wanted.

A man who gays he is not able to
pay for paper ought to 90 at
once to the county court and have
his wife appointed his guardian.
Remember that newspaper is
worth more to family than a

that takes newspaper lives, as it
were, in a house set upon a hill,
from whose windows he can see all
that is going on in the world.
Friend, don't say you are not able
to pay for your paper. Say you
don't like the paper, or declare
that you do not want your children
to learn anything, but don't say
you can't pay-because to say you
can't pay, is to say you are no man,
have no backbone, and ought to be
in the poor house. -Mlthodist Aduo-

What True Women Can Do.

A consistent, brave-hearted, mag
unanimous woman is the noblest
work of God. Here and there,
scattered at painfully wide inter
walls, are few of these women, each
one of whom has little heaven
of her own creating, wherein her
friends are blest. In the car of
progress are many more being
moulded by experience and school
ed by suffering. Bye and bye they
will march to the front and the
world shall wonder at their power.
Then shall true regeneration begin.
The sick shall be healed, and
health shall prevail; homes will
be peaceable, for they will no long
er know master. No portion of
the population of the civilized
community will be ostracised.
Intemperance will abate, so that
RIGHTEOUSNESS shall not stalk
through the world as a raging de-
mon, and different standard of
manhood will be exacted of men.
Then to license men to make or sell
intoxicating liquors as a beverage
to any hu man being will be abhor-
ent to all. All this and more can
and will be accomplished by race
of true women. M. j.

Willing Hearts Make Willing

"What work can the ". c. T. U.

lowing from the Keyser Echo as an
evidence that willing heart will

heart makes a willing hand. We
hope the good people of Keyser
needed the appeal, and that the
good women will go on urging the
people to quit dallying with this
fatal tempter:
