double purpose-that of annullng the
poisonous effect of the sewer gas and at

pungent odor arising therefrom, while
sewer gas alone, almost odorless, per-
meates the building, carrying sickness

No INDUCEMENT.-A land agent wanted
a Kentucky farmer to emigrate to Dakota,
as he was not making his living in the old
/ Commonwealth. "What inducements do
you offer" asked the farmer. "We have
the richest lands, the finest wheat, the best
water, the fattest stock and the biggest
farms in the world" "Yes," doubtingly
interrupted the farmer. "Why, man, on
one of those big farms they pillow furrow
five miles long" "Whatw "They pillow a
furrow five miles long" "That ends it,
stranger. Don't talk Dakota to me! It's
all can do to pillow one of these little fifty
yard burrows here in Kentucky, and if it
was five miles long never would get to
the end of it. Gee, whoa, Buck, git up
therew and he started across the patch,

HOMO TO WHOM HONOR Is DUE.

EDITORS 4EPUBLICAN: During my recent
vlslt TO Uppr Sandusky, so many inquiries
were made slative to what medicine, or
course OF tratment had brought such a
marked chang in my system, feel it to
be due to tue roprietors and to the public
to state that Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure accomplished for me what 9TH
er medicines aid physicians had failed to
do. The malaril poison which had worked
Its way so thoroughly through my system
during my five tears residence in Florida
had brought melo the verge of the grave,
ana physicians had pronounced my case
lncurable; but tht is not to be wondered
at, as 1t was undoubtedly one of the worst
on record. Hougl Brothers, of your city,
called my attention to the medicine re-
ferred to, and induced me to try a few bot
ties. SO marked was the change after four
weeks trial that | continued it's use, and
now, after three months, the cure is COM
plete. This is not written for the benefit of
Warner d Co., but for the public, and espe-
clally for any person troubled with ma
larial or bilious attacks
Such is the statement I made, without
solicitation, after my recovery, and such l
stand by at the present moment. l am con-
WINGED that Warmers Safe Cure is all it is
claimed to be, and as such deserves the
great favor it has received. A remedy
which can cure the severest case of tropical
malaria of five years. standing certainly
can not fail to cure those minor malarial
troubles which are so prevalent and yet so
serious. ALFRED DAY,

Nice Notions About st: b es.

Let your stable be well drained and
sufficiently lighted. The vapors from
a damp, putrid floor and the sudden
change from darkness to light, will
almost to certainty cause blindness.
Let the floor of the stall be quite flat
and level. Standing on sloping place
is very painful and causes lameness by
straining the ligaments and membranes.
1t also produces grease and sore heels.
Every stall should be at least six feet
wide and nine feet long. This will en-
able the horse to turn round without
bruisiDg himself, and to lie down and
stretch himself with comfort. Let the
stalls be separated by partitions, not by
bars. They prevent the horses from
fighting and kicking each other. Let
proper openings be made just under the
ceiling, to permit the hot, foul air to
escape, and proper openings at the bot
tom of the wall to admit fresh air. I'M
pure and confined air will cause broken
wind. The fresh air should enter
through a number of small holes, rather
than large hole, such as an open win
dow. That prevents draughts, which
cause chills and coughs. The tempera-
ture of stable should be that of a sit
ting-room or parlor; not over seventy
degrees in summer, nor under forty-hve
degrees in winter. Hot, close or foul
stables will bring on CHAMBERS or infiam-
nation, while very cold or damp one
may cause anincurable cough or disease
of the lungs. Do not keep the hay oveI
the Manager. The steam and breath Of
the animal make it both unpleasant and
unwholesome. If the hay must be KEEP
over the horse the ceiling between
should be of plaster. This will in some
measure prevent vapors from passing
up to the food. Have no opening into
the manger from the hay-loft. Dust il
very often thrown into the horses eyes
when fed in this way, and thus blind
ness is begun. The breath ascends di
rectly to the food through the opening
which, at the same time, pours a con
tinual draught down on the horse:

solved the Problem.

A man from North Billerlca, M,ss.,
bought u piece Of Wild land near Lake
Hiclkpochee because of wonderful natu-
raj curiosity which the land agent pointed
out to him. 1t was palmetto log wedged
into the branches Of water oak twenty
feet from the ground. The purchaser
moved upon the place, end spent his tune
between meals and grubbing roots in won.
dcring at the log IN the tree. One day
last week he solved the problem. It
rained as 1t rams only in the Everglades,
turning a flood Of water from the saw
grass region down into Lake Hickpochee,
and his nelghbors heard him shouting
three miles away He haIlooed all night
long, and the next morning they went over
IN boat and brought him out. He was
sitting in the top Of the tree with his feet
IN the water, and, with long pole, was
keeping off floating palmetto logs that
were cndangerlng his seat by wedging
themselves IN among the branches, The
land agent thinks he eau sell the place for
HIM at profit when the water goes down,
the h))d does not ruin tie curiosity.
