Vital Questions ! !
* the most eminent physician

Ask the most eminent physician
OF any school, what is the best thing in the
world for quieting and allaying all irritation of
the nerves and curing all forms of nervous
complaints, giving natural. chid'i refreshing
sleep always?
And they will tell you unhesitatingly
"Some form of Hopsr'
CHAPTER I
Ask any or all of the most eminent pbysi-
clans:
"What is the best and only remedy that can
be relied on to cure all diseases of the kidneys
and urinary organs; such as Bright's disease,
Diabetes, retention or inability to retain urine,
and all the diseases and ailments peculiar to
Women y
''And they will tell you explicitly and en-
phaticaIly g Buchu."
Ask the same physicians
"Wbat is the most reliable and suTe8t cure
for all liver diseases or dyspepsia, oOnstipa ton,
indigestion, biiiousness. malarial fever, agae-
&C." and they viii tell you:
"ManJrake or Dandelon!'
Hence, when these remedies are combined
with others equally valuable
And compounded into Hop Bitters, such
wonderful and mysterious curative power is de-
veloped which is so varied in its operations
that no disease or i'll health can possibly exist
Or resist its power, and yet it is
Harmless for the most frail woman weah est
invalid or smallest child to use

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
FRENCH PUFFS.

A pint OF sweet milk, SIX ounces oI
-four, four eggs, half tablespoonful OF
salt; scald the milk and pour over the
-four, beat until smooth, whisk the eggs
to a froth, and add to the -four and milk
when sufficiently cool. Have ready a
kettle of boiling lard, and drop one tea
spoonful of the batter at time into the
lard, and fry a light brown; sift white
sugar over them, or eat with sirup.
DESERT.
Make batter as if for waf1es; to one
pint of milk allow two eggs and enough
-four to thicken; one teaspoontul OF bak-
ing powder should be stirred Int the
-four. Fill sufficient number OF tea
cups with this and fruits in layers. Then
set the cups in the steamer and let the
water boil underneath 1t for full hour.
Serve while hot with sugar aud cream.
ANY Jam is nice for this, OF raw apples
chopped.
VEAL OUTLETS A LA MTLANAIRE.
Brown some veal outlets quickly in
hot lard: then take them out of the pan
and thicken the hot lard with -four; stir
until the -four browns; then pour in sui
fcient water to make the gravy the con-
sistency of cream. Fry some finely
minced onion in butter; then add 1t to
the gravy. Put IN the veal outlets and
place around them about six sliced toma-
toes. Season to taste. Simmer gently
about two hours or until the outlets are
tender.
CREAM PUFFS.
Melt half a cup of butter In one cup
of hot water, and, while boiling, beat IN
one cup of -four; then take Oft the stove
and cool; when cool, stir in three eggs,
one at time, without beating; drop on
tins quickly and bake about twenty five
minutes In a moderate oven. For the
cream: Half pint of milk, one egg,
three tablespoons of sugar, two large
tablespoons of flour; boil same as any
mock cream, and flavor with lemon.
When baked, open the side of each puff
and fill with cream.
CoCOANUT PIE.
Open the eyes of a cocoanut with a
pointed knife or gimlet, and pour out
the milk into cup; then break the shell
and take out the meat and CRATE it fine.
Take the same weight of sugar and the
grated nut and stir together; beat four
eggs, the whites and yelks separately,
to s. stiff foam; mix one cup OF cream,
and the milk of the cocoanut with the
sugar and nut, then add the eggs and a
few drops of orange or lemon extract.
Line deep pie-ti with nice crust, fill
them with the custard, and bake care
fully half an hour.
TO COOK EGG PLANT.
One way to cook egg plant is here
given, and can not fail to please the
epIcure: Cut it in slices about an inch
thick, take off the purple rind, let the
slices lie In salt and water two hours,
then steam them until they are so tender
you can pierce them easily with fork,
then take them from the steamer and dip
them IN very fine bread crumbs, or
cracker crumbs, sailed and peppered.
These crumbs must be rolled very fine,
and it is an improvement TO shake them
through a coarse eieve. Fry the slices
Of egg plant in hot lard. If the seeds
are large, after the slices are steamed
you can take a fork and poke the seeds

The State University.

The following we take from
the last issue of the Kosciusko
Messenger: M. G. Campbell,
who has attended the State
University for the past year or
two, is now at home teaching.
His examination showed that he
had made good use Of his time
while ut college. We may say
the same of A. G. Gunter and
9. w. Carter, both of whom at
tended the same institution and
both now teaching in this coun.
Ity. Our observation leads us
to believe that our State Uni.
versity is one Of the best insti-
tutions in the country for a
young man who desires to learn.

Farmars' Wives.

The farmer works from sun till
sun; the farmers wife frequently till
far into the night. Who can com
pute her dreary and incessant toll,
under all sorts of deprivations? 1t
is a toll so excessive as to shrivel
the charms of womanhood, exhaust
the nervous system, bow and stifFen
the frame, weaken the springs fife,
and leave its harsh traces upon ev-
cry faculty and organ. Yet she is
the wife of him whose calling is
first, most necessary, and so most
honorable, of all avocations.
The statistics of the chief luna
tic asylums of this country show
that from farmers wives are found
the largest percentage of those
whose light of reason has been
quenched in terrible and hopeless
darkness. Constant fatigue, mo-
notony, want of society, with its so
cial stimulus and interchange of
thought, the hopelessness of any
change of routine, prove to much
to endure, and the poor tired brain
reels with thoughts of a cherries
past and hopeless future. The
horses and oxen blowing in their
masters field have before them the
of nature; they breath
The free winds of heaven; but her

A farmer came to town last week

A farmer came to town last week
with sadness spread all over his
features. A merchant asked him
about his crop, He said he had
cut his wheat and it was the best
he ever had-it was just prime
His oats were ready to cut, but his
yield would evidently be so heavy
that he would not have storage for
it. They were just lawful" But
the INGREDIENT wanted to know about
the corn. at is just booming
the stalks as big as saplings, and
two end three ears are setting on
each stalk--so if it goes on in this
way corn will be worth nothing"
His hay was so heavy it was diff
cult to cure, and the stacks would
nearly cover the meadow. And his
potatoes were crowding each other
in the hills. "The fact is he
said, ''the crops are all large, and
will be worth nothing. Don't see
how this country is going to stand
it. Everything is going to destruc-
ton. Bad times, and the farmers
may as well quit trying to do any
thing" and he made his way to-
ward saloon to see a man.-Rural

Shade and Change of Pasture
For Sheen.


The tenth census (1SS0) gives
40, l92,074 as the number of sheep
in the United States, exclusive of
spring lambs, yielding an aggregate
of 140,6SI, 75l pounds of wool.
Ohio leads with nearly five millions,
and California stands second, hav-
ing over four million sheep. Texas
is third with about two and half
millions; Michigan ranks fourth,
closely followed in their order by
New Mexico, Pennsylvania, New
York, Missouri, Wisconsin, Indiana,
Oregon, Illinois and Kentucky; all
of which have over a million head
of sheep. The vastness and impor-
lance of the sheep industry is indi-
Gated by the above figures.
A few spreading trees in a pas
ture add to the beauty of the field,
and furnish a shade that is most ac-
ceptable to the flock on a hot sum
mer day. After feeding through
the long morning, the sheep may
gather in the cool shade to rest and
ruminate, until the scorching rays
of noon-tide are replaced by the less
intense ones of early evening. The
stream of pure water near by adds
one of the most essential elements
in well equipped pasture Con
trast the view of this shady
brook with that Of newly-sheared
sheep huddled together in a bare
field, trying in vain to shield each
other from the scorching sun, and
without a drop of water within their
reach
Sheep thrive best with a change
of pasture. If there are two fields
devoted to the flock, it is best to let
the stock feed alternately upon
them, thus giving fresh cropping all
the time. In few days the stock
will be as willing to go in the oppo-
site direction, to find the old pas
ture renewed, and the trees by the
brook side still yielding refreshing
shade. All live stock like change
of diet, but none appreciate it more
than the close-feeding sheep.
If the work of the craftsman and
engraver have the useful effect of
encouraging taste for shady pas
lures, and a change of feeding
ground, their labor will be well
spent. Aside from tho question of
humanity, in itself sufficiently i'm
poTtant to induce US to provide
change, shade and water for the
flock, that of profit is concerned.
Animals will not thrive under con
ditions which their owners find
most intolerable. 1t pays we'll to
make the live stock OF the farm
comfortable.

Importance of Roads,

We are not aware that any est
mate has ever been made of the &C
tual costs of the public roads of the
United States or that the expense
of providing them has ever been
attempted by any bureau of Stats
tics, but we make the rough est
mate that they have cost at least
seven hundred million dollars
probably much more-while un-
known millions are annually ex-
pended in attempting to keep them
in repairs. If the money were only
well applied, it would be an expen-
dlture of great profit and economy,
as everything which the farmer
does off his own land is greatly at
fected by their condition. All his
many loads of surplus farm pro-
ducts are drawn over them, and it
makes some difference to him and
horses whether those loads are con-
veyed easily over hard, smooth sur
faces or dragged through mud and
against stones with severe labor to
the team, fatigue to the driver, and
wear and breakage to the wagon.
Every week he and his family,
more or less, go to the village for
errands, or to church
on Sunday, and the good or bad
condition of the road seems to af
feet every fiber, pleasantly or I'M
pleasantly, of their feeling or ner-
voos sensations. On an average,
there is at least twenty miles of
each week for the mem
bers of single family. 1t would
make a difference of five dollars a
week, everything counted, whether
This teaming and travelling is one
over nice, comfortable road, or
through mud holes, sloughs, ruts,
md unbridged streams, or against
stones. Five dollars a week
amounts to $3.50 year, a snug lit
lie sum to tax the farmer with; and
when this sum is multiplied by at
east five million owners or drivers
# horses, carriages, wagons, heavy
cams, etc, the aggregate cost
would be something over a billion
Iollars! Does any one say this
s:too large an estimate9 Then
rOceed IN detail and show in what
but do not blindly and
ynorantly say it is wrong without
areful examination. Suppose,
owever, we admit that it is double
he reality, is not the six millions
7ery year, expended directly or in
