OF late it has not been an unusual
sight to see boys and young men from
1t to Is years of age upon our streets
much the worse Of liquor, and to hear
their bacchanalian revels as you pass
along the streets. Every saloon keep
er who furnishes liquor to this class of
persons not only forfeits his local
license TO sell but also violates rigid
State law touching this point of the
traffic. We call the attention of our
officials to these frequent and open
violations, and in the name of human

Tenders be dealt with according to law.

GLAD praise and Thanksgiving. Mrs. A. Says:
"a few months ago was taken seriously Ill and
Obliged to give up my accustomed household du-
Ties, anu receive medical treatment, and grew
worse continually until was confined to my bed,
IN spite OF the doctors prescriptions and tho best
aaVlce that could get. My suferlngs were very
sovere from the excruclating pains In my back,
and my legs were very badly swollen, attended
WIN severe pains. which were supposed to be
cd by the rheumatism. friend OF mine who
called to see me urged me to try Hunts Remedy,
stating that he knew Of the wonderful cures OF
several parties who had taken this medicine, in
cases which seemed very much like mine, except
Ing that they were In much worse condition than
was. consented to try tho Remedy, and begun
to take 1t as directed, and before I had finished
taking one bottle the Improvement In me was
great, and 1t continued constantly, 30 that after
had taken ess than three bottles was able to re-
sumo my household duties and do my work easily,
although had been confined to the bed several
weeks. The swelling Of my limbs has disappeared,
and tho lameness and pains In my back are gone,
all gone For all OF which, under the blessing of
klhu IToV!uence am indebted to Hunts REM

this remedy, which cheorfully recommend to all

DOMESTIC,

NErrLE BEER. Boil good bunch of
nettles, freshly gathered, in two and q
half gallons of water. for fifteen minutes
strain the water from tho nettles, and
add ~ pounds Of loaf or moist sugar
and 2 ounces of cream of tartar; stir
until tho sugar and tartar dissolve.
When just lukewarm add two large
tablcspoonfnls of good brewers yeast,
or ounce of German yeast, mixed
smoothly in a cup with little of the
water first; stir INTO tho rest and leave
it twenty -four hours to ferment, covered
with board or cloth. At the end of
the twe1lty-four hours skim every par
ticle Of yeast and scum off the top, pour
tho beer carefully from the sediment
and bottle it. The corks should bo
sound and soaked in boiling water ten
minutes before being used. 1t is safer
to tie corks down with wire or string.
The beer will be ready to drink in two
days, and forms a cool, pleasant bever-
age. 1t is difficult to define the exact
quantity Of nettles to use, but, guessing
about a hundred big stalks
with tho leaves on, of course-would
mako good bunch. Some people pre-
for using only the tops of the young
nettles, but it makes no appreclable
difference either way

AGRICULTURE.

How LoNa BUTTER WILL KEEP.-A
few years ago wh,le we'll was being
cleaned, half pound of butter was
found in tho byttom as good and sweet
as when first made. How long it had
been there no ono knew. The present
occupant of the premises has been fif-
teen years on tho place, and the pump
beng in constant use there had been no
occasion before to have it cleaned. Tho
butter must have been there all this
time. and how long before IS not known.
The outside was Of u paler color than
that within, but otherwise there WAS no
change.
1t is not unknown to good dairy folks
that butter will keep we'll in cool, pure
spring water, and some have taken adj
vantage of the fact to preserve butter
i'll close vessels under tho surface. But
we think it is not generally known that
it would keep SO long and in actual con-
tact with tho water. 1t might be Of
great value whether this hint about
preserving butter might not be taken
advantage OF, so rs to initiate regular
plan OF preserving butter sweet and
fresh, until markets or other circunl-
stances favor good prices. It is ono of
that at somo seasons prices are ruinous-
jy low. and the usual remeey OF potting
is not very good cure.
The water OF course must be cool and
pure. At high temperature, such as
most water near tho surface reuches,
vegetable organisms grow that would
soon communicate decay to any organic
matter i'll tho water; but there are many
places where n lagoon of tho proper
condition OF pure well-water could ren-
Oily be constructed.
1t may not be out of place hero to re-
mark TINT little hints such as these arc
continually occurring in almost every
ones experience, but only soon to be
forgotten. Yet often if the suggestion
be listened to and the thread followed
up, one might get OH tho track OF some
good idea that would rapidly make a
fortune. We think that new inventions
require much study; bnt tho truth IS,
most OF our discoveries have been by
accident.
