Great age and q painful disease are sad
combination. Yet Mr.. VIM. westfall, forms
.erly of Rock City, Duchess Co., N. Y, now OF
Washington Hollow in the same county,
came to the office OF DR.. David Kennedy, the
eminent Physician and Surgeon of Rondout,
N. Y, some time since, in a condition to ex-
cite the sympathy OF the most cold-blooded
and hard-hearted person in tho world. We
say he came-he was rather carried to the
Doctors Office, for he was totally helpless,
and bore the weight of so years besides. He
had suffered long from Retention of Urine,
and had all the symptoms of an aggravated
case of calculus formations in the bladder.
The usual Instrumental examination reveal
ed the presence in the bladder of a urinary
calculus of uncommon size. DIR. Kennedy
frankly told him that, owing to his age and
debility, an operation was out of the question
but that he could by the prescription of Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy, together with local
treatment. make him comfortable and leave
him to live out all his days. The outcome
of this was that the patient enjoys good
health to this day. The reason why DIR. Ken
uedy's Favorite Remedy is being extensively
used by our people are as follows: 1t is a
combination of vegetable alternatives. 1t is
pleasant to the taste, adapted to both sexes
and all ages, is effective in affording imme-
diate relief In all cases of kidney troubles,
liver complaint, constipation of the bowels
and arrangements peculiar to women. At
the same time purihes the blood, thus giving
tone and strength to the system debilitated
by disease or age. DR.. Kennedy's Fayorite

The amount of the crop of straw
berries next year, says the Country
Gentleman, will depend much on the
treatment of the bed this year. A
strong growth late in summer and
during the first half of the autumn will
give q good crop next year. Scatter
manure between the rows or about the
stools, and work it into the surface soil
with a steel rake or hoe. if in the
garden, or with horse culture in the
field Keep the runners cut, and fine
growth will be the result.
-Baby's Pie. The awful prevalence
of pie in this country is illustrated by
the remark sent to the DrdsDer by a
grandfather, proud of his grandchild of
three years who is visiting him. En-
throned in her high chair, she waited
at table for the appearance of the des-
sert- The family pie was duly set before
grandma, and baby's eyes were directed
that way, when q small pie made for
her Majesty was slipped before her.
Equal to the occasion her eyes dancing
with delight, she burst out with: '.Oh,
auntie, I'm mamma of this pier'-

"A correspon dent of The Household
says the way to make husk bed is to
put the husks into plenty of water and
spread them on the grass to dry, first
spreading sheets on the grass to keep
away the insects, etc., if possible.
When the husks are dry draw them
through a fax hatchel, or with fork
split them several times to make them
softer. Then fill into a bed tick. Don't
put in enough to be hard. but make a
good, comfortable bed. Have a slit in
the center of the bed tick, and every
day stir the husk up. A button and
button hole in the bed tick will
make all secure, and If you wash or
scald the husks every few years. they
viii keep, and you will have cheap
and comfortable bed.

ToadstoOl Robbed Of its Terrors.

The mushroom Is favorite but sus-
pected article of food. The choice va
rieties are artificially propagated for the
city market, and the danger to which
consumers are exposed of being sup
piled with the poisonous varieties is very
small. But in the country, where, after
a winter rain, every family can gather
its own supply of mushrooms, the fail
ure to distinguish the edible varieties
from the poisonous ones-commonly
called toadstools-is the cause of quite
q mortality, insomuch as many people
entertain q deep-seated but unjust preju-
dice against the whole mushroom
tribe. 1t is not q labor of much diff
Guilty to learn to tell the edible mush-
room from the noxious toadstool, but
too many neglect to learn and rue the
consequences. Indeed, there is famil-
lar joke, of which the point is that the
only way to tell the difference between
o mushroom and o toadstool is to eat il,
when If you die it is toadstool, and IL
You live, q mushroom. There would
have been no occasion for this wit If 1t
had been known to everybody that toad
stools can be prepared in such a way as
to be as wholesome as other kinds Of
mushrooms. This secret is said to have
been known to the ancients in the time
of Pliny, but was afterward lost sight
of. In fact, for 1900 years the eating
of toadstools was one of the lost arts,
but twenty or thirty years ago it was
re-discovered, and q famous French
man, to prove that ''crumpets is whole
some," ate 175 pounds of the most
poisonous mushrooms he could find
not all in one meal, but in the course of
a month. He also fed his family upon
them, and administered large doses to a
committee of investigation appointed by
the authorities of the city of Paris. None
of these persons died from the effects,
and hence it must be admitted that the
rule already mentioned for distinguish
ing between toadstools and mushrooms
is not infallible. But how is the toad
stool prepared so as to be robbed of its
poisonous qualitiesp The process is
to be soaked two hours in either acidu-
lated or salt water; IL in the former,
there must be two or three spoonfuls OF
vinegar to the quart of water; if the
latter, two spoonfuls of gray salt; and
quart of water is enough for pound
of sliced mushrooms. After this soak
ing they are well washed in fresh wa
ter and thrown into cold water, which
is raised to the boiling point, and after
remaining half an hour are taken out
and again washed. 1t is to be noticed
that this preparation does not so much
destroy the poison as transfer it to the
water, and care must be taken not to
use the latter for any other purpose

The great statue of William Penn,
in Fairmount Park, has recently
been sadly defaced by idiots with
a penchant for cutting their name
and initials in public places. The
rear of the figure is defaced to the
greatest extent, but the front has not
escaped, and the sides show signs of
the vandal's knife. Not only are the
initials of the guilty parties carved in
the base, but the limbs, head and even
the face have been scotched and fur
rowed. The initials of several parties
are carved on the cheeks of the figure
in wide deep letters that rob the face of
its designed expression and make it a
ridiculous efigy. The newspapers have
published the names that are carved on
the statue, and four of the guilty par
ties have been arrested. PihftGdeL phid
