Cured the other day in the Office of a
Connecticut paper.
One Friday afternoon, Just after the
weekly paper had been published, and
the editor was leisurely cutting the
pages OF a magazine, the door opened,
and large, pompous farmer entered.
The editor, recognizing him as sub.
scriber, invited him to take chair.

GA gentleman named Moore, near this

which had eaten away his nose and his

SO loose that he thought they might at any
time drop out. He has been taking SwIFT's

has been wonderful. It has driven the poi

TO OUR READERS.

The proprietors of ALLcocK's Porous
PLAsTERs and BRANDRETH's PILLS will
publish for the next few weeks in this
paper some of the many cures that these
remedies have effected.
II you are in need Of medicine give them
a trial. They guarantee them to be made
of the purest and best drugs that money
can buy, powerful to cure, yet perfectly
harmless.
ALLcocK's Porous PLASTER is the stand
ard of excellence and like all good things
largely initiated. The public is especially
cautioned against all so-called porous plas-
ters, none of which contain the healing
gums that Allcock's does, but are made
from poor and cheap materials and simply
gotten up to sell on the reputation of the
genuine article.
OPINION OF DIR. MOTT. LATE Gov
ERNMENT CHEMIST, ON ALLCOCK'S
POROUS PLASTER.
My investigation Of ALLcocK's PoRoUs
PLASTER shows it to contain VaEudbEe and
essential Ingredients not present In any
other Plaster. These ingredients are so
perfectly proportioned that the ALLcocK's
Porous PLASTER win not cause BtiSters or
E1cessi0e Irritation, and find it superior
to and more efficient than any other Plas.

Broom corn requires rich soil. It
returns nothing to the land. and is best
grown on mire bottoms, where an an

-Stewed Potatoes: Peel and slice
very thin six good sized potatoes; put
over them just enough water to cover
them, boil until soft and nearly dry;
season with salt, pepper, butter and
parsley.-Ihe Household.
The garden should be thoroughly
prepared before putting in seed. Fine
ness of condition is more essential than
any other object. Garden seeds will
not terminate uniformly unless the soil
is in proper form for their reception. -
Troy Times.
1t is an old plan for causing the eve
to recognize the lamb, to shut the two
up together, and sprinkle bran and salt
on the lamb. The mother will lick the
bran and salt, and soon own her lamb,
and will not be made wild by being
caught and forced.
Garden peppers are of great value
to fowls, especially during the winter
and spring. They are excellent to mix
with chopped meat, potatoes and roots,
or to add to dough made of Indian
meal. They are easily raised, and at
least bushel should be harvested for
each hundred of fowls. - Chicago Times.
A rich gravy for fowl can be made
in this way: Cut small one pound of
gravy beef, slice two onions and put
them in stew-pan with quart of
water, some whole black pepper,
small carrot and bunch of sweet herbs.
Simmer till reduced to one pint;
strain the gravy and pour into another
stew-pan upon two ounces of butter
Drowned with two tablespoonfuls of
flour; stir and boil up.-Bostos Globe.
The editor of the Atlanta Constitat-
ton writes: when good tea is secured
you should use one full teaspoonful for

it boils put the required quantity of tea
in the teapot and pour on the boiling
water, allowing it to stand about fifteen
Then pour into a fine China
teapot to serve at the table. Never
make the tea in anything but china

Milk Soup: Take four potatoes, two
onions, four pints boiling water, one
pint of milk, two ounces Of butter, two
large tablespoonful sage or crushed
tapioca. If sage is used, soak one hour
in a little water. Put onions, potatoes,
butter, salt and pepper in a stew-pot
with the water. Boil about one hour

To the Citizens of the Territory.

PHOENIX, A. T., April %, 1884.
DEAR SIR: In accordance with a
resolution, passed at a meeting of
the citizens of Phoenix, on the 22nd
of April, we extend to you an
earnest invitation to be present at
meeting to be held in this city on
Saturday, Nay 10Th, at o'clock p.
M, for the purpose of effecting the
necessary arrangements for the ore
PanizatiOn of Territorial Fair
Association.
You will readily appreciate the
benefits that will accrue to our Sec
ton through the inst1tu ion of an
association, having for lis object the
holding of annual fairs. Not only
will it afford brief season of re-
creation and amusement 10 us all,
but will be conducive to our welfare
in inspiring healthful competitit n
in the cultivation of our, fields, or
chards ard vineyards; in the pro-
our artisans, etc. The centrality of
Phoenix, the many admitted ad-
vantages which she presents in re-
spGct to agriculture, horticulture and
viticulture, and equI>distance to the
heavy mineral producing sections OF
the Territory, make it apparent that
the proposed enterprise can be sue
cessfully inauguraled at once-be>
fore other communities may take
steps in the same direction.
These annual exhibits will no
doubt attract exhibitors and visitors
from all parts of the Territory, as
well rs persons from abroad, on
missions of pleasure and business.
Displays which will do credit can,
not bul prove of more benefit in set>
ting forward our present resources
and the future possibilities OF the
valley than any other method that
could be adopted. In doing this
every industrial interest is enhanced
and our lands made To command
consideration pFoportionate to their
intrinsic worth.
Trusting that you will not fail to
be present and contribute the value
of your counsel and the weight of
your Influence to the worthy work
proposed, we are
Respectfully Yours,
FRANK Cox,
P K. HICKEY,
ISRAEL MILLER,
Committee.
