complied with the request and led him
into the parlor, where the lady and gen

introduced to Miss Mary Russell and
the gentleman with her as her father,

A pleox FOR Our Young Folks.

For a few years past our agricultural
newspapers have discussed to the full
est extent the reasons why our boys
should "stick to the farm" The argu-
ments are not Objectionable, but the
prevailing idea that has grown out of
these articles has a tendency to force
rural people to be rural citizens always.
There is no more occasion that a far
mer's son shall be a farmer than there
is that a doctors son shall be a doctor,
or a lawyers son a lawyer. 1t is n of
the most important items in the founda-
ton of a child's life work That its par
ents early ascertain to what labor or
profession IL is naturally inclined.
With many children no taste for special
work is developed until near manhood;
and nothing could be more beneficial
in helping them to decide the great
question than q college education. Bnt
you say II want Henry to have the old
farm, and Mary must settle near us to
cheer our wintry years.
Yes; this would be a fond mothers
ideal, yet it has enough selfishness In it
| often to wreck q child's highest success
and happiness. Give them the college
education-both boys and girls-and
let them feel that not even a parents
love will cheat them of their birthright.
Just as many boys perhaps, will return
to the farm as would stay there under
the strict command: "Stick to the
farm" Then they would be happier
for having decided their avocation for
themselves. A college education is
worth just as much to rural youths as
to city tops and bellies. Farmers daugh-
tiers might easily hold the highest rank
in intelligence and refinement if only the
custom of college lore for rustics were
more prevalent. Debate the question
by the winter fire, and see if some Of
fering from vine, tree or field cannot be
exchanged for sources of fruitful knowl-
edge for those who are now the light OF
home, who are bearing the buds OF
springtime which, under favoring cir
cumstances, will mature beautious flow
ers, and rich. rare fruit. You car be
stow no worthier gift upon their queen
ly womanhood and noble manhood than
a good education-one which will I'll

ness.-A Lady in Rural New Yorker.

FIRST LOVE OF A WARRIOR
The Beautiful Girl who Captured Gen
Hancock's Heart.

The name Of the gallant soldier, Gen.
Winfield Scott Hancock, is familiar to
millions of Americans. But few know
Of the many great hardships which he
labored under before attaining his pres
emit honorable position. He was born
in Montgomery county, Pennsylvania,
Feb. IA, 1894. His father was the own
en- of a well-paying farm there. Unlike
most farmers, Mr.. Hancock made up
his mind to give his son all the benefits
of a good education. At the age OF 3
wears he was sent TO an academy Tor
Young gentlemen IN the neighbrhood.
He remained there until he was III
years of age, when he was graduated
with high honors. His parents then
wished to place him at work in q large
wholesale dry-goods house iii Philadel-
phia. He had different views for him.
self, however, and asked that he might
be permitted to go to West Point to
study for the army.
Mr.. Hancock placed no obstacles IN
the way of his son. He was admitted
to West Point in 1910. He devoted
himself entirely to his books and was
thus enabled to graduate after four
years with a lieutenant's commission
de returned to his fathers home, but
he was Of too active temperament to re-
main long inactive. With q party OF
army men he started out to explore the
great west. Their first stopping place
was st. Louis, where they remained.
Gen. Hancock at the time made it
practice to take a ride On horseback
every morning.
While taking his daily constitutions
through the streets of st. Louis, early
one morning, his attention was ~attractec
by the sight of q handsome young lady
| standing In the window of one Of the
most fashionable houses in the city,
ITn to this time he had remained heart
whole, notwithstanding that numerous
society young ladies were only too eager
to become Mrs. Hancock. But ths
lovely ~countenance at the window gave
him his first heart-futter. Almost In
voluntarily he stopped his charger anf
dotted his hat. The young lady blushet
divinely, waved one fair hand to
ward him in token of farewell, ant
then let the window-curtains fall. III
rode toward his hotel Flushing like
school-boy, thrilled with q new AMI
sweet sensation. After returning to hi
hotel he became so abstracted as to ex

Value Of the Pumpkin.

The most Of u farmers raise pumpkins in
our cornields but generally because they
may be produced there with little trouble and
are considered OF some value as late fall
feed for stock but | do not believe one
farmer IN twenty would raise this crop if
land had 70 be prepared especially for and
devoted entirely to il. The real value Of
the pumpkin is not fully realized, and for
this reason but few get the benefit of us
peculiar properties.
When given 10 cattle it is generally broken
open and given seeds and all, and as a con-
sequence but little if any benefit is derived.
The seeds are powerful diuretie, and the
system Of the animal is as much weakened
bv them as strengthened by the nutrimeRt
Of the meaty part. Without the seeds, the
pumpkin | consider one Of the best feeds we
have as milk, flesh and fat producer. A
COW may be fatted in few weeks time, with
out anything additional being given. either
food or drink, and the beef be good. 1t is
also an excellent Laxative for the horse and if
secured from frost and fed few times dur
ing the winter, it will wonderfully increase
his health, strength and animation.
As feed for swine, it possesses about the
same amount of nutriment in the raw state
as clover; it will increase growth and de-
velopment, and put them in good con-
dition for fatting, o., as We call it, get them
lnto the proper place for finishing off,
WITH corn but for swine, as for all other
animals, the seed should not be given.
Pumpkins boiled with potatoes, sweet ap-
ples. ETC.. and the mess thiekened with corn
meal OF wheat middlIngs, make an excellent
early feed for pork making.
We do not, however, derive all the vir-
tue from this vegetable BY using it as stock
feed. for it may be put to other valuable
uses. and one among the many need not
mention, as all of good tasre know how to
appreciate a good pumpkin pie. Made into

poultice, the pumpkin is one Of the most
valuable remedies for infi1mma,ory com
plants | ever saw used, and We have
record of the worst cases Of inflammation Of
the bowels being cured BY an application Of
it.
The seeds" says DIR. Smith, "in my
travels in Syria, found almost universally
eaten by the people, on account Of their
supposed medical qualities-not because
they are diuretic, but as an antidote against
animaicula which infest the bowels. The,
are sold in the streets as apples and nuts
are here. 1t is medical Fact that persons
have been cured Of tape-worm by the use
Of pumpkin seeds. The outer skin being
removed. the meats are bruised in a mortar
into an oily. pasty mass. 1t Is swallowed
BY the patient after fasting some hours, and
it takes the place Of chyle in the stomach,
and the tape-vorm lets 20 its bold on the
membrane and becomes gorged with this
substance. and in some measure probably
torpid. Then large dose of castor oil is
administered, and Tue worms are elected be-
fore they are able to renew their hold.
The stem Of the pumpkin. when grated
fine and stepped, strained, and the decoc-
iion well sweetened, is very valuable re-
nedy for fatulency or cramp collie.

What An Egg Will Do.


For burns and scalds nothing is more
soothing than the white Of an egg, which
may be poured over the wound. 1t i softer

the contact with the air which gives the ex.
IRENE discomfort experienced from the or
binary accident Of tEis kind, and ANYTHING
that excludes the air and prevents infiapl-
nation, is the thing to be at once APP
piled.
The egg is considered one Of the best Of
remedies for dysentery. Beaten up slightly
with or without sugar, and swallowed at a
gulp, il tends. by its emolient qualities, to
lessen the inflammation of the stomach and
intestines, and by forming transient coat
ing on these organs, to enable nature to re-
sumo her healthful SWAY over diseased
body. Two, or at most three, eggs per day
would be all that is required in ordinary
cases; and since an egg is not merely medi-
cine, but food as WE'LL the lighter the diet
otherwise and the quieter the patient is kept,
the more certain is the recovery.
