For breakfast eat piece of beef or
mutton as large as your hand, with a
slice of White bread twice as large. For
dinner the same amount of meal, or, il
preferred, fish or poultry, with the same
amount f farinaceous or Vegetable food

supper, nothing.
Drink only when greatly annoyed
with thirst; then a mouthful of lemon
aie without sugar.
Take three times a week some form
of bath In which there shall be nm

is best. You must work, either III
walking or some other way, several
hours a day.
You must rise early in the morning
and retire late at night. Much sleep
fattens people.

AGRICULTURE.

CHEAP SaTLTRRs FOR Stock st The
East, as rule, farmers ere supplied
with stables, sheds, ETC., in sufficient
numbers to properly house their stock /;
but in the far West, over the great cat
tie ranges of Kansas, Nebraska and
Wyoming, where cattle are kept in
large numbers, stables and snug sheds
are, for the most part, unknown, and
stock raisers are content to make the
winter as comfortable SIS possible for
their animals with the means aud ma
terials at hand. A popular form OF
shelter In the newer portions Of the
West are sheds of poles rooted over
with straw. Whenever it is practicable
these shelters are located on the east OF
south sides of forest OF hill, In order
that the force OF the winds may be bro
ken SIS much as possible. In the West
ern grazing regions, where natural pro-
itections, such as rayines or groves OF
timber, are not available, shelters are
constructed which afford not only pro-
| tectlon from storms. but feed for the
protected animals. Sometimes these
shelters are OF of great length, ana
made TO curve SO as TO protect iron
northwest and east winds N1he frame-
work Is made of poles set IN the ground
In rows, about sixteen feet apart, and
twelve feet apart In rows. Gross beams
or poles spiked to these TO hold frame

of hay are spread over these framts.

Timely Suggestions aboat rneumonis

This is the time of year when so many
persons fall victims to pneumonia and other
lung diseases. Hence, we call attention to
the following interview with a prominent
physician
What is pneumonia, which prevails at
this season of the year?"
pneumonia is an acute lung disease, and
Is dangerous and common disorder. II
commences with 4 severe chill and fever.
1t Sc ms to be an affection of the lungs. but
1t Is really caused by the blood being i'm
poyerished by the non-remoyal of natural
acids by the liver and kidneys. Pneumo-
MA Is always proof of diseased kidneys and
liver. Indeed, this is true of many other
lung disorders also.
pneumonia is n very dangerous disease
and the patient must be treated with hot
drinks, and the chest be covered with mus
tard pouitices, and then call the best ply
sician." F'
"How would you prevent such liseases?''
"By keeping the skin, liver, bowels and
kidneys in healthful activity. Then the
blood is free from acid poisons and pnen-
monia need not be feared" For This mr.
pose we know of nothing better than DIR.
David kennedy's Favorite Remedy, which
is highly reputed specific for ali liver.
kidney, bowel'and bloud disorders. 1t il
made, we believe, at Rondout, n. Y. sells
for one dollar bottle, and is the best and
surest of all household remedies.
Pneumonia is very common and fatal
and whatever will prevent its ravages is
worthy the highest commendation.-AL
