ImpecuniOus Great Men.

A considerable number of public men
have received testimonials from their
friends. Daniel Webster was rendered
and received for many years the earnings
of 100000, which was put at inter-
est for his benefit by his friends in
and about Boston. Had not this pro-
vision of So, 900 year been made Web
ster would have retired from the Senate,
for he declared he would not give his
life to his country for eight dollars per
day. ''Tom" Corwin had his debts paid
once by his friends. He never laid up
anything while holding Federal offices
He retired from the Office of secretary of
the treasury comparatively poor. The
mortgage on Corwin's homestead was
once taken up by his political friends.
Henry Clay had the same service rem
dered him ON the part of his political
friends. He had been for whole gen.
Grafton in Congress. He sometimes
lived beyond his means. He was hos
pitable and even generous. He had
little tact in managing his private affairs.
His homestead at Ashland was mortgaged
and would probably have been foreclosed
had not his Wing friends, just after his
defeat for the presidency in 1914, stepped
in and privately cancelled the mortgage.
Thomas Benton was thirty years in Con-
gress. Yet in all that time he never be-
came rich, nor did he improve any of
the opportunities for making money while
holding Federal office.-San Francisco

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Eerdln- for Ecef.

The venerable john johnson, near &C.
neva, n. Y, was a conspicuous instance
of economical, systematic and successful
feeding Being a Scotchman and CONVEX
SAINT with good farming in his native land,
he placed high value upon the manure
made from fattenirg cattle to enable him
to raise large crops and an abundance OF
fodder. His principal crop was wheat,
but on a heavy soil he often raised from
sevcnty-five to eighty bushels of corn per
acre, and made his fodder of corn stalks
and straw; but at times. he states, he
Gsed forty-fve tons of oilcake in year.
When he pat up lot of three-year-old
steers to feed he began with two pounds
of oil cake, and then to five pounds of
corn meal, and this was increased gradu-
ally to four pounds of cake and eight to
ten pounds of corn meal. He also avoided
he too common practice of feeding sin
gle food, however good it may be in it
self. He gives hay once day, and some
times bran and pea meal as change.
This system he has followed for more than
forty years and has found that by it he
could put upon a grade short horn steer
three pounds Of flesh per day for period
Of $50 DAYS.

A Cure for Diphtheria,

A correspondent of the BdIt5n1Ored71
writes in the following confident strain:
The following is said to be an almost Ger.
tain cure for that terrible scourge, "diph-
theria.' If it should save some dear
child or even one of larger growth and
more mature years, l shall be more than
compensated for the little trouble to
which have been subjected in prepar-
ing it for the columns of your journal:
Should you or any of your family be
attacked with diphtheria, be not alarmed,
as it is easily and speedily cured without
doctor. When it was raging in Eng
land, accompanied Doctor Field on his
rounds to witness the so called "wonder-
full cures" he performed, while the pa
tients of others were dropping on all
sides. The remedy to be rapid must be
simple. All he took with him was pow
der of sulphur and a quill, and with these
he cured every patient without exception.
He put spoonful of flower of brim-
stone into wine glass full of water.
and stirred it with his finger instead
Of a spoon, as the sulphur does
not readily amalgamate with
water When the sulphur mixed he
gave it as gargle, and in ten minutes
the patient was out of danger. Birthstone
kills every specie of fungus in man, beast,
and plant in few minutes. In extreme
cases, in which he had been called just in
the nick of time, when the fungus was
too nearly closed to allow the gargling,
he blew the sulphur through a quill into
the throat, and after the fungus had
shrank to allow of it, then the gargling.
He never lost patient of diphtheria. If
a patient c1nnot gargle, take live coal,
put it on shovel and sprinkle spoonful
or two of flour of birthstone at a time upon
it, let the sufferer inhale it, and the fun
gus will Gle. If plea 'llly used the
whole room may be filled to suffo-
cation; the patient can walk about in it,
inhaling the fumes, with doors and win
dows shut. The mode of fumigating a
room with sulphur has often cured most
violent attacks of colds in the head
chest, etc, at any time, and is recon-
mended in cases of consumption and asth-
ma -

Some Fashions in Names.

A New York letter to the Cleveland
Herald says: 1t would seem that fash
ions in signing ones name would be SUI
perfluous; that if one had name, that
was the thing to sign, that and nothing
but that. But alas ones simple name
is not sufficient. Some time ago certain
young men of social aspirations started
the fashion of representing their first
names merely by an initial letter, while
the middle names, often improved upon
or invented for the purpose, were spelled
out in full. The novelty Of this has
worn off somewhat, and we are not un-
duly impressed by card bearing the
name of 81. Fortescue Browne" or rs.
de Smythe Jones'" But now that women
have come to using the same fashion we
are little surprised. That it is not
simply ripple upon the sea of fashion
is shown in the fact that several wedding
invitations have gone out with the BRIDES
name similarly engraved, both in this
city and Philadelphia.
A later custom than this is being in
troduced at present, that of signing the
entire name in full, and also that of join
| ing two names as a surname. The first
comes from England, from whence we
are getting so many of our fashions now
adays. English women or men sign
Mary Elizabeth Jones, or Herbert Lionel
Brown, as a mere matter of course, and if
he or she were given as many more
names, would use them all, for, why are
names given them if not for use And
do not three or four names look more i'm
portant than one with initials ?
The second, that of joining two names
as a surname, comes from France, where
it is customary to use the name of the
wife as we'll as the husband. There is
much more reason for this latter custom
than the former. This usage makes it an
easy matter to give woman her proper
place among her own or her husband s
family. Mrs. Jones is very indefinite.
There are so many Mrs. Joneses that we
can not tell, unless we know her well,
which Mrs. Jones it is we know. But
Mrs. John Hamilton Jones tells us at once
that Miss Hamilton married Mr.. John
Jones, and that Mr.. John Jones married
one Of the Hamilton girls.
In the case of widow who has mar
ried again it is quite customary to see
cards engraved, 'Mrs. J. Frances Eng
lish," Frances being the first husbands
name. This custom obtains more gen.
orally among women who have attained
something of a reputation, socially, ar
tistically, or otherwise, which they do
not wish to lose by hiding their identity
under a new name.

kiss that he pressed upon them, and owe.
all there came the subtle odor OF the
flowers that surrounded them-ftincense
indeed of the altar of pure and passion
less love.
II know you love me, darling" he
said, drawing her close to his sky-blue
suspender and bending tenderly above
the coronal of golden hair that her
father had agreed to pay for the first of
the month. 81 know it full well, and it
was wrong of me-very wrong-to cause
you pain. Am forgivenp
For answer she twined her white,
cleaning arms about his neck, and, as he
stood there, willing prisoner in those
dimpled letters of love, she kissed him
in the low, non-reverberating fashion she
had learned at Vassar. Yes she said,
81 do indeed love you, and when we are
married viii prove that love by test
whose potency cannot be denied even by
those who scott at welded bliss. You
will know then that my love for YOU is
not the ephemeral passion of day, but
deep, enduring current that flows on
and on forever"
"What is that test?" he asked.

make biscuit. y Chicago Tribune.

Rhubarb, like currant bushes, will
grow almost anywhere and under any
treatment, and consequently receives
more i'll usage than any other "green
thing growing" But for this reason it
should not be supposed that when grow
ing under neglect and abuse it will do
its best and produce as abundant crops
and of equally good quality as when
good treatment is given.
After it is once planted rhubarb re-
quires little cultivation, but it must have
at all times deep, rich soil, the richer
the better. In field culture the roots are
planted about four feet apart each way,
and cultivated like any hoed crop. In
the family garden they should be planted
two to three feet apart, in single row,
at least four feet distant from other
plants.
1t may be raised from seed, but as
there is little reliance in the seedlings
being of the same variety as the parent
plants, division of the roots is the method
of propagation usually adopted. Any
piece of root with a bud or crown will
grow if planted about two inches
deep in mellow soil firmly pressed
around it. Roots may be planted
in autumn or early spring. Planta-
tions are usually renewed every four or
five years, yet when liberal dressing of
manure is given every fall the roots will
produce a crop for an almost indefinite
period. Heavy manuring, clean cultiva-
tion, and liberal space are the essential
requisites for raising large, succulent rhu-
barb The varieties best known are:
Linn@us, grown extensively for market
rs well as home use. 1t is early, very
productive, and of brisk, spicy flavor
Its principal fault is that it seeds so freely
that unless all flower stalks are cut off as
soor as they appear the crop deteriorates
rapidly
Victoria IS later, has larger leaves and
stalks, and requires very rich, rather
heavy ground for its development.
Paragon. This is new variety, origin
ated in England, and now introduced
here. The stalks are bright red, heavy,
and produced in quick succession and
great abundance. 1t is earlier, of more
delicate flavor, and decidedly less acid
than any other variety we are acquainted
with. But its most remarkable and most
valuable qualification is that it does not
produce flower stalks, to which fact its
great produc;iveness is mainly attribu-
table, all the strength of the plant being
used for the development of its leaves. =

A Lakeside Romance.

'Do you really love me, Beryl 2"
A pair of soft, lustrous eyes looked up
inquiringly into the face of HAROLD Wy
verne, and over the sweet, girlish face
swept a wave of pallor, quickly followed
by sunny smile as she saw by the ex-
preston of Harold's face that his question
had not been asked in seriousness.
How you frightened me-" she said,
nesting close beside him in the confiding,
trustful way that is so Characteristic of
woman when she is about to lay pipe for
new bonnet. eff you had been in
earnest, Harold, l believe your words
would have broken my heart"-and
stepping to the other side of the conserv-
atory, into which they had wandered
after the last waltz, she gazed stead
Easily out into the deepening gloom of
November night.
"Poor little birdling," said Harold to
himself, ''how madly she loves me. My
words even though spoken in jest, have
affected her strangely, and she steals away
for an instant to conceal the tears that
cannot be restrained"
Harold had never been arrested for
knowing too much. He was a young
man Of singularly pure life aud tight
pants, and never once had there swept
across the unlocked horizon of his lawn
tennis and cigarette existence the cold,
stolid fact that after whirling in the
dreamy measures of waltz even the best
women love to steal awhile away and
stand unostentatiously on the side OF
their feet in order that their corns may
throb untrammeled in all the buoyant
gladness of temporarily removed
slipper. And so, when he started to
cross the conservatory Beryl's quick
movement was interpreted as thrill of
joy at his approach, and there welled up
from his heart great flood of love for
his girl-a maelstrom of tender affection
chat he could neither control nor explain.
And when he had reached Bervl's side
he saw again the lustrous eyes looking
into his, felt the dewy lips quivering be-

The Hot RlNnl Curn

There are fashions in medicines and
curative agents as we'll as in dress The
virtues of hot water taken in the early
mornings, and at meals, is now urged by
many health reformers. Raw meat is ex-
tensively used in consumption and other
chronic diseases. The latest fashion in
Paris is the quafing of hot blood by
weakly and anemic young girls and
women. They drive daily to the slaugh-
ter-house to have cup of it, Just as
they would visit spring at watering
place. Some of them take bath of
hot blood once or twice week. Certain
fast young men in New York go to res
taurants, where they can procure rare
tenderloin steak broiled and served with
out gravy or any vegetable. At some
place machines are in vogue for squeezing
out the blood, WHICH can be served with
the kteak. The hot-water cure, by the
way, is as old as Gil Bias, for the treat
ment of DR.. Sangrado was hot water and
blood letting; but the moderns drink
blood, whereas the physicians of the sew
enteenth century let it out of the system.
