CONCERNING CHLDREN.-It is curious
how easily folks change their opinions.
Sumo of my Older children used to think
The younger ones were all bad and ought to
have lots of whipping and if they had
children they shouldn't do such things,
and so forth. Well, they have got children
now-childrcn of their own-and they are
about as bad as the common run, but they
don't get any whipping, and they are most
too precious to be scolded; and that is al
ways the way, and it is right, too, reckon,
for if the mother was not blind to the faults
of her bad children they wouldn't get o
good word from anybody. Sickness and
badness run together now. THE little
darling is sick or she would't be so cross"
When he is well he is just as good as he
can be-" That is the modern philosophy /;
and so when the child is bad and cuts up,
and disturbs hegeneral tranquility, it is
sick and must have some carminative or
cherry pectoral, or some other bad tasting
stuff, and that gets up more squealing and
does less good than q little dose of carmi-
native with the palm of the hand on some
tender place that was made for counter irri-
tants.-[Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution.

The odor of onions can be effectually re-
moved from the frying pan by boiling a

To make Cape May corn bread take one
pint sifted corn meal. pour on it one quart
of boiling water and two teaspoonfuls OF
salt, three eggs, the whites beaten first as
light as possible, and then add the yolks,
unbeaten, to the whites, and beat all again
until very light. Bake very thin.-[New
York Post.
At this time Of year, mutton is one OF
the best kinds of meat for health. To
make a nice mutton pie slice cold roast
mutton and lay in deep dish; put an
empty cup turned bottom up in the mid
die of the dish: this takes up the gravy
and keeps it from boiling over. Season
the meat with salt and butter and sprinkle
with flour; cover with crust and bake
forty minutes.
Caulifowers will not thrive except under
the very best conditions. They are grown
in the same manner as cabbage, only the
soil must be exceedingly rich. Many grow
ers have found it necessary to occasionally
water this crop, which is hindrance to
field culture, although the prices usually
obtained repay the care. If the leaves are
drawn together over the heads, blanching
will be greatly facilitated. - Prairie

Satisfy is not generally grown, at least
not in farmers gardens. 1t Is as easily

root is rarely more than an inch through at

often called "Oyster Plant" or " Vegetable

Eating ct Night

Popularity eating mt night is thought in
furious, but unless dinner or supper have
been late, or the stomach disordercd. it is
harmless and benciicial-t. e.. if one be
hungry Four or five hours having elapsed
since the last meal, invalids and the deli
cate should always eat at bedtime. This
seems heretical, but it is not. Food Of SIM
pie kind will induce sleep. Animals after
eating instinctive!y sleep. Human beings
become drowsy after a full meal Why ?
Because blood is solicited toward the sto-
mach to supply the juices needed i'll diges-
ton. Hence the brain receives less blood
than during fasting, becomes pale, and the
powers become dormant. Sleep therefore
ensues. This is physiological The sink
ing sensation in sleeplessness is call for
food Wakefulness often is merely a symp-
tom of hunger. Crafty the desire and you
fall asleep.
The writer Was recently called at 2 A. n
to lady who assured him that she was
dying. The body was warm, the heart
doing honest work. To her Indignation
he ordered buttered bread (hot milk or tea
were better) to be eaton at once. Obcying,
the moribund lady was soon surprised by
return of life and desire to sleep. The
feeble will be stronger at dawn if they eat
on going 10 bed. Fourteen hours lie be-
tween supper and breakfast. by that time
the fuel Of the body has become expended.
Consequently the morning toilet fatigues

glass of warm milk or beef tea before

latter eats less often merely because his
food requires more time for digestion. Sci
dom can one remain awake until half-past
10 or II in the evening without hunger.
Satisfy it and sleep will be sound. During
the night give wakeful children food Sleep
will follow The sick should invariably
eat during the night This is imperative.
All night the delicate and children may
take warm milk, beef tea or oatmeal Cruel.
Vigorous adults may also eat bread and
milk, cold beef, mutton, chicken and bread,
raw oysters all of course in moderation.
Do not cat if not hungry. Eat if you are.

and he questioned him numerically.
"Ah, Doctor" inquired the lawyer,
''did understand you to say the cut in

"Yes, SIR replied the doctor.

Over Eating.

The late Gen. Todleben, the defend
er of Sebastopol, died literally of over
eating. BY the direction of DR.. Sven
ninger, the daily meals of the General
were divided into six portions, and the
hour was fixed when to take each meal.
But Todleben, who never in his life
had listened to the advice of doctors,
laughed at DR.. Sweningers instruc-
tions. "The doctor is mistaken" he
said "my organism is weakened and
needs strengthening; my good appe-
tite is clear proof of this" The six
meals were taken, but at each of them
he ate all the six portions assigned for
the whole day. Thus three weeks
went by. The condition of the pa
tient did not grow worse, and the day
was fixed for him to start fer Russia,
when he tainted suddenly during a
walk. He had hardly reached his res
idence after recovering consciousness
when he asked for the bill of fare.
When it was given to him he express
ed his astonishment at having received
blank sheet of paper-he had lost
his sight His feet had for some time
past shown signs OF dropsy, but, cur
iously enough, the General had hidden
this from those around him. He fought
indomitably against the disease, but in
vain. Two days before his death he
lost consciousness, and died on the day
which had been fixed for his return to
Russia.
