"Oh, mamms, my doll has got an
awful cold," said little Matte, the other
day, land 1 must have some whisky to
give it.
"Who told you whisky was good for
cold?" asked her mother.
"That's what papa says he drinks it
for"
"Oh, yes, he says that, but he hasn't
got any cold. He just tskes it for the
cold he is going to have"
"Well, my dolls goin' to have an
awful, awful cold tomorrow"

Endorsements of the Peoples Remedy.

When skllful and cautious medical men give over
their own signature a favorable opinion of the
soothing and yitazing effects of a preparation the
public does not hesitate to believe them The volu-
minous and emphatic professional testimony in
favor of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, as specific
for all disorders Of the stomach and bowels, for liver
complaint. intermittent and remittent fevers and
the thousand ills that wait upon dyspepsia must
convince the most skeptica!. Aside, however, from
the testimony of the faculty, there is large of
evidence from patients in every walk Of life, al
showing that this great preventive and restorative
is of inestimable value to the sick and the debi-
tated. The Bitters suited to all climates, and
universally endorsed preventive of disorders

A Word for Mutton.


The mutton of we'll sheep. of every
breed, from the Downs AMI Shires down
to the little wooded Saxony, is palatable
and healthful. None of the objections
urged against the use of pork can be
brought againt mutton. 1t has
never been known to ilnpart
scrofula, trichina. or tape worms
to its consumers. The sheep does
not thrive IN the mire, nor does it
consume garbage or vermin, or decaying
meats or vegetables. It does not wallow
in the trough it feeds from, but it is a
dainty and careful feeder, and is as
| clearly as needs be in its habits
| Mutton is more easily and cheap
ly produced than beef, is Just
as nutritious, and may be served
| n as great variety of forms. AS a
steady food it is far superior TO poultry,
and costs no more. We mean good, fat,
Juicy mutton: not that from the half
starved, scabby or footordered specimens
that have out-lived their breeding age
and been shorn of feeces enough to
furnish shoddy blank for tribe of
| Indians. People in cities seldom know
how really good mutton tastes, and the
remark may also apply to most families
| on the farm. The latter too often fail to
try it. We know of many well-to-do
farmers, men who have well stocked
farms, who do not slau ghter a sheep
during twelv ,month, yet who kill a pig
every month in the summer season, and
in the fall ''put down" pork enough to
last every other month during the year.
This is nation of meat-eaters, but it
| confines itself too exclusively to pork and
beef. 1t is better to sandwich in little
more mutton. A few sheep for family
consumption, even when they are not
kept for sale or wool, will be found a
most excellent investment on all farms.

Roast Meat.

An "Old Housekeeper" writes: 81
would like to tell Young Housekeeper'
my way of cooking rib roast, which is a
very good piece to bake. Have your
butcher take out the ribs ard roll up
the meat nicely and keep it together by
tying piece of clean cord around it.
Skewers are in the way and prevent
carving nicely. Have your oven about
as hot as when you bake bread, and
keep the same heat until the meat is
done. A ve-pound roast requires three
quarters of an hour in the oven if you
like 1t quite rare. Pepper and salt
your meat and put 1t in the dripping
pan without any water or dripping; to
be perfect it must be bastel with the
drip of the meat. When done remove
the meat. set the pan on the top of the
stove, and stir in as much -four az you
need to thicken the gravy. When
brown, thin with boiling water. IN. Y.

The farmer who makes an average Of
over 225 pounds year from his COWS is
a first-class dairyman, and this is only
about Al pounds week per cow for the
year. Think of raising this yield from
Al to the neighborhood of 20 ounds,
and see how the average flies r.. Two
or three COWS would then be able to

quired to do, with corresponding and
remarkable increase In the profit result

What is the dairyman to say about it2
1t is contamination devoutly to be
wished. If these men can by certain
lines of breeding create these .phenom-

ahead and do it, for the plain dairyman
will eventually be able to take advan-
tage of the result

SPEAKING Of the business of the
country, the New York Tribane says
the general business Of the country,
though most severely tested during the
past two years, has been found remark
ably sound, and the proportion to fail
ures to firms in business is no where
near as large as it has been in times of
real commercial disorder. Credit pan
les mean mischief, butth reaction that
comes from over production rarely in
wolves prolong disorders One of the
gratifying facts in this connection is
the reduction of unduly inflated stocks
to something near.their real value by
the squeezing process. -. -
