That such is not the fact is not the fault
of our farmers not working, or that they
are not economical in their expenses.
They are hard working industrious
class and their expenses for the luxur-
les OF life are the least of any class of
citizens of The United States. Wheat
heretofore has been the crop most re-
lied upon to sell and raise money for
needed expenses, and the price of
wheat here is based on the price of
wheat i'm London, where it comes in
competition with the wheat of other
nations. But when the farmer buys his
clothing, boots and shoes and other
goods, he discovers that the price of
these articles are not fixed by the great
market of the world which regulates the
price of his wheat; he finds set of men
standing between him and that market,
and backed by the protective ariffthey
add from % to 80 per cent to the price
of his purchases. The result is thus ex-
pressed. The money the farmer re-
ceiyes for what he sells will not pur-
chase the goods he needs and leave him
any surplus for profit. This statement
is true with very few exceptions in the
great northwest, and AS rule when we
find a farmer getting ahead of his debts
We find one engaged in stock rails

Olaf Rygh, the Norwegian HerOdotus,
tells us that when the old l}aresarks felt
the approach of their end they robbed
death of its sting by drifting out to sea
in a scuttled or burning boat and thus
expired, "scrc aiming the wild battle
songs of their tribe" The Roman gladi-
ators shouted and laughed aloud while
their wounds were being dressed. A
scalded child sobs and gasps for thera-
peutical purpose; instinct teaches it the
readiest way to benumb the feeling of
pain.
The physiological rationale of all this
is that rapid breathing is an an@sthetic.
In paper read before the Philadelphia
Medical society, May 10, 1880, DR.. w.
A. Bonwill ascribes that effect to the in
tluence of the surplus oxygen which is
thus forced upon the lungs, just as by
the Inhalation of nitrous oxide gas,
which is composed of the same element
as common air but with larger proper
ton of oxygen, and mentions a larg- va
riety of cases in his own practice where
rapid breathing produced all the essen
tial effects of chemical pain obtunder
without appreciably diminishing the
consciousness of the patient. Persons
who object to the use of chlOroform (per-
haps from an instructive dread that in
their case ether slumber might prove a
sleep that knows no waking can be-
numb their nerves during the progress
of surgical operation by gasping as
rapidly as possible.
Zone of the most remarkable proofs
of its efficacy" says DR.. Bonwill, "was
the case of boy of eleven years of age,
for whom had to extract the upper and
lower first permanent molars on both
sides. He breathed rapidly for nearly a
minute, when | removed in about twenty
seconds all four of the teeth. He de
clared there was no pain, and we needed
no such assertion, for there was not the
slightest indication that he was under,
going severe operation. "-Popular Sci

WISE WORDS.

There is always a spot in our sunshine
it is the shadow of ourselves.
Nothing present is so barren but that
there are fertile fields beyond.
Have the courage to prefer comfort and
propriety to fashion in all things.
OF all the things that man possesses,
woman alone takes pleasure in being pos
sessed.
There are no persons more solicitous
about the preservation of rank than those
who have no rank at all.
To look forward proftably we must
look back. Experience of the past is
the best light for the future.
Silence never shows itself to so great
an advantage as when it is made to reply
to calumny and defamation.
If we did but know how little some en-
Joy the things they possess. there would
not be much envy i'll the world.
There are moments when our passions
speak and decide for us, and we seem
to stand by and wonder. They carry in
them an inspiration of crime, that in
one instant does the work of long pre-
meditation

How Keen Potatoes Fresh.

In an article by the writer upon the
"Hygiene of the Naval and Merchant
Marine" published in Bucks Hygiene,
allusion was made to the use of potatoes
preserved by the whalers in their long
cruises, as observed some years ago in a
cruise in the Pacific ocean.
As they were inspected then, the pota-
toes were fresh, uncooked, had been
peeled, cut into slices, placed in hogs
head and covered with dense black
"Sugar house molasses, such as is not
found in the market at the present time.
The potatoes were. when cut into, white
in the interior, and only the superficies
were of dark brown color, to perhaps
the extent of less than line in depth.
Their taste was fresh, and to all APP
pearances they had retained their other
wise natural condition.
The length of time that they had been
so preserved could not be definitely as
certained, but the information was that
they kept fresh and sweet for a long
time, and that they were always ready
for cooking Saaitaridn.

HEALTH HINTS.

For a sore chest, apply, upon retiring,
hops saturated with vinegar till re-
lieved.
In case Of slecplessness induce mus
cular fatigue by walking, and refreshing
sleep will follow.
A change Of diet, air and habitaton,
with a vegetable tonic and blood puri-
fer will cure all durable cases of cancer
When dining, have some cheerful con-
vcrsation. 1t is not only powerful APP
pctizer but it is also an adjuvant to
stomachal digestion.
Some people prefer hot lemonade to
the usual form, but it is only recently
that we have seen it recommended in
diarrhpa, says the Scientific american. DR..
Nigouroux recommends glass of hot
lemonade every hour, or half hour, as an
easy, agreeable, and efficient treatment Of
diarrhUa.
A writer in the Ne lcaL Times and
Gazette recommends the use of hot milk
as a restorative. Milk when heated
above 100 i. loses its sweetness and den
sity, but has a most beneficial influence
over mind and body when exhausted by
labor or mental strain. Its effects are
more invigorating and enduring than
those of alcoholic stlmulants.

Amusing Duels.

During the progress of the duel be-
tween Senator William NJ. Gwin and
Representative J. w. McCorkie, in 1885,
says the San Francisco Aita- California;, a
poor donkey nearly half a mile away was
shot dead-and the donkey was not even
a spectator. Sterne once fought duel
about a goose, and Raleigh one concern
ing a tavern bill. An Irishman once
challenged an Englishman because the
latter declared that anchovies did not
grow on trees \ member of Louis
XVIII,'s body-guard challenged three
men in one day-one because he had

captain was once challenged and named
harpoons as weapons. A Frenchman who

Bilious symptoms invariably arise

Bilious oymptoms invariably arise
from Indigestion, such as furred

bile and acts like filter or sieve,
to cleans impurities of the blood.
BY irreguiarity in its action or sus-
pensions of it's functions, the bile
is liable to overflow into the blood,
causing jaundice, SaloW COM
