HEALTH HINTS.

Cream cures sunburn on some complex
ions, lemon juice is the best on others,
and cold water suits still others.
Put five drops of chloroform on a Lit.
tie cotton or wool in the bowl Of a clay
pipe, then blow the vapor through the
stem into an aching ear and instant re.
lief will be afforded.
For chapped hands, get some caput
oil and battle your fingers night and
morning, and you will be relieved of the
cracks and chaps Keep your hands out
of cold water for few days.
When one has had the fever, and the
hair is falling out, take cupful Of sage,
steep it in quart of soft water, and
then strain it off into a tight bottle
Sponge the head frequently with the tea,
wetting the roots of the hair.
One of the best remedies for rough OF
chafed hands is the following: One
ounce of glycerine, one ounce of rose
water, six drops of carbolic acid. In
cold weather, whenever it is necessary
to wash the hands, apply a few drops
when they are moist, and rub well into
the skin. 1t may also be used for the face.

COrea.

The peninsula of Corea is separated
from China by the Yellow Sea, and from
the insular empire of the Mikado by the
Straits of Corea and the Sea of Japan.
1t is about five hundred miles long and
about one hundred and fifty miles broad
and in its physical aspects bears strong
resemblance to the kingdom of Italy. 1t
1t is highland country, with the pre-
vailing course of its mountain ranges
running from north to south. The
whole peninsula is subject to greater ex-
tremes of heat and cold than alternate in
corresponding latitude in Europe. The
valley of Corea may be held to be
nothing but great rice-felds, always I'M
der water, and where the OK is the only
beast of burden. The Corean himself is
almost amphibious-all day long he
works in the water. Corea is richly fur
nished with mineral resources-gold, sill
yer, copper, iron, and coal are said to be
of frequent occurrence

Cost Him the SenatOrship.

Hannibal Hamlin tells that when he
was speaker of the lower house of the
Maine Legislature, there was among the
members a very dandiied old fellow
whose chief weakness was in trying to
conceal the badness which was rapidly
stealing over his head. He came into
the house each morning with his hair so
carefully combed that it looked as though
each particular hair had been pasted in
its place. Even as it was, there were
scarcely enough to cover the bald spot.
One morning Speaker Hamlim, thinking
to have some fun, called this gentleman
to him and said "My dear Blank, l beg
your pardon, but one of your hairs is
crossed over the Others" The member
grew angry at once and replied; "You
insult me, sir! you insult mel'' and
walked stify back to his seat. He re-
fused to be reconciled, and he became
Hamlin's lifelong enemy. A few years
later, when Hamlin was u candidate for
the United States Senate, this man was
again in the Legislature, and his vote de-
cided the contest in favor of Hamlin's
opponent.

Specific Advertising,

81 always make it point" said a
wide awake merchant, ito be specific
and direct in my advertisements. l do
not generalize, but select the goods |
wish to sell at particular time, and in
a plain, terse manner. call public atten-
ton to them. do not in general way
advertise my goods, but in a special
way call attention from week to week
to some spncial line or department, and
when this has been done l then change
to another line, and continue changing
from one department to another until
Pill my stock has, in adirect special man
per, been placed before the public.
''My experience has convinced me that
advertisers would pay strict attention
% the advertisements they insert in the
newspapers, change them often, and
teep them fresh and new, it would pay
hem better than to let one run from
week to week without alteration until it
becomes stale and improbable.
The good sense of the "wide-awake
merchant" will be at once realized, if we
consider the fact that the ordinary adj
vertisements of local merchants are very
stereotyped in form, and about alike.
In most cases the dry-goods merchant,
for example, simply states that he has a
large stock of dry goods, or, going more
into detail, that he has line of such
and such kinds of goods. This is not
specific enough to attract the buyer to
patronize one merchant rather than
another. We think that country mer-
chants would find it profitable to initiate
the large retail dry goods houses of
New York city. The examination of
one of the issues of the Sunday Herald,
for instance, will show large number
of advertisements, many of column or
more in length, written in running,
conversational style-about, in fact, as
an intimate friend might take you
through his store, making comments as
to styles, prices, amount of stock, ETC.,
etc. The result is, that the advertise
ments are interesting even to those who
have no intention of buying.
The ladies read these advertisements,
and by comparing the prices, assort-
ments and styles know just where to go
to get just what they wish. These are
published at great expense to the
dealers, but they bring a correspondingly
large return, and are therefore paying in
vestments. Of this there can be no
question, as these houses continue to ad-
vertise, week after week, which, of
course, they would not do did they not
find it profitable. In no other way is it
possible for them to reach such large
number of people promptly and in a
manner which shall insure the adver-
tisement being read.--Ne,o England

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Treatment of Calves,

have been fairly successful, having never
lost but one matured calf in thirty years.
Two or three weeks previous to calving,
She COW is separated entirely from the
herd and given a large, airy, lyipg-in
stall, and is here kept as nearly in per-
feet quiet as possible. AS the time APP
proaches for her to drop the calf, l
watch her carefully so as to render any
assistance that may be required. Some
times the life of valuable calf may be
saved by few moments of timely assist
ance. The calf when dropped is allowed
to remain with the mother for one week,
and sometimes longer, as judgment may
dictate. Some calves that are a little
weak may require mothers care even
longer, but ordinarily a week will an
swer. The COW is then taken to her ac-
customed stall in the dairy. l always
remove the COW at night, and she sell

Now for the calf. The first time
undertake to feed it milk about one
quart from the mother, and generally
succeed in getting about two-thirds
down. Having sucked the night before
it is not yet hungry enough to drink. At
night about two quarts is MIXED, and
perhaps two thirds will be drank.
Generally the third time they will drink
without any trouble. After one week,
in which increase little each day, but
go slow; the third week they are put on
a ration of half new milk, and half
skinned, and are fed three times day,
morning, noon and night. They will do
much better if you have six quarts of
milk to give each calf to give them two
quarts three times day than to give
them three quarts twice day.
This brings lis up to the fourth week,
when we discontinue the milk entirely,
and feed only SKINNED, and you may
now feed safely three quarts three times
day, and at noon handful of dry
wheat bran is thrown in their dish after
they have finished drinking. In another
week this may be done twice day with
entire safety. Calves having been thus
fed will never have their digestive or
gans overtaxed, and at the age of ten or
twelve weeks you can crowd along about
as fast as you please. At that age | chop
three parts oats and one part buckwheat
for feed.
have never found it necessary to use
any of the highly stimulating feeds to
make fine calves, believing can have a
healthier animal and one of stronger
constitution at one year of age, although
they may not make as great growth the
first few weeks. | never allow calves to
be exposed to storm, and keep them in a
warm, dry place in cold weather, and
their quarters are kept clean and neat
also, l never allow calves to drink cold
milk until they are three months old
and last, but not by any means least,
do not trust to boys or hired men to feed
them, always preferring to do it myself.
