TERM REPORT.

Any rule in regard to quantity of
food for poultry is difficult to establish
and unsafe to rely upon, because the
appetite of flock is not always the
same. They may eat a gwen quanti-
ty for breakfast one morning and leave
half OF it the next. Nature is the
only intallIble guide A fowl is natur-
ally most incessant feeder. At lib
erty they are continually searching for
something to eat. In confinement We
should initiate nature as far as we can
in caring for them.

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.

1atueI, ntoLutrj auu 1uIee olstefS Oeau.
Mr.. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
alarms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., n. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were so weak raised blood. Nobody
thought I could live My work ship
smithing was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition |
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and it saved my life Because it was SO
difficult to get it in this little place, and I
had improved so much, l stopped taking it
for time, and the result is that have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and 1 must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and will make affidavit to it, for I
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bitters."
Thes secret of the almost invariable relief
and cure of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhea, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. ) Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared by regular
physician; standard medicinal prepara-
ton; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists. These are four strong points in favor
of Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb
Bitters is sold by all druggists. Price S1.00
per large bottle. 6 bottles for $500. :,

En-. GRAPHIC: The battle of Shiloh

terrible events OF those two bloody

INFANTILE INSTINCT.
HIrds and Insects kn"wing How Ia Live
the Moment Th"S Ar" Born.

Chickens. two minutes after they have
left the egg, will follow with their eyes
the movements Of crawling insects, and
pick at them, Judging distance and di-
rcCtiun with almost IntallIblr accuracy.
They will inStinCtivcly appreciate
sounds. readily running toward an in
visible hen hidden in a box when they
hear her call Some young birds
also have an innate, instructive horror
of the sight of Il hawk and the sound
of its voice. Swallows, titmicc. tom
tits and wrcns, after having been con
fined from birth. are capable Of flying
successfully at once when liberated, on
their wings having attained the neccs
sary growth to render flight possible.
The Duke of Argyll relates some very
interesting particulars about the in
stincts of birds, especially of the water
ousCl, the mcrgan~cr and the Wild duck.
Even rs to the class Of beasts find re-
corded: Give young polccats were
found comfortably imbcddcd in dry,
withered grass, and in a side hole Of
proper dimensions for such larder
were forty frogs and two toads, all
alive, but merely capable Of sprawling
a little. On examination the whole
number, toads and all, proved to have
been purpOscly and dcNtcruu>ly bitten
through the brain. Evidently the par
cnt polccat had thus provided the
Young with food which should be kept
perfectly fresh because alive, and yet
was rendered quite unable to escape.
| This singular instinct is like others
which are yet more fully developed
among insects = class of animals the
| instincts of which are so numerous,
| wonderful and notorious that it will be
| probably enough to refer to one or two
| examples. The female carpenter bee,
in order to protect her eggs cXcavatcS
| in some piece Of wood a series Of cham
bers. in special order, with n view To "a
| peculiar mode of exit for her young,
but the Young mother can have no con
scious knowledge of the series Of ac-
tions subsequently to cnsuc. The fc-
male OF the wasp, sphcN, affects an
other wcll-knUwn, but very remarkable
example of complex instinct closely
related to that already mentioned in
the case Of the polecat. The female
wasp has To provide fresh, living animal
food for her progeny, which, when 1t
| quits its egg, quits it in the form OF an
| almost helpless gruO, utterly unable 10
catch, retain or Kill an active struggling
prey.
Accordingly, the mother insect has
not only to provide and place beside
her eggs suitable living prey, but Sc
treat it that it may be Il helpless, unrc-
sisting victim. That victim may be 4
mere caterpillar, or it may be great,
powerful grasshOppcr, or even that
most fierce, active and r"paciuus Of in
sect tyrants fell and yruomOuS spider
Whichever 1t may be-, the wasp adroilly
stings it AT the spot which induces, ol
in the several spots which induce, com
plete paralysis as to motion let us
hope as To sensation also. This done
the wasp iutonbs the helpless bcina
with his own egg. and leaves it for til,
support Of the future grub. fUrtntyM
