SAND BAG FOR THE SICK ROOM = One of the most convenient articles to be use in sick room is a sand bag. Get some clean, fine sand; dry it thoroughly in kettle on the stove. Make bag about eight inches square of flannel, fill it with the dry sand, sew the opening carefully to- gether, and cover the bag with cot ton or linen This will prevent the sand from sitting out and will also enable you to heat the bag quickly by placing it in the oven or even on top of the stove. After once using this you will never again attempt tc warm the feet or hands oi g sick per son with bottle Of hot water or 6 brick. The sand holds the heat 2 long time. and the bag can be tuck ed up to the back without hurting the invalid. It is good plan tc make two or three of the bags and keep them on hand, ready for use al any time when needed.

X Religious Awakening.

WaSh1ngton fress.
 A revival of religious interest has swept over Arkansas this year al most like tidal wave. Nothing like it was ever witnessed in the State before. Splendid results have not been confined alone to the efforts Of s.professional' eyangelists, if we may use the term without offense, tut fegplar pastors have been more successful than ever before. There IS hardly town or country neigh borhood in the State Tn which there has not been stirring revival meet ing and persons gathered into the church by the score. The Method. ists, Cumberland Presbyterians and Baptists have, perhaps, been the most active in the good work; but members of all churches have joined them and no spirit of sectarianfsm has poisoned the meetings, while the beauteons harmony of true re. ligion has been fully exemplified From such a religious awakening among the people of all classes, good results, both public and private will flow. It is the source of all morality, which stamps civilization either hlgh or low; and it brightens and polishes and quickens mans bet ter nature. It purlfies the public atmosphere, as it were, and has g good effect upon the whole people Even those who can claim member ship with no church look on witl pleasure and rejoice in the progress of the good work. The movement gives no other evidence than that o fair beginning. Waves have beer | put Tn motion that, widening as they roll, will break only on eternity's strand, richly laden with harvest for the Masters hand!

PRICE FIVE CENTS.
The Queen of Women .

When you want to get the grand est idea of queen you do not think of Catherine of Russia, or of Anne of England, or of Maria Theresa of Ger many, but when you want to get your grandest idea of 2 queen, you think of the plain woman who sat opposite your father at the table. or walked with him arm in arm down life's pathway, sometimes to the Thanksgiving banquet, sometimes to the grave. but always together, sooth- ing your petty griefs, correcting your childish wavwardness, joining in your evening prayers, toiling for you with needle or at the spinning wheel, and on cold nights wrapping you up snug and warm. And then at last, on that day when she lay Tn tue back room dying, and you saw her take those thin hands, with winch sine toiled for you so long, and put them in a dying prayer that com mended you to the God whom she had taught you to trust--oh, she was queen! The chariots of God went down to fetch her, and, as she went in, all heaven rose up. You cannot think of her now WiHhout a rush of tenderness that stlrs S deep foun dation of your soul, and you feel as much Q child again as when you cried on her lap; and if you could brlpg her back again to speak your name as tenderly as she used to speak it, you would be willing to throw yourself upon the ground and kiss the sod that covers her, crying : "Mother" An, she was the queen -Talmage.

Wedding Fashions Among Canadian
 Peasants.

The chief social event of their lives is a wedding almost the only set occa- sion Of festivities. The priest then per- mits dancing among relatives. and al- lows unusual expenses to be incurred. But, to begin at the beginning, boys and girls generally see but little of one another, separated as they are in col leges and convents, and subsequently having but formal meetings, closely supervised by parents. The priest di- rects that courtship shall be very short and circumspcot It generally lasts but few months; engagements are made very much after the pecuniary interests followed in France, and the marriages generally occur at from eighteen to twenty-two years of age.
 A widower of this place recently went to spend the evening with neighbor, whose sister was an old maid whom no one had thought of marrying. When he left the house her brother suggested that he should marry her. They re- turned to the house and went together to her bed, in one corner of the room, and woke her up. Holding tho candle up to his face he said:
 "Mlle. G., take good look at me; I'm rather worse than seem by candle-light, and I've nine small chil- dren, and not 6 great deal of land. Will you marry me?'
 She rubbed her eyes, still half asleep, looked him over moment, and said:
 "Yes."
 .sThen be ready next Tuesday,
 In another case, the day after the banns of marriage had been published here, the intended found his betrothed crying by the window.
 s.What's the matter, MariaP"
 Well, Baptist, my sister Louise wants very much to marry, because she's older, and it's her turn first. And | it makes me sad to see her disappointed. Now If you would only marry her Ev- erything is ready, you know, and il woul dbe such relief. {"
 Well. well, don't cry about that, " said he, with moments surprise. ''l don't mind if do. Go and tell her to get ready.
 The Church forbids the union oi blood-relations, but it sells for a moder- ate price permits for even first cousins to marry, so that consanguneous unions are very common in these old parishes, where fanilies have kept increasing and settling near the old homestead till they form clans sometimes numbering several hundred of one name. More over, the priest permits such marriages sometimes in consideration of certain circumstances, such as the needs of g family for step-mother. or step-father, the lack of beauty reducing the chances l of n xv,sruan to Uat nn0fhcr offer or the advance of age, or the poverty of c woman.~-C. 4.

Scrofula of the Lungs Relieved.

ScrOfula of the Lungs Relieved.
 am now 49 years old, and have suffered for the last fifteen years with lung trouble. Several mem bers of the family on my mothers side of the house had died with con sumption, and the doctors were all agreed Tn their opinion that l had consumption also. l had all the dis tressing symptoms of that terrible disease. 1 have spent thousands of dollars to arrest the march of thls disease; 1 have employed all of the usual methods, not only in my own case, but in the treatment of other members of my family, but tempora- " relief was all that 1 obtained. l was unfit for any manual labor for several years. By chance l came into possession of pamphlet cn "Blood and Skin Diseases" from the office of Swift Specific Co.,, Atlanta, Ga. A friend recommended tue use of Swift's Specific, claiming that he himself had been greatly benefited by it's use in some lung troubles. resolved to try it. About four years ago 1 commenced t6 take 5. 5. $. ac- cording to directions. l found it an inyigorating tonic, and have used about fifty bottles. The results arc most remarkable. My cough has lefr me, my strength has returned, and weigh sixty pounds more than ever dld in my life. It has been three years slice 1 stopped the use of the medieiI e, but I have had nc return of the d sease, and there arc no pains or weakness felt in my lungs. 1 do tie hardest kind of me chanical work, and feel as well as ever felt since l was boy. These 1 know, are wonderful statements tc make, but 1 am honest when l say that owe my existence and health to day to Swift's Specific. It IS the only medicine that brought me any permanent relief. do not say that Swiit's Specific will do this in every case, but most positively affirm that it has done this much for me, and would be rccreant to the duty 1 owe to suffering humanity if failed to bear this cheerful testimony to the merits of this wonderful medicine J am well known in the city of Mont gomery, and can refer to some of the best citizeus in the city.

Agrlcultural Items.
Rural and Workman.

The proper method of training fruit trees is no longer mooted question. The weight of authority on the part of experienced Hortlcul tura!ists IS decidedly in favor of low heading, with severe cutting back each season. A low top is easily kept in shape, is more convenient for the gathering of the fruit, less liable to be broken by the winds and meantime, protects the trunk from sudden variations of temperature.
 FALL PLANTING OF STRAWBERRIES. Not many practice this, but to those who do, nlnt as to the depth of planting may be in order just now. They should be set just as deep as where they stood before, for if plant ed little too deep, the crown of fruit buds now enclosed, will be smothered, and will fail; while if planted too shallow, or lifted the least bit by frost, the blossoms will be frozen if there should very cold weather happen when the ground is clear of snow.
 ORCHAD GRASS, or cocks foot, is perhaps one of our best grazing grasses tor shaded pastures. It springs up early and makes strong plant and is quite tender and exceed ingly palatable to stock. Prepare the land by cutting out the under brush, after which bull tongue and harrow until you have loose soil enough for catch. then SOW the seed in the chatf, at the rate of two bushels per acre, after which brush tue seed in, and the work is done, Sow anytime before cold weather, or in early spring in this climate.
 One of the greatest needs in Ark ansas just now is better farm meth ods and better farmers. We want men to till our soil, who are not wed ded to old methods. Men who have the courage to leave the old beaten track, and reach out on all sides after knowledge, and accept the teachings of science and invention, a. least such as give promise of greater success. Ib order to bring this about, we need also'independent men with more thorough agricul tural and better scientific education This cannot be expected of many oi the older farmers Of the present day, for they, not unlike Ephram of Old "arc joined to their idols," their old methods, and persist in being let alone. Our hope is ls the rising generation, and the young farmers oi to day. they who arc to take up the implements of labor as they fall from the hands of the fathers, the tolers of the last half century. The achievements in agricultural science in the past decade, have kept step in measure. with that of mcchan ism, they have gone hand in hand as it were, and will so continue tc do. Young farmers, think of this and meantime. strive to keep well tf the front in this mighty vanguard ol l progress.
