Fire on a Kansas Prairie.

What are your precautions against

fore.
"Such as will delight your homepath-
fc SOUL" answered the Enthusiast. "a

to set back fires with, though the fire.
guards of plowed ground that you have
seen all around the ranch are the ounce
of prevention, better than any cure.
Then we always keep hOgshead full of

the spot"
"a hogshead of waterl What good
can a hogshead of water do against a

"0h, We don't put it en- with hose, l
assure you. My Imagination gasps at
the conception of managing prairie
fire with hose. We dip old blankets
and old clothes in it, or boughs of trees
if we can get them, and beat the fire
with them"
The illustration followed seon. All
day smoke had been drifting over
Carniro, and at near night fall the
scouts reported that the whole force
had better be put on. The whole
force" at the moment consisted of about
twenty men who had just come in to
supper, and who started at once in wag-
ons and on horseback. Ponies were or
dered after dinner for the entire houses
hold even the ladies riding far enough to
have a view of the exciting scene. There
were no tumbling walls or blazing build
ings, and there was no fear of lives be-
ing lost ia upper stories; but there were
miles upon miles, acres upon aeaes, OF
low grass burning like a sea of fire,
while in the twilight shadows could be
seen gslloping fiercely on swift ponies,
while the slow wagons crept painfully,
ed, from every homestead, each with its
one pitiful hogshead. 1t seemed incred-
ible that such mass of fame could ever
be put out by such handful of workers;
and it was only, indeed, by each mans
laboring steadily at his own arc of the
circle, trusting blindly that others were
at work on the the other side, as of
course they always we're, that the lurid
scene darkened down at last.-Aice

A Noble Girl.

A young man in company with sever
al young gentlemen, called upon young
lady. Her father was also present to
assist in entertaining the guests. He
did not share his daughters scruples
against the use of spirituous drinks, for
had wine to offer. This was poured out
and would have been drank, but the
young lady asked:
Did you call upon me or papa?
Gallantry, if nothing else, compelled
them to answer:
we called on you
Then will you please pot drink wine
l have lemonade for my visitors.
The father urged the guests to drink,
and they were undecided.
The young lady added:
Remember, if you called on me, then
you drink lemonade, but if upon papa
why, in that case have nething to say.
The wine glasses were set down with
their contents untasted.
After leaving the house, one of the
party exclaimed: -
That was the most effectual temper
ance lecture l ever heard
The young man from whom these
facts were obtained, broke off at once
from the use of strong drink and holds
a grateful remembrance of the lady who
gracefully and resolutely gave him to
understand that her guests should not
drink wine.-Word of Life.

Spring Flowers.

The sweetest message of spring is that
which the flowers deliver in their own
gracious way. The true language of
fiowers-not the stilted and artificial one
is language which we all understand.
Flowers make direct appeal to every
body ard awaken pure emotion in the
common heart. Their speech is address
ed to those great and simple emotions
which in all places and in all periods
lurk in the souls of men. Distinctions
of age, and rank, and learning. are for
gotten in the presence of flowers, and as
people inhale their fragrance, they are
lifted into rarer atmosphere, where the
equalities of earth no longer prevail.
The flowers come laden with memories
to the old, and in that tender light their
very beauty seems transfigured. They
are to the young, emblems of hope, and
the message which they bring is one
which whispers of golden summers yet
to be. And so it comes to pass that those
who are starting out in life in the full
ness of their untried powers, and those
tho lie at its sunset gates, to whom this
world is making its final appeal, are alike
able to discover in the unspoken message
of the flowers of spring, words of peace
and healing appropriate to their needs.
No wonder that they make their own
welcome wherever they go, since they
light up our rooms like the faces of our
friends. And friends surely we may call
them, and that with no disparagement
even to the most sacred usage of the
term. Their presence-liket the presence
of those we love-is never unwelcome.
They heighten our gladness in happy
hours of mirth, and they sanctify and
express our grief when "the shadow
feared of man" falls acI oss the life of
home. Poor indded must be the heart
in which these "nurslings of the earth
and sky do not fail to waken, sooner or
later, Iongings for that better life of
which their beauty and purity seem to be
rophetic.-London Standard.

A curious physiological effect produced
by the action of turning eggs during int
cubation has been noted by M. Dareste.
From experiments made with artificial
incubators he has found that eggs not
turned two or three times day all in

of this act on the embryo, and accounts
for the action of the sitting bird on pure
ly physiological grounds.
Experiments have been made by a
committee of French experts, including
NJ. Pasteur, in order to ascertain the best

simply burning sulphur, as is done in
barracks and such places, bi>sulphide of

A Hint to Business Men.

The New York Newsdealer makes the
following suggestion to business men
"Poster advertising, rock and fence
painting, and flooding the mails with
circulars and postal cards are some of
the forms of advertising which disgust
more people than they attract, and even
if effective are very wasteful mode of
reaching the public. In the selection of
a proper medium many points of value
might be taken into consideration by
advertisers. Newspapers which are not
respected and faithfully read are not
good mediums for advertisers. News
papers that are purchased to while away
a half hour on street Car or elevated
railway, are not carried home and do not
sell anybody's wares. Such papers are
no better than circulars and almost as
wasteful. The experience of enterpris>
ing and sagacious business men demon
strates that the best results attend ad-
vertisiIg in the home those
which 90 into families and are read by
one after another in the home circle"

; Findings for Farmers.

Stable manure should always heat
somewhat before being drawn on the
land to destroy weed seed and to place
the elements of plant food in more avail
able form.
In making butter, good, sound, whole
some food is indispensable. To make a
good article from poor material is as i'm.
possible in dairying as in any manufac.
turing industry.
There is no danger of an over-produc-
tiOn of the best quality of goods. 1t is
the poor goods that do not sell at home
or abroad. What is desired is fine beef
fihe butter, fine cheese, etc., which are
always saleable.
Who has not observed that the soil is
always loose and moist beneath a stone
heap? The American Cultivator tells
of some pear trees that were mulched
with stones, and which made three times
the growth of any other. though all did
well.
For early cabbages the concentrated
forms of manure are especially valuable.
Care must be taken to purchase good
seed. That grown from the stumps of
roots which never headed will produce
fewer good heads under the same condi-
tions than seeds taken from cabbages
where the roots and heads are both
planted.
Butter should always be churned sew
eral degrees colder in summer than iu
winter. The reason is that the casein-
Gus matter of milk more readily attaches
itself to the butter globules in summer
than in winter, and that this adhesion
can best be prevented by cooler tenn
perature of the cream when churning is
fact.

The Revised Bible.

The new version of the Bible, which
will be before the public in its entirety
next week, had its origin in the appoint
ment, by the Convocation of Canterbury
on February 10, 1870. of Committee to
consider the deslrability of undertaking
a revision of the translation of 1911. In
Nav, the Convocation decided that such
a revision was desirable, and the task
was entrusted to a commission consist
ing of eight bishops and eight presby
with power to add to their number. This
commission divided itself into two cons
panies, one of which was charged with
the revision of the Old Testament, and
the other with that of the New. At
lirst the movement was entirely within
the Anglican communion. But the COM
mission soon determined to make the
work undenominational and representa-
tive of the whole English speaking race,
and eminent scholars from the various
evangelical denominations in Great
Britain were asked to take part in the
revision. American scholars were also
subsequently invited, and an American
committee was organized in 1871, which
began active work on October 4, 1872.
The British committee agreed to send
their work to the American committee,
who were to examine it and return it
with their suggestions. If the sugges
tions were not adopted they were to be
presented to the public in an appendix
to the Revised Version.
On the 18th of May the first copy of
the Revised New Testament was subs
mitted to the Convocation of Canterbury,
and on the same day the book was for
mally published. Its sale for time was
phenomenally large, reaching about 2,>
100000 copies in the first four days. The
demand for the Revised OLD Testament
will not be SO great, partly because its
general scope and character are antici-
pated, and partly because there is less
doctrinal interest in the Old Testament
than in the New. The British company
of Old Testament revisers originally
numbered thirty-seven persons, and rep
resented the best Biblical scholarship of
the country. OF these, nine have died
since the work began. The Old Testa-
ment company in America numbered
fifteen persons, of whom two are now
dead.-N. Y. Tribune.

Chronic Catarrh.

c. w. Mellier, of 4o6 South Fourth
street, st. Louis, is twenty years of age,
and has been. sufferer from chronic
catarrh, which had become quite often
sive. When he came to DIR. Hartman, two
months ago. he was told it would take six
months to cure him. But he has pro-
gressed beyond all expectations, and
nearly all signs of the disease have dis
appeared. Before being treated he could
not breathe out of the nose, and now he
has perfect control Of the nasal organ.
PERUNA did the business.
James Dunn, of 1910 Gay street, ST.
Louis, has suffered from catarlh, since
1870. The gentleman told the reporter
the following straightforward story of
his case. 81 took the disease in Mem
phis. 1t commenced in my head and
extended to my throat, and bad cough
followed. went to a number of ply
sicians, and they told me my trouble was
liver disease, and one said it was palpita-
ton of the heart that caused the cough.
For the last year have been practically
worthless. / could not ascend a flight of
stairs without suffering from shortness of
breath and fast beating of the heart, and
my appetite was very defective. After
eating | often coughed so hard that
would throw up everything in my stom-
ach. I could not walk any distance with
out painting. Five weeks ago went
under the care of DR.. Hartman. and now
my cough has disappeared and feel like
a new man." PERUNA was his treat
ment.
Next came George Sauerbaum, residing
at 1929 Carr street, St. Louis, who is an
old patient of DIR. Hartman. He stated
that he had suffered most intensely from
chronic catarrh of the head and lungs, but
is now almost cured, his lungs being en-
tirely well and his head greatly. improved.
The gratitude of this gentleman was
almost boundless, and he expressed it to
the reporter in the strongest terms, say
ing =" PERUNA will cure any disease"
