A Tonic in the rrue Sense OF che word

A Tonic in the rrue Sense OF the Word.
Not all medicinal preparations called
tonics are such. A mere stimulant of
appetite, which gives simple "fillip of
Nature" which removes no obstacle to
her processes in the human system, is
in no true sense a tonic. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters not only transcends in
purity the ordinary unmedicated slim
ulants of commerce, the cheap local
bltters, and eye openers vended as
tonics, but where they are powerless to
do more than impart temporary slim
ulus to the appetite, the Bitters restores
digestion, remedies billiousness and in
sures regularity in the habit of body. 1t
is, therefore, tonic in he true sense of
the word, for does it not renew harmony
of tone in the most important functions
of the body, where all before was dis
cordant, feeble and inharmonious? Be-
sides this, its inyigorating and regulat-
ing effects constitute it the best possible
safeguard against malarial diseases. 1t
conquers rheumatism, kidney COM
plants and nervousness.

An Historic Cannon-Ball,

Portsmouth (Va.) Letter is Boston Transcript
We found the old st. Paul's erected
$50 years ago, almost the only building
that escaped the great confagration OF
the town in 1776. It is an object of
much interest, is built of brick, and the
walls have the blush. glazed appear
ance caused, it is said, by extra heating
of the kiln; and there, three feet below
the caves, in one corner, on the side
facing the river, half imbedded, was the
famous cannon ball. When the fissure
was first discovered the ball was missing.
It was supposed to have been displaced
by the heating Of the walls when the in
terror of the church was burned in the
war of the Revolution. About eighty
years after, man having an idea OF
cause and effect, given the hole, rea-
soned that the object that caused it
must be somewhere in the vicinity, and
digging IN the ground below the spot
was rewarded by finding the identical
ball fred into the town by the Britishers
so many years ago. 1t weighed twenty
pounds and half, but it was thought
its Weight had been diminished by cor
roslon and that it was originally a
twenty four pound shot. It was after
wards cemented Into the original cavity,
and there it rests, amidst the ivy, and,
as the books say. is a eft and lasting
monument of British folly and oppres-
| sion."

Agricultural Miscellany.

In some parts of the country corn
stalks are never stacked or taken into
account. In few places yet the corn
itself is never husked or harvested, but
left standing, while cattle and hogs are
turned into the fields in Winter to help
themselves. In Virginia 10 per cent of
the crop, Or nearly 100000 buseels,
was left in the field over Winter last
year; in Tennessee, 5 per cent, or
1886, 900 bushels. Kentucky and Ohio
had each nearly 5000, 900 bushels, while
Illinois left 17,11S,O00 bushels uahar-
vested. Thrifty Kansas left % per cent
of her crop, or 81, $3.50 bushels, I'M
gathered, while in the whole United
States 10, 811, 900 bushels were left to
mercy of Winter weather under this
primitive form Of husbandry.
The food exerts great influence up
on the quality of the butter. Cotton
seed meal makes hard butter with a
good color but a disagreeable flavor;
linseed meal makes soft, greasy, light
oolored butter. The best quality of
butter is made from yellow cornmeal
with one-third its bulk of coarse mid
dlings with the bran in it. Glover hay
should be fed for butter, and pea meal
is thought to be the richest food for
making butter. No doubt if it were
mixed in equal proportions with fine

yellow corn meal and coarse middllngs
the mixture would make the finest and
most butter. II one doubts the effect
of food upon milk, and necessarily upon
butter, he may feed some wild onions,
cabbages, turnips, or ragweed hay,
when he will soon be convinced of the
fact.
AS a rule it is best to pillow in manure,
but not deeply SO as to bury it. It does
the most good when it is mixed with
the soil, as it is absorbent of moisture
and helps to keep the soil from drying.
1t is also then in the best condition for
decomposing and helping to exert IA
vorable effect upon the soil to far
greater extent than if it were spread on
the surface and dried by the wind and
sun, and therefore inert in every way.
Besides, when it is we'll mixed with the
soil by plowing and narrowing it fur
nishes food to the roots Of plants in
precisely the place where they can find
1t. while If it is on the surface it is out
of their reach, as the roots as rule do
not try to go that way.
DR.. John R. Woods, of Virginia, tells
how he makes extra fine hams. At the
outset there must be the right sort of a
hog. perfectly fattened. This does not
mean any hog fed on corn, but one
Which has we'll developed ham to start
with, and then the animal must be kept
healthy. The Doctor gives plenty Of
charcoal, which keeps the stomach in
order and the digestion perfect. Then
he believes in sulphur and ashes to
cleanse the blood, and salt also, as the
hogs seem to crave it. Hams made from
hogs selected and fattened in this way,
and all Of the flesh, will be greatly SUI
perlor to that of hogs carelessly fatten-

Fashion for Hair Dressing for 1885.

Agreed by the Hair Dealers Association.
The spring and summer fashions for
ladies hair dressing will not change ma
terially from the styles which have pre-
vailed during the winter; the hair con-
tinues to be worn high, the bow knot
on the crown of the head, with few
waves and short curls tapering toward
the neck, being almost universal for
ordinary wear. The front half is worn
very fluffy in Pompadour shape, per-
feet nest OF short waves and ring curls !:
many ladies use small P ompadour roll
to heighten the front hair, and pin their
front coiffures. These styles are worn
by young ladies also, but there are
many ladies, particularly those whose
hair is turning gray, who do not think
these curls are dignifed, and who pre-
fer to wear the hair parted in the centre
and waved in large waves at the sides.
Madonna style"
The straight bang is still worn by q
few, but since the little cash girls in
fancy stores nave adopted this style,

Washing E1anuels.

An English journal gives the follow
ing practical hints on the subject:
''Take as much good washing soap
as seems requisite; pare it up fine, pour
over some boiling water, and let it stand
till the soap is quite dissolved, stirring
it occasionally. If left to stand for
some hours, it will be found to be a
thick jelly. Add to this sufficient
warm water to wash the hannels in one
by one. Knead them about well, but
do not rub any soap on the fannels,
and do not rinse them in plain water,
but have ready another lather, warm
and we'll blued, in which rinse out the
fannels. Do not wiring them at all
tightly. A wringing- machine does
them much more efectually than
the hand. The freer from water
you can get them the softer they will be.
Hang them out, if fine, Immediately;
if not, dry them in front of the fire. If
left to stand wet, the fannels invariably
shrink. The great mistake in washing
1iannels is, 1st, washing them in too hot
water-they should never be put into
hotter water than you can comfortably
bear your hand in; I'd, rinsing them in
cold water instead of good warm lath-
er; and Sd, letting them lie in the tub
instead of at once hanging them to dry.
Many persons object to fannels being
ironed. For my own part, I always run
a cool iron over all shirts, petticoats,
ETC., with gathers and plaits in, but not
others. Those that are to be ironed
fold up for an hour OF two when slightly
damp. The remainder I shake out
several times when drying, which
makes them softer, and takes out
any creases. I never use either soda or
any kind Of dry soap in washing
blankets or fannels, as it has a tendency
to discolor them; but use more than
twice as much blue as [ should do in
washing linen Or calico, though great
care must be taken to mix the blue
well in the lather, OF it will be streaky.
Colored fannels should always be
washed last, and be rinsed III plain,
warm lather without blue. Recently
we washed fourteen blankets, with the
use of a machine, following the direc-
tons given above, and they are beauti-
fully soft and white, not having shrunk
at all. I may add that blankets should
be taken down when half dry, we'll
shaken, and then hung up till quite
dry"

Seeding to Grass.

As the seeding to grass is costly
operation, and also an important one, it
should be done in the best manner. 1t
is not the best way to SOW the seed on
Fall grain and leave it to grow or die as
it may happen. 1t is the best way to
prepare the soil well and SOW the seed
by itself, and this may be done afte;. a,
grain crop is removed III July or early
in August. Glover thus sown with TIM
othy OF orchard grass will be strong
enough before the Winter to stand the
exposure, and will be equally forward
the next year as if it had been sown in
the Spring on the grain. The old
fashioned way Of seeding to grass and
clover should be abandoned and every
possible care be taken to get the soil in
the best condition for the seed, and Il
put the seed in in the best manner,
covering it with brush harrow and by
rolling.

Low Water In Wells Cause Of Typnoi
Fever.

DR.. Henry B. Baker, Secretary {
the Michigan State Board of Healt
has collected statistics throughout
State regarding the cause Of the gre
prevalence of typhoid fever during pa
of 1912. EIe finds a close RELATE
between the prevalence of this disea
and low water in wells. The theory
that when the water is low it is lie
pure, and the germs Of typhoid feve
develop more abundantly and become
more concentrated in the well. The
remedy would seem to be thorough fl
tration and other publication. Shall
low wells are equally as dangerous
where the water is low. Some fact
regarding the impurity of shallow we
water have been made known by til
analysis of the water in AIS Of them il
England. They certainly show, as a
rule, frightful state Decentralization.
the organic nitrogen to .O7O, in 100 900
shallow wells contains only .O53 organic
carbon, and .O03 organic nitrog!n
whilst a very bad specimen contains -
much as .93l organic carbon and .94C
organic nitrogen. The enormously
large proportion of the latter points
distinctly to animal contamination, and
this sample is, indeed, a great dea1
worse than any one of the seventy-siz
samples of land drainage from sewage
farms. In many places in our owl
country shallow wells are to be found
and there can be no doubt they are {
frequent cause of disease.

A FATAL Academia heart rendng
scene occurred on the 18th instant at the
st cam saw ard planning mills of James W.
sheetz in PowelIs Fort, caused by the
falling Of dry kiln and the instant kill
ing aud mangling Of the body Of a young
man by the name of Jacob A. Tobin'
formerly Of Page county. Mr.. Tobin was
at the time engaged in firing the kiln and
it seems was apprised of approaching
danger BY lii tie daughter Of Mr.. George
McClanahan's who had gone there for
molasses jug not more than 30 minutes
before the falling, and found him asleep,
woke him up and told him the kiln was
shaking, which it seems did not alarm
him. The fall was caused by the giving
away Of corner post which was standing
against hillside and near the door. IL
was over this post that he laid with
tremendous heaps of burning lumber over
him. His legs, arms and neck were bro
ken and chest fearfully mashed. Had 1t
not been for the timely aid Of some passers
by and the hands, &c, from the Messrs
shipes' mill he would have burned en-
tirely up. Two-thirds Of the seven thous-
and feet Of lumber which was in the kiln
was destroyed. 1t is said had the fall
been oBe hour sooner it would have killed
several of Mr.. McClanahan's children.
The deceased was a single man % years, :
months and % days old.
