Many a woman Is robbed of those charms
which the gentler sex value so highly, and
made old before her time by functional irregu-
larities. To such the bloom of youth may be
restored by the use of a remedy which has
stood the test of time and which is to-day ac-
knowledged to be without an equal as cure
for all female weaknesses--Dr. Pierce's "Fa-
yorite Prescription" BY all druggists.

Interesting Facts About Beets.

At the New York Experiment Station
were tested eleven so-called varieties of
garden beet, one of chard. fourteen of
mangel murzel and eleven of sugar beet.
The seeds were planted April "a, in rows
ten feet long; two rows each of the gar
den beets and chards and one of the
msngels and sugar beets.
The soil was manured with a moderate
application of stable manure. The rows
of garden beets and chards were twenty
one inches apart and those of the mangels
and sugar beet twice that distance, or
three and half feet apart. The plants
were thinned to six inches apart in the
row. A table, noting the results given
in the report of this experiment, shows
that the average height of roots is de-
cidedly less in the garden beet than in
the sugar beet or mangel, and that in the
Vilmorin's improved sugar beet, which is
noted for its sugar, the root averagesless
in weight than in the other varieties of
sugar beet. In the beet, richness in flavor
and in sugar, accompany small size;
hence, in choosing for table use, one
should not necessarily select the most
productive variety.
1t was noted that the more depressed
the root, or in other words the f1atter it
is, the more rapid is it's development.
This rule seemed also to apply to other
garden roots as we'll as to onions.
By planting several samples of seed
season, was learned the fact that the va
rieties of this vegetable cross-fertillze by
natural agencies, and hence cannot be
kept pure except when grown separated
some distance from each other. .-Nep
York World.
Management of Heavy Sod Land.
The popular idea about an old sod is
that it is necessarily rich. If the old sod
is subject to overflow, or has not been so
heavily pastured as to prevent it from
thickening up, this estimate of fertility
may prove correct. But any one who
expects immediate results from it will
very probably be disappointed. 1t is
only the most enduring grasses that sur
vive in an old pasture, and when the field
is plowed there ensues struggle for life
that battles the best efforts of the farmer
to repress. The common blue grass is
first cousin to quack, and though it be
turned to the bottom of the furrow, its
thread-like roots will send up shoots to
the surface, and unless vigorously cult
waited the field will soon be as green as
before plowing.
Wherever possible, an old sod should
be plowcd in the fall, so that part of the
decomposition of it's roots may occur in
winter while they are dormant. The
heavy soil turned up will be worked by
frost into fine tilth by springtime.
And if it has been done in the
fall there is a further advantage
in top!dressing with manure, which will
thus fertilize the seed bed instead Of
being buried at the bottom of the fur
row. There is no danger that this extra
surface fertility will make grass roots
more vigorously. The surface sown weeds
will indeed be stronger for it, but they
are easily kept down. The decomposing
manure will furnish heat and help to rot

by the score both at the House of Repre-
eentatives and at Wizards Hotel, where be
IL located They were numerous at first,
but lately they became lnnumerabe and IA
Mr.. Lawler tninks intolerGb!e. The hou
orable member from Chicago has begul to
suspect that it is due TO conspiracy on tn
part of his brother members that the Wo
men from al parts OF the country who come
20 Washington to get something from the
Government for themselves Or their sisters,
aunts, husbands aud other dependent re-
latives, nave all aocked 10 him. At first lie
received thea al! with respectful interest
and even did what his influence could for
them. But lie has called u halt to the whole
performance. He finds that he has some
thing else 20 do besides spending his days
aud nights III trying TO get som 3thing from
Tie Government TOR these women, who
leave 10 stone unturned to get the 2ress
of somebody who lived in Chicago within
the last twenty five years go as to get hold
on the Congressman. Being able TO stand
it no longer, he issued an order the otaer
day to the door-keepcr Of the House that he
would see 40 more and receive no
more women'a cards Yesterday il
happened that Mrs. Lawlcr herself
Franks wife, went up TO the House 10 Gail
on her husband. She told the doorkeeper
she wanted to see Mr.. Lawler bnt vas in
formed that NJ l.. Law!cr would seq 10 lad

Mrs. Lawler." "Oh nonsense said the
messenger, that's too thin you eau! worl,

was useless Mrs. Lawer had to 20 up TO
the gallery: and it was half an hour before
her demonstrations there attracted the at
tention of her husband on the floor.
