FooD makes Blood and Blood makes
Beauty. Improper digestion of food neces-
sarily produces bad blood, resulting in .
feeling of fullness in the stomach, acidity,
heartburn, sick-headache, and other dys-
peptic symptoms. A closely confined life
causes indigestion, constipation, biliousness
andloss of appetite. To remove these trou-
bles there is no remedy equal to Prickly
Ash Bitters. 1t has been tried and proven
to be specific.

Keeping Ice In the South.

The ordinary Virginia ice-house con-
sists of a conical excavation in the
ground, say from sixteen to twenty
feet deep, the same widthat the top,
narrowing down TO six feet at the bot
tom. Here a barrel-shaped hole is dug
for drainage above this floor of rails
is laid, and the cone above is lined with
pine poles. ~
When Imoyed from the North to my
farm here, and remembered the ice
houses there, filled with thick ice nice
ly sawed, closely packed, and surround
ed with compact lining OF sawdust, |
looked at this hole in the ground with
some disfavor but as it was the only
ice. house to be had, / was compelled to
use it. Winter came, with ice from
two to three inches thick, and no use
for saw so, under the direction of
.'Uncle SAM an intelligent negro, we
broke the ice on the pond, drew it a.
shore, filled an ox-cart for there was
no sleighing) dumped it into the ice
house, and continued TO dump until the
house was full, and then covered the
ice with straw. The ice kept better
than | had expected, but not so we'll as
in northern ice-houses. The conical
shape of the pit kept the ice in COM
pact body, as when it settled it was ne
cessarily pressed into solid mass. [
found however, that the ice melted at
the sides faster than was desirable, and
l concluded that the heat rising from
the earth was more to be dreaded than
| that from the air above. Next year.
instead of cleaning out my ice-house, L
left the straw that was put on top OF
the ice at the bottom, putting the ice
on top, and of course covering the ice
with fresh straw. This practice prov
ed so satisfactory that it was continued
ever since, and it is now ten years or
more since 1 saw the bottom OF the
house, and the ice keeps much better
than formerly.-GEo. CLEDON, in the
American Agricultarist for October.

Why the Organ was Locked.

The other day q household was
made proud and happy by the intro.
duction of cabinet organ. The moth
er could play little, and as there was
a popular collection of music" includ.
ed in the purchase, she lost no time in
getting every note and stop into prac-
tice. The organ groaned and wheezed
and complained with the most aston
ishing of music, night and day, day
and night for a week. Then one
morning there was knock at the
door, and q little girl from the next
house shrilly said:
please, marin, mother wants to
know if you won't lend her your mu
sic book p
This was surprising request, in
asmuch as the woman next door wa!
known to be organizes. After gasp.
ing once or twice the amateur organ
ist asked
What does she want of it p
The child hadn't been loaded foI
this question, so she straightfor wardly
replied
Il don't know, Pm sure, only
heard mother tell father that if sht
had hold of the book for day or two
mebbe somebody could get rest
The woman softly shut the door il
the little girls face. and went ant
c'-efully locked the cabinet organ with
brass ley.

Looking for q Seat.

The London ChriStian World has the
following furnished it by a correspond
ent Possibly the incident may serve
to set some who live on this side of the
Atlantic thinking:
A workingman came to live in Lon
don, having obtained work of perma-
nent kind. From his youth he had
been accustomed to attend place of
worship. Not yet Christian, he still
loved house of prayer and resolved
not to neglect it. Accordingly, on the
first Sunday morning he went off in
search of place of worship, and, hav-
ing seen one with open doors, he went
in, and. as no one was about. he took
seat in one of the pews.4sJust as the
service began pew-openerg told him he
could not sit where he was, and did so
in such a Dna1ner that he left the build
ing in disgust. After a Sunday or two
he ventured into another sanctuary ,and
the same thing happened. n An interval
of abstention followed, and then for a
third time he went within, the sacred
precincts, and, alas a third time he
was turned out of his. sitting. For
twenty years he ceased to attend any
place of worship, and then curious
thing came to pass. sde;)
1t was on this wise; His child at
tended the Sunday-school of a popular
preacher, and what she said made him
resolve to try for seat once more.
In time we see tie craggy drops,
a. The craggy stones. made soft;
The slowest snail in time. we see
Doth creep and climb aloft.
And he, after twenty years, would try
again. p This was what happened. He
| entered the beautiful chapel, and to my
knowledge the chapel stewards there
are alert, polite, Iesnurcefnl men, one
of them. remarkably so. Well, for a
moment he was absent from his post,
| and the poor man sat id0wh in the end
seats--no pew doors on them-and in
the seat of very cantankerous person !
The chapel steward, glancing along the
aisle, saw the poor man had poached
on very strictly preserved seat. but
he resolved not to disturb him. No,he
watched for the-owner of thai sitting.
arrested his steps in his gentle way,
begged him not TO disturb the poor
wayfarer, and managed to pilot him in
to another seat. 1t was a great feat OF
Christian diplomacy, and had its re-
ward. That poor wayfaring man is
now a member of the church, and 1
heard the happy chapel steward tell the
story. 1r

The Good Old Times.

In olden times many pious indiyidu-
ais considered it good work TO set a
part part of their worldly wealth for
keeping the members of the congrega-
tion from sleeping during divine SER
vice. On the Seventeenth of April, ,1725,
John Rudge bequeathed to the parish
of Trysull, in Shropshire, twenty shill-
ings year, that poor man might be
employed to 60 about the church dur
ing the sermon and keep the people a
wake. A bequest of Richard Doyery,
of Farmcote, dated 1859, had in view
the payment of eight shillings in the
church at Clavery, Shropshire, for a
similar purpose. At Acton church, in
Chesire, about thirty years ago, one of
the church. -wardens used 10 60 round
in the church, during service, with a
huge wand in his hand, and if any of
the congregation were asleep.they were
instantly awakened by a tap OH the
head. At Dunchurch, in Warwick
shire, similar custom existed. A per-
son bearing q stout wand, shaped like
hay fork at the end stepped stealthily
up and down the naYe and aisles, and
whenever he saw an individual asleep,
he. touched him so effectually that the
spell was broken-this being sometimes
done by fitting the fork to the nape OF
the neck. A more play full method is
said to have been used in another
church. where the beadle went round
the edifice during service carrying a
long staff, at one end of which was a
fox's brush, and at the other knob.
With the former he gently tickled the
faces of the female sleepers, while on
the heads Of their male compeers he be-
slowed with the knob sensible rap.

Music's Soothing Power.

A minister named M. Cad a cir.
cult in Southern Indiana. The h~rse
he rode was a spirited animal, and
would not let a blacksmith shoe him.
The preacher was great revivalist and
singer of revival songs. A smith in
the county seat, the centre of the cir.
cult, learning that the preachers horse
would not be shod, meeting the dlyine
one day, said
IF you'll bring that horse to my shop
tomorrow, and follow my instructions,
I'll shoe him all around, and it won't
cost you cent
Accordingly the preacher was on
time at the smith s shop with his refrac'
tory steed, and after the animal had
been divested Of saddle, blankets, and
all but the bride, the smith SAID:
Now, bold your horse by the rein,
close to the bride bit, and sing one OF
your liveliest camp-meeting songs, and
when that is ended strike up another,
and keep on singing until finish shoe
ing the horse
The preacher obeyed, and. to the as

saloons of New York city take in
1920, 900 per day, or S75,OO0,OOO per
