Tive Suggestions of Interest to Those Az

Tive Suggestions of Interest to Those Az
fileted with the Ailment.
A teacher in Tennessee. who has
long suffered from headache. and has
tried physicians and remedies with
only temporary relief, asks our advice
AS to diet and manner of living. He
has a good appetite and is otherwise
apparently well.
We may premise that a headache
may be due to one of many causes, or
to several causes acting together. A
remedy suited to one case may be
harmful in another. Nor can any case
be cured without the removal of the
cause Without some knowledge of
the habits, the temperament, the phys
ical tendencies and the general sur
rOundings of a sufferer, it is impOssi-
bic to mark out any scheme of diet
adapted to particular case. But any
one who is an intelligent observer of
himself, and is possessed of a strong
will, can, probably, treat himself as
successfully as any ordinary physician
can treat him. We will address our
correspondent directly, but the advice,
with the necessary notifications, will
do for others:
1. You are aware that vigorous out
door exercise is essential to sound
health in all persons, and especially so
in the case of a brain-wOrker, under
the peculiar strain of a schoOl-rOOm.
You need at the minimum, two hours
a day of such exercise. Perhaps with
your Southern habits and conveniences,
horseback riding might proftably
interchange with rapid, CHEEKY walk
ing.
2. You are equally aware that at
least eight hours of solid sleep are
still more essential-sleep in a we'll
ventilated, sun-disinfected room.
8. You may not be aware, but it is
true, that q biliousness y and indiges-
ton are generally due far more to
over-eating or undertaking than to
the kinds of food eaten. See if you
can trace a connection between the
quality Of your food and your distress
ing symptoms. Lessen it below the
average of the past, and note whether
the tendency to headache lessons with
it. If it does, you are on the right
track. If not, try the effect of more
frequent and abundant meals.
4. Constipation fills the blood with
poisOns that affect the brain. Let this
be remedied, if possible, by your food.
Allure white bread, and use bread
made from g entire wheat -four" or
mush from oatmeal or wheat germ
meal" with a free addition of fruit.
5. Notice whether any particular
article of food positively disagrees
with youth itself, in the mode of
cooking it, or in the quantity eaten
and govern yourself accordingly.
Make trial of these suggestions for
three months and note the result

To Keep Cut Flowers Fresh.

A queer way to keep a bouquet Of
flowers fresh, but very striking and
effective one, is thus described: In
vessel of water place plate, and on
this stand a bouquet of flowers,
weighted at the bottom so as to stand
upright. This being done, the bou-
uuet is covered with bell glass, the
rim of which ought to fit exactly the
fat part of the plate; the bell glass
should be entirely filed with water
and without the least air bubble.
Then raise altogether, bell glass plate
and bouquet and place on table,
leaving on the plate around the base
of the bell glass little water to keep
the air from entering. The flowers in
this situation viii be preserved in all
their freshness for several weeks, and
their beauty is increased by a great
number of bubbles of gas produced by
the respiration of the leaves, and
which attach themselves to the leaves,
looking like pearls. The edge of the
plate and the water it contains should
be concealed by a light bed Of moss in
which are set some flowers. A bou-
quet thus arranged produces a charm
ing effect, especially in the evening. -

A Useful Study That Is Well Worthy OF
Universal Attention.

A Useful Study That Is Well Worthy of
Universal Attention.
Nature seems to forbid these in the
vegetable world, as distinctly as
reason, experience and sacred law join
with her to forbid them in our own
world. DR.. Asa Gray, during his life,
poured light on the many singular con-
trivances by which cross-fertilization
is provided for among plants, and he
does not hide his light under bushel,
but gives illustrations and explana-
tions so clear as to be plainly under
standable with the aid of the very
slightest acquaintance with botany.
This useful study is well worthy of at
tentiOn, if only to afford a better ap-
probation of the mysteries and wonders
of plant life, which are really as inter
esting as an Arabian Nights tale. 1t
is obviously an intent of the Creator
that the plants that meet US every
where, and as to which we are continu-
ally asking, What are they for?'
should not merely be trampled under
foot, but should be made subject to ex-
animation. They are, like the rain
bow, tokens of promise, of hope, Of
resurrection and of brighter, happier
world.
Among the expeditions which DIR.
Gray gives of Mr.. Darwin's deductions
from his wonderful stores of observed
facts and test experiments, the COM
parsons ingeniously made between
the Seeding plants of exactly equal
vigor and age, set in the same pot and
same soil; one self or close-fertilized,
and the other fortified by pollen from
a distant plant-are especially notable.
The difference in growth was always
in favor of the latter; and, in many
cases so great, that it seems to prom
Use wonders in the way of improving
varieties. All of US who are jewellers
in the country, know that wheat does
not sport into varieties or mix so free
as Indian corn. The blossom of wheat
has been said by experienced hybrid
lists to be fortified before l. leaves
the sheath, So that, in the case of this
valuable grain, mans aid seems to be
wanted. not only through all the many
perils and risks of it's growth in the
fields, but for the infusion of vigor in
to the seed through a selection and
conveyance of a select and non-related
pollen. We hear of but few cross
breeders who have made wheat a sue
cessful subject of their useful skill.
Yet it is perhaps the plant, above all
others in temperate chimes, which
promises the greatest results and the
most widespread advantages from ef-
forts in this line,-RurGl NeaO Yorker.

COARSE POTTERY.
How Crooks, jugs and Similar Articles 4
Made.

How Crooks, Jugs and Similar Articles Are
Made.
The base of materials for all kinds
of pottery is clay, and the quality of
the product depends mainly on the
kind of clay used and the ingredients
with which it is mixed. Bricks are
made of common blue, brown or red
clay, mixed with varying proportions
of sand. Drain tile is made of common
plastic clay, the pipes being nodded
by pressing the material between a
solid cylindrical cone, and hollow
external cylinder. In making earthen
crooks or jars the CLAW is first
mOistened into a plastic mass which
can be nodded by the hand, and then
is worked up in what is called pug
mill. A vertical shaft armed with
knives placed with the planes
of their blades in spiral
direction, is made to revoive within
q slant cylinder having a funnel
shaped top. There are knives also
ON the outside of the cylinder, and by
the action of both sets the mOistened
clay is worked into a smooth mass,
and pushed down to the bottom and
through a rectangular Orifce on the
side of the cylinder. 1t is then cut
into slices, the wOrkmen removing as
he does so all stones and other solid
substances. 1t is then ready for the
lathe or ''potter's wheel" This is one
of the most ancient machines known,
having been used in Egypt probably
six thousand years ago. 1t is simply
lathe turned by the motion of a
wheel. The clay is placed on the lathe
and it's rapid revolving movement aids
the worker in shaping it to its right
form. Thus, the workman throws
small quantity of plastic clay with
smart blow upon the head of the lathe,
and then with his hands which he
keeps moist by dipping them into a
bowl of water conveniently near, he.
presses the mass into a cOnical shape.
Then fiattening the top, he gradually
works his hand into the inside of the
mass, and meanwhile keeping his
other hand on the outside, he works it
into the form of a jar or crock, and by
means of some simple tools of wood or
leather, the shape is rendered perfect.
1t is then ready to be fired, then

BEES ZOE FARMERS.
A Few Hints for Those Who Contemplate
Purchasing a Few Colonies.

Purchasing a Few Colonies.
The farmer, above all others, ought
to keep a few bees. He need not keep
enough of them to make it burden
or part of his business to care for
them, but enough to supply his own
table with honey-the purest sweet
there is. It is always handy to have
in the house. If one has never kept
bees, he will be unwise to go into bee
keeping rashly or extensively. A few
hints that may help some who are
thinking of getting bees are given by
Mrs. /. Harrison;
1t is poor policy for beginners to
purchase bees in boxes and barrels, as
transferring is not the best kind of
work for a novice. Better buy good
colony or two, not more, of Italians in
a movable-frame hive. Every hive in
an apiary should be exactly alike, so
that every cover. frame etc, can be
mixed up and all fit when put together.
Better choose a hive first, and not get
half a dozen different ones to see
which is preferable
Success in bee-culture is attained
only by the faithful performance of
many little items, Some persons
never have any luck" with bees.
Whya One year the moths destroyed
them and another season the swarms
left while the hives were being
made ready, washed with apple-tree
leaves and salt. A person who expects
to make a success in bee culture must
study their lessons we'll, learn the
habits of these industrious insects and
their wants, and supply them. Last
year the honey crop was an almost COM
plete failure, owing to the severe
drought, and many colonies this spring
had not days ration ahead. Let
there be long continued cold storm,
and bees in this condition must starve
Their owner must know their condi-
ton, and this is one of the good things
of the movable-frame hive. Bees con-
sumo stores very fast in the spring,
because of the rearing so much brood
Scientists tell us that an insect in it's
larvae state consumes more food than
during the remainder of its life. If a
colony is short of honey, the best way
to supply it is to remove as quietly as
possible to an empty frame, and insert
full one in its place. Where no
frames of honey are obtainable, feed
syrup made of any kind of sugar when
bees are flying. Little wooden butter
dishes make good feeders, as bees
cling to their sides and never drown as
they do in glass or earthenware, unless
flied with cut straw or shavings.-
