HANGING THE MEDICINE.

A correspondent of Babyhood suggests
good plan for the disposition of the
medicine chest: We were at first much
puzzled as to safe place for keeping the
medicines, which collect so rapidly where
children are about, out of the reach of
prying little fingers, out of the way of
books or clothing, which can be so easily
soiled by coming in contact with sticky
bottle or having a bottle upset upon
them, and yet all together and where they
could be easily gotten at. The plan
struck upon, which has perfectly answer
ed our needs so far, was to have set of
hanging shelves made, with solid board
back, and front door consisting of a
single pane of glass and opening on
hinges at the bottom, the whole hung bv
strong cord or picture frame wire from
two staples in the wall. Bottles are new
er knocked down now as in stumbling
against table. The bottles are in plain
view and can be conveniently gotten by
older people, while quite beyond the am
bilious efforts of the little ones. Besides
the mouths of the bottles are now dust
free. The door should hinge at the bot
tom, as any other position will necessi-
tate being supported with one hand or
pushing the case out of plumb. The case
should be made somewhat heavy, or may
be tackled through the back to the wall.
1t cost us, material and all one dollar
The case is fifteen inches long by twenty
broad, and five inches deep. and has three
shelves

PROFITS IN PREPARED FOOD.

Cutting the fodder has the effect of
reducing the muscular work of the cow
Every movement of the cows muscles,
every motion of the lungs as the animal
breathes, consumes some of the muscular
tissue and requires some food to repair
the waste. Every digestive function is
also carried on at some cost of substance
for the repair of which food is required.
The proper preparation of the food, then.
is saving of labor for the COW, and a
saving of food for the owner. Thus, the
grain food should be ground as finely as
possible, and after being mixed with the
cut and moistened fodder. is eaten with
less exertiOn, and is digested with the
greatest ease. More of it. too, is digest
ed, because of the fine condition of 1t, by
which it is more completely subjected to
mouth (the saliva), stomach and intes-
tines. AS the fat and oil of the food
exist in exceedingly fine particles dis
tributed in the cellular tissue, the thor
ouSn Srlnulng ana tne perfect mastlca-
ton of it tend to its most economical dis
position in the body of the animal.
The results of feeding vary with cir
cumstances. The character and quality
of the heritage vary, and necessarily, as
grass is the basis of cows feed, any
variation in this will affect the result of
the grain feeding and make some moditi-
cation necessary. To observe the effect
of feeding, some tests will be found use
full. a dairyman should be very inquisi-
tive and observant, for his profit depends
upon it. He should count, measure OF
weigh everything; and the quantity OF
food given, its cost and results, should
all be carefully noted.-( American Ag'
riculture.

ABOUT BREAKFAST.

Whenever possible, says orrespond-
ent of Good Housekeeping. begin your
breakfast with fresh fruit. When that is
not attainable use the canned or dried
fruit. Then follows one or the other of
the various cereals, oatmeal, hominy rice,
etc, but care must be taken that any one
of these does not pail on the taste. For
students and brain-workers fresh eggs or
fish is the best morning meal, while la
borers and mechanics require more ami
mai food with their bread and butter.
Never put pastry of any kind on the
breakfast table. Fresh milk or water
are the best drinks, though coffee, if TAX
en- at all, should always be at breakfast
rather than in the evening. Pieces of
bread cut round, toasted and arranged
upon platter with a spoonful of delicate
scrambled eggs on each piece is nice
breakfast dish. Toasted crackers with a
sauce of boiled milk, seasoned and thick
ened with grated cheese. makes pleas
ant variation, and stewed, fried or roasted
potatoes are served with the beefsteak

SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS.

The following seasonable paragraphs
are from correspondence in Farm and
Home: never saw borer in the live
sound bark of an apple tree. In my ex-
perience the borer never attacks the tree
until the sun has killed the bark on the
southwest side. Then the borer goes to
work on the dead bark. lean all my
trees somewhat to the southwest, so that
the sun won't kill them. It's not the Dor
ers that hurt our trees so much as it is
the sun, and if you keep the southwest
sun from striking the trees you will have
little trouble with borers.
| have made water express in this
way: Two old axle-trees from buggy
were bent so as to fit around 4O-gallor
barrel, wheels were put on, and shafts
added and bolted to the aXle-tree so as
to use either hand or horse power. The
tracks of the wheels are four feet apart
and by letting the barrel swing within
six inches of the ground it is very con
venient to handle. find it very usefu
in hauling water for setting out plants OIL
other purposes, and for spraying frui
trees with poisoned solutions to kill in
sects. II is very handy.

Sheep 0nterest.
DOESN'T BELIEVE IN DOCKING.

A subscriber who does not believe in
docking lambs advances some new ideas
on the subject, as follows: "Cutting off
the tail is an unnatural practice, and in
lures the whole constitution of the sheep.
1t is one of the prominent causes of foot
rot and causes grub in the head. The
tail is wanted to protect the sheep. Sheep
are foul and unclean without the tail to
protect them. | have abandoned the
practice of docking, and spectators who
examine my sheep see that those with
tails on are clean and that those which
haye been deprived of their tails are foul.
Districts that do not dock their sheep
never have foot rot or grub in the head.
have examined sheep for twenty years,
and find all this to be true. One man in
this county who had 500 sheep never had
diseases in his flock and never locked his
lambs, while neighbors who did dock had
unsound sheep" Has any one else made
similar observations respecting the re-
suits of docking :-[Stockman.

You ask me why always insist on
being my own lawyer, and why have a
general repugnance for lawyers. 1t is
Just this: The mass of mankind are help
less when they get mixed up in a law
suit, and the lawyer, knowing this, takes
advantage of the circumstances and the
laws, too, are admirably adapted to aid
the lawyer in preying upon the rest of
mankind. When an estate Is to be par
titioned the law gives the lawyer his per-
centage, sometimes a very large sum,
depending upon the size Of the estate.
When divorce suit is to be commenced
the husband is always decreed to pay the
lawyer who defends the wife.
If receiver Is appointed, the receiver
must have lawyer, and the court gives
the lawyer a percentage of the assets.
The same rule applies to assignments and
assignees. If a man is to be declared in
sane, the court appoints lawyer amicus
curia, and he must be paid out Of the
property of the insane person. Why,
the whole vocation of a lawyer is to
divide up and appropriate other peoples
property, and they do It with a nonchaI-
ance that is simply amazing. Well,
have made up my mind that while they
may get some Of my property after an
dead, they never will get any of it while
l am alive. William Zeppenfeld ir

CARE OE HARNESSES.

There is no economy in buying cheap
harnesses. They should be well made of
the best stock Inferior material and inn
perfect workman ship may cause a break
down, involving much more than the cost
of a good harness. The harness should
be adapted to the work required of it.
The harness should be washed with
water and soap at least three times a
year, and oiled once. After washing off
the dust and sweat with clear water,
plenty of soap on sponge, rub well
over the harness and let it dry, after
which rub with flannel cloth. This
will keep it soft for long time. As it
becomes rusty, rub it well with black
harness oil, let it dry, and polish with a
flannel cloth. Have the harness well
fitted to the horse so that no part will
chafe. Most cases of runaway horses or
break-downs may be traced to lack of
care in examining the harness or buggy
before starting. If collar is used, have
it well scraped and soft before putting
it on. Do not use an overhead check
rein, or upper jaw bit, as they are cruel
and do not add to the appearance of the
horse If a check rein is used at all,
have side-bearing rein, with gag run
ners low down on the throat latch and
only check tight enough to hold the
horse up if it should stumble. If the
horse has not stylish way of holding
up its head, checking up will not help
the matter.
After the horse is harnessed, see that
every strap, after being buckled, is put
in the loop. The belly bands should
only be tight enough to keep the back
pad to the horses back, and not allow
the shafts to jump up and down. See
that nothing is too tight. Leave breech
ing so that you can run your hand dowr
easily. Never leave the stable without 6
whip. Keep it in the socket until it i.
wanted, and when you use it do so il
earnest, and put it back. Don't keeI

time as it only annoys and irritates him

Newly set fruit trees should have the
ground about them kept clean and mel
low.
Tomato vines disposed to grow too
thick should be cut and trimmed accord
ingly.
Horticulture is taught in the common
schools of Germany. The pupils are re-
CURED to bud, graft, transplant, plant
seeds, ETC., and they are given instruc-
tons on the subject of plant growth,
adaptation of varieties to soil, eli
mate, etc.
The moment any kind of manure begins
to ferment, no matter where, it gives off
some of its substance in the form of gas !;
but if the fermentation should occur
within the soil it would he gradual. and
the products of decay could be utilized
by the neighboring plants. Besides,
fresh manure, in fermentng within the
soil, will act upon the soil advantageous
ly in several ways. 1t will not only play
the part of ferment, and so tend to de-
compose the inert nitrogen compounds of
the humus, but the products of its de-
composition will act as disintegrating
agents upon the insoluble portions of the

Injurious to the Eyesight.

Riding upon the elevated roads is said
to be injurious to the eyesight With
each passing train a quantity of dust and
cinders Is blown through the cars when
windows or doors are open, and also a
far more dangerous form Of flying par

the rails. The habit OF looking out of
the window, which so many indulge in,
Is also deieterious The objects seen are
80 near, and so rapidly passed. that the
constant change is very trying to the

railroads the case is different, as the OBJ
jects seen are comparatively distant and
are, therefore within range Of vision for

THE ELDER BUSH A PREVENTIVE

1t is not known to many persons that
the common elder bush of our country is
a great safeguard against the devasta-
tons of insects. If any one will notice
it will be found that worms or insects
never touch the elder. Last year we
scattered the leaves of the elder over the
cabbages, cucumbers, squashes and other
plants in the kitchen garden that were
subject to the ravages of insects, and II
worked effectually. One of the neighbor
women told me that she tried putting
branches of the elder through the plum

Our Recent Election,

Rumors are in the air to the effect that the
recent election for License" or "No License
is illegal because less than an alleged nlajori
ty OF the whole voting population voted fol
mo License"
Some OF our citizens, we believe, are exer
cised because of the report. Such citizens
may possess their souls in patience. No con.
test for any such alleged reason can hold
good.
In the first place the law contemplated no
such requirement that majority Of all the
voters should be cast for either side, but that
q majority Of those voting should decide the
matter.
In the next place, there is no known meth
cd under the sun Of ascertaining the number
OF registered voters who are qualified to vote
to-day. Many citizens have changed theiI
places Of residence since they registered. AL
such are not now qualified voters"
Owing to the fact that large number o
white and colored men have not registered
and owing to the many changes of domicile
within the last four years. 1t is fair to pre-
sumo, II the law is strictly enforced, that
there are not over twenty-five hundred voters
in this county-if so many.
At the last general election q number less
than sixteen hundred votes were polled. Did
anybody contest that election? If not, why
not7 Simply because there was no ground
for contest.
But, suppose the election was illegal
What then, This vast majority of the peo
pie would demand Of their Legislators the
re-enactment of the law under which they
voted, and they would most certainly carry
their point again. The people themselves
seem determined to put stop to tho IL
censes, and therein lies the strength of the
prohibitlonists.

Bishop or PoOple /?

Bishop Howe has written O letter to the
"Dear Brethren" whose wishes he utterly dis
regarded at the late Diocesan Convention. In
our opinion, that letter does nothing to heal
the differences, and it Is clear to us, that he
sees serious consequences that will result to
the church from his course. Is the Bishop the
church, or are the laity composing the men,
bership of the parishes, the church? The
Bishop, among other things. says:
"There can be no convention, as you are
to shd sdepaes are pm sen
Q0) churches, duly qualified to represent said
churches In diocesan convention. Should we
fail, therefore, OF securing the necessary quo
rum at Anderson, and for the reason Of our
differences, feel 1t my duty to forewarn you
that in my judgment the consequences OF
such non-attendance of my brethren CT the
laity may prove disastrous TO the well being
Of the diocese, already somewhat para'yzed
in its mission work and higher spiritual In
terests. We cannot, my dear friends, much
longer endure the strain Of divided counsels
and alienated hearts. If the present state of
things continue fear the result will be In the
near future, vacant rectories, closed churches,
suspended and abandoned missions. The
existing circumstances, that you will not sit
With them In convention except upon the hu-
initiation Of their ORDER"
We see in the Columbia Register mention OF
a rumor that Bishop Howe contemplates re-
signing, II he Is not sustained by the church,
and that he will return to his former homo in
Massachusetts,.
The action Of the Bishop. in conducting the
late Diocesan Convention, so as to cause a
withdrawal Of a majority of the white laity.
and the recent united effort Of the clergy in
making appeals for money with which to es-
tablish a richer College than any in the State,
which should be for the exclusive benefit OF
the negroes is not distinctly understood by
all our people.
