Two Hundred Dollars in Gold.

We are authorized by advice received
from [. S. Johnson & Co., Boston, to say
that they have for years offered poultry
raisers premiums payable in gold coin,
for the best results obtained from using
Sheridan's Powder to make hens lay. Their
object has been to satisfy themselves be-
yond the shadow of doubt that the claim
made by them that Nothing on earth will
make hens lay like Sherdans Powder"
was positively true. The hundreds of tes-
timonials sent them from people who have
used the Powder, prove the statement; so
that it seems folly to again offer premiums
but so many persons, especially women
who kept few hens, have made such
good showing in former trials, and been
beaten by some one else by slight frac-
ton in average. that in justice they ought
to have another trial. johnson & Co. have
devised plan this year, to overcome that
trouble in a measure, by offering twice as
much cash and six times as much Gold
Coin Premiums as last year. The larger
premium is 5000. 1t is well worth trying
for. If you miss that there are twenty three
more chances for some other premium.
But supposing competitor did not get any
premium, they would still have the satisfac-
ton of getting lot of eggs to sell at a good
round price. The retail price for eggs in
Boston and New York last year reached as
high as fifty to sixty cents per dozen. 1t

sell lOr even Ten cents. one OF Jne COM
petitors last year wrote as follows: 81 am

ton Powder to poultry raisers generally

BEAUTIES OF CORAL.


A Manufacturing Jeweler Extols Its Bril-
liancy and Effects.
II have often been struck by the al
most complete absence of coral from
the show windows of our jewellers. and
am somewhat at q loss to account for
its being SO little worn nowadays. l
can not help thinking that if more
coral jewelry were kept in stock by
jewellers it would soon become quite
fashionable. for it is becoming to near
ly every body.
'The brilliancy of coral makes the
skin look winter by contrast. 1t har-
monies beautifully with dark hair.
while its appearance in conjunction
with blonde tresses is very agreeable.
"Some exceedingly beautiful effects
are produced by a combination of coral
and gold. the material being one which
offers the artistic jeweler unlimited
scope for the exercise of his taste and
ability.
1--WE are told that the Empress Jo-
sephine and later the Empress Eugene
were particularly fond of coral orna-
ments, the manufacture of which was
at one time prominent industry in
France.
''The ladies of Russia and both sexes
among the Oriental nations prefer coral
to many precious stones. The Rus
slams have prediction for the round
coral. which is. however. the coarser
variety; while the Chinese will have
none but the pink. The nabobs of In
dia decorate the interior of their dwell
ings with large pieces of coral beauti-
fully carved and polished. for which
they often pay enormous prices. Coral
ornaments are also held in high esteem
by the dusky beauties of Africa. who
find that they wonderfully tighten up
the effect produced by their dark skins.
Like all fashions in gems that of
wearing coral has had many ups and
downs. The taste for it is almost uni
versal. and when it has been in dis
favor in one part of the world it has
generally been the rage somewhere
else. Its now quite long time since
there has been any very pronounced
taste for coral jewelry in this country,
and therefore shouldn't be surprised
if before long it should become quite
fashionable again. "-Jewe,ers' Weekly.
