Care of Milk Cows.

When cows are first turned to
grass in the spring, If feed is
abundant, they ought to be allow
ed in the pasture but a few hours
each day for several days; in a
word, the change Of TODD should
be gradual. Carelessness on this
really important point has resulted
often in serious consequences.
TO the oft repeated question,
"Shall grain he ted 10 cows in sum.
mer p the general answer is, ono,
not il the animals have an abund
ance OF good grass" The most
natural, and at the same time
healthful, food for milk COWS in
summer is the green grass of a
good pasture. When shorts and
bran are Obtainable at cheap rates,
aud grass begins to fail, these may
be used TO excellent effect 10 sup
plementing the grass. Mingled
with the hay and fed to cOTs, the
milk gives a larger percentage OF
cream, while the quantity of milk
is also increased.
It often happens that when cows
are giving an extra quantity OF
milk they incline to become thir
and weak. This condition should
be prevented by the judicious use
of concentrated food. The strength
of the animal must be kept up al
all times for best results.

An Invalid s Appetite.

In the matter of food it is i'm
portant to please the eye of inva'
lids. They should eat from deli
cate china and glass. One expert
nurse always serves beef-tea and
milk in wine glass one of the
thin, bell shaped glasses, that hold
more than they look to hold. n
sick person will turn away from a
bowl of soup, and be pleased with
a pretty cupful. Sick children, es
pecially, are amused and pleased
with the color and pattern ofthe
cups and dishes, and there is a
trace of the fretful child III every
invalid. There is something very
tempting in a small quantity. 1t
does not tax the eye, Therefore
always present just as little as you
Judge the invalid wants to see. A
coarse, white dinner plate heaped
with food, will take away all appe-
tite, while a small plate or saucer,
especially if it Is a pretty, dainty
one will be successfully cleared. A
mauve saucer or a pink plate will
coax a feverish patient to eat rice
pudding or orange cream, or few
grapes, when all other arts have
failed. There seems to be an ap-
petite of the eyes as we'll as the
stomach, and it must not be offend
ed. Very often invalids are
disincllned to the exertion of lift
ing the hand to partske Of nOur-
ishing drink. Let them have their
way. a bent glass tube, sold for
FIVE cents at the apothecary's, is
signal FOR extreme illness or low.
ness, except that the head may
rest low. 1t simply means comfort,
and that the invalid need not be
disturbed, in a sick headache or
extreme fatigue, but can take the
beverage provided without change
of position. The art of comfort is
not cure, but it goes a great way
toward it. When the nerves are
fretted, the body has a far better
chance of recuperating.

Life Insurance as a Delicate Gift.

There are many things in regard
to which a man does well to con.
suit his wife before maturing his
plans or arriving at a conclusion.-
la choosing house, for instance,
and in the various arrangements
that affect household life, h e
should have a leading share in the
necessary deliberations. Life in.
surance, however, in its primary
significance, is Off different nature.
1t is a gift from the husband to the
wife. When man is satisfied that
in bis situation it furnishes the best
means within his reach of fulfilling
in her behalf those obligations that
relate to her welfare in the event of
bis removal from her by death,
then he should at once secure for
her the boon. Her first knowledge
of his thoughtful act may well come
with the presentation. In planning
gifts for Christmas, or for birth
day, one takes counsel with bis sen.
sibilIties alone. If he consults any
other person it certainly is not the
one to whom the present is to go.
Life insurance comes into this class.
If one with whom o good agent has
labored, or upon whom good infiu.
ences from the scheme itself have
made an impression, is in doubt on
any point, he may properly confer
with intelligent friends. He should
remember, however, that delays are
dangerous, and act at once on the
promptings of love guided by good
Judgment. 10 consult his wife on
the matter would place her in a
delicate position. She knows, of
course, the liabilities that attend
her; that she might be left alone
with little ones depending on her
care, and from that very cause be
disabled for vigorous action in the
struggle for existence. Her good
sense teaches her the desirableness
OF some safeguard against the ills
of such a condition. Yet she would
shrink from urging life insurance,
either as her own right or his duty.
1t is for the husband to appreciate
her position in this respect, and led
by affection and thoughtful care,
procure life insurance that will re-
lieve anxiety, his as well as hers
Her grateful loye will be his imme.
date reward. Critic.
