Advantages Incident to the Good Ap-
 pearance of Farm.
 It can hardly be realized by farm CT who has never tried the plan oi keeping every thing about his farm in repair, and the yards and fields in neat order, what an improvement can be made in tho attract veness of a place in this way. Not only will this attention to the appearance of farm be source of qualification to those who occupy it, but it will add money value by giving much more favora- ble impression to those who see it. Visitors or passers-by from distance remember such a place, and their recollection of it being pleasant, they mention it to others. The sale of farm at good price has often been brought about in this way.
 The difference in value is more than one would suppose in the eyes of purchaser, when he compares a farm where all is kept tidy and neat with one where neglect is every where manifest. The farms may have the same number of acres, and the build ines on the neglected one may have or.iUinallv cost more than those on the other, perhaps were erected some ume later, but for all that the buyer of taste is attracted by the well-cared-for place, and the other suffers much more by compar1son than the value of the time and money required 10 secure the diff ference in the appearance ot the two farms.
 Where attention is given to repairs promptly. the expense is lrhlng, and the time required 10 keep the yards about the buildings in neat order IS very little if the work is not neglected but IS done before it accumulates. Perhaps nothing detracts from the appearance of a farm more then fences and gates out of repair, saying nothing of the danger of loss and dam- age by the escape of the owner stock or the encroachments of that belong inc to his neighbors. Annoyance and loss from this cause can be easily ana cheaply prevented py ProlilP' "''o"' ton

EDUCATING THE BLIND.
The System Employed m a Leadin
 American Institution.

The System Employed m a Leadin
 American Institution.
 Mir William S. Phillips, who has been connected for many years with the Illinois Institution for the Blind, at Jacksonville, has kindly furnished the following information on the sub- ject: In most schools for the blind books in raised print are used. The touch of blind persons h generally so acute that they learn their letters as soon as seeing children. and prog ress in their work rapidly. The work in a school is about equal 10 the oridary high school course. Pupils are classified as in other schools. But persons who become bind at the age of twenty, for instance. must begin with the alphabet as little children do. They learn the alphabet and pass on to where their attainments would place them. Writing is taught by tracing with a pencil letters sunk into stiff; ;card. The form of the letters is soon learned. and some very creditable writing is done in this way. This manner of writing can be read by seeing person only. The point systems, B rallies and Waits, are used by blind persons 10 communicate with each other The Wait system is more generally used in this country. The use of the typewriter is being taught in the Illinois Institution for the Bind. This may open a new field. The typewriter used IS soon mastered. anl some excellent work has been done. Music plays an important part in their education. Music is read to the pupil, who writes it Tn Braille or Wait sys- tenn. The music is studied by the pupil at the instrument until it is memorized. Correct time and tune they insist upon. No class of people enjoy music more thoroughly and critically than the blind. The course in music at the Illinois Institution fo1 the Blind is quite broad. Opportu- mites are offered for orchestral study, piano and pipe organ, vocal culture, aud thorough knowledge of harmony composition, etc Many useful trade! are taught in mechanical departments designed 10 make blind men self-sup porting. The main end 10 be sough in the elucalion of the blind is to fl them 10 compete in as many ways a possible with the more fortunate wht can see, and take them out of thei dcspondency and give them a worthy object to accomplish in life. - Chicagt lnter- Ocean

The Ethereal Month of March.

An observant metropolitan barber says that he can tell one's physical condition by the state of the hair!
 The Bible tells us that with his hair gone Samson lost his strength. The Romans considered badness a serious af1iiction and Julius Caesar was never quite satisfied with himself because his poll was bare.
 The face, however, is the open book and one can readily trace in it's various expres- sions, lines, changes aLd complexion the state of the system.
 The eye that. is unusually bright and yet has a palhd brightness, the face upon whose cheeks nature Palnts rose or sln- gular beauty and flush, more marked Ill con trast with the alabaster appearance of the forehead and nose and lower part Of the tace. is one of those whom the skilled phy- sician will tell you will some day dread the funereal month of March, because It is then that consumption reaps its richest harvest. Consumption they tell US IS caused by this, that and the other thing, by mi crobes in the air, by micro-organlsms Tn the blood, by deficient nutrition, by thou sand and one things, but whatever the cause, decay begins with a cough and the remedy that will effectually stop the cause or that cough cures the disease of the lungs.
 That is all there is of it.
 The cough is an evidence of wasting. To stop it effectually, remedy must be used that will search out the cause, re- move that and then heal the lung and do away with the cough This is the power, special to itself, possessed alone by War ner's Log Cabin Cough and Consumption remedy. This is no new-fangled notion of narcotics and poisons, but an old-fash- toned preparation of balsams, roots and herbs, such as was used by our ancestors many years ago, the formula of which has been secured exclusively by the present manufacturers at great trouble and expense. It is not a mere cold dryer. It is system searcher and upbuilder and a consumption expellant. Where others fail, it wins, be- cause it gets at the constitutional cause ana removes it from the system.
 | J. w. Hensaw of Greensboro, Pa., on Jan. | 15, 1888, reported. that he had derived more real benefit for the length of tune from Warmers Log Cabin Cough and Con sumption remedy than he had for years | from the best state physicians"
 If you have cough, night sweats, "posl tive assurance in your own mlnd thai you, oh-you, have no consumption, and yet lose flesh, appetite, courage, as your lungs waste away, you may know tna soon the funereal month of March VII claim you, unless promptly and faithfully you use the article named. If other rem edies have failed try this one thoroughly If others are offered, insist the more oI trying this unequaled preparation.
 Some persons are prone to consumption and they should never allow the disease t become seated.

CLOVE-CHEWING TOPERS.
The vilest Smell Ever Encountered by

The ViIest Smell Ever Encountered by a
 Chicago Newspaper Man.
 In strolling around a city one encoun- ters a good many evil smells, says the Chicago Journals Sidewalk Strol Ter. Among them may be mentioned fish, kerosene, carbolic disinfectants, onions, gas, and a good many much worse. But the vilest smGil that ever encountered IS the smell of cloves on mans breath. l like to pick up a handful of cloves and smell them, and to many table dishes cloves impart a delicious flavor. But cloves on mans breath make me deadly sick at the stomach. The reason is toler- ably clear. They are taken into the mouth to keep down worse smell, and they don't even do that; they simply produce smell compounded of vileness and ira grance. The effect is like pouring cologne water on a dung-hill. When l smell cloves on mans breath my first thought is, "That man is a fool" He thinks he Is concealing the smell of whisky or some other vile smell, and he is only adVertls- ing it. There is another reason, also, why he is fool. The oil of cloves, which is expressed from them by chewing them, is an active solvent of the enamel Of the teeth. Any one who chews cloves will soon notice that it makes the teeth ten- der. That means that their enamel IS disappearing: and the next step is a mouthful of decayed teeth, which all the odors of Araby the blest can never sveeten. When will people learn that the sweetest and rGrest smell of all is nc smell at all.

shoo,.ins. Accident

So read the headlines of many a newspa- per column, and we peruse with palpitating g interest the details of the catastrophe, and are deeply impressed by the sacrifice of hu- man lives involved. Yet thousands of men and women are filling victims every year to that terrible disease, consumption (scrof- ula of the lungs), and they and their friends are satisfied to believe the malady incura- ble. Now, there could be no greater mis- take. No earthly power, of course, can re- store lung that is entirely wasted, but Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will rapidly and surely arrest the ravages of consumption, if taken in time. Do not, therefore, despair, until you have tried this wonderful remedy.
