Breeding Trotting Stock.

The age at which trotting sires and
dams are likely 10 produce the highest
rate of speed is q matter of some i'm
portancc to young breeders who are
about selecting the animals to form
nucleus of their establishments. A
little reflection upon the part of any
one conversant with physiology will
suggest the idea that the best results
are likely 10 follow the mating of
nature animals of vigorous health
when In the very prime of
life. Most authors who have
written upon this subject advocate
the use of young stations with aged
mares. and vice versa, when aged ami
mails are used for breeding purposes.
1t is well-known fact that many
stations produce their best results
when well advanced in years. and for
that reason some have been led to be-
lieve that an old stallion is prefer able
to a young one. The success Of an old
stallion, however, may be due in n
great part to the fact that the merits
of stations which possess such are
better appreciated at that period, and
they then attract much better class
of patronage. america CultiUator.

We often hear it stated that a man is not
responsible for what he does not know.
The law presupposes knowledge and there

"If had only known" has often been an
unfortunate mans apology for some evil

laudanum is poison, that naphtha is
deadly explosive, that blood heavily charged
with a winters accumulations of the waste
of the system lit is ones duty to know the
fact and the consequences thereof. Our
good old grandmothers knew for instance,
that the opening of spring was the most
perilous period of the year.
Whyl
Because then the blood stream is sluggish
and chilled by the cold weather, and if not
thinned a good deal and made to flow quick
ly and beautifully through the arteries and
veins, it is impossible to have good vigor

She Wouldn't Be Conquered.

An old-fashioned Yankee of Quaker
stock. who ran shoe factory in New
England. INDUCED in theory that q
moral wrong was somehow perpetrated
upon the community If woman were
allowed to earn above the stipulated
sum each week. As the help was paid
by the piece. and he had to keep tally
in the main with current prices, he
found this rather hard to manage at
times. The swiftness of one young
woman especially troubled him. She
would persist in running financially
ahead of the others. At last he made
special cut-down in her prices, and
told her why he did it. She gave him
baleful glance. frightened her lips.
and went on working. BY Saturday
night next despite the cut-down. she
made ten cents above the week before.
Another week went by. when he cut
her down still more. The damsel still
proved game and rose to the occasion.
After week or more the Quaker con-
science grew scared and asked her
what she meant at means" said the
girl, 'shat you may keep on and I'll
keep on till you have a corpse on your
hands in this workroom. for I'm grit
aud you can't conquer mel" The race
ended there. and the girl was allowed
normal pay.-E Y Post

Farming a Good Occupation.

l dislike to see in agricultural journ-
els complaints that farming does not
pay; that the farmers lot is very
hard one; that the farmers wife is a
slave. etc. Such complaints are not
infrequent in our agricultural papers
South and North. West and East.
They ought net to appear
In this blessed country of ours, the
best for the people of any on the
globe, no man is bound down to caste.
We have not the least semblance of

men to certain planes of action. If

profitable vocation, why do you not
forsake it and do work less unpleas-
ant and better paidP You
are perfectly free 10 do this;
you are not compelled to be a
farmer by the laws Of the land or the
customs Of society. The only thing
that can prevent your doing other
work is your lack of ability and skill.
If you lack these. no wonder you find
farming Improbable. and the fault
is not with farming, but with you.
Nowadays "anv fool can farm" only

and business training necessary 10
the merchant you lack what is neces-
sary to the successful farmer, and you
should complain of what you lack,
not of farming.
1t does no good to make complaint.
You may grumble about farming until
death takes mercy on the world BY
stopping your tongue. and instead Of
lettering your condition thereby you
will make 1t worse. II there is any
fault it is with you. and. therefore.
you should spend your allowable leis-

boring. Let each one make the spirit

CARE OF THE TEETH.
Ordinary Precautions Which Evcrybod
should Observe.

oroihhry precautions Which Everybody
should Observe.
Brush yom teeth, and teach your
children to brnsh their teeth afterevery
meal with tepid water. and always just
before retiring al night with agood dem
thrice. II you could brush your teeth
but once a day, you should do it the
last thing before going to bed, for the
constant movement Of the tongue and
saliva against the teeth during the day
keep them partly cleansed. but at night
the muscles and tongue are at rest, and
the small particles of food that are float
ing about in the mouth or lodged be-
tween the teeth unite with the stagnant
saliva, producing I'm acid that attacks
The tooth either at the neck or in one Of
the irregular convolutions Of tho crown.
While too vigorous brushing is to be
deprecated, yet it is better to err in
OVERRIDING than not brushing thorough
ly enough. Every accessible surface Of
the teeth should be thoroughly brushed
to remove any food that may be lodged
there. DO not rest content to brush
only the fronts of the teeth, but also
the inner surface and crowns; the upper
teeth should be brushed downward and
the lower teeth upward in order that
the bristles may pass between the teeth
and force out any particles of food
there; it also presses the gums against
the necks of the teeth. Always use a
soft wooden tootbpick after meals,
never pin or any metal one.
Never use any advertised or recon-
mendcd powders that you do not know
their entire constituents. Avoid all
powders that contain soap, charcoal,
cuttle-fish bone or any oily or insoluble
substance for constant use. Do not use
any wash that is recommended for
whitening the teeth; it either does not
accomplish the result, or does it at the
expense OF the enamel of the teeth. Any
dcntifrice that has precipitated chalk
for its base is good, provided it con-
tains no acid. When you or your chill
drcn take any of the solutions of iron,
or other strong medicines. whether
through quill. as they should be, or
IN any other manner, see that the teeth
are brushed Immediately afterward.
BY observing these precautions and a
visit to some good dentist every six
months. so that any disease or other
imperfection may be seen and corrected
before it gets any Roadway, you and
your children ought under ordinary
circumstances preserve your teeth till
old age. Home Knowledge.

THE coNQUERiNe PENNY.
After Many Vain Struggles 1t Finds Its
Wuy Into the South.

hIGoT many VAIN otrukgIos ~ FIuuo ltd
Way Into the South.
The action of the Railroad Commits
sion of Georgia, amending its rules SO
as to make passenger fares exact, will
introduce the penny into general circu-
lation in this State. The rule has been
that the odd cents should go the rail-
road or the purchaser of ticket accord
ing to circumstances. For instance, for
distance of nine miles the road was
entitled to twenty-seven cents. but un-
der the old rule it sold for twenty-five
cents, the nearest figure to even change
in our usual currency. If the distance
was eleven miles the passenger paid
thirty-five cents for the same reason.
The railroads never objected to this ar
rangement as it was practically about
an even thing for them. The commits
sion thinks that such an arrangement
compels one passenger to make up an
others deficit and is therefore unjust,
no matter how small the amount in
volved may be.
The best result of this decision will be
the general Introduction and free use
Of the penny. 1t has never been used
in this State since the war to any ex-
tent. Post-offices have had q monopoly
Of the penny business. From time to
lime few enterprising retail mer-
chants in our cities have endeavored to
put them into circulation, but they did
not take" Five cents has been the
lowest ordinary coin among our people
for years, When pennies are at every
railroad station and are given in
change at almost every sale of q ticket
they are bound to come into general
circulation in all branches of business.
Their use will incuicate useful habit
Of economy. As rule our people are
too apt to despise the humble penny.
They can not afford to do so until they
have more of the prouder denomina-
lions of money. 1t is impossible to call
culate the actual waste which has been
caused by the use Of the nickel as the
minimum of currency in the South. but
it has undoubtedly been great Our
people are learning to economize in
small things. and the little brown penny
will be welcome to Georgia Macon

Connecticut. 6 New Jersey. %
Indiana. ..15 New York. SO
Thee are many oyersanguine
Democrats, perhaps, who do not
regard New York as doubtful
State, but the News and Advertis-
Ell is not of that number. The
money power of the tariff-protected
monopolists must not be undefesti-
mated; for, alarmed by the tariff
reform platform OF the Democracy,
it will be more active than ever be-
fore. When all this is taken into
consideration, in connection with
the fact that the Democrats barely
carried the State in 1884, we are
compelled to put New York on the
doubtful list.
1t will be seen by the table above
that the Democrats must carry
New York, while the Republicans
will not have to. Indiana and
either Connecticut or New jersey
will serve the Republicans, while
the Democrats must have New
York and two of the other doubt
full States. The stronghold of the
Democracy is the fact that Cleve.
land is stronger than his party.
