FREDERICK L. ROBERTS, M. D.,
Physician to and Professor Of Clinical
Medicine at University College Hos
pita, London, Eng, says: "Bright's
Disease has no symptoms of its own,
and may long exist without the kn0wl-
edge of the patient or practitioner, as
no pain will be felt in the kidneys or

people dying with Bright's Disease, or
advanced kidney malady. The disease
is not suspected until it reaches a fatal
period. Ii Warmers Safe Cure is used
at the proper time, the fatality from
that terrible disease would be greatly
decreased. DIR. Thompson also says:

Suggestions TO Jelly Makers.


The most tart fruits Will make the firm
est jelly, although fruits of all kinds can
be used. Bnt in the case of peaches,
ounces, apples and crab apples, little
water must be added TO them for the first
cooking. They are not sufficiently juicy
and would burn before any juice could
be obtained. A more Iaborious meth1d,
however, which will avoid adding the
water, is to i'm provIse double boiler by
setting the kettle of fruit into a large
pan of water and cock the fruit in this
way. It will need stirrisg frequently and
to be cooked longer than the first method.
Ounces require quarter of pound
less sugar to a pint of juice than other
frnits, while green grapes, which make a
most delicious, spicy jelly to eat With
poultry and game, need one and half
pounds of sugar for the same quantity
of juice. Barberries require that their
juice and the sugar be boiled together
ten minutes before pouring into the
glasses.
Bags to strain the juice through are
often made Of flannel, and are good, but
those of coarse yet firm crash are better.
In either case two loops OF tape should
be sewed on each side of the bag, so that
piece of broom or mop handle or the
time hoDored family stick, can be run
through them and the bag suspended.
A porcelain or granite ware kettle, q
wooden spoon, tumblers ready to roll in
hot water Just before filling, and towels to
wipe them quickly ell being at hand,
jelly making can begin without delay

FLAX AND LINEN.
The Manufacture from the Fibre to the Finish
ed Fabric.


ed Fabric.
A gentleman VINO is prominently con-
nected with the manufacture of linen in
Europe and who is the representative in
New York of one of thu leading firms on
tx other side of the Atlantic, was asked
by a representative of the Daily Dry
Goods Reporter to give few facts con-
corning fax culture and linen manu-
facture in their relation to each other.
"WelI," said he Il do not believe that
it will hurt my business to give you q
few points. The question of fax culture
has been SO thoroughly discussed in this
country of late that there is little for me
to add. The Economist has been on the
right track all the time, but there is one
point which you have not yet touched
and which is of the utmost importance,
as showing what relation exists between
the agricultural AID the industrial side
of the question"
"Will you enlighten us on this'subjectP'
'Certianly. The amount of work which
is done on linen from the field to the
finished fabric is much more than on
perhaps any other textile with the ex-
ception of silk. The manipulation of
cotton is very easy aud almost nothing
as compared with fax in all stages of
manufactures. To show you what
Importance fax spinning mill can have
for agriculture, may state that mill
having say ten thousand spindles and
spinning the finer numbers, can consume
annually the product of at least two
Thousand acres, while a much larger
acreage would be necessary 20 supply the
same number of spindles working for
coarser yarns. The greater difficulty in
the manipulate of fax as compared with
cotton reuders it necessary to employ
hands, and as an EN- ployment-giving in
dustry the linen is one of the foremost,
if the proportionate amount of wages
as compared with material in the finish
ed fabric is alone taken into considera-
ton"
care you believer in the future of an
American linen Industry"
81 am an i'm porter and my interests
are more on the other side of the Atlantic,
but do not see what should be In the
way TO prevent the development of such
an industry here. Mind, it will be slow
work, but the outlook Is not very favor
able Just at present. If il was, should
be one of the strongest advocates of such
industry here and would be the first to
make beginning and invest some cap
itaI here. 1t is, however, too soon yet"
The number of fax spindles in the
various countries is interesting. The
fax industry does not come up to cotton
or voolens. Il is, nevertheless, very
important industry, to the magnitude of
which the criterion of the number of
spindIes cannot be fairly applied when
com pared to Other textile industries. In
fax, as we'll as in cotton, Great Britain
also takes the lead in the number of
spindles, as seen by the following figures:
Great Britain and Ireland, 1 100000:
France, 5OO,0 COO; Belgium, $50 600; Austria,
10000; Germany, 110, 900; Russia, 10000;
other states, 10000.

of the scheme is apparent to the western
farmer. Farm, Sock and Home, OF
Minneapolis, puncsures the bubble very
neatly as follows:
But the department. and is intelligent
advisor are going TO bring abous fax
millennium By manufac, uriug the fore.
No trouble whatever abou this: Just
make it up into fue linen; that's all.
Surely the Department. Of Agriculture
ought To know-jt is safe to say the War
Department knows that much abous agri
calture-ihat ever since the creation of
this governments attempts have been
mad to Manufacture domestic flax fibre
inro merchantabIe linen goods, and every
vffprt has faiied, except in making the
coaTsest KIND of burlsp and jute baggipg.
Cordage OF 10 kind. even binding tsine,
has as yet been successfully made of
domestic fax
The only country yet known to produce
fax capable Of making the finest linen is
Ireland. Germany produces a fax Of
great strength, dut it cannot BE spun so
finely, nor does 1t make q fabric so soft
and fine as that of Ireland.
It is possible that we may yet find in
some portion of our vast domain a region
with q climate, soil and tmosphere
adapted to the culture of fax capable of
making foe linen, and of fax straw worth
$50 ton, but at this stage of develop
ment for the Department OF Agriculture
to encourage the conviction or create the
hope that ali We need is to grow fax and
build linen mills aud thus "soive the
economic problem" and make unneces-
sary the further growing OF wheat, is a
bit of literary and professional y work
thet il oueht 70 be ashamed of, to say
nothing OF treating the subject as though
discovery of certain and great value had
been made.

WAITING FOR THE BUGLE.
r. ". H1Gerssos IN CHICAGO LEADER

We wait for the bugle. the night-dews are cold,
The limbs of the soldier fall Jaded and old,
The field of our bivouac is windy and bare,
There is lead in our joints, there is frost in our
hair;
The future is yelled and its fortunes unknown,
AS we lie with hushed breath till the bugle is
blown.
At the sound of that bugle each comrade shall
spring
Like an arrow released from the strain of the
string:
The courage, the impulse of youth shall come
b4ck
To Danish the chill of the drear bivouac,
Add sorrows and losses and cares fade away
When ife-giving signal proclaims the new day.
Though the bivouac of age may put ice in our
veins
And no fibre of steel in our sinew remains;
Though the comrades Of yesterdays march are
not here,
And the sunlight seems pale. and the branches
are scar
Though the SQUAD of our cheering dies down to
moan.
We shall find our lost youth when the bugle is
blown
