The doctor who cuts man open after
death and tells what is the matter with
him has the advantage of the doctor who
is compelled to guess what is the matter
with the patient before death.

An excellent broth is made by add

Mushrooms are prepared in many
ways, but to get the true favor the best
way is to fry them: Cut the stems off
short: peel the thin skins off the top

of mattresses. The labor is not harder
or more difficult than are many other
tasks which the ingenious woman ac-
complishes. Rip them apart, and after
carefully busting and cleaning the

place it and retie them. This IS done
by using strong cord and straight

NOTES FOR GARDENERS.

PLANT the garden so that you can
have a regular succession of vegetables.
Plant small fruit with the same end in
view.
PANsIEs are hardy. and a few plants
set out in a bed will thicken to COM
pact cluster and produce large flowers
until late in the season.
Rose bushes thrive better by being
we'll cut out and the old wood removed.
For towering plants wood mold makes
an excellent fertilizer, but it should be
used freely.
THOUGH not considered sure remedy,
the free use of lime around cabbage
plants will assist greatly in keeping the
maCgot away. Scattered literally over
onions. lime checks the ravages of the
onion fly
Work between the rows of the straw
berries. keep the weeds down and the
soil loose. Plant raspberrics early, SO
as to give them a good start. If the
canes are to make good growth give
them manure in the hill.
THOSE who desire to bag grapes
that is. to cover them with paper bags
to prevent grape rot-should remember
to do it as soon as the grapes are visible.
The mischief. if done at all, is done in
the earliest stages Of grape growth.

RAISING JACKS.
some Hints from One who Has Had Ex-
perience.
Yorker.

How to breed a good jack? \ big ques-
ton and worthy of a veteran, but we
will give our experience, not that it will
be of any benefit to any body, but that
the defects in our system may be point
ed out.
First select a iennet not under four
teen hands Highland higher if you can
get the right Shape-with fine head and
ear, long neck. all the length of body
you can get, fine, large. broad bone,
broad hips and chest and well thanked
down. and all the weight and style that
a frame of the kind can carry. Next, find
jack of this type but let him not be less
than 49, hands high, and of course let
them both he black with white points,
bred either in April or September. We
rather favor spring, but the fall breed
ing has its many merits and after your
jennet has stood put her in quiet grass
lot with other JennetS. and never with
violent. wild stock. and have stable in
winter and stable or shed in summer
and keep her out of all rains. Good
grass is the best feed for her, but in
winter, and when there is no grass, a
reasonable quantity of well-cut sheaf or
shelled oats, with a plenty of good hay,
is the best feed, with enough good
bran to keep her regular. You
must never forget her but keep
your eve on her. and as the
time approaches for her to foal your
watch must be more vigilant. If you
have not some place for her to foal il,
build YOU a shed, tight at bottom and
planked up on the sides, with folding
windows. both from top and bottom, to
air and dry the breeding pen out. And
we might put in one corner room
planked up five, and six feet square,
and put in fiue for stove and cot for
watcher, about ten days before she is
due Put her in this shed, and put an
other iennet in an adjoining stall to
the breeding pen. with Stat door
between, and await developments.
Take the precaution to cut some
soft straw about two inches long and
cover the floor three inches deep with
this. If in winter when she shows
signs of distress, build you fire in your
stove and tell her to proceed. She la
back jack colt. He is weak. perhaps,
have tin mouth in shape of gourd
with a large nipple on it, and as soon
as the jennet gets up. milk some milk
from the jennet and put the nipple in
{ the colts mouth and you will find him
ready. and in a few minutes he will be
up. Direct him gently to the jennet
and get him to take hold, and then the
watcher may go to bed.-Cor. Tennes-

Pennsylvania.s women Inventors.

The women inventors of Pennsylvania
are many and there is one bright woman
who has a barrel-hooping machine which
brings her in $1,000 a year. This is
Mary E Beasley, OF Pennsylvania, the
original inventor of the machine and
the paJentee of numerous improvements
upon it One of the machines. it is
said, can put iron hoops on 200 bar
rels in a single dav. II is a valuable
patent and is largely employed by the
trade. Another Pennsylvania woman
has a machine for making button-holes
upon flannels and other materials with
worsted, and Mary E. Whitner, of
Philadelphia, has an improvement in
stereoscopes. and Joanna Gerlitz, of the
same city, got out a patent on bitters
In 1876. Emily Tassey, of Pittsburgh,
has patent siphon, and Emma Reed,
of Scranton. has made a patent corset

PATERNAL LEGISLATION.
How Marriage Gifts Are Regulated by Law
in India.

\ series of rules have just been issued
by the Government of India for regu-
lating the marriage expenses of the
kadya kanbi caste in certain districts
Of the bombay Presidency. Power was
given to the government to make such
rules under an act of 1870 for the pre-
vention of the murder of female infants.
The rules are a curious example of the
patriarchal Legislation some times neces-
sary in Oriental countries. Thus the
presents TO be given at betrothal by the
father or guardian of the bride TO the
father or guardian of the bridegroom
shall not exceed one rupee and seven
suparis or betelnuts." The marriage
present payable to the bridegrooms
father may be one rupee, and shall not
exceed 101 rupees. nor shall the value
of the cocoanutS distributed at the mar
riage procession exceed ten rupees.
The same limit is fixed on the value of
the present by the brides maternal
relations. The payment Oh account of
the ceremony when the bridegroom
touches the fringe of his mother-in-law'S
dress must not go beyond two rupees.
nor shall the payment on account of
Muhi Malta. or the gift of an earthen
pot with eatableS when the bridegroom 5
party depart after the marriage, be more
than Fl We rupees at the outside. The
gift to be paid at the time of the prostra-
ton of the bride before her mother-in-
law is limited to seven rupees; the num-
Der of dinner parties given by the brides
family is not to be more than five. and
the number of guests at each must not
be more than twenty-five. The mar
rage party going TO the brides village
is not to spend more than thirty rupees,
and when the bride goes TO her
husbands house with her first child
the amount to be paid to the bride
groom's friends is not to be more than
eleven rupees, and may be as low as
one rupee. The present to be given by
the brides father may be as little as
one rupee. but must under no circum-
stances exceed one hundred, and what
ever the sum be it must be expended on
ornaments, which will be the wife prop
erty Cthrough life and her husbands
after. When the bridegroom is invited
TO social evening at his father-in-
laws house, the amount to be paid to
him is not to exceed two rupees. nor
shall he take with him on such oc-
casions more than five men. 1t is ex-
pressly provided also that in no case
shall the father or guardian of the bride
take any money from the other on ac-
count of giving his daughter" The
rules do not interfere with the custom

ABOUT SWEET DOORS.
A Perfumer Says They Are Only Three

in Number.
"Sweet odors," said a Chestnut street
perfumer recently, ''are of three kinds
the floral, the aronal and the balsam-
ic. The first group includes all these
derived from sweet-smelling flowers !;
the second those derived from resins,
musks and similar substances. The
otto, or essence of perfume, is obtained
by distillation, maceration or enfiour-
age.
Art" the perfumer continued. i'm
proves on nature and gives bouquets OF
most delicate odor. such asJockey Club,
Wet End, MousseIaine, Millefeur and
host of others which have no counter
part in garden or grove. The delicate
heliotrope, for instance. is scarce and
improbable to the perfumer He de-
tects in its odor, however, the aroma of
vanilla combined with the sharper
scent Of bitter almonds. Therefore he
adds to Il tincture of vanilla a small
quantity of the otto of bitter almonds
and rose and orange flower essence,
and thus easily makes extract of hell
trope.'
The magnolia is 100 large to macer-
ate" he continued. but its odor is de-

essences, which makes fine extract of
magnolia. Indian lemon-green like
wise gives extract of verbena.' With
the rose as a foundation and a dash of
verbena the perfume of the delicate and
fleeing sweet brier' is obtained.
''Of the animal substances, ambergia,
the secretion of a spermaceti whale,
gives mellOwness and permanency to
mixtures Ciuet, a secretion of the At
rican and Indian cat, has an odor har-
monizing with floral compounds. Musk
is found n the small pocket or pouch of
the musk deer of China. Tonquin and
Thibet It is so powerful, aromatic and
persistent that one part of musk will
scent more than three thousand parts
Of inodorouS powder.
''Of the spice series cloves are largely
used. They are the unexpended flower
buds of the Glove trees. Cinnamon or
cassia is largely used. Cassie is not
cassia. Cinnamon or cassia is the bark
of a tree. CaSSia comes from China. the
true cinnamon from Ceylon, and the
two odoTous grasses are natives of India;
one is known as the lemon grass from
which ali our extracts of yerbena' and
'vcrbena water are made, a little ad-
dition of lemon essence making the
counterfeit complete.
Let me now give bit of advice to
your readers. Above all things. avoid
coarse, strong perfumes. \ vily-ladcn

Good taste and breeding in a woman
may easily be told from the perfumes
she uses. While lady charms us with

spreads about her, aspiring vulgarity
Will surely betray itself by a mouchoir

1t VIII Pay.

1t VIII Pay.
To keep a history or private record of
each litter of pigs and of every pig in
the litter is not the difficult task it may
at first thought seem to be. A good
way is to devote to each litter page in
the small pass-bool mentioned in a
former article.
For convenience afterward, in num-
bering and remen beripg the ages of the
pigs, it is we'll to book the filters each
year in the order in which they come;
numbering the litters A
few weeks later, wien the pigs must be
marked. to each of them should be given
the ear-mark or namber of its litter;
that is. all the pigi of any one litter
should have the SANE mark or mum Der.
Head the page selected for the first
litter with the name of the SOW. On
the next line writethe date of farrow,
the word by, and Glowing it, on the
same line. the nam of the sire. Head
the left hand, or date column, with
what are understood to be pair of ears,
on which the ear uirks are to be noted.
The balance of the,age below is for use
indescribing or ma ing notes regarding
the pigs. As soon ashley are old enough
to show what theyare likely to make,
and to have that Individuality about
them SO well undetoOd by any one who
has any love or tass for watching the
development of youg growing animals,
it IS time to note don the number there
are of each sex.
Surprising for COTenlence of illuStra-
tration. there are dy five pigs in litter
No. three bears ind two sows. On
the first line, und ear-marks in the
date column, place' for boar, and on
every alternate lima 3 until three are
placed.
Then continue don the column plac-
ing S two times f sows. This will
give two lines to Ell pig for brief de-
scriptions or notes. IF there is any fear
that the headings the page may not
be understood, by may be made
palmer by using nfe words, and may
read thus: Hood, Sallie. narrowed on

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infiamed condition
