weaknesses and ailments. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription
brings relief and cure. 1t is a
powerful, invigorating, restorative
tonic and nervine. 1t lmparts
strength to the whole system in
general, and to the uterine organs
and appendages in particular.

valuable in its effects when taken
for those disorders and derange.

Money in Mutton.

The raising of early lambs for the city
markets offers rare encouragement to
sheep h~usbandry. Mr.. Bowditch sold
lambs last season 40 days of age which
dressed over 30 pounds each. Such a
lamb would bring so, perhaps more.
His plan is to produce a very fat lamb
at the youngest age possible. A neigh
Dor, near my own home in Connecticut,
kept 40 ewes during the winter of 1887
and 1888. The sales of lambs and wool
Melted 1925, or an average of ssh per
head for the entire flock. The lambs
were sold on commission in Hartford,
which, by the way, is the best method
for selling such stock. The reputable
dealer can easily secure a better price
than the producer. With good stock,
good care and liberal feeding far better
results can be obtained with sheep than
with almost any other farm animal.
But "a good breeder must be a good
feeder" We must not expect some
thing to come of nothing. We must not
give the sheep old, WORKOUT pastures
where scarcely any other stock would
live. Before we get a dividend We must
deposit cash in the bank. Let US de7
post in the bank which our funds rep1
resent capital which will return US
good dividend. While it is impossible
to keep sheep on every farm, it can bd|
done with profit on a larger number Of
farms than are keeping them to-day. n
would not advise a radical change by
selling all the cattle at once, but by be-
ginning the purchase of a few good
sheep and increasing the number as cir
cumstances print. Don't be afraid Of
o~ver-stocking the market. The first
class lamb or mutton carcass will always
find a buyer at full market value

Every other day ushers in a new pape,
in Georgia. An editor, who is a recenr
acquisition to the fraternity, was asked
about the prospects of his paper.
"First Glass;" he said.

"None at ALL"
"Many subscribers"

"Well," said the editor in a confiden
tial whisper, ''T've just started, you see
and haven't had time to canvass the
county. But I know my prospects are
good. I had not been in the town
twenty-four hours when the mayor
called and appointed me superintendent
of streets; the minister prayed for me and
elected me member of the church char

to deliver a commencement address; the

THE AUSTRALIAN DYING YEAR.

Not In the winter of life he dies,
Chilled, and snowy, and old.
In the glory Of summer the Old Year dies,
When the midnight chime Is tolled.
Not in the sky is a hint o. death
A sky of infinite blue
Nor is there a sigh in the breezy breath
That is playing the leaflets through.
The cattle and birds to the shade retreat,
In drowsy, still delight;
And flowers have scented the monday heat;
Yet the Old Year dies tonight.
And the air is filled with the sound of bees,
The humming of summer flies,
And there's joy in the sound Of the rustling trees
Yet tonight the Old Year dies.
Not in the winter of life he dies.
But in his summers prime;
His labors end, he stricken dies,
And swells the ranks of Time.

Disregard for the Dress Suit.

Barry Sullivan, the eminent tragedian.
was resting" some few years ago at q
hydropathic establishment not far from
London. To the surprise of all and the
annoyance of some, he was the only
gentleman who, against the custom of
the house, appeared at the dinner table
without evening dress. Complaints
were made to the management, who
asked Mr.. Sullivan the reason for it.
''Sir," he said, Il have spent nearly
the whole of my life taking off and put.
ting on clothes. I am here for rest, and
will not change my dress for any one

A Terror Sometimes .

A Miss Clarkson, of Brooklyn, went
over to Newark, staid two days, and
when she returned she wanted an item
put into a society paper. She gave it to
a fellow boarder to take down, but he
forgot it, and she pulled his hair, skin
ned his nose, BACKED his eye, and had
to pay $50 damages. Society is a terror
when it gets mad.-Detroit Free Press.

FLU MACl1INEs
has an oscillating arm pivoted near the
back of the casing which incloses the
mechanism. This arm has motion i'm
parted to it about midway between the
pivot and the cutter by means of a
crank carrying a steel roller. The neces-
sary pressure is brought upon the cutter
through the fork by means of a spher-
ical-ended stud, or mushroom piece"
as it is called. This stud is surmounted
by an external cap, which can be
screwed down so as to adjust the press
ure on the cutter. The whole of this
apparatus is about twelve inches long,
and for shearing it is connected with a
flexible shaft, which can be driven by
any convenient power. The rotation of
the shaft causes the cutter to nov
rapidly to and fro across the face of
the comb, SO that when applied to a
sheep the wool is clipped off as fast as
it is brought between the teeth of the
comb and those of the cutter. - n. Y.
