These lines of Pinclmey bring before the
mental vision q woman Of surprising beau
ty, challenging admiration and homage.
This sentimental tribute was, no doubt,
worthily bestowed by the poet, but it is a
prosaic fact that large numbers of our fair
country women are deficient in personal
charms, because they do not try and con-
quer the disorders peculiar to their sex, and
from which 80 many of them suffer mar
tyrdom. As it is the ambition of every
woman to look her best, let the afflicted
ones use DR.; Pierce's Favorite Prescription,
and thus recover their health, without
which there can be no beauty.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a le-
gitimate medicine, not beverage; carefully
compounded by an experienced physician,
and adapted to woman's delicate organiza-
ton. It is purely vegetable in composition
and perfectly harmless in any condition of
the system. Contains no alcohol to inebri-
ate; no syrup 6r sugar to ferment in the
stomach and derange digestion.
As an invigorating ionic, it imparts
strength to tho whole 5ystem: For over
tated teachers, milliners, dressmakers,
seamstresses, "shop girls" housekeepers,

= In Silas Wickhsm's saw-mill, on Bow
mans creek, robin built her nest in q
queer spot last summer; says Scranton
correspondent The mill had been idle
for some time, and late in May while
Mr.. Wickham was getting ready to saw
few logs, cock robin darted about
the mill and squalled spitefully at him.
Why the noisy bird was 80 cross MIR.
Wickham couldn't make out, but he
learned pretty soon after he had hoisted
the gate and set the mill agoing. On
the top of the upright saw frame mother
robin had built her nest, and she was
sitting on it when the machinery began
to make the saw fly up and down. The
quick, downward strokes came mighty
near pulling the nest away from her,
but she clung fast and kept her four
eggs warm. Meantime the male robin
darted at Mr.. Wickham every few
seconds and cried at times as though he
had no business around there. The
female birds admirable devotion to
duty, and the male robins incessant
pleadings in her behalf, touched Mr..
FWickhsm's sympathetc chord, he said,
and before the saw was. half through
the log he shut the water of. Hewaa
in no hurry for lumber, and he didn't
try to run the saw again until after the

IT is q mistake to use a check-rein
and hard bit to hoist the head of horse
up out of the natural position especially
when at work or hauling load. The
suffering it causes the animal is in
tense.
FEED more oats this year." advises
Rural New Yorker. There is no rea-
son why oats should not be fed with
profit to all kinds Of stock, cattle. sheep,
pigs and poultry. We do not mean fed
exclusively, but fed in com animation with
other grains and folders"
BRIGHT oat straw is one of the best fod-
ders we have for horses, and preferable
to poor hay at all times. The best way
to feed is to run it through cutter and
mix bran and ground oats with it. 1t
should be slightly moistened so as to
make the ground feed adhere to it.
THE future development and useful
ness of your COWS will be greatly in
fluenced by the treatment given them
while calves. Oats and clover hay are
the best feed for growing stock. They
are both very cheap, and it will pay to
feed literally for the next six months.
The rapid growth of an animal when
it is young will be an advantage to it
later ON in life. The greatest proper
tionate gain with animals is during the
first year. If the young stock is kept
in thrifty, growing condition the first
two years the greater proportion of work
required to secure profit will have been
performed.
The Cranberry scald.
In bulletin on the cranberry >scald
land rot) issued from the New Jersey
Station it is said the loss in New Jersey
from this cause is not far from one-third
of the crop, and furthermore that there
is very little of this trouble outside of
that State. Upon the same bog the scald
varies from year to year, warm, wet
season being most favorable to its devel-
opment. Various remedies, as lime, cop
peras, etc., have been employed, but
with no marked good effect Sanding
the bog and controlling the water so that
it will be low in midsummer have usual
~ been benefit to scalded boys. The
trouble is primarily due to a minute
fungus that is found in all parts of the
infected plant and also in the surround
ing soil. What is to be done with bog
