A qcomd1a acho can see.
She's the woman who gets we'll.
It's the woman who aoon't see and
won't believe who has to suffer.
And it's needless. There's a
medicine-a legitimate medicine
that's made to stop woman's suf-
fering and cure woman's ailments.
It's DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. It's purely vegetable and
perfectly harmless "a powerful
general, as well as uterine, tonic
and nervine, imparting vigor and
strength to the whole system. For
periodical pains, weak back, bearing
down sensations, nervous prostra-
ton, and all female complaints, :"
it's a positive remedy. 1t improves
digestion, enriches the blood, dispels
aches and pains, melancholy and
nervousness, brings refreshing sleep,
and restores health and strength.
No other medicine for women is
guaranteed, as this is. If it fails to
give satisfaction, in any case, the
money paid for it is refunded. You
pay only for the good you get. On
these terms it's the cheapest.
But more than that, it's the best.

WATERING STOCK,
Simple Way of Supplying the Bar,
with Cistern Water.

A Simple Way of Supplying the Ban AZ
with Cistern Water.
One of the first things that attracted
my attention was a cistern to supply
his COW and horse stables with water
1t was built entirely above ground
originally. This saved the expense of
digging. II is safe from frost, for it is
under the bank that leads to the upper
story of the barn. The cistern is 9
feet deep and Is feet in diameter and
holds $50 barrels. The barn stands on
slight side hill, so it is an easy mat
ter to lead the water from the extreme
bottom of the cistern right into the
stables into an appropriate watering
trough for each. There is a large tub
with float in it, so the water always
stands just SO high. 1t is large enough
for several horses to drink from at
once, ana just as fast as they drink the
water more comes in. This apparatus
has been in use seventeen years and
has worked perfectly without repairs,
except new hoops on the tank, and
without freezing. When we take into
consideration that every barn should
have eavespouts anyway, the arrange
ment is not SO very expensive.
Only. those who have had similar
watering arrangement SO as to have
water at hand right in the stables can
realize the time and labor saved com.
pared with the way many farmers
manage to water their stock. Another
thing: | believe it is pretty generally
conceded that rainwater is more whole
some for stock than any other; and
friend Chamberlain declares that if all
the water is carefully saved that falls
on the roof that shelters the horses and
cattle, and their hay and grain, it will
give them all the water they will ever
need to drink; therefore, all that is
wanted is the necessary spouting and
cistern to hold the water. With this
arrangement, mind you, there is no
pumping at all: neither are you obliged
to trouble yourself even so much as to
open a valve. tbs horse is simply led
up to the watering tub; and as it is To-
Gated right whore he passes when he
turns around to come out of his stall,
when he is used every day, he waters
himself.-RootS Gleanings.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

PUT a lump of lime in the drinking
vessel.
BOILED peas or beans make good
poultry food during the winter.
WITH turkeys the best breeding stock
is two years old. When young fowls
are used the earliest Matched should be
selected.
THE only way to pick fowls dry and
clean without tearing them is to do the
work as soon as they are killed, while
the / ody is warm.
TURKEYS are so restless when coz.
Aned that in fattening the time should
be made as short as possible; ten days
Or two weeks is ample.
LACK of variety in their food will
sometimes cause the hens to lose appe-
tite. so that whenever they refuse their
food it will be found good tfAne to
change the diet.
MNsEED meal brightens the plumage
of the fowls; it also regulates the
bowels and promotes digestion. Care
should be taken not to feed too much
THERE is good market now for the
quilts of all kinds of fowls, especially
for the tail feathers of the turkeys.
They should be gathered up, carefully
sorted and tied into bundles.
If any defects are i'll the bird they
will nearly always show when the new
feathers come out after moulting.
Some breeds, however, moult lighter
every year. and this Is not defect

CLIMATIC Influences on Corn.

Last year experiments were under
taken at several experiment stations
both north and south, to determine the
effect of varying climatic influences
upon the same variety of corn. Sew
eral varieties were selected and sent to
each of the stations conducting the ex-
pertinent. These were planted, a rec
ord kept of their growth and advance
ment, and the product, both grain and
fodder, analysed Comparing the re-
suits obtained at the different stations
it appears that the southern grown
corn is richer in albuminoids and fats,
with a corresponding decrease in the
less important ingredients.

whose strings work as hexibly as the
dorsal muscles of professional toady.
And this kind of toady has an exqui-
site flair for your greatness and your
dignity the moment he becomes quite
sure of your pecuniary willingness to
back both. New York is at present the
paradise of parvenus, and these oc-
casionally commit grotesque mistakes
in the distribution of civilties. Because
you chose ito stay in" for season or
two they will take for granted, if sud-
denly brought in contact with you, that
you have never "been out" and could
not go if you tried. OF course, to feel
hurt by such cheap hauteur proves
that you are in a manner worthy of
1t; but even though you are not
in the least hurt you can not
refrain from a thrill of annoyance
that a country which has boosted in so
loud-mouthed a way to Europe of hav-
ing begun its national life by whole
some scorn of class distinction, should
contain citizens cursed by spirit of
such tawdry pride. At least the aris-
tocracies of other lands, vicious and
reprehensible as they have always been,
are yet an evil with certain malign
consistency for their support. Like
those monarchies of which they have
formed a piteous adjunct, they have al
ways been the outgrowths of a perfect
~ natural ignorance.
Though distinct clogs to civilization,
their existence remains pathetically
legitimate. Nuisances, they are still
nuisances with a hereditary hold on
history. Their chief modern claim for
continuance is the fact that they were
once authorized by that very "divine
right which is now the scorn and jest
of philosophy, and that the communi-
ties which they still invest are yet I'M
prepared for the shock of their extirpa-
ton. 1t is clear that they will one day
be sloughed off like mass of dead ami
NAL tissue, even if they are not ampu-
tated like living limb that has grown
hopelessly diseased. They are as surely
doomed by the slow threat of evolution
as is the failure to establish trial by
jury in Russia. They are tolerated by
progress for the simple reason that
progress is not yet ready to destroy
them. Hence all are limitations of their
permitted and perpetual folly in woful-
ly bad taste. They are more; they are
an insult when practiced in such a land
as ours, to republican energies, motives
and ideals. Heaven knows, we are a
country with sorry enough substantial
