SOFT SHEuuEO EGGS,
The Different Causes Which Produce
Them-A Number of Remedies.

The Different Causes which Produce
Them-A Number of Remedies.
The laying CT soft shell eggs at this
season of the year is very common,
says Annie Webster in an exchange,
and many remedies are suggested to
prevent it. The fact is, the causes are
many. and if they are all treated alike
it will be a matter of chance whether
success is obtained. The most common
cause, and one on which the most stress
is always laid, is the lack of calcare-
Gus matter in the chicken system, and
hence in their food The common rem
edy is good one. Give the fowls the
freedom of beds of old mortar or of
oyster shells broken up If the lack of
this substance in the system is the
cause of the complaint, such treatment
will bring about a change shortly. A
second cause. very common among the
DOrkings, Crevecoeurs and other heavy
breeds. especially at this season of the
year, is undue excitement. In the
spring of the year they are exposed
more to excitement when they are on
the range than at any other season, and
this induces them to lay soft shelled
eggs. Fowls that are driven about
much, or worried in any way will be
apt to lay soft eggs. The only remedy
for this, of course, is complete rest
and removal of the causes of excites
ment.
Disease and Inflammation of the egg
passage is another very common cause,
which causes the production of eggs
unfit for market, and those which are
often broken before they can be Sc
cured for home use. The best remedy
for this is to give the hens a dose or
two Of calomel one grain, and one
twelfth of a grain of tartar emetic, in
their meals. This may be repeated
day or two after.
This complaint is sometimes caused
by Over-stimulating food. such as high
ly-spiced food from the table. At such
times the food ration should be very
simple, consisting chiefly of rice and
potatoes, with no seasoning whatever
in it. UnwholesOme food will also
bring about the same I'M
healthy condition.

THE TEACHERS DREAM.


The days Of June are rich and rare,
But in the schools are dreary days;
The bright sun woos to outdoor plays
The trees rejoice in sultry air,
But thought grows sluggish and the child
Grows restless meath the scepter mild;
The teacher wearies Of her care.
The drowsy breath Of June had famed
A teacher, tired Of her voice:
She loved the labor Of her choice,
Yet weary were her heart and hand.
But in one moment visions rare
Had quickened heart and lightened care
One moment-years in bright dreamland
She saw 4 speaker, who began
To thrill the throng in accents bold;
Brave, lofty were the truths he told;
Through all their hearts his spirit ran;
For goodness, honor, love he pleads,
Denouncing hate and wicked deeds
He was her pupil-grown a man.
I'm dreams she saw lady mild.
With little children by her side.
The mother spoke wise words to guide
Her brood in virtue undefiled.
With trust look up the little birds;
The mother spoke the very words
The teacher taught her when child.
Two men would lead third astray;
They promise ONCE gold and fame
II he will stain an honest name.
- No. - said the noble man; away.

How proud she felt. The man unbought

CHEERFULLY CORRECTED.
The Other Side in the Cooper Divorce

Case.
In the last SUNDAY UNION an r1nin-
tional injustice was done to Mr.. John F.
Cooper in the publication of synopsis of
the decision of the Supreme Court in the
matter Of the diverse proceedings in the
case of Cooper VS.. Cooper. The synopsis
should have been supplemented by the
concurring opinion of Justice Paterson.
which is here given in full, as matter of
justice to Mr.. Cooper. The learned Jus
tice says:
1 concur in the judgment on the ground
that the plaintiff is not a party ag-
grieved" within the meaning of Sections
657 and 93S, Code of Civil Procedure.
Plaintiff was granted all the relief she
prayed for. She was asked by the court
whether she wanted the children and she
replied that she did not because Mr.
Cooper had always been kind to them
always had the care of them and could
take better care Of them than she could.
The property rights of the parties had
been settled amicably between them.
There is nothing, therefore, in the record
upon which the plaintiff can base claim
of grievance, and / am at loss to UNDER
stand the object OF the motion for new
trial and of this appeal. While it is true
as stated in McBlain VS.. McBlain. cited
in the briefs, the public has an interest in
the result of every action for divorce, and
the court, on grounds of public policy.
should exercise its discretion to the
fullest extent and securing to both parties
a full and fair hearing on the merits the
public has no right of appeal, nor has any
one the right to represent it. Plaintiff
probably desires new trial for the pur-
pose of securing some additional relief in
regard to property matters, but as to
such matters the public has no more in
terest than it has in any other action in
volving property rights.
