How to Boil a Ham in the Most Ap-
provea Manner.
Hams are nearly always underdone,
and therefore tough and indigestible.
The length of time ham should be
kept on the fire must be determined in
each instance by the size of the ham,
which should be soaked in cold water
the night before it is cooked. In the
morning the ham should be put in cold
water with little vinegar OF cider in it
never more than teacup full. Then
the water should be permitted to slowly
come to boil and the kettle removed to
the back of the stove, where it may SIM
mer for from four to eight hours, ac-
cortling to the size of the ham. When
the ham has become cold after being
taken off the stove, the skin should be
removed and the outside top be sprinkled
with grated bread, brown sugar and
spice, and the ham put in the oven
until it has Drowned ON top. If it be
intended to cat it hot it should be served
when taken from the oven, but if it be
intended for cold ham, then the knife
should never touch it till it is really
cold and has stood at least twelve
hours after coming from the oven. To
wrap a ham ill new mown hay when
boiling it gives it a delicious flavor.

For ordinary nervous toothache, which

very hot bath will so soothe the nerves
that sleep will naturally follow and
upon getting up the patient will feel
very much refreshed and the toothache
will be u thing of the past. For what is
known as jumping toothache," hot dry
flannel applied to the face and neck Is
very effective. For common toothache,

About onc-third of mile above the
point where Widows Greek Is crossed
by the Rodney road, is evidently the
site Of mn old Indian encampmont.
Tho spot is situated on a little plateau
not more than hundred yar.ls from
the north bank Of the stream and suf-
ficiently elevated to be beyond the
reach of high water. The ground for
an acre or TWO is strcwn with chips Of
1nt. among which are many imperfect
arrow heads or spear heads. Here
doubtless lived a family of skilled
flint workers, who perhaps supplied
their whole clan with arrow heads.
They showed good judgment IN
choosing this spot for their abode.
The creek valley is covered with the
raw material of their trade in the shape
of flints deposited there by the water
at flood Stage, while the strcam,as early
settlers have handed down by tradI-
tion, originally aboundcd IN trout and
other fine fish. Moreover the whole
country around was the haunt OF deer,
bears and wild turkeys by The thou
sand. But IL is a mystery how the In
dians escaped being devourcd by the
ticks. These Interesting little ami
mails arc The only species Of game now
10 be found in The ncighborhood Of
the old cncampment, and they arc as
numerous aud as blood-thirsty as they
could have been in the days when the

It is quite frequently asserted that
farming does not pay. This we will
frankly admit if the avocation is car
ried on by q man who raises cotton 10
pay for everything. Cotton raising
alone don't pay; this is not farming.
Some people plant four or five acres in
corn, fifteen acres in cotton and spend
one fourth of their time with it and
three-fOurths in town or riding around
over the neIghborhood or paying visits
from home and then call themselves
farmers. Our idea of farming is a
man who raises his own meal, his own
corn, his own mules, has potatoes, corn,
sheep, peas and cattle to sell every year.
We know Of one farmer who has sold
this season 200 bushels Of corn, SO
worth Of sweet potatoes, 1000 pounds
Of meat, quite quantity Of sheep, wool
and cattle. He raises cotton as q sur
plus and makes money every year.
Who can pay Sl.25 per bushel for corn
and raise cotton for z cents per pound ?
Ii is ruination and the sooner the farm
ers find it out the better. If the farm
er sticks TO his farm and raises every
thing at home, ,buyingonly what he can't
raise, we predict success-but bear in
mind he must stick 10 his farm and
think about something else besides cot
ton. We can suggest numbers Of things
that viii pay in addition to the cotton
crop. With the exception Of a few
items there is nothing a farmer should
buy in the provision line. Raise al your
eatables and sell your extra cattle,
sheep and mules, low prices for cotton
will be thing Of the past.-Alliance

About three-fourlhs Of the cattle
owners ofPort Gibson deserve to be
prosecuted for their cruel neglect oi
these poor brutes. Since the clos
ing Of the surrounding pastures, a
large proportion Of tho town cows
live in a state of chronic starvation,
and have TO keep body and soul to-
gether by picking the strips Of herb
age fringing the streets and side
walks. The effect OF this scaniy
fare appears in their transparent
figures and famine-struck aspect in
general. Moreover, there are COM
paratiyely few people who provide
them with shelter from cold and
wet, and during the winter scores OF
ill-fated animals wander hungry and
shivering about the muddy streets,
their silent misery pleading in vain
against such inhuman treatment.
A man capable Of Systematically
starving a COW from which at the
same time, he daily wrings a few
pints of milk for his own nourish-
ment, is not a very elevated type Of
humanity.

While due credit should be given to
the street committee tor what good
work they did during the past twelve
months, IL has 10 be pointed out that
all OF their work does not deserve 10
be called good that some OF IL, IN fact,
was exceedingly bad work, and had
better been left undUne.
Thus, certain streets were greatly
damaged last year By an entirely nocd-
less digging-out of the watcr-drains
along each side. These drains if lcfl
alone, soon line themselves with a
strong Bermuda sod which, by resist
ing the crodiBg action of the water,
secures them against undue enlarge
mcnt. When this sod is torn away al
the wrong season, as in winter or late
autumn. or IN drains that have a nat
ural slope, however gentle, tho incvi-
table result is q gully.
Simple as the matter Is, the street
committee do not seom to understand
IL; for they certainly would not know
ingly allow The streets TO be injured
by bad work. But hitherto all prI-
vate protests have been unheeded.
Last year, 10 the writer's own knowl-
edge, one of our citizens demonstrated
against the deepening of a certain
ditch adjoining bis property; but no
attention was paid 10 this protest.
Tho consequence Is that the former
shallow but sufficient drain has devcl-
oped into sully so deep that II win

mems sense Of touch is. in general,
nearly tNics as obtu . as that Of
men. Passing TO the question Of
general sensibiliiy, including SEN
sitiveness to pam, by experiments
made with the electric algometer,
it is clearly shown that woman is
inferior to man. Among no less
than fifty women of the lower class
es general sensibility was repre-
sented by 80 millimeters and scnsi-
tiveness to PAIN by SO millimeterss
among an equal number of men Of

millimeters in young girls tho
figures wero 81 and 20 miliimeters.
Thus, judging from results obtained
by the alg0meter women in genor-
al are characterized by a marked
degree of sensory obtuseness. But
should the accuracy of the above
figures be doubted land persons
who affect skepticism regarding
such results of scientific research

the case of an equal number Of men.
My conclusions are also borne out
by celebrated operation of DR.

apprehension, women suffer much
less than might be supposed. One
