The Mythical Number Three,
get a better grad,

Much has been said and written
of the "sacred number seven. "
How about the number three?
Surely it may be found in as many
odd combinations as the Sacred
number" First we have the Trim
ity; Jupiter's lightning had three
forks; the trident of Neptune three
prongs; Cerberus, Pluto's dog, had
three heads, and the Pythian priest
ess sat ON a tripod. There were
three Parcas and three Furies. The
sun is Sol, Apollo and Liber. The
moon, too, is Luna, Diana and
Heeate. The Sabines prayed three
times a day, and many nations, in
performing the act of alteration, bow
three times. In olden times diseases
were cured by three eircumlocutions,
eye diseases with water strained
three times into three separate YES
sells and applied three times. Many
other odd three combinations could
be cited, but the above proves that
the seven is not alone as a mythical
number.

Losses by The Great Floods.

l
The losses by the recent grea
floods on the Missouri and Missis
sippi rivers have been estimated a
$50, 100000. Here are the items
Missouri-Wheat and corn de
stroyed, 500, 700 acres, $40, 900, 900
homes ruined, 81, 100000; cattle
drowned, $4,000; railroad prop
erty destroyed, $150,000. Total
s11 100000.
Tennessee-Cotton loss, $500, 900;
wheat loss, 81 200, 900; homes and
cattle, 100000. Total, 50, ,200,'
[OOO.
Arkansas - Farms inundated,
9, 1888. Loss as follows: 50, ,50O,.
600; cotton, 5000, 900; other pro,
ducts, 50, 100000. Total, $40, ,0O0,.
600.
Mississippi-Loss, $4,000, 600
Louisiana-Loss, $5, 600, 900.
Kentuclky-Loss, $2O0,0 900.
In view of such losses as these,
northern farmers have little cause
for complaint in comparison with
their southern brethren. At the
worst we will raise enough to feed
ourselves and stock, while thousands
of those who farm the bottom lands
of the great rivers that are inundated
have no prospect of raising thei,
staple crop. 1t is too late to plant
cotton, and after the waters subside
it may be too late for corn.

,A(>H He
The Right Way to Drink Milk.
From the New York Recorder.


Few people know that there is a
good and a bad way of drinking milk.
The bad way is that which they gen.
orally follow, viz, to swallow large
quantity at once. When milk goes
into the stomach it is instantly curd-
led, and if it is curdled into one big
mass, the juices of the stomach can
work only on the outside of it. This
is the reason that many people who
like milk, and to whom it should be
Of the utmost benefit, cannot drink
it. They say it gives them indiges-
ton, and they are right. Let them
give it another chance. But this time
they must sip it slowly, not taking
more than a good teaspoonful at one
sip and taking at least four minutes
to finish the glassful. Each little sip
thus becomes curdled up by itself
when passed into the stomach and
the digestive juices percolate freely
around it and it speedily becomes
assimilated. One of the best restora-
tives known after excessive fatigue,
and one infinitely preferable to any
form of alcohol, is a glass of hot
milk. The heat seems to tighten it
and to deprive it of much of the
sweetness which is SO cloying to
some tastes.
