The Band Saved the Boy.

Strineville, Penn, has new brass band.
1t played its first piece the other day.
| The band considerably went half mile
out of town to try its first tune. That
delicate consideration undoubtedly saved
the life of Jimmy Strong, a Strineville
small boy, but it killed Farmer Fred
Stauffer's valuable young Jersey bull. p
At the time the band went out to play
the bull was placidly cropping the fresh
spring grass in his pasture, which was
near the spot chosen by the band for its
maiden effort. While the band was
getting its collective lip ready to COM
| pei tune from its horns Jimmy Strong
was taking short cut through the pas
ture to get to the spot where the band
was. The bull had a reputation for q
temperament that was entirely incompat-
ible with the presence of small boys in
his pasture, and he no sooner had taken
note that there was one even then tres
passing on his domain than he started in
to hasten the small boys trip across the
lot The small boy FASTENED amazingly,
but the bull was gaining on him. The
band was so much absorbed with itself
that it did not notice the procession
HlONluS uCIOoS blC ihCdhOW, uibhOu5h
the bull was mouthing his displeasure
Justify as he bounded along, and the
small boy was lifting up his voice in
far-reaching tones.
The bull had got within a few jumps
of the flying boy just as the band was
ready to play. The band played. At the
first burst and blare of sound that the
band projected on the circumambient air
the bull stopped short, threw up his head,
and shifted and snorted. The horns let
fly again. The bull turned and rushed
wildly toward the stone wall. He reached
the wall, stopped, and looked back with
terror in his eyes. The band threw an
other installment of its soul into the
horns The bull gave one wild leap and
went clear over the wall, fell into the
ditch below, and broke its neck. 1t was
not exactly compliment to the band,
but it saved Jimmy Strong. New York

NERVOUS DrsoRDERs. Natural hy-
adversary Of that reform calls the protest
against the abuse Of drugs, Is really
founded, writes a medical authority, ON
.he fact that there is self-rcgulating
tendency in the constitution of the hui
mann organism, healthward influence,
which does not fail to assert itself as soon
as the predisposing cause of the disease
has been removed.
Health, in fact, in the normal condition
Of all living things, and nature never
ceases to improve chance for reverting
TO that original state of existence
Asthma catarrh, and consumption dis
appear on the removal of the patient
from stuffy, city sick-rooms to the fresh
air of the wilderness that formed the
favorite haunt of our sport-loving ances-
tors. Dyspepsia yields to change from
indigestible made dishes to palmer food,
and the obstinacy of the ever-multiplying
disorders of the nervous system seem to
imply an altogether unexceptional COM
binetion of abnormal circumstances.
Indoor life and want of physical exer-
else may have good deal to do with the
aggravation of those troubles, but the
principle predisposing cause is, mo doubt,
the constant increase of incompetence,
not in the quality of stimulants only, but
in their once unheard-of variety.
The penalties of the stimulant vice are
thus visited upon thousands of our fell
low-citizens who. would Indignantly re-
pudiate the charge of intemperance in
the old-time sense of the word.
FOOD BEFORE SLEEP.-Many persons,
though not actually sick, keep below par
in strength and general tone. DIR. w.
T.: Cathrell expresses the opinion in The
Maryland Medical Journal that fasting
during the long interval between supper
and breakfast, and especially the COM
plete emptiness of the stomach during
sleep, adds greatly to the amount of ema-
citation, sleeplessness and general weak
ness we so often meet.
All beings except man are governed by
natural instinct and every being with
stomach, except man, eats before sleep;
and even the human infant, guided by
the same instinct, sucks frequently day
and night, and if its stomach is empty
for any prolonged period it cries long
and loud.
DlgestlOn requires no INTERVAL OF rest,
and if the amount of food during the
twenty-four hours is, in quantity and
quality, not beyond the physiological
limit, it makes no hurtful difference to
the stomach how few or how short are
the intervals between eating; but it does
make vast difference in the weak and
emaciated ones welfare to hayea modi-
cum of food in the stomach during the
time of sleep, that, instead of being
consumed by bodily action, it may during
the interval improve the lowered system.
am fully satisfied that were the weakly,
the emaciated and the sleepless to nightly
take light lunch or meal of simple,
nutritious food before going to bed for
prolonged period, nine in ten of them
would be thereby lifted into better
standard of health.

THIS year has so far been one OF APP
palling disasters Storms floods,
fires and cyclones have caused great
loss of life and destroyed property OF
enormous value. Frightful accidents,
each claiming for itself many victims,
have also been frequent. The latest
OF these occurred at Covington, KY,
where by the giving away Of the false
timbers OF bridge in course OF con-
struction lightweight workingmen
were precipitated to instant death.
The bridge, which spanned the Lick
ing River betweenCovington and New
port, was begun early last fall and the
piers had been completed. The
workingmen were laying the iron
floor on the false work, fifty feet from
the water, when, without an in
stant's warning, the structure gave
way. Only two men who went down
In the wreck escaped with their lives
Verify, one calamity doth tread up
on anothers heels, so fast they
follow"

lated in Hoard's Dairyman: '.For
three winters he has done all our
saving, and he Will beat any horse at
that / ever saw. For saving we have
him shod, but IL is not necessary for
churning. We have never tried to
see how much he could cut In a day,
but have frequently run him for half
day, as fast as we could get logs on,
without his showing signs OF firing
out. We cut maple log that made
cord OF wood in twenty-five min.
utes. He churns every day except
Sundays, and is as gentle as any calf.
am reluctant to part with him, for
find him about as serviceable as any
horse on the farm. / am planning to
have him still further earn his living
by breaking him to work alone. l
think II every farmer who keeps
twenty or more cows would buy a
tread power and teach the bulls to do
the churning and. wood-sawing, 1T
would be paying investment, be-
sides we should hear less about vi
cious bulls. AS stock-getters they
are improved by daily exercise Of this
kind. Besides doing all the churning,
ours saws from fifty to eighty cords
of wood each winter"

THE terrible flash of lightning that
struck the Grant monument, in Chi
cago, and killed three and injured
seven persons that were sheltering at
its base might have stricken anything
that happened to be standing where
the monument stood Certainly it
would have stricken a group of peo-
pie standing at that place, though
there had not been monument
within a thousand miles OF II. The
monument did not attract the light
ming; it just happened to stand in
tho path of 1t. Ii there were any
force OF attraction exercised upon
the lightning it was by the damp and
hot eXhalations from the crowd OF
people. The most dangerous place in
time Of thunderstorms is in crowd.
The safest is where you are alone.
Nevertheless, from time out of mind
it has been true, and until time cease
it is likely to be true, that people
flock together in the presence of dan
ger. Instinct is inferior to reason as
an instructor, but it is stronger as a
rule of action.

but as for plunging a child into

the practice must soon prove injurious
to the little ones health.

market, cream soups or p,rees are the

lunch. The trimmings from steaks,

that which is sold for cotton clothes
lines is often used. After the poles
and rings are In place cut the ropes
in lengths so they will reach from the
rings to within few inches of the
floor; fringe out the lower end Of each
length six or eight inches and tie a
knot above to hold it; fasten each
length into a ring. Some prefer the
ropes of two lengths.

Bees and Fowls.

AS to bees and fowls occupying the
same yard, that depends upon its
size, meaning by yard" the range
and forage ground Of the fowls. The
writer had eighteen colonies Of bees
at one time, twenty-four at another,
and also, chicks and fowls to the
number of more than two hundred
that roamed at will, around the hives
If they wanted to. There was no
clashing between them, and no evil
dence that one was aware of the ex-
istence of the other, but the range
extended over four acres or more. OF
course bees should not be kept in a
hen-coop or yard where the fowls are
shut in, even If the place be an acre
in area. With the bees and the poul-
try well in hand, the keeper may still
have time to till garden. Chicks
and vegetables may not grow and
thrive in the same enclosure, but
there maybe side patch in which
the tiller at his work may be within
call II his broods require attention.
II he will plant raspberries with a
lavish hand, he will have shade for
his chicks, essential in the summer,
honey for the bees end for himself,
and fruit for his table or market. On
a snug place, with all these factors at
work for bread and butter and raj
ment with good health and quiet
conscience, what more can q man
