HEALTH HINTS.

INCEssANT ToIL.-The folly of con-
slant unceasing work is meyer com
pretended nor realized until serious
damage to health brings the toiler
to a standstill. Then, when too late,
he begins to rest. Every man,
woman or child, no matter how
strong, how well fitted mentally and
physically to withstand and combat
fatigue, should not go on and ON and
crowd into each day the labor of two

The late brilliant DR.. Goiding
Bird, Of London, furnished a notable
example of the folly of overwork.
He fully realized his mistake and

YOU is this: Never mind at what

Otherwise you may find yourself al

Any worker may proftably take
to heart this eminent doctors advice
VENTILATIoN.-The healthy atmos

air is changed to the extent of 5000
cubic feet yer hour per adult inmate
The air admitted need not be cold
warmed air, so long as it is fresh, is
of course preferable to cold air il
winter, but in some way the air mus
be brought in if we are to continue
in health. There are various ways
Of doing this. One is by admitting
cold air so that it is directed upwarC
toward the ceiling, where the air o
the room Is at the highest tempera
ture; the cold stream is then heateC
in its passage as it falls to the lowe
level for breathing. But in larg'

Another form of fraud is perpe-
trate9 by means Of advertisements
so/worded as to mislead the public.
Persons answering them think that
for twenty-five cents they are to have
watch or some other valuable ar
ticle, when in fact they merely get
some illustrated catalogue. An ex-
tensive fraud has recently been
carried on by certain persons claim
ing to be commission merchants or
produce dealers, who send out their
circulars and price-lists offering
prices higher than the market, when
in fact they have no commission
house, and probably only desk room
in shop or saloon; and the goods
shipped to them are received and
sold 3 t any price obtainable, no re-
turns whatever being made.
Some time since appeared a very
glowing advertisement Of book

people, both gentlemen and ladies

Soil Fertility.

The question Of soil fertility as ~
relates to agricultural practice isP
many sided one; and one side has tol
do with the elements Of fertility
borne away from the farms in crops.
1t is said that ton of butter con-
tains elements of fertility worth but
forty-eight cents as such; while ton
Of cheese has about twenty dollars
worth of these elements In high
priced commodities these elements
are not of so much relative import
ance, but in low priced ones their
value may be the ruling considera-
ton both in buying and in selling.
For example, in wheat bran the IN
telligent farmer bases his calculation
of profit in a measure upon the value
as fertilizer ofthe nitrogen and phos-
nhoric acid which it contains; and
in selling hay and straw from the
farm he must not neglect to remem
Der that he is selling in hay often al
a low price the fertility that he must
re-purchase in pAosphates at a higf
price. The amount of these elements
can be readily determined by con
sulting tables of analysis. 1t is tru'
that this fertility is not all available
the fist year, and it may not be SAT-
to Count it at the same price as tn
tsIvailable elements in phOsphates,ye
they must be counted at one-half o
the commercial value of the latter
they are an important element il

ire seems to be a growing ten
y ey in some parts Of our dairy
regions to get out Of dairying and
try something else. The labor con-
nected with the work is so combining
that it is difficult to be away from
home without much inconvenience.
and those having to make their own
butter find that when labor has to-
be hired it is almost impossible to-
obtain it, and so have become dis
couraged and are turning their at
tention to something else requiring
less labor. Some, seeing hay was
in good demand, are trying hay, and
are finding to their cost the mistake
made; the failing crop viii soon show
thsm that their attention must be
turned in some other direction.
Others have tried sheep and find
It more satisfactory. Like every
thing new, mistakes are made, and
the great one is in trying to keep
too many. Where a proper number
are kept and given the best of atten-
tion, they pay well. Lambs have 70

~rool secondary matter Lambs

or October. To illustrate, a neigh

a nair of twins gaining three and q
half pounds each per week. These
were dropped about the first OF Feb

the ewes have the whole season to

JACKSON c. H.. w. VA, Oct. l.
To the Editor oCths REGISTER.
SIR: The first large and enthusiastic
meeting OF the campaign that has been
held in this county assembled yester-
day at Kentuck. The character of the
assemblage was that of a Democratic
rally and barbecue. There was a vast
audience OF 1000 or 1850 people out.
Three large beeves were slaughtered
and roasted for the occasion, and the
good ladies' Of the neighborhood pre-
pared thousands of loaves OF bread,
cakes and pastry for the multitude.
Mr.. Holly G., Armstrong, Chairman OF
the County Executive Committee, called
the meeting to order and named DR..
John M. Bachtell as chairman, who in
q few pointed and vigorous remarks,
such as the doctor can so appropriately
do, introduced the distinguished Demo-
cratic orator, Judge John M. Clam
fit, of Illinois, who for one hour
held the vast outdoor audi
ence entranced with his matchless
oratory. He arraigned the Republican
party for its unjust and iniquitous tariff
laws, paid his respects to the Infamous
aud damnable Force bill, in telling and
forcible language. The Judges speech,
although it was short, made so for the
reason that he was not well, was well
received and will bring forth good
fruit. The chairman then introduced
the local candidates, all OF whom made
a few remarks. The Hon. James Cape
hart, Congressman from this District
and candidate for reelection, and whom
we predict now, will succeed himself by
very handsome majority, was present
shaking hands with the people. The
meeting was a grand success in every
particular, and the Democrats in this
county are ready for the contest and
will do their best for the whole ticket.
