break next morning. some one of the
Chippewa's early risers called out that
an empty boat was going over the
falls. A knot of interested spectators
soon flocked down to the rivers edge to
see the exciting event-opinions being
about equally divided as to whether
the light slSiff would live to reach the
cataract itself, or would go to pieces on
touching the rapids.
As we thus specialized, our idle talk
was suddenly replaced by a general
cry of horror, for, from the bottom of
what we had Thought an empty shell,
the head and shoulders of man all at
once became visible, and the next mo-
ment he rose to his feet. Beyond all
doubt the luckless being had only that
instant awakened.
Can human imagination conceive or

A HUSBANDS EPISTLE.
The Stenographer's Brilliant Reprodu'

The Stenographer's Brilliant Reproduce
tion OF Dictated Letter.
Mr.. Grippe travels for wholesale
house. When on trip in the "rooral
deestricts" recently he stopped at a
country hotel in which a stenographer
had opened an office for the convenience
of the public. He knew he ought to
write to his wife, but his time was so
taken up with business that it was just
train time, and he hastily dictated the
following to the young lady amanu-
ensis:
DEAR WIFE-Reach.d here all right and am
feeling like real trump I'm after business
this trip and will not return until after get it.
I'm burning my bridges behind me so that
cannot retreat. You will pardon this short let
ter but one sheet is all have time TO get of.
YOUR LOVING HUSBAND.
Instructing the stenographer to type
write the letter and mail it to his wife's
address, Mr.. Grippe hurried after his
train. When he reached home few
days ago his wife met him with a
strange look in her face.
Are you sober?" she asked.
Eyes, dear; quite So" he answered.
"And perfectly sane?"
why, to be sure"'
Nothing wrong with your mind at
alp
mo, and what in the world induces
you to ask such questions?'
Z well, your letter of a few days ago
led me to believe you had been drink
ing or were crazy" and she laid it be-
fore him:
DEAR WIFE-Reached here all right aud am
feeling like real chump. I'm after business
this trip and will return until l get it I'm
burning my brooches behind me so that can
not retreat. You will pardon this short letter,

Disinfecting Foul Places.

A Boston paper calls attention TO
the Importance at this season of get
ting rid of all vile smells about
dwellings, and makes this practical
suggestion: The article commonly
used to disinfect foul places is chic
ride of lime, but in reality it is not
of much value. 1t may, and gener-
ally does, remove bad smells. but the
cause still remains, as the chloride
simply destroys the gaseous emana-
tiOns. The much advertised disin-
fectants r usually catch.penny nos
trums and unworthy of notice. One
of the very best known disinfectants
is old fashioned .'copperas" or sui
plate Of iron, which can be had very
cheap. A barrel Of copperas would
probably weigh 300 pounds, and can
be purchased at wholesale for II cents
per pound. And every family ought,
especially in warm weather, to have
a supply OF it on hand. A couple at
handsful of copperas If thrown into
a bucket of water will soon dissolve,
and it can then be used freely, and ia
a valuable d%isinfectant. The best
plan is to fill a half barrel or keg
with water, and suspend within it a
moderate sized basketful of copreraa
In this way it dissolves more rapidly
than when thrown to the bottom of
the wooden vessel, and thus a supply
is always at hand ready for use.

Eussia,s Iln:dcmics.

There are some interesting and sug.
gestive figures in the Russian medical
census for 1890. some parts of which
have just been published in England.
The report deals apparently With

tion of 116. 49,, G10. Among these
is, 200 died of smallpox, d, 900 Of
scarlet fever, 10000 OF typhus and
40, 900 of diphthcria--which lattcl
disease is epidemic in Russia. The
death rate is 37.2 per 1000, birth
rate 4G.s. There are, in the whole
empire, 3,969 public hospitals, 10, sos
qualified medical practitioners. H..
$50 male and female feldschers, and
1926 professional nurses. 1t appears
upon calculation that there IS one
medical practitioner to 10. 900 people
in European Russia, one to 81, 900 i6
the Caucasus. one to %, 900 in Siberis
and one to 1903. 500 in Central Asia.
The death rate for these parts is not
given, possibly because it is not
known or calculable. 1t is evident,
of course, that medical men must be
much more common in the towns thar
in the less thickly populated districts,
and there are said 10 be 500 districts
in whic I there is no doctor at all.
Nevertheless, the report declares that
the death rate is only 1872 per ], 1000

The aIillionnirc's Illness.

An enterpr!sing German had tried in
vain to make fortune in many ways.
Luck was always against him; and at
last, to crown his misfortunes, he
fell i'll. But on what the doctor de-
clared to be his death-bed an idea
with millions in 1t struck him. He
sent FOR a lawyer and dictated a will,
in which he bequeathed vast sums of
money to his wife. his family, and
various charitable institutions.
The lawyer. a notorious talker,
spread the tidings, and great was the
chagrin of numerous acQuaintances
to think how they had neglected to
pay court to the diving millionaire.
But u strategist wasn't SO i'll as
the doctor had supposed, and pres
emily he recovered. Then it was that
fortune hunters begged him to invest
their money, urged him to accept
loans, and gave him a credit second
to none in the city. At first he coyly
refused these f~lattcring testimonials,
but was gradually forced to relent,
and having lived in clover for q CON
siderable time has just failed for an
enormous sum.

Hints for Dasrymen.

THE Babcock test is revealing the
true condition of things in the dairy.
The wise dairyman provides soil
ing crops to patch out the dry pastures
during the summer time.
IT costs more to bring a COW back
to full flow of milk in summer than
1T does to keep her up to it.
YOU can prevent cows kicking by
buckling a strap tightly around the
body just forward of the udder.
No CALF should be raised for dairy
purpose from a COW OF weak constltu-
tion or one with organic disease.
BULKY food should always be fed
with concentrated food, to avoid pos
siblc discomfort and injury from the
latter.
THE bestdairymen practice the best
economy in feeding when they feed
all the COW will eat up clean and no
more.
IT is poor economy to turn a herd
of cows into a large pasture and allow
them to roam about all day, when all
they get is exercise.
UNcLEANL1NEss in milking, not
cooling, the milk quickly after milk
ing, bad fodder, bad air in stables and
disease in COWS are causes of tainted
milk.
THERE is a vast difference in mich
COWS. A dairyman in Delaware
County has cows in his herds testing
from one-half Of 1 per cent. OF butter
fat to 8 per cent
JERSEY cows surprised thcirowners
even, in the cheese test at Chicago,
in that they produced the largest pro-
duct in competition with the Guern-
seys and ShOrthOrns.

The Farm as an Educator.

The farm Is the chief and hest
school for the training of capable
men in the country, writes Albert
Shaw in the Review of Reviews.
Farm lads are learning real things.
while the town boys too often are
merely studying in books the pale re.
Election of things. The farmer hoy
knows early about land and soils;
about crops and their rotations; about
n seasons and the weather and the
signs OF the sky. He grows up in
familiar acquaintance with animals.
He owns u dog, he has a favorite
horse, he rides wild colts, he feeds
the horned cattle. He helps in the
planting and in the harvesting. lie
is usually verscd in wood lore and
knows trees and plants, birds, souri,
rcls, rabbits and groundhogs. He
hunts with Il gun and goes fishing.
He develops superb health. He helps
repair the fences. He learns about
tools and masters the complexities of
farm machinery. In short, the range
OF his practical knowledge becomes
very great. There is more reading
done in our farm nclghborhoods than
in our cities; and the good typical
farm home has its newspapers always
and its magazines quite frequently.
Nor are the district schools so infe-
rior, though their quality varies much
from year to year. With Il good
teacher in charge, the country dis
trict S school is better than the city
graded school, because it is more free
from mere machinery and better
adapted to develop the individuality
of pupils. Hundreds OF mon and
women of high standing and wide
experience to-day are thankful for the
little wooden country school-house OF
their childhood days, in which the
educational methods pursued were
infinitely more scientific and valua-
BILE than those now followed in many
of our city schools.
