BY F. A. Mortimer.

Egg-eating hens are poor property
they are better cooked.
Milk, either sweet or sour, is thu
best of food, or drink, for both grow
ing chicks and laying hens.
In birds the liver appears to espe'
cially invite the deposits of scrofulous
matter and, unlike the human subject
softening sets in very rapidly and per.
foration of a portal vessel or rupture
of the capsule of the gland is soon
followed by hemorrhage of fatal
type. ..,
There is growing preference in
favor of the white breeds Of fowls.
the claim being that it is easier to
dress them for market than the dark
plEmaged kind as the white pinfeath-
ers do not show as readily, as is the
case with the birds of black plumage,
which requires careful hand picking.
rhe successful breeder is liberal
advertiser. You may have the best
stock in the world and you will keep
them and their eggs also, if you fail
to appreciate the use of printers ink
the successful business man keeps his
name before the public all the time.
Gather up the eggs carefully now
and save them-prices are getting
higher as the season advances. Next
month they will be very high, because
the mature fowls have been sent TO
market to make room for the early
pullets which have not yet begun to
lay. After while the old fowls will
have finished their moulting and will
begin TO lay as soon, as they again
become full in plumage. The early
moulting hens are profitable to keep
over, because they come in to lay
just at the time when eggs command
the highest market price.
The American Dairyman makes an
apparently novel though practical
suggestion, that cheese factories should
not only raise swine, but also use the
refuse for poultry. With the use OF
incubators, breeders, and the proper
facilities for poultry, quite a profit
could be derived from such an enter
prise.

On the majority Of the stylish cos
tunes Of the present appear the very
broad revers, or falling collar, OF
shoulier-bretelles--wings, man
would be inclined to call them. These
give very chic aud charming APP
pearance to the dress of o slender
woman. The revers fall far across
the shoulders now, the edges, in fact
reaching well beyond them. Indeed
what used to be called "revers" are
very commonplace articles by the side
Of these of the present, which set of
the head and shoulders SO wonder
fully. Under these wing-like revers
are full Queen Anne sleeves, with
huge pulls caught down with straps
or bands upon second coat sleeve
that is buttoned up the inside of the
arm to the elbow. The forearm
portion is banded at the wrists with
galloon or passementerie, like that
which covers the straps on the puffs
above.
Among the stylish fancies for
youthful wearers forthe early spring
gowns upon which the dress-makels
are already at work--are double
breasted round waists of plain cloth
or velvet, in dark colors of blue, gold
en- brown, dahiia or mytle green with
plain cloth skirts Tapped on the left |
side, and buttoned about half a yard
down. On some of these flaring
skirts are rows of trimming matching
the decorations on waist and sleeves,
on others there are merely the very
buttons with velvet-piped
button holes. The forearm of the
sleeve is made of cloth like the skirt.
An ideal bridal dress was made
entirely of plain white silk velvet, the
short bodice being cut blouse fashion,
md fastened at the waist with some
oft folds of Imperial satin. The
lightly pulled sleeves were adorned
N the shoulders with two "jockeys"
If old guipure lace, and band of the
anne fabric encirclcd the throat. A
lovel and dainty way of disposing of

he four cordons of buds and half
pened flowers, intermingled with a
ew green leeves, forming straight
ines from the waist to the feet; and

In the neighborhOod of the French

churchyard where many Of the nobll-
ity of the empire are buried. Some
of the graves have sunk to a level
with the sod, and in consequence
their identity has been lost. The

has piled them against the wall, be-

woman, bent and STOPPING, with

Ungallant-

Although American gentlemen
have the reputa tion in Europe OF al
lowing the female members OF their

they have not the name of possessing

compliments.
