A FAMOUS PHYs1c1AN's TESTIMONY
Sir Andrew Clark says that health is
that state of the body in which all it's
functions go on without notice or OBJ
servation, in which existence is felt to
be pleasure and in which it is kind
of joy to see, to hear, to touch, to live.
That is the choice blessing we call
health and none on earth is choicer,
or alas, 80 rare. Now let me say that
is state which cannot be in any way
benefited by alcohol; it may bear it
sometimes without obvious injury, hut
benefited by it, never. Icall perfect
health the loveliest thing in this
world. And alcohol, even in small
doses will take the bloom off; will in
jure the perfection of loneliness of
health, both mental and moral. go
still further and say alcohol is not on
ly no helper of work, but a hinderer
and every man that comes to the
front of profession in London is
marked by this one characteristic.
That the more busy he gets the less
in the shape of alcohol he takes, and
his excuse is he cannot take it and do
his work. II am the general physi-
clan IN the largest hospital in London.
I do not desire to make it a::strong
case. I desire to make it true case
when I say that in going the rounds
of my hospital wards, seven out of ev-
cry ten persons owed their ill health
to alcohol. I do not say this seventy
five per cent we're drnnkards, but day
by day, just as the grass grows and
you cannot see it, this little excess,
often little one, is doing its work.
It upsets the stomach, the stomach
upsets the other organs, and bit by
bit uder this fair, genial and jovial
outside the constitution is being
sapped." This is the truth concern
ing more than three-fourths of the
disorders of what we call fashionable
life. There is another side to this
question that I call the awful side. It
is that the use of alcohol becomes q
part of mans very nature, and he
hands it down to his children as part
and parcel of their very being. What
are we to think of those that are born
drunkards? How can any man think
without dread of this terrible fact; for
fact it is as sure as there is an exist
ence, that this desire is becoming part
of his nature, and that he is handing
it down to generations yet unborn.
Thus the iniquity of the fathers are
visited upon the children and we have.
only to look around us to see that
scripture fulfilled.

Grass for Dairy Cows.

Grass that will produce an excellent
quality of milk and butter must be
good for the production of an excellent
quality OF meat, for milk and butter
quickly reflect the character of the feed
and are much more susceptible to taint
from improper food. Milk is intended
by nature for the nourishment and
growth Of the offspring, and the food
which will produce the best milk must
also produce the best growth of the an
imal. Grass is the natural food for the
production of milk, and it is the natural
food for the growth and strength of our
domestic animals. Hence, when we
improve the quantity and quality of our
grasses for piIsturage and hay, we also
necessarily improve the quality of ouf
animals and the quantity and quality
of the milk and meat we get from them.

Farmers Should Not Be Asked to Pay for

The following lately appeared in d
Peoria paper:
'The Peoria Bicycle club has undertaken to
assist in educating the people OF central Illinois
to the necessity of good roads Az their own

tity OF road literature, including the periodical
Good Roads and propose to keep up running

Against which q farmer in the Coun-
try Gentleman enters a just and manly

to incur any share of the expense of do
ing the work. They propose to keep
up a running fire against the farmers,

paid for by small farmers, who only
drive over the road occasionally, while
the road is in almost constant use by

one of our large cities. Some way
should be devised to compel the dwell
ers in our cities to bear a portion of the
expenses of suburban drives. The most
equitable way would seem to be for the
state to do large share of the work of
building leading thoroughfares into
suburban districts. In the meantime
it would be well for wheelmen to
change the direction of their running
fire: farmers, ETC., already have their
hands about full. 1t is always easier
to advocate the expenditure of other
peoples money than it is to put our
hands into our own pockets"

Bones for Plants.

1t isn't worth while to let the odds
and ends of bones go to waste, nor YET
let them be gathered by the scavengers
who infest the country and make good
living by getting them together and
selling them, while taking anything
else about the place that comes in their
way. Barrels of bones could be saved
yearly by even u small family, and il
only requires a few hours boiling in
strong lye to soften them SO that they
may be crushed with the back of the
spade. Properly composted, they make
an excellent feed for plants of all kinds,
their stimulating influence being felt
throughout the season.

Cut on branches just Beyond tho En-

81. Bromley, Cogswcll, N. d., writes
TO the Orange Judd Farmer: ",rhc en-
argement at the base of limbs on trees
Is natures work; it serves as brace to
the branches while growing and has u
great amount of healing property
stored up in it to cover the wounds
where limbs are broken or cut off. My
rule for pruning trees is to cut off the
branches nearly straight across, just
beyond this enlargement BY SO doing
the wounds will not be half as large
as when cut close to the tree and they
will heal much quicker. Trees trimmed
In this way do not look as neat as
when the branches are cut off close,
but consider it safer and better. ]

SOUNDS AT NIGHT.
Theories Accounting for Their Being
Louder Than at DAYTIME.

Theories Accounting for Their Being
Louder Than at Daytime.
Have you ever noticed the acoustic
phenomenon of greater audibility of
sounds after nightfall? There have
been hundreds of attempts to account
for this singularity in the matter OF
sounds, the theories being almost as
numerous as the the theorists them
selves. The ancients noticed that the
intensity of all sounds was increased
ut night, and ascribed the phenomenon
to various causes-some almost as alb
surd as the reasons (?) assigned by Ger.
tain modern scientists.
One writer says: ''In crowded cities,
or in their vicinity, the effect is no
doubt due to the fact that all, or nearly
all, animated beings are at rest" This
theory, however, was soon proven to be
erroneous and inapplicable, as was also
the ''wind theory" which ascribed the
cause toa favorable direction of certain
night breezes. Another author, whose
rank among the philosophers was spe-
cially mentioned as being particularly
high, declared that the sound seemed
magnified because of the cessation of
the humming of insects, the hush of
the feathered songsters, ETC. But it re-
mained for the great Baron Won Hum
boldt to explode all these theories. He
declared that ON the Orinoco. where
the hum and buzz of insects is much
greater at night than during the day,
and where the breezes do not rise until
after sunset, all sounds independent of
those mentioned in the last few lines
above are three times louder at night
than during the day.
In giving his reasons Humboldt says:
81 ascribe the phenomenon to the
perfect transparency and uniform
density of the air which can only exist
at night after the heat of the ground
has been uniformly ditfused through
the atmosphere. When the rays of the
sun have been beating on the ground
during the day currents of hot nir OF
different temperatures are constantly
ascending. The air thus ceases to be u
uniform medium and is, therefore. a
very poor conductor of sounds. st.
