New YORK, June 2s.-The tendency
of prices at the stock exchange was
downward to-day, the big strike against
the Pullman Palace Car Company, in
volying as 1t does nearly the entire rail-
way system Of the West. and the un-
favorable May reports of the Pennsyl-
vania, Erie and Reading Companies
having created 8 more bearish feeling.
London changed front and sold some OF
the stocks bought during the past few
days The sales for foreign account are
estimated at from 5000 to 7 600 shares
and included st. Paul, Louisville,
Atchison and Union Pacific
The refusal Of the governing commit
tee OF the stock exchange to list North
ern Pacific fives at the request OF the
Adams committee had no influence on
the securities OF the company for the
reason that the decision was qualified
by the empowering OF the stock list
com mittee to admit the receipts to deal
ings when majority of the bonds are
deposited with the Adams party. The
stock list committee decided week
ago to list the rec ipts, but the govern
ing committee yesterday did not ap-
prove the decision. While the bears on
the general list had the advantage to-
day. they were not aggressive by any
means. The drop in sterling exchange

WINTER CARE OF IMPLEMENTS.

When farmers can get only fifty
three cents per bushel for wheat-that
was the amount received by some of
our st. Louis County farmers for good
winter wheat-it will not do to leave
the mower or reaper at the end of the
last round of last seasons harvest.
Nor will it do to leave the plow and
harrow where last used, either in the
furrow or turned up on the handles.
Timbers bent by steam will lose their
artificial form or shape when exposed
to all the weathers of the season. Al
most all farm tools or implements have
thus received an artificial shape for
the better adaptation 10 the labor for
which they were constructed. This
being the case, no farmer can afford
to leave his tools and implements with
out protection.
If no better means can be afforded
by way of a regular tool house or shop,
few poles and crutches can be
placed as to receive a covering of
marsh or swamp hay or of rye OF
wheat straw. Often this can be made
rs a sort of '1eanto" to stable, and
it can be made tight and secure from
wet and afording additional warmth
and support for general stabling.
There is no time to lose to make
things snug in this direction.
1t Is granted that nowadays a good
farm wagon or a reaper or mower or a
hay rake can be had for about half the
cost of the same article a dozen wears
ago, but that is no reason why they
should not be taken care of. "a pen
ny saved is a penny earned" or, as
Poor Richard has it, "Take care of the
pennies and the pounds will take care
of themselves. st. Louis Republic.

Doxr's FOR THE WINDOW GARDEN.

Don't forget that the plants will re-
quire plenty of fresh air on sunny
days, or they will resent the change
from their summer quarters.
Don't leave the door or window
open too long, unless the weather is
very mild, or the plants will become
chilled.
Don't allow direct draught on the
plants, especially if the air is cold.
Admit it through door or window at
some distance from the plant shelves.
Don't give too much water or try to
force the plants. Give them time to
become accustomed to their winter
quarters.
Don't forget to search for the cracks
that will let in the keen air. Stuff
them with folded newspapers.
Don't be sorry TO give your only
rose or geranium blossom to your
sick neighbor. 1t may do her more
good than medicine.
Don't fail to keep a kettle of water
on the top of the sitting room stove or
the water pan filed in the furnance.
Don't worry about the moisture
being unhealthy when it is necessary
to sit in the room with the plants.
You will be benefited as well as the
flowers.
Don't fail to use stimulants on your
Gala, and plenty of warm water if you
want quantities of the beautiful lilies.
Don't forget to look at the bulbs
which have been placed in the dark to
form roots. Some of them may be
ready to bring into the light for
blooming.
Don't be discouraged if you can't
make the plants bloom while the days
are short and there is little sun. You
will notice great change in few
weeks.

A Double Fish.

A double fish, or rather two fishes
Joined together by a growth similar to
the connection between the Siamese
twins, was caught at Creve Coeur Lake
recently under peculiar circumstances.
William Schaefer, of the Grand Bill.
lard Hall, and his friend Billie Ben
nett, before going on a fishing trip to
Creve C@ur, made a friendly wager,
by the terms of which the one who had
the least success should, on their re-
turn, entertain the other at dinner.
The score stood fifty-one to fifty in
Billie's favor, when Schaefer's line
tautened and he landed jack salmon.
On examining the fish he was astound-
ed to learn that his catch was freak.
There were two fishes, perfect in every
way, between whom there was
growth which bound them together.
The growth was just below the gills.
THAT ties us, said Bennett.
81 guess not" Schaefer replied.
II have two fishes here. This makes
me fifty-two to your fifty-one.
'But you only caught one, argued
Bennett.
"How's that? Icaught them both, 4"
urged Schaefer.
"Hod" Stevens, the superintendent
of the lake, was asked to decide
whether the piscatorial dual should be
counted as unit or more. Stevens
listened to the arguments of both and
acknowledged his inability to satisfy
them on the point, and suggested that
the matter be left to old John Morgan,
who had been a fisherman at Creve
Ceur Lake since 40. Morgan, after
hearing both sides, decided in Schae-
fer's favor
''But," said Bennett, 'we were
only to count fish caught with hook.
Now, only one of these fish bit at the
bait The hook was only in one
iish's mouth.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
mrs or LAMP LORE.

Lamp wicks should have the charred
part rubbed OFF with rag kept for
that purpose. They should very sell
dom be cut. They should not be used
SO long that the webbing becomes
tight and non-porous.
Lamps should be kept filed with
oil. II is bad for the wick and burner
when the oil left over from one even
ing's reading is made to do duty q Sec
ond time.
The tank should be filed again.
About once a month the wick should
be removed, the burners unscrewed
and boiled in little water in which
common washing soda has been dis
solved. This will remove the almost
imperceptible coating of dust and
grease that forms on the brass.
The lamp chimney should be washed
in warm, soapy water each day, mop
made especially for such work being
used. When dried it should be pol
ished with soft newspaper or chsmois.

IMPROVING COMMON cows.

The first effort at improvement of
COWS is to feed them in the best man
ner. If they are kept for dairy pur-
poses the feed should be of the best
clover hay, with from four to ten
pounds of mixed cornmeal and bran
daily in two feeds. The quantity of
food should be gagged by the appetite
of each COW and lis perfect digestion.
II the grain is wasted in the manure
the ration should be reduced until the
point of complete digestion is found,
and then the digestion should be cul-
tivated by gradually increasing the
food as it is seen to be fully digested.
If butter is the desired product the
food may be enriched with proper
tion of oil-meal. As the food is re-
turned in quantity of butter, it may
be slowly increased until the ultimate
productive point is reached, and this
should be extended, if possible, by
gradual steps. Thus the COW will gain
n habit Of feeding and producing
well, and then comes the breeding for
progeny Of improved kind. A pure
Jersey bull is to be used if butter il
wanted, and il milk pure Holstein or
Ayrshire. The calves should be
weRned from the first, and fed after
the fourth day on warm skim milk !;
when a month old littIe of the grain
food of COW is given, rs it will eat it,
and this gradually, but slowly, in
creased. The warm milk is fed five or
six months, by which time fine,
large calf will be made. In every way
possible the calf should be encouraged
to eat the best Of food, that it may be
come Il strong, healthy animal, able
to turn the most food into growth
while young, and into milk afterward.
Then, in time, this young animal be-
comes a COW, and the same plan is fol
lowed mp. In o few years the herd
will become as valuable as a pure-bred
one. at only a fourth or less of the
cost This is how farmers make Their
work most profitable by improving al

DON'T TOUCH LIQUOR.

II you are the father OF family, do not
touch intoxicating drinks. Why? Because
your example may be the means OF causing
misery here and hereafter TO those who look
up TO you as their guide and example. II
you are a mother, do not use il yourself nor
allow its use in your home IL you value the
manhood Of your sons or the womanhood OF
your daughters. II you are young woman
do not offer 1t TO your gentleman friends,
and IL tempted to do so just think for mo-
ment OF the terrible responsibility You as
sumo. The glass you offer may be the means
ofstartiDg the young man on the downward
road to ruin and death. He may know his
weakness, but from anxiety TO appear we'll in
your eyes, or from lack OF moral courage TO
refuse anything proffered by the hand Of
youth and beauty, takes that which, under
other circumstances, he would shun.
Many young man dates his downfall
from the social glass taken under the par
entail roof OF In the house OF some friend OF
the family. Do not try 10 induce the man
who, from SD experience knows his weak
ness, to break his pledge or resolution 10 alb
stain. This is often done thoughtlessly.
from a mistaken idea Of friendship or socia-
biiiy, and without thought OF the possible
consequences that may follow.
Do not, however, fall into the error OF
assuming that every man who takes pledge
is necessarily a reformed drunkard, or one
who needs any special restraint on his appe-
lite for liquor. On the contrary, many re-
strain themselves in that way simply as
example for others to follow, hoping thereby
10 save some weaker brother.
Do not keep liquor in your house on the
specious plea OF necessity for use In case Of
sickness that necessity is rarely experienced,
and but too often Is merely an excuse for
oyer-indulgence. Do not imagine you will
be unable TO sleep without a "night-cap" or
awake without an "eye-opener. Sacred

How the Nose Works.

In ordinary respiration the nose
recognizes only pronounced odors,
since the filaments of the olfactory
nerve are distributed only in the up
per third of the lining membrane of
its fosse, and in ordinary breathing
the air passes directly through the
lower half of these cavities. Hence,
a modified respiratory effort-a quick,
forced inspiration or sniff lis usu-
ally necessary in order to bring air
carrying odoriferous particles to the
olfactory nerve endings.
Nevertheless, whenever air mixed
with odorous gases and noxious par
ticles is inhaled through the nose
during few successive ordinary res
pirations, the olfactory sense is
awakened to n knowledge of their
presence through the law of diffusion
of gases, in virtue of which the odor-
GUS particles are conveyed to the
superior fosse of the nose, and thence
to the terminal filaments of the oil
factory nerve. Thus, to a certain ex-
tent, the sense of smell is preservative
of health. New York Commercial
Advertiser.

The Kings Death.CIock.

In the courtyard of the palace of
Versailles is u clock with one hand,
called 'L' 'Horloge de In Mort du Roi. "
II contains no works, but consists
merely of face in the form of sun,
surrounded by rays. On the death of
n king the hand is set TO the moment
of his demise, and remains unaltered
till his successor has reioined him in
the grave. This custom originated
under Louis XIII, and continued till
the revolution. 1t was revived on the
death of Louis XVIII, and the hand
still continues fixed on the precise
moment of that monOrch's death. -
