Sioux Indians at Crow Creek agency, South

grade required was "No. spring." at sixty
pounds to the bushel. This Is very higt

Wheat Displacing Oats.

The high price of corn and the low price
OF wheat have caused 10 little experimental
tion in the use of wheat as ration for
horses. In the big stables OF Armour Co.,
Chicago, mixture of half wheat, half corn
was tried some weeks ago, and It Is re-
ported that the experiment has given COM
plete satisfaction. Feed men are quoted as
saying that not half the Ivory stables In
Chicago are using oats now, but are feeding
wheat or mixtures instead.

HOUSEHOLD DUTIES AND GYMNASTICS.

A doctor who has many of the
weaker sex among his patients declares
that to keep both spirits and complex
ion in good condition, and to preserve
grace. strength and agility, there is
no gymnasium so valuable, no exer.
else more beneficial in its result, than
the vigorous round of household
duties, sweeping, busting, making
beds and polishing silver and brasses
and Washing dishes. He furthermore
avows that single year of such work
will do more for woman's complex
ion than all the powders and lotions
that ever were made. Which is oil
well enough, though the assertions
are trife time-worn, providing the
woman thus prescribed for has sufi-
cient strength to get through her
round of sweeping and washing and
polishing and is not hereby turned
into drudge. If she is too tired to
get ready to 60 out for brisk walk,
or attend q lecture or concert, if she
cannot sit down with fresh, alert
mind to read and assimilate, there
isn't word of truth in it. It is true
that any exercise which is Immediate
ly and perceptibly productive of use
full results is more interesting and in
vigorating than mechanically per-
formed series of gymnastics. But the
truth is more women need to be urged
to refrain from overwork than from
aziness.-Philadelphia Press.

in schools; fowls of the air from the

some bold and rugged mountain, down
to the beautiful humming bird who
dives into the honey suckle that it
may draw from its sweetness-all move
in focks. But we seek effectually for
friendship, association elsewhere. We
find it existing among the angels who
are higher IN the order of being than
