The NuhS the Best.

It is probable that ninety-n nine out
of every 100 farmers in this country
have the habit Of Shelling off the ap-
parenJly defective grains OF the butts
and nubs of their seed corn, and
Plating only the tull shaped grains
from the middle Of the ear TIL re-
Gently this p actice has never been
questioned but actual experiments
sometimes reveals errors in our most
cherished traditions and customs
and SO it may be in the selection of
corn to plant An intelligent writer
in the American CultivatOr has an
agricultural item" that saves the
nubs and butts Of the ears that TOR
couple of centuries have been cast
aside as no good. Most farmers in
selecting their seed corn" says the
writer "break off the tip ends of the
ears, especially those where the
grains are either imperfect or NAL
formed. 1t is probably true that
corn from the impe,tectly developed
tips cannot produce strong, vigorous
plants. But there are some kinds OF
corn which, in favorable seasons, fill
to their tip end with sound, well de-
veloped grain. 1t is really larger and
heavier than the pinChed grains from
the middle OF the ear, where size is
diminished so as to make the regular
number of rows There are large
grains also at the butt Of the ear
Here the cob is larger and the grains
have greater room for development.
We remember an interesting expert
ment tried some Years ago by DR.. Z
l.. Sturdevant in which a long strip
Of corn was planted Just as it grew
on the ear. The plants from the
round, large grains at the tip were
strongest when they came UP and
maintained their leadership through
the season. Those from the butt,
which were also large, were next best,
and the middle part Of the cob pro-
duced the poorest plants. Yet we
have often seen both the tip and butt
broken off before Smelling for seed.
thus saving for planting what this
experiment showed TO be the poorest
grain on the ear for seed. .

Oh! What "a Surprise I!

What an agreeable one, too, is experienced by
the hitherto misguided individual who has
been ceaselessly but vainly dosing for years
past in the futile hope of curing constipation,
when drastic pills and potions aban-

without gripping or weakening, but always eff
fectually. Throw physic to the dogs - and
use this benign and thorough laxative, which
achieve results which astonish we'll as graf
ify those who use it. Not only a regular habit
of body, but complete digestion and assimIla-
tiOn are restored by its use 1t regulates the
liver and Kidneys and counteracts a tendency
to rheumatism. In no case where it is possible
to procure it should its use be delayed. Forti-

A SMALL KINDNESS.
The Gentle Little Woman Who Gave 1t

The Gentle Little woman Who Gave III
Received Big Reward.
Many years ago, when sewing ma
chimes were in their infancy, if in
deed they had been invented, little
elderly bachelor entered the parlor
Uf his boarding house and in a way
peculiar to himself made this re-
quest:
(Which of you ladies will hem a
couple Of handkerchiefs for me?"
There was well-bred sniff OF dis
approval, but not one asserting voice.
The only one that broke the silence
recommended him to take the hand
kerch efs to seamStreSs who at
tended to such work.
'It's pretty lonesome to have no
women lOlk belonging to yOu," said
the old bachelor "but guess | can
get along. Thank YOU, ladies, for
your kindness, and he bowed him
Self out.
At the same moment timil hand
detained him, and a low yO.ce said
Ia his ear:
"Leave them with me- II will
see that they are hemmed neatly. |
have friend who will do them-for
company"
Take them" said the old bach
elor gruity; "much obliged, Pm
sure"
She was a gcntlewoman, although
she seWed Tor a living. as all women
did in that day who did not teach
school.
She replied not to the jeers Of her
companions when she sat in the par
Tor at her work, except to say that it
was small thing to do tor fellow
being.
"But he is miser," they persisted.
Nevertheless the handkerchiefS were
hemmed, and returned to the owner,
who did not offer to pay for them,
but did within the year marry the
gentle soul who hemmed them.
The there Ifter of their married life
reads like d fairy story. Both have
passed away from the prosperity
which surrounded them, but in the
heart Of the city Of Boston there is
marble block that was built with the
accumulated interest of the OItune
Eequeathed to their son, who is no
other than Montgomery Sears the
millionaire. This story, unlike most
stories, is true.

One of the most curious spectacles
in the British Isles is the annual
fishing competition on the Avon.
The start at the last competition was
by pistol fire; and at the discharge,
the anglers Of the Avon, numbering
$50, having all drawn for places, cast
$50 loaded lines, bearing IAN equal
number of gentles or branding
worms, into the classic waters of the
river. The sun was bright, the
waters low, the weeds many, the
fish Indifferent, but the ESQ tished
bravely on for three hours, and, at
the end OF the day, the basket OF a
Mr. Horne was weighed out, as win
ner, with seven pounds, six and one
quarter ounce of fish. A Mr.. Paget
ran him a close second, more by luck

Cat Instinct.

A woman in New England not
long ago desiring to end che life of
her cat and three kittens, put laud-
anum in the milk. Not only did the
mOther-cat refuse to touch the milk.
but she boxed the ears Of the kittens
to keep them away from the saucer,
and then for fear of futher danger,
with much labor, she succeeded in
covering it up with a mat. The
proie tive instinct so touched her
owner, that the at and all Of her
brood were allowed to go iree.
A friend tells Us Of black cat who

see them put lid on GOX Just as he

this with large pastebOard box, AMI
he was in perfect fever Of excite
ment. He stood on top Of the box
and tried TO claw up the' lid; he
uShed, pulled and showed until at
last he succeeded in removing it
to permit him to see two
dolls inside. Having looked at them
for a moment, he walked away, lay

Meat lnIuSlOnS.

Cold made meat infuSiOns possess
very high nutritive value tor in
valids. remarks q medical contempo-
rary. The objection to them S thel1
raw flavor. which to many Is highly
disagIceable. The unpleasant taste
can however be disguised by adding
ordinary beef tea or the prepared eX-
tracts of meat; some patients prefer
to have them made sour by the addl-
tion of a slice Of lemon or small
quantity of clarct. The bloody ap-
pearance of these infusiOns is quite
likely to create an aversion, and,
when made from beef or mutton, it
is we'll to serve them in a red glass.
When made from veal the colora-
tion is much paIer; the meat off the
breast of a chicken, being nearly
white, yields liquid extract which
is almost colorlesS. In making cold
infuSlOnS, the meat should be minced
and added to halfits weight in water,
allowed to stand for two hours, and
then pressed through cloth. 1t
will be necessary to keep these liQ-
uids on ice, as they change quickly,
or, still better, to prepare hem as
needed and serve at once.
