pErR AND nnranr,s DISEASE

AZ recent meeting OF the Alumni Asso-
riation OF the Medlco-C -Chirurglcol Collere I'm
Philadelphia, Professor Morse commented
upon the alarming increase OF Brlght's dis
eAse, wherever beer is sold and used. Hede-
lared that "We are rapidly becoming a
nation OF beer-drinkers, and tho insidious
mold gained by that incurable kidney affec-
ION known as Bright's disease threatens in
time TO largely decimate the ranks o5 Tho
beer-drinkers." He adds that ''it has been
conclusively proven that beer and lead pos-
9ning are tho principal factors I'm pro3noinp
Brlghts disease" and says that "beer should
not be drank at all, but IL used, should never
be drawn through n lead pipe" This is a
timely scientific warning against the danger
involved In beer-drlnking which should be
proclaimed and needed throughout the lnnd

MARKING SHEEP.

The best ear marks for sheep are the
metal nickel plated loops, upon which
are stamped the owners name and the
numbers of the sheep. To distinguish
the ewes from the other sheep they
may be marked in the right ear, the
others in the left. An easy way to
further distinguish any special sheep
is to put the marks in perpendicularly
in the ears, the others being put in
horizontally. The numbers are used
in the record book of those sheep that
are so desired TO be distinguished. -

cut back so early in the season. Then
when brought into the houss they
should be kept as cool as possible not
to freeze.
Some persons do not SOW the seed
until the season is so far advanced
that they may be sown in open ground.
They grow all summer where sown,
but are potted early in the fall, being
trimmed back at that time. They do
not bloom quite so early as where the
seed is sown earlier, and the plants
not disturbed by fall potting, but some
as fine blossoms as 1 ever saw have
been grown on plants so treated. -

POULTRY FOR RUNDOWN FARMS.


New England has always used the
raw material of other States and man
ufactured goods of all kinds in which
her people have excelled. With fewer
advantages as an agricultural country,
yet she excels in yield, in proportion
to area cultivated, in many crops that
are grown extensively elsewhere.
Massachusetts, produces more corn per
acre than any other State, but it pays
her people better to grow articles that
bring the highest prices in market.
So far as pure breeds of poultry are
concerned, New England leads ali other
sections, and she derives an enormous
sum from that source alone, while her
farmers also get the best prices for
dressed carcasses and eggs.
OF late years it has been largely ad-
vertised that many farms in some sec
tions of New England no longer pay,
and that their owners have ceased to
take an interest in them, even going
80 far as to abandon them in cases
that have been noticed. The cause
assigned is that farm products are
grown 80 cheaply in the West that our
farmers cannot compete with the West
ern farmers. But our farmers can use
the cheap foods, however, and change
them into more salable products. 1t
may be mentioned that SO far as the
quality of the soil is concerned, poul-
try can be made a speciality on the
poorest or the best, and the frozen
stock of the West has never interfered
with prices in the East. Strictly fresh,
nearby eggs and choice carcasses can
not be brought East, while consumers
will not discard the good for the in
ferior. Mirror and Farmer.

is an exceedingly simple one. Lay
the crepe on table with piece of

1t will, perhaps, require a little stretch of

tne head OF this article are Of the same in
dlvidual and yet they are truthful sketches
made from photographs, taken only a few
months apart, OF O very much esteemed citi-
zen or ullnois-Mr. c. II. Harris whose ad-
dress Is No. 1,623 Second Avenue, Rock
Island, Ill. The following extract from o let

velous change in his personal appearance. He

my friends were sure 1t was a case of death,
until commenced taking a second bottle OF
Golden Medical Discovery when became
able TO sit up and tho cough was very much
better, and the bleeding from my lungs
stopped, and before had taken six bottles Of
the Golden Medical Discovery my cough
ceased and was a new man and ready for

my fellcw-men TO recommend 70 them the
Golden Medical Discovery which saved my
life when doctors and all other medicines
talled TO do me any good.

tograpns are faithfully reproduced at the
head Of this article.
Mr.. Harris's experience in the use Of Gold
on Medical Discovery" Is not an exceptional
one. Thousands of eminent people in all
parts OF the world testify, In Just as emphatic
language, to its marvellous curative powers
over all chronic bronchial, throat and lung
diseases, chronic nasal catarrh, asthma, and
kindred diseases
Eminent physicians prescribe "Golden
Medical Discovery" when any of their dear
ones lives are imperilled by that dread dis
ease, Consumption. Under such circum-
stances only the most reliable remedy would
be depended upon. The following letter Is TO
the point. 1t is from an eminent physician of
Stamps, Lafayette Co., Ark. He SAYS |:
Consumption is hereditary in my wife's
family some have already died with the dis
ease. My wife has a sister, Mrs L. A.
Cleary, that was taken with consumption.
She used Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discov-

TEMPERANCE.


Sir Benjamin Richardson, in an address on
"Athletio Life" says that abstinence from
alcoholic fluid is absolutely necessary. "As
long as you are IN course OF training don't
touch the hurttul thing. II will undermine
all the qualities on which You depend for
success, will iniure your precision, your de-
cislon, your presence Of mind, and your
endurance"
