NI.NUS M AEEIOANIT
lie Tale ID. NJ, Luther Is wholly
Res DOnstble For,

Many remarkable tales are laid at the
hcn-housc door of chickens OF the male
and female persuasion.
Hens have been krown to crow and
their gallant gallinactous attendants
have even been accused OF sctting-prob-
ably when thoroughly hen pccked. In
fact, the agricultural editor OF luE CIT
zen has long maintained that he once
owned hen that knew at least five
different words, and afterwards died of
chckcn-poX,
But all this palcs into absolute insig-
nlIicance when compared to a statement
brought from Caution, y, G., by ID. Nj.
Luther, esq. lie positively declares that
he saw a roostcr--a plain, everyday
roostcr--swim about thirty feet to an
island i'll Pigeon river and then swim
back Why he swan back has not vet
been explained, but it all happened on
the Fourth OF July, which accounts for
a heap OF things.

The afternoon is the longer half of the
working day. To eat heavy meal at
noon without being able to nap an hour,
is the mistake that too many women
make. Men don't count. Nature fitted
them with strong systems and a quick
digestive apparatus If foods like pastry,
meats, fresh bread and pickles, that take
irom three to five and half hours to
digest, are eaten, the stomach levies on
the vital forces and the brain and muscles
get sleepy and stupid. With piece of
well done toast and half pint oil cocoa,
chocolate or hot milk a woman can keep
up her strength and keep her wits sharp
ened till tea time Another excellent
lunch is a bowl OF bread and milk.
Toasted bread is half digested; so is crust.

Peaches are a tonic, an aperient, food

they are meat and medicine A good
meal may be made on cut peaches, with
sugar and cream, bread and butter.
After meal of this variety person will
feel more like attending to the duties Of
the afternoon than if he or she INDUCED
in heavy oods. Peaches are good before
breakfast and after dinner; they are good
for the digestion, good for the blood and
good for the complexion. Some people
eat them without cream or sugar and
with good results The fruit is so rich in
sugar and acid that it preserves its flavor
long while. but to get the full benefit it
should be enteu as soon as il is cut Red

The secret of easy, rapid and successful
ironing is to have the clothes well and
evenly dampened and the irons very hot.
The dampness prevents scorching, and the
hot iron smooths and polishes without the
fatiguing bearing down and repeated
passes necessary with one which does not
hiss when touched with the moistened
finger To bring out the pattern OF
embroideries lay down on a strip of thick
blanket and iron on the wrong side. If
the newly washed sheets, evenly folded,
are laid one by one under the smaller
articles as they are ironed, it will not be
necessary to iron them on their own
account.
