The Adhesive Plaster.

In one family where there are num-
erous sideahces, backaches, bruises
and sprains, the porous plaster has
come to be recognized institution.
Its putting on is generally accepted
with delight, but when it comes to the
taking of, the "oh dears!" "don'ts!"
and cries of pain are many and en-
phatic. Even after the plaster is
pulled off, there is layer of adhesive
gum on the skin that is struggled with
in all sorts of ways. Sometimes the
razor is employed for scraping; some-
times sharp knife is brought into
use, and again soft warm cloth Is
pressed over the spot, and when this
has firmly attached itself the peeling
process goes on. Those who have oc-
casion to use the application will find
immediate relief from their annoy
ance, if they will, after raising one
side of the plaster, wet the surface OF
the skin with alcohol, allowing it to
run down as the plaster is pulled a
little. If any OF the gummy substance
remains, bit of rag wet with alcohol
will cleanse the surface Immediately.
This, also, has another advantage in
that the stimulating effect of the a!co-
hol prevents any possible cold that
might be taken on account of the re-
moval of the warm plaster. This is
but a trife, but it makes easy some
thing that has always been bugbear,
especially to children, and it is we'll
worth trying.

Wars Caused by TriHes.

Many times it has happened that
great and costly war has been brought
about by an incident trivial and even
ridiculous, says Answers. Thus the
war of the Spanish succession is said
to have been caused through q glass
of water. A lady, Mrs. Masham was
carrying a glass of water, when she
was obstructed by the Marquis de
Torey. A slight scufile ensued and
the water was spilled. The Marquis
thereat took offense and bad feeling
ensued between the English and
French courts, with the ultimate re.
suit that war was declared. The cam
paign cost France many severe bat
ties, vix. Blenheim, 1704; Families,
1907; Oudenarde, 1908, and Malpla-
quet, 1909.
Quite ms absurd in its origin was the
war that took place during the COM
monwealth at Modena. A soldier
stole bucket from public well be-
longing to the State of Bologna. AL
though the value of the article did
not exceed quarter, its annexation
was the signal for fierce and pro-
longed war. Henry, the King of Sar-
dinia, assisted the Modenese to retain
the bucket, and in one of the subse-
quent battles he was made prisoner.
The bucket is still exhibited in the
tower of the cathedral of Modena.
A third instance of war resulting
from trifiing cause was that between
Louis VII of France and Henry III of
England. The Archbishop of Rouen
decreed that no one should wear long
hair upon his head or chin. Louis
submitted to the decree, whereupon
his wife Eleanor, rallied him upon his
appearance. A quarrel ensued, which
resulted in the dissolution of the mar
riage and Eeanor's marriage with
Henry. By this iAarriage the broad
domains in Normandy, formerly be-
longing TO Louis passed into the poss'
ession of Henry. Louis, hotly in
censed, made an attack on Normandy,
and henceforte, for nearly 800 years
arose those bloody and devastating
wars, which cost France upward Of
| 3, 900, 900 of lives.

How To Warm Cold Hands.

The passenger on the front platform
OF the crowded car was blowing ener-
getically Oh his gloved hands.
"They pear to be cold" said the
driver, alphabetically. "Well, I'll
tell you how to warm 'em. Don't keep
your gloves on when your hands get
cold. Take 'em off right away. Then
double up your fist as tight as you can
Just as if somebody was tryin' open
your fingers an you wouldn't let 'em
an then ram your hands down in
your coat pockets. It'll s'prise you,
sir, how quick they'll get warm"
The passenger Immediately put the
suggestion into effect. In minute or
two he looked pleasantly at the dri-
yer.
'It is wonderful" he remarked.
"My hands are as comfortable now us
l could wish. "-Washington Star.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES,

All barns should be kept as clean rs
possible.
In fair weather cattle should be in
the open air as much as possible.
A lump of stone lime kept IN the
poultry house will absorb the moist
ure and do much towards avoiding
dampness.
When the COW is dry and is expect.
ed to come IN fresh, do not feed her
too heavily. 1t is of no advantage to
have her in very fat condition, as
milk fever may result.
In consequence of the irritating and
infectious character of the dust of
stables in which tuberculous animals
have been kept, sweeping should al
ways be done while the cattle are in
the yard.
In consequence OF the danger to
cattle from consumptives expectorat-
ing in and around barns, no consumpt-
i've person should be allowed to have
charge OF or come in contact with
dairy cattle.
BY clearing out the underbrush and
rufuse, not only from the fences and
other places, but where piles have ac-
cumul ated in the forest, there will be
less liability of forest fires. Green
trees do not take fire quickly. 1t Is
dry material that causes the damage.
Pure air and abundant sunlight are
essential to the preservation of health
in animals. Windows hinged at the
bottom and dropped slightly inward
at tae top may be uti lied for light
and ventilation. In this way the air
is directed upward, thereby prevent.
ing n current of cold air on the cattle.
Sow the pansy seed now, in small
box, SO as to have large and thrifty
plants for transplanting when the
spring opens. They are very hardy,
and when once they get started, will
be able to grow right on. When
they begin to bloom keep the flowers
plncked off so us not to allow the plan G
| to seed.

FOR FARM AND GARDEN.

FOR ''rHAT TIRED FEELING" IN POULTRY.
A tonic for general weakness and
moping about may be given with good
results by dissolving teaspoonful of
tincture of iron in gill of water,
adding q teaspoonful of quinine, and
the same each of spirits of camphor,
brandy and tincture of red pepper ;
shake we'll and give four or five drops
on a small piece of bread to a chick
and half teaspoonful to an adult.
For diarrhoea add drop of laudanum
to the dose for chick and three
drops to that for adults. This season
after or during molting most fowls
droop and look sick; a tonic of this
kind is essential in bracing up their
rundown condition which comes
largely from the painful molt they
have just passed through. New York

DISEASE IN SHEEP.

There is disease common among
sheep, and especially among lambs,
known rs trembles, really inhamma =
ton of the spinal cord, by which the
animal is paralyzed. Its head is drawn
back and its neck is stiff, the whole
body trembles, and soon the animal
falls, lies on its side, the muscles
trembling and quivering until it dies
of starvation. 1t is the reflex action
of the disordered digestive functions
on the nervous system, of which the
spinal cord is the center, and the con-
nection between it and the brain. 1t
is due to the indigestion of the food,
either by reason of too rich or too
poor feeding; it often appears on n
flock fed on limestone land, and on
the luxuriant herbage of this kind of
soil. There is scarcely remedy for
this disorder, unless at the first occur
renee of it, when dose of two ounces
of castor oil to free the bowels be
given. On the occurrenc ce of the
spasmodic action of the nerves, n tea.
spoonful of aromatic ammonia soon
after, repeated every hour, has been
found to afford relief. The amhonia
is given in some warm oatmeal Cruel,
and this food may be usefully con
tinued for some days. New York
Times.
