for many ills. a little of it dissolved

In the early days of the country the

The admixture of little Berkshire

ILL-FED cows.

When COWS eat the litter from horse
stables or drink the drainage from
manure heaps it is an indication of in
digestion resulting in what is com
monty called a depraved appetite. The
same cause impels COWS to eat rotten
wood or any other coarse stuff. The
treatment for this disease, which it
really is, is to give some raw linseed
oil, pint is sufficient for one dose,
but it may be repeated if necessary in
three days. Then feed some bran mash
or cut food wetted with hot water,
with the mash added, or any similar
easily digested food, adding to each

BUSINESS woMEN's RESTAURANT.

Danish women are the latest to start
business women's restaurant and
reading room. In the heart of the
business centre of Copenhagen such a
place is to be established, which will
afford women engaged in Office aud
shop work comfortable quarters for
taking their luncheons. Good, nourish-
ing food is to be provided at reason
able prices, and a reading room is
planned. 1t has been suggested that
field for such restaurant in New
York was down town. among the
many big buildings, where scores of
women are employed. Many women
now carry their luncheons, aud eat
them in the law or business office
where they are serving as typewriter
or stenoSrapher, because they do not
care to so to the restaurants whose
chief patronage is among men, and
which Mt the noon hour are apt to be
overcrowded.
If one of the womer's exchanges
would start luncheon room of that
sort Mt or little below the City Hall.
it is believed by many that it would
be of great mutual benefit, alike to its
patrons and it's management. New

In Europe cheese forms n very i'm

on many farms it's manufacture is

CAREER OF WOMAN LETTER CARRIER.
Mrs. Ann Hawkins, whose death Mt
Cutskye, near Castleford, is announced.
had remarkable career. She was
native of Pontefract, and from the
time of the Queens coronation. in
1897, till 1869, she fulfilled the Office
OF town letter carrier, and discharged
the duties single handed. She was
never known to be absent from her
duties from sickness during the whole
of her period of service. Through
the interest of the late Lord Hough-
ton and Mr.. Childers, who then re-
presented Pontefract in Parliament.
Mrs. Hawkins's services to the country
were brought before the notice of the
then Postmaster General, and for
about twenty-seven years past she hus
been in receipt of a well-eaRned pen
sion. Prior to the Introduction of
railways into the district, letters were
delivered in POntefract by means of
postboys, meeting the mail coaches
proceeding north and south ut Ferry
bridge, and some bags Of letters and
newspapers, which contained as MANY
rs fifty or sixty missives daily, were
considered a good average in Mrs.
Hawkins's time. Mrs. Hawkins wore
singular waterproof garb in wet
weather, and carried the letters in a
small covered basket protected by
waterproof covering. She had de-
livered many writs for Parliamentary
elections in her capacity as postwo-
man.-Yorkshire (Englandl Post.

carefully of. Some good butter-mazers
dash water cooled to sixty-two degrees
upon the grains of butter and then
turn the barrel churn over dozen

usually do not provide for it, it is
well to have u strainer of somewhat
