Do fowls read the weather? An
old Pennsylvania farmer says they
do. Have any Of our readers no
ticed such facts as he states in the fol-
lowing:
"I always know when there Is to be a
wlndstorm by watching the turkeys
and chickens go to roost each night. In
calm weather the fowls always roost
on their poles with their heads alter
mating each way; that is, one faces east,
the next west, and 80 on. But when
there is going to be high wind they
always roost with their heads towards
the direction from which 1t is coming.
There are reasons for these different
ways Of roosting take it. When there
is no wind to guard against they can
see other danger more readily IL they
are headed in both directions, but when
wind is to arise they face 1t because
they can hold their positions better.
But the part I can't understand" he
concluded, "is how the critters know
that the wind is going to rise when we
mortals lack all intimation Of lt."-Ex.

There Is very strong opinion grow
Ing up among medical men that sugar
has remedial value that has hitherto
been wholly unappreciated. AS a tonic
and invigorator it's value has been, in
experimental cases, extremely satisfac-
tory. A case in point Is related where
q person from force Of circumstances
had tasted for nearly twelve hours. This
patient was subject to the most violent
headaches from hunger or lack Of food.
After certain period peculiar pres
sure or congested feeling was noticed in
the head, invariably followed by acute
pain, sometimes by severe nausea,
These enforced fasts, occurring at fire.
quent intervals, became the subject OF
some concern. One day the individual
in question tried the experiment Of talk
ing sugar and water, this being the
only available article Of food at the
time. Several blocks Of cut sugar were
dipped into water and eaten very slow
ly, with frequent clippings, so that the
sugar was almost entirely dissolved.
When the operation began, the pressure
in the head was already very marked,
and the headache was coming on.
Strange to say, the unpleasant symp-
toms almost Immediately left, there was
no return of them, and the stomach was
in nowlse disturbed. Repeated trials
had the same effect, and it seemed to
be foregone conclusion that with this
patient at least the sugar application
was a success. Further experiments
are being made with a view to demon
strate the value Of cut sugar as a lun-
cheon when other food Is not to be had.
Il would be a simple and easy matter
10 carry half a dozen pieces Of sugar

no other accompaniment than a glass

probably postponing those frightful at
tacks Of cerebral congestion and agony
that many persons are subject to.
