Worry Causes Indigo stion.
Worry is baneful curse and source OF
untold evils. 1t seams the face with lines
and burrows and has a most depressing
effect upon that representative organ, the
stomach, which at such times becomes
most unwilling and laggard servant. In
deed it is safe to say that unless eDcour-
aged by cheerful temper and bright, or
at least hopeful thoughts, the stomach
will play truant or sulk and do no work
which it can shirk. The physiological
EXPLANATION of this is the close alliance of
worse than the telegraph for carrying bad
news; the worry and anxiety which de-
press the brain produce simultaneously
a semi paralysis of the nerves Of the
stomach, gastric juices will not flow, and
presto there is indigestion. One sign of
mental health is serenity of temper and
self control that enables us to bear with
equanimity and unruffled tho petty trials
and jars of life, especially those arising
from contact with scolding, irascible,
folks. 1t is we'll to remember at such
times that these unfortunates are their
own worst enemies and cultivation of
the art Of not hearing will help US very
much. 1t is very useful art all through
life and well worth some trouble to ac-

Domestic Receipts.
The following rec eipts are selected from
the New England Farmer, and none of
them are too expensive for common use.
Boiled Apple Pudding One pint Of
flour unsifted, three pints Of pared and
chopped apples, one cup of sugar, four
tablespoonful of butter, two teaspoons
Of baking powder, half a teaspoon Of salt
and one cup Of water. Mix we'll in a
sieve. then rub through in the flour, salt,
baking powder and two tablespoons of
sugar. Rub a tablespoon of butter into
this mixture, then stir in water. When
a smooth dough has been formed turn
out on moulding board. Roll to thick
ness OF about quarter ofian inch. Spread
two tablespoons of butter on the 5ough
and sprinkle one-third of a cup of sugar
over. Now spread the chopped apples
upon dough and CRATE nutmeg over it.
Roll up the same as jelly cake and out
into pieces about an inch and q half long.
place the pieces of the roll on end In a
buttered pan and bake for half an hour
in moderate oven. Serve with sauce.

midsummer their eyes were gladdened by
a sight as welcome as it was inexplicable.
Tho acres and acres of land that had
been swept by the fire the previous spring
were covered with low, thrifty pushes
loaded with great blueberries A ready
market was found for them, and from
that time forward the prosperity OF The
family was assured and the coming OF the
blueberries was regarded as direct GIT
from Him who cares for the widow and
the fatherless. Whatever origin IL may
have had, the blueberry industry has
grown to gigantic proportions ana the
land once regarded as utterly worthless
has proved to be fruitful source OF IN
come to the owners.
During the season persons come from
far and near to pick the fruit for Market,
and then the .'barrens' resemble vast
camping grounds, for those VINO come
from distance pitch tents near the
scene of their labors and there take up
temporary residence.
One of the prettiest sights imaginable
is presented when new tract is opened
up to the pickers. The berries grow at
the top of the bushes in ropes four or
five inches long, and so numerousiy That
little green is visible. AS far as the eye
can reach the ground is apparently COW
cred with an irregular
CARPET OF SOFTEsT BLUE.
An idea OF the great quantities in which
they grow can be best conveyed when it
is said that an expert picker can place
seven bushels to his credit daily. To
facilitate the work rakes are provided
with which to gather them. These i'm
Elements have four or five long teeth,
with receptacle underneath to catch the
berries as they are detached from the
parent stem.
Pickers are provided with bushel boxes,
which they fill at the rate of n cent per
quart for their labor. Toward evening
the boxes are gathered up, credited, and
the berries are put through the winnow-
ing machines before they leave the field
for the factory
Women and children comprise ma
jority of the pickers, and by them the
season is eagerly hailed. Besides provid-
ing a change and outing that would
otherwise be beyond their reach, it places
them in possession of a sum of money to
be expended for some long-denied luxury
or much-wished-f for necessity, as the
case may be.

them by u spirit of curiosity and i'm
pulsive quest of novelty. Cupid didn't
inquire how they got there but finding
two such attractive persons not far apart,
soon drew them together with his speak
ing glances, and at the close of the season
there was
A QUIET WEDDING
in pretty country church, and the viii
lage girl went back with her lover to his
city home, where she is much admired
and her beautiful voice is often heard.
Usually some enterprising young
woman runs a dining tent for the ac-
commodation of those who do not wish
to bring supplies. Plain but wholesome
amount, and the scheme is mutually
profitable.
Every day during the season large guam
titles of the fresh berries are shipped to
Bar Harbor, Newport and other near by
resorts, as we'll as to Boston, Bangor,
Portland and numerous other cities. But
the great supply is carried to the factories
where it is canned, and then shipped to
all parts of the United States. Of these
factories, two are located in the town of
Harrington, two at Columbia Falls and
two in Cherryfeld. Each receives on an
average anywhere from. $50 to $50 bushels
of blueberries each day of the season, and
the work of canning them furnishes en-
ployment temporarily to thirty or forty
women and young girls as we'll as to q
score or two of men.
Although rudely constructed the in
teriors of these factories are scrupulously
neat. The machinery employed is of the
lightest and simplest description, and the
daily allowance of berries is received
without confusion and disposed of with
dispatch and neatness.
Here they are again put through win
moving machine, in order to remove any
remaining leaves or green berries. The
next step is to pour them into huge re-
ceptacle preparatory to filling the cans.
This part of the work is done by fan in
genious machineywhich woman operates
by means of levers.
One lever causes a circular rim upon
which dozen or more cans are placed,
to revolve in such manner as to bring
one of them with each movement into
position under the receptacle containing
the berries, while second lever liberates
just enough of the fruit to fill quart
can.
AS the full cans pass in rotation a Sec
ond woman pours into each certain
quantity of syrup, while third removes
the sweetened canfuls.
A half grown girl is kept busy wiping
from the cans any scattered berries and
then covering each opening with circu-
lar piece of tin. Several men with solder
ing irons rapidly seal on the covers, and
the cans are then ready for the steam
cooker. AS fast as the berries are suffi-
cieutly heated they are transferred to

berries are then ready for pies, puddings
or sauces.
Although the berries are shipped to al
most every State in the Union, the larg-
est markets are New York and Chicago.
