GROW STRAWBERRIES.

Every man, woman and child, having
rod of ground, should grow straw
berries. They may be produced on al
most any soil, and a child may grow
them. There is no fruit so delicious.
none more productive, none more
healthful, none 50 easily grown, and
none 50 cheaply grown and easily pro-
tected from the hot winds and drouth
of summer or the blizzard winters of
the northwest. 1t is the rich mans
berry: it is the poor mans berry; it is
eYerybody'5 berry, and should be as
universally grown as wheat, corn or
potatoes.
The same common sense that grows
q good pig, a good COW, or q good crop
Of grain. win Just as surely grow d
good crop of straw berries. In fact, the
process is about the same. You cannot
grow good pork from a weak, sickly
pig, and you cannot grow good berries
from a weak Sickly plant Always get
the best, whether pig or plant. The
soil is a storehouse for plant food. Ii

fertility. All may do business at this
bank, but the inner doors are many

! Berry plants are huge feeders and
hard drinkers; they require the atmos-

SIMPLE REMEDY ron EARACHE.

Il am afraid l, have greatly interfered
with my own practice said a celebrated
aurist, 'by giving the following advice to
many of my friends: At the first symp-
toms of earache let the patient lie on
the bed with the painful ear uppermost.
the neck; then with a teaspoon All the
ear with warm water. Continue doing
this for fifteen or twenty minutes; the
water will fill the ear orifce and flow
over the towel. Afterwards turn over
the head. let the water out, and plug the
ear with warm glycerine and cotton,
This may be done every hour until relief
is obtained. 1t is an almost inV2riable
cure, and has saved many cases of acute
Inflammation. The water should be quite
warm, but rot too hot" A better rene
dy is to drop a warm drop of molasses
in the ear. 1t viii stop the pain imme-
diately.

Washington, Feb. 13,-An old law has
been discovered upon the statute books
by free silver men which they declare
gives them ground to hope that they can
bring about the coinage of silver in an
indirect way through the use of Mexican
dollars. The law was passed in 1851 and
is section 1857 of the Revised Statutes. 1t
is az follows:
1.-The pieces commonly known as the
quarter, eighth and sixteenth of the
Spanish dollar and of the Mexican dollar,
shall be receivable at the treasury of. the
! United States and its several offices and
Its several postoffices and land Offices
at the rates of valuation following: The
fourth of a dollar, or piece OF two reals
at twenty cents; the eighth of dollar,
or piece of one real, at ten cents; and the
sixteenth Of a dollar. OF half real. at
! i've cents"
The section following provides that the
coins shall not be reissued from the
treasury, but shall be recoined into
I United States coins. The law has never
/ been repealed and silver men in Congress
assert that it is possible to send the
metal to Mexico for coinage, reimp0rt it
into the United States and present it at
the treasury. They assert that the valid
ity of the law is beyond question, and
points to the statute re5urrected by Sec
Rotary Carlisle which practically cOmpels
the treasury to redeem national bank
notes in gold as evidence that there are
more intricacies in the monetary system
than have been realized The first step,
the silver men say, is to secure con-
struction of the law by some competent
authority. They fear that Attorney-Gen-
eral Olney viii rule against them, and
are trying to devise a plan to secure an
opinion from the Judiciary committee OF
