From the Rockingham Register
A Memorable February.

February, 1895, will long be remem-
bered for the severity of the weather
during the month. So severe. so vari-
able, and so widespread were the freaks
of wind and snow, rain and sleet, that
the weather was the almost universal
topic of conversation and most inter-
esting subject of thought and consid
Grafton for practical people for weeks
on stretch. 1t affected railroad traf-
fic. farming operations, fruit and truck
ing prospects. and business in general.
The weather records during this re-
markable month have been compiled
by Observer Ryker, of the Weather
Bureau station at Lynchburg. 1t
shows that the mean temperature for
the whole month was 80 3 degrees, or
nearly three degrees below the freezing
point. The mean temperature for
February for the "a years since the
weather station was established there
has been forty degrees. That means
that the month of February just end
ed was, to speak by averages, more
than % per cent colder than the regu
latiou February
The lowest average temperature for
any preceding February in "a years
was 80 degrees in 1885, just ten years
ago. The highest average was - de
grees in 1890.

The following is the record for each
day of the past month kept by J.. j

Where the Aged and Infirm are Cared
fOr-MOther Aurelia Speaks
Of Her Charges.

O4 kfeF Nh0rSeSs
(FrO1} tAe Providence, X. L., ,Jour7,oLl
Somewhat removed from the city Of Prov.
idence, on the main high way to Pawtucket,
stands that magnificent Charitable institu-
ton known as the Home for the Aged of the
Little Sisters of the Poor. Here conf
pany of sweet faced and soft voiced Sisters
care for the old and the infrm who are
unable to care for themselves.
Mother Aurelia presides over this we'll
known institution, and with her associates
ministers 30 the wants Of over two hundred
old people, women and men. An important
feature of the Home is a well-appointed
pharmacy in charge of one of the sisters.
Their chief remedy is good old Pain Killer,
which most of the old folks used when they
were children and which now cures the pains
and aches incidental to their declining years.
AS is to be expected, the aged inmates of
the Home are in constant need of medical
attention, although, so carefully are they
tended, few are rarely sick enough to be in
the hospital wing at any one time. But all
of them are subject to the many disabilities
of old age, and so Pain-Killer has come
to be remedy of almost daily use.
Mother Aurelia says that Pain,Kilfer has
quite superseded the drugs and prescriptions
for use among the old people. When the
limbs twitch with rheumatism the fair
sister IN eharge OF the pharmacy gives them
a massage with pure Pain-Killer. When
the old men and old women suffer from
their many stomach troubles, little Pain
Killer with water and sugar offers a certain
and quick relief. When the venerable
heads are r;lcked with pain, Pain-Killer is
again put to service promptly. The old
people love it and rely upon it. They ties.
tify that it use externally is quickly effca-
ei01s, and internally, is unaecompanied by
any after ill effects which, at their age,
must never be risked.

The Trade Outlook Favorable.

In a letter in the New York Herald,
Mr.. George Follett of New York City
expresses the opinion that 1.-THE trade
outlook is favorable, and that as the
present conditions in the business
world, brought about largely by the
radical changes effected by the tariff
now in force, are simmered down the
situation will be still brighter"
In commenting on this opinion, the
Herald says editorially, that there
are numerous indications that this en-
couraging view is not unfounded. The
imports of last month increased rapid
ly, the customs duties collected aggre-
eating on the 25th ultimo 1915, 100 and
On the 18th 81, O39, 241. There could be
no better proof that the business of
the country is beginning to revive than
this increase of the import-trade.
From several quarters come well found
ed reports of decided increase also in
the expectations of American manu-
featured goods, for which the manu-
facturers ought to thank the trainers
of the new tariff. Had the original
Wilson bill or still lower tariff been
enacted year ago our export-trade in
manufactured products would prob
ably be booming now as it never before
did. But the conditions of production
and commerce created by the new tar
if are far the most suspicious and en-
couraging that the country has seen
since 1867

1t is a Mystery to Us.

: We are sincere in the belief that we
have as deep a regard for the Con-
federate cause as any living man and
that we are quite as sensitive as others
to any slight or affront to those who

But we utterly and entirely fail to
comprehend the objections that are
being raised by Southern people to the
establishment of national memorial
park at Appomattox.
In the name of common sense, is
there anything in Appomattox that we
of the South are ashamed of On the
contrary. is not the name itself the
synonym of Southern courage, OF
Southern manhood, of Southern sacri-
fee, of Southern devotion to priciple

should have arisen. The opposition
that has SO unexpectedly cropped out
can do the South no good Richmond

Protect the Birds,

We have frequently tried, says the
Shenandoah Herald, to impress upon
our readers the necessity of protecting
the birds. Below we give an article
from the pen of a distinguished orni
biologist, a man who has made the
habits of birds the study of almost a
lifetime. From it the dullest person
can see the inestimable valne of birds
to the raiser of fruits and the tiller OF
the soil, and in fact the whole human
Family. as all must live from the prod
ucts of mother earth. Without the
protection given by our gentle little
feathered friends it would soon become
impossible to raise either fruit, grain OF
vegetation of any kind; all would be
destroyed by the insects that woulo
cover the whole face of creation to the
utter destruction of all growing things.
That this is no mere flight of the imagi-
nation is readily seen by reading the
following and thus learning the pro
lection afforded by a single nest OF
birds:
WHAT A NEST OF BIRDS WILL EAT.
Think of a bird nest with five young
ones in it. Every young bird needs, on
the average, so cat-rpillars day; thai
makes $50 day. The young birds are
fed by their mother for about 80 days
disposing of about $500 caterpillars.-
Each one of these pests eats its owl
weight in leaves and blossoms every
day. If each of these caterpillars eat,
but one blossom a day this represent,
the enormous loss of 225, 900 blossoms
and suppose only ten blossoms in each
hundred would have ripened into
fruit we would still have %, 500 apples
or pears less but for the nest birds.
The farmer, the fruit-raiser, in fact
anyone who fails or refuses to protect
and defend the birds to the utmost
limit of his ability, should receive no
benefit from mother nature.
Representative Warner, of Windham
county, Conn, has introduced in the
Legislature of that State bill appro
priating $4,000 to purchase Pu,nam's
famous "Wolf Den," together with
tract of land adjoining, for the purpose
of converting the same into a public
park,
