Gardening is very late this year and the
firat breaking of dirt occurred during the
closing days of last week. English peas,
spinach, onion, lettuce and radish were
looked after. This week Irish potatoes
will be put into the ground and sweet po.
tatoes will be bedded for slips. Let every
gardener be sure of a supply of spring tur-
uips and spinach for tender and juicy
salads. Look carefully into the columns
of the INTELL1aRNoEE for places to find

have to get new County, If we hsye to

idly taking her place as queen of the even
ing sky, and low in the west just after
sunset her resplendent beams may be seen
struggling with the dense atmosphere near
the horizion. Its altitude and brilliancy
| will continue to increase every evening
for several months, during which time It
| will be the most prominent object in the
western heavens. The telescope shows
Venus now to have crescent shape, in
deed, this planet undergoes al! the phases

One OF our citizens who has been afflict-
ed with q severe cold for several weeks
says he effected his recovery in the follow.
ing simple manner At the suggestion OF
a friend he boiled little boneset and
hoarhound together and drank freely Of
the tea before going to bed. The next day
he took FIVE pills, put one kind Of plaster
on his breast, another under bis arms and
still another OIL bis back. Under the ad-
vice Of an experienced old lady he took all
of these off with knife In the afternoon
and slapped on mustard plaster instead.
His mother put some onion drafts on his
feet and gave him lump Of tar to swal
low. Then he put some hot bricks to his
feet and went TO bed. Next morning an-
other old lady came in with bottle Of
goose oil and gave him dose of 1t on a
Quill, and an aunt arrived from the coun-
try with bundle of sweet fern which she
made into tea and gave him every half
hour until noon, when he took big dose
Of salts. After dinner bis wife, who had
seen an old lady of great experience In
doctoring, gave him two pills of her make
about the size Of walnut, and two table.
spoonfuls Of home made balsam to keep
them down. Then he took a half pint hot
an and steamed his legs with an alcohol
bath. At this crisis two of the neighbora
came in and saw at once that his blood
was out Of order, and gave him half gal.
Ion OF peppermint tea and a big dose OF
castor oil Before going to bed he took
eight of new kind of pills, wrapped about
his neck flannel soaked in hot vinegar
and salt and had feathers burned on a
shovel In. bis room. He is now thorough
ly cured and full of gratitude We advise
our readers to cut this out and keep It
where it can be readily found when dan
