An Absurd Proposition.

Gov. Altgeld of Illinois may be a
funny man in some respects, but on
the silver proposition his goose hangs
very high, and his head is located. He
says: GAS I am not q candidate for
governor or any other position, / do
not want the endorsement ofanybody.
Even we've I a candidate and anxious
to be elected, would not for humid
red governorships stide my convic-
tions on 30 momentous question as
that which lies at the bottom of our
miseries. The idea that prosperity
can be restored to the world with only
half the money that was formerly
needed to the worlds business, is too
absurd to be seriously discussed, es-
pecially when it is remembered that
taxes, interest, the great debts and
othet fixed charges have not been di-
minished. Consequently a continual
ton oflow prices means the absolute
destruction OF the purchasing power
OF the entire debtor class. This first
reduces the volume of business, then
forces the shutting down of factories,
and by destroying the market for la
Dor, soon destroys the purchasing
power of the entire laboring class, and
fills the laboring class, and fills the
land with distress"

Household Hints.

Here are some household hints con-
tanned in recent lecture of Miss Par
loa's. In caring for the kitchen range
her directions are to brush the range
after building the fire, then wipe II Oft
Win a 9th wrung out in ammonia water.
The top should be blaekened, but the
other parts brushed only Fine emery
paper Is good TO brighten nickel Tim
mings.
The milky look that comes on chimneys
en- be removed with whiting and
ammonia.
Parafine or sweet oil is excellent to
femoyc rust from an iron sink
Nothing can compare with rotten
stone and oil as a polish tor brdsSes etc
Brushes that have been used for paint
or Yarnish can be kept In good condition
by leaving them to soak in tepid, weak
ammonia water.
Boiled milk will remove stains from
leather furniture or spots from polished
dining table.
In the kitchen there is much bending
to be done. DO YOU do it properly :
Never bend at your waist. Observation
shows that two-thirds Of people do. The
lips are made for the point OF action.
BY using them our chest is expanded,
curvature OF the spine repulsed, and an
attitude OF grace obtained. Bending at
the waist has the contrary effect. No
more awkward or droler position can
be magined-the stomach extended,
shoulders bumped and chest contracted.
Not only is grace lacking, but our breath
ing apparatus is robbed OF It's due. Try
the two bends Pfeseyere in the first TIL
the habit is established.

A Flock for the Family.

Leaving out the matter of profit and of
selling eggs, there is much pleasure in
keeping a small flock of fowls for family
use. A few hens can be kept at less cost,
than can large number,
owing to the fact that the scraps from
the table are valuable. No labor of
consequence is necessary, and when an
account for the year is kept, the small
hocks will be found to have given quite a
profit in the conversion of the waste
material into eggs. There is no way to
procure eggs as fresh and nice as those
procured by your own hens. If Trey are
a choice breed, the pleasure will be the
greater as well from pride in endeavoring
to excel as from the management The
Poultry Keeper.

the Two farms is seen at once by the color
Of the crops. although Stacks half of the
boundary fence has been down for years
In place of this fence, Slack has hauled
up few rocks ana bouders and placed
them along the line in Struggling fashion;
but the precaution was unnecessary. for
even the color of Spry's land is different,
owing to the heavy application of dress
ing made every year, and the g ass starts

chalk line could almost be drawn between

fertility of his farm very fast. His silo
has enabled him to keep more COWS. He
has bought considerable grain and has
sold very little of the farms richness,
most of the produce having been trans
formed into butter, cream, fruit, eggs,
and honey before being taken to market.

Fine composted manure is the only
kind that is fit for early vegetables. The

little nitrate OF soda in the drill is a great

Crabtree's Farmer: LET the young man
about town, out of job, try a year on the

off his stomach, the weakness out of his

him good appetite, an honest living and

In Swiss and German farmhouses
bread-baking is done only once every
three weeks, and such a thing as stale
bread is unknown. The bread is put
away in pecnliar manner, which tends to
preserve its freshness. Sprinkle flour
freely into an empty -four sack, and into
this pack the loaves, taking care to have
the top crusts of two loayes touching
When they have to lie bottom to bottom
sprinkle flour between them. Tie up the
sack and hang it up in dry, airy place,
where it can swing. The day before the
LOAF is wanted take it out, brush off the
flour, and stand it in the cellar over night.
Treated in this manner bread remains
good several weeks.

Economy is business-like, while par
simony is not. For instance, economy
does not require that we should deprive
our land OF needed fertililing material or
that we should half stane our stock
Parsimony in raw material is very poor
economy.
The modern farm is not so much a mine
as it is bank. The owner draws interest
on his deposits If he seeks more he less
ems the principal. His aim should be to
sell that which takes away the least fer
tility. Keep the deposits ahead Of the
drafts.
