LIVE STOCK POINTS.

In these days when hard twisted
textile fabrics are fashionable, the
few men who have had focks of wool
goats have made much profit. Last
year man in the southwest had a
flock of 80 goats. From their f1eeces
and from the increase in his herd he
has made profit of more than $500.
They were mohair goats, and some of
them sheared as high as four pounds
of fleece. The best part of the bust
ness was that the animals foraged for
themselves, and he bought no feed
at all for them.
We have often wondered why
American farmers do not go into the
breeding of mohair goats oftener
than they do. The hair is very valu
able, and the flesh of the young kid
famous as a delicacy from remote
Bible times. These goats are less
trouble and expense to keep than
sheep.
When separator milk is fed to
calves, it should always be warmed
to about 80 degrees.
In return for the large number Of
hackneys that are coming over here
our breeders must see that about 100
times as many of our high class ex-
press and light hauling horses are
shipped to Great Britain.
The National Saddle Horse associa
ton and horse breeders generally
have it in their power to give the
saddle horse boom such as it never
had before. The Kentucky or south
ern saddle horse is the one that in the
long run will pay the best to cuiti-
vate. No other compares with it.
Careful breeding and training, great
advertising Of saddle horse shows and
especially riding picnics and excur-
sions will help. The celebration of
equestrian day in Chicago is the
right kind of move. There might
be an equestrian day in every large
city of the Union some time in the
pleasant weather Of this year.

A very "fresh" young man made
tie acquaintance of a young lady
from Boston, to whom he proceeded
to pour out a long story of some adj
venture in which he had played the
hero. His listener was much surpris-
ed. "Did you really do that?" she
asked. 81 done it," answered the
proud young man; and he began
forthwith upon another long nara
tive, more startling even than the
first. The Boston woman again ex-
pressed her polite surprise. eyes,"
said the fellow, with an imitation of
the chest, ''that's what / DONE" A
third story followed with another 81
done it, and then the Boston girl re-
marked, ''Do you know you remind
me so strongly of Banquo's ghost?"
sYou mean the ghost in Shakspere's
play" eyes" ''And why?" ''Why,
don't you remember that Macbeth
said to him, Thou canst not say | did
it'?'' The young man could not i'm
agine why everybody laughed.

The Care of Children,s Teeth.

The care of the teeth cannot be begun
too early. If child loses those of the
first set prematurely, the jaw contracts,
there being nothing to prevent it from
SO doing. The second teeth have not
space 70 stand properly and are crowded.
Particles OF food lodging between the
teeth cause them to decay early. 1t is a
wise precaution to teach child TO pass
a thread of silk or dental floss between
the teeth after eating, as well as to
brush them regularly Salt and water
is good antiseptic, and answers for a
dentifrice as well as many more elabo-
rate and more expensive preparations. -

SOME FEARFUL MOMENT]S.

During the late war between China
and Japan we heard often of wonder
full acts of bravery performed by the
Japanese, but tales of Chinese brav-
cry were few and far between. The
following story, however. which ap-
pears to be told by an eyewitness, is
enough to show that the Chinese had
at least one officer who was no cow
ard.
The deposed viceroy, Ii Hung
Chang, and the committee appointed
by the government to investigate the
reasons of defeat at the battle of Port
Arthur met in the city of Peking.
Among the charges was one of poor
gunnery brought against Captain LIE
Chen Fue, who had commanded the
Yen Use Chang, one of the largest
battleships that escaped from the ac-
ton without great damage.
After Ii Hung Chang had read the
charges in full the accused captain
rose and requested that dozen shells
be brought from his vessel. This was
done, ana the SnollS were SET III a row
before the committee.
LIE Chen Fue then stepped forward,
and drawing his sword said, "Can you
wonder that we were defeated when
our shells were like these?o
AS he spoke and before any one
could stop him he raised his sword
and brought it down on the shell in
front of him. The shell was split in
two, and sawdust and red brick dust
flew all about.
Then in rapid succession he struck
shell after shell. Nobody moved, we
were so surprised and frightened. I
remember thinking that if the last
one proved good one there would
be none of us left to tell the tale; but,
no, that was like all the others
sham.
AS he finished LIE Chen Fue laid his
sword at the feet of Ii Hung Chang,
and as soon as that statesman could
speak he dismissed the charges.

Corporal punishment in schools has
passed under judicial review at Cham
bersburg. A boy had kicked little
girl on the play grounds at recess.
When school was dismissed the boy
was called forward for punishment,
but refused to go and when force was
used he drew knife upon the teach
er. The latter conquered, however,
and gave the lad thrashing which
drew blood. The father of the boy
had the teacher arrested for assault
and battery. The presiding judge
said that the boys act was one of in
subordination, and it had to be de-
cided then and there who was the
head of the school. In the opinion of
the judge the whipping was not too
severe. The jury agreed with him,
and the cost of the prosecution was
placed on the boys father.

TO CURE HEADACHES.

"a hot bath, a stroll in the fresh air,
shampooing the head in weak soda
water, or timely nap in cool, quiet
room will sometimes stop nervous
headache" writes DR.. B. T. Herrick
in Augustus Ladies' Home Journal.
"When overfatigued from shopping
or sightseeing a sponge dipped in
very hot water and pressed repeated
ly over the back of the neck between
the ears will be found exceedingly re-
freshing, especially if the face and
temples are afterward subjected to
the same treatment. Neuralgia is
caused not only by cold air but by
acidity of the stomach. starved
nerves, imperfect teeth, or by indo-
lence combined with too generous
diet. Heat is the best and quickest
cure for this distressing pain. A hot
fiatiron, passed rapidly and deftly
over several folds of flannel laid on
the affected spot, will often give re-
lief in less than ten minutes, without
the aid of medicine. Hot fomenta
tions are of equal value; though when
the skin is very tender it is more ad-
visable to use dry heat, nothing be-
ing better for the purpose than bags
of heated salt, flour or sand, which
retain warmth for long time. Cold
water, applied by the finger tips to
the nerves in front of the ear, has
been known to dispel neuralgia pains
like magic. When caused by acidity
a dose of charcoal or soda will usual
ly act as corrective. Sick headache
is accompanied by bilious symptoms,
and attacks usually come on when
the person is overtired or below par
physically. This is a disease of the
first half of life, and often stops of it's
own accord after middle age. A care
full diet is imperative in every case,
sweetmeats and pastry being espe-
cially pernicious.
eating heartily when very tired,
late dinners, eating irregularly, in
sufficient mastication or too much
animal food, especially in the spring
or during the hot weather, are fire.

The Potato Bulletin issued by the
Minnesota Agricultural Station gives
the results of experiments showing
amount of albumen lost in potatoes
cooked in different ways. Peeled po-
tatoes started in cold water and
brought to boil lost 80 per cent of
albumen, and only 10 per cent when
started in boiling water. Unpeeled
potatoes lost so per cent when start
ed in cold water, and only 2 per cent
when started in hot water. This is
worth remembering, since it goes
long way to explain why potatoes
boiled with their jackets on' taste
so much better than when peeled.
From this it appears that not only is
the labor of peeling potatoes thrown
away, but the biggest part of the po-
tato as we'll. One reason why some
housekeepers peel their potatoes is
that they want to get rid of germs,
etc., adhering to the skin, but that is
needless anxiety. The germs are too
thoroughly cooked in the operation
to hurt anybody.

All my fair correspondents seem to
dread in marriage the demand for
obedience. Gentle readers, you need
not be III the least alarmed, or, rather,
you may recognize at once, for your
comfort, that there are many things
IN which a husband must have his
own way, and as many in which you
must have yours.-Consider, if you
please, that the man is out and at
work all day long; in the evening he
wants calm, well regulated home or
little society. Remember, also, that
the most ideal of all men will still re-
tain the masculine love of a dinner
daintily served and we'll prepared
never yet knew a man worth his salt
who was Indifferent to his dinner
and remember that the most ideal
husband in the world will still retain
masculine desire that his wife shall
be always well dressed and looking
her best and brightest. If he is sue
cessful, it is his wife who receives the
harvest of his labors. Remember
what he does for you-it is his ODE
dience to you that makes him work
so hard, and then, 1 think, you will
not grudge that little study of few
things, mostly trifes, which he asks
OF you.-WdIter Besdnt.

A recent author shows that a or,

A recent author shows that a prev
alent notion that the Japan ivy and
similar plants which cling to the wall
by rootlets make the walls damp, is
the reverse of the fact. Tons of wa
ter are evaporated daily from these
leaves in the growing season-an
amount which it is almost impossible
they could draw from the earth
through stems which at the ground
are seldom thicker than ones finger.
The rootlets suck water from walls to
help supply this waste; besides this
they cool walls by shade in summer.
The action of the famous English ivy
on ruins is referred to as practical
proof of the drying character of these
rootlets; the mortar is SO hard and
dry that it is difficult to demolish
these walls. If these branches are
allowed to get into cutters or other
water conduits, SO as to choke the
flow in heavy rains, it is said the walls
NAV be rendered damp; but not by
the mere clinging to the walls of the
plants themselves.

We have yet to learn that the
kitchen is the most important end of
the household. If that goes wrong
the whole establishment is wrong. 1t
decides the health of the household,
and health settles almost everything.
Heavy bread, too great frequency of
plum pudding, mingling of lemonades
and custards, unmasticable beef,
have decided the fate of sermons,
legislative bills and the destiny of
empires. The kitchen knife has often
cut the brightest prospects. The
kitchen gridiron has often consumed
a commercial enterprise. The kitchen
kettle has kept many good man in
hot water. 1t will never be known
how much the history of the world
was affected by good or bad cookery.

Most medical men consider that
cold bath every morning is apt to do
more harm than good to any but per-
sons of very vigorous constitution.
The sensible thing to do is to see that
the temperature of the water in cold
weather is not lower than that of the
air. A daily bath is most healthful,
but it should not be SO cold as to give
a shock to the system.

Tho Child,s knowledge of Death.

Among other things, Dr.. Stanley
Halls child study at Worcester takes
into consideration the question how ear
~ in life child gets an impression con-
corning death and its meaning. This is
very interesting question. The writer
has always himself been a student of
child life, and he is of opinion that,
while children very quickly and easily
acquire through their own observation
a general notion what death is, they
connect human beings with it only when
the death of people has been talked of
III their hearing. A chance word drop
ped now and then is enough TO implant
in the intelligence of very young child
the knowledge that death may end the
life Of people they know. The sadness
of death they seem instinctively to real
ize. r, a boy years and months
old, not precocious. has never personal
II known any bereavement, but he has
heard death mentioned. The other day
his parents were visited by q gentleman
and his wife, who have 10 children.
During the visit R asked his father
if Mr.. and Mrs - chad any little
boy"
'SNo, answered his father.
'Have yey got any little girl?''
"No.
The little boy dropped his voice to a
low tone and asked, with tone of gen
uine solemnity:
care yey dead?'
The low voice of the child seemed to
express all the sorrow and pathos of the
idea of death. Yet it is quite certain
that no one had ever in any set terms
communicated this idea to him. Never
theless, he has seen dead birds, dead
flowers, dead trees. It is impossible to
shut out from the mind of any observ-
ant child who lives in the country a
knowledge of the primal facts of life
and death. Boston Transcript
