Butter and Cream as Medicine,

One Of the favorite remedies or ply
sicians is cod liver oil, and why is one
OF the mysteries of the world of medi-
cine, when all there is about it is an oil
or fatty substance is wanted that is
easily digested and quite as easily as
simulated, fish oil being appropriated
with small outlay of digestive power.
Why cod liver oil, product of the de-
composition of fish refuse, should ever
have been CHANGED upon when butter
and cream are NATURES supply and at
once the most readily obtainable is un-
explainable. While any one can take
cream or butter the consuming of fish
oil requires the fortitude of a saint and
the heroism of martyr, and, as we
know, the oil does not agree with many
and IS hard of digestion in others. Now,
1t has been demonstrated that fresh, un.
salted butter is rather more digestible
than oil and is pleasant to take, on
thinly cut slices of bread, and as high
as four ounces day of this butter can
be eaten with impunity by even deli.
cate persons, and cream can be taken TO
the full desire of the patient. Where

HOlIING PIGEONS.
OINTS FROM FANClERS ON THESE
INTELLIGENT BIRDS.

Careful Observers Declare That the Birds
Fly by Sight-The Four Points In HON.
ing Pigeons Which Fanciers Consider OF
Prime Importance.
What the peculiar gift is which en-.
ables the pigeon TO return to its home
from great distances is matter upon
which authorities disagree. The most
general opinion among those who know
anything OF the subject is that the birds
fly by sight alone. This theory would
seem TO be borne out by the fact that
the best and most highly bred of racing
birds have. frequently been lost in the
London fogs. The fact that instinct is
unerring and that the homing pipeon
not only frequently errs, but exhibits az
times great INDIGESTION as to the correct
course for him to pursue, seems to pre-.
clude the idea that he is governed solely
by instinct. The theory which is most
generally accepted is that the bird is
gl1ted with remarkable eyesight and
also with memory for landmarks which
Is superior to similar faculty in any
other animal That the bird possesses n
