LIE ON THE RIGHT SIDE.-When
was quite young man an old and in
telligent gentleman said to me: Wher
you 20 to bed at night always lie or
the right side; and this was his reason
The stomach in the human body
lies in the left side of the chest anG
opens to the right into the smaller
bowels. The food that has been taken
into the stomach, after it has gone
through the process of digestion, pass
es into the intestines. If the individu
al is on the right side, the food moves
downwards as it leaves the stomach
but upwards if on the left side. The
downward movement is supposed tc
be more easy and natural and hence
beneficial to the individual.
The digestion of the food is com
pleted in about three hours. The first
nap usually lasts this long, and then
the person can lie in any position most
desirable. Whether there is anything
in this theory or not I cannot say, but
one thing I do know. I have followed
up this rule for nearly fifty years and
have generally been healthy active
man, and this little habit may have
contributed largely to my comfort.
But better plan to promote health
and activity is to abstain entirely from
the use of liquor and tobacco, and any
young man habitually following these
three rules will not regret their observ'
ance when he arrives at the ripe age Of
three score and ten.

A FLORAL DETECTIVE OF LONG
AGO. In early times the Dutch farm
ers of the up river farms of New York
had an ingenious way of recovering
pocket knives that might have been
dropped or mislaid while plowing or
gardening was going on. Cutlery was
not as cheap then and abundant as in
these days; so the farmers took the
thrifty precaution of keeping two or
three sunhower seeds in their knife
handles. Then if the knives fell upon
broken ground and could not be read
lily found, the owners would wait un.
til the seeds sprouted, and an isolated
sunflower stalk or blossom in field or
patch would signalize the possibility
of a missing articles being at its root.
True, the owner did not always realize
the result of the scheme, because a
passing boy who understood the token
often "got there" before the planter

A TOUGH HOG SToRY.-John Caesar
Cicero Gustavus Darling, the noted
Sullivan county hunter, is dead. For
nearly century he'had lived in his
mountain home at Sand Pond, where
the telling of his quaint yarns and the
presence of his dwarfed form and long,
flowing beard, reaching nearly to his
feet, made him famous. Scared and
dis6 cured by his encounters with ami
mails and crushed by bear until near
ly dead, he still lived, like most OF
Sullivan county's hardy woodsmen,
to a ripe old age. Itwas not the many
deer and bear which he killed that
gave the old man his celebrity, but his
propensity for story telling. One OF
his best yarns was told short time
before his death.
II once had hog that lost the use
of her hind legs" he said, "and made
a two wheeled trucked by saving two
rounds from a log eight inches in diam
eter. I then bored hole in the Gen.
ter of the wheels, whitfield stick the
right size, and in no time had cart,
which 1 placed under her hind parts.
She seemed to take kindly to it, and
turned her out to feed on beech nuts,
where she picked her living during the
winter. In the spring l found when
went to look for her that she had given
birth to 12 pigs, and every one had a
two wheeled truck underit. Even tha
brass headed nails and the strap that
used in fastening the truck to the moth
er were on the little trucks" ."-Si.

JUST A REMINDER.-"Henry, dear" "
said Mrs. Newbride to her husband
the other morning. 81 wish if it won't
be too much trouble, dear, that you'd
bring me home a yard of orange rib
bon this evening. I don't want it so
very wide nor so very narrow; some
thing between an inch and inch-and-a
half, or, at most an inch and three
quarters, will be about right. Be sure
and get pretty shade of orange, dear
and I'd prefer it with one side satin
and the other gros-grain, althoug b all
satin or all gros-grain will do; but l
think you can easily get the other If
you look around little; and be sure,
dear, not to get picquet-edged rib
bon, don't get slazy piece; and don't
get any shade but orange; not real
vivid orange, either, but a piece that
will look we'll with pale green and
don't pay over 35 or 40 cents for it
don's get red or blue, or green, or pink,
81 mistake. You won't forget will
you. dear? I must have the ribbon
tonight"
Was it any wonder that when the
dazed Henry came home he brought
three yards of sky-blue watered rib
bon? or, that, when his wife saw it,
she sank into a chair and gasped out

COIILDN'T UNDERSELL HIM.

A proprietor of country store was
noted for being partic cllarly affable
and obliging to his customers, and he
had a clear-headed and smart young
man for clerk. One day one of the
best customers of the concern called
to buy dress pattern. The price was
seventy-fve cents, and after a long
talk the clerk closed the bargain at
seventy cents. While the clerk was
selecting trimmings, etc., in another
part of the store, the genial proprietor
came along rubbing his hands, inquir-
ed after the family of the customer,
praised her taste in selecting that par
ticular piece of goods, and, as special
favor, let her have it for sixty-eight
cents per yard.
The clerk returned and the lady
told of the reduction the proprietor
had lust made. The clerk was furi-
Gus, but not in the least disconnected.
He saw that if the customers thought
that he was selling higher than others
in the store they would avoid him,
and his discharge would follow, so he
said:
ssI Just looked at the bill and can
sell you that piece at sixty-five cents a
yard"
When the deal was completed the
proprietor was as angry as the clerk.
"Do you know that made the price
sixty-eight cents?" said the proprie-
tor.

GOING AWAY FROM HoME.-"One
of the things that has hurt me more
than anything else in going away from
home," says the girl who started out
in the world to make her own way,
"was when l went back after some
time and found that I was no longer
necessity there. Every one was as
glad to see me as possible and affection
ate in every way, but I found that /
had gradually drifted out of the fami-
ly life-I was an outsider. They made
their plans and lived their lives with
out me. They did not need me in any
way. My outside life has been pleas
ant 1 have done what I intended to
do, and my relations with my family

little hurt feeling, that feeling of lone
someness, when l first found that l was

DIsoBEYED ORDERs.-The Roth.
childs once held a large quantity OF
cotton in New Orleans, which they in
structed the agent to sell when cotton
should reach a certain price. The
agent, believing that the price of cot.
ton would 60 beyond the figure named
by his employees, held on until he was
able to sell it at price which netted
$4,000 more than he would have got
for it if he had obeyed his orders from
London.
He joyfully informed his employers
of his success, supposing that they
would share his satisfaction at the re-
suit. Imagine his surprise aud cha

A SIMPLE DIsINFECTANT.-lt Is q
fact not generally taken into account,
because but imperfectly understood,
that pure, fresh, cold water is one oi
the most valuable disinfectants, mas
much as it is a powerful absorbent.
Every sick-room should have a large
vessel of clear water, frequently re-
newed, placed near the bed. This not
only absorbs much of the hurtful va
por, but by its evaporation, it softens
and tempers the atmosphere, doing
away with the dryness which is SO
trying and depressing to an invalid, or
even to persons in health, for that
matter. 1t has frequently been shown
by actual experiment that troubled
sleep and threatened insomnia are cor
rected by so simple thing as the
placing of an open bowl of water near
the sufferers bed. On the same prin-
ciple, water which has been standing
in an open vessel in sleeping-room,
or sick-room, should under no con-
ditiou be used for drinking nor should
any liquid intended as beverage be
allowed to thus stand open to contain
ination.-Northwestern.

s@- When one is very tired after a
shopping expedition, or hard journey,
the quickest way of obtaining rest,
according to prominent physical cul.
turist, is to throw ones self in a Cheap
in 8 large cushioned chair or on bed,
with every muscle absolutely relaxed.
In that most helpful book, "Power in
Repose," the author advocates the floor
as the best possible place for this bene-
fetal rest, and directs the weary one
to lie at full length, with every part OF
the body absolutely relaxed, until she
wonders how the floor can support so
heavy an object. 1t is the continued
tension, the unconscious endeavor to
hold an arm or head or some portion
of the body rigid, that often prevents
the perfect rest.

The KEROSENE EMULsIoN.-As the
kerosene emulsion is of such various
uses, it will be we'll for readers to take
especial pains to keep it on hand for
the daily emergencies happening on
every farm. 1t is made in this way
Slice thinly l pound of common soap
and dissolve it in boiling water. Add
to it twice as much kerosene as water,
and put it into II jar, in which it is
beaten and churned until the mixture
is like a smooth cream. When cold it
is white jelly, and is thus stored for
use. Take a sufficie'.t quantity and
dilute it with three to five times its
bulk of water, hot or cold, and shake
it or churn it until thoroughly well
mixed. This is sprayed or poured or
spread in any convenient way on what.
ever is desired to be freed from all
kinds of insect parasites, either on
animals or plants. 1t is one of the
best things for lambs or sheep, and the
worst for the ticks if used in a thor
ough manner.-Colman's Rural World

ABOUT TURNIps.-The turnip crop
should be a leading one, as large
supply can be secured from an acre oi
land. The growing of turnips for
winter is during the summer season,
but while the growing of turnips is
done somewhat carefully after the
ground is ready for the seed, the pro-
per preparation Of the ground is not al,
ways made. Weeds grow rapidly dur
ing warm weather, and to protect the
turnips the land should be plowed
now, narrowed, and the weed seeds
permitted to sprout, using the harrow
as often as may be necessary to de-
stroy them. Just before seeding the
turnips usually in July) the land
should be worked deep with a cultiva-
tor and then narrowed down again as
fine as possible. This will not only
cause fewer weeds to appear, but will
also increase the crop of turnips both
in the yield and quality.

To CURE HOG CHoLERA.-An ex-
change says that every paper in the
United States ought occasionally to
keep the fact before its readers that
burnt corn is a sure and speedy cure
for hog cholera. The best way is to
make pile of corn on the cob, effect
ually scorch it, and then give the hogs
free access to it. This remedy was
discovered by E. f. Locke, Esq, at
the time his distillery was burned in
this country, together with a large
quantity of store corn, which was so
much injured as to be unfit for use,
and was hauled out and greedily eaten
by the hogs, several Of which were
dying daily. After the second day
not a single hog was lost, and the dis
ease entirely disappeared. The remedy
has been tried in a number of cases
since and never failed.-Globe-D Demo
