Potato Disease in Ireland.

The disease which is destroying the
potato crop i'll Ireland is known as
"%Fhytopllora infest"ns." and prevails
more on moist soils than where the
land is dry. though dry soils are not
free from the disease. 1t generally
affects the tulcrs late in the season.
and frequently the attack is sudden
and fatal. 1t begins as IL single spot
on tile leaf. spreading to the entire
plant. prevailing mostly during damp
weather. Where the potatoes have
been sprayed with Bordeaux mixture
the disease seems to he checked.

Make baby as free as possible. Don't
swaddle it's little, soft legs Up in pin

so they can kick about and growstrong
and healthy. 1t is crime to put so
many clothes on a baby. People of ma
ture years fretwith the weight of cloth
ing they must carry about, and it is not
fair to load little helpless children down
with them.

cording to the present day etiquette. it
is decidedly SO, but it certainly does
sound nicer to hear children say Eyes.

say plain "yes" and mo" when asked
question or requested to do some lit
tie thing, and it is absolutely refresh
ing to find among the spindle-legged lit
tie imps who wear knee breeches and
carry watches now and then one who
lifts his cap when spoken to on the
street by a lady. After all, a few more
dear old Turveydrops in read life would
make it more comfortable existence.
Life in its completest sense Is worth
studying, worth considering how to get
the very best out of it, and safer the
least. Our children should be taught
from their infancy to make the most
Of their advantages, that they may get
all the good out of life and avoid all un-
necessary pain. The old hymn said: 1T
is not all of life to live nor all of death
| to die" and there was much homely
philosophy in it. Just to live for self
alone is sordid and selfish and grows
to, sin at last. To seek death to avoid
the consequences of this selfish sin is
not uncommon, and the death is but
typical of the life. Lead your little ones
gently but firmly along the right path
from the start, and you will have moth
ing to regret in after years.

a nice thing to carry along on little
country trips, in case the weather

Some children suffer dreadfully with
hives, and it is always dangerous to
drive them in by applying things on the
outside, as they denote impurity of the
blood that ought to be brought out in
sead of driven in. While you are giving
1t some mild blood medicine you can
ease the dreadful itching of the hives
by baths of salt water or by applying
damp soda directly to the bumps. Both
are good remedies for mosquito bites

Young unmarried women, especially, do

Crur a Alone Press.
Gold standacd papers and Mckinley
supporters generally seem to be very
much elated over the fact that wheat is
advancing and silver declng in price.
They claim it is due to the Mckinley adj
mlnlsiralion, overlooking entirely the
fact that 5000. 600 people have starved to
death on account Of the failure OF the
wheat crop IN India; that the wheat crop
in the Dakotas is 10000. 900 bushels
short and that the Russian crop is al.
most a total failure. In the eyes of a
deluded follower Of Mckinley none OF
these things have caused the advance in
wheat-it is due to Mckinley And
when they rejoice over the decline OF
silver they admit that the actions OF tn,
