ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable to any form
of disease except by one of two ways.
The first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way is
from a careless local treatment of other
diseases.

STYLES IN PARLOR STOVES.
The Evolution of the Self Feeder-"High
Art and Low Feed"

Art and Low Feed"
The modern American self feeding
parlOr stove, which also was originally
made cylindrical i'll form, is now almost
without exception made square. The
self feeder commended itself at once
upon its introduction and it soon came
into wide use. Its utility was every
where recognized. 1t was not then.
however, so perfect in detail as it has
since been made. The magazine was at
first made larger than was really neces-
sary, even for the purpose of such a
stove. In a large size self feeder, stand
ing pretty high generally, the opening
into the magazine at the top, through
which the coal was poured, was so high
that it became quite a task to lift a
scuttle of Goa! up to it. This was'not so
much noticed at the very outset, when
people were more impressed by other
features, but it speedily became a con.
sideration Of Importance. Itwas said at
the time that in feeding some of the
stoves a stepladder was needed. 1t GER
tainly did require a considerable degree
of exertion.
The ornamentatiOn Of the stove at
that time consisted of holdings and
bands, and perhaps of wreaths in low
relief, cast upon the upper part of the
cylinder, looped around the top, and the
stove was often surmounted with an
ornamental urn. All this made hand
some stove, as stoves went, but it was
felt that something better might be pro-
duced in the way of style and finish
and that 1t was practically essential that
something should be done to lower the
feed. These two requisites to the high
est development and greater success of
the self feeding parlor stove were form
.nlaSaSlAin the phase high at and low
feed" once familiar in the trade. The
demands were promptly met
To bring the feed lower, the whole
stove was lowered wherever it could be
done, a trifle being taken here and
there, the CRATE was lowered a little.
and the magazine was reduced in size
where that could be done and still
leave it of ample size to meet essential
requriments. The effect of these changes
was to bring the feed down TO where it
is today, within convenient reach, and
the general lowering of the structure of
she stove was in keeping also with the
new outward shape that was adopted,
square instead of round, the fire pot,
however, remaining round.
At first in the ornamentation of
stoves of the new design tiles were used
freely and some of the parts of the
stoves or their trimmings were nickel
plated. Tiles are still used to q consid-
cradle extent Nickel plating is more
freely used than at first, and bronze is
now used also. While the stoves are in
outline and effect square it does not fol-
low that they are fiat sided. Some are
recessed, some have swell sides. They
are made in various notifications of
shape and in a great variety of styles Of
finish as to Ornamentation in tiles and
nickel plating, and III a great variety
OF ornamental patterns reproduced in
the castings themselves. Many Of these
stoves are tasteful as we'll as elaborate.
High art and low feed" are combined
in them.-New York Sun.

A Cough Remedy.

A troublesome throat irritation or
cough, the result of a cold, is most an
noying, but home remedy will re-
lieve and oftentimes cure it without the
aid of other medicines. The following
formula was given by physician many
years ago and has been found to be Of
great value: Take a quarter of u pound
of the best gum arabic and pour over it
half a pint of hot water. Cover and
leave it until the gum is dissolved. Then
add a quarter of a pound of pure white
sugar and a generous half gill of strain
ed lemon juice. Place these ingredients
over the fire and let them simmer about
ten minutes. Then pour the mixture in
to bottle and cork. When taking this
sirup, little water may be added.

Indians's State Superintendent of
Schools has suggested that instruction
in writing should likewise include the
writing of letters, his observation hav-
ing taught him that many boys and
girls go through the schools without
acquiring this useful and necessary
art. This suggestion is of national
pertinence. 1t is true that grammer
schools as rule compel the children to
write compositions; but these are in
variably upon such abstract themes
that they are valueless in teaching the
children either to think or express
their thoughts. Letter writing would
teach them the art of written express
sion along natural lines, and thus pro-
vide exercise at the same time for their
fingers and their faculties.
