He Took One Load.

1t is reported of the late William II.
Vanderbilt that his father, the eommO-

is doubtful, but a good story is told Of
an incident wherein the son proved
that he, too, carried in his head some

that he might live there, and to make

\ short time later the commodore in

man replied What need badly is

"Well, suppose you go up to nay sta

shall only give you one load"
"All right" replied the son, and he
took load; but, to the astonishment
of the commodore, when he went to
the stables they had been entirely
cleaned.

mine cart away from here:'' he inquir-
ed of the stableman.

How to Stop Snoring.
LII L DlNOo.i
Sc Warren St., n. Y. City.

To those who snOre and are aware
of the infirmity and wish TO get rid of
il we would commend the following:
There are two channels in which the
air travels in going to the lungs
namely, the nose and the mouth.
These two passages unite in common
cavity, and from that point there is
but one tube leading to the lungs.
There is bone, called the hard palate,
which forms the roof of the mouth and
the floor of the nose, separating these
two air channels from each other. At
the inner or posterior end of the bone
is little body called the soft palate,
made of muscle and covered with a
delicate skin. This soft palate is at
tached at one end to the hard palate.
The other end hangs loose and moves
or laps in the act of breathing, some
thing like a window curtain when
acted upon by current of air. This is
its condition while we are asleep or
awake, though during sleep II Is much
more relaxed or flabby than when we
are awake.
Now, in order to snore one must keep
the mouth open as well as the nose,
and in this condition the two currents
of air, passing in and out together dur
ing the act of breathing catch this little
current between them and throw il
into rapid vibration. This vibration,
more or less intense and sonorous, is
what we call snoring. 1t is only with
the mouth open that snoring can be ac-
complished. Try to sleep with your
mouth closed, and if you can succeed
in doing 50 you will cure yourself of a
very disagreeable performance-cer-
tainly disagreeable to others if not tC
yourself.-New York Ledger.

Respect, reverence, love or gratitude

This practical age does not worship,
but, leaving out the idea Of divinity,
to-day's greeting to the Queen and
Empress is its equivalent.
"That she was deeply moved was
evident, but she seemed more absorbed
by the significance Of the event than
conscious of her past. Therein she i'm
pressed me as proud and happy with
this grand tribute Of her people, but at
the same time sharing with them the
universal joy in the thought of both
oppressed and elevated that there has
not been such "A sixty years in recorded
time that all nations have enjoyed its
benefits and blessings, and none more
than our own.
GLoRIEs OF vICToRIA's REIGN.
"But, for this day and place, the
crowd only saw what Great Britain
has gained during her reign, and ac-
corded praise ther, for to her. Her reign
has been a period of emancipation ia
English history. The prerogatives
of the throne have diminished, and by
her rule and conduct its power has 80
increased that this welcome came with
such acclaim and unanimity from the
free people, governing themselves, who
gave in its might and majesty.
Making due allowance for the exal-
tatioD Of the hour, Victoria will occupy
a great place in the history Of the nine
teenth century. Her influence for
peace has been the momentous conse-
quence to Great Britain, Europe and
civilization.

1t requires about $50 pounds of but
ter per year to pay for the labor and
feed devoted to cow. The profit is
the amount produced above the pro-
portion necessary to pay the expense.
A COW that produces $50 pounds of
butter year will give four times the
profit that will be derived from a COW
producing 2O0 pounds Of butter per
year, as the first $50 pounds must be
charged to the cow as expense. Ii can
be seen, therefore, that one COW, Civ
ing $50 pounds of butter year, is
equal, in the profit given by her, to
four cows which produce 200 pounds
each during the same time. The one
COW will take up less room than will
four. These facts show where profit
from dairying is derived.

Farm Topics in Season.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Whether the farm has general
manure heap or not there should be n
place set apart for a compost factory;
that il, a receptacle where not
only fresh manure, but leaves, dirt,
slOps from the house and other sub
stances may be added. As there may
be more materials accumulated than
can be easily handled, the heap can be
turned over at any time, allowed to
heat and decOmpose at will, and be so
managed as to provide ready plant
food for immediate Use on flowers or
special plants in the garden. Such an
accumulation will be quite large in the
course of year, and if all the waste
substances Of the farm are added, and
the liquids from the stables used for
saturating them with dry dirt added,
there will be little or no loss of am
monia, and the substances will be well
decomposed and fine. No bulky ma
terial should go ON the compost heap,
the object being to Use absorbents to
prevent loss and to have the compost
n fine as dirt.
