DR.. John Madison Taylor, in an
article on "Children of Feeble Resist.
ance; Their Care and Management =
published in the Medical Times and
Hospital Gazette, December 10, 1896,
saws that it is very unwise to submit
babies to rapid journeys and the look
ing out of windows at swiftly passing
objects while flying along. He says
that he has seen migraine develop ap-
parently through the custom OF giving
small children exercise in a carriage
with a pair of fast horses every day.
Certain instances of profound distur-
bance have been caused by this means,
and it is reasonable to infer that a
continuance of such measures may
produce lasting damage upon so deli
cate an organ as the eye, and the
whole sensitive organism is thus m
periled. 1t is also unwise to encour-
age q child to sleep while being driven
about. The motion is both regular
and subject to sudden irregularities
The persistence of one kind of mo-
ton up and down is bad, not only pro-
ducing unsound sleep, but keeping mp
q molecular agitation which has little
to recommend it. If the infant be suf-
ficiently old to sit up or be held up
by the nurse, a strain is put upon the
spinal column. Thus continuous mild
conclusions are administered to the
brain and spinal cord; the eye is put
upon a strain, thus acting directly
upon the brain; an element of excite
ment is introduced, and physiological
irritability is the probable result

George vauderpool of Fulton conn
ty, New York, writes to the American
Agriculturist: In a recent issue OF
your journal this subject is considered
by Fred Grundy in what seems to me
a radical manner. In substance, he
advised A. B. G. to exterminate his
flock and begin anew, and to carry
all the scrapings and sweepings not
less than a quarter of a mile away"
1 was surprised that he did not add,
and burn the buildings. l can under
stand that with an entire flock in the
last stages of the disease extermina-
ton might be the better way, but
roup can be handled if taken in time.
For many years l have kept from
25 to 80 hens in a basement under
my barn, which the fall and spring
rains usually make quite wet. Yet
with a good supply Of road dust, air
slaked lime, kerosene and fair care, 1
very seldom have n sick chicken.
Perhaps two or three times a year |
will find a hen or two with roup. /
Immediately remove them to a small
room in the barn above, and with a
dish of warm, soft water and cloth
wash their heads. Then into a small
oil can, such as is used with q sewing
machine, Iput one t~easpoonful each
of kerosene and sweet oil and add
four or five drops of carbolic acid.
Put a few drops into the nose, and
also in the throat, after removing the
yellow ulcers with a quill. Given this
treatment twice a day for four to
seven days and cooked, easily digested
food and fresh clean water, they are
ready to join the flock. haven't lost
a fowl with roup in eight years.

"waxy- POTATOES.

The eason why potatoes grow waxy
Is usually owing to some injury to the
foliage, which thus prevents it from
changing the juices of the tuber into
starch. But in seasons when there is
much rain and very little sunshine, the
potatoes are sometimes effected the
same way, though the leaves be mini
lured. In such case it is still owingto
the failure of the potato leaves to full
fill their proper work, as the leaves
only change juices into starch when
they are dry and exposed to sunlight.
In Ireland, where the weather during
the growing season is mostly cloudy,
and often rainy, the potatoes are al
ways waxy, aud to the American taste
they are UNBEATABLE. Yet the people of
the British islands prefer these waxy
potatoes to the more starchy ones that
this country supplies. They have,
possibly, a larger portion of nitrogen
Gus nutrition than our potatoes, though
this is partly, at least, due to the fact
that they have less starch. We would
not advise planting these waxy pota-
toes. Our experience with them has
only been with such as were injured

swarming Box for Bees.

Every b~eekeeper should have q
swarming box. 1t is not only con-
venient in living bees, but it
cutting and m~utilating fruit trees and
other shrubbery upon which bees are
liable to cluster. Make of some light
material ten or twelve inches square,
or longer one way than the other, and
close one end. Put a hole through the
centre and attach a handle some ten
feet long. With an inch bit fill with
holes, so as to give the bees ventila-
ton. This is important when swarm
ing, for they cannot stand close con-
fnement If filed with honey, ashley
are at that time. After the swarm
settles push the box up into the clus-
ter of bees, and they will go in read
lily, and may be carried to the hive and
treated in the usual way. They may
be left In the swarming box for a short
time, but swarms should always be
hived as soon as possible after issuing.
These boxes may be used for catching
or arresting warn by placing q cage
containing a queen and some bees IN
them. This will attract the attention
of the swarm and oftentimes they will
alight on it. Where large numbers OF
bees are kept, these boxes are very
handy and q number of them on hand
to accommodate swarms that come
ont at or near the same time, rs in
this case they are liable to cluster to-
| gether, and with the use of such con
v~eniences they may be kept separate.

A Darker Africa.

DR.. Schulz, who has Just returned
to London from Africa, says that 'the
public impression that the continent
of Africa is no longer the unexplored
area of the old map is a mistake"
What has been done is to stake out
territories along definite routes, but
within these lines the country is gen
orally as unknown as in the time of
Mungo Park. DIR. Schulz has traversed
and surveyed a vast tract of country
which no white traveller has ever seen
before. This new territory lies be-
tween the British dominions in the
west and northwest, and the Congo
and German territories in the south
west and west. Through these I'M
known lands flows a large river called
by the natives Chobe, which empties
itself into the Zambeze.

m from no less noted a seer than

the new machine appears it will make
the bicvcle take second place as rapidly
AZ the bicycle has displaced the horse.
There are now many makes OF horse,
less carriages, and they are being inn
proved constantly. They are still SO
expensive, however, that their use Is
very limited, and they are seldom seen
outside of the great cities.
Such a motor-vehicle as Mr., Edison
expects would certainly cut deep into
the bicycle business, but ut present
the bicycle moves ahead conquering

NAV come the bicycle will remain with

Is China AMnkeninP2

1t is said that since her recent de-
feat by Japan the Ministers of China
have altogether changed their attitude
toward European teachers, Formerly
no European could walk through the
streets of a Chinese city without being
frequently insulted. But now even
the common people have changed their
attitude toward foreigners. A new
Chinese dollar has recently been coined
at Pei-yang, and bears on one side the
English words, "Twenty-second year
of Kawang Shu, Pei-Yang," which is
taken as a proof of the growing in
fiuence of foreign customs. Christian
teachers are actually being encouraged
in many parts, and some Chinese a
darins have declared that the adoption
of Christianity would undoubtedly lead
to a great alteration in the place of
China among civilized Nations.

Charles L. Brown, acoloredpeddler,
is locked up at Station 3 for the theft
of a bicycle from Mrs. Margaret De-
land, the authoress. Last Saturday
afternoon Mr.. Lorin F. Deland, his
wife and the family governess, upon
their return from a ride, left their
wheels in the yard of their house on
Mount Vernon street. Late that
night a noise was hearli|trsskard,
but as the watch dog failed to bark at
the intruder no notice was taken of it.
In the morning it was discovered
that Mrs. Deland's bicycle had been
stolen. The police traced the wheel
to Browns house Brown admitted
the theft, and said he took the bicycle
for his wife. Mrs. Deland's watch
dog is a great Dane, a gift from Eng.
fish friends, a most vigilant caretaker
ordinarily, How Brown kept him
quiet is a mystery. The mans neigh
bors says that he is master of q
strange hypnotic power that enables
him to subdue the ~fiercest animals by
the power of his eye.-Boston Herald.

A western agricultural writer says
that there are just as good mixers
among cows that do not kick Us there
are among those that do. This. we
think, is hardly the fact. 1t is the
tenderness in the udder, caused by
the presence of a large amount of milk,
that makes careless handling of the
teats very painful. The result is that
the COW becomes o kicker, and soon
this grows into q habit not easily
broken. 1t is usually the fault of the
mar who breaks the heifer to being
MIXED who is responsible for her
character as a mixer. If the first
operations on the teats are gentle,
drawing milk slowly until the bag is
somewhat eased, milking is a soothing
and pleasure.giving process for the
COW. For the first few times the
heifer Is MIXED she should have some
appetizing feed set before her, which
she can eat while the milk Is being
drawn. This should always be given
when there is danger that the COW will
hold up her milk. The cow Is a one
Idea animal. When she Is eating
heartily she cannot easily think of
anything else.

The location of the orchardis always
an important item. OF course it must
be chosen from such land as one has,
and while 1t may not be the best, yet
a little care In selecting and planning
may at least prevent it from being the
worst.
One item that always should be
looked after is prevention from the
prevailing winds, as exposure to hard
winds often injuries the beeswax in the
spring, and in a MEASURE prevents the
setting Of fruit; and again, in the fall,
winds do considerable damage by
blowing off the fruit or breaking down
the heavily loaded limbs. In fact, in
very many cases rather than allow an
orchard to grow in an exposed situa-
ton, in a majority of cases it will be
best to plant Q row of trees especially
as hEsnrthe north and
west winds. In some localities q
northern exposure is considered best,
as the blossoming is retarded to some
extent at least in the sI~ng, and the
danger of late spring frost IS consld-
erably reduced.
One item that should always be con-
sidered is good drainage. There are
few, if any, varieties of fruits that do
well in what may be termed a wet
soil, and in some way good drainage
should always be provided.
When it can be done it is best to
select q site a little back from the
public road, as after the orchard comes
into bearing more or less loss will be
occasioned by passers-by. Not SO
much in the amount of fruit they will
eat or carry away, but to the fence II
coming in and going out and the trees
md frnit in knocking off particular
specimens that they may take a fancy
to. When it can be secured a deeI
soil is always preferable, as in nearly
or quite all cases, trees growing in 1
deep soil suffer less from climate il

The Chinese government is slowly
but surely pushing forward the rail
road from Tientsin to Pekin, and it is
expected that soon the traveller will be
able to go by rail from the seashore te
the gates of the mysterious capital.
This will add about ninety miles to the
124 of the road from Tientsin to the
Kaiping coal mines, which now CON
stitute the railway system of China.
The spell of prejudice has been broken
and several other railway enterprises
are now on foot. The chief of these, .
great trunk line from Pekin south.
westerly to Hankow on the coast, .
distance of some 14O0 miles, has al
ready been started, with a small gov.
eminent subsidy, but its rapid con.
struction is not to be expected. A
short road from Shanghai to Woosung
is also in progress.

"Why don't you go into bank
ruptcy?" asked Judge Emden, of the
Lambeth county court, England, when
Mr.. Caswell, a sausage manufacturer
of Camberwell, candidly admitted that
he could not pay his debts except by
small installments. 81 am poor mar
and can't afford it," replied the latter,
who seemed to regard his honor's
question as tantamount to asking q
man with only twopence in his pocket
why he did not treat himself to turtle
soup and milk punch. Such Injuries
as bankruptcy are not meant for the
poor, and he sighed as he added: "You
can't become bankrupt unless you
have money" "Ah, yes" replied his
honor, quite true. A man in your
position cannot indulge in the luxury
of bankruptcy" So the unfortunate
sausagemaker was ordered to pay up
at the rate of ten shillings per month
or go to jail for fourteen days.

Goat peyours Greenbaeks.

Z The treasurer of a Michigan town
ship accounted for the disappearance
of s400 in g~reenbacks by declaring
that o goat had devoured the bills. A
post-mortem examination showed that
the statement was true. The four
footed epicure had come across the
township funds in an iron pot under
the ~treasurer's house and made haste
TO enjoy the first mess Of greens of the
season.
1t has become the practice to charge
deficits and disappearance of public
funds to extravaganza, defalcations
and other forms of official misconduct,
but in view of the experience of this
Michigan township would it not be well
TO find out if there is not some Other
explanation of reduced or empty treas
uries? The fault may not lie SO much
with tariffs, expensive Legislation
and dishonest treasurers as with lear
and hungry goats.-Buffalo IN. Y.

Professor Luigi Dambon, Of R2mey
attempts to prove that northern lati-
tudes do not conduce to longevity.
He says the average Arab outlives the
average Esquimo by no less than
twenty-five years, and that the people
who live on the unhealthy coasts of
South America survive the inhabitants
of the higher and cooler attitudes OF
the interior. The natives of India
live to a surprising old age. Even in
Europe people live longer in the south
than in the North. Among the ~

There is wide difference in the value
of street scrapings as manure. In the
centre of cities, where the streets are
paved and much travelled, all the refuse
gathered from them is excrement OF
horses. But in the suburbs of cities
this excrement is much mixed with
mud from the unpayed dirt roads
which Is brought in by wheeled
vehicles. Such street scrapings are
not worth drawing for. In any event
these scrapings are likely to have
many weed seeds and of kinds that
may not have been known before.
