NO WOMAN IS EXEMPT.

Regularityi q matter of importance In every woman's life Much pain is, however, endured in the belief that 1t is necessary and not alarming. when in truth it Is all wrong and indicates derangement that may cause serious trouble.
 Excessive monthly pain itself will unsettle the nerves and make women old before their time.

the above analysis by Johnston shows
that it is an essential ingredient-in
ashes, and according to Prof Maercker
viii replace potash in plants. AS the
New York station points out, "there are
no ashes found in the market agreeing
in composition with that of pure, I'M
leached hardwood ashes so frequently
advertised. By burning different varie-
ties of air-dried hard and soft woods in
a furious fire on an open hearth, this
station obtained hardwood ashes which
contained 10 per cent Of potash and 2
per cent of phnsphoric acid, and soft
wood ashes which contained 694 per
cent of potash and 81 per cent of phos-
phoric acid When burned at a low tenn
perature the hardwood ashes contained
1875 per cent of potash and the softwood
ashes 9.6l per cent of potash. The dis
crepancy between the composition of
these carefully prepared ashes and those
usually found on the market is due
either to teaching or to accidental or in
territorial admiXture of other sub
stances"
Potash in wood ashes in the form Of
a carbonate, carbonic acid and the car
Donates decomposes the earthly alkaline
and metallic silicates Of soils. Muriates
and sulphates exercise a reverse physi-
cal effect on the soils, and mllriates
in the plant The base of all salts act
ever the same in agriculture. Peculiar
lty of action depends ON the acid, of the
salts.
In the experiment station record, vol.
9, No. 8, page 207, Prof M. Maerckers
Phi. D., director of the experiment sta
ton at Halle, Germany, says: Further
more according to recent investigations
by Hellriegel and Willfurth, we must
assume that a certain replacement of
potash by soda may take place in plants.
This may be of extensive practical inter-
est, since the crude Stassfurt potash
salts containing soda would be more
economical to use than the pure potash
salts" Prof. Norton in his Elements
Scientific Agriculture, 18th page, in ref
erence to potash and soda, says: I'm fact
the two are much alike in many of their
properties and also in the purposes
which they seem to serve in plants"
Thus it appears, that a certain replace
ment of potash by sody may take place
in plants" and that in consequence
thereof the soda in the crude
Stassfurt potash salts, containing soda,
has value; this being admitted. the
same reason applies to the soda in wood
ashes as well as in nitrate of soda; they
should be valued; this would reduce the
cost Of nitrogen in nitrate of soda. and
make 1t the cheapest source of nitrogen
to be had. tThe replacement of potash
by soda in the plant" also brings into
manurial use carbonate of soda. a much
better form than muriate. and as car
Donate of soda is so much lower in price
than the carbonate or even the muriate
of potash, it will rapidly lead to its in
creased use in agriculture as manut1al
agent in place of the Stassfurt potash
salts' Andrew H Ward

tier than they are this year.

Now, the proofreader in this case, al
though man of excellent education
and of splendid memory, lacked one nee
essary element in his makeup ysical
courage; and SO, when the enraged au-
thor entered his room and leaning, over
his shoulder remarked, young man,

proved too much for the irascible old

down repeatedly on the offenders head
and shoulders, cried "Then (whack)

the proofreader remained seated mo

through the door, and the last seen of
