who made the first fire, and the first
utensils for cooking, and the first rude
tools for industrial ends. All her ac-
tivities clustered about the hearth and
ministered to the home. If the woman

each other so that, to-day, women should

separate home. The shrewd modern in

UNSEASONED TUBS.
Large Quantities of Really Good But
ter Are Spoiled by Their Use
All Over the Country.

A great many unseasoned butter tubs
are being marketed by one or two
firms, which ought to be in better busi.
ness, but which somehow in the com.
petition between them do not exercise
the care they formerly manifested in
all their manufactures. OF course, it
will be said of the guilty concerns that
it is some one else that is turning out
such fresh material, but Investigations
show that the concerns in question
ought to be in better business if they
desire to maintain any sort of reputa-
ton for honest, decent goods. In writ
ing on this phase of the question to the
New York Produce Review, a Mr.. Dodge
says among other things: "All the
trouble that have had in the past three
years has been from sappy green wood,
and the trouble can only be overcome
by having the wood thoroughly dry and
fit for use. There is nothing manufac,
tured, that is made out of wood, until
the wood is properly seasoned. 1 see
no reason why this should not follow as
regards butter tubs" No reason what
ever, except the rapacity and narrow
greed of some of these manufacturers
1t makes great difference in the price
of butter that is not packed in first
class and thoroughly seasoned tubs OF
those raw and fresh. Tubs may look al
right on shipment, but after the butter
has been in transit to market, the de.
fects become apparent and the goods
are reported as off, affecting top quo.
-. Il, I
else the greatest care in such matters,
and if possible make such concerns
sign a contract to make good any losses
sustained through want of properly
seasoned tubs. There is no excuse for
It any more than there is for any other
kind of fraud Prairie Farmer.

At pink tea the other day, in ad.
dition to the candle shades and flowers
of that tint, Jumps of pink and white
candy were served with the beverages
that cheer. To sweeten tea with rock
candy is an English notion, and in its
behalf the claim is made that it is a
much purer form of saccharine than
sugar. At the same tea, plates of small

THE AMERICAN HOME.

I have no mind to harrow up the
minds of my readers with any explica-
ton of the miseries and mysteries that
confront the average housekeeper in the
daily maintenance of a simple but COM
Portable existence for her family; as
for herself, an existence at all seems
a struggle which at times she would
gladly give over. One might define a
heroine as the average American wom-
an who does her own housekeeping.
But some hint of the unnatural and un-
happy state of affairs existing at pres
ent may be deduced from the consid-
Grafton of two economic facts. First,
woman is, by nature, home founder
and a home maker. This is not intended
as an assertion of personal belief, but

DOCTORS DON'T DENY 1T.
The frank testimony of a
famous physician.

when Dr. Aver announced his Sarsapa-
rilla to the world, he at once found the
physicians his friends. Such a remedy
was what they had looked for, and they
were prompt to appreciate its merits and
prescribe it. Perhaps no medicine-known
as a patent medicine-is so generally ad-
ministered and prescribed by physicians a $
DR. Ayers Sarsaparilla for blood diseases,
and diseases of the skin that indicate a
tainted condition of the blood. Experience
has proved it to be a specific in such
diseases, and sores of long standing, old
ulcers, chronic rheumatism, and many
other like forms of disease have yielded to
the persevering use of DR.. Ayers Sarsapar-
lila after other medicines had utterly failed.
The testimonials received from physicians
to the value of this remedy would fill
volume. Here is one leaf signed by Rich'd
II. Lawrence, NJ. D., Baltimore, Md.
"It affords me pleasure to bear testimony
to the success which your preparation of
Sarsaparilla has had in the treatment of
cutaneous and other diseases arising from
a vitiated condition of the blood. Were 1t
necessary, might give you the names of
at least fifty individuals who have been
cured of long standing complaints simply
by the administration of DR.. Ayers Sarsa-
pa-rilla. One very remarkable instance
was that of quite old woman who had lived
at CatonsvIlle, near this city. She had been

afflicted with the rheumatism for three
years, and had taken she had infoT ed
me, more than one hundred dollars worth
of medicine to obtain relief, yet without
any beneficial result. ! advised her to try
bottle of DIR. Ayers Sarsaparilla and TOLD
her that if 1t failed to do her good, / would
refund the money. A short time after
ward, learned that il had cured her, and
a neighbor OF hers similarly afflicted was
also entirely relieved of his complaint by
its use. This is the universal result of the
administration of your Sarsaparilla. II
is without exception, the best blood puri.
fer with which am acquainted"
There is no other similar medicine can
show a similar record. Others have imi-
tated the rem edy. They can't initiate the
record. DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla has the
friendship of the physician and the favor
OF the family, because 1t cures. 1t fulhlls
all promises made for it. 1t has healed
thousands of people of the most malignant
diseases that can mutilate mankind.
Nothing has ever supe Tceded it and moth
ing ever will until a medicine is made
that can show a record OF cures greater In
number and equal in wonder to those
wrought by DR.. Ayers SaTsaparilla. DR..
Ayers Curebook, story of cures told by
the cured, is sent free on request by the
