The Old CIuckine Hen.

There is something almost pathetic
in the faithfulness to business and the
unwavering diligence of the ordinary
hen when she gets her heart set on
Matching out brood Of chickens. She
will sit all day on an cid doorknob and
dream of the happy day when she can
strut around in the back lot with doz-.
en- or so of fuzzy chicks at her heels,
scratching and clucking and swelling
ont her feathers with self Importance.
In order to satisfy this motherly in
stinct she is not only willing, but fran
tic, to deny herself all Of the ordinary
pleasures of life. She doesn't care for a
s.good time. y, She is perfectly content
to stay at home and attend to her ma
ternal duties, and has no concern about
how Mr feathers are adjusted or wheth-
er her comb hangs straight. When a
hen is laying and not thinking of faIaily
matters, she takes pride in red comb,
and is frequently seen oiling her feath-
ers and trying to make herself look at
tractive.
But your ..old cluck' is perfect
type Of the devoted mother. Her whole
being is absorbed in the one thought OF
rearing her family, and even if required
to hatch out brood Of ducks or tur-
keys she bends to her task with the
same enthusiasm as though she had laid
the eggs self.-Punxsutawney Spirit

Animals Like Tobacco.

"I have been an invetcrate user Of

"For instance, the common brown beal'

against the iron bars over which tht
smoke passes. This is invariable.

Things to Remember.

Many things that housekeeper
finds we'll worth remembering are not .
always recalled at the moment when
they a-e most needed. A list Of such
items should be hung upon the kitchen
wall, where it can be easily consulted.
The following are some Of the items
that ought to be placed on such list:
If possible, vegetables should be
cooked the same day they are gathered.
Poultry should not be eaten until
twelve or fourteen hours after it is
killed.
Mildew spots can be removed if they
are rubbed with mixture Of soap and
chalk.
Warm bread and cake can be neatly
cut by using knife which has been
heated in boiling water.
Onions are preventive and often
times cure for malarial fever.
Onions, garlic, leeks, olives and
shallots stimulate the circulation, in
crease the saliva and gastric juice, and
promote digestion.
Peas and beans are the most nutri-
tious Of vegetables, containing as much
carbon as wheat and double the
amount Of muscle-forming food.
A small pinch Of carbonate Of soda
in the water preserves the color OF
vegetables and lessons the unpleasant
odor Of cabbage and onions when COOK
ing.
Celery engenders sleep.
Asparagus purges the blood.
Tomatoes act directly on the liver.
Spinach and dandelion leaves are
excellent for the kidneys.
