Authors in China.

Authors in China have lovely time. When the editor rejects contribution he does not return it together with a cruelty polite little printed slip which states that it is not because of any fault with the MS, but because of the present large supply on hand of matter of the same description" the article is returned Nc; this is the kind of let- ter the Chinese editor writes:
 "Illustrious Brother of the Sun and Moon! Behold thy servant at thy feet, who kisses the earth before thee and asks thy gracious permission to speak and live. We have read thy manu- ecript with delight. By the bones of our ancestors we swear that we have never found such manuscript! If we should print it, his majesty, the em- peror, would command us to adopt it as a standard and never again print anything not equal to it. AS that would not be possible within 10000 years, we return thy manuscript, trem- bling and imploring thy pardon 10000 times. My head is at thy feet and am the slave of thy slave"
 Courtesy could hardly be carried fur ther, and whenever they decline an ar ticle the Chinese newspapers must make a friend of the author.

It was taken home and cared for but showed no inclina- ton to talk until few months ago. It talks as well as parrots, but 9avors words containing "o' and Hello, hel- 10. Moses, Ora.

IN JAIL FOR DEBT.
4 Debtors Prison Where Immortality
 Reigned Supreme.

Reigned Supreme.
 The Kings Bench was the largest of all the debtors prisons. It formerly stood on the east side of the High street, on the site of what is now the second street north of St. George's Church, London. This prison was taken down in 175s, and the debtors were removed to a larger and much more commodious place on the other side of the street south of Lant street. the site is now marked by number of new and very ugly houses and mean streets. In the year 1776 the prisoners had to lie two in bed, and even for those who could pay there were not beds enough, and many slept on the floor of the chapel. There were 395 prisoners; in addition to the prisoners many of them had wives and children with them. There were 279 wives and 275 ehildren-a total of 1899 sleeping every night in the prison. There was good water supply, but there was no infrmary, no resident surgeon, and no bath. Imagine place containing 1899 persons, and no bath and no infrmary! Among these prisoners, about a hun dred years ago, was a certain Colonel George Hanger, who has left his Me moirs" behind him for the edifcation of posterity. According to him the prison "rivaled the purlieus of Wap- ping, St. Giles, and St. James in vice, debauchery, and drunkenness" The general immortality was so great that it was only possible, he says, to escape eontagion by living separate, or by consorttng only with the few gentle men of honor who might be found there. Otherwise man will quickly sink into dissipation; he will lose every sense of honor and dignity, every moral principal and virtuous disposition"

The divorce evil seems to grow with every year. 7,5oo divorces were granted i'll the State of Ohio last year. We agree that there are faults on both sides. but the great problem is: Are those faults renedi- able To great extent there is no doubt the conditions which result ill divorce may be remedied. Given a dyspeptic husband and wife suffering from female trouble and we have the ready made elements of q divorce case. In view of the facts there can be very little doubt that nanv women look forward to divorce only because they seek relief from obligations they do not feel fitted to fulfill Women are not to blame. They have looked forward to their home life as a dream of paradise. Then disease comes like a serpent and destroys all happiness.
 Women who suffer with facilitating drains, inflammation, alteration, female trouble and bearing down pains, will find certain relief and cure i'll Doctor Pierce's Favor1te Prescription. It so invigorates the organs peculiarly feminine and regn- lates their functions that they are estab- Ished in a perfectly healthy condition. The old lightness of heart comes back : there's light i'll the eyes and a smile on the lips. The old irritation and nervousness are gone, and the husband comes to his home as haven of rest and comfort
 ''I was troubled with female weakness and after taking three bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favor ite Prescription I am free from pains y wrifes Mrs May F. Jones, 529 Madison Ave, Ypsiauti Mich.

RURAL TELEPHONES.
Ohio Farmers Are Making Wide.
spread Use of a Convenient ana
Economical System, 81

The rural telephone service is said to
be far advanced in northeastern Ohio.
and particularly in Geauga county,
which is strictly an agricultural coun-
ty. According to the Electrical World
and Engineer, not only is there an office
in every township, but hundreds Of
farmers have telephones in their homes.
One Of the companies in the county
named is strictly a farmers company,
it being operated by eight farmers, who
own everything from franchise to
switchboard. The primary object in
constructing the lines was not to build
them for an investment, but as a helm
in the transaction of business and to
give the familiessome of the social priyi-
leges that are too often lacking on the
farm. A modern hundred drop SWITCH
board is centrally located in the home
of one of the company, who with the
help of his family attends to this work
very satisfactorily. The rental price
of a telephone is only SIP year, in adj
vance, or $1.25 by the month, and this
entities the subscriber. his 4 ,nily, hired
help and guests to the free use Of the
lines and those with which the COM
pany has reciprocity contracts. The
low rate of rental is made possible only
in the country by placing several tele-
phones in each circuit, usually one.
street or neighborhood being on the
same wire.

Baby's Hair.

Sometimes a few hints are worth
untold millions to q poor, perplexed
young mother, with no fond and ex-
perienced grandmother within call to
cut the gordian knot of an unexpected
nursery problem. In consequence baby
may often suffer inconvenience and
pain while the doting mamma is doc
toring the soft, silky down with which
his little head is covered. AS every
one of experience knows, baby's scalp
is very sensitive, and the bones of
the skull are not completely closed
up until baby is almost two years old,
and when any wise woman advocates
the use of alcohol for the purpose of
promoting the growth of the hair or
keeping the scalp free from all baby
ailments, alent scurvy should appear
on the head, despite the care and
daily washings, do not rub it with
alcohol or use a fne-tooth comb for
loosening it, but apply frequent and
homeopathic doses of vaseline until
the trouble has all disappeared and
the little head is free from all disfig-
urements. Vaseline will also pro-
mote the growth of the hair and make
it come in thicker and more silky

Root. Exhaust the Soil.

All kinds of root crops are very ex-
haust;ve of soil fertility. They are all
great users of the available nitrogen
that the soil contains, and the turnips
also require mineral fertility as well.
We once grew patch of turnips in a
field of corn, where, owing to the wet
soil, the corn was pulled out by fowls,
and it was too late to replant it. The
turnips were good crop, but when we
came to harvesting the oat crop that
grew on the field the next year there
was such marked inferiority of the crop
where the turnip crop had grown that
every passer-by noticed it. What the
root crop appears to take is the avail
able nitrogen. Wherever it is grown a
clover crop should follow as soon as
possible, to restore the kind of fertil-
ity that the roots have exhausted

Liberty Of Guests.

The ideal hostess is she who permits
her guests some measure of local option
or of individual liberty. She does not
insist on their accompanying her on ex-
cursions to which they do not want to
go; neither does she remain at home
with them if she discovers they are only
accepting out of politeness. If she is
unsuccessful in ascertaining what the
visitors prefer in the way of being en-
tertained, she has the grace to leave
them to their own devices. The sched-
ule Of the day is laid out at breakfast,
If not the evening before. Those who
do not care to drive or sail are allowed
''the liberty of the subject" as they
say in England. A too strenuous hos
pitality is a terror to its victim. There
is a happy medium between being a
"whipper-in" and neglectful hostess.

rod (CE) seven inches long, and the
upright (DF) four inches long. The
plates (B and Az have holes in them, by
which a block of wood is screwed to the
iron. A thick piece of leather can also
be used. Save the team all unnecessary
wear and it will do more work for you,
and in this connection it may be said
that a brake is useful on wagon or
cart when the team is drawing load
up hill as well as when going down,
for nowhere should team be favored
more than in drawing load uphill.
With o brake one can stop at any point
and rest the horses, taking the weight
of the load entirely off their shoulders.
The brake rod (G) should have either a
loop at the top OF round knob of wood
or metal, that the hand may grasp the
rod easily and firmly.-N. Y. Tribune.
