Probably one of the greatest advan-
tages of lyddite is its absolute safety to
handle, which we can realize when we

tury without its powers being even sus-
pected In this respect, combined with
it's superlative destructive capacities
lyddite approaches an ideal explosive

it will play an extremely important

even to send our city friends yard or
two of sausage Or taste of liverwurst
lest they should be devoured by the
trichina contained therein and we
probably be pulled in for killing by
hog. And even when our friends are

Mother Love Conquered.

A pathetic incident which happened
recently in this city shows that strong
will can sometimes do more in combat
ing dread disease than all the skill of
the medical fraternity. An entire fam
lily, consisting Of both parents and four
children of tender age was stricken
with malignant pneumonia. The wife
was apparently the worse sufferer, and
her case was given up by the doctors as
beyond hope. Meanwhile her husband
became suddenly worse and died. Ev-
erything that medical science could do
had been done for the wife without
avail, and after consultation the ply
sicians decided to take desperate risk
and tell her of her husbands death,
reasoning that the shock might kill her,
but also might arouse her ebbing
strength and assist in checking the
coma which was already presaging dis
solution.
The experiment was tried, and when
the devoted mother learned that her
death would leave her children without
a protector, her mother love aroused her
last energies and she not only survived
the great shock Of her life partner S
death, but she actually recovered. -

Some time ago, for instance, young

her under ordinary treatment. But an
ingenious doctor placed her on a sheet
and sank her into warm bath, so that
only her head remained above water.
The bath was kept constantly warm,
and in it she ate, drank and slept for
1873 days and nights. At the end of the
time she stepped out fat and strong.
In skin diseases the continuous bath
is invaluable. for it can be indicated

No plan is more insanitary than to

these windows be kept free Of those
curtains of filth-cobwebs and dust.
Cows kept in sunless stables are
affected about the same way that plants
are in sunless rooms. They are sickly

It is in such stables that tuberculosis

the principles Of hygiene. Keep COWS
out of the gloom and in the sunshine if
you would have healthy, vigorous ami

It is for this reason that | earnestly
advocate tightly inclosed barnyards
acting as wind breaks, where cows may
sun themselves for short periods on
warm winter days.
The ordinary barnyard is refriger-
ator in winter and >cesspool in sum-

the stable is like stepping from the fry

Barnyards should be the warmest,

dairy premises In other words, they
should be blessing and net a curse.
If properly protected by wind break

can be turned out to their great ad-
vantage in the middle of nearly every

The ordinary plan of turning them

Parsnips For Cows.

There is no better root for cows than
the parsnip, says the Boston Cultivation
1t has the advantage that part of the
crop may if need be be wintered in the
ground where it has grown. The pars-
nip, unlike the beet. makes rich milk
1t is equal to the carrot in this respect
and undoubtedly, like that root, helps
to color winter made butter. Parsnips
are favorite winter feed of Jersey and
Guernsey farmers. who by its use have
been able to breed cows whose high but
ter color has become hereditary in these
breeds No doubt the parsnip feeding
is in part responsible for the color OF
Jersey butter
