There is nothing that will keep the
feet in better condition than lemons,

"My feet, from long continued stand
ing, had become covered with corns and
callouses. Not only my toes, but the
bottoms of my feet were so tender
l could not stand upon them without
pain. tried every remedy suggested,
but without relief. One day, lemon
juice was spoken of as being worth Q
trial. Lemon juice is good for the
hands and face, why not for the feet,
thought. So purchased lemon, and
explicitly followed directions.
81 cut it in halves and gave my feet
lemon bath, rubbing the pieces thor.
oughly over every callous and corn.
repeated this treatment every night
for several weeks. The roughness be.
gan slowly, but surely, to disappear,
My feet are now as fair and smooth as
my hands, and my corns and callouses
are ills of the past. Lemon juice eff.
fects a complete cure.
"The treatment is very inexpensive,
as the halves of the lemon placed to,
gether, when not in use, will last a
long time. Ladies' World, New York.

ovERFURNISHED HOMES.

more simplicity in our homes
would make our lives simpler" writes
Edward Box, in a plea for the eXer-
else of better taste in furnishing our
homes, in the Ladies' Home Journal.
"Many women would live fuller lives
because they would have more time.
AS it is. hundreds of women of all
positions in life are to-day the slaves
of their homes and what they have
crowded into them. Comfort is essen
tial TO our happiness. But with COM
fort we should stop. Then we are on

the danger line when we go beyond
Not one-tenth. of the things that we
think are essential TO our happiest liv.
ing are really so. In fact. we should
be an infinitely happier and healthier
people if the nine-tenths were taken
out of our lives. 1t is astonishing
how much we can do without, and be
thousand times the better for it.
And it doesn't require much to test
this gospel of wisdom. We need only
to be natural; TO get back to our real,
inner selves. Then we are simple. II
is only because we have got away
from the simple and the natural that
so many of our homes are cluttered
up as they are, and our lives full of lit.
tie things that are not worth the
while. We have bent the knee to
show, to display, and we have lowered
ourselves in doing it; surrounded our.

have pushed the real, the natural, the

AN OBJECT LESSON ROAD.

Of 100000 tons of crushed trap rock an
nually. Much of this material has been
given to the counties as the states con-
tribution toward the improvement of
the leading thoroughfares.
North Carolina, Delaware, Iowa, New
York, Tennessee and other states also
have laws providing for the use of con-
vict labor in improving highways.
North Carolina has made great prog
ress and has built more miles of roads
under this system than any other state.
Thus one might, if space permitted, go
through the whole list of states and
find evidences of great progress in
road improvement. Gov. Mount, of In
diana, for instance, says that his COM
monwealth is provided with $4,000
miles of graded, graveled and piked
highways, over 5000 miles of which are
comparable with the best roads of
France. The pubic is now more thor
oughly aroused to the Importance of
the movement for better roads than
ever before, and more roads and better
roads have been built in the United
States in 1899 than in any previous year
in its history.
The agitation which has become so
universal will surely result in we'll de-
fined pubic sentiment that will soon
overcome all obstacles. With the new
century the good roads movement is
likely TO receive valuable aid from the
owners of horseless vehicles already
not uncommon on our thoroughfares.
The aid of these new allies added to
that of the farmer with his pecuniary
interest in the question, to say nothing
of the army of wheelmen already enlist
ed in the cause, promises well for rap
i'd spread of the movement throughout
the country.-Cincinnati Commercial

ABANDONED FARMS.
They Are n Sad Commentary on the
ignorance or CnrelessnesH OF
Their Owners.

Every once in awhile we notice re-
on so-called abandoned farms. Often
the returns from the land are quite
phenomenal. The explanation is that
some man with both brains and money
has taken hold and put into practice
business methods. Fad these been
put into operation from the first there
would have been no abandoned farms.
Men that have investigated the condi-
tions in localities where such lands
have been thrown out of cultivation
have found that the lands had become
run down through constant cropping
without putting back the manure
necessary to keep up the fertility.
What is true of the east is equally
true of the west, and unless the meth
DDS on some of our farms change the
time is coming when the farms will
cease to give living. There are two
unfortunate classes of men that try to
run farms; those that have money and
no brains for agricultural enterprises,
and those that have brains and no
money. The latter class is, however,
of the two the more likely to succeed.
In these days of agricultural colleges,
experiment stations and abundant op-
portunities there is no reason why the
man that has money cannot obtain
the necessary brain development to
help make success of farming

CONVICT ROAD BUILDERS.
Employed with Considerable Succea
by California and Several other
CommonwcnIths.

The legislature and people OF Cali
fornia have not been idle in the work
for good roads nor blind to the needs
of the state in this respect. Up to few
years ago some of the convicts had
been supported in comparative idleness
at the expense of the state, while 9TH
ers had been utilized in direct compe-
tition with free labor. In 1895 the leg
islature decided at the suggestion of
Gen. Roy Stone to utilize convict labor
in preparing road materials. A bill
was passed providing for highway
commission and for the construction
OF a rock-crushing plant on one of the
state prison grounds. Since that time
the convicts have been turning upward

HOUSEHOLD ACCIDENTS.
How to Treat Slight Cuts and
Scratches and Reduce Pain Result
Ing from Burns.

There are some accidents which are
almost unavailable in the hurry nee
essary in housework. Burns and cuts
which are trivial in themselves, but if
unattended to may lead to serious re-
suits, are familiar occurrence in the
kitchen. Slight cuts may be serious
If they are not purified by dipping in
some antiseptic preparation. The
best and safest to use in the house
IS two per cent. solution of car
bolic acid. 1t is not in the least dan
geItous, as it is diluted, but it should
be kept with the other medicines in a
cabinet or a high shelf of closet. All
that is necessary is to pour a little of
the solution over the wound or dip
1t in and then wrap it up with clean
cloths. The wound will heal much
more rapidly than if it We're exposed
to air and the danger of disease germs,
A scratch from cat or some other
trivial wound, which child or grown
person may receive, should be cauter-
ized mildly by winding cloth dipped
in ammonia around it, or by the use
of the carbolic solution.
The best remedy for a burn is sweet
oil and lime water, but If this is not
at hand use a paste of baking soda
and water or of -four and water
which may be applied more quickly

Four men lay dead on the ground

Eagle Feather, gcsping, was laid in

AN INDIAN ROMANCE.
-Four Braves Killed In Fighting for
the Hand OF Mocking Bird,
Seminole Belle.

The annual sun dance of the Florida
Seminoles is over. Mocking-Bird,
daughter of the chief of the little band
at Turtle Mound, is dead Four braves
of the depleted tribe lie buried in the
same stretches of hot sand. Love and
death have played out their little
drama in the everglades, and the hut of
the chief and the tepees of his people
are in mourning.
Mocking-Bird, II year old, was the
belle of the ,Nribe. 1t was no fault
of hers that her fathers young men
looked on her with eyes of love. II
was no fault of hers that she hesitated
In the choice of husband.
And with this hesitation the hopes
of her suitors grew.
Four young men, by common agree
ment, were considered to have found
equal favor in her eyes. She smiled
upon them all with impartiality. 1t
was this manifesto of impartiality, in
deed, that awoke the raging jealous
les of the lovers. AS time went on
these ragings grew, until the time of
the sun dance grew near. At this fes-
tival season it was thought that Mock
ing-Bird would make her choice, and
only the hopes that had come of her
impartial favors made each young
brave believe in his own foreordina-
tion to happiness.
But only one might be chosen, and
when out of the mazes of the sun
dance MockingBird dropped her eyes
to the amorous glance OF Eagle Feath-
er, while the red blood rose surging to

A hired man who has been working
out" for several years on Illinois farms
at SIG and $40 per month writes COM
plainingly of the long hours which he
is compelled to spend in the field in

He says that he has been going to
work so early and staying in the field
so late that he never has seen his em-
ployer's house in daylight and that on
one occasion he met himself going back
into the field. Which is just little
extravagant, but not far from the
truth. The farmland may some day
