The Tower of Famine.

The Tore della Fame, or Tower of
Famine, was noted for its grewsome
history. 1t once stood in Pisa, Italy,
but there are now no traces of it.
Count Ugolino della Gherardscha, whom
Dante immortalized, was the head of
the Guelphs, and because of his tyran-
ny and accredited attempts to place
his country in bondage he was antag-
onized and finally conquered by the
chief of the Ghibellines, who imprison-
ed him, with his two SONS and two
grandsons, in this tower, the slow
method of starvation being employed
as the manner of their death. The
door of the tower was locked and the
keys thrown into the Arno.

Food for young children is an i'm
portant topic during summer. Well
cooked cereals are excellent, sterilIzed
milk invaluable. Neither vegetables
nor meats should be given to children
who are under year old. When the
infant is old enough to chew, Nature
furnishes teeth. Until then solid food
is dangerous. Nor should stimulating
drinks Or complicated foods like rich
desserts find place in child's diet
airy, any more than griddle cakes, rich
gravies and sauces, doughnuts, pork
and veal. Toast, stale bread and milk,
mealy baked potatoes, the mushes fla
vored with fruit Juices, simple GUS
tards and jellies, peas, beans, and
corn we'll cooked and with every hull
broken open, tapioca, ginger cakes,
and junket may be used. Children
beginning to eat meat should have it
first minced fine, then be fed slowly
and induced to chew it we'll. Nor
should they be permitted to swallow
quantities of ice cold milk or water
while eating. In fact,a proper atten-
ton to the kind of diet and the man
ner of partaking of food would reduce
the mortality of children and adults,
both during this month and the next,
by very large per cent. Veal ex-
cept in soup, is the worst possible
meat for the delicate; pork and ham
are it's first cousins.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications they cannot reach

one way to cure deafness and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inf1amed condition of the mucous lining
OF the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the infiamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

CRYSTAL LAKE.

In the picturesque village of Barton,
At its southern limit, there lies
Crystal Lake, at the foot of mountain
constant delight to our eyes.
The steamers are coming and going,
And all are on pleasure bent;
By moonlight the people are rowing,
Ger the water sweet music is sent.
Hanging over it's crystal waters.
Are rocks and evergreen trees;
Where the village sons and daughters,
Find many nook for ease.
Ger its smooth, icy surface in winter,
The merry skaters voice rings.
The ice-cutter braves the cold bitter,
And softly whistles or sings.
Far up the lake is a camp-ground,
It's situation is fine;
Under the trees can now be found
Such lovely places to dine.
The boats are continually running,
To and from the village each day.
In fishing and feasting and hunting,
The hours pass swiftly away.
Each year adds much to the pleasure
Of this little camping ground;
And all who have hours of leisure,
Are often there to be found.

Some Queer Definitions.

Bailey's Universal chronological Die
tionary, with the subtitle, can Inter

them incredibly so. Here are speci-

not deaf
Lightning.-A meteor.
A Rainbow.-A meteor of divers
colors.

which is said to cure wound by being

The Place of the Duel.

Mrs. Minnie Walter Myers, in her
Romance and Realism of the South
ern Gulf Coast" gives an account Of
one of the last challenges to a duel
which occurred in Louisiana. The af-
fair was between NJ. Marigny, who be-
longed to one of the oldest families Of
Louisiana, and a Mr.. Humble, a sturdy
ex-blacksmith of Georgia, who had be-
come a man of political consequence.
NJ. Marigny took offense at some re-
marks of the Georgian and sent him a
challenge The big ex- blacksmith was
nonplused.
81 know nothing about this dueling
business" he said. II will not fight
him.
you must" said his friend. mo
gentleman can refuse"
II am not a gentleman" replied the
honest son of Georgia. 81 am only a
blacksmith"
''But you will be ruined if you do not
fight" urged his friends. "You will
have the choice of weapons, and you
can choose so as to give yourself an
equal chance with your adversary"
The giant asked time in which to
consider the question and ended by ac-
cepting He sent the following reply
to NJ. Marigny:
Il accept, and in the exercise of my
privilege, I stipulate that the duel shall
take place in Lake Pontchartrain, in
six feet of water, sledge hammers to
be used as weapons"
M. Marigny was about five feet, eight
inches in height, and his adversary
was seven feet. The conceit Of the
Georgian so pleased NJ. Marigny, who
could appreciate a joke as well as per-
petrate one, that he declared himself
satisfied, and the duel did not take
place

Paderewskf the Deceiver.

This is how a Kansas newspaper
man criticised Paderewski:
1--WE heard the Polander Paderewski
play the piano in Convention hall, Kan
sas City. The fellow is deceitful. He
makes you think all the time he is GO
ing to play a tune, but he never does.
He fiirts all around a tune, but never
touches it. His hair looks like a wig,
but it isn't. He deceives you in a hun
dred ways. He makes the sweetest
sounds you ever heard that were not a
tune. He has his piano so trained that
the doggone thing will keep right on
playing when he is not touching 1t.
He reaches out slowly and strokes it,
drawing back his elbows like a man
brushing a girls hair. You see the
moonlight, and you're there with your
girl, but somehow she doesn't love you.
You know the sorrow of that, and
that's why we don't like Paderewski.
We wouldn't go to hear him again, but
we wouldn't take 500 for what we
heard at Convention hall"

SHOULD CORN BE GROWN?

AS has been stated in "The Feeders
Corner" during the last six months,
there is as yet no definite information
on the proper grinding of feed for
fattening cattle. The writer has been
experimenting for five years past to
test the merits of ground corn for
fattening hogs. 1t is expected these
experiments will be continued at least
five years more in the endeavor to
settle this one simple proposition.
Perhaps some of our experiment sta
tions will be willing to take up other
formes of the problem, but as yet
nothing apparently has been ac-
complished. Without being able to
cite anything definite the writer be-
lieves that generally it is not neces-
sary or perhaps even advisable to
grind grain to very fine meal for
fattening animals. Nature resents
rule, and it is well to let the digestive
tract have its full allowance of work
to perform, for no doubt it will then
do better under such conditions than
if more assistance is rendered. 1t
seems possible that when the expert
ments have been conducted they will
show that an ear of corn crushed
reasonably fine will prove about as
satisfactory as any other form of re-
duction for that grain. More es-
pecially does this seem to be the case
where corn is fed as the sole concen-
trate. We can hardly believe that
shelled corn reduced to fine meal is
a particularly satisfactory feed for
fattening animals. If possible, some
ground oats or bran should be mixed
with such material. not only to tighten
it but to afford variety and give bulk.

BOUSERcLD HELPS.

IF cellar has damp smell, and
cannot be thoroughly ventilated, a
few trays of charcoal set on the floor,
shelves, and lodges will make the air
pure and sweet.
Egg shells are the best things to clean
bottles, vinegar cruets, etc. Crush
the shells fine, partly fill the bottles
with them, pour in hot soap suds,
shake we'll, ami rinse.
Oil cloths should never have soap
used when washing them, as the I've
will destroy the colors aud finish.
They are greatly benefited and last
much longer if a thin coat of varnish
is applied once a year.
A box of powdered borax should
always be kept on the sink shelf. A
little added to the water in which the
dish towels are washed will help
much to keep them clean, and at the
same time keep ones hands soft and
smooth.
Silk must never be ironed, as the
heat takes all the life out of it and
makes it seem stringy and f1abby. If,
however, you wish to press out old
bits of silk and ribbon for fancy work,
an iron only moderately hot, and
place two thicknesses of paper be-
tween that and the silk.
A favorite as we'll as nourishing
drink for invalids is barley water To
prepare it place one quart of water
in saucepan over the fire Wash
well two ounces of pearl barley and
throw into the water. Bring it to
boiling point, then add lemon and
sugar to suit the taste. Draw the
pan to the back of the fire and sim
mer gently two hours. Strain and
cover until cold.
A bottle of good gliding is very
useful article when spring house
cleaning discloses wear or breaks in
gilded pieces of furniture. Old
frames are easily renovated; tracings
on brackets may be renewed by put
ting on gliding with a fine pointed
brush, the furnished chains of hang
ing lamps or plant stands be made as
bright as when new, or vases be i'm
proved at only small cost and very
little trouble.
To brighten and freshen carpets
sprinkle them with tea leaves or wet
papers and sweep thoroughly but
lightly. Grease spots may be drawn
out by covering the places with coarse
brown or butchers paper and then
passing over them warm] fatiron.
Put little OK gall in a pan of warm
water and with a fresh cloth wrung
quite dry again go over the carpet.
To prevent moths under carpets use
coarsely ground black pepper mixed
with camphor, and strew thickly
about the edges or wherever the
moths are to be found.-Good House
