Money Not the Only ThInr

Money is not the only thing that is
worth saving in this world, nor is it
the best thing. If both men and
women would onl Y realize this before
it is too late. But the knowledge is
always tardy in it's arrival; they have
gained the one thing at the expense
of another quite as valuable, and with
the price which they have paid they
have lost the capacity of enjoying
what they have gained. A little stop
ping once in awhile to think and to
take account of ones mental. physic-
al and nerve stock will very soon set
things to rights especially if the
women will be sensible. think in the
right directions, and be governed by
those thoughts when. they have fully
formulated them; and, above all, if
they will dare to be independent Of
the opinions of other women, who,
like themselves, are held down by
tradition, and do the right and sensi-

YOUNG DAIRY MOTHERS.
Why They Should Be Carefully
Nursel and Petted and Fed Up to
Their Full Capacity.

The practice on the Brown Bessie
farm is to have heifers drop the first
calf at about two years of age, says
II. C. Taylor, in Rural New Yorker. II
the heifer is we'll grown and indicates
early maturity, month, or even two
months, earlier would do no harm. A
Jersey or Guernsey comes to maturity
earlier than the beef breeds do, and
should be bred nearly year younger.
1t is certainly much better for the
dairy breed heifer to begin her life
work as soon as the age of two years.
II she is we'll grown as she should be
at two years, she is all right to begin
business. If allowed to go another
year, she will be liable to become quite
fat, and her dairy tendencies will be
diverted toward the production of
beef. I am of the opinion that heifer
will develop into a better cow at ma
turity by coming to the pail at two
years of age. If heifer should be two
years old any time from December IS
to January 30, and was well grown, I
would breed her to freshen the early
part of November previously. This in
Wisconsin would bring her to milk be-
fore very cold weather, and she would
do much better than to freshen in VIM
ter wea Their. Again, if she was to be
two years old in February or March, I
would carry her over until the warm
weather of spring, which would bring
her to &c months old. The very best
time for The Eeifer to do justice to her.
self is to bring forth her first calf from
May Is to July /. The very hot wealth.

against her. She weighed about 100
pounds when she was in good health.
When she commenced with our family
physician in April, 1898, she weighed
about $50, but kept going down all the
time. She went to Atlanta, Ga, and
took treatment, but it did her no good.
Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ga,
and took treatment from the best
physician there for three months.
She kept going down under his treat
ment, although he was considered the
best physician in the county. She
went down from 1870 pounds to 6S, and
we saw she could not live long. She
was a skeleton. We consulted an old
physician who told her to use .Peruna.
She gradually improved and got
stronger. She has gained 80 pounds
since she has taken Peruna, and is
gaining every day, and does her own
housework.
'She was well known when she was
so low, and now everybody wants to
know what cured her She had in
digestion and catarrh of the stomach.
1t is as good for children as for grown
people. We haven't had to have doc
tor for one Of our children since 1885,"
w. A. Mitchell.
IF you do not derive prompt and sat-

Peruna, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving full statement of your case

valuable advice gratis.

SPREAD BY ANIMALS.
diseases That Arc Common to Men
and Horses and Cows Commu-
nicated by the Latter

The subject of the relationship be-
tween the diseases to which man is
liable and those from which animals
suffer is very interesting and impor-
tant, and will well repay the study
now being given to it by physicians
and veterinary surgeons. These dis
eases, says Youths Companion, may
be divided into three classes-those
equally affecting both man and ami
mails, those special to man, but which
may also be caught by animals, and
those belonging to animals, but
which may attack man if he comes
IN close contact with the sick ami
NAL.
Ut those equally affecting both man
and animals the best known is tuber-
culosis. Some physicians insist that
the tuberculosis of cows is not the
same as that of human beings, but
most are of the opinion that the diff
ferences between the two diseases are
only such as might be expected to ex-
ist in view of the vital differences be-
tween the two classes of beings.
Another disease common to men
and some animals is smallpox. In
this case there seems to be more diff
ference between the disease in man
smallpox, and that in animals
cowpox and horsepox. Yet that the
two affections are closely related is
shown by the protection against
smallpox that is afforded us by inoc-
ulatlon with cowpoN, or vaccination.
Diphtheria and scarlet fever are
shared with US by various animals.
and it has been asserted by certain
English physicians that these diseases
may be conveyed to children in the
milk from sick cows. However this
may be, there is little doubt that cats,
rabbits and perhaps other domestic
animals. can acquire diphtheria from
sick children. and can in turn trans
NIT it to healthy children.
The plague is disease common to
man, monkeys and rodents, and is so
equally shared by them that no one
knows whether it was primarily hu.
man disease OF a rat pest.
Among the diseases belonging es-
pecially to animals, but which may
also be contracted by men, are hydro
phobia, anthrax or malignant pustule,
CHAMBERS and foot-and-mouth disease.
Some of the parasitic skin diseases
are also transmissible from men to
animals, and the reverse. A very
common example of this is ringworm,
which is not infrequently introduced
among the children of family by
| the cat.

Renlantfnn an Old Orchard

It is probable that the land on
which an old apple orchard stood is
not very rich, and has been in sod
for long time. 1t would almost
certainly be we'll to, have the soil
thoroughly plowed and cultivated in
some such crop as potatoes for a
year before planting to orchard
again. OF course fertilizers should
be applied. Stable manure is very
good, and =, so are such commercial

MAKING A HoTBED.

starting cabbage, celery, lettuce, ETC.,
in early spring:
The ordinary hotbed consists of a
pile of fermenting stable manure, COW
cred with frame and glazed sashes, in
which is a layer of fertile soil. The
bed should be located where it will be
easy of access, but it should be on dry
ground and not where water could flow
over the ground and about it's base,
even in wet weather. It should also

The kiss That VIII Never Return


1t was a pitiful mistake, an error
sad and grim; waited for the rail-

dim. 1t came at last, and from the
oar there stepped dainty dame; and,
looking up and down the place, she
straight unto me came. ''Oh, Jack!"
she cried. ooh, dear old Jack!" and
kissed me as she spake. Then looked
again and,5 frightened, cried: ooh,
what bad mistaken" I said: ''For-
give me, maiden fair, for I am not your

gave, I'll straightway give it back!'''
