ABOUT THOSE BIG WAVES.

One does not hear nowadays when
a steamer has an experience like that
of the Teutonic on he. last voyage
over quite so much talk about tidal

episodes a few years ago, but even
NOW there seems to be q very gen
eral misrepresentation as to what hap
pens in these cases, and q still more
general misapprehension as to why it
happens. In reality it is hardly more
exact to speak Of giant waves" than
of ''tidal waves" for. though the
waves in any given series differ ap-
preciably in size, the difference is
rarely if ever enough even to begin
to account for the damage that one
particular wave among the many
harmless ones often does.

due to the rushing forward of the

Peruna is a specific for all catarrhal

KNOCKED HIM DOWN.
A Political Discussion which Ended

In 1854, while colonel, Washington
was stationed at Alexandria when there
was an election for members of the as
sembly in which Mr.. w. Payne opposed
the candidate supported by Washing
ton. In the course of the contest, says
the Ladies' Home Journal, Washington
grew warm and said something often
sive to Mr.. Payne, who, at one blow, ex-
tended him on the ground. The mem
bers of Washington's regiment heard
that their colonel had been murdered
by the mob, and they were soon under
arms and in rapid motion to the town
to inflict punishment on the supposed
assassins. To their great JOY the col
oneI came out to meet them, thanking
them for such a proof of attachment.
but conjuring them by their love for
him and their duty to return peaceably
to their barracks. Feeling himself to
be the aggressor Washington resolved
to make honorable reparation. Early
next morning he wrote polite note to
Mr.. Payne requesting to see him at the
tavern. Payne repaired to the place
appointed in expectation of duel. On
his approach Washington rose to meet
him, and, smiling as he offered his
hand, began: "Mr. Payne, to err is ma
ture; to rectify error is glory. l be-
lieve was wrong yesterday; you have
already had some satisfaction, and if
YOU deem that sufficient here is my
hand-let us be friends" Mr.. Payne
was from that moment an enthusiastic
admirer of Washington.

place for it. Crowded. cities mean

increasing the market.
Judging from what has been done the

the rug business to-day is in an initial
movement, one that is likely to reach
great proportions with recurring years,
and that there are even those who be-

that it is an advance in household econ

He saw her come out, and followed,
unseen, as she hurried away. TWAS no
vulgar curiosity on his part. Wonder

him after the untiring little figure.
When she stopped at last in
small, dull street, more than an hours

stoop to fit her key into the door, open

he walked away, bordering and per-

Suddenly there was a tap at the door,
and the next minute couple of hands
were clapped on his shoulders, and he
was face to face with Gordon Hyde.

COMBATING DISEASE.
Why Disinfeetants Should BE Used
Literally and with Regularity
in Poultry Yards.

When roup has become established
on a farm the germs remain in the
soil for months, depending on the
kind of roup, however, as the term is
used to apply to consumption, diph-
liberia, scrofula, etc. The entire
premises should be disinfected two
or three times, drenching the house,
floors and roosts, grounds, etc, with
a mixture made of one pound of cop
peras and bluestone (sulphate of cop
perl, each dissolved in ten gallons of
hot water, then adding one pint OF
sulphuric acid. Kill all the birds and
get others that are known to be
healthy. The labor of handling sick
birds is too costly when the whole
flock is attacked. Prevention is bet
ter than cure. Diseases are not al
ways contagious. When some men,
Der of the flock seems to have an all
ment, and no others are affected 1T
may be safely ascribed to some
cause peculiar to the individual. For
instance, when one of the fowls
twists it's neck around, seems to
shake its head, cannot eat or Is help
less, 1t is difficult to arrive at a cor
rect knowledge of the cause. But 1t
may be rheumatism from dampness,
pressure of blood on the brain from
high feeding, or an injury. The only
remedy then is to keep the fowl quiet
on straw, and feed only once a day
on lean meat. If it does not soon re-
cover it will be of no value except for
the pot. Do not waste time with
birds that are always sick.-Farm
and Fireside.
