Laid Up for Sixteen Weeks.
St. Jacobs Oil and Vogeler's Cur
atIve Compound Cured Him.

II have been great sufferer from Rheu.
enatism for many years. I was laid up with
Rheumatic Fever for nine weeks in 1894, and
again for sixteen 10y weeks in 1896. I tried
many medicines saw advertised and others
was recommended; finally was induced
to take Vogeler's Curative Compound, which
did me more good than all other medicines
An fact, feel quite different man since
have been taking the Compound. All my
oeighbors and friends are quite surprised to
see me about and looking so well. I can
only say that VogAer's Curative Compound
taken internally and by using St. Jacobs Oil
outwardly acted like magic in my case. I
had been taking medicines for years without
obtaining benefit, but Vogeler's has practi-
cally cured me. I have recommended Vog-
eier's Curative Compound to a lot of nv
acquaintance, and they tell me that it has
worked wonders.
Wishing you every success in the sale of
your Vogeler's Curative Compound and st.
Jacobs Oil, Iremain, gentlemen,
"Your obedient servant,

= The SceDteP.

The scepter was the emblem Of pow
ar. Az the silver wand, 50 familiar in
~oathedrals. was once hollow, containing
the. ''virge," or rod with which ,chas-
tisement was inf1ict ed upon the choris-
ters and younger members Of the
foundation. SO the royal scepter repre-
scented the right to inflict punishment.
Hence the expression, Ito sway the
scepter," implied the holding of regal
dignity. The scepter with the dove
possessed the additional Specification of
the Holy Ghost, as controlling the ac-
lions Of the sovereign. The same idea
was conveyed by Rheims by the beauti-
ful ceremony of letting loose number
Of doves at the coronation Of the
French hngs.-Good Words.

CHURCH MONEY.

Some Odd Ways in Which Women
Earned 1t. .
The women folk OF the Methodist
church at Oxford recently set out to
earn money for certain church pur-
poses, and meeting was held at
which each woman or girl recited the
method by which she had earned her
contribution, says the Boston Journal
Some Of the recitals were funny
enough to convulse the audience, and
a few are epitomized as follows: Miss
Mary Dobbs started out to do some
janitor work, but got tired and sub
contracted the job, though saving for
herself q margin of profit. Mrs. NJ
Collins said that one day her husband
was tearing around the house hunting
for his overshoes and said he would
give al half a'dollar to know what had
had sold them to the ragman, and
demanded the half. Mrs. Bay kalso-
mined her own house and saved the
dollar which .an old colored man de-
manded for the Job. Miss Zulu Cole
engaged in . great variety of employ
ments. She got 5 cents for washing
Mrs. Middleton's dishes, 10 cents for
doing some. sewing for her sister, S
cents from her uncle for keeping her
mouth shut five minutes: 5 cents for
killing three cats. Is cents for sweep
ing the sidewalk; ii front OF two: stores,
and s. cents for popping some corn.
Miss LYDIA Mills made so cents by
mending the harness and making a
new halter for the COW. Miss Lettie

Enthusiasm Of Poultry Raising.

All of the worlds most successful
men succeeded because Of the enthusi-
asm. that they had in their particular
lines Of work. It is unnecessary, then.
to: say that a imam to succeed in poul-
try keeping must be enthusiastic.
When, a. man that has a big poultry
establishment finds his enthusiasm
waning or being diverted to some
other occupation it will probably be
found the part of wisdom to drop the
poultry business. A while ago. the
writer visited poultry establishment
where the owner had evidently had
his enthusiasm for the poultry bust
ness diverted into another channel. He
had another business, and that ap-
peared' to be thriving. His large poul-
try establishment, however, showed
every sign of neglect. The pens had
evidently not been cleaned out for a
month, and sick hens were apparent
here and there in the flocks. Bmthu.
siasm would never have tolerated. thai
condition of affairs.

Gen. Grosvenor had just been telling
O story. When he reached the climax
ne paused expectantly, but nobody
laughed. They locked at him in a re-
proaohful manner, and the general,
with some irritation, tartly explained
the point of the joke. They then laughed,
but It was an effort, and Serene Payne
said:
"Grosvenor, you are deterioratfng.

Poultry Points Picked Un


We have been asked if a cracked
egg can be used for Matching. That
will depend on several kinds IT cir
eumstances. If the crack is not too
large, it may be mended by pasting
over it a strip OF thin, tough paper.
The hen, II large and heavy, may
break it even then. If the hen be
light, or If an incubator be in use, the
egg may come through all right and
produce a chick.
| Poultry manure is a very concen-
trated fertilizer, and this should be
borne in mind when it is being ap-
| piled to the land. It should be saved
with care, as carelessness in that re-
spect may render it Of little value.
Mixing it with dry dust will destroy
its value unless certain amount of
| moisture be present. When kept In
barrels 1t is well to keep it little
moist, but not wet. When too dry
mischief is wrought by chemical &C.
ton, and when too wet, by bacterial
action.
It is a superstition that salt is poi
sonous to hens. A lady saw the wri-
ter sailing the warm mash for the
poultry and said, with surprise: "Why
do you put salt in. their food? l
thought salt always killed hens"
When salt is thrown out in the form
of rock crystals, fowls sometimes eat
them for grit and are killed thereby.
A man would be killed by salt also
If he ate it in proportionate quanti-
ties. The danger to hens from the
| presence OF salt crystals should re-
mind us that there. are many other
substances that II left around may
prove injurious. But poison must not
| be left where fowls can find it.. Bits
Of ,mire, tacks and even nails may
prove deadly. The writer once had a
| fowl suddenly go lame and killed her
\ The lameness was found to be caused
! by pieces Of wire exceeding an incl
| III length. These had worked from
the gizzard into the flesh Of the fowl
and one piece was il process Of work
ing out between the body and leg. 85s#Es
