they have kept all right for me. kind, if it is nothing more than a pit in the ground. Cover with poles, a few corn stalks, a little straw and six to eight inches of earth.
 "A ventilator four feet long and Tx7 inches outside measure should be extended through the roof near the center, projecting IS inches be- low the roof. It is made of four-inch board and is eight inches wide by four feet long. in the form of a loose box without ends. A square plunger should be made, of inch board, the same length as the ven tilator, using four-inch boards six inches wide by four feet long. Nail a board that just fits over the bot tom of the plunger and adjust over the top so that when the plunger is placed in the ventilator the board on top will prevent it's slipping into the cave. The plunger should be filled with sawdust and wrapped with a piece of old quilt or padding, so that when it is in the ventilator, the hole will be completely stopped and consequently frost proof. Put screw hook into the bottom of the plunger and on it hang reliable thermometers, so that you can go to the top of the cave. draw out the plunger and see what the tempera- ture is down below without having to open it. The outline of my cave is shown in the accompanying illus tration.
 "In order to keep the temperature uniform, throw snow all around the cave as soon as the soil is frozen hard, and cover it with straw or old hay. The snow will keep the cave warm in winter and cool late in spring. If nights are very cold. keep careful track of the temperature. and if it gets below 34 degrees pull out the plunger and hang lantern on the lower end, and the cave will warm up in little while. If a eel lar is used for storing potatoes or vegetables. large lamp will warm it up during extremely cold periods.
 "When spring comes I use ice to keep the temperature of the cave as low as possible. X galvanized box two feet square and IS inches deep, with a drain off into the ground will answer as the ice box. It noth ing better is at hand. use a washtub and throw a blanket over the ice l have kept seed potatoes in this way until June and they were as hard as when dug in the fall. Such seed will sprout more slowly and come up later than soft potatoes. but will be more vigorous and as rule will outyield the other kind"
 This plan has worked very we'll and can be recommended. Of course. as Mir. Fairehild intimates. every vege- table grower must work out the de tails of the plan himself. The sue- gestions are excellent. It is easily possible to construct a cave of this kind very cheaply and 10 keep fruits and vegetables very late in the sea son, If it is necessary to dig poto- toes, for example, early before cool weather comes, the use of ice in this way will keep them until wanted.- American Agrieulturist.

One of the new novels of exceptional merit, builded along historical lines, is .Lionel Ar don," by Malcolm Dearborn. Like many of the novels of the time it takes its name from that of the hero. The scene Is Eng land and the time that of Henry VIII, and through to Queen Elizabeth The hero, Lion el, is the son of Lord Ardon, who is killed in a duel with Lord Raven, and his death is quickly avenged by the young son. The story follows the entrance of the hero into English court life, and contains some bril- liant descriptions of the gayeties and festivi- ties of those times. One of the principal characters is Lady Jane Grey, who is, in fact the real heroine. This is the only moved that has ever brought to the sympathy and ad. miration of story readers that woman of purity and exquisite womanliness. Pub lished by C. W. Dillingham; Company, New York Price, Sl 50.

CHROMATIC REFLECTION.

 the Rainbow.

A Virginia reader sends story told by the late Alban <. Payne as an actual occur renee, says the Philadelphia Times, It con cerned a hard-riding, hard drinking young Englishman, who settled near Linden, that state, in the expressed hope that the rustic surroundings would prove an aid in ridding him of his abnormal thirst. But he chung to his old habits, and soon became d con noisseur in moonshine Installations, rather preferring them, after time, to those bear ing the government stamp. His face Was a mingled purple and sunset red, the joint product of whisky and an open-air life; and he had nothing of clarm apart from his faultless manners to offer the pretty noun tain girl who consented to become his wife. One afternoon he was carried home, pretty well unused up as the result of fall. The gravel of the roadside, the green of the grass and the smear from some cuts added to the colorfulness of his countenance; and the young wife, when Dr. Payne arrived, rushed out on the porch, screaming:
 "Oh, doctor doctor! go in to him-quiek! He has all the diseases of the ranbow!"

 O.:
 Dear Sirs-I have had occasion to use your Pe-ru-na medicine in my family for colds, and it proved te be an excel lent remedy. l have not had occasion to use it for other ailments
 Yours very truly, W. NJ. Lord.
 It will be noticed that the Governor says he has not had occasion to use Pe- ru-na for other ailments. The reason for this is, most other ailments begin with cold. Using Pe-ru-na to prompt ly cure colds, he protects his family against other ailments. Thisis exactly what every other family in the United States should do. Keep Pe-ru-na in the house. Use it for coughs. colds, la grippe, and other climatic affections of winter, and there will be no other ail- ments in the house. Such families should provide themselves with a copy of Dr. Hartman's free book. entitled "Winter Catarrh." Address Dr. Hart man, Columbus, Ohio.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Letters of eengratula- tion and commendation testifying to the merits of Pe-ru-na as q catarrh remedy are pouring in from every State in the Union. Dr. Hartma n is receiving hundreds of such letters daily. All classes write these letters, from the highest to the lowest.
 The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti- san, the clerk, the editor, the states man, the preacher-all agree that Pe- ru-na is the catarrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing ca- tarrh as their greatest enemy, are es- pecially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony.
 Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca- tarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only abso- lute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of it's victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures catarrh, but prevents. Every house. hold should be supplied with this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth.

Provisions opened strong on higher hogs

crowd then took the short side and the
closing was easy. Outside interests bought
heavily, but many of the local talent that
had done so much to keep prices higher
manifested considerable weakness and

NEW YORK, April There was an ad-

from Houston and New Orleans and the
big exports, amounting 10 no less than
i2,24S bales. as against port receipts Of
1886 bales Interiar receipts, too, were

Spot markets were firm: dry goods re-
ports were encouraging; no labor trouble
was reported at Fail River, and it is not
believed that there will be any trouble at
Augusta, Ga. worth mentioning.
Room traders sold last night and early
today, but took back their cotton mainly
owing to the big exports, which were
largely to the Continent.

Clifford Pinchot has been selected as
honorary chief of the department. of
forestry to cooperate with DR.. Tarleto
II. Bean, acting chief of the depart
ment. Mr.. Pinchot is chief of the
division Of forestry in the Department
of agriculture at Washington and is a
man who has done more, perhaps, than
all others to devise practical policy
for the preservation and extension Of
the forests of the this country. He is
a graduate Of Yale University and
subsequent to his graduation studied
fores sry in the best schools Of France
and Germany. Immediately upon his
retpsu to this country he was placed
in Charge of the BiItmore Estate in
Western North Carolina, where he
developed and applied for perhaps the
first time in America the practical
methods of managing large private
forests. He also formulated. the best
measures for securing and preserving
the large forest areas in the State of
New York.
He was appointed Chief of the Divi-
sion of Forestry in the Department of
Agriculture at Washington some half
dozen, years ago, and under his eff
cient management this division has
recently been organized into the Gov
ernment Forestry Bureau. He is a
warm personal friend Of President
Roosevelt.

Soil in South Africa has been received

at York, Pa. This is probably the
largest order ever sent out for this

where Briton and Boer we're lately

can people will take much greater
pleasure in sending plows to the Trans

the substitution. The resumption OF
