KILLING WEEDS.

The best way to kill weeds is to dig
them up with the hoe. In the case of
quack grass it is safe also to put the
weed in blazing fire after it is dug
up.
A good many men have worried
their heads over the invention of a
chemical weed killer. If one could
take some agreeable medicine for
weeds as he does for ague or that
spring feeling it would be a great re-
lief from hoeing and blowing.
The botanist of the Vermont exper-
iment station, who is an expert in
such matters, says this sort of medi-
cine will work in some cases. Gravel
walks, drives and tennis courts, for
instance, can be kept free from weeds
| by the use of certain chemicals.
Compounds containing arsenic seem
to be far superior to other chemicals.
The trials made at the Vermont sta
ton have included salt, copper sui
phate, potassium sulphid, kerosene,
carbolic acid, sulphuric acid.
The arsenical compounds tested
were as follows, named in the order
of their merit: Henderson's fluid
destroyer, arseniate of soda, Smiths
weed killer, arsenic sal-soda mixture.
In choosing between these, cost, con-
venience and effectiveness are to be
considered. The cost is as follows,
using eight gallons to the square rod:
Henderson's weed destroyer, 40 cents
to the square rod; arseniate of soda,
cost II cents square rod; arsenic
sal-soda mixture, cents a square
rod.
The arsepiate of soda seems to be
best for general use, especially when
the expense is considered. For kill
ing weeds in lawns or similar places
where it is desired that useful plants
shall occupy the treated soil as soon
as possible thereafter, crude carbolic
acid is the most generally useful
chemical, since it is prompt in it's ac-
ton, and does not permanently poison
the soil. Sulphuric acid comes next,
but it is less penetrating. It's only
advantage as compared with carbolic
acid is that it is not malodorous.
Common salt is inferior to any of the
above chemicals for miscellaneous
weed killing.

Cooking Meat.
Henry Van Dyke,

All meats are practically baked the
same. In beef, as first choice select
the standing ribs and pin or aitch bone
next the chuck ribs. Sirloin roast is,
OF course very nice, but it is expensive;
sirloin is best for broiling. Put the
meat into baking-pan, resting 1t on
the bone side. Dust it lightly with
pepper. Dissolve a teaspoonful of
salt in half a pint of boiling water;
turn it into the bottom of the pan and
place the meat in a very hot oven,
about 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The
Fat side will be up and as soon as it
BONES in contact with the heat will
begin to melt and the water will evap-
brate. After the meat is thoroughly
Ieared on the outside begin to baste.it
With the fat "dripping" that is now
a the bottom of the pan. Do not use
Vater, and do not sprinkle salt over
he meat. 1t draws out the juices and
ardens the meat. Reduce the heat
the oven to 260 degrees Fahrenheit
nd finish, cooking fifteen minutes to
ach pound of beef, basting every ten
hinutes. II the heat of the oven is
4 OF even the meat may be turned; 1t
much better, however, IL baked in
ne position.
In cooking meat in water we use the
|rm ''boiling," although to have the
eat in perfection 1t must never be
biled after the outside juices are fully
mented. Select the bolar piece or
'und, or the tough end of the rump.
1t the meat into kettle OF actually
biling water and boil for five minutes;
en- push 1t on the back part of the
pve where it will simmer for twenty
nutes to each pound of meat. The
nmering point is $50 degrees Fab
nheit. In this way the meat will be
nder and Juicy. Salt, pepper, and
her seasoning may be added after
first hour.-Lddies' Home Journal.

HOUSEHOLD.
Life.

Life.
Let me but live my life from year to year,
With forward face and unreluctant soul,
Not fastening to, nor turning from, the
goal;
Not mourning for the things that disappear
In the dim past, nor holding back in fear
From what the future wells; but with a
whole
And happy heart, that pays its toll
To youth and age, and travel on with cheer.
So let the way wind up the hill or down,
Through rough or smooth, the journey
will be joy;
Still seeking what sought when but a
boy,
New friendship, high adventure and a
crown,
I shall grow old, but never lose lies zest,
Because the roads last turn will be the
best.

LETTER TO CHAs. J. UFFoRp,
BARTON, VT.

Dear Sir: ii. M. Hooker q Co., Cooperstown,
N. Y, have sold Devoe paint for AZ years. D.
T. McGown, of that firm, built house in 's6
and painted Devoe, OF course. The paint last
ed ten years.
year or two later neighbor built house
and painted it lead and oil. The neighbor's
house was reprinted twice in the same time
This looks as il the neighbours house was
painted three times in eight or nine years
and McGown's once in ten years. We are not
quite sure-we tell the tale as it comes to us
1t 10 enough to say that Devoe lead add zinc

RUSSELL SAGE'S ADVICE.

Russell Sage, or "Uncle Russell,n as
he is Familiarity called, is the oldest
business man in New York. He was
Sc years old the other day, but he is
still hale and hearty, and he does
work that would make many a
younger man quail. Since he reached
the age of IL he has been constantly
at work, yet he looks 20 years younger
than he is.
Mr.. Sage is millionaire. He made
his money by hard work and close
attention to the turns of the market,
and he is one of those who do not be-
lieve that it does much good to give
people money. He therefore has the
reputation of being "close," and
many jokes are saddled on him which
carry out that trait-most of which
probably are not true.
He recently said that he left his
family to spend money, as for him, he
liked better to make money. 81 en-
joy working" he went on. "Some
people enjoy loating, but I've always
been the other way"
In venturing some advice to young
men he observed: sAlways pay at
tention to business. Be on the look
out for opportunities. Every man
must make mistakes, There's no way
of avoiding them; but the man who
succeeds is the man who sees the
blunder he has made and jumps in and
remedies it. don't believe in hard
and fast rules for success. You can't
say to young man this is the thing
to do, or that is the thing to do. A
fellow who sits down and waits for
somebody to come along and tell him
how to do it is going to get left. The
chap who gets out and hustles, makes
mistakes and hustles to rectify them;
studies the way other men have sue
ceeded, and then, after he's done all
this, Sits it down and goes ahead in
his own original way, is the one who
will win. A young mans chances are
better now, on the average, than they
were when I was young, because he
has as guide and warning the ex-
perience of Others"

GOVERNOR WOOD IN DISFAVoR.

General Wood, military governor of Cuba, has incurred the President $ displeasure and will be censured by the secretary of war. General Wood a few days ago wrote circular letter to senators urging tariff concessions to Cuba. This, in the opinion of the secretary of war, is a breach of mili- tary discipline. Several members of the senate have taken offense at the action and as the house was entirely ignored, some of the republican lead CTS are indignant.
 Much capital has been made by the democrats by the alleged interference of the military authorities in the leg islation before congress. The Presi- dents criticism is because of the un- military course in personally attempt ing to influence legislation and in ig- noring members of the house. At this particular time the President has the republican members of the ways and means committee on his hands and is trying to make it easy for them to follow the administration in giv- ing giving Cuba relief from a burdensome tariff. General Wood has added to the complications. The Presidents action has added signifi- canoe because of the well known per sonal relations between him and Gen. eral Wood. General Wood was the colonel of the Rough Rider" regi- ment when MT. Roosevelt was the lieutenant-colonel.

ther away from her and presently when she sank down exhausted in a swamp the light disappeared altogether.
 Whatever truth there may be in the story, it forcibly illustrates the career of many a woman who has followed the marsh fire of love in the belief that it led to home and comfort and found herself at last exhausted and deceived.
 IT'S BITTER LESSON
 learned by many woman who thought love all-suffcient, that love alone cannot be the foundation oi the home. It needs health. Strange as 1t may seem the beautiful loving woman who is weak may lose the love of the husband for whom she broke all home ties, while on the other hand a woman who has no greater dover than robust health may win and hold the love of her husband past all possibility of loss. The first re- quisite of marriage is health. The wife's first necessity is health. Health must be the mothers or she will know no happiness in her children. What makes ill-health so common among womens Why do they suffer with headache, back ache and pains past description? These sufferings are in general caused by dis ease of the delicate worlanly organs, and they are in general curable by the use of Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription.

Tombstone Railroad.

The first start in the grading work of the Tombstone branch of the Fl Paso and Southwestern from College Peak to Fairbank will begin this week. Surveyor J. B. Wilson, who is in charge of the party of surveyors in the field has been authorized to arrange for some of the grading ne- cessary at Fairbank and College Peak also near the Cowan ranch and just below Tombstone. Some fifteen or twenty teams will be put at work on the preliminary plan and teams have been engaged from Al Moves and James Herrick of Fairbank. Mir. Wilson left today for Gleeson where several teams and graders will be put to work and like number employed at the College Peak end. What fur ther plans the railroad company pro pose have not yet been made public, but it is believed this preliminary work will be followed by the award ing of grading contracts and work on the line pushed forward to compile ton. Some final survey work is also necessary and will be finished by the survey party in the field. Character istic of the policy of the company, but little information is given out for the public at headquarters of their plans or intentions, but evidence of work undertaken hereabouts is en- couraging indications of the inten- tions of the builders and inspires new hope of the early completion of the much desired road.-Prospector.
