POULTRY POINTERS.

The best eggs are the result of a
meat diet.
Weak legs come from forced growth.
high feeding and close confinement.
Use no deformed or weak fowls for
breeding and do not keep the same
cock more than one season.
A molting hen seldom lays. She can
not be supplying eggs while the strain
of growing new feathers is upon her
A very fat hen seldom lays anything
but soft shelled eggs. Apoplexy and
egg bound are the result of excessive
fat.
Leaves and hay chaff make excellent
litter for the floors, and by throwing
grain among it fowls are often kept
busy scratching.
Keep the fowls away from the barns,
stables and carriage houses. In such
places they are nuisances; besides they
are more comfortable in a place by
themselves.
Hens must have carbonate and phos.
phate of lime for their shells. and these
will be found in old plastering. broken
oyster shells and bones, with some OF
the meat and gristle attached

A Persian Dinner.

A traveller in Persia thus describes
dinner served in the household OF a
wealthy Persian: ''The chief dish con-
sists of fowl boiled to rags. surround
ed by a toothsome mass of rice. hard
boiled eggs, fried onions, almonds and
raisins. There Is a Shiraz wine, clear,
golden red liquid that has Travelled
over the mountain passes on mulebaSS
in a huge glass carboy. Among the
dessert mamma has conspicuous place.
This delicacy is somewhat akin to
nougat; it is studded with walnuts and
almonds and is jaw sticking to the
last degree. Like the mango, 1t Is best
eaten in private. for it renders the mas
ticator speechless. 1t is made OF gum
that exudes from a tree and is said 10
be engendered by worm. ."-Chicago

1T Was a Monkey.

I was invited, along with other Euro
peans on the beach, to one of the big
gest plays that have been seen in Opo-
DO. At the feast all kinds of fish, fowl
and soup, cooked after the native fash
ion, were served. Every one thoroughly
enjoyed the feast until, near to the fin
ish, the chaser dessert was brought in.
This dish they called palm oil chop.
While it was being served there rolled
out of the vessel what to all appear
ance was a human skull. Suddenly all
the Europeans turned pale, as though
suffering from an acute attack Of sea-
sickness, and the symptoms they de-
veloped were identical, for that dinner
would not stay down.
The chief, in alarm, inquired wha:
had made his friends so i'll. One of the
sufferers, whose eyes protruded from
their sockets, and afraid to trust him
self to speak, placed his handkerchief
to his mouth and jerked his thumb in
the direction of the skull.
The chief grasped the situation and
with unaffected concern tried to com
fort his sick guests by saying: 'It be
all right He be no man. He be mon
key!"-Chambers' Journal.

DON'T GET MORBID.
7k Is Not Difficult Matter to- Thimh
Yourself to Death.


Thousands of people actually think
themselves TO death every year by el
lowing their minds to dwell on morbid
subjects,
AS a rule, the thought that kills re-
lates to something the individual
breads more than anything else in the
world There is the germ of fatal
thought in ninety nine persons in every
hundred, and the exception is only
proof against the thought disease by
having been inoculated with the lymph
OF optimism or philosophy.
The idea that one has some incipient
disease in ones system, the thought of
financial ruin, that one is getting on in
life without improving prospects-any
of them or thousand similar
thoughts may carry a healthy man to
a premature grave. 4 melancholy
thought that fixes itself upon ones
mind needs as much ''dOctoring" as
physical disease. 1t needs to be eradi-
Gated from the mind or it will have
Just the same result as a neglected
disease would have. The thought dis
ease sometimes cures itself after run
ming its course; so does smallpox. But
who would settle down to suffer from
smallpox and chance recovery, as thou
sands of foolish persons settle down to
let the thought disease. which has at
tackled them, do it's worst?
Every melancholy thought, every
morbid notion and every nagging wor-
ry should be resisted to the utmost.
and the patient should be physicked by
| cheerful thoughts, of which there is a
| store in every ones possession. bright
ompanions-cheaper than drugs aud
| pleasanter.
| There have occurred scores of dozens
Of cases where healthy persons have
thought themselves into having tumors
and cancers--cases which admit of no
doubt whatever that the diseases re.
suited from constant morbid fear
There might possibly be fewer cases
| of cancer If some great doctors could
assure the world that it is not a hered-
itary disease, but morbid minded per.
sons on hearing that there is cancer il
their families generally do the very
worst thing they can do under the cir
cumstances they conceive an awfu
dread that they will be afflicted with
it. They dwell upon the fear constantly
and every trifling ailment which trou
bles them is at first mistaken for the
! premonitory symptoms of cancer.
The morbid condition of mind pro
duces a morbid condition of body, an(
if the disease does happen to be in thu
system it receives every encourage
ment to develop

An Expressive Postscript.

A curious postscript was once added
to a letter by General Israel Putnam.
A spy named Palmer. sent by Sir Hen
ry Clinton, the British commander, had
been detected furtively collecting infor'
nation of the force and condition of the
post at Peekskill and had undergone a
military trial. A vessel of war came up
the Hudson in all haste and landed a
flag of truce at Verplanck's point, by
which message was transmitted to
Putnam from Clinton claiming the said
Palmer as a lieutenant in the British
service. Putnam replied:
Headquarters. Aug. Z. 1777.
Edward Palmer, an officer in the ene-
my's service, was taken as a spy lurking
within our lines. He has been tried as a
spy and shall be executed as spy, and
the flag is ordered to depart Immediately.

A STORY OF BROWNING.
fhe Poet Was just as Well as GeM~
eroua with His Servant.

On a certain day Browning met one
of his servants whose joy it was to
wait upon him carrying rather heavy
basket of grapes and other fruit on her
arm.
"Oh, Giuseppina," he cried, "let me
help yout" and seized the basket sud-
denly from her hand.
The woman. overwhelmed by such
condescension, protested, '"Troppo onore,
sign0re."
Nonsense" said the poet. you are
always helping me. Won't you allow
me for once to help you?"
Still the woman resisted, saying, at
is not for such as you, o signore."
This was more than he could bear
eve are all made of the same clay,
Giuseppina, and, gaining his point
for who could withstand his will?-he
held one handle of the basket until
they reached the palace door.
This same worthy woman is fond OF
relating a story of her master which H.
lustrates another side Of his character.
He had paid her weekly account, and
there renamed cenCeSlmO as cnanSe.
The woman showed the little coin, say
ing shyly, 81 cannot offer this tri1e to

"Yes, my good Giuseppina," he said.

thing to be just and another to be gen.

that the atmospheric pressure on him
