Oyerfeeding of Fowl.

Irregular feeding usually means over
feeding. The fowl. like other animals
that are not fed at proper intervals, is
liable to eat too much at one time and
suffer from indigestion. But such suf'
tering means ceasing of egg production
for the fowl as surely as 1t does of
milk production in the cow. There is
but one way TO prevent this, and that
is the feeding at regular hours, and If
any cause, as an enforced absence from
home, delays the feeding hour, give
less rather than more 10 the flock and
see that the larger and more greedy
ones do not obtain more than their
proper share. Even missing one feeding
entirely is not as bad for them as get
ting too much at one time, and If any
time is an excuse for hearty feeding
it Is just before they go 10 roost AT
night Then they can digest ii before
morning. Whether too much at that
time ever gives them the nightmare or
not we cannot say, but we never saw
or heard any indications OF 1.-THE

Rrain and Intellect.

The exact seat in the brain Of the
Lighest intellectual faculties has
formed a moot point n science since
the functions of the organ of mind be-
gan to be investigated with accuracy.
The general opinion localized what we
term mind" in the pre-fontal lobes Of
the brain. but by another school Of
thinkers the hinder lobes have been
credited with performing our highest
cerebral duties. The balance OF evil
dence is decidedly in favor Of the for
mer view. and recent researches and
observations by Or. Phelps. an Amer.
lean investigator. would appear TO as
sist i'm strengthenin the opinion that
the most important portion of the brain
is its anterior region. In the course Of
The Investigations in question some
195 cases Of brain injury and disease
were examined. In all cave two IL was
uoted that interference of extensive
nature with the pre-fontal region re-
suited in serious disturbance OF the
mental faculties Less severe injury
produced less marked effects. These
facts parallel the researches of other
Investigators. and they are further sub.

"The best shoes for baby to wear up
to eleven or twelve months, are the
soft, kid moccasins, laced, never but
toned.
"These have soles of the soft kid and
should be very wide at the toe, lest the
smallest toe be pressed too closely.
stockings are just as important as
shoes. and should be of ample width,
very soft and fine. and by all means
some other color than black. Black
retains the heat more than any other
color, and will cause the feet to
perspire, and thIs induce chatting be-
tween the toes.
