FACTS FOR FARMERS.

1t is not the abundance of land,
but the thorough and skillful cultiva-
ton of it, that fills the barn with
hay, the cribs with corn and the
kitchen with plenty.
The farmer with no inheritage but
health, with no riches but industry,
and no ambition but virtue is sole
king among men, and the only man
among kings.
No farmer ought to undertake to
cultivate more land than he can stock
and manage. 1t is better to till so
acres we'll than 100 in Il slovenly man
ner.
Industry, prudence and economy
are essential to insure success in any
business whatever. a regular system
is also indispensably necessary, and
in none does this find "A more appro-
pirate lodging than in farming.
Be not above your profession, and
always consider it as the best any
man can follow. Never shrink from
doing anything your business calls
you to do. The man who is above
his business will some day find his
business above him.-Cotton Plant
ers' Journal.

CHOOSING AK HANDLES.
It's a Little Thing in Way, But One
Calling for Exercise for JudG-
ment Nevertheless.

When buying an AK handle always
select one that is made entirely from
the sap wood or the heart wood, but
never one that is made partly of each,
for it will split along the line of union.
Handles made from sap wood are more
elastic and better for chOpping, and
a man will not tire or get sore so
quickly when using one. Iprefer those
made from the heart wood for split
ting, although they are not so dura BILE.
The proper length and curve of the
handle depends upon the habit and
method o. chOpping of the user With
a long handle man will strike much
harder blow, but with short handle
he will strike oftener, so there is prac-
tically no difference in the work &C
cOmplished.
The curve, too, depends upon the
habit of the user. A curved handle

A PASTORS WIFE pz.H Ssse eaf 11
She Suffered for Years and
Felt Her Case Was Hope
IeSs-Cured by
Peruna.

KTRS. ANNA B. FLEHARTY, recent
lVI superintendent of the w. {. L. L.
adquarters, at Galesburg, Ill,
was for ten years one of the leading
women there. Her husband, when liv
ing, was first President of the Nebraska
Wesleyan University, at Lincoln, Neb.
In a letter written from 4O1 Sixty
seventh street, W., Chicago, H., Mrs.
Fleharty says the following in regard
to Peruna:
Having lived very active life as
wife and working partner of busy
minister, my health failed me few
years ago. 1 lost my husband about
the same time, and gradually 1 seemed
to lose health and spirit. Ny daughter
is confirmed invalid, and we both felt
great need of an invigorator.
"One of my neighbOrs advised me
to try Peruna. A bottle was in7n7edi-
ateLy secured and a great change took
place in my daughters as well as in
my own health. Our appeHfeS i'm
proved very greatly, the digestion
seemed much helped, and restfuI sleep
soon improved us, SO that we seemed
like new women.
al would not be without Peruna for
ten times its COST. Mrs. Anna B.
FIeharfy.
What used to be called female dis
eases by the medical profession is now
called pelvic catarrh. 1t has been
found by experience that catarrhal
diseases of the pelvic organs are the
cause of most cases of female disease.
DR.. Hartman was among the first of
Americas great physicians to make
this discovery. For forty years he has
been treating diseases peculiar to
women, and long ago he reached the
conclusion that woman entirely free
from catarrhal affection of these or
gans would not be subject to female
disease. He therefore began using Pc
runa for these cases and found it so
admirably adapted to their permanent
cure that Peruna has now become the
most famous remedy for female dis
eases ever known. Everywhere the
women are using it and praising it.
Peruna is not palliative simply; it
cures by removing the cause of female
disease.
Dr. Hartman has probably cured
more women of female ailments than
any other living physician. He makes
these cures simply by using and rec
ommending Peruna.

A New French Fertilizer.

In France a fertilizer called "pou-
drette" is manufactured from night
soil. Though cot very rich in the
elements of plant food, it has in
the past proved quite valuable Cor
use in gardens owing to its perfect
mechanical structure. 1t was made
by wixing night soil with charcoal,
peat. tanbark, street cleanings, land
plaster and the like. In parts OF
France and England night soil was
made into manure by being COM
posted with lime slaked in urine. In
shaking, about one-half as much
urine is used as lime (by weight).
The resultant slaked lime is a dry
powder and may be mixed with night
soil successfully when the latter is
comparatively fresh. If fermenta-
ton has begun much ammonia mi

lime.

A Nasty Practice.

A nasty practice is what the Chicago
Inter Ocean calls the FASTING of repeated
layers of wall paper, one upon another, thus
covering up the filth and germs of disease
sorbent and decaying mass of -four paste,
paper, animal glue, colors, etc.
They give opinions of eminent health of
fcers and sanitarians, urging that such
practice should be stopped by legal enact
ment, and also take occasion to say that
these sanitarians recommend Alabastine
as a durable, pure and sanitary coating for
walls.
The Inter Ocean says: "This is a very
important question, and, as it costs moth
ing to avoid this danger, why take any
chances"
How much of the alarming spread OF
smallpox and other diseases may be due tc
unsanitary wall coverings?

has no advantage over the one that is
perfectly straight. Most people pre-
fer the curved, because they are ac-
customed to its use. AS a rule the
straight handle is more durable. The
size of the handle depends upon the
muscular development of the user. If
it is too small it will cramp the fingers,
and if too large it will lame the hands
and wrist.
If one will examine the end of
piece of wood he will see that it is
made of layers, each layer represent
ing the growth of one year. Wood
splits much more easily along these
lines than across them, hence when Sc
lecting an ak handle, always choose
one in which the layers are parallel
with the line of force, as shown in
Fig. 1. If. they are at right angles,
as in Fig. 2, few days use will cause
the handle to split along the dotted
lines shown. The difference in quality
in this respect is so marked that many
dealers sort their handles and make
the price of one about double that of
the other.
In hanging an ak considerable at
tention should be paid to the kind of
work which is to be done. For small
wood hang an AK pointing in, as shown
IN Fig. 3. For very large trees hang
it squarely across, or at right angles
to the handle, and for splitting, es-
pecially block wood, hang it out ac-
cording to Fig. 4. This gives one a
chance to strike heavy blow, square
ly across the block, using the whole
bit of the AK, and without making a
tiresome bend of the back with every
blow. The relative position of the
blade and handle may be changed by
inserting a small wedge in the eye of
die. as occasion may require.-Orange

Telegraph Across Ocean.

The recent experiment in wireless telegra-
ply across the ocean was a complete sue
cess and aroused great public interest.
There has also been great interest mani
tested in the success of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, the celebrated remedy for stomach,
liver and kidney complaints, because it is
reliable. 1t promotes appetite, regulates the
liver, keeps the bowels regular and cures in
digestion, dyspepsia, la grippe and malaria.
