From the Baltimore American.

From the Baltimore American.
Geneva, N. Y.-The potato and the
turnip promise to become the strong
rivals of malt in the manufacture of
an intoxicating beverage. The efficacy
of the juice of these common vege-
tables was discovered in a novel way.
Thomas Warren, who resides on the
old turnpike road west of Geneva, no.
ticed one day this week that his hogs
appeared to be dazed.
1t was found that George West and
William Mobiles, two itlnerant farm
helpers hired by Mr. Warren recently,
had been squeezing potatoes and tur-
nips up into a mash and after pro-
curing all of the extract therefrom
threw the remains of the mash to the
hogs. The hogs evidently did not re-
quire much of the leftover essence to
get on a good Jag" All last week
the swine have appeared to be jagged
and Mr.. Warren succeeded in getting
at the cause only after he found the
two farm hands and a dozen chums
hitting up key of the new essence
OF frumenti" in the barn.
Mobiles was almost dazed by the dos
age, while his partner was completely
"paralyzed." Warren managed to get
the information from the men that
led to the news of the wonderful prop
critics OF potato juice and turnip Juice
as a jag-producer.
Mr. Warren said: IT tasted the al
legged merits of this mixture for my
self. A wine glassful gave me the SEN
sation of going up in a balloon. Ten
minutes afterwards / became silly
drunk and 1t was three hours before
regained my normal self It will be
winner if put on the market. The
taste is not agreeable, but IL some
sweet cordial is added the drink could
be made palatable. 1 may, myself,
start the manufacture of this new dis
covery. I have warned the boys not
to drink too much of this stuff and
not to feed any of the leftover mash
to the swine. If the swine have had
the same sensations as / had they will
be greatly disappointed in not getting
more mash"
Mr.. Warren is one of the farmers
who three weeks ago took measures
to stop the farm hands from tapping
corn silos and extracting the fermented
juice therefrom. Now that potato-
turnip juice has been discovered as a
fine jag-producer, the farm help need
not come to town any more when thew

The Good That Comes from A Ynwn.
LNrnrr, NfndicaI ia LIZ

From Medical Talk.
A good, wide, open-mouthed yawn is
a splendid thing for the whole body.
A yawn is natures demand for rest.
Some people think they only yawn be-
cause they are sleepy. But this is not
so. You yawn because you are tired.
You may be sleepy also, but that is
not the real cause of your yawning
You are sleepy because you are tired,
and you yawn because you are tired.
Whenever you feel like yawning, just
yawn. Don't try to suppress it, be-
cause you think 1t is impolite to yawn.
Put your hand over your mouth If you
want to, but let the yawn come. And
IL you are where you can stretch at
the same time that you yawn, just
stretch and yawn. This is natures
way of stretching and relaxing the
muscles.
Don't be afraid to open your mouth
wide and yawn and stretch whenever
you feel like It, Indeed, If you are very
tired, but do not feel like yewning,
there is nothing that will rest you so
quickly as to sit on a straight back
chair and lifting the feet from the
floor push them out in front Of you as
far as possible stretch the arms, put
the head back, open the mouth wide
and make yourself yawn.
Those tense nerves Will relax, the
contracted muscles Will stretch and
the whole body will be rested. DO this
two or three times when you are tired
and see what It viii do for you.
