FOR THE COMPLEXION.
Some of the Things Which Women
Who Care for Their HcaIth and
Looks Should Not Do.

Don't eat when very tired, if you ex-
| pect to get any good from your food
and preserve your beauty.
Don't eat more than one hearty meal
day. This is the secret of good looks
health and long life-a secret which if
every one followed the doctors could not
make living.
Don't eat much meat in warm wealth
er if you would keep your skin free from
eruptions.
Don't eat hot or fresh bread if you
want to be healthy ard beautiful.
Don't eat cold, starchy foods, like po-
tato salad and cold porridge, unless you
have strong digestive organs.
Don't eat ice cream too fast. Eaten
slowly and allowed to melt in the
mouth it can do no harm.
Don't drink ice water. Cool water
quenches thirst much better than ice
cold fluid.
Don't drink much water at meals, but
take a glassful the first thing in the
morning and the last thing at night.
Don't drink too much coffee or tea
unless you want complexion like
leather in color and texture.
Don't eat potatoes, peas, macaroni,
cream, olive oil, pastry and bonbons if
you want to lose flesh.
Don't go to bed hungry. A glass Of
milk or cupful of chocolate will re-
fresh you.
Don't think you can eat too much
spinach, lettuce, watercress, dandelion
or carrots. They are complexion beau
tifiers.-Louisville Courier-Journal.

BUT ONE PROPER TIME.
Noted massachusetts Horticulturlnt
Says Tint Ali Pruning Should
BE Done in June.

After three score years OF experience
in orchard culture, allow me to say
something on the proper time for
pruning. There is but one proper time,
the month OF June, when the new bark
forms on the wood.
More orchards are ruined by being
pruned at improper times than IRON all
other causes. Ii pruned in autumn or
winter, the bark will dry around the
stump and heal there, but never over
the end; this exposed stump will rot
out in few years, leaving a ragged
hole where water can enter, and the
decay OF the center of the whole tree
begins, shortening its life many years.
II pruned in the spring, the wound
Dleeds, the sap often running down
and killing the bark below, making
black, unsightly wound, which never
heals over, and the whole tree is sub
ject to decay.
II pruned in June, when the new bark
and wood is forming, the wound begins
to heal at once, and no matter what the
size of the branch cut may be, the
wound will heal before decay begins il
the tree is vigorous and in good condi-
ton.
Care should be taken to cut close to
the trunk or larger branch, so that the
wound may heal over the end, for II
cut two or three inches from the trunk
or main branch, nature forgets to carry
the necessary material to heal over the
wound, and again the water enters and
decay occurs.
When from accident, the effect of snow
or Ice, large branch is broken, cut tenn
porarlly, leaving foot or more to be
cut again close to the trunk in the
month of June
The reason farmers generally prune
In early spring is that they then have
time and little else to do and are anx-
ious to be at work, and thus have some
excuse; but if they could realize the
damage they are doing to their own
property, they might perhaps refrain
and put their labor to better account at
the proper season.-W. S. Ripley, in
Country Gentleman.

by three-inch stuff nailed on right-hand
straight edge and the level fastened on
the right-hand side of the uprights, so
as to be out of the way of the staff or
handle, which can be of any length to
suit the operator. The bevel is fastened
on the uprights with one common screw
at the further end of the level The 9TH
er end opposite is fastened onto the
upright by cutting a narrow slot hole in
the upright, through which put small
bolt that will just fill the slot hole side
ways, also coming through the'level pro-
vided with thumb nut and washer as
shown on the drawing. There must be
great accuracy in putting the level upon
the uprights to have the bottom of the
level and the bottom of the straight edge
exactly parallel. When you are getting
the grade or fall of ditch to the rod by
raising or lowering the rear end of the
level by taking the difference on a
straight line with the bottom of the level
measured down at each extreme end of
the straight edge, you can tell just what
incline your ditch will have per rod null
tiplying the variation by four. For in
stance, if the difference in length of the
straight edge and the line of the bottom
of the level was three-eights of an inch,
the fall in the ditch per rod would be
twelve-eights, equal to w inches, as the
straight edge is one-fourth of 1612 feet.
Always drive the tile tight at the top
of the joint to keep out all the loose dirt.
My experience teaches me that the water
always enters the tile at the bottom. Al
ways use scoop to fit the size of the
tile, then, when you fill in, the dirt will
not crowd the tile out of line In setting
the level for work, have the incline so
as to have the bubble always occupy the
center of the opening of the level. In so
doing you seldom require the services
of a surveyor.-Prairie Farmer.

MARYLAND LEADS OFF.
Oranges of That State Support Ma
tionnl Demand for Federal Aid
In Road Building.

The state grange of Maryland is the
first of the state oranges to follow the
National grange in demanding that the
government aid in improving the high
ways. At fully attended meeting in
Baltimore recently a strong resolution
on this subject was adopted, and Master
]. B. Ager in his annual address said:
There seem to be great interest at this
time all over the state in regard to good
roads. 1t is said that the government
has expended s500,000,000 in improving
the rivers and harbors and proposes to
spend 2OO,OO0,O00 in building the 18TH
mian canal Therefore we believe some
thing should be appropriated to assist
the farmers in building permanent high
ways.
According to Secretary Wilson's re-
port the farmers have aided the govern
ment very materially. Discussing the
balance of trade, the secretary says that
the favorable balance of trade to the
credit of this country is due entirely
to the farmers. The balance of trade in
the farm products during the last IA
years. no year excepted, aggregated $4,-
BOG 100000 in products. Other than the
farm products during the same period,
the balance of trade was adverse to this
country to the extent of $685., 900 900.
Our farmers not only Cancelled this i'm
mense obligation, but placed So, $40 ,OOO,-
600 to the credit of the nation, when the
books of the international exchanges
were balanced. He concludes that it is
the farmers that have paid the foreign
bondholders. Now, why should not the
government aid the farmers in the con-
struction of roads? 1t is shown by care
full estimates that it cost $500 900 900 to
haul the products of the farm to railway
stations, rivers and canals, which is
vastly more than it costs to maintain
1000 miles of railway, and by careful
estimates the cost could be reduced one
half. have no doubt that on some roads
1t could be reduced much more"

part of it SO that there is not a
crease or line to be seen.
The measurement round the wrist at
the first button should be 81 inches
round the knuckles at the base Of the
fingers 6M inches, round the hand at the
ball of the thumb 7;2 inches, from the
base to the top of the thumb 4as inches,
and from the top of the second finger
to the fork 31a inches. The other fin
gers in proportion. The lady who car
show these measurements can safely lay
claim to an ideal hand which will COM
pare favorably with any other.
The fashion in gloves, although it is
of course bound to vary in certain de-
tails of cut and style, is always more or
less of fixed quaEtity. The latest ten
dency toward change is in the direc-
ton of shortness.

oaneaii'e wide and an inch
deep. They are fastened by screws to
the top of the projecting ledge, one on
each side of the dais upon which the pre-
siding officer of the senate sits.
The snuff boxes are in the keeping OF
the sergeant at arms of the senate, who
buys on an average five pounds of snuff
a year to keep them filled, and they are
repled1shed twice every week with as
much regularity as the senate is called
to order.
The last senator who used the snuff
boxes was Turner, of Washington, who
retired from the senate last March. Be-
fore him Carter, of Montana, was an oc-
casional devotee at the shrine. In COM
paratively recent years Edmunds, Of
Vermont, and Thurman, of Ohio, met by
the snuff boxes on common ground, and
there established friendship that was
lasting and close until Thurman died.
1t was the senatorial snuff box that
gave to the democratic campaign of
1883 its famous emblem of the ban
danna Thurman would go to the box
on the democratic side, help himself to
big pinch, return to his desk and there
execute astonishing gymnastics with
the red bandanna which he flourished.
The men in the press gallery, of course,
did not overlook SO picturesque fea-
ture, and tEus the panuanna Iuuno its
way to political history.

possible to tell it from the real article
is another new thing which has the
recommendation Of being at any rate
very clever.
Winter gloves are being made in
much the same shapes and colors this
year, but the style illustrated is partic-
ularly elegant. They are made of fine
buckskin in two colors only, tan and
slate, and are fastened in very easy
and uncommon way, while the lining
is woolly and warm, and a squirrel fur
belt round the wrist ADDS to the COM
fort and effect.
Nearly all the hand-stitched gloves
worn in this country are made abroad
in France, Vienna and other places,
but to such perfection have the stitch
ing machines been brought recently
that very nearly as fine work can be
done by them. and there is tendency,
accordingly, for the work 10 be kept ut
home.

HINTS ABOUT MILKING.

Before commencing to milk, brush
all loose dirt from the sides and udder
of the COW.
Always milk the COW dry before
leaving her, but do not continue Strip
ping after the milk is all drawn.
Always milk a COW in the same
manner, at about the same time and
speed. Any change will irritate and
tend to excite her.
There should always be a friendly
feeling between the COW and the milk
er, and mixers should not be changed
ii it can be avoided.
A COW will not give down" her milk
to mixer she hates or is afraid of.
and what she does give will be de-
ficient in butter fat.
After little manipulation of tho
teats and udder, the milk is ready to
come down." Then is the time to
take it, and do not delay.
The last milk drawn from COW is
much richer than the first. The last
quart usually contains more than three
times as much butter as the first.
No definite rule can be given as to
how the teats should be handled in
milking, as cows differ and hands diff
fer SO much; but be sure of one thing.
please the COW if possible
| Have the stable clean and have the
COW clean, or you cannot get clean
milk. Lime and whitewash for walls
and posts is good thing Land
plaster is good absorbent in the
stable.
When it comes a cows turn to be
MIXED she knows it and expects it and
wants to be milked. If you disappoint
her and milk half an hour later, the
chances are that you will get less and
even poorer milk than if you MIXED
at the proper time.

New Years is already become very

good reason for this. The holiday sea-

After some experience chicks can
be selected before they are two
months old. Leghorn pullets soon
show their sex on the wings. Barred

than the pullets, and there is a differ

out the wings sooner and take form
early. Cockerels are straight up

bare about the shoulders. The pullets

are the best guides. 1t is claimed that

to be made, because the white house

The little tots got their invitations in

casionally does and asks Tor the i'm
mediate passage of measure about
which he knows a great deal and other
senators know little, that bill is pretty
sure to go through without the formal
ity of debate and by unanimous con-
sent.
There are not many senator's who
have this confidence of their col
leagues, and that Warren is one of
them is tribute to the absolute sin
certify with which his public conduct
is characterized.
Warren was born in Massachusetts,,
and got his first training in the Berk-
shires. He was farmers boy, and he
.Ae-a to fight his own way. He went to
Wyoming and grew UP with the coun-
try, and now he is reputed to be one of
the wealthiest men in the state, the
owner of great tracts of land and of
great quantities of city real estate.
He is the principal citizen Of the state,
and would be such even if he did not
occupy seat in the senate. He has
a way of getting there" which i'm
presses his contemporaries. That is the
secret Of his success.

from Cheyenne to Washington the rail-
road was Indifferent about finding it

one of the freight cars of the offending
road appeared. He attached it immedi.
ately, and did not release it till his
trunk was found.

congress of sleuths like I'M
to the Pinkertons. The fact is that the
bureau has no legitimate functions ex-
cept to hunt out counterfeiters and pun
ish them But the custom has grown
of calling on the force for all sorts of
outside work for which they are no
more fitted than the force of inspectors
in the post Office department under Mr..
Bristow would be fitted for general po-
lice work.
Evey since Cleveland's day the secret
service men have been employed to
watch the president and ward off
cranks. They have gone out of their
way to investigate other departments of
the government than the treasury, and
there have been times esen when the
men were set to work logging members
of congress.
But the appropriation for the service
reads specifically, "$125,000 for the pre-
vention of counterfeiting." That was
put in for u special purpose ten or a
dozen years ago, so that there should
be no misunderstanding of the duties
of the force. Successive secretaries of
the treasury have tried in vain TO have
the form amended SO as to give the bu-
reau greater legal latitude, but con-
gress has always refused, because it does
not believe in secret funds for any pur-
pose.
Now some of the leaders, like Speaker
are preparing to curb the ac-
tivities of the bureau, and they will
put something in the appropriation bill
if they can to accomplish this purpose.
