Trees Full or Alcohol.

A new source of alcohol has been
discovered in West Australia. The
grass tree, which fiourishes so thick.
ly in that colony that it has become a
nuisance to ag~ricrlturists, turns out to
be full Of alcohol, and the fbers of
the core yield from five-tenths to one
and a quarter gallons Of proof spirit a
buShel. The quantities of the material
and the ease with which it can be
treated lead the minister of agricul.
ture to believe that the discovery of
this alcohol-bearing property will be
commercially valuable, especially for
the manufacture of methylated spirits.

The Dome .tic Hen a Wonder.

Scratching q living here and there,
killing thousands Of bugs and worms
which would cause much loss of crops
If allowed to live, the ordinary barn
gard hen Is q wonderful combination Of
productive forces. In five years time
she will lay 100 eggs, each contain
ing $50 grains of water, 125 Of fat,
10S of lime, SO of albumen. &c Of sugar
and 10 of ash-the most condensed and
strengthening form of food offered to
man. Every person having a little
plot Of ground Is able to keep from
half a dozen to many dozen Of these
wonders and so add to the family In
come. To do this to the greatest ad-
vantage, one must know how to care
for his fowls-to guard against, de-
tect and cure disease; which fowls to
ave for breeding purposes, etc. The
simplest and most satisfactory way Of
securing this knowledge is to buy it
from some person who has made a
success Of fowl raising as a business.

KNOWS NOW
Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Case Fo,
O Time.

It's easy to understand how ordinary
people get fooled by coffee when doc
tors themselves sometimes forget the
facts.
A physician speaks of his own expert
ence:
81 had used coffee for years an6
really did not exactly believe it was in
juring me, although 1 had palpitatior
of the heart every day.
FINALLY one day a severe and almo-,
fatal attack of heart trouble frightened
me and l gave up both tea and coffee
using Postum instead, and since that
time l have had absolutely no heart
palpitation except Oh Il or two occa
sions when l tried a small quantity OF
coffee which caused severe irritation
and proved to me l must let it alone.
"When we began using Postum il
seemed ~weak-that was because w9
did not make it according to directions
but now we put a little bit of butter
in the pot when boiling and allow tho
Postum to boil full 10 minutes, which
gives it the proper rich favor and the
deep brown color.
Il have advised a great many of my
friends and patients to leave off coffee
and drink Postum, in fact, l daily give
this advice" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
: Many thousands of physicians use
Postum in place of tea and coffee in
their OWL homes and prescribe 1t to
patients. There's a reason"

Burbank of Catdom.

1t is interesting to learn that Mrs.
Balding is endeavoring to produce q
strain of "self-sable" cats. A more
attractive color it is difficult to i'm
agine, and if Mrs. Balding brings the
intelligence and perseverance which
has distinguished her efforts in other
matters into play, her endeavor should
soon meet with success. AS the origin
ator of the chinchilla cat, Mrs. Bald
ing merits the respect and gratitude
of all cat-fanciers. The greatest diff
Guilty she will have to face in produc-
ing "~self-sables" is the elimination OF
ticking, as. when the markings go
brown, tabby cats generally fade into
something like an Observation-Disclosures

Raadinp hv the Blind.

A well-known French ophthalmolo-
gist, who had the misfortune to be-
come blind several years ago, did not
permit this calamity to interfere with
a scientific study of reading and writ
ing, but led him to investigate reading
by the blind, employing the Braille, or
raised, type. He found that the tactile
acuity of the blind was actually less
than that of normal persons, and that
few, even those born blind, are able
to attain a speed Of 100 words a
minute in reading, or of ten words q
minute in writing. One finger is US
ually employed for reading, being edu-
Gated for this purpose; and while 9TH
ers may be more sensitive, yet they are
not useful for this purpose. The read
ing finger tires very easily, and it is
this fact that initiates against easy
reading by the blind.-Harper's Weekly.

The cause of death was declared to
be septic poisoning by two veterinary
