80RkX. NATURES DISIkFECTAhT,
CLEANSER AND PURIFIER

Everybody realizes the necessity of
some method of publication of sinks.
drains and utensils in which may Turk
the germ of a dreaded disease.
Health is a question of cleanliness
and prevention.
Most people are familiar with the use
of disinfectants in their ordinary sense
all of which are unpleasantly aSso-
ciated with disagreeable odors, on
which are depended to kill the conta-
gion (Which disinfectants must of ne
cesSity be of a more or less dangerous
character) and must be used for this
purpose and for no other and in conse-
Quence kept from children and careless
handling.
There is. however. within the reach
of all our readers a simple, safe and
economical article that will not only an
sWer for every disinfecting purpose
but can also be used for a multitude of
domestic cleansing and purifying pur-
poses-BOraX.
BoraX is Il pure, white harmless pow
utI tOIlIIlS dIEeCI from Nature IaDOf-
atory; in fact BoraX has often been
called Natures Cleanser and Disinfec-
tant."
Two tablespoonfuls of Borax in
pailful of hot water poured down the
grease-choked pipes of a sink. or flushed
through Il disease-laden drain. cleanses
and purifies it, leaving it clean and
sweet.
Bed clothing and clothes used in a
sick room can be made hygienically
clean and snowy-white, if washed in
a hot solution of BoraX water.
Kitchen and eating utensils. used
during illness will be kept from all pos
sibility of contagion if Borax is used
when washing them. Pure as snow and
harmless as salt, and because it can
be used for almost every domestic and
medical purpose. BOraX must be consid-
cred the one great household necessity.

One of the most potent factors, per
haps, that should be considered when
selecting a breed for producing eggs
for market is the demand of the mar
ket at which the eggs are to be dis
posed Of, says The Outing Magazine
Some markets, notably New York City
and cities Immediately adjacent, pre-
fer white-shelled Eggs, and the best
trade in these markets will accept none
other. Boston prefers brown eggs, and
pays q substantial premium for them ;;
and. taking the country over, the pref
erence is for brown eggs by a large
majority. However. in many markets
no preference at all is expressed in
fact, those just mentioned are practic-
ally the only markets in which the
color of the egg receives attention to
the extent of influencing prices. Where
there is 4 preference, and whichever
the preference is, one should keep a va
riety of fowls that lay eggs of the pre-
ferred color

TOLD BY GESTURES.
Silent Testimony of a Deaf Mute in
French Murder Trial.

A murder trial at Bordeaux in which
an innkeeper. his wife and two accom-
plices We're charged with killing a GUS
toner was the occasion of a dramatic
scene when one of the witnesses took
the stand. This witness. named Lacapl-
payne, was a deaf mute ignorant of the
ordinary finger language.
His brother-in-law and two of his
friends appeared to translate his GEES
lures into words. but their services were
really unnecessary, so clearly did he
express himself By that instructive MINI
icry which is sometimes the accompani-
ment of speech but here became its sub
stitute.
During his evidence the deaf mute.
who had been the handy man of the inn
always designated the victim by sucking
his cheeks against his teeth. the landlord
by shaking his fst-his EMPLOYERS usual
lords wife by putting his hands to his
hair. one accompice by curling his mus
tache, and the other by striking an i'm
aginary match on his trousers, as this
prisoner was a smuggler OF matches
Then with short, abrupt gestures, as
clear as they were rapid. he told his
story, how the landlady sent him away
the door locked. how he entered by the
cellar door, saw the corpse, saw one
murderer washing a blood stained ham
mer another cleaning his face and
hands. and the landlady embracing her
husband as if to thank him for what he
had done. The landlord caught sight of
him and dealt him a violent blow then,
changing his mind, made signs to him
to help to get rid of the body.
At this point the landlord. who clear
ly followed the deaf mutes story. broke
in with That's a lie. That's a lie.''
Lacampagne turned. looked in the
landlords face. then stamping with his
foot he raised his hand and stood in the
same solemn attitude in which he had
taken the oath.
This evidence and confession by the
mustache wearing prisoner were enough
TO convict the accused. The landlord
and the match smuggler were sentenced
to death, the others to imprisonment for
fifteen years.

Poultry Notes.

Clean the droppings from under the
roosts frequently.
Grit is the hens teeth. Provide her
with plenty of it, so that she may di-
gest her food.
If you expect the hen to lay freely.
you must feed her the kind of stuff
that will make eggs.
Buckwheat is excellent for both
young and old poultry.
A laying hen should have constant
access to lime or gravel.
Feed only what the hens will eat up

COFFEE EYES.
1t Acts Slowly but Frequently Pro-
duces Blindness.


The curious effect of slow daily poi
soning and the gradual building in of
disease as a result, is shown in num-
bers of cases where the eyes are af-
fected by coffee.
A case in point will illustrate:
a lady in Oswego, Mont, expert
enced a slow but sure disease settling
upon her eyes in the form of increas-
ing weakness and shooting pains with
wavy, dancing lines of light, SO vivid
that nothing else could be seen for
minutes at a time.
She says:
This gradual failure Of sight alarm
ed me and 1 naturally began a very
earnest quest for the cause. About
this time I was told that coffee poison
ing sometimes took that form, and
while I didn't believe that coffee was
the cause of my trouble, [ concluded
to quit it and see.

spite of the jokes of Husband whose
experience with one cup at a neighbOr's
was unsatisfactory. Well, I made
Postum strictly according to directions,
boiling it a little longer, because of
our high altitude. The result was
charming l have now used Postum
in place of coffee for about 3 months
and my eyes are well, never paining
me or showing any weakness. I know
to a certainty that the cause Of the
trouble was coffee and the cure was in
quitting it aud building up the nervous
system on Postum, for that was abso-
lutely the only change 1 made in diet
and 1 took no medicine.
MY nursing baby has been kept in a
perfectly healthy state since 1 have
used Postum.
