The whole matter of tipping is
wrong. The man who is compelled to
give Is mulcted and the man who Is
asked to receive is insulted, whether
he knows it or not. 1t may never be
possible to correct the evil Of tipping
by legislative enactments. but 1t can
be curtailed by individual habit. The
sentiment against 1t is growing. Peo-
pie will continue to make small pres
ents to faithful servants as long as
some men are born to serve and some
to be served. but the time is coming
when they will do 80 only through
choice and not from compulsion. The
porter, like the waiter and the barber
and the hackman, has been led to look
upon the tip as his right. and one to
play or fight for. In the revulsion Of
feeling which has come over the pub
lie because of the growing demands for
tips on the part of the serving classes,
the porter must suffer with his fellows.

Three irons, one and one-half inches
thick and one inch wide are passed
under the tank and used to support
the bottom. They are shown at AAA.
These should come up at least four
inches at the side.
A trench eight feet long, twenty
inches wide, fifteen inches deep,
should be dug and the vat placed over
it. The trench should be,dug so that
the wind has a straight draught under
the vat. Fill the vat two-thirds full
of water. The scraping bench should
be set against the side of the val.
Light chains, each about eight feet
long, are used to lower and raise the
hog into the water. These chains
should be fastened at the edge of the
scraping bench and should be placed
about two feet six inches apart. BY
placing these chains above the vat,
says Prairie Farmer, the hog can be
lowered into the water, and when
scalded, can be readily removed.

Vat For scnIdinR Hogs.

A very good vat for heating water
for scalding hogs can be made in the
following manner: Take two two by
twelve planks and cut them so they
are six feet on one edge and five feet
two inches on the other edge. These
form the sides of the vat. For the
ends take two pieces two by twelve,
each plank three feet long. About
three inches from each end of the two
sides cut a groove cross two inches
wide and three-quarters OF an inch
deep for the end of the sides to fit.
Holes should be bored at top and
bottom for half-inch bolts across the
ends to hold the sides in position.
The bottom of the vat is made of
sheet iron nailed to the bottom and
on to the vat. The vat should BIS
long enough to come around both
ends and fasten at top and, also,
should be wide enough to come up
the sides for two or three inches.

=. Is An Internal Disease And Re-

THE cause of Rheumatism and kindred
diseases is an excess of uric acid in the
Hood. To cure this terrible disease this
ocid must be e~peiled and the system SO
rsoulcted that no more acid will be formed
IN excessive quantities.. Rheumatism is an
;nterral disease and requires an internal
remedy. Rubbing with Oils and Liniments
will not cure, affords only temporary relief
at best, causes you TO delay the proper
treatment, and allows the malady to get .
srmer hold on you. Liniments may ease
the pain, but they will no more cure Rheu-
matism than paint will change the fibre
of rotten wood.
Science has at last discovered a per-
feet and complete cure, which ,is~-eaNed

cases, it has effected the most marvellous
cures; we believe it will cure you. 4sRheu-

has been for many generations bred
for dairy production, and avoid ali

tics that make an animal the best for
the dairy will always forbid fits being
a good beef animal. You may fatten
a dairy-bred steer, and he may gain
in gross weight as fast as the best

broad loins he will give o a big lot
Of internal tallow, for there is where
he has been bred to put his fat, just
as the COW OF that breed has been
bred to put her fat into her milk.
Some lay great stress on the fact that
