and corn roast down the river, and he
wired the girl:

100 miles. The island consists almost
entirely of sulphur. with small per

an attempt was made 20 float a com
pany to work the sulphur, which is OF
high quality, but sufficient capital was
not subscribed. Therefore the export
of sulphur from White island is still
very small In the interior is a lake
fully fifty acres in extent, the water
of which has a temperature of 40 de-

Live Stock Notes.

Do you use the whip because you
have it handy?
Are you humane in the treatment of
the animals you drive?
A horses pulse beats from thirty-six
to forty times minute when he is in
health.
A mule is no more prone to kick than
horse unless he is taught to do so by
bad treatment.
Are you one Of the unthinking who
starts horse with a blow instead Of
using your voice?
Do you want a balky horse? You
can easily have one by giving him
too heavy loads to draw.
If the horse must be kept in the barn
during hot weather keep all the doors
and windows wide open.
Oats is the most perfect all round
feed for horses at any time Of the
year. Barley is close second.
1t is a good sign to see a pair of
scales in the stable, but you have to
use them to get any good from them.
Carrots must be fed sparingiy to
working horses. Gut them IN slices.
They are laxative. and affect the
kidneys also.
Lop of the ration of all kinds when
the horses are doing little or nothing.
They are too much like man to stand
heavy feed while lying still.
Stuff1ng the colt with hay or straw
or any coarse feed will spon IT'S looks.
Keep this ration down by the use of
some grain and less coarse feed.
Watch the hired man with your
horses. If they cringe, dodge or show
signs of fear while with him, take my
advice and fire him. A good horse
is spoiled when he is victim Of fear.
Don't make your horse wait TIN he is
cooled or before you give him a drink.
Take a couple Of quarts in a paii and
give that. Then wait while and give
as much more. BY this you win save
a lot Of suffering ON the part Of your
horse and he will come out all right

Evolution of the NURSING Rottls

Evolution OF the Nursing Bottle.
The original nursing bottle was a
cows horn, to the small end of which
were sewed two pieces Of leather, as a
finger of a glove, and the infant drew
its nourishment between the stitches.
According to DR.. D. Forsyth. fifteenth
century mothers used to nurse their
babies for close upon three years, a
duration still customary among the
japanese and Greenlanders. In the
time Of the Stuarts 1t had declined to
between eighteen months and two
years. In the time of the Georges it
fell to one year. and now he reckoned
the average as eight months. During
the Hanoverian period the practice Of
feeding babies artdhcially became
somewhat common. Cows milk was
not then considered just the food for
a baby deprived of its mothers milk.
and the substance called pap" was
introduced through the cows horn.
Pap was a mixture of crust soaked
water and sugar. A baby that thrived
on it was usually one Of rare constitu-
ton. The nursing bottle with long
rubber stem succeeded the cows
horn, and by degrees the comparative
sanitary feeding bottle Of today was
introduced New York World.

Entirely Too Much Energy Wasted on
Roads From Town to Country.
AS to some products of the faSm,
there is a difference of 40 to so per
cent between the price that the grower
receives and the price that the con-
sumer pays. There are even cases in
which this price difference amounts to
300 per cent. Part of the loss is due
to a bad system of retail distribution.
as when dozen city milk wagons
travel over the same route, each de-
livering one bottle here and another
bottle there, when one wagon might as
well make all the deliveries along the
route. This same waste appears even
more markedly between the farm and
the town. How many fully loaded
wagons do you pass in driving to
town? From q dozen farms a dozen
packages Of butter, poultry or vege-
tables may go to town the same morn
ing, each in a different vehicle. Every
day a dozen parcels Of merchandise
are hauled out Of town along the same
road in a dozen different conveyances,
and the time and labor of eleven men
and eleven horses go for nothing. The
rural free delivery mail wagon now
comes to your house with load that
you could put in one or two bushel
baskets, and it goes back to town with
an even smaller load. Under present
conditions it looks as il the postoffice
department was not giving the farmer
his moneys worth.-Country Gentle

Sir Richard Newdigate, a seventeenth
century Warwickshire squire, whose

by one of his descendants, ruled his

Lemuel Adams, who was employed
as a coatmaker in the tailoring estab-

sumably In the last stages OF tubercu-
losis. He had fallen OF In weight,
was as thin as a match, as pale as

years and four months ago none Of
his friends ever expected to zee him
In the flesh again.
But Lem was iu town on Monday,
and he wasn't In a box, either. He
was here in citizens clothes, looking
as brown as an Indian, and feeling as
frisky as a colt From Huntington
Mr.. Adams went to Mont Alto, Frank
lin county, where he entered the state
institution for tubercular cases and be-
came an obedient patient under DR..
Johnston, the man in charge.
For three months Mr.. Adams occu-
pied bed In the hospital, where It
took mighty close watching to keep
body and soul together, but Mr.. Adams
won out, and in midsummer he was
sent to the camp where he did moth
ing but eat and sleep and breathe the
fresh air OF the South mountains. He
remained there eighteen months, and
was in the open all the tme. Many q
day he rose from his bed with the
snow on his pillows and blankets, but
he improved right along, and IN
March he was discharged.
Mr.. Adams is now selling Lightning
rods, which gives him constant out

sumo the tailoring business for fear Of
a recurrence Of his trouble. He now
eats like wood chopper, sieeps like

Mr.. Adams normal weight was 1872

Huntingdon in April 1909, he weighed

The splendid condition OF our friend

monument to the patience and skill Of
the men who have charge Of the state
institution at Mont Alto. DR.. H. G.

Mont Alto, and on Monday when he
gazed upon the shadow of two years
ago he could scarcely believe HI, own
