ECZEMA ON BACK AND CHEST

Pierson, n. Dakota--"The eczema
started on my scalp. 1t finally went
on to the back of my neck, then on to
my back, arms and chest. 1t broke
out in pimpIes first and then seemed
to run together in some places, max
ing a sore about the size of dime.
At times the itching and burning were
so intense that it seemed unbearable.
The more 1 scratched it the worse it
became, and there would be a slight
discharge from it, especially on my
scalp, so as to make my hair matted
and sticky close to the scalp. The
hair was dry, Ifeless and thin. Ny
hair was falling so terribly that I had
begun to despair of ever finding re-
lief. Ny clothing irritated the erup-
ton on my back. The affected parts
were almost a solid scab.

London.-Doctor Burney and his
family moved into Newton's old resi-
dence in 1874, remaining there 20
years. By common consent it was
called Newton house. Here his daugh-
ter Fanny afterwards Madame d'Arb-
Iay) wrote the novel, "Evelina; or, A
Young Lady's Entrance Into the
World" published anonymously in
ITS. The observatory, with its win
dows OF small oId-fashioned panes Of
glass and leaden roof, which sur
mounted the building, remained in the
same simple state in which it had been
left by Sir Isaac. 1t was priced by
Burney, kept in repair, and shown to
his friends with enthusiasm. For
Fanny Burney it was my favorite sit
ting-place, where 1 can retire to read
Or write any Of my private fancies or
vagaries." In Burney's day Newton
house was the rendezvous of a literary,
musical and artistic coterie Garrick
was a welcome visitor, and Sir Joshua
Reynolds was wont to come round
from his house hard by in Leicester
Fields. Doctor Johnson was a caller.

came home last night, sends his re

serving to illustrate its vicissitudes
are extant. In the European Magazine

his fruit has the best possible care
from picking time until the last bar
rel is sold.
To make the most out of the pres
ent crop of apples, the grower on no
matter how small scale, must use
those up-to-date/ methods of picking
and packing that have enabled the
commercial grower to reduce the cost
of marketing his crop to a minimum.
He must offer the market packages
of uniform fruit. The fruit in any
package should be uniform in both
color and size. 1t is true that the
early varieties will not be well col
ored nor will they be of a good mar
ketable size. The later varieties may
have both with the most favorable
weather conditions; though we hardly
hope that the apples will.be as well
colored as they were last year.
Though we have nothing like the OPP
portunity we had last year to pack
well colored fruit, each package can
contain fruits of one size and, as
nearly as possible, one color. Labor
at picking time wilP be more easily
obtained than it was last. year and
there will be less excuse for the fail
ure of the grower to pack his own
fruit If help is short in any locality.
it may be a good plan to use the
available help to pick, placing the
apples in unheaded barrels or piling
them on the ground to be graded and
packed at the owners leisure.
1t has, often been said that good
fruit will sell itself, but good fruit
needs to be attractively packed in at
tractive packages to become a good
salesman. 1t is impossible for the
packer, no matter how expert he may
be, to attractively pack fruit of sew
eral different sizes He may, by
proper, uniform grading, make three
packages of first grade fruit out of
three packages of rather poor second
grade apples. A package of all 2A-
inch apples will easily go for first
grade fruit, but if the package is a
mixture of "a, 21k and 3-inch apples.
a buyer would look at them several
times before he would consent to take
them as second grade.
