Good health in domestic animals is always
matter of primary Importance.


As bad health in parents transmit ten.
dency to disease in the offspring, it Is i'm
portant that every kind Of animal we desire
to continue on our farms should be kept Wig
orous and healthy.


As domestic animals are source Of hu.
man food, it is q matter Of great Importance
to preserve them in q healthy condition.
Diseased meat carries its qualities into the
stomachs Of its consumers. 1t is serious
object on which vegetarians urge against the
use Of animal food, that the artificial crcum-
stances in which animals live, and the bad
treatment they receive, renders them un-
healthy. ....


As an unhealthy animal cannot consume
food to as good advantage as well one, it
is again economical to avoid disease.


As comparative misery and discomfort ac'
company disease, il is humane Us well as
economical 10 see 10 it that the animals un-
der our care enjoy as far as possible their
creature comforts.


Each Of these circumstances is a sufficient
reason for guarding with scrupulOns care
the health of the animals we feed; but when
we derive milk from animals, it is Goubly
important that they are kept free from every
Objectionable faint. A sickly COW not only
yields diminished profit, but she yields
sickly milk, and sickly in higher degree than
her flesh.


If COW eats anything that has strong
or disagreeable odor, it appears in her milk.


II she eats anything medicinal, it comes out
in her milk.


If she is feverish, her milk shows il.


II she has sores about her, pus may be
found in her milk.


If she is fed on decayed or diseased food,
hor milk, since it is derived from her food,
will be imperfect. 1t is as impossible to
make good milk from bad food, as to make
good building from rotten timber.


If there is anything wrong about her, it
will appear in the milk, as that is an effec-
tive source Of casting filth from her organ.

Scatter the germs Of the beautiful
BY the wayside let them fall,
That the roses may spring by the cottage gate,
And the vine in the garden wall;
Cover the rough and rude of earth
With a veil Of leaves and flowers,
And mark with the opening bud and cup
The march Of summer hours.
Scatter the germs Of the beautiful
In the holy shrine Of home;
Letthe pure, and the fair, and the graceful there
In their loveliest lustre come;
Leave not lace oi deformty


In the temple Of the henrt,
But gather about its hearth the gems
or Nature and OF Art
Scatter the germs Of the beautiful


In the temples Of our Cod
The God who starred the uplified sky.


And f1owered the trampled sod;
When He built temple for Himself,


And home for His priestly ruco,
He reared each arch in symmetry,


And curved each line in grace.
Scatter the germs Of the beautiful


In the depths Of the human soul:
They shall bud and blossom and bear the fruit
While the endless ages ages roll
Plant with the flowers Of charity


The portals OF the tomb,
And the fair and pure about thy path


In Paradise shall bloom.

Jefferson, it is well know, was elected
President, on DO h occasions, by an al
most exclusively Southern vote. The
Louisville journal thus refers TO his point
ed rebuke, in advance, OF what the De-
mocracy now propose, in case Of SINH
lar triumph OF the North:


When Democrats talk OF secession in
the event OF the election OF The Republican
President, they do injustice to the patriot
ic injunctions which Thomas Jefferson
gave to the country in his Inaugural
speech, on March 4th, 1901, He spoke
of the contest Of opinion through which
the Union had then just passed, its anima-
tion OF discussion and Of exertions; which
had sometimes worn an aspect which
might impose on strangers unused to think
freely, and to write what they think, and
said: "But this being now decided by
the voice Of the Union, announced accord
ing to the rules of the Constitution, all
will OF course arrange themselves under
the will OF the law, and unite in common
efforts for the public good" Again as
TO divided opinions as 10 measures oi sale

noble truths: "But every difference OF

names brethren Of The same principle

would wish to dissolve this Union or to

Of the chest to the highest point Of the

A NOBLE SEETIMENT.--Some true
heart has given expression to generous
nature in the following sentiment:


"Never desert friend when enemies
gather around him-when sickness falls
on the heart-when the world is dark
and cherries is the time to try a friend.
They who turn from the scene OF distress,
betray their hypocrisy, and prove that
interest moves them. II you have a
friend who loves you and studies your
interest and happiness, be sure to sustain
him in adversely. Let him feel that his
former kindness is appreciated. and that
his love is not thrown away. Real fidel-
ity may be rare. but it exists in the heart
Who has not seen and felt its power:-
They deny lis worth who never loved q
