We ask all farmers desiring to have their names placed on the list, forward the same to the Chicago postmaster or your postmaster at once, stating the kind of produce they have for sale, which should be listed under three heads: butter, eggs and general produce. When a sufficient number Of names are received they will be compiled and printed and distributed upon application or by city carriers to persons who would likely make use of such lists;

Of Interest to Women Readers

AID FOR BEAMBTRESSES. Device for B«wing a Straight Line on a Machine. One* of the most difficult feats to perform on a sewing machine is to sew a straight line. Ordinarily any little deviation is not noticeable, but in the case of a hem or tuck the slightest irregularity is apparent At this point a Philadelphia man comes to. the rescue with a device for

gauging the width of a hem or tuck to a nicety and assuring two perfectly straight lines. This device consists of a scale attachment which projects across the bed plate for a sewing machine and in the line of feed. This attachment, which is in the form of a thin bar divided into inches and fractions thereof, has openings along it for screws, by which it is fastened to the plate. When a half-inch hem is needed the bar is set to that distance from the needle and by keeping the edge of the material to the mark on the scale, the width of the hem can be kept consistent with the accuracy which only a mechanical device secures.—Boston Post.

The nervous woman, heaven pity her. .She makes herself and everybody around her perfectly miserableSometimes there’s a cause for the nervousness, and thep she’s to be pitied, and sometimes it’s just a habit one gets into of being unreason--able and fussy, and generally looking on the blue side of everything. When the nervous system gets out of order the whole system lags in sympathy. The digestive system, the liver and the heart all refuse to do their work. Every nervous woman should eat five or six times a day. She should eat three meals, have a lunch between meals, and never omit the warm drink taken just before she goes to bed. Gentle exercise and work are as necessary to the woman with nerves as food and fresh air. An active interest in life will be her salvation, but generally the woman in such a condition thinks she isn’t interested in a thing in life, so she must keep at work until she develops an interest

A celebrated, physician has said: “If you wish never to be nervous live with reason, have a purpose in life and work for it; play joyously, strive not for the unattainable, be not annoyed by trifles, aim to attain neither great knowledge nor great riches, be not self-centered, but love the good and thy neighbor as thyself.” A celebrated and charming actress, whose age it would be rude to chronicle, but who still looks quite young, though she is a grandmother, gives the following prescription for the preservation of youth and beauty: “You must work until you are tired, sleep until you are rested, have plenty of fresh air, live in cool rooms, take a daily sponge bath and eat the simplest food.” *

Veils as Cause of Red Noses.

A prominent Manhattan physician has given voice to a definite protest against women wearing veils. This authority asserts it is one of the most injurious practices of which he has knowledge, and Insists red noses are the result of veils and nothing else. If there is anything a woman objects to it is a red or greasy nose, and these troubles, according to this physician, find their origin in the wearing of a veil on almost every occasion. The veil prevents the air striking the face as it would if the veil was off, and wheiTthe'face is heated the nose becomes greasy and almost invariably has a reddish appearance. This doctor would not even advise a veil to be worn on automobile rides, asserting a pair of “goggles,” merely to protect the eyes from dust and insects, is all that is required fpr a woman who cares about her complexion and general facial appearance,' and what women does notf

POULTRY

HOME-MADu BPRAY OUTFIT. May Be Used to Apply Lime and Kerosene to Hen House. The spray pump described below cost me sll. One of standard make and not so powerful was priced at $45. Any ordinary workman who is handy with tools could put my sprayer together in a day. It has proven so valuable to me that I wish to make it known to everybody. It was assembled from the following: A riding cultivator frame, pole, and wheels (old scrap iron) a good coal-oil barrel

Section Showing Arrangement of Agitator.

(price $1), a 3-inch cylinder cast-iron force pump ($6), a plain brass 2-inch cylinder and valves ($2), a piece of good 3-4-inch hose and a spraying nozzle ($2). Total cost, sll. After putting the above material together I was able to get easily a pressure of 150 pounds per square Inch, a very necessary prerequisite to apply the Bordeaux mixture with the right force.

Directions for assembling are as follows: Take the valves out of the cylinder of any castiron force pump. Replace these valves with the plain brass 2-inch cylinder and valves. Cut off with a hack saw the 2-inch cylinder to the right length to Just fill the cast cylinder. Fill in the space between cast cylinder and brass cylinder with plaster or cement, being sure that the brass cylinder is in the exact center of the cast cylinder. Attach the plunger valve of brass cylinder to the plunger piston of the force pump, and couple up the piston to the handle of the pump so as to get a full stroke. As only a small amount of liquid is needed in spraying, the object of this reduction of cylinder is to lessen the flow and increase the pressure. The reduction of 3 to 2 halves the flow and Rubles the pressure. Mount the pump on the barrel and the barrel on the riding cultivator frame. Make an agitatj|||fcs follows: In the barrel, near 'wW'bottom. on the end or head of thgaHjpL hang with a T-hinge a boariVurajfe of oak Ix6x2 feet to swing up and down. Connect the board with the pump plunger by a steel tod so that it will swing up and down with the stroke. The steel rod should enter the barrel through an opening made to pour in the liquid. I use this machine to spray my hen house with line and coal oil at the rate of 100 square feet per minute.

The Home-Made Sprayer Complete.

It makes a good job at whitewashing as well and is death to bugs and microbes on' my fruit trees. —Charles A. Umoselle, in Scientific American.

Cheap Flooring.

We will give a method of making a floor r for henhouse or other places where heavy animals are not to travel or teams to be driven over it, that is nearly as good and durable as a cement floor and is cheaper. It also makes a good walk around the house, in places where it will not be much driven over. Lay a foundation four to six inches deep with small stones or the cinders from the coal ashes, making as nearly a level surface as possible. 1 Then with the regular coal Bieve get the coal ashes and add a bushel of fresh slaked lime to each four bushels of the ashes. Mix well and let it stand a few days, thenkdd a gallon of salt, and moisten to a thin mortar so that when put on it will settle down into the stones. Spread two or three Inches thick, '‘hnd In a few days give another coating. The more coatings and thicker it is the longer it will last If It is broken by accident it can be mended in the same way. It will be ratproof and waterproof; and if the upper surface of last coat is smooth it can be kept clean, and absorbs no filth or odor.

Movable Roosts.

The henhouse should have movable roosts and dropping board. The dropping board should be made of smooth lumber for easy cleiuiing, anjj be placed not higher than three feet from the floor so that heavy fowls ■•may easily fly up to it and not injure themselves in jumping from It. The space on the floor under the dropping board will be clean and give more room for the fowls for exercise on cold or stormy days.

FILLED WITH ALL GOD’S FULLNESS

Wideness of God’s Mercy, Like the Wideness of the See.

demonstrate that Divine Justice, Wisdom, Love and Power are all enlisted on behalf of Adam and his race —to do us good, to save us from our sins and from the dead and dying condition In which we find ourselves, mentally, morally and physically. Every reasonable mind, he declared, should realize that God should be just and loving toward all His creatures. The thought of an angry, vindictive, torture-loving God should be rejected by every rational mind as ungodlike, demoniacal.

Doubtless , t thl6 would have been so if it were not that misconceptions of the Divine character have been impressed upon our minds from earliest childhood. These misconceptions, called “doctrines of devils,” were often taught us by those whom we properly loved and whose piety we reverenced, but who were themselves deceived. *“ It is high time, the Pastor declared, that more reverential, more loving, theological views were seen by mankind. The lack of this true theology is driving many-away from God and His Word into vain philosophies and “science falsely so-called”—Higher Crlti- . cism, Christian Science, Evolution,. Theosophy, etc. Measurements of Divine Character. Next was discussed the Inability of’ the human tongue to tell the wonderful measures of God’s Love. As St. Paul suggests in our text, the privilege - of appreciating these lengths, breadths, depths and heights, is granted only to< the saints of God, and to these only in/ proportion to their saintliness. Though beloved of the Lord and carefully cherished, a babe in Christ cannot comprehend these measurements of Divine character. When first he believed in the Lord, he saw something of Divine love and mercy, which influenced him and drew him to the exercise of fait)' t and the renouncement of sin. Appreciating the call, he then made full s» jrrender to the Lord in Response to 'the invitation, “I beseech you there/ ore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living / sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God,/which is your reasonable service.” Having thus done all in his‘ power, he received the begetting of tk.e Holy Spirit, not with outward demonstration, but with inward grace, and the enlightenment of the eyes/c it his understanding. From this W standpoint, he began to see/more of the measurements of Lovq/Dlvine. If living up to his privileges, he is hourlygrowing in grace, inyknowledge. In appreciation of the Divine character. It was then shown that the reception of Christ Into our hearts by faith brought strengthening by His Spirit in. the inner man—the new nature. As this Spirit of Christ dwelt in the Heart by faith, it rooted and grounded us In His character-likeness, which is the same as that of the Father—Love. This experience enables us to comprehend with all saints these measurements of our Creator’s character as others cannot. Yet, as the Apostle says, we who know only in part now will by and by, after our resurrection, change from earthly to Heavenly nature. see our Lord as He is and knoyr as we are known.

In our text, said the Pastor, which! applies only to the present life, the Apostle declares that even the saints cannot know the Love of Christ, because it “passeth knowledge.” But St Paul gives another intimation of how this keen appreciation of the glorious character of God comes to His consecrated saints—by their b&ng “filled with the fulness of God.” This rifieans. not merely the renouncement of sin and the consecration of ourselves to our Lord, but a filling with His Spirit His disposition—a gradual work. The Spirit of the Lord Is one of holiness, not only of separateness from sin, but or opposition to it; not only i of sympathy with righteousness, but of activity on its behalf; not only of putting away from our hearts every sympathy with the unfruitful works; of darkness, but also the receiving of that spirit condemns them by daily life and a word fitly spoken, not only by an appreciation of the fruits and graces of the .Spirit of God—meekness, gentleness, long-saffering. brotherly kindness, love—but so great am appreciation of them as to lndncp, na> more and more to stamp these gracious characteristics of Divinity upon ourown thoughts, words and deeds. Thus it is that we become “copies ot God’s dear Son.” and “meet for tin. inheritance of the saints In light.” on* derstanding the deep things of God

November 29. Pastor Russell’s discourse today threw great light on the Divine character, which is so little known. His text was St Paul’s prayer, as recorded in Ephe-sians~S:l7-19. The Pastor holds that a thorough study of the Scriptures will
