Weak Women To weak and ailing women, there la at least one War to help. But with that war. two treatments, must bo combined. One is local, one is constitutional, but both are important, both essential. Dr. Shoop’s Night Cure is the Local. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative, the Constitutional. The former—Dr. Shoop’s Night Cure—is a topical mucous membrane suppository remedy, while Dr. Shoop’s Restorative is wholly an internal treatment. The Restorative reaches throughout the entire system, seeking the repair of all nerve, all tissue, and all blood ailments. The ’Night Cure", as its name implies, does its work while you sleep. It soothes sore and inflamed mucous surfaces, heals local weaknesses and discharges, while the Restorative, eases nervous excitement, gives renewed vigor and ambition, builds up wasted tissues, bringing about renewed Strength, vigor, and energy. Take Dr. Shoop’s Restorative—Tablets or Liquid—as a general tonic to the system. For positive local help, use as well Dr. Shoop’s Night Cure A. F. LONG. A“Bilious Attack?* Symptoms. Sour stomach, taste in mouth, sick headache, sallow complexion, the world your enemy. Cause. Constipation, inactive liver, overflow of bile into the system. Relief.

THE CZAR’S KITCHENS. Teats to Prevent Poisoned Food Reaching the Royal Table. No chef In all the world occupies a more peculiar position than M. Eugene Kratz, the little known but august cordon bleu who presides in the imperial kitchens of the Great White Czar This remarkable man draws a salary rather larger than that of the president of the United States—about $55,000 a year—and has paramount control of the palace kitchens in all the homes of the imperial family, from Peterhof, the Anitchkoff, the Winter palace, the Tsarskoe-Selo, all the way to Livadia, in the Crimea. Six times a year M. Kratz makes the round of all the Imperial kitchens throughout the empire, and his peculiar position may be realized from the fact that his social rank equals that of a general in the Russian army. And an army this wonderful chef certainly commands, with absolute authority—an army whose “weapons” are not the less important for being mere pots and pans. Of course a culinary artist of such rank as M. Kratz does little or nothing at all with his own hands, but is rather an inventive genius, titillating the palate of the emperor and his august guests, for when the autocrat of all the Russias wearies of Russian, French, Italian and English dishes he must be tried with some fantasy such as chicken gumbo as made in New Orleans or some of the delightful sweet dishes of the Balkan states and Turkey. It is well known that in the kitchens of the czar most elaborate tasting ceremonies are gone throhgh, and when the czar is in residence at Peterhof, a palace about half an hour distant from the capital, not only M. Kratz himself, but also his under chefs and certain high officials of the imperial army, are called in to taste every dish that goes to the emperor’s table, after which experiment a reasonable time is permitted to elapse to see whether or not the tasters are poisoned. This curious survival of other days comes down from the time of Ivan the Terrible.—St Louis Post-Dispatch.

A New Pharmacy Precaution.

With the bottle of medicine the druggist handed out a slip of paper. “What is that?” asked the customer. “A list of the things you should not eat while taking this medicine,” said the druggist. “Possibly the doctor neglected to give you instructions about that. Very often the doctors do forget Druggists used to be equally careless, and most of them are yet, but we finally came to be accused of so many mistakes of which we were guiltless that in order to save our own reputation and that of the drug trade In general we established a school of dietetics. In so many cases where complaints were made about the medicine not having the desired effect we were accused of using inferior drugs, whereas it was injudicious eating that caused the evil results.”—Chicago Inter Ocean.

Employs Deaf Mutes Only.

Over on New York’s east side a prosperous merchant engaged in the bottling Industry makes a specialty of employing deaf mutes In bls establishment These silent hands are reported to be more Industrious than Is usually the experience with unafflicted labor. On an average, the deaf mute bottler earns higher wages than his fellow workman, and he is generally more economical than the latter. Both in perceptive and receptive faculties the deaf mutes are said to excel as compared with those not so handicapped. In point of sobriety, the nonhearing, nonspeaking brother Is reputed to set an enviable example. New York Press.

A Horse With an Annuity.

A horse with an income is King, formerly owned by the late George C. Watts. He is now passing his old age on a farm on a monthly allowance of SISQ left, him bi_hta_fonne£ owner.

Under the will of Mr. Watts, King was to have an allowance of S2OO a year during the period of his usefulness and after that an income of $l5O a month until his death. Billy, a pet dog, also received an allowance, but he died last February. Mr. Watts left an estate of SIOO,OOO, of which a part will go to charity, but the division of the estate has been delayed pending the death of the horse. King is twentyone years old.—Chicago Tribune.

Ambergris.

Ambergris is worth at present £6 ss. an ounce. Last year there was used about £120,000 worth of this peculiar substance in the manufacture of perfumes. It is a fatty substance of an ashy gray color with red or yellow streaks in it and Is found floating on the sea or taken by whale fishers from the carcass of the sperm whale.

The War Airship.

It is a sweet dream, but it will never come true. Ilmnahity will forbid. The week after the empyrean warship is constructed, the Saturday Evening Post thinks, the powers will meet at The Hague and agree that nothing more harmful than pamphlets shall be dropped from the flying monster.

SHORT STORIES.

Four men out of six smoke. R. P. Roblin, premier of Manitoba, has announced that the government will soon begin the construction of a thousand, miles of telephone and telegraph lines. The house at Litchfield, Conn., in which Judge Tappan Reeve started the first law school In this country in 1774 has been sold at auction to parties who will see that It is preserved for its historical value. The prized possession of Postmaster E. W. Jones of Riverpont, R. 1., is Ted, a cat that tips the scales at nineteen and a half pounds and is able to reach a height of more than three feet when standing on. his hind feet. Joseph Doctorovltg, a teacher of Hebrew and a student of old Jewish institutions, has put on exhibition in New York a complete reproduction of the temple at Jerusalem. It is fifteen feet square and includes the several courts and palaces of the priests.

NEW YORK CITY.

Although New York city owns many buildings, it pays nearly SI,OOO a day in rents. Builders in New York city invest $500,000 each day in land and new houses for apartment dwellers. There Is an average of one child killed every three days in New York city by being run over by vehicles. New street. New York city, is anything but new. It was the first street opened by the English after taking possession of New Amsterdam and was so called on that account. New York city’s high pressure salt water system win as first installed cost $5,300,000. It will have seventy eight miles of mains, with 2,012 hydrants, anjl will give head enough to extinguish fires without the direct aid of engines.—New York Herald.

The Myrtle Warbler.

Buch r beauty as he is! He wears a little yellow cap. Two yellow- side patches are his. Another yellow patch is down on his back. His coat is of a lovely blue slats color. He is the first of the warblers to bs seen in the spring. His smart waistcoat shades from black above to white. He passes the heated season from northern New England northward. Though Seen on the Pacific coast, this lovely bird prefers eastern North America. This warbler (he’s more than a singer) will return from Canada in the fall in time to feast upon the myrtle wag berries.—St Louis Republic.

OVERCROWDING.

One of the Greatest Evils In the Rearing of Doqgestic Poultry. There are many poultry keepens who provide their fowls with a large enough house, but have only sufficient land to accommodate half or a quarter the number of fowls that are crowded on to It, while I have seen scores of cases where both houses and runs were of astonishingly small dimensions —ln fact, so small that the idea of keeping poultry in them was absurd, writes George Scott of Pudsey, Yorkshire, England, in American Poultry Journal. Now, it Is impossible to state any hard and fast rules as regards the size of a poultry house or run requisite for a certain number of fowls, but it may be roughly stated that In building a fowlhouse about five square feet of floor space should be allowed for every adult fowl. This estimate Is liable to modifications, according to the size of the fowls and the height of the house. the open fronted or fresh air type of poultry house half this amount of floor space will be sufficient for each fowl. In all cases It is advisable to give fowls as much liberty as possible, for they are never at their best when kept In confinement. In many cases, however, this course is Inadmissible, and under these circumstances at least fifty square feet of ground should be allowed for each fowl, and a breed should be kept which Is best able to stand confinement, for the varieties differ considerably In this respect. Of course it is essential for fowls to be confined during the breeding season and, provided the runs are large enough or the number of fowls In each run small enough, all will be well, but It is the packing and jamming of a large number of fowls into a small run that works such havoc among the birds and their progeny, overcrowding being responsible for more than half the diseases to which poultry are subject.

Partridge Plymouth Rock Hen.

The cut herewith shows the female of a new variety which, unless all signs fail, is destined to become very popular. It Is the Partridge Plymouth

Rock. This variety of the Rock is just the same in every respect as the Barred variety, excepting that the feathers have the markings of the Partridge Cochin, which many persons contend is the most beautiful plumage seen on any domestic fowls.

A Rat Exterminator.

A subscriber of Reliable Poultry Journal suggests the following to rid the premises of rats: Make a small tin trough closed at one end. Insert this trough, closed end first, in the rat hole, leaving the other end exposed. Pour about a teaspoonful of chloride of sulphur or sulphuric acid Into the trough, then three or four teaspoonfuls of ammonia water and stop the hole up with a rag or anything that is convenient, ▲wait results with a stick. The rats will run out of the hole In about ten seconds after the operation in a very tired condition. They are easily killed, as they cannot run either fast or far after the dose.

White Feathers In Brown Leghorns.

The subject of white feathers in Brown Leghorns is quite an exhaustive one. There are many reasons for it besides heredity. <t often occurs when the parent stock showed no trace of it The appearance of white is no sign of impurity, but ft is a very objectionable feature, as It is a disqualification according to the Standard of Perfection. The fact that chicks show white does not indicate that they will when mature have white feathers, though they may.

Egg Eating Hons.

Egg eating is one of the worst habits that fowls can acquire, and it is almost impossible to break them of it This habit is generally acquired during the winter or early spring and is due to close confinement and lack of something else to do. Where fowls are kept busy continuously this habit Is unknown. All nests should be placed as much in the dark as possible and plenty of china nest eggs supplied.

Food For Ducklings.

Stale bread moistened and mixed with sand makes a good food for young ducks. Cornmeal can also be glwn. After three or .four weeks they can be fed cracked corn. Animal food to not absolutely necessary, although a certain amount will assist the growth.
