DANGERS OF GAS-LIGHT. A PtoxirUn-* Hints About the Boot Mr lb ad l»r Training flats "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is an old and timehonored saw. but it is one parents would do well to remember in the dayof croup, ’measles and diphtheria, said a prominent physician;, recently, to a reporter. One of the first safeguards against disease,is pure air and exercise. Nothing increases the activity of the lungs like bodily exercise, and in order that it may be beneficial to the whole system, it should be carried on in the open air. Some children are too young to leave the nursery, and It la her* that their' little lives arc very often imperiled by ignorant mothers ami nurses. Gas and parafine lamps shonld never he nsed In the nursery. In almost every room where-ga- is burned a plant will droop and die. Children arc Ukr plants; they require, above all things, put* air. light and sunshine—not gas light, but daylight, sunlight, and as much of it as possible. The nursery in my house ia the largest and sunniest room under the roof. In it there arc no heavy hang- . ings to hold the dust and obscure the light, nor are there any gas pipes. Gas ia injurious in many ways. Its light is too strong for a babe's eyes; it absorbs all the pure air in the room before the child can get a chance to inflate its little lungs w.th oxygen; its heat is enervating and there is alwrays the dangers of leakages. These leakages may be so small as to be imperceptible but ouite large enough to lie pernicious to

health. Turk}: pt water however, is a* almost essential as purity of atmosphere This can he had by boiling all the water necessary for the nursery before it is used. Such treatment removes all impurities and destroys their effect Another good thing to remember is the necessity that exists for fat in some form, as an element of children's diet. I have seen fathers and mothers, to whom the cost of the article was nothing deny their children sufficient butter to make their bread palatable. This is wrong. Butter should never be spared. Any parent .who denies their children this commodity deserves to pay the doctor—and to pay him well, too. Children who are given enough butter and other fats rarely suffer from necrosed joints and scrofulous glands, lossy nothing of marasmus tabes, mesenteric®. hydrocephalus and consumption. Besides the ounce of prevention matter parents would do well to bear in mind that other old saw which advise ns not to be "penny wise and pound foolish.'*—-V. .Waif and ExChange the Poultry Ground. One mistake in poultry keeping is in running the hens on the same plot of ground continually. I believe it to be a fact that they will not do as well in the same quarters after running there a few years. That has been my experience. and 'I have come to the conclusion that some cheap hot warm shelter and every few years to' an entirely new spot There is no doubt in mj mind that n small flock of hens well cared .for is good property. The farmer most look out for the little things as well as the Issuer ones, in order to be successful, and also be prudent and industrious. 5SS*rfSLKRSJfcES; ns well farm In New England will be praeperoM doubt—

THE GARFIELD FAMILY. Id five years there have been many 'Double changes in the Garfield family. There have been bo deaths, but the children of whom the father was so fond hare grown up. The two older boys hare began a course in the Colombia College Lav School, and Harry, the elder, has been teaching in some Eastern school. Both are grad autos of Williams College. James K. Garfield has been lltud>lng law with Judge Boynton in Cleveland. and is looked upon by friends oi his father m the son most like hiui in crery way. ' ' ; Ho has bis father's size, complexion, eyes and manner. Both soils are now men, and hare, it is said, great ambition. Miss Mol lie, the only daughter, is now a young woman taller than her mother, and has about finished her studies. The two younger sons, Abram and Irwin—the latter named for General Irwin McDowell—are old enough to enter a school on the Hudson, and left home for their duties there recently. They had never been awsy from home aline before. Sinee the preliminary education of Abram and Irwin in the Cleveland public schools tha mother has had no further desire to fire in a city. She has ordered her ms usion in Cleveland sold ami has decided to make her future home in Mentor. She has here added to the modest frame house of her husband a “Queen Anne" structure which cost *30,000. It is the most imposing home m the country, although the new part is behind and wholly subservient to the old house in which the President lived. Tfyis still remain* the head and front of the Garfield home, although remodeled to conform with the addition. A $30,000 addition to a $5,000 house ia a curiosity iu modern architecture, but sentiment for the past ambits illustrious dead inspired it. There are probably sixty room* in both new and old houses. They i ra all furnished in modern style and witu considerable elegance, and there is nn

mr of aristocracy about tlie interior which Garfield did not know in his own home. Although the house is far iu the country it has all the conveniences of a city home—in plumbing, gas-til-ting and steam-heating. A natural gas well has been bored on the farm, aud the yard is kept lighted day and night. Tlie main entrance ia through the old house. In the hall facing the door is ••Grandma" Garfield's old wall-sweep clock, which her husband brought home just sixty years ago. It is atill the “standard time" q' that house, and keeps on ticking jtlsi as it did when the President was born. To the left is the smoking room, which is a lounging room lor the family, Janies being their only one who smokes. To the right is the old parlor, now a reception room, ami rich m relies of the dead. It was once his study. Bibles ami other books are upon tbs tables, and the furniture is much the the same as when tike family left lor Washington.—Ladies' H’«Wd American Harvesting Machinery loAv trails. ^ Australian papers jest received announce the award of the National Gold Medal to Al imas, Miller * Co., of Akron. O., fot iheir Light Draft Buckeye Folding Under, u tbs result of the National fieid trial held n December last The following, cut from (he Melbourne .try** of December IU lssA giving particulars of. the contest, wilt'be of interest. The Argw tars: The field trial of reapers and binders in t-oanartinn with the National Show at Shcppartoa was held on Tuesday, the ltth intL, on Mr. Guthrie's farm, about two ■r.les from Khepparton. Owing to tbs pressure of harvest work, crops iu all directions being ripe, the attendance of farmers did not exceed ISO, but great interest was taken m the proceedings. As at the late.show; the judges placed the Hornsby machine flrst^jM'Cbrmick second and the Woods third; the “Buckeye" representative distued being left out in the cold, and demanded a field trial as provided by the rules, the MOrmiek aUo sharing iu the protest; so the prixes were held over pending the field trial The crop was ripe wheat, and‘the laud waa so rough that none of the machines could show very low cutting, and the Jolting over the hard clods was tolerably severe on horses, roa bines aad drivers. Two o'clock was the hour fixed for the trial, but aa the “Buckeye’’ waa the July machine than ready, a delay was caused by the Hornsby and M’Cornuck experts giving their machines a preliminary run In the adjoining block of crop, and a start was not made until a quarter past three The five judges gave great attention to their duties, and were ably seconded by the subcommittee, appointed by ihesociety and the secretary. Mr. Harold Bg&urnlcy. About taro acr?s were allotted to each machine, and they finished u> the fallowing order^“Buckeye.” 1 hour 10 minutes; Hornsby. 1 hour 10 minutes; M’l’ormick. 1 hour 3S minutes.' The two latter machines Were drawn by three horses each, while two lighter horses worked the “Buckeye” binder with equal ease. The decision of the judges-was based on the following scale of points: ,

Maximum point*. Hom«by M'OMTR!Ok The Judge* |M«ur* A. Kinkaid, H. Wilkinson. J. Grieve, J. II'In tyre and J.

He has acquired the coroted notoriety of being a bad Ban, sod a refusal to drink with him was,until recently, a deadly insult. Two mining engineers, a day or two ago, wen sitting in a salocn, and when Watson ordered orery body up to the bar one of them, a German named Winkler, politely declined. Mr. Watson produced a ponderous pistol, and, poking the muzzle into Winkler's face, he reared: uYer won't drink with me, yer Dutch tenderfoot! Reckon yer don’t know me. I’m a howling bliczard of the perarie, I am, and when I’m turned looae it’s dirty work deaniag up the ranch. I’m a gentleman, and you’ll drink whisky long o’ me or make a soft seat for the coroner.” Mr. Winkler shat one eye nnd squinted Jnto the pistol barrel, and quietly remarked : “Well, if you insist. I'm with you.” Getting up from the table he walked erer to the bar and stood beside Watson, who flourished the pistol once more under his nose and then returned it to the holster. Holding a whisky glass in his left hand, Winkler took from his Test pocket a draught man's flub, bird lead pencil, sharpened to a needle point. Turning to Three-toed Watson, he said: “Look here, sir! You are a bigger man than I am, and could whip me if you wanted to without any weapons. I didn’t want to drink, bat you pulled a pistol and would have shot me if 1 hadn’t stepped up here. I carry go arms, you see; nothing but a pencil.1’ Here Winkler poised the penc. which he grasped firmly with his right thumb and fingers, directly opposite Watson's face as though to call attention to the insignifloance of bis armory and emphasize his remarks, at the same time looking the bully stoddilg in the eye. “Sow, 1 want to toll yon.” be continued, “that you are an infernal scoundrel and a cow*rd, and I can lick you with a lead pencil,” and just as the bully reached for his gun the pencil darted forward, like a flash into his left eye, the point passing accurately through the pupil. Threetoed Watson yelled in agony and fell upon the floor, writhing and shrieking. Mr. Winkler put the pencil back into his rest pocket, replaced the• untested whisky upon the bar and went out. Watson may pull through if he has luck, but that eye will be of no mote use to him. and hit privilcge.i as a bad man are gone.

A Suffix That Dir* R*nL In addressing letters the use et the word “Esquire’’ seems to be gradually dying ont; yet It dies hard.' Pwhaps a tenth of all the letters addressed to men to-day bear this superfluity.

It ! crept into use when it had a meaning. ' Since that time it has been slowly dying j out.

Is This So? A tew years ago a little hook feu into ear hands, recounting the exjierieaoo of a certain prominent business man, from which if appeared that, sis with most Americans, too dose attention to business had broken hia health. The doctor said he could not live. He then stated that he used a certain article which effeetua.ly cured him, and “out of gratitude fair his own recovery he determined to derate a portion of his fortune to spreading its merits before the world.” As we read it are said: “Thin is evidently a shre ml expression of a commercial motive; It sounds well; It, reads well; bat many people will not believe it" In a tow years, however, that man got famous the world over. He gars several hundred thousand dollars to astronomical research, and hi a name became a household word in nearly every home In the Untied States. Hundreds of thousands of people to-day, without reservation, say that to this man alone they owe their lives. If ten men are collected together the chances are that if one man accidentally refers to Warner’s safe cure seven of them will be able to tell, from their own oxjierience or from the experience of their friends, of marvelous results which that remedy has wrought. nothing has ever been put on the market, we are told, the sale of which bos been so great and kept up so wonderfully, and this alone is evidence that merit is at the bottom of its popularity. In our files we find many on advertisement from this house. Some people have believed, hare used and have been cured; others have disbelieved, have not used, and died. The manufacturers have stated, as the result of their most careful investigations, that the condition of the kidneys is the key to health, and that they know if the kidneys are maintained in health by Warner’s Bate cure, ninoty-three per cent of diseased would disappear. The uric acid, or waste of the system, left in the blood, by what may be called constipated kidneys, blocks up the system and carries disease to every organ. This statement, made time and time again, is so fall of sense that it is now accepted as a scientific truth by insurance companies who reject millions or risks every ye ir If there is the least inactivity of these organs. The public is tired of the wrangles of this school sad of that school, and it is qsj:ck to reoogmre anything that has such conceded merit, and on this ground alone can we account for its extraordinary sales and popularity.
