Professor Sloane, in his new “Life of Napoleon” in the Century, gives a Careful analysis of the character of Napoleon in his youthful years. There was little hereditary morality in his nature, he says, and none had been inculcated by training. In his boyhood he was too Corsican for France, and in manhood he was too French for Corsica. He was, therefore, a citizen of the world, a man without a country. He was also without a profession, for he had neglected that of a soldier, and had failed both as an author and as a politician, f Professor Sloane thinks that the word “shiftiness” gives the best description of his character in youth. The value of the leaf tobacco exported bv this country in 1890 was >20,640.000. A pretty lively wake: The wake of the gruiser New York. J.

The Greatest Medical Discovery of the Age. KENNEDY’S MEDICAL JD|SGOVERY. DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS., Has discovered In one of our common pasture weeds a remedy that cures every kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula down to 3 common Pimple. He has tried it In over eleven hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases (both thunder humor). He has now in his possession over two hundred certificates of Its value, all within twenty miles of Boston. Send postal card for book. A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure Is warranted when the right quantity is taken. When the lungs are affected it causes shooting pains, like needles passing through them; the same with the Liver or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being stopped, and always disappears In a week after taking it. Read the label.

FARMS AND FARMERS.

THE MANURE SUPPLY. Manure on the farm is the store of plant food for the next year’s crops and it'varies in composition and quality according to the substances from which it is produced. Its value tan never exceed the substances used as food from whiqh the manure came, and greater value can t>nly be given it by the addition of some substance suitable for that purpose. When a farmer buys certain foods and converts the food into milk, through the agency of stock, he sells fertilizing substances in the milk, leaving an excess of some kinds which may not be required on the farm owing to the soil being fully supplied in that respect. What he should do is to aim to get back on the farm the materials which he sends away, and the easiest and bes t manner of so doing is to resort to the aid of fertilizers. Manure is not always a complete substance for plants, though such claim has been made in its favor. There is some antagonism on the part of farmers who feed large herds against lertilizers, but it only requires fair consideration of the subject on their part to show the importance of the judicious use of both manures and fertilizers in order to retain the fertility of the soil and increase the yield of crops. If manure contained all that may be required the farmer would have no use for artificial fertilizers, but it so happens that after the manure has been used

FRENCH BULL OF COMMON TYPE.—Farmers’ Review.

there is something left over which was in excess of the needs of the irops—perhaps potash, for instance —and should the farmer then procure sufficient nitrogen and phosphoric acid to balance the potash, he then gains largely by so doing, belause he brings within reach of the coming crops perfect food by simply itilizing his surplus potash, his olant food then being complete. Fertilizers are more soluble than barnyard manure, and give the plants an early start, enabling the roots to sooner yeach out and utilize all kinds of manure with fertilizers, ’or the reason that coarse, unrotted nanure is often spread on the land when it can be of no service until it iecomposes, and the more soluble fertilizer sustain'the crop to that >tate of growth, when the manure will have become suitable for the iperations of the rootlets, and thus perform service. Many crops are ost by the manure and being immeliately available, but by the judijious use of manures and fertilizers ;he crops not only secure an early itart and are fully supplied with plant-food from the beginning, but ihe manure itself is rendered more ivailable by being balanced or concerted into complete plant-food.

AMONG THE POULTRY. When beginning to keep poultry itart in a modest way and increase is conditions seem to warrant. Experience is the best teacher, and the ilphabet of chicken lore is quite as Ihoroughly and far more cheaply earned from a dozen fowls us from i hundred. As to the question what to go in lor some people find the most profit in broilers, others prefer eggs, while Jthers combine the two. The proper way to determine the matter is to ind out what your market wants ind try to supply it. Speaking gen?rally, the egg business is considered easier work than the broiler, (t is also more desirable if the poultryman is a considerable distance Irom his market. The most prolific layers are to be found among the Mediterranean, Hamburg and Poland varieties. If the poultry house is not warm and comfortable, no lingle combed fowls should be kept. TWO NEGLECTED CROPS. Peas and beans are two neglected :rops, as they are not grown on many farms, where they could be nade profitable. It is possible to <row two crops—early peas and beans later—on the same ground. Beans are always salable at good prices, and the straw of both peas ind beans may be utilized as bedding or for sheep to pick over. The best early peas are grown on land that is heavily manured in the fall ar in winter, so as to turn it under my warm spell when the frost is out if the ground.

FOOD FOR HOGS. Swill is readily eaten by swine, fven when it-is so fermented as to be sour, but hogs will keep in better condition on more wholesome food. Wheat, eorn and oats, ground together, scalded, with clover hay, cut fine, the whole made into a somewhat sloppy mass, will be just as theap as swill and far more whole-

some; Hog cholera and other diseases may sometimes be traced to the filthy food which the hogs art compelled to eat because they cannot procure anything better. A writer says it is hardly possible to overfeed the hog with corn if he has first had a liberal feed of pumpkins. We never knew one to eat too many pumpkins. SHOEING HORSES. The United States army regulations give the following directions for shoeing horses: “In preparing the horse’s foot for the shoe do not touch with the knife the frog, sole or bars. In removing surplus growth on that part of the foot which is the seat of the shoe, use the cutting pincers and rasp, arid not the knife. The shoeing knife may be used, if necessary, in using the top clip. Opening the heels or making a cut in the angle of the wall at the heel must not be allowed. The rasp may be used upon the part of the foot when necessary, and the same applies to the pegs. No cutting with the knife is permitted; the rasp alone is necessary. Flat-footed horses should be treated as the necessity of each case may require. In forging the shoe to fit the foot be careful that the shoe is fitted to and follows the circumference of the foot clear around to the heels of the foot, as is frequently done. Care must be used that the shoe is not fitted too small, the outside surface of the wall being then rasped down to make the foot short to fit *the shoe, as often happens, The hot shoe must not be

i applied to the horse’s foot under any circumstances. Make the upper or : foot surface of the shoe perfectly flat so as to give it a level bearing. A shoe with a concave ground surface i. should be used.” > ALL OVER THE FARM. Dig up the canna roots, separate them and wrap them in brown paper. Then place them in a cold place, but not tfhere they will become frozen. ;, Glean off the clusters of eggs on limbs of the apple trees and there will be fewer caterpillars to destroy next spring. r Experiments favor the continuance of sods in orchards during the ’ winter. While fall plowing is an advantage in many cases, the sod of ' the orchard should not.be turned until spring. Candy to feed bees on in winter is made by, gradually stirring six I pounds of loaf sugar into about three quarters of a pint of boiling water, the whole kept boiling and constantly stirred to prevent burning. | Bank up all fall planted trees with earth, so as to protect from frosts in the winter and insects in early spring. By banking up the I trees they will also be less liable to injury from high winds.

After Forty Years.

San Francisso Post. Several months ago Gen. McCook paid a visit to Santa Fe with some railroad officials. On arriving at Santa Fe his first inquiry was forone Lucian Stewart. He was told that Stewart was in the hospital, awaiting death from old age. “Then he may die to-night, and I will see him first,” the General quietly remarked. And then, with his aid, he went directly to tlte hospital, and was quickly by the cot of the old man. “Stewart, don’t you know me?” he inquired in a tender way, at the same time extending his land. Stewart did not reply for fully one minute, all the time holding the General’s hand and scanning his features. At last a ray of light broke over his countenance, and, with a smile, he said, “Yes, I remember you. You are the young lieutenant who never smoked before breakfast." Here the two broke into a laugh, the heartiest laugh, perhaps, the old invalid had enjoyed for a decade. Stewart had been the chief of scouts when, forty years ago, McCook was fighting Apaches on the frontier. The General had not seen him since the war, but showed his deep regard for his old friends by remembering so humble a comrade. The remark of the old scout referred to a time when McCook, then a lieutenant, and adetail under Col. St. Vrain, were chasing the Apaches. They had struck a hot trail, and had been on it thirty-six hours without food. Fearing to wait to prepare a meal, for every minute was then precious, so clpse was the trail, Col. St. Vrain determined to keep on the march. Realizing the condition of his men and officers, he had given permission for men to partake of such rations as they could in the saddle, and turning to his lieutenant, he remarked: “McCook, have a cigar?" “No, thank ydu, sir," woe the quick reply, “I never smoke before breakfast,"

A Hypnotized Town.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch, The town of Abingdon, 111., has been forced to protect herself from hypnotism. What would have finally become of the good people of Abingdon if the Town Council, backed by’Mayor Helderfast, had not passed an ordinance prohibiting the practice of hypnotism under a penalty of $25 fbr each’offense, it is difficult to say. All the trouble came of a series of lectures delivered in the town, the lecturer telling his hearers that every one had hypnotic power, and advising its general practice. It is asserted that the people became crazy. Many acted as if bewitched; others believed themselves under hypnotic control; people religiously inclined suffered from spiritual exaltation; and, in fine, business was largely suspended in Abingdon and hypnotism flourished. One of the worst features of this Abingdon hypnotism was the scapdalous conduct of the young men and women of the place, who, pretending to have been hypnotized, threw off all restraints and behaved in the most shocking manner. The method resorted to by the Illinois TownOouncil to stamp out hypnotism is worthy of consideration. Hypnotism threatens to become a dangerous fad. Every offender, to prove his innocence, has only to put in the plea that he has been hypnotized. By prompt application of law to both hypnotizer and hypnotizee, no doubt the delusion will soon pass away. He who is hypnotized into violations of the law will have to be unhypnotized by legal process. He willsoon be taught to so exercise his will as to defy the hypnotizer.

Doctors for Dolls

New York Mail and Express. “Dolls’ Hospital” was the sign that arrested my eyes on an uptown street, and I immediately penetrated the dark, narrow doorway to learn something about the dolls whose ailments necessitated hospital treatment. In this way I discovered a character quite in keeping with Dickens' dolls’ dressmaker—little Miss Wren. A clock maker, in clock cobbler’s outfit, was in front, but in the rear of the dingy little shop I found a small, brown eyed woman who followed the humane business of doctoring the dolls brought to her in every stage of dilapidation. There were dolls without heads, who would probably leave her hands very much wiser looking than ever before —and it set me wishing we could have the choice of fresh heads when the old ones are well worn out with fret and worry. Dolls without legs came to the little brown eyed woman, who makes them over brand new, Dolls with chipped fingers and toes can there take their anguish. It was really a pathetic exposition of the ills dolls are heir to, and the wise doll doctress told me she made a most satisfactory living from her odd calling.

Up in the mountain counties of Kentucky, where a feud is continually on band, and where human blood flows as free as water, a remarkable thing has recently happened, says the Carlisle County News. In one of the neighborhoods where they kill men for the fun there is in it, it is said that within a period of a week there were six sets of triplets born. The population isn’t,.likely to decrease verv much up there, notwithstanding the feuds.

The hew law requiring all enlisted men of the army to be citizens of the United States has begun to workresults in this direction. Many of the soldiers have begun to realize what the new law means, and in anticipation of their reenlistment have taken steps to make themselves eligible, About a half hundred of those stationed at Fortress Monroe, recently, obtained leave of absence and went up to Norfolk, where the Unitea States District Court was in session, and took out their naturalization papers.

“You have been in the army a great many years, but I have not heard of you capturing anything,” said an old Washington coquette to a somewhat venerable officer of the army. “You ought to have a fellow feeling for me,” was the reply. “How so?” “Because we both know what it is to grow old without making any conq ues ts. ” Madras gingham squares are liked for covering pillows that are in constant use, as they can be washed, and even boiled, without changing the colors.

The Unexpected Discharge of a Cannon

Close by would not have a more disturbing effect upon nerves which are vigorous than an ordinary noise upon those that are weak and unstrung. As a nervine, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is unrivalled. By promoting digestion and assimilation they overcome that gastric disorder, which is the most prolific cause of nervous debility and, which, so long as it exists, defeats in large measure the action of sedatives and opiates. Such remedies, moreover, necessitate the use of increasing doses, and finally cease to act altogether, except in dangerous quantities. They never reach the fountain head of the trouble, and quiet the nerves only by paralyzing them. Equally objectionable are fiery unmedicated alcoholic stimulants. Kidney, bladder and liver trouble, malaria, constipation and rheumatism are relieved by the Bitters, which also promotes appetite and nightly repose. Little slots for nickels. Open-mouthed but dumb.
