Can’t Miss It So many ailments are purely nervous affections, that you can hardly miss it if you try Dr. Miles’ Nervine. It restores nervous energy—and through its invigorating influence upon the nervous system, the organs are strengthened. The heart action is better; digestion improved, the sluggish condition overcome, and healthy activity re-established.* IDt. Miles’ Nervine Is worth Its -weight in gold to me. I did not know what ailed me. I had a good physician but got no relief. I could not eat, sleep, work, sit or stand- I was nearly crazy. One day I picked up a paper and the first thing that met my eyes was an advertisement of Dr. Mlles’ Nervine, I concluded to try it and let the doctor go, and I did so, After taking two bottles I could dress myself. Then I began taking Dr. Mlles’ Heart Cure and now I can work and go out, and liave told many the benefit I have received from these remedies and several of them have been cured by it since. I am fifty-nine years old and pretty good yet’ r ANNA R. PALMER, Lewistown, Pa. Dr. Miles' Nervine It sold by your druggist, who will guarantee that the first bottle will benefit.

SORROW WITH A PURPOSE.

Toara Secured a Bust Hut Failed to Win a Canvas. Some months ago the King of England received at his place at Sanuringham the King of Greece, who was accompanied by one of his young, aides-de-camp. As Edward VII. was doing the honors, exhibiting his gallery, and his guest was admiring a bust of a young woman, the charming work of the sculptor Thornycrdft, the King was much surprised at an explosion, of sobs. It was the young Captain, who was weeping and who excused himself In these words: “Will your Majesty pardon me? This bust is the perfect image of a sister whom I loved most tenderly.' It recalls to me a loss, alas! never to be forgotten.” “In that case,” responded the King, greatly moved, “permit me to offer it to you.’’ And through the care of Sir Francis Knollys the marble was transported to the apartment of this sorrowing brother. Time passed. The young Captain returned to London. Quite recently he visited the admirable collection of the Duke of Cambridge and recognised with renewed sorrow in a canvas of Burne-Jones the features of the angel he had lost. The Duke perhaps would have had the same generosity as king Edward but some one was present who had witnessed the scene at Sandringham. So the Ingenious Greek did not this time carry away any family portrait to his country.—Le Cri de Paris.

Law of Life.

What is the true law of our moral life? That is the question which every age sets itself to and to the solution of which every contribution is welcome. And the answer that George Eliot gives is that there is a reign of law in the moral as well as in the physical world, and that this law cannot be broken with impunity. “A a man soweth so shall he also reap.” ,

The Worst Load.

The worst load a man can carry is that of habits begotten of evil passions—that growing pile of sensuous deeds, which in their accumulation, cohere finally into a mass, devil possessed which sits between his shoulders, over-weighing all else in kind, and driving him ruthlessly, fatefully on the road downward. Cnristian World. t ,•

Dismal Professions.

The question was recently asked in a newspaper, “What is the most dismal of professions?” Among those that occurred to us as having a claim to be so considered were grave digging, scavenging, listening to Parliamentary orations through SC allnight sitting, and the writing Of poems—or articles—that nobody reads. The washing of dishes may be made interesting if done scientifically. British Medical Journal.

Eyesight and Crime.

Many criminate have suffered from eye-stratn or some Other defect of vision which prevented the exercise of complete self-control. In consquence, habits of drug-taking and alcoholic excess were formed and the moral sense so perverted that crimes of greater or lesser magnitude wen committed. —Cassell’s Magazine.

The Lure of the City.

City life is like an intoxicant. Once one becomes familiar with the teeming life, the endless variety, the free play of brain and thought, to go back to the stillness of a rural community is like the sudden return to water as a drink after a generous enjoyment of alcohol. —Irish Homestead.

Crimean War.

But for its stirring memories, and better still, its awakening of longdormant national energy and martial spirit, one could wish that the sanguinary Crimean conflict had not been fought at all. —Sir Horace flumbold In the National Review.

Watch For the Blind.

Death From Nose Bleed.

Arthur Lapalme, a saloon proprietor, aged 25, le dead at Marquette Hospital from nose bleed. For the last three months he has been afflicted. The flow was at irregular intervals, but with an Increase in quantity, and Lapalme suffered lessening of the Intervals until death resulted.

Abstaining Provosts.

A generation ago water-drinking occupants ot civil chairs were very rare in Scotland. Total abstainers, however, can claim as a result of the recent elections that 46 Scottish burgs are presided over by abstaining provosts. The list includes Sir William Bisland. Bart, lord provost of Glasgow. and Lord Provost Gibson, Edinburgh.

CORN AS A FEED FOR HENS.

Stimulates Egg Laying and Keeps Hen in Good Condition. On the average farm, the cheapest ration is usually corn, and I know of nothing the average hen will prefer for her mainstay In cold weather. Under ordinary farm conditions, the heh is cheaply wintered when she has just corn enough to keep her in good flesh—-a little fat, but not overfat—and ready to hunt the barnyard over on mild days for any waste grains from other farm stock. In her corn supply should be Included all the moldy and damaged ears, for several reasons. First, she takes it a grain at a time, and so need not eat any which is totally unfit, as other animals may do. Second, some observers have thought that their hens actually did better on damaged corn than on sound grain, probably because of its softness, and since even the damaged grain should be put to some use, the hen which is on a maintenance ration should have a fair trial as to her ability to get more out of it than animals to which it is evidently distasteful. It may sometimes happen that some other grain, or even some nitrogenous substance like skim milk, may be available and even cheaper than corn, and in this case winter eggs may be laid whether or no, and if so, will be had at the greatest possible percentage of profit The point is that the average farmer cannot •afford to buy nitrogenous foods to stimulate egg laying under the conditions which normally surround him in winter. The hen which has had enough corn, but not too much, is usually in good shape to give a large and profitable yield as soon as nature gives the hint by sending up the first blades of grass, Or even before.

Poultry House Ventilation.

It is a very difficult matter to ventilate a poultry house without causing draughts of air on the fowls at night. The proper mode Is to keep thg poultry house clean, leave the doors open during the day, and shut the house at night, allowing no ventilation at all. We have found that it is very difficult to keep the fresh alf froifi coming in, and itJs a Fact that Ihtihy takS pains to render the poultry housS whrffi gfia comfortable, by stopping all cracks and crevices, and by lining the house with paper, make a hole in the roof or gable ends, which they style a "ventilator,” and thus let in more cold than they desire. .. Xhere is not a~s much foul air jn a poultry house as may be supposed. The severe cold renders all gases hQavy, and less volatile matter exists. JPUI poultry house with smoke, and close the door; then step outside and notice where it escapes. You yvill at once be convinced that you need no “ventilator/’ and that despite all our precautions, your house is full of air holes that you cannot easily close, and your birds are liable to roup and other disease. ;

A Home Made Fruit Ladder.

A handy fruit ladder can easily be made with just a Common ladder and two long stout props. The props should be provided with forks at the the ends which fit over the rungs of the ladder. . The proper arrange-

ments of the props in order to secure a firm ladder is shown in the cut. The advantage of this form of fruit ladder, over the coknmon step-ladder is that by means of the movable props the ladder can be placed in any desirable position without disturbing the branches or fruit.

Shipping Poultry Undrawn.

Practically all dressed poultry should be shipped to market undrawn. It is claimed that it keeps much better. The basis for this claim is that the incision in a drawn fowl readily admits molds and germs of different kinds into the body, where they find ideal conditions for rapid multiplication. The cavity is dark, damp and not easily accessible and frequently a drawn bird which outwardly appears all right is really unfit for food. As it requires considerable time to draw the birds contained in an ordinary shipment and there is a decided loss in weight as well, stock should be shipped undrawn.

Planting the Potato.

Many experiments have been made to ascertain the best depth for ptarjing. The results, with some exceptions, favor planting not less than four inches deep. The. favorable effects of deep planting were especially marked on well prepared, friable soil and in dry seasons. Very deep planting is open to objection because of the' Increased labor of harvesting and the danger of a deficient stand when weather coddlttons are unfavorable. Very shallow planting todueee the yield and tajwroa the Quality et ti*<wop.

PROF. H. A. HOWELL, OF HAVANA, CUBA, RECOMMENDS CHAMBERLAIN’S COUGH REMEDY. “As long ago as I can remember my mother was a faithful user of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy but neva. i In my life have I realized its true valuei until now writes Prof. H. A. Howell of Howell’s American School Havana, Cuba. “On the night of February 3rd our baby was taken sick with a very severe cold; the next day was worse and the following night his condition was desperate. He could not lie down and it was necessary to have him in the arms every moment Even then his breathing was difficult. I did not think he would live until morning. At last I thought of my mother’s remedy, Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, which we gave and it afforded prompt rellefand now three days later he has fully recovered. Under the circumstances I would not hesitate a moment in saying that Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and that only, saved the life of our dear little boy. For sale by B. F. Fendig.
