It is an axiom that any plant, however

It is a distortion to most horses to

is deceived by such style.

not that corn is not good for

we hear so much about its deleterious ef¬

The ordinary farmer who raises more
than one breed each of horses, cuttle,
sheep, swine or poultry, is apt to lose
money; and if he does not raise the best of ,
each kind, he does not make so much
money as lie might.

It is the opinion of Sir J. B. Tjiwcs,
whose opinions upon sueh matters are en¬
titled to and receive much weight, that
the best time to cut grass, cither for hay
of or ensilage purposes, is when the majority
grasses arc in flower. He thinks
nothing is gained by waiting longer, his
reason for such belief being that in the
case of most of the grasses the seed
formed is exceedingly light and the food
which it contains is exceedingly small.
Professor J. Hayes Panton, of the Ag¬
ricultural College, of Ontario, suggests
remedies for potato rot, which we con¬
dense as follows: Dig as soon as brown
spots appear. Put in cold, dry place af¬
ter all affected digging. Grow early varieties. Burn
stalks. Use only good seed.
Get seed from unaffected districts. Don’t
plant in a field in which rot occurred the
eurevious year. Avoid planting upon a
heavy clay soil, but prefer a light and
dry one.

A Persian quack.
Dr. Wills, an Englishman residing in
Persia, the accepted an invitation to dine at
house of Mirza M- Kahn, a
begun wealthy grandee, The meal had hardly
when one of the guests, S
Kahn, entered u pon a long list of his nil
ments for the benefit of the English
physician. It is the custom in Persia to consult
a
medical man wherever one is met. This
would-be patient finally stated that, for
the relief of lumbago, he had been in the
habit of inserting a needle beneath the
flesh of his back every morning, but that,
on under the previous day, it had disappeared
tne skin.
The physician, after examining the
flesh which S-Kahn had uncovered,
told him that it was probable that the
needle had been lost and had never been
in his flesh at all. At this the patient
was most indignant. Europeans!” he cried;
“Ah, you Why Agha “you
will never believe. Ali, the
surgeon, says it is there, and he is going
to extract it by the mouse.”
“By the what,?”
“The mouse. Don’t you understand
that?”
“No. What mouse?”
doesn’t “Ah, science! Ah, Europeans! He
understand the action of the
mouse 1”
A chorus of explanations now brought
out the supposed fact that a live mouse
being the needle, bound on the back of the patient
would leave by some mysterious process,
his flesh and be found in that
of the mouse.
“What kind of a needle was it?” asked
the Englishman.
The confidential valet produced a
packet of ordinary sewing-needles, de¬
claring used for that no different ones were ever
that purpose.
Presently the native surgeon made his
appearance, and after listening carefully
for the needle with an old stethoscope,
the wrong end of which he applied to the
general’s person, declared that the bit of
steel “But, was please deeply God,” seated. said he,

you a and shin¬

the native turned pale. “Observe, my
friends. Presto, pass! S-Khan, the
needle has left you and is now in the
poor Agha mouse’s body!”
Ali sprang up and would have
rushed away, but he was seized and held
while his box was opened. A needle was
indeed there, previously slipped under
the loose skin of the mouse’s back. It was
compared with the others in the khan’s
pockets and found to be half an inch too
short.

The steel pen is an exceedingly modern
invention. Any person past middle ape
can remember when its use became gen¬
eral in America. Before that time the
sharpen quill pen was universal, and to make or
it for his pupils was one of the
chief tasks of the schoolmaster. Many
persons still employ this archaic instru¬
ment, within driving hearing to madness all who are
of its more harrowing
sound. The utter inability of the present
generation to listen to the scratching of
the quill pen is one of the most startling
evidences of the increase of nervous dis¬
orders among us. The pretended prefer¬
ence for it is generally an affectation.

A Royal Ball at Athens.
A royal ball at Athens is graphically
described by Miss Fearn, the daughter of
the American Minister, who says:
The King gave the signal and the
dancing the began. One very amusing feature
was manner in which the round dances
were waltz begun. When the first bars of the

of the floor and called to
the people to make a circle, on the edges
of which stood the couples about to
dance, each dancer grasping his partner
firmly by the waist and preparing at the
earliest possible moment to plunge into
the maddening rush of the deux-temps,
which is danced here exclusively, and
which is perhaps a trifle less rapid than
the galop. The Queen gave the signal
and started round the circle with her
partner; then the Crown Prince, and
then all the other couples followed, one
right after another, around and around,

which characterizes that exciting sport of
a slide on the ice, when there is onlv a
burning the anxiety lest you should swallow
up man ahead of you, or iu turn be
swallowed up by the man behind you.
The deux-temps is certainly great fun,

The following 1 words, in praise of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription ns a remedy for those delicate diseases and weak¬
nesses peculiar to women, must be of interest to every sufferer from such maladies. They are fair samples of the spontaneous
expressions with which thousands give utterance to their sense of gratitude lor the inestimable boon of health which has been
restored to them by the use of this world-famed medicine.

TREATING THE fgmONG DISEASE.
Many times women call on their family physicians. Buffering, as they imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from heart disease*
another from liver or kidney disease, another from nervous exhaustion or prostration, another with pain here and distinct or there, and in
this way they all present alike to themselves and their easy-going and indifferent, or over-busy doctor, only separate diseases,
for which he prescribes his pills and potions, assuming them to bo such, when, in reality, they are all symptom* caused by some
womb disorder. The physician, ignorant of the cause of suffering, encourages his practice until large bills are made. Tho suffering
patient like gets no better, Dut probably Prescription, worse by reason of the delay, wrong treatment and consequent complications. A proper medicine, those
Dr. Pierce’s Favorite directed to the came would have entirely removed the disease, thereby dispelling ali
distressing symptoms, and instituting comfort instead of prolonged misery.

Nov. 17, 1886. j
Recently 1 bought a
young horse, He was
taken very ill with Pneu¬
monia. I tried to think
of something to relieve
him. Concluded what
was good for man would
be good for the horse.
So I got a bottle of Piso’s
Cure and gave him half
of it through the nos¬
I trils. This helped him,
I and I continued giving
! doses night and

morning until I had
used two bottles, The

commend Piso’s Cure for
the horse as well as for
