Weak Nerves
Indicate as surely as any physical
aymptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their suitenanoe from
the blood, and if the blood js thin, im¬
pure or insufficient, they are in a state
of revolt. Their oomplointa are made
to the brain, the king of the body,
tbrough the nervous system, and the
result of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is a ooncise, reasonable expla
nation of the whole matter.
The care for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrioh your blood
by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissnes and organs will have
tha healthfnl nouishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give wav to strength anil health.
That this is not theory but faet is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hood’s Sarsspa
rilla. Read the next column.

GOOD FOOD THE CHEAPEST.
In trying to lease n the cost of feud¬
ing do not be led into the mistake of
supplying a poor article. Remember
that the best growth is not possible
without good feed, and if any changes
are to be made let them be in the
direction of improved quality.—New

KEF. PI HU POTATOES ASSORTED.
Potatoes that are piled in cellars
need pretty close looking after in
winter. Sometimes the danger is from
frost, but it is much more often due
to a too warm atmosphere. There is
rapid exhaustion of the vigor of pota¬
toes kepi for seed by having the eyes
push forth polo or white shoots, as
they will when kept in tho warmth
and darkness of a largo bin. If frost
can bo kept out the seed potatoes
should be thickly spread on floors
where the sun can shine upon them.
This cannot be done in tho cellar,
but toward springseed potatoes should
be kept in upper rooms, and tho tem¬
perature be regulated by a thermome¬
ter and small stove.—Boston Culti¬
vator.
bright mode of sheep husbandry.
The bright side of sheep husbandry ,

one of t | JC niost progressive of eastern
He claimH that although
wool has dropped from , 40 cents to
less thim 15 cents per poued, sheep,
(including mutton and manure) have
- d better than auy other branch of
1
agriculture except ... tho dairy, Even
at present prices wool pays bettor than
wheat, and tho decline in prices of
jj 10 woo i grower has to buy is as
vuluue. He believes that dairying is
likely to be overdone, that the rush to
quit sheep husbandry is a mistake,and
that wo shall never attain a fnlldogroe
of agricultural success until tho waste
places nro made glad with sheep. “As
with othor products, a low prico has
come to stay, but faith in tho sheep

TO START A 11 AI.KY HORSE.
An officer of tho police detail said
rocoutly: “When I was a mounted
policeman I loarnod a most humane
anil kind method of curing a balky
liorso. It not only never fails, but it
does not give tho slightest pain to tho
animal. When the horse refuses to
go, take tho front foot at tho fetlock,
and bond tho leg nt tho knee joint.
Hold it thus for three minutes, and
lot it down, and tho horse will go.
The only way in which I account for
this ofleotivo mastory of tho horse is
that ho can think of only one thing at
a time, and, having made up his mind
not to go, my theory is that the bend¬
ing of tho leg takes his mind from tho
original thought. There have been
some barbarously cruel methods re¬
sorted to to make a balky horse go its
way, such as filling his mouth with
sand, or severely beating the horse.
Tho humane societies would hsve
their hands full to care for all these
cruelties to nnimals. If they only
knew, the owners of the horses would
adopt my treatment, and there would
bo no troll Vile with the erstwhile
troublesome balky horse.”—Farm and
Fireside.
NEW ELECTRIC PLOW.
A German firm has constructed a
new form of electric plow which has
been found successful aud economical.
Tho plow has a pair of wheels in the
middle, nml will run in either direc¬
tion, aud it is fitted with an electric
moter which possesses tho same prop¬
erty of reversibility. Tho motor by n
chain and sprocket wheel drives tho
shaft over which passes a chain
stretched the length of tho field. Both
ends of tho chain are fastened to the
ground by triple anchors, and wheu
the motor is started it winds tho plow
over tho fields by means of the sta¬
tionary chain. When the end of the
field is reached, the plow is tipped up
and the motion of the motor reversed
by a switch, starting the plow back
again, and at the same time laying the
chain sidewise for tho next [furrow to
plowed. When tho anchors need
shifting it is done by a crowbar. To
bring the current to tho motor from
the generator tho two wires are mount¬
ed on n series of small rollers along
the ground, and they follow tho mo¬
tion of the plow very successfully. It
is stated that a considerable saving
might ho effected by the use of this
device, especially if several farmers
should combine and use it jointly.—

BEBS Dt’IUNG CHANGEABLE WINTER
WEATHER.
In many localities the weather has
beeu very cold. Bees, like all animals,
throw off moisture in their breath.
During freezing weather this congeals
and surrounds the cluster with ice, if
there is imperfect ventilation, No
harm may result until a thaw occurs,
for bees eau endure cold when dry.
If a thaw is followed by a freeze, tie
l>oes will usually be killed. Close, well
fitting hives have thus often resulted
in the death of a colony, while bees in
old rickety ones, split from top to
bottom, come out in splendid condi
tioD.
To avoid damad in this line, ln«
cline the hives tope front,so that the
moisture -will run out as soon as
melted. Do r>ot v ow it to close up
the entrance. IA'> re bees are winter¬
ing in the cellar sweep up and remove
all dead ones, so that the air will not
become tainted, (.wising uneasiness
among the living. Where restlessness
is apparent look to the ventilation and
see that the air is changed. If this
does not quiet them, place a snowball
or wet sponge where they can get at
it, as they may be in need of water.—
New England Homestead.
FEEDING FA'. J INTO MII.K.
Thestatementof the New Hampshire
Experimental Station referred to, to
the effect that “by feeding foods rich
in fat the proportion of fat in the milk
is increased, but that in time the milk
returns to its normal character, deter¬
mined by the individuality of the cow,
and the indications are that the in¬
crease in tho fats of the milk is not
due to the fats in the food, but to the
unnatural character of the ration,” is
one of thoge commonly met with ex¬
cuses made to explain what is not pos¬
sible to be denied, and a sort of
squirming ont of a difficulty which is
wholly impossible-*;' jivoid by fair and
square discussion aja<5 proof. It is a
tacit admission of tho prevailing dis
position of some em^ntifle persons to
avoid taking backf mistaken state
ments and admitinl in a manly way
that they were miswBcen or misled. It
is difficult to understand hov/ nny un¬
natural character of a ration can in¬
crease the quantity of fat in a cow’s
milk, unless it were.by tho action of
tho fats in the ratio!, and if these fats
add to the fats of the food once only,
or for a time, the iact we insist upon
U distinctly proved. The simple
truth is really adm tted by the state¬
ment quoted, and 1* good time it will
be squarely confesifd, if it is not now
fessod, by all of ibis wriggling and
squirming of a few,pf the experts.
FARM AND OATDEN NOTES.
Manure should |.o frequently re¬
moved from tho I {neighborhood of
barns.
The barnyard and its surroundings
should bo well drain’ d and free from
stnuding water and tilth.
Tho addition of one pound of well
cooked oil meal to J00 pounds of but¬
termilk greatly increases its value as a
food for swine.
When practioablcall farmers should
own a bull. They should restrict its
use to their own ctjpss, and not allow
it to come i» c ‘aet with other
stoek. l
An old horsema. dares that noth¬
ing will soil as quloJly as a fat horse.
A poor horse is a sLw sale, unless ho
is known to have an extraordinary
pedigree.
With reference to the eradication
of tho disease in herds already affected
it is recommended that a thorough ex¬
amination of the herd be made, using
tuberculin test.
Early breeding, late and oontinuous
breeding, as well is excessive and in¬
judicious feeding and milking are all
frequent predispcewig causes, nml
should be avoided.
Those who profess to know predict
that pork will ho high this year,
Whether it will or uot, the pigs can
bo made to utilize niauy waste sub¬
stances that are of no value except as
food for them. (
Allow no strange animal to come in
contact with the herd without first
making sure by tuberoullne test (which
is now recognized to be tho only prac¬
tical method of diagnosis) that they
are free from disease.
When the snow melts the farm is in
a sloppy, disagreeable condition.
Drains or openings • hould he "hov¬
eled out, if possible, and the water
carried away from the barn nnd the
stables as soon m it will flow.
Tho sheep is not. as hardy as may be
supposed. Its wool is given as a pro¬
tection, but wool will not keep tho
rain from chiibng the sheep. They
should be •sheltered and given straw
for bedding, which will also keep them
clean.
Boys who have not the peculiai
qualifications requisite for successful
farming should not be urged to stay
on tho farm simply because they were
raised there. The farmer needs spec¬
ial qualifications jnst as much as men
of other callings.
AU animals found diseased should
bo slaughtered aud the remaining an¬
imals retested at intervals. The
thorough disinfection and renovation
of all infected barns is imperative and
good drainage, light and ventilation
should be secured.
Warming milk in the winter to a
temperature of 120 to 130 degrees
makes the cream rise more quickly,
churn more easily and improves the
quality of the buiter. If the milk is
heated too much the butter will be
soft as it is in summer and the quality
will also be impaired.

The Value of Prayer,
The value of prayer not often is
fixed in dollars and cents, but a Texas
farmer is credited with such au opera¬
tion. The story is told by Rev. S. H.
Thrall, one of the pioneers of Metho¬
dism in Texas. In company with a
number of itinerants who were on
their way to conference, Dr. Thrall
stopped to spend the night with an old
farmer. It was the custom then to
settle the bill at night, so that they
might rise at 3 o’clock and ride a good
way before breakfast, and lie by in the
heat of the day. Dr. Thrall acting as
spokesman of the party, said to the
old farmer after supper :
“We are a company of Methodist
preachers goiDg to conference. If you
will gc-t the fami'y together we will
have prayers with you. ”
After prayers one by one settled his
bill. Dr. Thrall’s turn came, and he
asked for his bill. The old farmer re¬
plied :
“Well, pa’son, I charged the rest 25
cents, but bein’ as you prayed for us
so good, I won’t charge you but 20
cents.”
The brethren had the laugh oa Dr.
Thrall .—Epworih Era.
The Age for Marrying.
“If things keep on this way we won’t
have any grandfathers and grandmoth¬
ers in fifty years,” observed a man who
had been running his eyes along the
list of “marriage licenses.”
“Look here, in this list of thirty-four
licenses all but two of the men arc more
than 22 years old, and all but two of
the woman are above 18. It would
seem that the average ago of a groom
these days is 30, while the bride is but
two or three years younger.
He ran over the ages and found that
the average age of the groom was 28
and of the bride 27.
“Now, what does that mean?” he
continued. “A man does not marry
until ho is 30. If he has sons and
daughters they will not reach the mar¬
rying age until he is at least (30, and if
he hopes to see his grandchildren grow
up he must live to be at least 80 or 00.
“In the country where I was born
people married young, and it wasn’t
uncommon to have grandmothers who

A novel pieco of evidence was intro¬
duced recently in n breach of promise
caso in Bavaria. The defendant ob¬
stinately denied the charge, and stated
that his accuser had nothing to show
to prove her statement. The latter, a
buxom villago maiden, asked one day
to be permitted to bring in her evi¬
dence. Tlie court granted her request,
and adjourned until 10 o’clock tho
next day. At the appointed time she
was on hand, and upon the query of
the judge where her evidence was, she
opened tho door and four lumbermen
brought in a tree trunk, upon the bark
of which her faithless adorer had in¬
cised both their initials with a flaming
heart! She won her case. — Troy

A YOUNG GIRL’S TRIALS.
NERVOUS TROUBLES END IN ST.
VITUS’ DANCE.
Physician. Poverlw,—Tho Story Told by
the Child’. Mother.
(From the Reporter, Somerset, Ky .)
Among tlio foot bills of tho Cumberland
Mountains, near ths town of Flat Rock, is
tho happy home of James McPherron. Four
months ago the daughter of the family, a
happy girl of sixteen, was stricken with St.
Vitus' dance. Tho leading phy3iclan3 were
consulted, but without avail. She grow pale
and thin under tho terrible nervous strain
and was fast losing her mental powers. In
fact the thought of placing her in an asylum
was seriously considered. Her case has been
so widely taked about that the report of her
cure was tike modernizing a miracle of old.
To a reporter who visited the home ths
mother said;
“Yes, the reports of my daughter’s sickness
and cure are true as you hear them. Her af¬
fliction grow into St. Vitus’ dance from an
aggravated form of weakness and nervous
trouble peculiar to her sex. Every source of
help was followed to the end, but it seemed
that physicians and medioine wore power¬
less. Day by day she grew worse until we
despaired of her life. At times she almost
went into convulsions. She got so that we
had to watch her to keep her from wander¬
ing away, and you can imagine the care she
was.
“About this time, when our misery was
greatest and all hope had fled, I read of
another case, almost similar, that had been
cured by a medicine known as Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills. Almost in desperation I secured
some of the pills and from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration commenced;
the nervousness left, her cheeks £rew bright
with the color of health, she gained flesh and
grew strong both mentally and physically
until to-day she is the very picture of good
hejilth and happiness.
“It is no wonder that I speak in glowing
terms of Pink Pills to every ailing person I 1
meet. They saved my daughter's life and I
am grateful.’’
The foregoing is but one of many wonder¬
ful cures that have been credited to Dr. Will¬
iams* Pink Pills for Tale People. In many
cases the reported cures have been investi¬
gated by the leading newspapers and veri¬
fied in every possible manner. Their fame
has spread to the far ends of civilization and
there is hardly a drug store in this country !
or abroad where they cannot be found.

Children’s Itights.
If a child ha? any sensibility, scold¬
ing either kills it or makes it vicious.
Children have rights which ought to be
respected as much as with their elders.
They can reason as well as older and
wiser heads. They are as quick to see
an injustice and know as well as any
one else when parents are making fools
of themselves. The household of a
noted dramatist in New York is said
to be a democracy, Tho voice of the
youngest child m it is as potent as that
of a parent.
This is a rare incident of the recog¬
nition of children’s rights, and while
it might not prove successful if gener¬
ally applied, owing to parental inca¬
pacity, who can say that it is not a
plan of wisdom and one that in many
cases might work wonders of domestic
harmony? While oftentimes children
have been ruined by indulgence, thpy
have frequently been spoiled with
“discipline.”
Children were never designed for
nonenities, a fact in proof of which
the omnipresent small boy stands out
with monumental prominence. While
children can be allowed to become a
nuisance by the laxity of parents, they
can, on the other hand, be oppressed
until they become atrophied in mind
and heart and soul .—Albany Journal.

The Bishop’s Laboratory Beer.
The laboratory that supplies Bishop
Fallow’s home-brewed, non-alcoholio
boer is working overtime in order to
keep up with the demand. The drink,
as described by a connoisseur, tastes
like old-fashioned “yarb tea,” and ap¬
pears to be a preparation of roots,
herbs, barks and gums, such as the
grandmothers of the present generatioa
used to give to “clean out the system”
after an attack of boils, carbuncles of
spring fever. There is a general feel¬
ing that Bishop Fallows would not
spring any unwholesome or unright¬
eous 1 evernge on a trusting commun¬
ity, and the Home saloon is doing ft
tremendous business. — Chicago Tri¬
