Here is an incident from the South
Mississippi , written in April , 1890 ,
just after the Grippe had visited that
country. " I am a farmer , one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. At the beginning of last
Winter I was on a trip to the City
of Vicksburg , Miss. , where I got well
drenched in a shower of rain. I
went home and was soon after seized
with a dry , hacking cough. This
grew worse every day , until I had
to seek relief. I consulted Dr. Dixon
who has since died , and he told mete
to get a bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe
came along and I caught that also
very severe ! } ' . Mr condition then
compelled me to do something. I
got two bottles of German Syrup. I
began using them , and before taking
much of the second bottle , I was
entirely clear of the Cough that had
hung to me so long , the Grippe , and
all its bad effects. I felt tip-top and
have felt that way ever since. "

On Walnut street , near Twentieth ,
live a young married couple who have
two children a boy , a girl , ageu , ve-
ipcctivuly , .0 aim 7. The youny mother
has ideas of her own about raiding
children in the way they should go and
does her best to inculcate right princi
ples in them. The other day. hearing
a noise in the kitchen , she went to the
back stairs and listened. Imagine her
horror at hearing her son using de
cidedly bad language to the cook. She
said nothing , but waited until the
young hopeful came up , when she
asked :
"Where were you , : ny son ? "
"Down in the kitchen talking to the
cook , " ' was the ready reply.
What were you talking about ? "
said the mother.
"Hell , " was the astounding answer.
"And what did you tell her about
it ? "
Looking up cheerily in his mother's
face , the boy said promptly :
"Told hert o go there. " Phila

A Cozy JVi'M.
In the picture gallery of Charlton
park , near lalmesbury , England , is a
glass case containing the skin and fea
tures of a big crow. The creature had
been caught and nailed to a tree with
other vermin , a fate which so many
thousands of crows share yearly that
there is nothing odd in it. The
extraordinary part of the mat
ter is that in the shelter of his
wings , where his body was before it
decayed , a little wren had built itself
an exceedingly little nest. With
wonderful dexterity the tiny bird had
contrived to fasten together the wings
of his dead enemy , whose body he
proposed to utilize. The entrance to
the nest was where the crow's breast
had been , and here the family of little
wrens was reared. The nest was ob
served , and when its occupants had
flown away it was carefully removed
and placed in the owner's picture gal
lery.
IIu\v to Stop XOKO IHootliiitr.
Continued and obstinate nose bleed
ing has been at limes very hard to
stop , and a simple and very effective
remedy will no doubt prove welcome
to those who live in the country or at
a distance from medical attendance.
Several severe cases of nose bleed
have occurred at the hospital of the
Universit } ' of Pennsylvania , and , after
trying every expedient without suc
cess , Dr. D. H. ' Agnew , as a last re
sort , tried ham fat. Two large cylin
ders of bacon were forced well up into
the nostrils , resulting in almost im
mediate relief and an entire cessation
of the hemorrhage. This easy remedy
should be remembered by those who
are subject to frequently recurring at
tacks of nose bleed. Ladies' Home

Heat and the Growth of Hair.
It is generally understood that the
hair nails grow faster in hot weather
than in cold ; but perhaps few are
aware that any temperature can impart
so great a stimulus to the growth as
Col. Pejevalsky. the llussian traveler ,
says the central Asian heat did during
his journey in those regions in the
summer of 1889. In June the ground
and the air became excessively hot so
great indeed as to render travel in the
daytime impossible. Within a fort
night after this oppressive weather be
gan it was noticed that the hair and
beard of all the party was growing
with astonishing rapidity , and , strang
est of all , some youthful Cossacks ,
whose faces were perfectly smooth , de
veloped respectable beards within the
short period of twenty days.

A Pathetic Cat Story.
A strange story in which a cat is a
pathetic character has come to light
in Paoli , Ga. A little boy of that vil-
hige owned a cat that was a great pet
in the family. But the cat would have
nothing to do with any one except the
boy. The latter died and for two
weeks the cat would come as usual
every morning to the door , and , going
in the room , would cry mournfully ,
and walk over the child's bed hunting
for its lost friend. Finally the cat
disappeared , only returning occasion
ally. At last one of the child's sisters
saw the cat in the graveyard , where
it remained for weeks , only returning
occasionally for food. It kept guard
at the boy's grave.

No kind of grain is hotter for pigs ,
or yet for fattening1 hogs , than field
peas. They require less labor than
corn , and for inducing thrifty growth
they are superior to any grain , except
ing possibly wheat. A patch of peas
ought to be sown expressly for the pigs ,
and as soon as the peas are fuliy grown
a hurdle fence moved from place to
place will enable the pigs to harvest
the crop themselves. While the vines
are green they will eat pods and leaves ,
bat as soon as the peas begin to ripen
the pigs become expert shelters. It is
an excellent crop to grow in orchards ,
and the rooting of the pigs in search
of scattered grains will keep the sur
face mellow and cover the droppings
which they make , thus insuring against
waste. To grow peas in orchards and
feed them down with hogs there be
comes a good way of keeping the trees
in best condition.

not liking this , tried lo make him give
up this habit , so they filled his com
partment with chimney-sweeps , carry
ing sacks of soot ; but when the duke
arrived at his designation lie took the
sweeps to the booking ollice and bought
them each a first-class ticket back again
and put one in each first-class carriage ,
sack and all. After this the company
gave up trying to make the duke travel

Have a Flnh Pond.
There is no reason why every far
mer who has easy access to water
should not have on his place an insti
tution in which food will grow with
scarcely if any trouble , and food too ,
more valuable than that which comes
out of the pork barrel. With a trilling
outlay at first most any farmer can
construct a small fish pond , in which
he will find it much more easy to cul
tivate the German carp than to raise a
brood of chickens. With such an insti
tution on his farm he is always sure of
one kind of wholesome , nourishing
food. One farmer in Noble county , O. ,
recently wrote : "One of my neighbors
started a pond in May , 1883 , and he
informed me the other day that he had
sold over $600 worth of fish to stock
ponds and for market. He has two
very large ponds on his farm. In the
first place , I think a pond or artificial
lake composed of black loam soil is
the most suitable for these fish. The
ponds should be fed from living springs
of good pure water. They ought to
have plenty of grass in the edge of the
water for the spawn to adhere to. One
of my neighbors has pond lilies , which
are very beautiful and attractive.
