all Implying that having xome month*

Young Men," I could not, without neg
lect of dutv. refuse to preach a sermon
on "Advice to Young Women,
It Is the more Important that the pul
pit he heard on this subject at this time
when we are having such an Illimitable
discussion about what Is called the
"New Woman," as though some new
creature of Ood had arrived on earth,
or were about to arrive. One theory Is
that she will be an athlete, and boxing
glove and football and pugilistic en
counter will characterize her. Another
theory Is that she will superintend bal
lot boxes, sit. In congresslonsl hall, and
through Improved politics bring the
millennium by the evil she wll extir
pate and the good she will Install. An
other theory Is that she will adopt
masculine attire and make sacred a
vulgarlanlsm positively horrific. An
other theory Is that she will be so es
thetic that broom handle nnd rolling
pin and coal scuttle will be plctorlallzed
with tints from tort skies or sugges
tions of Rembrandt and Raphael.
Heaven de!lv< r the church and the
world from any one of these styles of
new woman, hhe will never come.
I have so much faith In the evangelis
tic triumph and In the progress of all
things In the right direction that I
prophesy that style of new woman will
never arrive. She would hand over this
world to diabolism, and from being, as
she Is now, the mightiest agency for
the world's uplifting, she would be the
mightiest force for Its downthrust.
I will tell you who the new woman
will be. It will be the good woman of
all the ages past. Here and there a
difference of attire, as the temporary
custom may command, hut the same
good, honest, lovely, Christian, all-ln
Duentlal being that your mother and
mine was. Of that kind of woman was
Christian Eddy, who, talking to a man
who was so much of an unbeliever ho
bad named his two children Voltaire
ana rom mine, neverinensg saw nun
converted, he breaking down with emo
tion as he said to her, “I cannot stand
you, you talk like my mother," and tell
ing the story of hla convention to twelve
companlona who had been blatant op
pose™ of religion, they nuked her to
come and see them also, and tell them
of Christ, and four of them were con
verted, and all the others greatly
changed, and the lender of the band,
departing for heaven, shouted, "Joyful!
Joyful! Joyful!" If you know any bet
ter style of woman than that, where Is
she? The world cannot Improve on
that kind. The new woman may have
more knowledge, because she will have
more books, hut she will have no more
common eenue than that whlrb tried to
munage and discipline and educate us,
and did as well aa ahe could with such
unpromising material. Shu may have
mure health than the woman of other
duys, for the sewing machine ami the
sanitary regulations and added Intelli
gence on the subjects of diet, ventila
tion. and exercise, and rescue from
many forms of drudgery, may allow her
more longevity, hut she will have the
same characteristics which (lod gave
her In paradise, with the exception of
the nervous shock and moral Jolt of
the fall she got mat day when not notic
ing where she stepped, she looked up
Into the branches of the fruit tree,

cal health. I do not wonder that the
Greek* defiled health and hailed Hygelu
as a goddess, I rejoice that there have
b<en so many modes of maintaining and
restoring young womanly health In
vented In our time. They may have
been known a long time back, but they
have been popularized In our day -lawn
tennis, croquet and golf, and the bi
cycle, It always seemed strange and
Inscrutable that our human race should
bo so slow of locomotion, when creat
ures of less Importance have powers of
velocity, wing of bird or foot of ante
lope, leaving ns fur behind, and while
It seems so Important that we be In
many places In a short while, we were
weighed down with Incapacities, and
most men If they run a mile are ex
hausted, or dead from the exhaustion.
It was left until the last decade of the
nineteenth century to give the speed
which we see whirling through all our
cities and along the country roads, and
with that speed comes health, The wo
men of the next decade will be health
ier than at any time since the world
was created,while the Invalidism which
has so often characterized womanhood
will pass over to manhood, which by
Its posture on the wheel, Is coming to
curved spine and cramped chest and a
deformity for which another fifty years
will not have power to make rescue.
Young man, sit up straight when you
ride. Uorwln says the human race Is
descended from the monkey, hut the
bicycle will turn an hundred thousand
men of the present generation In phys
ical condition from man to monkey. For
good womanhood, I thank God that this
mode of recreation has been Invented.
Use It wisely, modestly, Chrlstlanly, No
good woman needs to be told what at
tire Is proper and what behavior Is
right. If anything be doubtful reject It.
* ll/ll i.

man Is the detestation of all, and every
revolution of the wheel she rides Is
towards depreciation and downfall.
Take care of your health, O, woman; of
your nerves in not reading the trash
which makes up ninety-nine out of loo
novels, or by eating too many cornu
copias of confectionery. Take care of
your eyes by not reading at hours when
you ought to bo sleeping. Take care
of your ear* by stopping them against
the tides of gossip that surge through
every neighborhood.
Health! Only those know Its value
who have lost It. The earth Is girdled
with pain, and a vast proportion of It
Is the price paid for early recklessness.
I close this though with the salutation
in Macbeth:
Now good digestion wait on appetite
And health on both.
Advice the Third: Appreciate your
mother while you have Iter. It is the
almost universal testimony of young
women who have lost their mother,
that they did not realise what she was
to them until after her exit from this
life. Indeed, mother la in (be apprecia
tion of many a young lady a hindrance.
The maternal Inspection I* often con
sidered an obstacle, Mother haa so
many notions about that which i* prop
er and that which la Improper. It ts
astounding bow much more many girls
know at I* than their mother* at 43
With what nu elaborate argument, per

youngling tries to reverse the uplnlon

Young woman! draw out, snd dsclds
what you will be, and do, God helping.
Writs It out In s plain hand, not like the
letters wblcb Josephine received from
Napoleon In Italy, the writing so
scrawling and scattered that It wae
sometimes taken es n mep of the seat
of war. Put the plan on tbe wall of
your room, or write It In the opening of
a blank book, or put It where you will
be compelled often to see It. A thou
sand questions of your coming life you
can settle now, but there Is one question
you can aettle Independent of man,
woman, angel and devil,and that Is that
you will be a God's womun now, hence
forth and forever. Clasp hands with
the Almighty. Pythagoras represented
life by tbe letter Y, because It early di
vides Into two ways. l<ook out for op
portunities of cheering, Inspiring, res
cuing, and saving all tbe people you
can. Maks a league with the Hternl

comet belonging to our system called
Lexell's comet, Is lost, as It ought to
have appeared thirteen times, and has
not appeared at all. Alaa! It Is not only

minutes past eleven, arid yet nothing
left on the field but dying and dead men,
dying and dead horses. Hut a smaller
proportion of the men and women who
go Into the battle of life come out un
wounded. The slaughter has been and
will be terrific, and wo all need God,
and we need him now, and we neod him
all the time. And let ine say tbers la a
now woman, as there la a new man, and
that la the regenerated woman made
•ucb by tbo ransacking, transforming,
upbuilding, triumphant power of the
Spirit la who bo superior to all other
spirits that ho has been railed for
age* the Holy Spirit. Quicker than
wheel ever turned on Ita axis;
quicker than fleetest hoof ever
struck the pavement; quicker
than zig-zag lightning ever dropped
down the sky, the ransoming power I
apeak of will revolutionize your entire
nature. Then you can start out on a
voyage of life, defying both calm And
cyclone, saying with Dean Alford:
One who lias known In storms to sail
I have on board;
Above the roaring of the gale
1 bear nay l/;rd.
He holds me when the billows smile;
I shall not fall;
If short Tls sharp, If long ’tin light;
He tempers all.

of his shirts behind In a small tavern.
Upon finding his loss he wrote at onco

K a factory that
makes 1,000 pounds
of cheese per day
could by some con
centrated plan of
Action union a Ha
patrons and maker
add a half cent a
pound to Ita quality
It would amount lo
fft a day, or more
Ilian |7M for the
summer. No small amount In Itself
toward paying the expenses of
the concern, and leave to the
patrons Just an much more with
which to pay lax*c, pew rents und
claw-hammer coats. And yet this la
the experience of factories reported,
who had demanded that all milk to be
delivered shall, as soon aa milked, lie
aerated and cooled before being sent,
in one factory a loss of two cento a
pound on all cheese made by Inferior
quality and flavor was recovered, and
ibe cheese sold after with the beat,
followed the rule of every patron night
and morning aerating Iho milk and
cooling to a certain degree before plac
ing on the factory wagon. In quite a
number of factories thla season where
this rule le being rnudo mandatory,
there baa been not only a noticeable
Improvement In the quality of tha but
ter made, but an tucreaac In amount,
I. e., the milk creamed better, and the
churn did more perfect work. There
la a place for the "coming" factory man
vermin was destroyed. The hen-house
was sprayed with the same mixture,
thoroughly cleaned and emptied of ev
erything but a block for pounding hone,
boxes for neats, and movable rooals
made of green cedar poles fastened to
gether In pairs and set up on cadar legs
eighteen Inches high. The neats are
kept clear of vermin by occasionally
Inverting them over a blu/.e made of
their straw filling. The roosts staud out
from the wall to prevent their acquir
ing vermin from that source, though
cedar Is said to be proof against them.
The houae Is twenty feet square, with
a sand floor, which la cleaned every oili
er day and freshly spaded, or routed
with a layer of road dual. The fowls
are confined In ■ pork of 120 feel circuit,
Kvery morning they are fed a hot mush
of bran and potatoes, sightly sailed and
stirred up with Die liquor from boiled
meat sera pa. Twice a week a handful
of sulphur la thrown Into this mash.
Corn Is given on the cob lo make them
work a little for their food. Hcraps
from the neat market malm them a
meal every second day. For greens
they buve fresh, erlsp, pig weeds, turnip
tops and onions, Wllb tomatoes and
refuse fruit they are abundantly sup
plied.

now that limy arc moulting, the egg

Which they freely help themselves.
l,ater, I shall dip them again to destroy
all body lies that may remain, and put
them In the best of trim for winter, I
am convinced ibat their productiveness
Is due largely to freedom from vermin;
cleanliness and care In feeding do the

l In Crswmlng.
Not long ago. says the Practical
Dairyman, we made a little InveHtlga
tlon Into Just what the loss was through
setting the milk In open pans. A herd
of fourteen cows was In milk and giv
ing about 250 pounds of milk a day.
The pans were set in a cool room nud al
lowed to stand from 30 to 4H hours or
until the milk begun to thicken. The
skim milk wuu tested with the Han
cock test, und It showed that nearly all
the cream rose lu the first twelve hours,
no difference being shown between that
set twelve hours and that set thirty-six
hours. Hut the uuiuunl of butler fat
which was lost was somewhat appall
ing, umountlug us It did to eight
teulbs of 1 per cent, or about one sixth
of the whole amount of butter tn the
milk. This loss Is not surprising lo
one who has opportunity to make such
tests, and ll Is going on every day on
hundreds and hundreds of farms In this
country. In this case. It amounted to
two pounds of butter per day which
brought 25 cents u pound to s private
trade. Fifteen per cent of the entire
production or over 1115 per >«ar; who
auya that the loss dues not amount to
much?

Points About I:bs».
It Is not always safe to Judge an egg
by It* appearance. It may he appar
ently fresh, yet If It absorbs enough air
to permit It to float In water even a
little above the bottom of the dish It
may not he perfectly fresh.
The white of a perfectly fresh egg
cannot he beaten to a froth as easily a*
the white of an egg that Is a day or two
old, and If the egg Is very cold the heat
ing of the white will he accomplished
more easily.
When the shell of till egg will peel off
as If the egg hud been hard boiled, II Is
not fresh, us the content* of a fresh egg i
adhere closely to the shell and must be
removed.
When held to a strong light, a fresh
egg Is dear, and If shaken In the hand
no Jarring motion of the contents must
be fdt.
Muuy who use eggs daily are unable
to Judge of their quality. und Indeed It
Is illtllcult to determine the frustiuess of
HU egg by any one, hut the ubovu may
