It heals promptly and cures ec zema and all skin diseases. It gives im mediate relief. A. McMillen. During the summer of 1891 , Mr. Chas. P. Johnson , a well known attorney of Louisville , Ky. , had a very severe attack of summer complaint. Quite a uumber of different remedies were tried , but failed to afford any relief. A friend who knew what was needed procured him a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic , Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy , which quickly cured him and he thinks , saved Ins life. He says that there has not been a day since that time that he has not had this remedy in his household. He speaks of and takes much praise it iu the highest pleasure in recommending it whenever an opportunity is offered. For sale by L. W. McConncll & Co.

Aid nnd succor \vuro liiditipomuvhlo for com * imuml nuuuNsitio.s , thoruforo the miir- ringu of iv .son or a daughter in every tmtall oommoinvoivlth was a niattor for public consideration.

In this the \vholu triho assisted , and then joined as of right in the fon- tivitics that radiiiilly row round the marriage ceremony. In short , in those day.s thu individual was ignored and had no existence nave as ono of a group. Surely wo may consider that HUH led to the necessity for the lord of the man ors sanction to his tenants' marriage iu feudal times , the lords of the manor in the middle ages having appropriated to themselves many of the rights of the tribal authorities of primitive times. In feudal times no girl could be married to any ono out of the manor without the good will of the lord of the soil , and an heiress could not bo married ut all without - | out his consent. In some instances lines ' had to ho paid by the bride's father , or | whoever stood to her iu the place of a I father , for leave to give her in marriage to a stranger. Philadelphia Lodger. Cofico us n Mccliciuc. i It is said that the first use of coffee by man was made by the prior of a con vent. Ho was told by a goatherd of the exciting effects of the berries when eateu by his goats , so ho thought ho would try them and see if ho could uot keep his monks awake during what should have been their vigils. He succeeded admirably and brought coffee into the way of earning its worldwide reputa tion. The most active principle of coffee is caffeiu. It contains also certain oils , which no doubt have a share in its ac tion. Many years ago a claim was made that green , or uuroasted , berries had a j great value iu liver and kidney trou- i hies. t One enthusiast prefers a mixture of ! two parts Mocha and ono part Alarti- ' uique and Isle do Bourbon coffee. Ho : puts about three drams of this in a 1 tumbler of cold water and lets them | strain and infuse overnight. The next i inoruing , after straining , the infusion i is talceu on au empty stomach the first thiug after getting up. This medical authority cites many cases of kidney and liver colics , diabetes , nervous head aches , etc. , which , though rebellious iu all other treatment for years , soou yield ed to the grecu coffee iufusion. The remedy is a very simple oue and well worthy of a trial. Another use of coffee medicinally is iu uausea aud retching. For that purpose a strong iufusiou is made of the berries which have beeu grouud and rousted , and it is sipped while very hot. New York Ledger. Ejrs That Don't Hatch , I have bceu esperimeutiug lately on the eggs from certaiu heus to fiud out if there is auy great difference iu the way they hatch , their vitality , etc. , and have beeu greatly interested iu the dis coveries. The eggs from the abnormally fat heus seldom hatch. The chicken usually dies on or about the twelfth day of incubation. Wlieu au egg hatches a day or two iu advance of time , ouo usu ally concludes that it was quite fresh wheu put iu , but 1 uow fiud that it is the eggs from the active and most healthy hens that break the shell first. Five eggs from a little game hen , which were all over 5 days old , were the first to hatch. Invariably the egg from the sleepy , lazy hen hatches late. Out of 27 hens whose eggs I experi mented with I fouud two quito sterile. They both lay fine , large eggs of good shape aud shell , but , though I must have tried quite a dozen of their eggs , not oue has ever had a sign of a chick- eu. I have oveu mated them with differ ent roosters , but without avail , aud , utrauge to say , they are the worst tem pered hens iu the yard , always quarrel ling and beating the others.

If tea or coffee bo good , the additiou of milk spoils the taste. Coffee aud milk and tea aud milk are difficult to digest. Pure cream is less objectionable , because pure cream is really butter or grease aud contains very little of the albuminous part of. the milk. Waitinc.
