titan, ==4 gionotbold:
Prepare for Spring.
At this, the winter season of the year,
much can be done toward helping on the
labor that will flood the farmer and gar
dener in spring. Many pleasant days will
shine out through the face of old winter,
and during such times fences can be re
paired, buildings altered and fixed up; the
manure and compost heap added to; trees,
vines and plants trimmed, multched and
cleaned out generally; stakes for vines
end raspberries got out and hauled and
and planted and put under shelter. In
fact, the farmer and gardener need hardly
be idle a single day; and the long nights
are sufficient for reading and recreation.
Every farmer and gardener should have a
workshop with a stove in it, and a loft
overhead where he can put timber to sea
son, which is suitable to make swivel and
double trees, hoe, rake, spade, and fork
handles, axle trees, bolsters, sliders, tongues,
etc., etc. He should have a tool chest with
the ordinary tools for such work, such as
drawing knife, hatchet, chisels, augers,
brace and bits, saws, mallet, etc., and have
a supply of bolts and taps, nails and other
things which may be needed from time to
time on a farm. Such a workshop would
afford a comfortable and inviting retreat
for the farmer and gardener and their
boys ; and no matter how cold and wet, no
matter how fiercely the storm rages with
out, all would be snug and safe, and much
could be done towards helping on the
press of work when active operations come
on in the busy days of spring.
Besides this, it would afford pleasant
as well as useful recreation to the male
members of the family, and dins many a
dollar would be saved, to say nothing of
the loss of time consequent upon running
to the village or cross-roads shop, to have
trifling little jobs of work done. The cus_
tom indulged in by many farmers and their
sons, of visiting the mills, shops, stores,
and other "loafing" places in their neigh
borhood, during the winter season, and
spending many valuable hours, both day
and night, is, to say the least, quite im
proper. Habits of idleness are engender
ed, and, too frequently, habits of dissipa
tion, all of which could be prevented if
such plans for home occupation were pre
pared as herein suggested. Hake home
attractive, is a maxim which cannot be too
often urged upon all. Let it become dear
er to every member of the family, male
and female, than any other place on earth.
In addition to a workshop, prepare a com
fortabler room fo the boys, where they can
be by themselves; provide good books and
papers, such as the TUE HUNTINGDON
JOURNAL and kindred papers; works on
farming and stock, poultry, sheep, hogs.
horses, cattle, etc., and some good paper
on the stirring events of the day. These,
if wisely chosen, will furnish food for the
mind ; and day by day, year by year, as
the boys grow to manhood, such a founda
tion will be laid as to tell, for good only,
upon their entire after life.
Quarter Crack in Horses' Hoofs.
Many plans have been devised by which
to heal a quarter crack, such as scoring
with a knife, blistering, cutting with a
sharp, hot iron, riveting and the like, all of
which, in many cases, have proved a fail
ure. Now, if you will follow my direetions,
you may have a sound foot in three months.
Above the crack, and next to the hair, cut
with your knife an incision one half an
inch long, crosswise of the crack, and one"-
eighth or one-sixteenth inch deep. Now,
from the incision draw a line one-quarter
inch each side, parallel with the crack
down to the shoe ; then with your knife
follow those lines, and cut through the en
amel, or crust of the foot. Now, there is
a piece of the crust to be taken out. This
is done by loosening the top of the piece
next to the hair with your knife, then with
your forceps take hold of the piece and pull
it off; that leaves a space of one-half inch
of the crust taken out from the hair down
to the shoe: Fill the cavity with tar, and
place on a soft piece of leather to keep the
tar in its place.
Keep the animal quiet for three or four
days, and he is ready to drive. Shoe with
a bar-shoe; leaving some spring to the heel,
so it will not bear hard upon the weak
quarter, and in three months you will have
a sound foot. The bar-shoe is often ex
ceedingly useful. It is the *continuation
of the common shoe around the heels, and
by means of it the pressure may be taken
off from some other which is better able to
bear it, or more widely and deeply diffused
over the whole foot. It is resorted to in
cases of corns, pumiced feet, sand crack,
quarter crack, etc. In such cases the bar
slice can be used to advantage, but it should
be left off as soon as it can be dispensed
with. Any intelligent blacksmith can
make them.—Mas,s. Ploughman.
A Good Cow.
A correspondent of the Rural American,
writing from Darien Centre, New York,
says : I know of a cow in this vicinity that
makes 26 pounds of butter per week, and
has made 43 pounds in two weeks. She
has given as high as 83 pounds of milk a
day, for several days in succession. * She
is a brindle, 11 years old, is light in her
forequarters, has a short neck and head,
broad across the horn's! large, prominent
eyes, large nostrils, and her body and hind
parts are very heavy. She has a peculiar
bag, long, thick and oval; it is well set up
in the body, and hangs down to the gam
brel joint; her teats are not large, but are
peculiarly formed; they are nearly as thick
as my wrist, and instead of being straight
es in most cows, they are coiled in folds.—
I have never seen the like. Mr. W., her
former owner, had a tin pail made on pur
pose to milk her in, holding 25 quarts.—
The above statement in regard to this cow,
can be proven ; and taking her all in all,
she beats all the cows New England has
ever given us an account of.
MY VINEGAR ON LIME SPOTS.—Vin
egar will neutralize lime spots on woolen
clothes, without injuring the color of the
cloth. Dark cloth, the color of which had
apparently been destroyed in large blotches,
was perfectly restored to its original color
by the application of strong vinegar.

Truancy and Steetrunning.
When our schools are made so attractive
and the irksomeness of study is removed,
when our schools and all that pertian to
them are so perfect and so popular that'
every boy and girl will come forward and
say that nothing whatever, neither
skating nor swimming, neither base-ball ,
croquet, marbles, fishing, visiting, shows,
parades nor any other amusement so se
ductive to the juvenile mind, can draw
them from the school-room, then may we
look for the dawn of the educational millen
ium. Whenwe sometimes hear theorist s
telling what shools may be, what
a fascinating influence, the teacher
may exert over the pupil, no
matter what the home influences of that
pupil may be, we might be led to believe
the educational art had attained perfection,
but for the every day experience to the
contrary.
Would that it were so. But boyish hu
man nature is the same now as ever, and
that, notwithstand our excellent school
system, so practical in its bearings, some
time will yet elaspe before its attractions
will counterbalance the many temptations
for boys to play the truant. We know
that there are many ways in which the
teacher may lessen this evil, but, his efforts
will not reach all cases. More especially,
will his best efforts be in vain, where he
does not have the co-operation of the pa
rent. Boys that are allowed to run at
will, about the streets at night, learning
all manner of vice,-such as only they can
learn, under the cover of darkness, are
not the ones that willingly and cheerfully
submit to the confinement and close ap
plication of the school-room. Visit our
schools, observe the bearing and standing
of the pupils, and we can readily deter
mine as to the home influences and recrea
tions of the respective pupils. Parents
cannot safely allow their boys to play in
the streets and loing,e around saloons and
railroad stations, at a time when they should
be gathered around the home circle. This
is a question that concerns more than the
parent and child. The good order and
welfare of the community is affected by it.
It is for such, as they become older and
more numerous, that the authorities find
it necessary to establish police regulations.
Truancy is generally a result, where the
boy is left to run at willl in the streets-
Truancy has been the experience of the
schools in all large towns and cities. In
many places truant systems have been
adopted in connection with police rugula
tions. Their influence has been found
salutary, and legislation on this subject
is on the increase. We believe we know
cases where such a helping agency would
be cordially approved.
Morel Education.
It is impossible to fully estimate the
blessings that have followed the earnest
promotion of education in this country.
From its earliest settlement the instruction
of the mass of the people has been one of
the chief characteristics, and the results
that have been manifest in an enlightened,
prosperous and happy community have
richly rewarded every effort in that direc
tion. But there is always danger where
any public advantage is pursued with eager
ness and continuity, lest it become more
strong in its outgrowth than full and round
ed in its nature, and in this matter of ed
ucation we are not wholy without danger,
lest in our zeal for the intellectual improve
ment of youth, we forget that only as a
careful, moral training goes hand-in-hand
with mental discipline can they be said to
be thoroughly educated.
It is a truth abundantly proved iu some
countries, that the simple communication
of instrction, without any corresponding
moral influence being brought to bear, fails
to secure that rounded and well balanced
improvement which we desire for the ris
ing generation. Cousin, a distinguished
French philosopher made deep researches
into the subject of education, both in his
own country and Prussia, front which he
proved that where even the best systems
of education prevailed, apart from religious
and moral influence, there crime was the
most fully developed. Knowledge is un
doubtedly a power, but one that is not
wielded by moral principle will be devoted
to selfish and unholy purposes. Indeed,
every accession of knowledge brings with
it a new responsibility, and it should be as
much the aim of the instructor to implant
the sense of this responsibility and of its
consequent duties as it is to impart the
instruction. This is the great truth of
education that we are in danger of over
looking. We are rightly anxious to in
struct our youth in the various branches
of knowledge ; we take pains that their
minds shall be disciplined, that their rea
son shall be cultivated, that their powers
shall all be strengthened to the utmost ;
but we are not equally zealous to implant
those principles in the heart which shall
guide into noble and virtuous directions
the powers we have thus called forth.
True education is the preparation of the
whole nature for the scenes in which it is
to play its part. It is not too much to ex
pect, therefore, that our youth be made to
look forward in some degree to the respon
sibilities which, in after-life, they must as
sume; that they be taught the great prin
ciples of justice and the beneficence that
form the foundation of good citizenship,
and the candor and courtesy that will en
able them to fill worthily their social
relations. The principles of religion,
in its broadest sense, must be
combined with mental discipline, if we
would truly educate the rising generation.
It may be said there is no time for all this
in our schools, limited as are the hours
and manifold the tasks. It would be far
better for the permanent welfare of the
pupils for their mental and moral training
to go hand-in-hand, even though the for
mer be pushed with less rapidity. There
are few more favorable fields for the prac
tical inculcation of the great moral virtues
than the school-room, and the teacher who
will punish inattention or the failure of
memory, while deceitful and dishonorable
practices pass unreproved, is warping the
child's conscience, and inflicting an injury
upon his moral future.
I Still, although much more of this moral
education ought to be infused into school
life than is now attempted or supposed
possible, yet home is the chief source to
which we must look for the influence
which is to mould the heart and order the
life. Parents are too apt to think, when
they have supplied good schools for their
children, and supplied theirmaterial wants
as liberally as their means allow, that their
duty is accomplished. There are blessings
within the power of parents to bestow that
no money can purchase, and that only
themselves can confer. To them especial
ly is committed the trust of infusing into
the hearts of the young those great prin
ciples of virtue which should be their guide
through life ; and if they prove recreant
to this sacred trust, they will look in vain
for others to perform it. Neither will oc
casional precepts be sufficient to accomplish
this great work. The influence of a daily
life, actuated by right motives„ and exhi
biting continually the beauty of goodness,
is more effectual in winning the hearts of
the young than the wisest precepts. Hap
py are those children whose homes afford
bright examples for their . imitation, and
who look up to their parents, not only with
the unbounded love and confidence that
should ever exist in that relation, but also
with the honor and respect that only real
worth and goodness can call forth. With
such mental discipline and moral training
go on band-in-hand, and theirs will be a
true, because a well-balanced education.—

THE KIDNEYS
:0:
The kidneys arc two in number, situated at the,
upper part of the lion, surrounde d by fat, and con
sisting of three parts, via: the Anterior, the In
terior, and the Exterior.
GLASS,
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tis
sues or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine
and convey it to the exterior. The exterior is a
conductor also, terminating in a single tube, and
called the Ureter. The ureters are connected with
the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various coverings or
tissues, divided into parts, viz: the Upper, the
Lower, the Nervous and the Mucous. The upper
expels, the lower retains. Many have a desiao to
urinate without the ability; others urinate without
the ability to retain. This frequently occurs in
children.
To cure these affections, we must bring into ac
tion the muscles, which are engaged in their var
ious functions. If they are neglected, (travel or
Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aware, that how
ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to effect
the bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh
and blood are supported from these sources.
GOUT, OR RII;.I7MATIS3I.—Pain occurring in the
loins is indicative of the above diseases. They oc
cur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky
concretions.
Tax Gat,EL.—The gravel ensues from neglect
or improper treatment of the kidneys. These or
gans being weak, the water is not expelled from
the bladder, but allowed to remain ; it becomes
feverish, and sediment forms. It is from this de
posit that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues.
DROPSY is a collection of water in some parts
of the body, and bears different names, according
to the parts affected, via: when generally diffused
over the body, it is called Anasarca ; when of the
abdomen, Ascitesi when of the chest, Ilydrothorax.
TEE ATMENT.—lielmbold's highly concentrated
compound Extract Backs is decidedly one of the
best remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys,
gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism and gout
affections. Under this head we have arranged
Dysuria, or difficulty and pain in passing water,
Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges
of water ; Strangury, or stopping of water ;
tulle or bloody urine ; Gout and - Rheumatism of
the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but
increase in color, or dark water. It was always
highly recommendee by the late Dr. Physiek, in
these affections.
This medicine increases the power of digestion,
and excites the absorbents into healty exercise by
which the watery or calcareous depositions, and
all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain and in
flammation, are reduced, and it is taken by men,
women and children. Directions for use and diet
accompany.
PHILADELPHIA. PA., Feb. 25, 1867.
11. T. 111:101ULD, Druggist :
Dear Sir:—l have been a sufferer, for upward
of twenty years, with gravel bladder and kidney
affections, during which time I have used various
medicinal preparations, and have been under the
treatment of the most eminent Physicians, experi
encing little relief. . . .
lla;ing seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised, I consulted with my family physician in
regard to using your Extract Buchu.
I did this because I had used all kinds of ad
vertised remedies, and had found them worthless,
and, some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of
ever getting well, and determined to use no reme
dies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients. It
was this that prompted me to use your remedy.
As you advertised that it was composed of huchu,
cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and
my physician as an excellent combination, and,
with his advice after an examination of the article
and consulting again with the druggist, I conclud
ed to try it. I commenced its use about eight
months ago, at which time I was confined to my
room. From the first bottle I was astonished and
gratified at the beneficial effect, and after using it
three weeks, was able to walk out. I felt much
like writing you a full statement of my case at
that time, but thought my improvement might
only be a temporary, and therefore concluded to
defer and see if it would effect a perfect cure,
knowing then it would be of greater value to you,
and more satisfactory to me.
. . .
I am now able to report that a cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
I have not used any now for three months, and
fell as well in all respects, as I ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant
taste and odor—a nice tonic and invigorator of the
system. Ido not mean to be without it whenever
occasion may require its use in such affections.

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a long
aeries of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estima.
lion, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat, have made it known as a re
liable protector against them. While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most effectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
gerous affections of the throat and lungs. As a pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in-
curable, still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to It. When nods.

toral they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro
tection from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses.
So generally are Its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, or do more
than assure the publio that its qualities are fully
maintained.
Ayer's Ague Cure,
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb

and indeed all the affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatio
poisons.
As its name implies, it does Cure. and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bismuth,
Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous BUbstance
whatever, it in nowise injures any patient. The
number and importance of its cures in the ague dis
tricts, are literally beyond account, and we believe
without a parallel in the history of Ague medicine.
Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgments we
receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate
cases, and where other remedies had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be pro-
tected by taking the AGUE CURE daily.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity
of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is
an excellent remedy, producing many truly re
markable cures, where other medicines had failed.

be informed of its virtues or uses.
_ . . _ ..
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber
cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows
its presence by eruptions on the shin, or foul Weer.
attons on some part of the body. hence the occa

visable, even when no active symptoms of disease
appear. Persons afflicted with the following com

But long continued use of this medicine will cure

as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the
