The Family Pfiysivinn says that
there is no more valuable indication of
disease than the temperature of t lie
body as measured by the thermometer
and especially in the case of children
It gives early information of disease,
and admits of an infected child being
set apart before mischief is done. The
I'hyaician consequently advises moth
era to learn how to use a clinical ther
mometer a very simple process. The
proper temperature of the body is 98.4
Fahrenheit.

Straw paper has increased Jin price
seventy-live per cent, since last Oc
tober There are two reasons for this
remarkable advance. First, a scarcity
of straw, and second an extraordinary
demand for straw paper from Cuba,
single orders being received for 100,000
reams at a time. And what do you
think it is used for? It U saturated in
a decoction made from the stems and
refuse of the choice Havana seed leaf
tobacco, nnd when properly treated
whli flavoring extracts, licorice root,
senna, &c. made into tilling for cigars
It burns with a pure white ash pre
cisely like that of the genuine leaf
unlike thut yielded by any other
material.

tation at any station on main line of
railroad to associations or parties, wiio
will attend to placing them in the
proper waters. It is propo.-ed to have
them put out in March and April.
Letters stilting how many trout are
desired and where to be placed, should
he addressed to Benjamin L. Hewitt,
Hollidaysbuig, or Robert Dalzcll, Box
122, Pittsburgh.
From the number of strikes in
different section of the country as

seem that the laboring men of the

to the conclusion to demand an ad
vance in their wages in a slight pro
portion to the advance in all the ne
cessities of life. '

Our Special offer to Subscribers.
We desire to deal as liberally with
our patrons as we possibly can, and to
put into their hands the best news'
paper literature at the very lowest ob
tainable price. To this end we have
made such fortunate arrangements as
enable us to offer this paper, the
American Rural Home and the House
hold, all three throughout 1S80, post
paid, for only 2 To.
Under this remarkable offer your
local paper, a first-class Agricultural
and Family Weekly, and a popular
Domestic Monthly, can be had for
$l."o less than their aggregate lowest
price. In fact we give the Household
one year, and 25 cents besides to every
one who subscribes for our own paper
and The Rural Home at the bottom
price for each.
The Rural Home, published at
Rochester, N. lias long been a
eeogni.ed Agricultural and Horti
cultural authority, and its eight larg
pages are full of live, progressive,
valuable matter for the farmer and the
farmer's whole frmiiy. It has an
enviable reputation, achieved by years
of clean honest, able effort toward the
highest journalistic ideals. It is
wonderfully cheap at its sole price of
SI. 50.
The Household is a bright, practical
magazine for housewives, published
at Urattlcboro, Vt., and the only long
established monthly of its kind. It
has 2i pages, devoted to every interest
of home-keeping, and is immensely
popular with tiie ladies. Price, $1.10.
Modesty forbids us to speak of our
own paper as handsomely as we ought
Of course you will want it next year,
and you will do well to secure the
others with it in this special combina
lion specimens of the Rural Home and
Household may be had by addressing
a postal card to the Ilural Home, at
Rochester, N. Y., or by application, to
this office.
This club ofrcr will not be held open
many weeks.
