One of the severest tests of friend ship recorded in the annals of history has just come to light in Fasadena in the course of the trial of Mexican who stuck his knife twice into the nbdomen of a loving chum. The in jured man has arisen from his bed to explain to the Court that the attempt of his friend to engage in a little sportive vivisection hns not altered the sentiment of affectionate regard existing between them. The spirit of the carver was said to be altogether amicable, and the mutual attachment of former days hns not been impaired. After all, the Shakespearean critics may have been guilty of a malioious hoax in leading an unsuspecting pub lio to believe that Shjlock entertained in his heart anything but an undying affection for the Merchant of Venice when he domandod his poandof flesh. Los Angeles (Cal.) Times. A LETTER TO WOMEN From Mrs. James Corrigran. For seventeen years I have suffered. Periods were so very painful that I would have to go to the doctor every month. lie said that I had an enlargement of the womb, and told my husband that I must undergo an operation, as I had tumors in the womb, and it was a case of life or death. I was ope rated upon twice, but it did not seem to do me an v good, it made tna very weak. I was troubled with the leu corrhoea a great deal. I also suffer ' with the i headache, siting pells, back ache all the time, terrible pain in tuy left side, chills, loss of appetite, and could not sleep nights. After taking several bottles of Lydia E. Tinkham's Vegetable Com pound, some Liver Fills, and using your Sanative Wash, I recovered. I can eat well, and every one that sees me tells me I am a different per son. I can do all my own work, sleep well and feel well. I am growing stronger every day, and am able to go out and enjoy a walk and not feel all tired out when I return, as I used to. I doctored for sixteen years, and in all those years I did not feel as well as I do at the present time. I wish that every woman that is troubled as I was, would try that medicine. Oh! it is so good to feel well, and it Is all owing to Mrs. Pinkham's kind advice and medicine. Mrs. jAUEsCotmiGAN, 284 Center St., Jamaica Plain, Mass.

C c ( ( (: (' 3 ) ) 3 ) 0 ( t ( ) Affective Sight. The school children of Baltimore have been undergoing examination to teat the condition of their eyesight, with some interesting resnlts. Out of fifty-three thousand pupils over nine thousand were found with such defec tive eyesight as to make it unsafe for them to continue their studies. The "report was that thu percentage of nor mal vision was fot'.nd to bo, first grade, 35; seoond, 41 ; third, 17; fourth, 49; fifth, 48 ;sixth, 48; seventh, 54; and eighth, 56 per cent. A curious result of the examination is that there is a steady decrease in defeotive eyesight from the second to the eighth grade ; and another important item is that a number of children who were pro nounced almost hopelessly stupid by their teachers have been amazingly im proved and are making fair progress in their studies sinoe they have adopted their glasses. This experi ment has awakened general interest among teachers, who are wondering if much of the stupidity noticeable Jin many backward pupils may not be at tributable to the difficulty they find in distinguishing objects, and whether tbey may not be benefited by the use of glasses. A Tower That Cinnot Be Stolen. According to the Electric Review, it has been decided by court in Ger many that electricity cannot be stglon. An elcctrio light company discovered that a man had tapped the wires and was using eleotrioity as power. Several thousand amperes of current had been consumed when the discovery was made. The question arose in court whether an invisible, intangible material could be carried off. With a curious disregard for the very evident faots in the case, the court ruled that only a movable, ma terial object could be stolen. They do cided that electricity did not come under that head, and the appropriator of the electric current was allowed to go free.

In their annual report the commis sioners of fisheries and game of Massa chusetts state that the propagation and distribution of Mongolian pheas ants has been successfully carried on during the past season at the State aviaries. Something over two hun dred chicks, which had been allowed their freedom in the large inolosure, were trapped in October and pnt in a oovered corral twenty-eight by sixty feet in area. '.This proved too small for so many birds, and there was a small loss, the stronger birds maltreating the weaker ones, This will be obvi ated next year by sending the birds out as soon as they are trapped. A few birds were distributed last year to responsible persons with the understanding that they were to breed and turn them out in their re spective localities. Only three were successful in raising birds, but they are confident that past experience will lead to success in the future, and that thus the ruffed grouse, which are rap idly nearing extermination, will be re placed.

The amount of milk produced from our herd for the months of February, March and April last was 100,385 pounds or over fifty tons. The herd averaged during this time from forty to fifty-one milkers, writes A. 11. Southwick in New England Home stead. Twenty of these pows had been milking from six to twelve months, the rest having produced calves ot differ ent times during the winter. All food is given dry. The hay fed is what is known to the market as mixed clover. The grain is a mixture of oats and com in equal parts, ground, with best qual ity wheat bran and middlings mixed in to suit the conditions of the various animals. Each animal is fed accord ing to her condition and needs. The cow that feels the best and is in the most robust health all the time, if a good one, is the one that will produoe the most profitable milk for his owner. I do not expect to get something from nothing, and I do not expect to get a good How of milk without feed, but it is certain that more depends upon the perfect condition of the cow than a great amount of feed, when the amount of milk produced is considered. Our cows evidently were raised in neighborhoods where excellent grade and native cows are kept and where good bulls have been used to the ex clusion of scrubs. Appearances indi cate that Holstoin, Ayrshire and Short horn grades are about the only breeds represented. It is found tnat good size, good form and a good mellow skin are desirable features to buy. Doubtless there are manv herds that can show a greater reoord, but I think tho doings of this herd can be consid cred good and it shows to a degree the advantage of weeding ont poor aui mals. I am a firm believer in keeping abreast of the times in dairying, and 1 feel sorry for the man who is willing to continue in the ruts, bnt when we consider the subject of feed for cows I question sometimes whether we follow common sense or fads. It seems to me there can be bnt one idea, and it is that whatever suits the cow the best that'which is the means of keep ing her in the most robust condition of health, and causes her to produce the largest quantity of milk, noh in butter fat is the cheapest feed and the only profitable one, whatever the cost may be. Ureen forage in sum mer, the beet of pasture if possible, with good sonnd grain, as corn and oats finely ground, with best coarse wheat bran mixed with it in reason able quantity, to suit the oondition of the animal, is found to be reliable and satisfactory. In winter good, sweet, early ont hay, vegetables, same mix ture of grain, is reliable and as oheap, all things considered, as any of the variety of methods now followed in dairy farming. What has nature pro vided the capacious stomach of the perfeot dairy cow for if not for the purpote of receiving and digesting the sweet and fragrant hay and grass which produces the highest and most satisfactory results? One is disgusted with the gauntod appearance of the noble cow that is oompelled to satisfy herself with a little stingy ration of ensilage, with some nostrum in the shape of grain, ail for the reason lLat tho cost is the lowest and reduced to the minimun. I do not believe it ever paid a man to ride a bobby, and I do not believe it ever will pay to feed en silage indiscriminately, as the majority do. But I do think this class of feed has its place and can be used to great advantage when farmers become elu eated up to its most profitable use. I believe farmers err in feeding too much grain at one time. Cattle that are receiving grain, and especially is this true ot milch cows, would receive very much more benefit from such feed if the rations were given in small er quantity and oftener. This plan is far safer for the health as well. Xhe cow that gets six quurts of grain a day will get tue most benefit by giving this at six thnereut ieeds. lhis is ex treme, as most of us aro not situated so we can carry ont such a plau, but it serves to illustrate the idea. I have found satisfaction in going slow when considering the advisability of chung ing auy well-tried and highly satisfao tory method of feeding tor somettun new. PAHM AND GARDEN NOTES. L'se the best seed of the best vsri eties. If any colonies are queenlese, unit them with others. Don't expect your trees to produce something for nothing. 1' eed them Hunt the insect eggs and nests on your trees, and destroy the source of much loss to your fruit next season The production and management of manure deserves as carelui attentio as the production of any other farm crop. For eggs alone, no breeds surpas the Lot'horus and Miuorcus. 1'or egg and moat, the Plymouth Kocks are better. Currants and gooseberries require lots of well rottud manure wotkod down iu the boil around thoiu with good cultivation. If the poultry is given a littlo of the ouro so freely allowed to the other stock it will pay a belter percentage . ou thu iiive&tuiunl, Fonltry can never be raised success fully if the poultry house bo damp. oultry must have dry nouses and runs to be thrifty. The farmer's garden is the most profitable pinoe of ground on the farm, if it only produces all kinds of garden crops for the family. Keep closo watch that the mice and rabits do not injure tho trees. Keep the snow tramped around the tree and protected with lath or wire soroon np as high as a rabit can roach. There has been too much plowing too mnoh washing and waste of fertil ity of hilly lands. Flans should be formed which ultimately result in snob lands being seeded down oftener and pastured more. The ideal berry ground would be, first, a rioh, sandy loam with olay sub soil. Seoond, a dark loam or gravelly loam mixed slightly with clay, and a day subsoil, all having a southerly or eastern slope. A Massachusetts farmer speaks kind words for the mole. He says they live upon worms which infest most seed land. They operate in rich, loose ground because worms are more abundant there. Ton con never get a uniform flock il you use mongrel or grade males, or if yon change the breed every year or so. Change blood often, but use a male of the same breed, and you will see im provement each year. Give every tree that bore heavily last season a good top dressing of well rotted manure, out as far around at least as the branches extend. If the ground is in cultivation, fork this well down into the soil in next spring s cultivation. In every neighborhood where special attention is given to gardening or fruit growing there should be a horticul tural society. There are always some good seed grown at these meetings, and they help to make one enthusiastic n the business. Exercise is a necessity, both for health and for eggs. Confine a lot of hens and feed them to produce eggs, and unless some means have been pro vided to make them scratch for the grain given them, the result will be lot of over-fat, lazy fowls that Bit around ard do nothing. Where the peach tree is not pruned long, slender branches form, and theso roduoe fruit mainly at their onter ends. Tho tree will carry much more fruit if properly distributed, and will produce more perfect frnit. The cut ting will not be attended with injury f done while tne tree is dormant. That tho peach trees should be left to grow at will is an outgrown idea. Give the children a chance to make some money. A couple of bens, ducks, geese or turkeys will start them to figuring and to working. The little money earned will be a great pleasure to them. You can afford to give them the grain to feed their fowls, if they will put in the work. They will thus be tanght to Btndy the needs of the poultry, and beoonie wise in all that regards feathered stock. Their little trials and triumphs will be remem bered by them in the years to corre, and cause them to think with pleasure of the old home. WISE WORDS. As ranch bitterness and hate oan le expressed in a word, as can be fired out of a gun. A good man finds good wherever he goes, because ttie good in nun brings out good in others. Let a woman be weighed down witb responsibilities and she will far more frequently light her own way ont of them than succumb to them. There are few mortals so insensible that their affections cannot be gained by mildness, their confidence by sin cerity, their hatred by scorn or ne glect. Every honest occupation to whioh a man sets his hand would raise him into a philosopher if ho mastered all the knowledge that belonged to his craft. Keal friendship is a slow grower, and never thrives uuIcbs grafted upon a stook of known and reciprocal merit. Remember to make a difference be tween companions and friends. There is no law with regard to eat ing and drinking and manner of living which cau bo hud down as applicable to all individuals. Each person must find out the law whioh applies to him self and obey it. Taste is not only a part and index of morality, it is the only morality. The tirst and last and trial question to any living being is, "What do you like?" Tell mo what you like, and I'll tell you what you are. Among all the virtues, humility, the lowest, ispre-emiuent. It is the safest. because it is always an anohor ; and that man may be truly said to live the most conteut iu his calling who strives to live within theoompass of it. Every man is a debtor to his pro fession, says an old essayist, from the whioh as men of course do seek to re. cover oountenanoe and profit, so ought they of duty to endeavor themselves by way of amends to be a help and ornament thereunto. Appetite of the Burrowing Owl. A southern California baby barrow iug owl, live weeks old, eats half its weight of raw beef at a single meal, and does not sutler in the slightest degree from dyspepsia. It takes three square meals of this size daily, and even then appears to be hungry at bedtime. Au observing pbysioian be lieves that valuable digestive aids for the human stomach oan be extraoted from tnese owls of large appetite, which will be more elncuoions possibly than are the pepsin preparations now secured from the internals ol pigs. Should this belief be confirmed the market for California owls ought to be considerable, and the demand for the birds might warrant the establiuhment uf uwl mux. jos. TEMPERANCE. A sad rtrTr.

These latter are sometimes so buried in their bcau tiful plumage that they look as if they onld like to part with some of it, even to adorn a hat. This would, in a great measure, stop this wholesale wicked killing of our beautiful song birds and insect-killing birds. Ifobins, thrushes, wrens and many others are not pretty on a hat. The English sparrow oan furnish all the small feathers needed, and a pig eon farm the next size. Then poultry leathers we could have from the ducks aud oliiokeus aud turkeys that wo have eaten.
