All hedges should be kept in shape and well out back. —For worms on cabbage, lice on collards, curculio on plum trees, spray with old sour buttermilk. Keep the milk until itis a . week old and useit freely. It is quick and sure death to bugs and worms and not at all hurtful to trees, plants or man, as some other remedies might be. —The best mode of renovating old, worn- out farms is to raise sheep on them. But in raising sheep the land should be divided into fields and something grown thereupon; the crop only reaching a height sufficient for the use of the sheep. The animals should never be compelled to hunt for their food. No profit can he made on sheep un- less they receive care and assistance. With the production of wool, mutton and lamb, and the gradual enriching of the soil, the profit is sure in the end. Do not expect too much in one year, but keep on, and good results will surely follow. —A peck of lime, air slacked in fine pow- der, may be advantageously scattered about each apple or pear tree for a distance of 10 feet in each direction. This should be done | at once, and it will soon be carried down by the rains. Unthrifty fruit treee that are in grass land should be plowed so as to break and turn under the sod before the lime is applied. The grass tends to ex- haust the soil and starve the trees. But in plowing care must be taken not to break the larger roots; the smaller roots may be broken with advantage, as it is sort of root pruning which is beneficial to the trees, bus large roots are apt to throw up suckers when they are torn, and the check to the tree is too great. —There are two ways of completely de- stroying weeds. One is to let them have an opportunity to grow, and, by frequent cul- tivating turn. them under as fast as they make their appearance ; the other being to crowd them out by growing some crop that will not give the weeds a chance to grow. No system of caltivation will kill all the weeds if a crop is desired—such as corn— for the graes and weeds will only be kept down so long as cultivation lasts, especial- ly as corn is usually “laid by’’ at a time when the weeds are producing seeds, thus establishing themselves for the succeeding year. Asa test of what supposed clean culture of corn may be, simply cut down a row of stalks and a row of weeds will re- main. As a single weed produces thou- sands of seeds the labor of destroying the weeds mnst be repeated next season. —-A mistake is often made by setting the lawn mower to cut too short, and there is sometimes not enough of leaf growth left to give strength to the roots of the grass. A more natural condition is given by cut- ting a little higher, the lawn is made more like velvet, and there would be less danger of the earth below being dried or burns by exposure to the sun. Owners and garden- ers are sometimes puzzled to know what to do under the shade of trees where grass will not grow freely. The best remedy is a free seeding with Kentucky blue grass, which will endure shade better than most other lawn grasses. Another mode of treatment is to cover the ground around the trees and beneath their shade with some hardy ever- green running plans, as the periwinkle or ivy; or itis well to keep the lawn and shade trees in separate allotments. —There is always difficulty in removing a broody hen, and unless much care is tak- en she will leave the nest. She ought to be moved in a very low box or basket, with plenty of soft straw to keep her warm. Pus false eggs into the basket, and cover her over with a beavy cloth, to keep the light out. If she intends to sit, she will, when the basket is uncovered carefully by night —no lamp or lantern—show unmistakable signs when you happen around next day. It she does not mean business she will leave her eggs. If she shows a disposition to re- main in the nest leave her on the dumb eggs (artificial ones if you have them) for a day or two, and then put good ones under her, keeping her well covered with a heavy cloth "till she thoroughly takes to the ness. —Popoorn is a good crop to raise, espe- cially if the grower is able to keep it a sea- son or two in case of low prices. Only the white varieties are suitable for market, as most of the corn goes into popcorn balls, and the nearer white these are the better. The brand 1 colored Tarieties je sure to spoil the effect acd sale of the pop article. In culture some readily aR, fertilizer should be planted with the seed, the young plants are not so sturdy as the sprouts of other corn. A good start does wonders for the crop. Too much hoein can hardly be given. The drill system 'is the easiest and most profitable, aud three feet between the rows is sufficient. Rice corn, which is the most desirable of any for planting, can stand 13 or 16 in. apart in the drill, and do well if the soil is good. 'Buy- | Th ers’ demands are imperative'and must be met. They are that the corn must he at least one year old, to pop well, and entire-. ly free from mold, staining by mice and mice odors, free from silk and husks, and in every way sweeb and bright. § —In raising pigs remember that exercise develops the muscles and has a tendency to produce lean meat. Plenty of good water is as essential to the health of the hogs as good food. When a pig isa suckling is when the foundation is laid for its future prosperity. Sunshine, fresh air and ground are all necessary to the health,growth and develop- ment of pigs. In many cases a quart of charcoal given $0 a brood sow that has taken too much feed will relieve her. The true value of a sow as a breeder can- not be fully known until she has farrowed two or three litters. To a very considerable extent the health and thrift of the pigs depends upon the health and thrift of the sows while carry- ing them. Thrift, not hunger, should prompt the pig to take exeroise. The pig should never be compelled to squeal for his food. Sows that have a very nervous tempera- ment should be avoided. | of the summer fashions. & | it its note of originality. A fashionable linen gown which is worth studying, because there is so much that is new and pretty about it, is made of fawn colored linen. The skirt is cut to show the approved outline, snug fitting over the hips and full and flaring below the knees. To- ward the hem the trimwing is introduced, which consists of medallion shaped inserts of the linen thickly studded with hand em- broidered ' French knots worked in baby- blue silk, and with each medallion finished with a border of Paraguay lace. The skirt was made up over a drop skirt of baby- blue silk, the color of which showed through the meshes of the lace. The bodice was a oollarless blouse with fine tucks forming a yoke, and also used on the upper part of the sleeve and with the embroidered and lace edged medallions introduced as a deco- ration. Another fashionable form of the collar- less blouse is shown in a dainty dress of ecru voile, trimmed with narrow bands of stitched taffeta in the same shade. ~~ The skirt is made with' flounces at the bottom, each edged with a band of taffeta. The blouse is a graceful, pleated model cut with a V-shaped neck and trimmed with a broad cape collar of cream color crochet lace, fitting well over the shoulders, being finished in front with stole ends. A too florid complexion should be treat- ed by careful dieting. With some persons plethora is hereditary, but in almost all cases undue redness of the face may be moderated by hygienic methods. With re- gard to animal foods, for instance, prefer- ence should be given to mutton, poultry, rabbits and game. Beef, pork, made dishes, rich soups, and all stimulating foods should be avoided. Fish, milk puddings and fruits, especially those of an acid kind are $0 be recommended. No wine or spirits should be taken, and a ban should also be placed upon mals liquors and strong coffee. Mental ' excitement. heated rooms, tight lacing and undue physical exertion are all to be avoided as tending to increase the trouble. . Daily walking exercise is most necessary, and a course of physical exercises may, in. many cases, be recommended. Local remedies are, of course, only pallia- tive, but a florid complexion can he toned down hy the judicicus use of a good face lotion or cream, and either of these may be used as a basis for an adhesive face powder. Among the smartest of the traveling cos- tumes are the skirt and cost suits of either taffeta or light weight Wooltex garments in shepherd’s check. In black and white these costumes are exceptionally good style, made with a three quarter length jacket and an instep length skirt, which shows a velveteen binding. They are worn with a black patent leather belt and both the skirt and the coat show applied straps. Some- times the jacket is in Russian blouse style and then again it is a Norfolk, or is made to copy the lines of the corset coat. It is the smart shirtwaist hat which the vacation girl wears when starting off on her journey. She is just as particular about this ae she is that her shoes and gloves are comfortable. If the sailor hat is becoming to ber she may wear that. The new sailor this summer shows a much wider brim than last year, which, in a way, is due to the fact of the popularity of the shoulder cape. Nothing could be more incongruons than the young woman with her coat made with very broad shoulder capes and wear- ing upon her bead a narrow brimmed little sailor hat. Proportion and the correct re- lation of each garment she wears to the oth- er should be a serious study with the young Woman who wishes to be effectively dress- Basques range from mere strips of ma- terials to long skirts almost to the knees. a Fichu effects finish some cf the prettiest summer dresses. The more cobwebby the material the daintier the effect. ‘White canvas shoes are the prettiest to wear with ‘white linen morning suits in the country or at the seashore. Though well drawn in, the deep girdles are quite fall. It is whispered that many an old curtain has been sacrificed to trim a new dress with ‘‘antique lace.” Quaint, old time ruffles are a feature of many of the dresses that might well be called picture gowns. — Where there isa yoke effect used for bodices it always extends well down over the shoulders toshow in its moss exaggerat- ed form the fad for the long shoulder line. Sleeves that fit closely above the elbow finishing with a band of lace, then falling into a full bishop sleeve below the elbow. finishing again at the wrist with a second ‘band of lace, are among the most favored models for morning bodices of very thin materials. 3 The all white coat is a prominent feature It is always loose fitting, but comes in varied lengths. Made of white mohair and trimmed with stitched bands of the white taffeta, it is exceeding- ly smart in style. Of course, in a coat of this sort, it is the little touches which give It may be the way the onff is made, the ont of the shoul- der cape, or the trimming. Ina particular coat of white mohair . the full sleeve was laid in pleats and finished with a very deep Continental cuff, bound with white taffeta. e coat was collarless and made with a deep shoulder cape, so trimmed with stitch- ed taffeta bands shat it had a double effect. Down the front were two long stoles, edged with taffeta silk aud decorated with white silk cord pendant ornaments. This same ‘model voat is stylish in all black aud is made up in etamine, as ‘well as mohair. ep A ultra touch of Paris origin, finishing many smart toilettes, is a dainty little pelerine, ; Hand drawnwork effects are in the front rank of separate stocks of thin white lawn or linen. * : Paquin is giving much attention to his sleeve, which is quite a feature on his gowns. Nearly all the new tailormades in that establishment bave sleeves composed of a full ‘‘pout’’ from the shoulder, gather- ed just below the elbow into a deep cuff, stitched or embroidered, and rather loose- fitting, from whence falls a closely gather- ed frill of hemstitched muslin or lawn. All sorts of gathered skirtsare in the highest favor. Embroidery is applied to finest lace with good effect. Triple capes are over the sleeves of some obarming oloth snits, the capes disappear- ing under a graduated hox pleat at the back. Few people realize the importance of free water drinking says the Health Culture Magazine. Yet the large proportion of water, not only in the body, but elsewhere throughout the earth, would of itself indi- cate the importance of water. The human body contains about three-fourths water, while most of the articles nsed as food con- tain from three-fourths to nine-tenths wa. ter. ‘In the human system there is no structure or organ which does not contain water. The teeth, the hardest and den- sest tissue in the body, contain 10 per cent. of water; the bones are 13 per cent. water, the muscles are three-quarters water and the blood is four-fifths water. Gastric juice is 94 per cent. perspiration, 98 per cent. and saliva 99 per cent. water. The blood stream, consisting of about seven quarts of fluid, circulates through its tubular conduits, the arteries. capillaries and veins, at the speed of about seven miles an hour, 168 miles per day. The blood is in reality only a solution in water of certain matters out of which, by a com- plex system of filters, all the other fluids of the body are formed. In other words, the blood holds, in solution, all the ele- ments ont of which the gastric juice, the saliva, the intestinal fluids, the synovial fluid and a dozen other fluids are pro- duced. When is is mentioned that during twenty-four hours these wonderful little filter cells secrete from the blood about from four to eight quarts of gastric juice, about one guart of saliva, about two quarts of intestinal and pancreatic juice, as well as smaller quantities of many other fluids —when this is understood, some idea may be gathered of the immense importance of water, which is as has been said, the real fluid of the body. A great authority on physiology has said : ater is a very im- portant food element, and all physiologic changes take place in a watery solution. Water is the medium through which the body is nourished.” Water is constantly leaving the body through four avenues, the skin, the lungs, the bowels and the kidneys. Of the total amonut of water leaving the body, about 5 per cent. or one-twentieth, is excreted through the alimentary tube. Oune-fifth, or 20 per cent., is carried off by the lungs in the form of aqueous vapor. About one- third leaves by way of the skin, the fluid known as perspiration, while nearly one- half is voided by the kidneys. The water thus carried out of the body is heavily laden with various poisonous matters, the retention of which would be not merely in- jurious, but fatal. For instance the per- spiration contains about one-half of 1 per cent. of urea, besides other poisons, lacta- tes, sudorates and inorganic salts. The urine contains about 2 per cent., of urea, also uric acid, ocreatin, exinthin tyrosin byppuric acid, lencin, oystin and taurin, besides many other excrementions poisons, As one of the greatest pathologists now living said . ‘The body is a factory of poisons.” And upon the ability to relieve itself of these poisons—upon the incessant aotivity of the organs intrusted with such work of elimination depends not enly the health, but the very life of the individual. There is a story to the effect that some where a great pageant was given, a feature of which was a beautiful little boy who was to pose as a cherub, Somebody thought it would be a good idea to cover the little boy with gold paint. So the skin was covered with the paint, and in less than an bour the little boy was a real cherub, that is to say, he was dead. The story may or may not be true. The point is that it might have been true. For to paint the skin and thus obstruct the pores would mean the retention of a quantity of poison Sufivient to cause death in a very short time. Now from the foregoing, we see that all the vital processes take place in a watery solution, and that the excretion of waste poison of the body is accomplished by a process of washing out with water through the four avenues of elimination known as skin, lungs, bowels and kidneys. From what has been said it can readily be understood why it is that, although a man can live for from sixty to eighty days without food, as has been proved on several occasions, yet if deprived of fluids for six or eight days he dies a terrible death. In these cases death would result from two causes; first, retention of poison for the ‘elimination of which water 'in the forms of sweat, vapor from the lungs, urine, eto., was necessary, and, second, from a stop- page of those vital functions in which wa- ter is used. The most striking and distinctive peoun- liarity of water is that it is a solvent—a cleanser. The function of water in the body or elsewhere is to loosen, dissolve and carry off such matters as can be de- tached from their environment—in other | words, dirt and impurities. The water taken into the human system has pecaliar- ly this effect : It goes in clean; it comes out dirty. : In the prevention and treatment of disease this elimination of waste is the most important factor. An ounce of elim- ination is worth a ton of medication. Aid in securing this elimination the most im- portant measure is the free drinking of pure water—water which shall flush the system of those Joisons the retention of which is so deadly. : Recipes Worth Trying. BEATEN BiscuIT.—Into a quart of sifted flour rub a teaspoonfal of lard, add a little salt and wet to very stiff dough with a gill of water and one of milk. Put through a biscuit beating machine, putting it in again and again until you have work- ed it for about ten or fifteen minutes, then cut into biscuit, baving the dough about ong-quarter inch thick. Bake for fifteen minutes in a floured tin, after picking each biscuit with a fork. Some people add one-quarter teaspoonful of baking powder to the dry flour. It im- proves the biscnit. ' ° : ANGLES FooD.—8ift oue cup of flour six times with a teaspoonful of cream of tartar. Beat the whites of six eggs until they stand alone, and beat into them grad- ually a ball cup of sifted powered sugar; add the flour in the same way,and turn the mixture into a clean ungreased pan’ with a funnel in the middle, Bake carefully in a steady oven. | At the end of twenty-five minutes test the loaf with a broom-straw When baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it stand in the tin for ten minutes before losening it gently from the sides and turnit out npon a clean cloth. Cover with a white icing. \ Dxyir’s Foop.—Halt a cup of chocolate, grated; half a cup of sweet milk; half a cup of brown sugar. Boil these together until as thick as cream, and let the mix- ture cool. Cream a half cup of buster with a cup of brown sugar, add wo beaten eggs, ‘two-thirds of a cup of milk and vanilla flavoring. Mix well, then stir in the boiled mixture, add two cups of flonr sifted with a heaping teaspoonful of baking powder. Bake in layers and, when done, put to- gether with boiled frosting. working one. The best satisfaction comes of service performed. Only it is necessary to keep the bowels regular and the organs active. There’s nothing like Dr. King’s New Life Pills for that. They render serv- ice gently, yet thoroughly. 25¢, at Green’s drug store. . —‘‘Yes, Miss Wose; I am go- ing to be the Fool-killer at the ball to- night.” Miss Rose—‘‘I am go sorry, Reggy.”” Reggy — ‘Why sorry, about what 2’ Miss Rose—‘“That yon should plan self-destruction.” EE ——————————— Medical. —Reggy AYER’S To be sure, you are growing old.
