Perfumes as Preventives nj Moodi
ness. —Mouldiness is occasioned by the
growth of minute vegetation. Ink, paste,
leather and seeds most frequently suffer
by it. A clove will preserve ink; any es- ■
sential oil answers equally well. Leather
inay be kept free from mould by the same
substances. Thus, Russian leather, which
is perfumed with the tar of birch, never
becomes mouldy; indeed, it prevents it
occurring in other bodies. A few drops
of any essential oil will keep books entire
ly free from it For harness, oil of tur- j
pentine is recommended. Alum and rosin
are used to preserve bookbinder's paste,
but ineffectually: oil of turpentine succeeds
better; but, by small quantities of oil of
peppermint, anise, cassia, paste has been
preserved for several years. Dr. Maccul
locli recommends the addition to the flour
and water of some brown sugar and a lit- I
tie corrosive sublimate; the sugar keeping
it flexible when dry, and the sublimate
preventing it from fermenting, and from j
being attacked by insects. A few drops
of anv of the essential oils may be added i
to the paste when it is made. It dries
when exposed to the air, and may be used
by merely wetting it. Seeds may also be
preserved by the essential oils; and this is .
of great consequence when they are sent ;
to a distance. Of course, moisture must
be excluded as much as possible, as the ;
oil of ottos prevents only the bad effects
of moulds.— Family Friend.
'J'E Til ERIN G COWS TO PREVENT
INJURY.
Take a tough light pole, ten or twelve
feet long, to a blacksmith, and let him bend
over each end and rivet fast a hoop of
iron, and insert into it a swivel ring.—
Attach a chain with a strap to the cows
horns, of sufficient length to reach the
ground when the animal stands up; this i
lower end to be attached to the swivel on
the pole. Fasten to the other end of the
pole a chain of any suitable length, with |
its free end, armed with a wedge shaped
piece of iron eighteen inches long, to be j
driven into the ground with a billet of
wood, and your cow can thus lie tethered :
without any danger of entanglement, while
the pasture will feed one-third more.—fen- (
ces dispensed with, and shrubbery not i
broken, by being run into when the animal j
is frantic with ilies.— Country Gentleman, i
A WRINKLE ABOUT THE AGE OF !
HORSES.
A few days ago we met a gentleman
from Alabama, who gave us a piece of
information in regard to ascertaining the
age of a horse, after he or she has passed
the ninth year, which was new to us, and
will be we are sure to most of our readers,
it is this: alter tiie horse is nine years old,
a wrinkle comes on the eyelid at the upper
corner of the lower lid, and every year
thereafter he. has one well-defined wrinkle
for each year over nine. If, for instance, '
a horse has three wrinkles, he is twelve;
if four, he is thirteen.
Add the number of wrinkles to nine, and
you will always get it. So says the gen
tleman: and he is confident it will never !
fail. As a good many people have horses j
over nine it is easily tried. If true, the i
horse dentist must give up his trade.— '

j Mr. H. M. Bowman—Dear .Sir:—l feel it my duty to let
! you know what your compound has done for toy daugh
| ter, and wish you to publish it if you can in hope that
! some suffering one may be induced by it to try your val
! liable medicine and be cured. My daughter was married
| in 1853, and went to Cincinnati to live, where her bus
j band (James Iloyt,) was engaged in business. In six
mouths after her husband died, and I sent for Iter to come
I home, where in four months she was confined and caught
| cold which settled on her lungs. It seemed as though we
| could get nothing to help her. We tried six different
{ physicians for over one year and then sent to New Vork
to a celebrated physician there, and she took medicine
from him for eight months; but he could not cure her.—
Her cough was fixed and stubborn and seemed as though
it would tear her breast during the paroxysm of cough,
and her breathing was at times very difficult. Failing to
get relief from physicians, we thought we would try Ay-
I er's Cherry Pectoral, and she look it regular for sever
i weeks, but it did her uo permanent good. We then tried
.Sellers' Imperial Cough Syrup, but with ail she still be
came worse, and it seemed as though she was beyond
; cure, when one day my wife was in at one of our neigh
! bor's bouses (Mr. Muyness') aod she saw ih rn give your
; Vegetable Compound to one of their children for a cough
and she got three or four doses to bring home and try it.
After toy daughter had taken it she breathed a little ea
ler, and we Sent and got a bottle of it, ami when it was
taken there was a marked change for ttie better, i then
got six bottles, the most of which she look as directed
until finally cured —it is three mouths since, and she has
not had a symptom of the old complaint, and is getting as
lusty as she ever was. We all unite in our prayers to
Cod that you may be prospered and that jour Vegetable
Compound may be the means of restoring health to many,
as it has to one who is dear to us ; we cheerfully recom
mend it to the public as the best medicine for Lung Dis
eases that we ever got hold of. Try it suffering one and
see. Believe nte, my dear sir, to ever remain
