A Little Advice to Farmers.
It would be well if some of the farmers of
Porry county would take the following
good advice home to their hearts, and make
an effort to put it into practico : Help
your wives in every way you can, trivial
though it may seem to you. For instance :
keep an extra pair of shoes or slippors in
the hall or entry, and always romepibor to
change your dirty boots before entering her
clean rooms. Then you may be sure of a
smile of welcome, as no dirt will be left af
ter you for her to clean up. In the evening
comb your hair as carefully as ever you did
in your courting days, put on a clean coat
or dressing gown, and when you take your
paper to read, do not read to yoursolf, and
leave her to her lonesome thoughts whilo
sowing or mending, but remember that sho,
too, Las been working bard all day, and is
still working. Read to her whatever inter
ests you, so that her interests and opin
ions may grow with yours and that she may
comprehend something besides love stories,
of whioh too many have read more than
they should. You will both be happier,
and being a farmer's or a mechanic's wife
will not bo such a dreadful tiresome and
lonely life as many girls have now reason to
think it is.
A Wood Cistern.
A Correspondent who has had much ex
perience gives the following instruction re
garding the method of making a good cis
tern. The pcopor way is to dig your hole in a
circular form not exceeding 12 feet in diam
eter, and deep enough to hold the quantity
of water you wish to have in store. Take
care to put your hole down as straight as
possible, so that when your wall comes to
be laid up, all the intervening space be
tween bank and wall may be filled up sol
id leaving no space to give from the presure
of the water. If there are large spaces that
require filling with earth, you should ram
it down tightly. Your wall should be at
least nine inches thick. Your mortar
should be one half bushel of cement to two
bushels of good lime mortar, with the
joints laid as closely as can be in order to
have a good job. A cistern of the diame
ter I mention can be built without a pier to
support the crown ; after being finished, it
should have a good coat of cemont mortar,
which I generally make of one lialf cement
to oue half of good sharp sand. Your
crown and bottom should bo equal to the
thickness of the sides, unions you have
sand to contend with, in that case your
bottom" should be four inches more.
The Dest Breed of Cows.
Thomas M. Harvey, residing near West
Grove, Chester county, has been testing
several grade of cows, with the following
important results :
It took 18 quarts of milk from a grade
Durham cow to produce one pouud of but
ter j while quarts of milk taken from a
thorough bred Guernsey cow, produced the
same amount of butter. In ordinary dai
ries, twelve quarts of milk to one pound of
butter are considered a fair average. The
above tests shows that the milk of the
Guernsey cow was almost three times as
rich in butter as that of the Durham. In
this respect, however, different oows of the
same breed may, and doubtless do, vary
much. The quantity of milk given by each
cow should also be taken Into the account.
A Durham that would give three times as
much as a Guernsey, even though not so
rich, would be even more valuable. Buch
testa, however, as those made by Mr Har
vey, clearly show the great Importance of
the question to every dairyman who would
secure the greatest return from his capital
invested.
A Boot Back.
One 6f the greatest troubles of the neat
housewife in tho country, results from mud
dy boots of those members of the family
who have to work in the fields, the stables
and the barnyard. The wet boots must be
dried and are generally left under the kitoh
- en stove, where their presence is very dis
agreeable. Now, to have a neat kitchen,
there should be a boot rack placed behind
the stove, in which the damp boots may be
placed to dry. Buch a contrivance has been
found a great convenience. It has three
shelves about four feet long, tou inches
wide, and placed a foot apart. At one end
a bout-jack is fixed by hinges so that, when
not in use, it is folded against one end of
the rack and secured by a button. Tbei
is also a stand for cleaning boots at the
front, whioh also folds up wbon not in use,
and the blacking brushes are plaoed on the
shelves behind the stand, and are out of
sight, and when folded they hung down out
of the way. The rack should be made of
dressed pine boards, aud stained some dark,
durable color.

to. It is twenty-one Inches long, thirteen
in circumference, about four pounds in
weight, and has more eyes than Argus.
THOMPSON'S
and Ague Powders !
Fever
FOB THI
PERMANENT CURE OF CHILLS AND FE
VER, DUMB AGUE, OR ANY FORM
OF INTERMITTENT FEVER I
The Greatest Discovery of the Age I
THERE are no diseases so debilitating in
their effects upon the constitution as tho
above, and none more difficult to cure by tho
usual modes of practice. The Fever and Ague
Powders will effect a cure in cases of the long
est standing, as well as prove a preventive in
the forming stages of disoase. Being purely
Vegetablo, they act with certainty on the dis
ease, totally eradicating it from the system,
and preventing a return at any future period.
Why waste your money and health lu trying
every medicine you hear of. when Thompson's
Fevorand Auo Powdors have never failed to
cure the Chills In any case.
REASONS WHY TnEY ONLY SHOULD BE
U8ED !
Their Itcjmtntion in EatabUshttl. Thousands
of testimonials havo been received, showing
that these Powders have performed miracles iu
curing cases of long standing, many of them
considered hopeless.
There it no Itlfk in Taking Them. they
contain nothing injurious, and, therefore, cause
none of those lingering diseases so often the re
sult of the many nostrums of the day. Physi
cians recommend them as far superior to Qui
nine, or any other known remedy.for they leave
the system in a healthy state, and tho patient
beyond the probability of a relapse.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS. The
genuine are put up In square tin boxes, with
"Thompson's Fever and Ague Powders"
stamped on the lid. and the signature of
"Thompson & Crawford," on tho wrapper.
No others can possibly bo genuine.
