Feeding Plants Artlflcinl Food. Truiffeut give's artificial -food to plants iu the following manner: "After an analysis of the ash of the living plant, the necessary salts for a given time, such as six months, are weighed out and inclosed in a metal cover to form what is called a 'pill,' which is presumably inserted in the pot, dif fusion of the salts taking place through the folds of the metal, and the thicker the metal the slower the diffusion. As the salts dissolve and disappear tliey are replaced by a core which ex pands until it completely fills tho 'pill.' The salts have no action on the metal cover, which remains firm and hard. It is stated that the solu bility of the salts can be so regulated that a 'pill' may bo made to last three or six months, as may be desired. By this method of feeding, large well colored plants are grown in pots of less than half the usual size." . i No;"Cloek.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad ranced years are realized by compara tively few women. Their hard lives, their liability to se rious troubles on account of their pecu liar organism and their profound igno rance concerning themselves, all com bine to shorten the period of usefulness and fill their lateryears with suffering. Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make women strong. She has given advice to many that has shown them how to guard against disease and retain vigor ous health in old age. From every cor ner of the earth there is constantly com ing the most convinciug statements from women, showing the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Cora pound in overcoming female ills. Here is a letter from Mrs. J. C. Onus, of 220 Horner St., Johnstown, Pa., which is earnest and straight to the point : " Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I feel it my duty to tell all suffering women that I think your remedies are wonderful. I had trouble with my head, dizzy spells and hot flashes. Feet and hands were cold, was very nervous, could not sleep well, had kidney trouble, pain in ovaries and ci ngestion of the womb. KiDce taking your remedies I am better every way My head trouble is nil gone, have no pain in ovaries, anal am cured of womb trouble. I can eat and sleep well and am gaining in flesh. I consider your medicine the best to be bad for female troubles." The present Mrs. Pinkham's experi ence in treating female ills is unparal lelled, for years she worked side by Bide with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and for sometime past has had sole charge of the correspondence department of her great business, treating by letter as many as a hundred thousand ailing women during a single year. fGo to your grocer to-day and get a 15c. package of WdlllU K It takes the place of cof fee at the cost.

Alcohol In Medicine. The report of Dr. A. Monroe Lesser, the exeoutivo surgoon, gives the results of ob servations in regard to the use of alcohol, and points out in detail the bad effects pro duced by it. "Leading Herman, English and American physiologists," he says, "ac cept it as a fact that alcohol In small quan tities, by exciting the energies of the body, may increaso the capabilities during tho short period which Is sometimes required in diseases, but that this provision is al ways gained nt the expense ot some vital ity and a later relaxation." 80 In cases where it might be useful ia relieving In flammations, this advantage Is olTsot by the fact that while produclug this effect, It has a deleterious influence on the other tissues. He nUo points out that alcohol is not a good thing to enable the body to wlthstnud cold or fatigue, and quotes Nan sen, the Arctic explorer, to the effect that those who drank alcohol could not bear the Northern cold, and that no one of his staff was allowed to partake of It. This fact was noticed, however, long before Nan sen's time. We distinctly remember that in the time ot the old stage coaches which plied between Philadelphia and New York, that Uuring periods of told weather ex perienced drivers refused to drtuk alco holic liquors, but eon lined themselves strictly to water drinking while on their Journevs, for the reason assigned that the use of alcoholic drink rendered them less able to withstand tho exposure they were subjected to. As an evidence that it does not preserve the living tissues or furnish staying quali ties. Dr. Lessor notes that "la the English army, in its Soudan campaigns, a number of regiments reoeived curtain quantities ot alcohol, while other regiments received none, tho result showing that the latter could bear the strains of long marches far better and were better preserved than those to whom alcohol was given." In the same way he finds its effects Injurious to diges tion and deleterious In septic conditions. One of the first questions a surgeon asks nowadays when a person sustains a dan gerous Injury, is whother he has been ao oustomod to the use of alcohol, holding that the chances for recovery ot one so ad dicted are largely decreased, as compared with those of one not accustomed to its use. 80, too, athletes in training for some event re required to abstain entirely from the use of alcohol, experience showing that it greatly lessens their powers ot endurance, Trenton (N.

Because drink Isn't necessary to health. Because, on the contrary, It has been proven detrimental. Becnuse happiness doesn't depend on drinking. Because misery ofteu results therefrom. Because it (soften the ruin ot homes. Because it never helps a man in the strug gle of life. Because it hinders good ondeavor. Because It lowers the tone of a family. Because it opons the door to temptation. Because it forms a habit almost impossi ble to overcome. Because many a mother's heartache may be traced to It. Because Jails and orphan asylums pro claim its work. Because drunkards' graves are so num erous. Because children Inherit the taste for drink. Because there are a thousand other rea sons which we have not time to enumerate, all pointing to the folly of drinking intoxi cants, and to the wisdom ot being a total abstainer. An Astonishing Comparison. The world was recently thrilled with the news thnt Great Britain had appropriated almost 120,000,000 for her naval expenses for the coming year. The sum, when compared with our own expenditures, seems enormous, but, according to the figures of Dr. Dawsou Burns, recently pub lished In the London Times, the drink bill ot the United Kingdom Is more than 6.3 times that great appropriation, or 761, 103,615. The new American battle-shin, the Illinois, which when finished will be the most powerful vessel of our navy, will cost almost M ,000,003; but the British drink bill would build 200 such vessels. But why go across the seas? The money that we, the American people, spend for drink in a year's time would build an Il linois every working day in tho year. Sobriety a Test of Fitness. There Is no longer any Indulgence for the public man who gets drunk, nor Is It possible any more for a inau to maintain a first-class standing In private life If bn Is known to be given to intoxication. It is exceedingly difficult for the habitual drinker to prosper in any rrofosslon or to secure a situation in any branch ot busi ness. Most of the corporations make so briety oue of the tests of fitness for em ployment, and society shuts its door in the faces of thoso who cannot or do not control their appetites. This gain for temperance lias brought with it a general elevation of tho standards of morality and propriety. French Ulgcest Drinkers. A learned professor at Geneva, Switzer land, states that Frauco drinks more alco hol annually than any other nation In Europe.

Spread with anchovy paste, and prepare as many eggs, scrambled in butter, as you have slioes. Serve hot. Molasses Candy. Place a Baucepan with one quart mo lasses and one pound sugar over the fire, stir uutil the sugar is somewhat dissolved; then boil over slow fire to a crack; this may be known by pouring some of the boiling sugar in ice water; then take it out, and if it breaks like glass it has boiled enough; then add immediately four ounces butter, boil few minutes longer, or try by pouring a little iu ice water; if it breaks like glass it is ready for taffy; pour it into buttered pans. For butterscotch add some fine shaved or sliced coeoannt, cook a few minutes; and one teaspoon fill baking soda, stir aud cook two ruiu utes, then pour it in buttered tins; when cold out it in squares. Tomato Omelet. Place a pan with half a tablespoon- ful of butter over the fire. Add one cupful draiued canued tomatoes, sea son with one-quarter teaspoonful of salt, the same4of pepper and sugar. Cook ten minutes. Iu the meautime, separate thr.ee eggs, add to the yolks three tablespoonfuls cold water, a pinch of salt, and mis together. Beat the whites to a stiff froth. Add the yolk mixture to the whites, while beating constantly. Place a frying pan of medium size with one table spoonful of butter over tho fire. When hot pour iu the egg mixture, and bake light brown on the under side, shaking the pan now and then to loosen the omelet. When brown on the under side set the pan for a few moments in the oven or under a gas flame to cook the top. Care should be taken not to leave the omelet in too long, as that would toughen it. Remove from oven aud put two spoonfuls of the tomato over the omelet, fold it double and slip on a warm plate. Pour the re maining tomato around it and serve. Orange Layer Cake. Half a cup of butter and one cup powdered sugar; stir to a cream, then add the grated riud (yellow part) of half an orange, the whites of three eggs beaten to a stiff froth, half a cup of sweet milk and one and a hnlf cups of flour in which you have sifted a tea spoonful of baking powder. Bake in two large jelly-tins, spreading the bat ter evenly. When done, turn the cakes on the pastry board to cool while yon make the filling. Put the beaten yolks of the eggs in a small saucepan or in a double boiler, add a teaspoonful of butter, two teaspoonfula of lemon juice and the grated rind of the other half of the orange. Set the Baucepan in a pan of boiling water and stir the mixture till it thickens, then take from the fire, stir in a half cup of sugar, spread on one cake, put tho other on top and duBt with powdered sugar.

Household Hints. ' Small quantities and no waste is one good rule to remember. Have just enough not a piece too much. Marketing economically does not mean purchasing things at the cheapest rate. It really involves the higher talent of selecting wisely and well. A mucilage that proves satisfactory is made of equal parts of gum arabio and gum tragacanth dissolved in suf ficient water to make a thick paste. Fat will not burn if it has some thiug to do, so if it has to be left idle for a few minutes put a crust of bread or a slice of raw potato into the kettle.

A little pulverized chalk moistened with ammonia and applied with a brush will remove the marks caused by the dripping of a faucet in a marble basin. An old tooth brush is a good thiug to use for this purpose. In polishing silver that has been laid away and badly tarnished it is a good plan to dip the portion of a soft, oil cloth in sweet oil or soft lard, ther in whiting, and rnb the articles well, nntil the blaok has disappeared. Then finish with whiting. Eggs may be kept fresh longer with the small end downward than in any other position, because in this way the yoli is suspended in the albumen and enveloped by it; whereas, if placed for any time otherwise, the yolk will come in contact with the shell and decomposition would result. Never throw away old preserve jars which have lost their covers, or whose edges are broken so that the covers will not fit tightly. What are they good for, do you ask? Why, for hold ing pickles. All you need to do is to fill them, tie a cloth over the top to exclude insects, aud put away in the storeroom closet. Electrical Generation. The accidental generation of electric ity by friction was exemplified in Lou don recently wheu tho friction of a hairdresser's hand on a' customer's head produced a spark which set lire to the vapor of a hair wash containing kerosene. Lord Kelvin, in speaking of this well-authenticated case, say friction of any kind should be avoided in the presence of inflammable liquids or vapor. A Itemarkable Hook.

Authorities Differ on It and Centena rlana Are I'ncertaln Quantities. How may a man prolong his life indefinitely? This question is disonssed, but by no means settled, in an article by Laugdon Kain, M. D., in the Jsortu American Review. The writer points out that author ities disagree by over a century as to the utmost limit of the human life, and are widely divergent as to the means for prolonging it. Where oue instance is found of a centenarian who has lived abstem iously and kept regular habits an other springs up of an equally aged mau who has been a noted drunkard aud smoker all his life. Authorities on the subject have been puzzled to note that iu countries where prosperity, intelligence and general civilization are highest, cen tenarians are fewest. Dr. Klin explains this by saying that among such persons the death certificates are more rigidly kept, while among people of less education tho exact age is left in doubt and wild guesses aro made as to every old mau or woman's years. This would seem to discount mauy of the tales of persons who claim to be 150 or 180. This theory is borne out by the fact that uearly all alleged centenarians belong to the poorer, less educated classes. Hiram Lester, said to have been the oldest citizen of this country, died iu an almshouse in 1896 at the alleged ago of 128. Noah Eaby, an other pauper, celebrated what he said was his 12t?th birthday at Piscataway, N. J., recently. A German statisti cian claims to have fouud-an African named Bruno Coburn, now living at Bio de Janeiro, at the age of 150. Jo sioh Field, of Bed Bauk, N. J., died last year at tho fairly authenticated age of 104. He remained a bachelor uutil he was seventy-five, when he married and became the father of three children. Margaret Kasiocoua, a Pole, was a simitar case, having married her third husband wheu she was uinety-four, and bi aritig him three children. Ireland holds tho prize as a centenarian producing country. Of its 5,000,000, 578 are said to be cen tenarians. England, with a popula tion of 28,000,000, has but H, while Germany, with 50,000,000 inhabitants, boasts only seventy-eight centena rians. A Cheap Trill;.

To be safe, buy Alabastiue only In packages and properly labeled. Horse-Power. Watt, the greut improver of the steam engine, introduced into the vo cabulary of machinists the term horse power. When he first began the manufacture of steam eugiucs, he ex perienced much diffieelty in ascertain ing from his distant customers what sized engine they required, aud they were not less puzzled how to commu nicate to him the information. He was frequently guided, however, by their mentioning the number of horses which the eugine ordered was designed to replace. Actiug upon this hint, he ascertained by experiment that the very strongest of the London brewers' horses (animals of wonderful size and strength), could exert a force equiva lent to raising 33,000 pounds one foot in a minute. This force he called oue horse-power, and adopted it as the standard in regulating the size of steam engines. Now, not oue horse in a hun dred is able to exert that degree of strength. A steam engine of teu horse power can, iu reality, do the work of about twenty horses. A Judge Killed by a Turkey. The fashion by which J iidge Samuel Ashe of the First North Carolina Supreme Court came to his death must have been extremely mortifying to him. He was killed by a turkey gobbler. One day, after he had become very old and infirm, he was placed in a chair uuder the shade of a tree iu his yard. A red cap protected his aucient nod dle from the attacks of flies, and his comfort was so well provided for in every way that a sweet slumber stole upou hiui, and caused him to nod. A large turkey gobbler, which patrolled that precinct, mistaking this for a challenge, immediately gave battle. On a sudden the Judge's sweet slum bers were, broken by the flap of hostile wings, and ere ho could collect his scattered sensec a well-directed spur smote him iu the temple, and he fell down and gave up tho ghost. Law Notes. Wood peckers Kat Poles. Redheaded woodpeckers have de stroyed, during two years, a carload of the poles which support the wires of the Kansas City and Independence electrio line. The busy little birds bore into the poles aud scooop out a cavity, where they lay their eggs and raise their young. In this way the poles are weakened ao that they break under the weight of the wires. The wood of the poles is the soft white cedar, aud is easily peuetrated by the sharp bills of the woodpeckers.

From the most ancient times, however, it has been familiar to the Asiatio and Eu ropeau races. Tho Latins divided it into threo forms the osculum, the basium, aud the suavium; the first bciug the kiss of friendship and re spect, the second of ceremony, aud the third of love. The Semites always kuew the kiss, and Job speaks of it as part of the sacred rites, as it is to day iu the Roman Church. The Mon golian kiss, however, is not the same as that which prevails with ns. In it the lips do not touch the surface of the person kissed. The nose is brought into light contact with the cheek, forehead or hand; the breath is drawn slowly through the nostrils, and the act ends with a slight smack of the lips. The Chinese consider our mode of kissing full of coarse suggestiveness, 'and onr writers re gard their method with equal disdain. Darwin and other noturalists have at tempted to traco back the kiss to the act of the lower nnimals, who seize their prey with their teeth, eto. Science. Big rieces of String. The largest cablo of modern times is tho mauila hawser which was used to tow the drydock to Havana.

There are at least two others of a greater citcumference, but both older. One of these bad a circumference of twenty-three inches, and was nsed for the purpose of anchoring the ship Noith Carolina in the Navy Yard at Brooklyn, while the other was a twenty-four-inch hawser which was used as a sheet-anchor cable on tho lennessee when she was stationed in the Medi terranean in the sixties. Such an enormous rope was natur ally found to be unwieldy, a fact which was abnudantly demonstrated when the vessel encountered a storm in the Bay of Naples. When the Tennessee returned to her native home in Amor ica, the hawser was Bent to tho oakum mills and made into oakum. Boston Traveler. Itussla In the Business, Tod.
