The proposed Lutheran University
probably will be built in Chicago, or,
st least, very near that city. The
purpose of the church is to found
au institution ou the model of the
foremost foreigu universities and to
endow it with at least $2,000,000.
The fund will be raised according to
systematic plans already devised. Ac
cording to a recent discussion of the
project, Chicago was selected aa the
site of the institution on account of its
central location. The strongest
Lutheran cities iu the country are New
York and Thiladelphia, neither of
which was selected, for fear the
Lutheran spirit in the other would be
blighted with jealousy. The univer
sity is intended to unite all the
Lutherans of the land and, as the
Northwest is largely peopled by
foreigners who aro members of the
sect, Chicago was deemed au admir
able location for the institution. The
honor of originating the idea of a
Lutheran university belongs to the
Eev. O. A. Bierdeniann, of Utica.

of her complete recovery. Bead her
letter:
Dear Mrs. Piskham: I wish you to
publish what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, Sanative Wash
and Liver Pills
have done for
me.
I suffered
, for four years
with womb
trouble. My
' doctor said I
had falling of
the womb. I
also suffered
with nervous
prostration, faint,
all-gone feelings, palpita
tion of the heart, bearing-down sensa
tion and painful menstruation. I could
not stand but a few minutes at a time.
When I commenced takingyour med
icine I could not sit up half a day, but
before I had used half a bottle I was
up and helped about my work.
I have taken three bottles of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
used one package of Sanative Wash,
and am cured of all my troubles. I feel
like a new woman. I can do all kinds
of housework and feel stronger than I
ever did in my life. I now weigh 131 J
pounds. Before using your medicine I
weighed only 108 pounds.
Surely it is the grandest medicine for
weak woman that ever was, and my
advice to all who are suffering from
any female trouble is to try it at once
and be well. Your medicine has
proven a blessing to me, and I cannot
praise it enough. Mrs. Luct Goodwin.

Grass and Clover With Grain.
It is always, we believe, a mistake
to omit either grass or clover seeding,
or fcoth, when sowing small grain of
any kind. If a farmer calculates be
forehand upon seeding his land with
grass and clover, he will be apt to give
the surface sou better cultivation, aud
leave it reasonably smooth. This,
though done for the grass and clover
crop, is much better for the grain also.
Even iu a poor season some of the
grass seed is likely to grow, and if the
summer be a wet one there may be a
good catch. This failure to seed with
grain is often defended, on the ground
that the land is soon to be plowed
anyway, and it is not worth while to
sow seed where the field is to be
plowed again the same season or the
following spring. But something may
happen to prevent this. The old
meadow or pasture may be so injured
that it is necessary to plow them up
aud reseed. In such case, if no grass
or clover seed was sown the present
spring, there is a greater area of land
to be plowed than can be properly
manured, aud not enough land fit for
pasture or meadow. A new seeding
always cuts more the first and second
years than it will if kept later. Hence,
to reseed land as often as a grain crop
is sown is the best way to get the most
out of it, aud, we may add, the best
also to make the soil increase in
fertility. Boston Cultivator.
Trees Gnawed by Mice or Rabbits.
If the portion of the tree from which
the bark has been oaten is at onoe
covered with grafting wax, healing
will usually take pla:e and the tree
live. Of oourse, if the exposed wood
is allowed to become dry this surface
must be bridged over with scions, so
that the circulation may be renewed.
To make a suitable wax for this pur
pose, take five or six parts of resin and
two of beeswax. Melt this, and
while hot add one'part of tallow. Try
a coat of this on a green stick, expose
five minutes to the cold air or water.
If it is too hard and oracks easily, add
a little more tallow. It must not be
so soft that when warm spring weath
er comes, it will run off the wood. If
beeswax cannot be readily obtained,
use only resin aud tallow, in which
case a greater proportion of tallow is
required. This, however, is not as
good as when beeswax is a part of the
mixture.
To apply this wax, wind about one
end of a small stick a strip of muslin
two inches wide. Let part of this ex
tend beyond the stick and then tie
the whole thing firmly to it with
twine. This is used as a swab. Fill
;iu old tin pail three-fourths full of
usiies. Ou the top of the ashes place
it layer of live wood coals and on thess)
coals a dish of wax. Now you are
ready to go to work. The coals will
keep the wax warm.
With the swab put a good coat of
wax over all exposed tissue. Be care
ful that it is not hot enough to burn
the wood and tissues 01 the bark of
the small trees. If the denuded sur
face Is large, after waxing wind a
thick strip of old, tender muslin about
the tree in spiral form. Then use a
little wax to fasten the end. This is
nn additional guard against the crack
ing of the wax or of its running off
during warm weather. The impor
taut thing with this treatment is to
apply the wax at once and do not de
lay until the wood has in any way be
come dry, for then the sap cannot as
cend and death will finally result.

T50 Pounds of Duck.
Our young ducks were put in an or
chard, around the south side of which
were raspberry bushes, writes an In
diana farmer. The hens tried to
mother them, but no, they were "free
born" and as independent as young
Amerioa. Borne of the hens stayed on
with the ducks at night for six or
eight weeks, others left in despair in
two weeks.
They had no swimming water, but
had all the water they wanted to drink
all the time. Charcoal and pounded
dishes for giit, also a pile of sharp
sand, were in reach all the time.
They were fed from start to finish on
coarse corn meal. The first six weeks
it was mixed with milk, soda and salt
aud baked until well done. The
crust of this bread was soaked, the
inside generally fed as it was. After
the baking was stopped the meal was
stilL mixed with milk, soda and salt.
A handful of sharp sand was used in
eaoh quart of soft feed onco a day. If
iaipcssiV.o to furnish milk, bone aud
beef, meal or cut green bone would
more than take its place. Understand,
they had all the green stuff they
wanted and free range, but as they
were well fed they didn't wander over
more than an acre. The first month
they were fed four times a day all
they would eat, after that three times
a day. The very little ones were fed
five times or whenever they came up
bnngry.
In June we sold twenty-five that
weighed when delivered at Indianapo
lis eighty-nine pounds live weight, for
which we received ten cents per pound.
The oldest of these twenty was nine
weeks, the remaining nineteen seven
weeks. The price of ducks went down
with a rush and wo kept the others
until October, when we sold 137 at
six and a quarter cents a pound live
weight. They weighed CG4 pounds.
We kept twenty. After they wero
put off with the hens, but one died,
two were mashed and six drowned iu
a well. There were 4325 pounds of
feed bought, which cost $25.40. This
grain, of course, was used also to
feed the hens and to start young
chickens.
Farm and Garden Notes.
Recovered marshes aud swamp
lands and land containing large quan
tities of sand always need liberal ap
plications of pota-ih.
When a horse reaches the top of a
till, he always instinctively slows up
to "get his wind." Fools start him
up without giving him a chance.
All the large aud medium breeds of
fowls should bo batched not later than
April 15th. By May 15th the smaller
breeds should be out, and then the
long race to maturity.
The Wisconsin station found that in
subsoiled ground, there was more
water in the second, third and fourth
foot than iu soil not treated, but that
the surface foot was drier.
On a frosty day a horse refuses to
take his bit. Why? Because he
does not enjoy having his tongue
blistered. Touch your own tongue to
a pieoe of cold iron and seo how you
like it. Warm the bit.
Occasionally late hatched chicks
will do as well as early hatched ones,
but not often. The early birds are
the thrifty fellows as a rule. March
hatched chicks, and early April as
well, seldom, if ever, have tho gapes.
There is too much "breeding for
points" among fanciers, yet a show
bird is usually a good breeder. We
have a few gentlemen fauciers who
keep fowls to look 'at and rIiow. Such
birds are good for nothing except to
the owner.
We have raised thousands of chicks
(in brooders) during the winter
months until late in April, says an ex
pert, and have never bad a siugle
case of gapes, while later in the sea
son the chicks raised with hens have
frequently suffered. The later brood
er ohicks were allowed to run at large,
too.
It is roor economv to linv thn
cheapest eggs on the market. There
are are exceptions, yet as a rule the
higher-priced eggs (reasonably
priced) are the cheapest in the end.
It costs a great deal for fanciers to
keen ud their flocks to a hio-h Wr
o o
of perfection, and they must charge
more man tue "come by chance"
man.
The secret of early sitters is early
layers. Those hens that laid all
through the winter aro the ones that
want to sit iu February and March.
The reason is plain. It takes warm,
especially warm and moist, weather
to hatch the gapeworm egg. There
fore the chicks cannot pick them up
because the gapeworm egg non est in
ventus. The vast majority of poultrymen
waut good layers or good market
fowls, aud want them well bred;
further than that they care nothing.
To-day we have practical fanciers on
every hand men who breed for re
sults, or who put results before feath
ers. Therefore their flocks must be
strong and vigorous, and among these
strong, vigorous birds will be found
many prize-winners, or birds fit for
such honors.
WISE WORDS.
One cannot always be a hero, but
one can always be a man.
If a man be endued with a generous
mind, this is the best kind of nobility.
You will never find time for any
thing. If you want time you must
make it.
Don't be witty. A man who says
a good thing is always oxpected to
keep on doing it.
Men often have an idea they are be
ing good because they are not any
worse than usual.
Love is all right, but it makes a
man look silly to get a lace paper en
velope in his mail.
If a man doesn't laugh when he
sees a girl try to sharpen a pencil he
is in love with her.
That charity is bad which takes
from independence its proper pride or
from begging its shame.
Give a wounded heart seclusion;
consolation nor reason ever effected
anything in such a case.
A girl is never really in love with a
man until she thinks of him when she
says her prayers at night.
The beatitudes are the rules for
everyday living, and for the humblest
as well as the highest occupations.
The unexpected never happens;,
there are always peoplo around who
knew things would turn out that way.
Surprises are in store for young
married couples who think that they

who considers pleasure the highest
good.

Marriage In Pennsylvania.
We had a comfortable wedding at
the home of one of our oldest families
last Thursday. George Alley married
Katie.the daughter of Colonel "Andy"
Frew. The wedding was held early
in the morning, as the happy couple
wished to take a wedding tour over the
N. and 8. V. Railroad to Newport.
The marriage was performed at 6.30 a.
m. by Squire Brown. After a sumptu
ous breakfast of sausage, buckwheat
cakes and bauauas, the bridal couple
departed ou the train the same day.
The bridegroom looked happy and the
bride handsome. She is so handsome
that it is said she can mash potatoes
by juBt looking at them. The next
day after the wedding George was in
the store, and, after sitting behind the
stove for about two hours, evidently
in deep thought, he rose, stretched
himself, and remarked: "Travlin's
tiresome." Perry County (Penn.)

from the Evening JCrtei, Drtroit, Mich.
The women of to-day are not a strong as

hnnlen in silence that grows heavier day
bv dav; that Is sapping their vitality and
ioudlng their happiness.
Mrs. Alexander 1). Clark, of 417 Mloblgan

yet she was cured.
"For five years I
suffered with ovarian
trouble," is Mrs. C
Clark's own version
of the story. "I was
not free one single
day from headache
and Intense twitch
ing pains In my neck
and shoulders. For
months at a time I
would be confined to
my bed. At times
black spots would
appear before my

come blind. My nerves were in such a state
that a stop on tho lloor unsettled me.
"F.miuent doctors, skillful nurse, the
best food and medicine all failed. Then I
consented to an operation. That, too,
failed, and they said another was necessary.
After the second I was worse than ever and
the world was darker than before.
"It was then I heard ot Dr. Williams'
rink Fills for Pale People. I hoard that
they had cured oases like mine and I tried
them.
"They cured met They brought sun
shine to my life and filled mv cup with hap
piness. The heAda'.'ho is gone; the twitch
ing is gone; the nervousuess la gone; the
trembling has ceased, and I have gained
twenty-six pounds. Health nnd strength
is mine and I am thankful to Dr. Williams'
Pink rills for l'alo People for the blessing."
These pills are a boon to womankind.
Acting directly on thn blood and nerves,
they restore the requisite vitality to all
parts of the body; creating functional rega
larlty and perfect harmony throughout
tbe nervous system, Tho pallor ot tho
cheeks Is changed to the delicate blush ot
health; tbe eyes brighten; the muscles
grow elastic, ambition is created and good

Storage Battery ltoait In Kurope.
There are eight storage battery roads
in Europe, fonr of which were installed
during the past year. Tho largest
system of this type comprises three
roads in Paris, operating nineteen
storage battery cars, some of which
have been doing duty since 1892, and
the addition of a third road last May
seems to indicate that for the condi
tions there existing the storage bat
tery has proved sotisfactory. The
other fonr roads are located, one at
Birmingham, England; one at Hague
Bcheveningen, Holland, and two in
Austria-Hungary.

The first gymnasium (high school)

ing it, that the gymnasium in that
conntry has an educational standing
as high as the average American
"university" it means much.
