Mickigan Fnrmrr. Pavi.xo Kakhyjibd. For paving with stone, large, flat atones are object ionable, because stock are liable to flip on them and be Injured. Flat Atones, not more titan eighteen or twenty inches arjuare, however, can lie em ployed for this purpose, but even then it I better to alternate them with row of cobble-stone. Oil a beavr (oil it is desirable to draw in a coating of tine ! gravel, six or eight Inches thick, in which to set the stones, bringing them all to a level !y excavating to let the large one down so that the npper sur face or all may he at an equal height. As they are set, they should have tine gravel scattered over them to fill up the space between the stones,anil a paver's pounder should lie used to drive them all down firmly, to a to leave an even surface, sloping regular in accordance with the designated grade toward the centre of the yard. A trowel is useful in laying cobble stone pavement, iu order to handily fit the stones into the soil, that they may all be level on tlie top, and a stretched line as a guide i a great help for this purpose.

A we have a thousand time said be fore, and h-e-hotise may be a simple af fair. Get the four walls up of slabs, logs or boards, a ith a good thick lining of saw dust, and a roof to shed rain, covering the top layer of ice with saw dust the same as protects the sides. Other material, such as tan-bark, cho ped straw or chaff, will doquite well. About ten or twelve inches of saw-dust will answer tlie purpose. It is not ne cessary to have double walls, though they are convenient for filling. Drain age is necessary. Have the floor loosely laid upon sleeers so as to raise it a few inches from the ground. And be sure to build the bouse on a well drained site a gravelly soil being best. Pack the ice block in well and have ventila tion or a free circulation of air over the top of the mass. Ths Orchariw ix Wixtek. In the orchard there will be something to do as tbe snow storms follow each other. The mice have been prolific breeders this season, we are told. They will get hungry after awhile, and unless the snow U compactly stamped down about all kinds of young trees and shrubs, there will be great danger of loss by these vermin. Then the rabbits must be trapped, shot, or in some way pre vented from accomplishing the same mischief. As they make good fond when fried, boiled or stewed, it will pay to look alter their runs and capture them. Hang up and well frozen their carcasses will keep for many days or weeks. For a change from bacon, ham chickens and other meats, they are by a great many people highly esteemed. Some are prejudiced against them, likening them to cats and woodchucks, but it is observable that the consump tion of tbe rabbit is vastly on the in crease in the cities, and probably in the country also.

The fact that opiates, in any form, leave trace of their influence the next morning, induced him, he says, to prescribe for himself as he has aL-o frequently prescribed for others onions; simple common raw onions. The well known taste of onions is due to a peculiar essential oil contained in them, anal this oil has highly soporific powers, which, in his own ease, Mr. Rockland avers, never fails; if much pressed with work, and feeling an ina bility to sleep, his practice is to eat two or three small onions, tbe effect of which to magical in producing the de sired repose. Such a remedy has a great advantage over the stupefying drus commonly resorted to for this purpose, and is even preferable to the Liquor opii trUat and chlorodyneof medical practice. Aboct Bon.no Ham. There is an objection to the common way of boiling egg which people do not understand. It is this: The white under three min utes rapid cooking becomes tough and indigestible while the yolk to left soft. When properly rooked egg are done evenly through like any other food. This result may be attained by putting the egg into a dish with a cover as a tin pail and then pouring upon them boiling water, two quarts or more to a dozen eggs, and cover and set them away from the stove for fifteen mluutes. Tne heat of the water cooks the eggs slowly and evenly and sufficiently and to a jelly-like consistency, leaving the center or volk harder than the white. ami the egg tastes as much richer and ulcer as a fresh egg U nicer thaa a stale egg, and no person will want to eat them boiled after having tried this method once. Simpt.k Ct RJt fob Boils. Dr. Simon, a physician of Lorraine, gives a new cure for boils namely, by treating them with camphorated alcohol. A soon as the culmination point of a boil makes its appearance be put a little of the liquid in a saucer, and, dipping the ends of his little fingers in it, rubs the inflamed surface, especially the central part, re peating the operation eight or ten times for about half a minute, fie then allows the surface to drr, placing over it a slight coating of camphorated olive oil. He say that four such applications will, in almost all cases, cause boil to 1rv up and disappear, the operation to lie per formed morning, noon and evening. The announcement of so simple a cure for such a painful malady will bear reiwtition. Thb change of dav and night of the seasons, of dowers and fruits, ami what ever else meets us from epoch to epoch, so that we can and should enjor it; these are the profier springs of earthly life.

These deservedly celebrated and pop ular medicines have e netted a revolu tion in tbe healing art, and proved tbe fallacy of several maxims w hlch have for many years obstructed the progress of medical science. The false supposi tion that "Consumption is incurable deterred physicians from attempting to nnd remedies tor tnat disease, aud pa tients afflicted with it reconciled them selves to death without making an ef fort to escape from a doom which they supposed to 00 unavoidable, it is now proved, however, that Coafaiaj'uoa coa be cared, and that It so been cured Iu a very great number of cases (some of them apparently desperate ones) by Schenck's Pulmouic Syrup alone; and in other cases by the same medicine in connection with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, one or both, according to the requirements of the case. Dr. Schenck himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted good health, for more than forty years was supposed, at one time to be at the very gate of death, his physicians having pronounced his case hopelesa, and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured by the aforesaid medicines, and, since his recovery, many thousands similarly affected have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with the same remarkable success. Full directions accompany each, mak ing it not absolutely necessary to per sonally see Dr. Schenck uuless patients wish their lungs examined, and for this purpose he is professionally at hi prin cipal office, Corner Sixth and Arch St., Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letters for advice must b addressed. Schenck's medicines are sold br all druggists. SHOW CAGES! SHOWCASES! ounaiaas, aaBjkj lAMLruYiiimM fix ovon ajro omoa ruaxmraa aa maa TM ara aa ha mHi aWaa, atmaa nilIB IBM oaa.
