Health is a magnet which irresistibly
draws the man to the woman in life's
mating time. Health does more than
tint the skin with beauty ; it puts music
into the voice and buoyancy into the
step, as well a 9 happiness into the heart.
A great many women covet beauty and
are constantly seeking aids to beautify
them. Let a woman first seek perfect
health and all other charms shall be
added to her.
There can be no general health for
women while there is disease of the
delicate womanly organism. The first
step to perfect health is to cure womanly
diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription. It establishes regu
larity, dries weakening drains, heals
inflammation and ulceration anil cure 9
female weakness.
«I used four bottles of your 'Favorite Pre
scription ' and one of 1 Golden Medical Discov
ery,' » writes Mrs. Elmer D. Shearer, of Mount
hope, Lancaster Co., ra„ "and can say that I am
cured of that dreaded disease, uterine trouble.
Am in better health than ever before. Every
one who knows me is surprised to see me look
SO well. In June I was so poor in health that
at times I could not walk. To-day lam cured.
I tell everybody that Dr. Pierce's medicines
cored me."

CnrlDK Choice Bacon and l'ork For
lhiiltim Pieces.
Bacon is the most popular and tho
-t.ist easily digested of any pork moat.
When new corn is ready to feed, select
early spring pips tliat are strictly
healthy, hut. are thin in flesh. Feed
them up rapidly, thus causing the flesh
to be tender. Pigs weighing about 150
pounds make the best bacon. Cut the
sides into strips three or four inches
wide and put them for six weeks into
u brine made thus: For 100 pounds of
meat use six pounds of salt, two
pounds of brown sugar and four ounces
of saltpeter, with water enough to cov
er the meat when closely packed in a
clean cask. Boil, skim and cool. Sprin
kle a thin layer of salt in the bottom
of the barrel, so the meat will not
touch the wood. Put the skin side
doMii and be sure the whole contents
are covered with brine.
At the end of six weeks take up the
meat and smoke it, using hardwood
chips of hickory or apple. Smoke till
brown or tan color. Sew the
pieces up in muslin bags and white
wash these. Store in a dry, cool place
or pack away in dry hickory ashes.
Fork for boiling is cured in the same
way, but as it is left in the brine the
year round it is well to examine, and,
if necessary, make fresh pickle. The
pork barrel should be well scrubbed
and aired before using and may be
sweetened by charring lightly the in
ner surface by burning with lighted
chips.—Farm Journal.
A POULTRY HOUSE.
Complete anil Convenient—A Handy
Xest Box Arrangement.
We have been asked for a plan for
a convenient poultry house. The writ
er has built and used two according to
the plan illustrated in the accompany
ing drawing and considered it as com
plete and convenient as can be de
signed. The building is 9 by 18 feet,
eight feet high in front and six feet at
back. As will be seen, the hither end
is open. This was done to show the
interior arrangement. Attached at this
open end is an extension of four feet
separated from the part shown by a
latticed partition, as a storage room
for feed, opening into the main part of
the house. In the cut DB is the
dropping board, twenty-eight inches
wide, surmounted at a height of five
INTERIOR OF POULTRY HOUSE.
inches by a three inch perch with pegs
five inches high and eight inches apart
to prevent crowding. Back of the drop
ping board is a partition of wire net
ting separating the house, into two
compartments, B for roosting and lay
ing, 5 by 14 feet, and A for sitting
hens, 4by 14. The nest boxes marked
N completely fill the space under the
dropping board.
When a hen is done laying and wants
to sit, give her the eggs and push the
box back until it opens into the sitting
compartment. She is then confined
and safe from intrusion by other fowls.
The cut shows one nest box thus
pushed back. This house should front
south and the front side should be
closed with four inch strips three inches
apart and have a door opening thence
into the feedroom. The north side
and the ends are boarded up and the
joints covered with four Inch strips.

Export Cattle.
The bulk of cattle exported belong to
the good and choice grades of steers
and weigh from 1,200 to 1,500 pounds.
For the Christmas market there is an
active demand for a limited number of
prime steers of strong weights, say
about 1,500 pounds. At other seasons
the lighter weights, from 1,200 to 1,400
pounds, are preferred. While 1,200
pound steers are a trifle light in weight
to meet the demand of exporters, they
are often taken in preference to steers
weighing 1,500 pounds or more, provid
ed, of course, their quality and condi
tion are satisfactory. If a weight were
to be fixed upon as being the most de
sirable for export at the present time,
it would be 1,350 pounds. Exporters
neither buy the best nor yet the cheap
est grade of fat cattle.

When a man begins to count his
blessings, he can generally find plenty
to be thankful for, although sometimes
he may include things which might
no', be regarded by other people as al
together joyous.
"I'm thinking about the wonderful
progress the world has made and how
much we've t;ot to be thankful for."
said Mrs. Matthews, rocking In her old
stuffed chair, with a pair of knitting
needles in her hands and a placid smile
on her face.
"It is wonderful," admitted her niece.
"Setms as if everything turned to

If it hadn't been for that, we never
should have known the blessings of
vaccination, aiul if there hadn't been

thought to invent magnifying glasses

things to be thankful for."
BOSTON HARBOR FROZE.
But That Didn't Keep tlic Britannia

1 Boston harbor froze over in January
of 1844, and the advertised sailing of

that the steamer might sail praetir.i
on time. The contract for cutting ii;
necessary channels was given to mer
chants engaged, like Frederick Tudor.
In the export of ice, not from the
harbor. Their task was to cut. within
the space of three days, a channel
about ten miles long. For tools they
had the best machinery used in cutting
fresh water ice, and horsepower was
employed. The ice was from six to
twelve inches in thickness. As tl:e Ad
vertiser of Feb. 12. I*l4, described the
scene: "A great many persons have
been attracted to our wharfs to wit
ness the operations and tlie curious
spectacle of the whole r'.ior frozen
over, and the ice lias been covered
by skaters, shxls and even sleighs.
Tents and booths were erected npon the
ice, and some parts of the 11:1 ri>or bore
the appearance of a Russian holiday
scene." On Feb. 3 the work was done,
and the Britannia, steaming slowly
through the lan'.* of open water, lined
on either side by thousands of cheering
spectators, n:.- her way to the sea.

The tJarild}- Facts.
A story told of I.ord llolt, who was
lord chief justice of England in the
eighteenth century, shows what a dead
ly enemy to wild superstition a sense
of fact may be. A man presented him
self to I.ord Holt and said:
"A spirit came to me from the other
world and told me tliat in your next
case you must enter a plea of nol.
pros."—that is, refusal to prosecute.
Lord Holt looked at the man a mo
ment and then smiled.
"Do you believe that such a message
is wise for a human being to obey?"
"It Is absolute."
"And do you believe that the messen
ger had a full knowledge of the law of
England?"
"Yes, and of all law. By following
this heaven given advice you will be
doing justice."
"Well, you tell your messenger if he
conies again that he should have sent
his message to the attorney general.
The lord chief justice of England never
prosecutes, atid if the spirit knew any
thing about the English law he would
know a simple thing like that." —

IIclliliii; Out n Poet.
Shortly after the publication of Ten
nyson's famous poem, "A Vision of
Sin," the laureate was somewhat star
tled to receive from Mr. Babbage, the
renowned arithmetician, a letter which
ran as follows:
Dear Sir—l find in a recently published
poem from your pen. entitled "A Vision
of Sin," the following unwarrantable
statement:
"Every moment dies a man,
Every moment one is born."
I need hardly point out to you that this
calculation, if correct, would tend to keep
the sum total of the world's population in
a state"""bf perpetual equipoise, whereas it
is a well known fact that the said sum
total is constantly on the increase. I
would therefore take the liberty of sug
gesting that in the next edition of your
excellent poem the erroneous calculation
to which I refer should be corrected as
follows:
Every moment dies a man
And one and a sixteenth is born.
I may add that the exact figures are 1.1G7.
but something must of course be conceded
to the laws of meter. I have the honor to
be, sir, yours, sincerely, C. BABBAGE.
Xcts Lure Athletes.
Races through deep snow are an at
tractive feature of winter sports in
Germany, and athletes who take part
In them do not always fare very suc
cessfully.
The reason is because over the ground
which the runners must cross are laid
nets with strong meshes, and as these
are covered by the snow and hence are
invisible the men's feet almost always
catch in them, the result being that a
race instead of being won by the swift
est runner is generally won by him
who is lucky enough to escape the nets
or who succeeds in freeing himself the
most quickly from their meshes.
Races of this kind always attract
large crowds, and there is much amuse
ment when tho nets begin to get in
their deadly work.
