A Woman Diver.
From rnlra Beach, Fit., comes the
•tory of » woman thirty-eight year* of
•go, n native of Jamaica, who has for
twenty vonrs been engaged as a sub
marine diver. Her hnsband, Pedro
Ooinez, caine from a Spanish family
of sponge (livers. While at Fanohal,
Madeira, iu the Canaries, he became
acquainted with an English direr, who
gave him some ideas as to submarine
exploration under scientific auspices.
He went to Central Amerioa, and met
his love and his business partner of to
day at Colon, on the isthmus. She
fell into his line of life easily, and for
ten yeais has done the better part of
the hazardous work whioh he, as a
manager, contracts for. She carries
less armor than he does, and has in
vented a helmet with a system of air
pipes that she and her husband alone
hold the secret of. It is claimed that
with this helmet, securing her breath
ing connection with the upper world,
she can wander almost at will thiough
a sunken wreck. In a recent inter
view with the editor of a Jacksonville
newspaper she says that in the course
of 1000 descents to the ocean's bed
within the ten yews that she has been
in the business she has never met a sea
monster or any other fish that wonld
not fly from the merest wave of her
arm.—New Orleans Picayune.
Henry Vl.'s Shoes.
When the tomb of Henry VI., oi
Sicily, who died in 1187, was opened
at Palermo, forty years ago, it was
found that on the feet of the dead
monarch were shoes whose uppers
were of cloth, ombroidered with gold
and pearls, while the soles were of
cork. —St. Louis Republic.

RATIONS FOIS IDIiB HOUSES.
Horses that are not worked in the
winter may be kept in excellent con
dition ou good clover hay alone. This
hay h s more proteine in it than wheat,
and more fat, and these two elements
of the food lire most needed by animals
that are not in active use. If timothy
hay is used, two quarts daily—given
nt noon—of coarsely chopped corn,
with bran, or of oats tinground, would
be ample. Exercise is indispensible,
hewever, to health, and this will be
afforded by the use of a yard for a few
hours at midday.—New York Times.
SMALL POTATOES.
Save the small potatoes for the bens.
After they nre cooked they will require
no preparation, as ihe hen can easily
pick them to pieces. In the Winter
season they will servo greatly to assist
in keeping the hens in good condition,
and as such potatoes nre unsalable,
they can be made just as valuable as
the large ones if converted into eggs
and sent to market. Potatoes will be
cheap this winter, and tho best upe the
smaller ones can be put to is in the
kettle, to be fed where they cau take
the place of something more expensive.
—Maine Farmer.
PCLTING Tcnsips rort cATTiirt.
Unless there are too many nnimals
to be fed, the easiest way to feed any
kind of roots safely is to slice them
with a sharply ground sp&do in a
shallow box. A bushel of the roots
may thus be out in thin slices or small
fragments in a minute, aud, as a peck
makes a good feed, it is a quick way
of preparing the roots for feeding. It
is not safe to give roots whole, as the
pieces are apt to be too large to
swallow. A machine for pulping
roots so that they may be fed with cut
hay or straw may bo purchased for $lO
or sl2, or one may bo made by tilling
the surface of a roller a foot in di
ameter with small chisel shaped pieces
of iron, ground sharp, and litting this
in a box having sloping Bides, to the
bottom, so that the roots are cut into
small fragments. Tho box should be
made of such a size that the roots will
lodge at the side, and not slip to tho
bottom until they nro grated into
pulp. A machine of this kind need
not cost more than two dollars, and
will do all the work of a more costly
one.--American Farmer.
riirNE GRAPKVISKS TO GET GOOD FRI'IT,
Much of the pruning required by
grapevines cau be done in the fall and
during mild dnys in winter. It ia not
bent, however, to finish the work then.
Dead wood aud superlluotis old wood
can be cut away, and the weaker canes
not suited foi bearing next season may
be shortened to two or tbree buds.
One of these buds, if properly man
aged, will most likely mako a good
cane of bearing size tho next season,
to produce fruit the year after.
The strong canes selected to pro
duce fruit mny as well be left until
March. It will be light work to short
en them to half their length or less,
when the other pruning is out of the
way.
)n pruning theso strong canes be
fore winter is over, some of the buds
most desired for fruit might receive
injury from extreme cold; they nro
much less likely to be hurt if left un
pruned until the severe weather is
mostly over.
The necessity of pruning the vines
exists by reason of tho great produc
tiveness of most of tho best varieties.
If left unpruned, twice as much fruit
will set as the vine can bring to per
fection, and the fruit will not only bo
inferior, but the vine will be injured
—permanently in the case of some
kinds.
It will be understood that tho term
"cane" refers to wood of the previous
Reason's growth; the wood which, if
strong enough, will bear fruit the suc
ceeding yenr.
Pruning is not to be done when the
ground is frozen, and not to be done
when the vines bleed.—National
Stockman.
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT BULBS.
Always procure bulbs as soon as
possible in the fall, advises Ebon E.
Rexford. This because it is important
that they should be planted so early
that a complete root growth may be
made before the coming of the winter.
Ihe success of next spring depends
lurgely ou the thoroughness with
which the work is done. tiood roots
mean flue flowers.
Have your beds ready for the bulbs,
so that yon canplaut them immediate
ly after receiving them. A bulb dries
out rapidly when exposed to the air,
and it is important that it should go
into the ground fresh and plump.
Have the bulb bed well drained. If
it is not naturally so, provide artificial
drainage.
Have the toil very fine and mellc w.
You cannot work it over too much. If
rather heavy with clay, add sand or
loam to lighten it.
Moke it rich with old decomposed
manure from tho cow yard. Nothing
else in the chape of a fertilizer suits a
bulb so well.
On no account use fresh manure.
In buying bulbs always get the best.
The best is the cheapest in the end.
Do not confine your purchase to
spring-flowering sorts. Be sure to
plant some summer and fall blooming
lilies.
Be sure to plant somo bulbs, if you
have none at present. If those who
have never growu bulbs could fully
understand the amount of pleasure to
be derived from them I am qnite sure
ten would bo planted where one is
planted now. By making a judicious
selection it 13 an easy matter to have
flowers from the melting of spring
snow through April and May to the
coming of the early Bummer flowers.
Prairie Farmer.
STABLE COMFORT IN WINTER.
Warm stables and proper feed are
essential in keeping cattle in a thri\-
ing condition during winter, but few
lire up to tbsir kuowlidge ol these
facta because of carelessness aud neg
lect, says Allen Morse. To do this in
the easiest and cheapest way, if the
stock are not provided with warm,
comfortable stables, provide them at
once. It ean be done as cheaply now
as at any season of the year. Nail
boards over oracks and ceil tho inside
with matched boards. I stuffed mine
between tho walls and ceiling with
swamp hay with good results, An in*
side and outside door should be pro
tided, and the former should be shut
tight. The cost of suoh an outlay on
a stable fifty feet long will be about
sls; it will save that value in fodder
The first winter. If water freezes in
the stable provide a heater at a cost of
$5 to |10! you will willingly give the
wood and labor to see the cows drink.
If both a warm barn and warm water
cannot be provided, warm the stables,
even though the stock has to drink ice
water. It is far more comfortable,
too, milking without an overcoat and
grasping icicles.
Th« dairyman With a silo need not
be told what to feed his stook. Those
without one should not compel the
stock to eat straw, as it is poor econ
omy. Good clover hay, or at lea3t
that which is part clover, and a small
ration of grain will keep stock in good
Condition. Heavy grain feeding will
not pay in butter making notwith
standing good authorities say it will,
but the stock will be in better condi
tion, the manure richer, and it will be
a pleasure to see stock sleek and fat.
Keep the animals well bedded. This
will pay in the ndded comfort both to
yourself and stock, aud also in the
Value of the manure, and that is by
far the best use a farmer can make of
his straw. If owning more than can
be used in such a way, sell it and put
the value of it in meal. .Tt is an un*
disputed fact that it pays in dollars
and cents to make stock comfortable
and contented.—American Agricultur*

TALKS ABOUT PLANTS.
Tlie time to prepare ft wild garden
in a shady nook of tbo yard is in tho
fall. Wild flowers carefully trans
planted now will start in tho spring,
and the collection can bo added to
from year to year.
One of the peculiarities of the floral
world is the evening primrose, which
opens about 6 o'clock, p. in., with an
explosion, not very loud nor formida
ble, but still qnite perceptible to any
one who is watching the bud. It re
mains open all night.
Objectionable trees are killed intho
best way by strippiug tho bark from
them for a few feet from the ground
just when the foilage is fully expanded
in the spring. Leave the tree stand,
as it will then continue to draw on
the storehouse of the roots for sup
plies, without adding anything to it.
When fall comes the roots are ex
hausted, and if the treo be cut down
then no sprouts are likely to succeed
it.
Wild hollies please 60 much by their
bright berries in winter that many are
tempted to plant them on this account.
But it must not bo forgotten that these
shrubs are not all berry bearing.
Some have male flowers only, and
these have no berries. The only safe
plan is to see berries on a bush before
planting it. Hollies need close prnn
ing to make them live when trans
planted.
M. Zacharewiez, professor of agri
culture at Vaucluse, has found by ex
periment with different colored glasses
that fruit is the finest and earliest
when grown under clear glass. Orange
glass produces an increase of vegeta
tion, but at the cost of the amount of
fruit, of the size and of its forward
ness. Violet glass causes the number
of fruit to increase, at the expense of
the quality. Red, blue and green are
hurtful to all kinds of vegetation.

F. Bush, of Independence, Mo., has
reprinted from tho State horticultural
report of Missouri his list of the trees,
shrubs and vines of that State. Two
hundred and ninety-four species are

bly be slightly reduced. Betula popu

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
RENOVATING rCATBIRD.
There are two methods of «nliv«n
ing old feathers, both of whioh give
satisfactory results. An old feather
bed was renovated by the following
method and was as light and fluffy as
one made from new feathers. For
pillows, sew up a sheet crosswise in
bag form, leaving an open space at
one end the width of the pillow. Rip
an end seam of the pillow and sew the
two together. Change the feathers
from the pillow into the bag, shaking
well to secure all the down, then rip
apart and sew up the bag. Wash in
two strong, soapy waters and rinse
twice in dear water, draining the bag
well each time. Put the bag on the
grass in the sunshine, shake often and
beat lightly as the feathers dry, whioh
may take several days. When per
fectly dry they will be so nice and
light one will feel liko giving them
new ticks.
Another way is to make a strong,
soapy water, empty the feathers from
the tiok into it and wash them well
and wring with the maohine; repeat,
then rinßC twice and wring as dry as
possible. Spread them on a perfectly
olean floor iu an unocoupied room,
stir, turn and whip them till dry. The
advantage of this way over the other
is that it can be done in winter as well
as in summer, but there must bo a fire
in the room if done in freezing weath
er.—New England Homestead.
HOT BREAKFAST BREADS.
If there is one artiole in which
colored cooks exoel it is the hot bread
—those toothsome flour dainties that
are so appetizing, those brown and
crusty pop-overs and steaming Sally
Lunu3. At sis o'clock, the Virginia
supper hour, they are, indeed, the
piece de resistance of the early even

one tablespoonful of sugar, a little
over a pint of milk, and salt; then
add threo teaspooufuls of yeast
powder. Beat well and bake in small

The Urcat Sluiplon Tunuel.
Work will soon be commenoed on
the great Simplon tunnel on the Jura-
Simplon Railway. Two tunnels are
to be constructed some flfty-seyen feet

feet, or about twelve miles. At every
670 feet the two tunnels will be con

will be completed first, while the
other will bo used for ventilation. It

Scotland'* Bliplir Industry.
The drop in the production of pe
troleum in this country hM had the ef
fect of stimulating an almoat extinct
industry in Scotland, the distillation
of *il from abate. Fifty years ago it
was of great importance and was even
worked under royalties in the United
States, where there were between fifty
and sixty ooal and shale distilleries.
While the producers were at the height
of their prosperity, the natural oil
fields were opened and the old busi
ness went to pieoes, so that only two
Scotch companies were left in the
field. Like most manufacturing en*
terpriscs in Scotland, it was the waste
products which iurnished the profits
of the industry. The mineral distilled
is a bituminous shale or hard clay,
and the product of the distillition, of
which 57,000,000 gallons were made
last year, bears little resemblance to
coal oil. The waste'products whioh
bare contributed to the continued ex
istence of the industry are paraffins
wax and sulphate of ammonia. The
value of the former has beeu affected
seriously by the output of the distiller
ies in this country, but the ammonia
is produced only from shale, and the
fluctuations in its price have deoided
▼ery largely the profits of the business.
The crude shale oil has to be distilled
like petroleum and the lamp oil refined
from it has a higher flash point and
density than that made from pe
troleum. As the price of oil has fallen,
the shale distilleries have improved
the retorts and stills to an extent
whioh has resulted in the reduction of
the cost of the finished oil to a little
over four cents a gallon, about one
sixth of the cost thirty years ago. It
is impoosible not to admire the dog
ged determination and enterprise!
which, year after year, ha 3 caused tliej
accounts of the Scotch companies still
working to show a saving in working 1
expenses that has practically neutral*
ized the loss from falling prioes.—'

From the Republican, Cooprrtlotm, iV.
The people of the present nre traveling a
pace that would surprise the good old wives
and knlckerbockered grandfathers of a hun
dred years ago. Things aro not done by de
grees or stages in these days, but with a rush
ami hurry and says "no" to every setback.
In fact, this is the great leading trait of the
American people, and It never falls to at
tract the attention of other nations.
This constant hurry and ever present busi
ness pressure has not been without its effect
upon the nerves of tho race, and every year
witnesses the Increase of nervous disease.
Medical science, however, has been keeping
abreast with the times, and from tho very de
mands made upon it there have sprung new
departures and discoveries.
A reporter recently met Mr. Philip (1. Welt
ing, who is President of the Bank or Worces
ter, and of the Toledo City Bank, of Tolelo,
la., in the handsome little town of Worcester
among the hills of Otsego County, N. Y., and
conversation drifted to tho present topte. Mr.
Weiting had been a sufferer from locomotor
ataxia for twenty-five years, something
which none but those who have themselves
been afflicted by tho disease can appreciate.
Knowing that he had traveled far and wide
in search of some beneficial treatment for his
affliction, tho reporter asked the President
to give some facts in hi ) own case. He re
sponded willingly. Yes. "I suffered twenty
live years from locomotor ataxia," Mr. Weit
ing said, "and during all that time I was
seeking some relief. Well, I found it in Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. Of course I have it yet,
to some extent, but I'm feeling better aud my
legs are stronger than over before. I never
did have much faith in eithtr doctors or
medicines, and my long siege of suffering
helped along this distrust in them. Why, I
could scarcely walk auy distance at all, an I
could not stand long without my knees yield
ing beneath my own weight. A person can
not conceive of tho suffering such a state
brings upon the sufferer.
"I would goto Florida ev6ry year, and
visited almost every health resort in the
country. I went to the Sanitarium nt lowa
Falls, lowa, and also the very best In Michi
gan, but they dfdn't do me any good. I took
the full course ot their baths and massage
and rubbing, without receiving the least
benefit. I thought I would have to give up
all hope of ever curing myself. Finally I
hoard a good deal about Pink Pills through
common report; and although, as I satd, I
had nofuHh in medicines ot any kind, I was
induced to try them. Well, I took several
boxes without deriving any apparent benefit,
but was advised to keep it up. Ho, when I
went to Florida that year—three years ago
this summer—l took a large quantity with
me. After some months I stopping taking
them; but my legs had become so much
stronger and my ataxia had been so moder
ated t hat 1 could stand and walk better than
I had done for years. Pink Pills did it, aud
you can well imagine how I feel toward
them. They did what nothing else-could
do."
During the entire interview Mr. Welting
remained standing and evidently did not ex
perience the slightest disoomfort, in spite of
the protracted period of his affliction. Al
though well along in years, he is still ac
tively engaged in financial enterprises that
necessitate a vast amount of mental and ner
vous energy. Hufflce it to say he lacks
neither, but makes his influence felt where
ever he Is known. Besides being President
of tho Worcester Bank, Mr. Welting is also
President of theToledo City Bank, of Toledo,
lowa, where his adviee and sound business
policies are a coutroling element.
His commendation of Pink Pills came un
solicited, and with tho sincerity of one who
:fells what he says.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a con
densed form, all the elements necessary to

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A Jfovcl Heailuclie Cure.
A Boston apostle of physical oaltnre
says that an exoellent and never-fail

Simple act of walking bnokword. Ten
minutes are as long as is usually neces
sary to promenade. It sometimes,
however, requires more than ten min
utes to walk at all if one is very "ner
vous." But it is not understood that
it is necessary to walk a chalk line.
And kind of walking will do, provided
it is backward. It is well to get in a
long, narrow room, where the windows
are high, and walk very slowly, plac
ing the ball of the foot on the floor
and then the heel. Besides curing
headache, this exercise promotes a
graceful carriage. A half-hour's walk
backward every day will do wonders
towards producing a graceful gait.
This is something like faith cure, which
will not be attempted by the advanced
woman, who will take no steps back
