In very recent commu nication from thin place come the new that Mr. Arthur Krnest Kiild, a well known architect of thnt city, ha made completa recovery from catarrh of the head, from which he had differed for nearly a quarter of a century. He write from 18 Hamilton ave.: "I am 42 year of age, and have had ca tarrh of the head for over half of my life, a a result of scarlet fever, followed by typhoid fever., 1 jot so bad that I wa al moat constantly coughing and clearing my throat. The catarrh greatly impaired my eyesight, and the hearing in one ear, and reduced my weight to 110 pound. "I tried nearly every catarrh remedy ad vertised, beside a great many different physician' treatments, all of which failed "I had heard and read of Tcruna, and finally decided to try it two month ago. I hare now taken seven bottles, and weigh 172 pounds. Never felt happier or merrier. Feel tip top." A. E. KIDD.

Of all the quaint Industries which furnish a livelihood for a corps of workers there la none more worthy of comment than the sacred furnace of Mon-VVar, erected and supported by the religious fervor and reverential sentiment with which the Chinese re gard tholr letters and papers. In every Chinatown, however small, a building dedicated to Confucius ran be found. and to every almoml-eye celestial that building Is sacred. Sacred from the Inscription over tho door to the blue smoke that, curls up and mingles with the fog, for It is the oven wherein are incinerated all the letters, newspapers and old books of the Chinese quarter. Every scrap of paper upon which a Chinese character has been written or printed, when Its purpose In the bus iness or social work has been accom plished, is burned In a porfumed blase, and the ashes are disposed of with reverential care. That they may not become contaminated with the touch of human fingers, they are, with sacred shovels, scooped Into sacks and are carried out to sea, where the tide runs swift, and there they are given Into the care of old Neptune, who re spects equally the customs of all na tions.

At nmahsrlnc Time, ' In a rssk of water sufficient to scald a 200-pound hog. throw In three or four hamlfuls of finely pulverized pine pitch. Stir the water a little, then scald your hog, and If you'll keep It on the water long enough all the bristles, with the scurf skin, Will peel off with the great est ease, scarcely leaving a bristle any where. Even tho toenails will mostly all come off. At the scalding of rnch subsequent hog add another handful of pitch. The effect of pitch In water will astonish anyone who hns! never seen It tried. Should someone supg'st that tar Is as good or anything ap proaching it, say positively no. After a hog is scalded In this way there Is hardly a bristle left on to shave off. Charles Haines, in Orange Jiuld Far mer, drain Heflrleat In I. line. The grains are deficient in lime and mineral matter, while clover is rich In those materials. Corn contains 10 per cent of water and clover hay IB per cent Of the dry matter corn has but 1 1-2 percent of ash (lime magnesia, potash, soda, etc.), while clover has over 6 percent Clover hay contains 12 percent of protein and corn 10 1-2. Corn Is rich in starch and fat, however, con taining twice as much as clover. Clover hay has more crude fibre than the grain, hence Is less valuable in that direction. While many farmers have always made clover hay a specialty In feeding adults, yet it is more valuable for young stock than may be supposed. If cut up very fine, and then scalded. It makes one of the best rations In win ter for poultry and will promote lay ing. For ducks and geese It cannot be excelled. If cut very fine and mixed with cooked turnips and carrots, clover hay will be relished by young pigs, and it will promote rapid growth. In some sections clover hay Is ground Into what Is termed "clover meal," and It Is then sold In bags. Cornmeal Is too fat tening for certain animals, but In win ter It may be used more freely, being an excellent ration when used In con nection with clover. Preparing Celery fnr Mnrlmt, When placing stock In storage, con sider the amount of your trade, so as to have the celery ready at the proper time. You must have a sufficient control of the temperature of the stor age pit to be able to keep certain parts of It warmer than others, so aa to con trol the ripening. Tho dressing should be done In the pit to avoid breakage In handling and saving moving the waste, at a time when It Is neither cheap nor conven ient to do so. Remove all yellow or decayed stalks, then cut the root to a point, being careful not to cut too high. This takes five or six strokes with a 6 lnch butcher knlfo. Hold the plant with the root from you and cut with a mo tion as If you were whittling shavings. The washing room should be in a warm basement or room where water Is convenient and a boiler or caldron at hand to warm water. A square cor nered tub Is most convenient. Use plen ty of water and have it quite warm, 90 to 100 degrees. This gives a gloss to the celery not obtainable with cold water. Dump a box of celery into the tub with the butts toward you; then with a com mon soft scrubbing brush give each head two or three downward strokes with the brush. This takes all the dirt out of the creases and gives it a bright shiny appearance. The Her stands at the table and ties It up four bunches to the dozen, using common white wrapping twine for the purpose, and running it twice around each bunch. All decayed loaves or tips should .bo carefully clipped off. It is now ready to pack for shipment or home delivery. If you have a large amount of celery, it is sometimes well to grade it, making a fancy of the larg est, and a standard grade of the re mainder. Do not try to bring your trade to the size of your packages to suit the trade. We have found that a case hold ing about one bushel is as large as it is profitable to use. This will hold about ten dozen good sized celery, Line case ,..th paper to avoid drying in warm weather and freezing In cold. Ship by express after cold weather .sets In. I. C.

Sanborn at North Adams, Mass., before the state board of agrl culture, was on "Beef Production In New England," and was listened to with attention by a large audience of farmers. Said Professor Sanborn: "Conditions permanent In character have brought the steer again Into the range of profitable production in New England. The profitable steer here must be the product of high art He must have the beef form, as this brings more than the dairy form, with Its maximum of cheap parts. He Is neces sarlly a hothouse product growing and fattening continuously from birth to death. Maintenance Is eleven pounds a day on his average weight, and should not he lost by a single day's failure of rapid growth. Nor can a year's time be necessarily added, for it means two tons of fodder to run tho machine this time a fatal amount He must go to the shambles at the lowest weight that will command the highest value, as It will require three times the food to make s pound of growth on s maturing steer that is called for the first four hundred pounds' growth. It la shown that twice the growth a day Is made the first year that occurs the fourth year, so that a double loss occurs te one making an unnecessarily heavy steer. Palatable foods In abundance or great skill In feeding are required, as free consumption Is the basis of rapid growth. Old bushy pastures cannot be the basis of cheap beef, forlhey afford neither, abundant nor palatable foods. These pastures muRt be rid of weeds and hushes and fed. Protein foods In eitner the coarso foods fed or In the grains or meals must constitute a part of the ration, though not to the extent advocred by students of (lerman feed ing tables. It requires for a pound of butter fat under high feeding some twenty-five pounds or more of food. This food will make over two pounds of steer, probably two and one-half pounds, as I have made a pound of prowth on a steer of average weight on nine pounds of dry matter. If the meat Is the product of a good breeder and feeder It will net about the same as butter, labor considered." rtaforms In lalrylng. There Is a growing tendency to make reforms In the dairies, and there Is no department on the farm which de mands more consideration than the present methods of handling both cows and tholr milk. It Is claimed that there Is more filth and less care In dairying than In almost any other oc cupation. The milk Is to be "sold" and "the dealer Is not particular,' while the consumer Is In blissful Ignorance of any of the conditions affecting the preparation of milk. Milk passes through so many hands from the cow to the consumer as to render the mat ter of obtaining pure and clean milk a difficult one. The dairyman consoles himself with the fact that he strained the milk before selling it, but the strainer does not remove soluble filth. A pinch of salt or sugar In milk Is not arrested by the strainer, nor Is any other substance that Is dissolved by the milk during the act of milking. Those who handle cows know that it Is not unusual for a cow to get down on 'the floor of her stall to rest, without regard to whether the floor Is covered with manure or urine, and her udder and teats may have rested during the night on a heap of fresh manure. The cow is not as clean as the hog as far selecting a suitable place for resting Is concerned, and where the dairyman himself is careless and does not keep the stalls clean, as well as brush and even wash the cows. It Is almost im possible to have clean milk. It is grati fying to notice, however, that some dairymen wash the udders and teats of the cows at every milking, wiping with clean towels, avoiding every chance of filth entering the milk, but such dairymen get good prices, which are secured by their reputations for Bklllful management of their cows and their products. The ordinary dairyman Injures his business and loses profit by purchas ing fresh cowb from other parties. Some of them will sell a good cow as soon as she becomes dry and buy one In her place that Is fresh, but which may be much Inferior to the one sold. Then there is the liability of bringing disease, as that great scourge of the dairyman abortion among cows is contagious, being carried from one herd to another through the practice of selling the dry cows and buying oth ers that may do barm and which may not be worth the room they occupy. Then, again, the calves are taken from the cows when two or three days old, and the milk from their dams Is added to that taken from the other cows of the herd, although such milk is ropy and usually unfit for ubo, being inju rious to children who are fed upon it The milk from fresh cows should go to the calf until It Is at least a month old, but as the average dairyman milks his cows for the purpose of selling their produce he will not willingly sac rifice to the calf an article that bo can put on the market. The result Is that the milk sold In the cities Is of variable quality, much of It is unclean, and Bomo of It unfit for human use. There is room for Improvement, and there are hundreds of consumers ready and will ing to pay the dairyman for his extra care if he will provide them with milk of the best quality. It may take time to build up such a trade, but any dairy man will make It a point to seek such customers and assure them that he may be depended 'upon will find that he cannot easily supply the demand. The best milk Is from good and wholesome food. At this season of the year pasturage cannot be provided or the cows given an opportunity of se lection of good In the fields, but selec tion by the dairyman of the foods giv en at the barn Is a matter which should not be overlooked. Each cow in a herd Is an Individual, and must be treated accordingly. If she rejects foods that are readily acceptable by the others she should be allowed something which to her Is more palatable, and a variety of food Ib always better than the use of a single kind, as the health of the ani mals can only be promoted by supply ing them so as to satisfy their wants. When a cow Is sick or "off her feed" the milk is then unfit for use and should be allowed to eat all that she re quires, as such cows are usually large producers and demand more food than Inferior animals. Every dairyman should breed his cows and make It a point never to buy a fresh one. If his herd Is healthy and free from disease be can then keep his animals In good condition with less difficulty, while the yield of milk from each cow will be more than doubled In a few years by Judicious breeding and selection. The buying of fresh cows by dairymen has been the greatest curse that has ever been encountered by them, as it is the foundation of all dUeases and losses among the herds.- Philadelphia Rec ord. . . i , SUNSHINE AND MUSIC.

Dovll's Lake in North Dakota, the largest body of water in the state, cov ers about 350 square miles. It Is a glacial lake, and once bad an outlet to the south into the Cheyenne river, through a channel which is now well marked and empty. Observations for the last nineteen years show an almost uninterrupted sinking of the water level. Groves of trees, which once stood at the beach, are now separated from it by broad strips of land, and the shallow parts of the lake notably the long arms and bays, have been left quite dry.

Plant for Their Construction Owns Its Being to the Spanish War. The United States will shortly pos sess a plant capable of turning out for roast fortifications, and complete In every detail, the world-famed Oruson turret. Not only Is the plant assured, but work has actually commenced on the erection of the necessary buildings, and to such an extent have the plans progressed thnt the canting of the plates for the intltlal turret could. If required, be commenced In six months hence. The ralson d'etre of tho new Industry Is primarily the recommenda tion of the Kndlcntt Hoard of Ordin ance and FortUVatlons, calling for em placements of 22 turrets at coast points of the United States; but In tho main the new plant owes Us being to, the conditions which confronted this conn try on the breaking out of the war with Spain In 188, and to existing condi tions which make Imperative the adop tion of a system Impregnable to gun attack. Tho mw organization Is called the Oruson Iron Works, and will carry on the manufacture of all de scriptions of chilled Iron work and heavy castings requiring special strength and redstonce for naval and marine work. Tho Interests associat ed with tho new company Include the Inrgest manufacturers of chilled Iron In America, and the works will be equipped with everything requisite for the manufacture of the largest rTillled castings, to which the particular plant for finishing Oruson turrets can be quickly added. The site for the new works is on the banks of the Delaware at the little town of Eddystone, and distant only a few miles from the city of Chester, Pa. This Bite was selected largely because of Its tide-water facili ties, and with special reference to the needs which must arise Incident to the shipment of heavy turret equipment Ownership of 8treet Trees. Should street trees be owned and controlled by tho city or by the abut ting property owners? The weight of opinion among those entitled to speak with some authority on the question Is that municipal ownership of street trees Is necessary for the best results, and Is besides the natural condition of things. Washington City Is a famil iar examplo of a systematic and suc cessful development of street shade trees on all the thoroughfares where trees are desirable. Street trees through private ownership are neces sarily a thing of shreds and patches and subject to the caprice of unin structed owners and the barbarous butchery of tramp primers. Neverthe less, there are under private ownership some good results In wayside trees here and there, while public ownership Is not always a success. City ownership and control of trees Is the beet if that control Is enlightened and sympathetic. The Population of China. Some doubt haa been thrown by rec ent travelers upon the correctness of the accepted notion that China 1b land of teeming population. It has been asserted that the human hives along the seaboard and the great rivers of China ought not to be taken as basis for estimates; that In those parts of the empire, which He off the main routes of -traffic (the natural and ar tificial watercourses) the population of China Is comparatively thin. A cen suse recently taken by the Pekin gov ernment for the purpose of essesss- lng taxes to meet the Indemnity pay ments seems, however, to prove the ac curacy of the older estimates. The census shows that the 18 provinces of China proper contain 407,737,305 Inhab Itants; that Manchuria has 8.500,000, and Mongolia, Thibet and Chinese Turkestan a little over 10,000,000. The total poulatlon of the empire is 426,- 447,325, according to this enumeration. The absolute reliability of Asiatic sta tistics is questioned; nevertheless, the agreement of the results of the census with the accepted estimates Is so close as to Invite confidence. Tho statement that the Chinese Empire contains one third of the human race will hereafter be regarded more than ever as an ap proximate truth. Sweden has 324 co-operative socie ties, with a membership of over 8,000.

BEAUTY AMD PURITY Ancient and Modern Ideas on the Subject. Time and Disease the Effacing Agent3 of Beauty. What Has Science Done to Restore the Lily and the Roso?. Socrates railed taanty s short-llred tyranny, I'lato privilege of nature, Theocritus a delightful prejudice, Tlieop! .-astns a silent cheat, Carneades a solitary kingdom. Homer s glorious gift of nature, Ovid a favor of the god. Aristotle affirmed that beauty was better than all the letters of recom mendation In the world, and yet none of these distinguished authorities has left os even a hint of how beauty Is to be perpetuated, or the ravages of age and disease df fled. Time soon blends the Illy and the rose Into the pallor of age, disease dots the fair face with cutaneous disfigurations and crimsons the Koman nose with unsightly flushes, moth. If not rust, corrupts the glory of eyes, teeth, and Hps yet beautiful by defacing the complexion, and nils tha sensitive soul with agony unspeakable. If such be the unhappy condition of one afflicted with slight skin blemishes, what must be the feelings of those In whom torturing humors have for years run riot, covering the skin with scales anil sores snd charging the blood with poisonous elements to becomo a part of the system until death? It Is vain to attempt to por tray such suffering. Death In many cases might be considered a bleaalng. Tha blood snd fluids seem to be Im pregnated with a fiery element which, when discharged through the pnrea npon the surface of the body, Inflames and burns until, In his efforts for relief, the patient tears the skin with his nails, snd not until the blood flows does sndlclent relief come to cause him to desist. Thus do complexions defects merge Into torturing disesse, and piqued van ity give place to real suffering. A little wart on the nose or cheek grows to the all-devouring lupua, a patch of tetter on the palm of the hand or on the limbs suddenly eovelops the body In Its fiery embrace, a bruise on the leg expands Into a gnawing ulcer, which reaches out Its fangs to the sufferer's heart In every paroxysm of psln, a small kernel In the neck mnltipllea Into a dozen, which eat away the vitality, great pearl-like scales grow from little rssb-like Inflammations In such abun dance aa to pass credulity ; and so on may we depict the sufferings to which poor human nature Is subject, all of which Involve great mental distress because of personal disfigurations. If there were not another external disease known, eczema alone would be a sufficient Infliction on msnklnd. It pervade all classes, and descend Im partially through generation. While some are constantly enveloped In tt. Others have It confined to small patches In the ears, on the scalp, on the breaat, on the palms of the bands, on the limbs, etc., but everywhere Its distinctive feature Is a .mall watery blister, which dischsrges an acrid fluid, causing heat, Inflammation, and intense Itching. Ring-worm, tetter, scalled head, dandruff, belong to this scaly and ltcblug order of diseases. Psorla.il, our modern leprosy, with Its mother-of-pearl scale, situated on a reddened base, which bleeds npon tha removal of the scale, Is to be dreaded and avoided, a of old.
