    Wizard with the Whip.
An Austro-Hungarian, named risks
lug, has created a sensation in Vienna
by his wonderful performances with a
whip—some of which are described by
the London Tit-Bits:
"The first tiling he does is to take a
long-lashed, stout-handled whip In each
hand, and, with orchestral accompani
ment, proceed to crack or snap them at
n. terrific rate. The sound made by his
whips lu tliis manner is graduated from
a noise like n rifie report to the soft
click of a billiard ball. It makes a curi
ous sort of music, and serves to show
how ho can regulate the force of each
stroke.
"More Interest Is evinced when ho.
seizes a vicious-looking whip with an
abnormally long lash. It is provided
with a very heavy hamfte of medium
length. This is his favorite toy, and
what he can do with It is really wonder
ful. He first gives nil idea of what fear
ful force may lie in a whip-lash in the
hands of an expert.
"A large frame, over which is stretch
ed a calf or sheep skin, is brought on
the stage. This is marked with dots
of red paint. The man with the whip
steps up. and swinging the lash round
bis head lets fly at the calfskin. With
every blow lie actually pulls a piece out
of the leather, leaving n clean-cut hole.
These pieces are distributed among
the audience to show that there is no
trickery about the performance. After
this he takes a frame with three
shelves. On these there are a dozen or
moreof medium-sized apples lying very
close together and provided with large
numbers. Any one in the audience may
designate which apple he wishes struck,
and tin* unerring lash snatches It out
like a flash.
"A still more difficult feat is the snap
ping of coins from a narrow-necked bot
tle. A piece of silver about the size of
a half-crown is put over the cork of the
bottle, which stands on the edge of a
table. The whip artist, without appear
ing to take any sort of aim, sends the
long lasli whizzing through the air and
picks off the coin without jarring the
bottle, much less breaking it."
HAVE YOU HAH LA GRIPPE J
II So, Look Out lor flip Consequence*.
La grippo is not only droadod boeauso of
tlio sulTeriug it causes whilo ono is afflicted
with it, but also because or the train of trou
bles which almost invariably follow it. A great
number of the people who have a siege of
la grippo fail to entirely recover. They feel
listless and tiro.l and have an eu ileus vurioh
of disagreeable symptoms.
As is well known, Pe-ru-na will euro la

SOTSOHJNO.
Snbsoiling is sometimes beneficial,
and sometimes useless, uud may bo in
jurious. Spring snbsoiling is not to
bo recommended. Whenever there is
a dry, hard subsoil, it will pay to
loosen it up. Whenever there is a sub
soil inolined to run together and be
come compacted, deep and thorough
loosening is just what is required. In
porous, gravelly subsoils tho process
is useless and often injurious. Sub
soil plowiug does not produce mois
ture ; it simply puts the ground in
good condition to receive and retaiu
moisture from precipitation. Tho ca
pacity of a porous soil to retain mois
ture is well illustrated by this bit of
experience: Early last spring the
writer had several loads of conrso
sand and gravel hauled und deposited
in piles of about one cubic yard each.
This was removed about tho end of the
protracted drouth. Six inches below
tho surface it was wet enough for any
pnrpoßO of plant growth. About the
same time post holes dug in the black,
still soil near by showed it to bo ap
parently perfectly dry as deep as the
augur wont, eighteen inches to two
feet. Subsoiling should neve' be done
when tho soil is very wet, for this
loaves tho ground in a worso condition
than before. Subsoiling should be
done in fall or winter, so that repeated
rains may settle it and fill it to satur
ation. After this a shallow stirring of
the surface will retain the moisture,
with but littlo Bnbsequout rain.—
Texas Farm and Ranah.
DEEP PLOWING.
A friend asks if it is any benefit to
plow run-down land deeply that has
only been skimmed over before. Woll,
1 cannot answer positively in your
caso. Wo havo been bringing up a
farm that was rim down and never had
been plowed deeply, and we know that
a gradual deepening of tho soil, by
plowing a little deeper each time we
break up a sod, has been of great
benefit to us. I believe that gener
ally this will bo true. We expose more
soil to tho action of frost and air and
sun. Wo get moro loosened up so wo
can pulverizo it and stir it nronnd.
Thus wo liberato more plant food, or
innko it available for our crops. Isut
now, thero are oxoeptions to this rule.
So tost tho mattor carefully for your
self. luoroaso depth of plowing very
gradually. The probabilities are that
you will see results that will cause
you to keep on. Your soil and subsoil
has considerable of clay in it, as has
nearly all of ours. Ou light, Bandy
land it would bo different, of coarse.
It will help "level laud" to tilo
drain it, whore water has to evaporate
from the surface, whero there is not
natural underdraiuage, so it can
readily soak down, and tho same of
rolling land, too. "Why were yon so
afraid of rain after sowing your wheat?
I should think it needed rain to start
the seed. Is it best to make soil so
fine?" It certainly is best for the
young plants to make a fine, firm seod
bed. It cannot be made too fine and
firm for tho good of tho wheat. Tho
plants cannot start and grow as well
in roughly prepared ground. The
littlo roots canuot get food as well. I
was not afraid of rain, but of hoavy
rain that would pack and run together
this dustlike soil, and wash much
down tho hillside on our rolling land.
I have had overy bit of wheat, along
with the soil, taken right out of tho
drill rows on a hillside by a heavy
rain after drilling. There would not
be so much risk on roughly prepared
land. But that is not as good for the
wheat. So wo make it fine and take
the risk. Now don't you see? —T.

THEE FABMINCI.
Tho importance of tree farming in
tho lands which, either from lack of
food matorial in them or from loca
tion, as on steep hillsides, are fit for
nothing else, and the money to be
made in it, is being quietly proved in
hundreds of localities in New Jersey
and Pennsylvania. Peoplo find no
difficulty in understanding whero the
money is in it. But that other reason
for treo planting, namely, to prevent
the loss of fertility und tho loss of
moisture, is rarely appreciated even
by those whose farms are washed away
by every driving rain.
The bulletin from tho Department at
Washington upon "Washed Soils"
says tho forest covering protects tho
soil in the following ways :
(a) By preventing rain from falling
directly upon tho soil, the foliage of the
tree crowns intercepting and breaking
its force, the water rcaohing the soil
more gently from tho leaves along the
brnnohes and trunks of tin trees.
(b) By intorposing a looso cover, a
mulch of littor, formed by tho fall on
branches and leaves, which breaks tho
direct force of tho raindrops, and
keepß tho soil from being compacted
or paddled by their blows.
(0) The deeply penetrating roots
and holes left from decayed stumps
and roots of trees assist in this under
ground drainage.
(d) The litter with the stumps and
protecting roots and trunks of tree 3
prevents tho water from rapidly run
ning over the ground and from gaining
tho momentum and force which "ii
necessary in order to gully tho soil,
and prevents tho drifting and the rapid
thawing of snow, thereby insuring
moro even distribution of the waters,
and increases tho time during which it
can be absorbed into tho soil.
Wherever the ground in hilly coun
try is not fit for agricultural uso it
should bo kept and set as forest, uot
only to make it produce a timber crop,
but to prevent fho washing. The for
est should occupy all hilltops, which,
as a rule, have too thin a soil for prof
itable agricultural use; it should be
kept growing on the steeper slopes
whore tbo water acquires tho greatest
momentum, and the loosening of the
soil by tho plow favors erosivo action,
and it Ehculd be on all rooky and un
even spots, beoaueo producing useful
material even on such unfavorable sit
uations.—Philadelphia Ledger.
WHAT TO FEED HENS.
Green bones nro not used as exten
sively as they should be, because grain
can bo obtained with less difficulty
and at low oost; but as egg-prod uoing
material, tho bono is far superior to
grain—nor doos tho bono really cost
more than grain in some sections.
The outting of the bone into available
sizes is now rendered an easy matter,
as the bone cutter is within tho reach
of all. Pones fresh from tho butcher
have more or less meat adhering, and
the more of such meat the better, as
it will cost uo more per pouud than
the bone, whilo the combination of
both meat and bono is almost a per
fect food from which to produoo eggs.
If the farmer can got two extra eggs
per week from each hen in winter, ho
will make a largo prolit. We may add
that if the product of each hen can bo
increased ono ogg per weok only in
winter, that ono egg will pay for all
the food she can possibly oousuiue,
and it theroforo pays to feed tho sub
stances that wilt iudueo tho hens to
lay. If the hens are consuming food,
and yet nro producing no eggs, they
will cause a loss to their owner; and
this happens every wiuter on a largo
number of farm.. The hens receive
plenty of food, but not of tho proper
kind.
A pouud of ont green bono is suf
ficient for sixteen hens ono day, which
means that ono cent will pay for that
number of fowls. If one qnart of
grain bo fed at night to sixteen hens,
and one pouud of bono in tho morn
ing, it should be ample for ouch day
(and the majority of fanciers do) we
find in winter. In summer only the
bono need be given. Such a diet
provides fat, starch, nitrogen, phos
phates, lime, and all tho substances
required to enablo tho hens to lay
eggs. As nu egg is worth about threo
cents in winter, it is i>laiu that it is
cheapor to feed bone than grain, as
tho greater number of eggs uot only
reduces tho total cost, but incroases
tho profits as well.
Tho bono cutter is as noooHsary to
tho poullryman as his feed mill. It
cunbles him to uso an excellont and
cheap food, and givos him a profit
where ho might otherwise bo com
pelled to suffer a loss. It is claimed
that tho bono cutter pays for itself in
eggs, and really oosts nothing. Bonos
nro now ono of the staple articles of
food for poultry, and no rations should
have them omitted. They are food,
grit and lime, all combined in one,
and tbo hens will leavo all other foods
to receive the cut bono. If out fine,
evou chicks and ducklings will relish
such excellent food, while turkeys will
grow rapidly ou it. To meet with suc
cess requires tho use of tho best ma
terials, una green bone beats all other
substnnees as food for poultry. There
is quite n difference between the
green, fresh bone, rich in its juices as
it comes from tho butchers, and the
hard, dry bono which has lost its suc
culence. The value of all foods de
pends largely upon their digestibility,
and tho more this is provided for the
greater tho Baving of food and the
moro economical the production of
eggs.—Poultry Keeper.
question ol Luck.
"I hato to henv people say thoro's
no such thing as luck," remarked the
melancholy Mr. Doohttle.
"I don't seo why," his wifo re
joined.
"Bceauso it isn't true," he returned
with asperity. "A man can go on
trying and trying and never get nlong.
And some other person will go ahead
nud tumblo into good things without
making any effort whatever."
"Hiram, nogrcut man hussuccoedcd
without hard work."
"That's tho kind of talk you always
hear. But nino times out of teu it is
all owing to the opportunity that pre
sented itself. Fortune just seems to
lie in wait to kidnap soino men. Look
at Sir Issue Newton. His name is
handed down from generation to
generation. And why? Siuiply be
cause he was sitting un*er a tree and
nu npplo happened to drop on him.
You can't protend that n man is in a
position to olaim superior merit
simply because, through no action or
preference of his own, ho gets hit in
the head with an apple, oan you?"
"No, Hiram."
"Then don't tell me about there not
being any such thing as luck."
"It soems to mo that you'vo chosen
a poor example in support of your
argument. The caso of fsaao Newton
goes to show that the differonco is in
the people. If it had been some men
thiit I know of instead ot Newton, the
first thingathcy would havo done after
the applo fell would havo been to go
into the house and moan for the arnica

two or three hours of precious time

-ARE OF HANGING BASKETS IN WINDOWS.
Be sure to see that suspended plants
get enough water, advises Eben E.
Uexford. Most persons complain that
they "haven't much luck with hang
ing plants." In nine cases out of ten,
the fault is their own. A plaut sus
pended at the height of one's head
above tho floor is iu a stratum of very
warm air where evaporation will take
olnoe with groat rapidity, and unless
water is given frequently and in lib
eral quantities tho soil in pot or
oasket will bo very dry beforo you
know it.
The best plan lltnow of for keeping
the soil in baskels evenly moist is this:
Take a tin cau and make a small hole
iu its bottom. Fill this with water
md set it on top of the soil in the
basket. By watching development a
tittlo you oau toll whether the holo in
tho cau is too large, too small, or just
the right size. It should ho of a size
to allow enough water to escapo to
koep t'uo soil moist all the time. It is
much easier to fill this cau daily, or
eftener if necessary, than it is to ap
ply water to tho surfaoe of the soil aud
liavo enough soak into it to peuetrate
ill parts of it. The foliage of the
plaut can bo so arranged about tho
can as to effectually oouooal it.—Now

MADE A GREAT SUCCESS.
An Editor Who Knew .Nothing About
the tfuaincsß, but Made Money.
I was talking with n printer the other

Farmer Squires' paper from that on.
He made a big Success of the paper, al
though he didn't know a four-pica lead
from a two-revolution Hoe, and he
did not do a thing toward running the
paper except making contracts for for

point; lie got hay knives, fanning mills,
sewing machines, pile drivers, washing
machines for advertising; lie accepted
all propositions. Including patent medi

political and moral end of the paper:

would stand on the he.l of the Fair

Prentice's Advice.
Once when George D. Prentice, of the
Louisville Journal, was coming out of
a public building in Louisville, lie was
about to pass through a double door
which opened both ways. 11c started
to push at the door on his right. A
young man coming from the opposite
direction was pushing at the same door,
being his own left. Prentice lost pa
tience, and throwing himself against
the door, it flew open, and the young
man went sprawling on the floor. As
sisting the youth to rise, Prentice re
marked: "Take my advice, my son.
keep to tho right in your way through
life, and you'll never run against any
body but a blamed fool, and you needn't
apologize to him."

RIPANS Tabules
I first heard of them through A fellow-workman who, 011 hearing my
tale of woe, one day offered me a Tabule and said he would guaran
tee it to act on the liver. I took it under protest, but was surprised
with the result. It was gentle but effective, and since then I have
gradually noted an entire change in the working of my system, and
I think that Kipans Tabules are the best remedy for liver and stomach
troubles this side of anywhere. They arc really in my case a substi
tute for physical exercise."

at the bottom of a well." We need some

and conquers and subdues the pain. Ad
pain trouble of a nervous nature needs enre
fal treatment and patience. The nffliotel
nerves must be soothed into submission, and

store. This is the virtue of the great remedy
for pain, and it is, therefoie, well known as
the best. It may be called the searcher after
the truth of our bodily ailments.
