Lime au?l Lime Water. i
The uses of so homely an article as '
lime about the household are almost 1
innumerable?just the ordinary lime ,
that one sees the 'plasterer and the 1
brick-layer use in preparing the pacts !
of plaster or mortar. A small piece of 1
unslauked lime in perfectly clean
bottle, with cold water poured over it? 1
fchp hnlt.lf* nnrkprl nnd kent in a pool. 1
dark place?is a full recipe for lime 1
water. It is ready for use in a few 1
moments after the water is poured on. i
This lime water has a number of uses,
as well as the lime itself. A spoonful
of it in a cupful of milk is a remedy for 1
the summer complaint common to
children. It is admirable for clean- 1
sing nursing bottles. It corrects acidity
of the stomach. It will prevent the
"turning" of milk or cream, and a cup- 1
ful added to bread sponge will keep '
it from souring. Allowed to evaporate
from a vessel over the stove, its steam
proves wouderful alleviation for the
distresses due to lung fever, croup or
diphtheritic ailment. It will sweeten
and purify bottles and jugs, etc., and,
lastly ; a few spoonfuls of it poured on
potted plants will rid them very effectually
of pot worms.
Lime itself, as every one knows,
is invaluable as a purifier and disinfectant.
Sprinkled in cellars and closets,
where thern is slight dampness, it will
not ouly serve as a purifier, but it is
a valuable preventive against the invasion
of noxious animals. In greater
cases, such as the disinfection of ves
sels and hospitals, it is recognized as a
chief agent. It is one of the notable
instances of the economy aud of the
bounty of nature that this article so
cheap and common, is serviceable in so
many Instances.
Antony the Poultry.
The best age to begin to feed fowls
for fattening is as soon as .they are fully
matured.
Preventing disease among the poultry
is safer than curing. Good food,
pure water, clean quarters prevent disease.
A good egg will sink in water. Stale
eggs are glossy and smooth of shell.
Boiling tbe milk that [is fed to fowls
will increase its value and lesson the
risk of its causing disease.
If properly managed a hen will
lay her weight in egg** in a year, but to
do this she requires proper material in
feeding.
Hempseed and suntlower seeds fed to
fowls help to make the plumage
smooth and glossy.
Nothing is more fatal to profitable
poultry keeping than evercrowdiug
especially iu winter, when the fowls
must be more or less confined.
Fowls that have a good variety of
food do not require artificial stimulants
to induce them to lay or to keep them
n good health.

Cleaning Fluid. !J 9
A bottle of really good cleansing
Huid is an almost indispensible article
in the household. The following is
excellent for removing spots from the
boye' jackets, cleaning dirty coat-collars
and dresses, and for washing any
kind of woolen goods, camel's hair
and alpaca for taking grease and dirt
spots from furniture:
Four ounces each of white castile
soap and ammonia, and two each of
alcohol, glycerine and ether. Cut tbe
soap fine and dissolve in one quart
of water over a slow fire; add one
gallon of water, and when nearly cold
tne other ingredients. It will make
nearly two gallons, must be kept in
a tightly corked demijohn, and will
keep good ror any length or time. Fill
a small bottle for convenience for daily
use.
To wash woolen dress goods, put
a teacupful in pail of warm water,
shake the goods well in this, rubbing
It lightly between the hands; rinse
well, and iron while damp on the
wrong side.
For cleansing coat-collars, add a gill
to a pint of water; apply with a clean
rag, and rub well with a second rag.
The health of animals can be determined
by the condition of the pulse
better than through any other means.
In horses, the pulse, at rest, beats forty
times per miuute, in an ox form fifty
to fifty-five, and in sheep and pigs
about seventy to eighty. When there
is any material variation from these
figures disease of some kind may be
suspected. If the pulse is faHt, hard
aud full, it is an indication of iuflammatiou,
or, at the, least high fever; if
rapid, small and weak, of low fever,
loss of blood or weakness. Irregular
action points to seme form of heart disease,
while slow, faint bears a sign of
brain trouble. The pulse can be felt
wherever an artery crosses a bone.
The easiest place to examine it in a
horse is on the cord which crosses over
the bone of the lower jaw ; or, at the
bony ridge just above the eye. Cattle
are generally tested on the first rib,
and sheep by placing the band on the
left side directly over the heart.
A Judge** Testimony.
The famous Judge, Sir Matthew
Hale, said in his day : "The places of
adjudicature I have long held in this
kingdom have given mean opportunity
to observe the origiual cause of most
nf thi> cimrmitpe thn>. huvi> hppn nnm
mitted for the space of twenty years;
and by due observation I have found
that if the murders and manslaughters,
the burglaries and robberies, the riots
and tumults and other enormities that
have happened in that lime were divided
into five parts, four of them
would have been the issue and product
of excessive drinking?of tavern and
ale-house drinking."
When a Christian goes wrong, he
makes it that much harder for some
sinner to go right.
Each of us has his or her place in
the world and no one else can fill it.

Concentration of thought and effort JnL J
is the measure of nersoual Dower. The ^
man who can put himself wholly and
absolutely into one thing has more ourd
power for that oue thing than he dreea *
would have were he twice or ten times ^ega
the man he is, and divided his energies piDk a,
betweeu two or ten things. Indeed the simply
man who compasses most in this, ^y8?j
world, doing the greatest variety of Gloves
things, and doing them well, is ourgoc
invariably the man who attends to Pleasm
but one thing at a time, and gives himself
up to that one thing while he is We i
doing it as if he had nothing else to prepan
live for. ggfo
