COTTON iOIt FOR COJiStJMP.

Physician Bald to be Amsied at Be*
alts.
Denison, Texas, Dec. 8.?Cottonseed
oil will be the most valuable
remedy for the cure of consumption
that has yet beeu tried if the experiments
that have just been made are
as successful a? reported.
Dr. J. G. Ellis, of this city, has a letter
from his old friend, Dr. C. T.
H!ne8, of Monroe, La., who states
that it has been demonstrated beyond
doubt that cotton-seed oil is the best
remedy yet discovered for con sum p "*
? -- Its
lion, ue says lue uibuuvcij i? i?n
value was accidental. A negro working
in the cotton-seed oil mill at Modroe
bad been treated by several physicians
for consumption. He had not
improved. He went to work in the
oil mill, according to the statement of
DrHines. The dust made his breathing
much more difficult, and this
caused him to drink some of the oil
which releived hid breathiflg some
what.
The oil acted as a substitute for food
and the negro began to fatten. In a
few months he was strong and healthy
? " > ? J ? rl
J?e was examintu ?uu it was V/UUU |
that all traces of tuberculosis had left
him. The cottonseed oil had furnished
nourishment to the body and
had given him vigor which had overcome
the disease.
The result to the negro Was a revelation
to the doctors of Monroe aod to
test llie efficacy of the treatment they
began UBing it. In fifty cases upon
which they have experimented they
had the greatest success in accomplishing
cure*, especially the oases that
have not entered the last stages.
In the case of ooe person who had
< .' been to New Orleans for treatment!
and had returned withoat being bene-1
flted a cure was effected.
In adaDtinK the cottonseed oil to the |
practice the doctors have used the
usual dose of creosote, which has been
long used iu treatment for consumption.
New Year Thought*.
Why is it some" people wait for the
new year to "turn over a new leaf."
Because it is pleasant to ook forward
to doing better,, pdrhapa. It is so
ea?y to practice economy when one is
dead broke, or to deny ourselves rich
food when in the throes indigestion.
One's birthday is the proper time to
turn over a new feAf, if we ftto going

but tbe really, truly time Is now.
We are so prone to put off. Many
things can afford to wait, but spiritual
affairs can not, because no one knows
what a day ma; brine forth.
Those of us Who are fortunate
ehiougli to have kept our good old servants
are feeling serene. Those who
j are not accustomed to having any at
all are serener because they are mdei
pendent. Those who are wrestling
with a green hand have need of much
patience to come anywhere near
serenity. Laugb off tbe awkwardness.
What a ble&ing laughter is! Many a
woman would be in her grave or
! worse, a sanitarium, were it not for
laughter. I had a " new cook " of
the corn-field variety several years
ago and told her to dress a chicken
for broiling. After a while she called
in tbe most distressed voice. "Miss
Ellen come 'ere!" I went and she
held out the chicken for my inBpec^
iion. "Look at 'im ain't he sick?"

had burated the gall and it spread instautly
all oil over the inside of the
chicken making it as green as a
springing wheat field. What did I
do? I laughed until I cried and then
had u'im" rinsed in several cold
waters which removed all trace of his
illness.
I have a friend who is delicate and
who has a most attentive husband.
One afternoon her new cook failed to
put in her appearance. She was entertaining
a late caller and thought
the cook was about her duties. The
husband came home and finding out
how things were, like a good fellow,
took the reins into his own hands and
proceeded to carry out the domestic
I affairs without disturbing bis wife.
Tbe first thiDg he did was to get tbe
bucket and sally to tbe cow-pen.
When half through milking the
patient cow decided that patience had
indeed ceased to be a virtue, so she
hauled away and kicked over the
bucket of milk. He was dumbfounded
for a moment to ihink that bis
efforts of kindness was so misunderstood.
Tben he grabbed the bucket
and bit the cow in the bead with it.
Picking up tbe bent semblance of a
dollar milk pail he started angrily to
tbe house, but before he reached tbe
gate tbe absurdity of the whole thing
appealed to him And he laughed all
his anger away. Tbe new year has
hrmiffht sorrow to manv of us. and to
I many of us happiness. Let not the
latter refrain from pouring out her
sunshine into the house of gloom, for
th? more she gives away the more she
will have.
Tbe Farmer|nDd the Trusts.
The farmer Is nearer out of the
reach of the trusts than the man of
any profession. He can burn his own
wood, ^eat his own beef, pork, mutton,
eggs and corn cake, and sleep under
a roof that is not mortgaged to
any corporation.

Feed the Bird* y
Thoughtless people have not the fa
slightest idea of the suffering of wild ^
birds during frosty weather, or when _
the ground is covered with snow. The
little ones of the household should be
encouraged to remember the poor e
birds, so dependent at this time of 1'
year upon such assistance. Remains of n
cold boiled potatoes, broken small,
will be picked up eagerly; a bandful of t
rolled oats will be a perfect feast, and 8
cooked rice, barley, peas, etc. left from p
a meal, are all much appreciated by ?
them. The; pleasure of watching the
birds is very great?especially no cbil- a
dren, whose natural love towards all
dumb creatures is intensified by the b
knowledge that they are befriending t
them, and perhaps saving them from a n
cruel death. Those living in a city ^

Water, too, is a thing which few peo- *

sardine tin filled with water and t

We are glad to know that a testimonial
was given to the author of our "
sublime national hymn, which, adopt- D

When In 1869, a{ the feativ&l of the n
great Congress of our Humane Socie- tt
ties of all nations at Zurich, Switzer- p
laud, this tune was played by tbe

Colors* n
Colore not only influence cattle, but b
human beings also. On this point &
some curious experiment were re- A
ported from Italy as to the effect of 6
colors on tbe nerves of the sick and in- ft
sane. In the hospital for insane at 4
Allessandria special rooms are arrang- n
ed with red or blue paint on tbe walls.
A violent patient is brought suddenly ?!
into a blue room and left to the effects ^
of that color on his nerves. One ma- ?
iiiac was oured in an hour; another ti
was at pqpce in his mind after passing *
a day in a room all violet. The red k
room is used tor the commonest form
of dementia (melancholy), usually ac- v
companied by a refusal to take food.
After three hours in the red room a
a patient afflicted in this way began
to be cheerful and asked for food.

MPROVIfiQ EARTH ROADS WITH CLAY
AND SAND.

Road Machines In uuiiaing men
Highways.
Id an Interesting address delivered at
he Greenville (Mich.) good roads con ention
Fraak F. Rogers, 0. E., had
he following to say regarding the imirovement
of earth roads:
If you must always have an earth
oad and cannot get gravel or stone at
. reasonable cost, put clay on the sand
nd sand on the clay. When these beome
suitably mixed, they will form a
rtnt nf hnrrinnn mflklmr fl verv STOOd
bad surface at most seasons of the
fear. . Of course, the clay Is good when
lard and dry and the sand quite passage
when the weather Is so wet that
lobody wants to travel, but to secure
medium earth road, good the greatBt
number of days in the year, that It
i possible to make it, this is the best
Method that we can prescribe
It should be borne in mind that neiber
improvement is very good until
uitably mixed, and clay should be applied
to sand in a manner to secure
bat mixture as speedily as possible
nd vice versa.
Decide on the width of a given road
etween ditches?say twenty to twen
y-four ,feet not much narrower and
ot much wider. These are economical
rtdtha, and the lack of uniformity in
his particular is one of the greatest
Tils of our lack of system In road
uilding all over this country. Bring
be road to a suitable crown from
welve to eighteen Inches above the
ide gutters. This, however, will have
d be varied to meet the special needs
f drainage for the locality, and should
large ditch be required on a narrow
oad it should be entirely outside the
egular gutter, which will protect the
ehicles from the danger of tipping
ver.
To prepare thfc bed It may have to be
lo*ed toward the cehter, but, if So^
o not disturb the old roadbed unless
bsolutely necessary. After plowing,
arrow thoroughly, take a road mabine
and shape the whole bed to a
erfectly rounded 6hape and roll till
o more compacting Is possible with a
aller weighing four tons or more. A
arm roller If of little use for this parose.
After the bed 1b properly shaped and
Dlled as described take a road mabine
ahd crowd enough earth to each
[de of a central strip of such width as
: may be desirable to cover with clay
r gravel. This being done, clay should
e applied on sand to the depth of five
r six Inches where no gravel is used
nd to the depth of three of four inches
rhere a dressing of as much gravel
an be placed upon the clay. After the
lAy is applied, it may be leveled with
road machine If well pulverized, or,
! lumpy, It may be lfeveled by first
>lling to crush the lumps, then harjwing
till smooth, but in each case it,
lust be rolled till hard after a smooth
iirface has been secured.
Where no gravel is used the clay
inst be covered with from one to two

lachlne and crowding a little of the
orpins sand from the sides to the
enter. Thia will prevent the roads
rom becoming muddy at the first wet
pelL If a top dressing of gravel is
sed, it should be applied to the thin
oat of clay immediately after foiling,
a en be brought to a true surface by
tie use of a road machine and rolled
ill it Is thoroughly compacted. If the
reather la dry, the gravel should be
ept sprinkled during the final rolling.
When sand is used on clay, we
anally secure as good results as by
utting clay in sand, for it does not
lways prevent mud when the ground
i extremely soft A clay road should
lw?no ha wall nltoH with trrwl hIHa
Itches, which must quickly take the
rater to Its nearest natural outlet,
rhlch In turn must always be so
rell kept as to take the water at once
way from the road allowance. Sand
hould be applied to clay after the
lcklng is done, without forming any
lepresslon for Its reception, as has
een recommended for gravel. Sand
hould never be applied at a season of
be year when a long dry spell Is expected,
but rather Immediately before
ret fall weather and winter sets In,
o that by the next season It may beome
sufficiently mixed with clay to
iroduce the condition already referred
a The same practice should be emiloyed
when any considerable depth
f loose gravel is applied to a clay soil
rith the expectation that travel will
oake It hard.
The application of sand and gravel
o clay, as above described, can be done
n ifivpm pi vine time for the first layer
o pack before the second Is applied,
t is often advisable to wait till the
text fall before the second layer is
pplied, thus giving time to watch remits
and use Just the depth required
o secure the best effect, as well as to
conomize material. After all this is
lone, we have not secured a permanent
oad suited to heavy traffic, and we
hall be obliged to look to the better
grades of gravel and broken stone to
iroduce any roads that may really be |
tailed permanent
The Care of Earth RoaAi.
Earth roads hould be repaired, particularly
in the spring and fall of the
rear, but the mistake of letting them
ake care of themselves during the
>alance of the year should not be
nade. The greatest need of the comnon
road In this country is daily or
weekly care. A road receiving dally
ittention will require no extensive re alrs
and Instead of becoming worse
vill gradual]- improve. It Is minute
md frequen. homeopathic treatment
hat the earth road needs.
HOW TO BE HEALTHY.
B?1m to Be Obaerred In the Matter <
of Diet And Exerclae.
Positively avoid a habitual diet com' <
poeed too exclusively of one kind of J
food, such as meats or cereals. Such <
& diet leads Inevitably to disease. <
Many cases of sickness, palpitations, <
curvy, skin diseases and headache
are directly due to this Improper diet.
Bear in mind that sugar and all
sug&rea or Birupy suusumtw, uixieoa
sparingly used, are the most Injurious
of the foods In ordinary use. They
render digestion Imperfect and by
their seductive taste are liable to Induce
overeating.
Eat sparingly of fruit, preserves,
veal, pork, young lamb, kid, ham, ba^
con, sugar, vinegar, spices, fats, oils,
fried foods, pastries, cakes, rich desserts,
strong gravies, hot freshly baked
bread and foods which form adherent
pastes.
Avoid cold drinks at mealtime, except
In hot days. Avoid uncomfortably
hot drinks. Avoid eating at irregular
hours. Never overrule your appe
tlte, which is the best index of the
ainount of food yoa need, except in
the course of diseases that require a
special diet
Satisfy your appetite, not your glut- j
tony; satisfy your thirst, not your
craving. '
Salt your food sufficiently, because ,
salt fe an aid to digestion, but not <
more than needed to suit the taste. ,
Eat less rapidly and chew your food
more. The stomach wants only well .
chewed food. The teeth were made ;
for that special purpose. If they are ?
pbor or missing, seek the dentist's aid. *
Avoid violent exercise and severe ,
mental exertion just after meal, but a \
moderate exercise, as walking, will ?
aid digestion. \
Wash your hands with soap and wa- ?
+*r hpfnrp each meal, even If they do '
not appear unclean.
Brtsh your teeth inside and outside
at least once a day, and rinse yonr
month after each meal.
When your stomach is out of order,
give it a rest by fasting half a day or
by taking only a little fluid food.
Remember that the wholesomest
meats are beef, mutton and poultry
cud that beef and mutton are most
easily digested and wholesome when
broiled, roasted or stewed, not fried.
Remember that pure water is the
most natural and wholesome beverage.
A glass of pure water every morning
before breakfast will go far toward
preventing sickness and extending life
toward the century mark.
How to Make Turkey Shortcake.
Make a biscuit dough and bake it in
a shallow square tin, as for ffult shortcake.
Take one cupful of cold turkey,
minced; beat wltn one cuprui ot gravy <
and season with one-half teaspoonfnl 4
of salt and one saltspoonfnl of .pepper. !
When the crust Is done, split and put <
the meat between the layers, pour the \
sauce over It and garnish with parsley. <

How to Hike Potato Keiti. 1
Lattice potatoes are an excellent ac- )
companiment to the fish course and aft- 4
? a few trial efforts are easily prepar- J
ed. Wash and pare the potatoes and <
let them stand for a time In Ice water. J
Ctrt them Into very narrow strips,
throwing them Into Ice water as they
are cut Then drain and thoroughly ;
dry enough to pack into a strainer i
which is about the size of a teacup and :
force into the middle of the potatoes a i
smaller strainer. Pry this in deep,
very hot fat When a golden brown,
remove the two strainers and stand the ]
potato nest on soft brown paper. Re- j
peat the process until there is a nest j

the nests with fish a la reine and serve
on a bed of cress.
Bow to Make Tooth Powder.
Take half an ounce each of powdered
orris root and prepared chalk and
add to them one teaspoonfal of bicarbonate
of soda. Mix thoroughly. The
soda acts as an antlacid and neutralizes
the adds of the mouth, while
the chalk and orris are gritty enough
to remove any particles of food which
may cling to the teeth.
How to Treat the Llpi,
The lips should never be rubbed with
tronz scent, such as eau de cologne or
vinegar or lemon. Friction Is also
very bad for their well being. Lipu
may be only a pale pink, but if they are
smooth and soft they will look attractive.
Rouge 1b also very bad for
the lips. Some women have a stupid
way of "biting the color Into their
lips." Not only does this unwise practice
make the skin very sensitive, but ,
it also thickens and swells the lips till
they lose all charm.
How to Make Raw Beef Tea.
This Is ordered in some Illnesses.
Take one-quarter pound of lean beef,
hred It finely and place In a jar with
one-quarter pint of cold water. Cover
It and allow it to stand for two hours.
Strain off the liquid and use at once, as
