A TYPICAL AMERICAN STORY.
This is the story that Air. Blaine 1
told the Prince of Wales, as a typical
American story, says Eli Perkins. (
Like all typical stories, it illustrates a
point. The Kilinaroo story shows '
that most of our troubles are iraagina- t
ry. Niue-tentbs of them never happen.
,
"Now," said Air. Blaine to the
priuce, "nine-tenths of our troubles {
never happen. They are all imaginary.
When we get to them they are
gone. They remind me of a man who |

ferry in a close box. Every now and
theu he would'open the box curiously, 1
peep in, and then close the lid myste- '
riously. His actions soon excited the
curiosity of a naturalist who sat on t
the seat by him. Unable to conceal i
'his curiosity further, the naturalist
touched him on the shoulder, and t
said: s
"I beg pardon, sir, but I am curious
to know what you have in that box. ,
"What is it?" (
"Oh, I don't want to tell. It will
get all over the boat."
"Is it a savage animal ?"
"Yes?kills everything." Then the
man peeped in again.
Still growing more curious, the nut- 1
uralist begged him to tell him its (
name.
"It's a Kil-ma-roo from the centre of f
Africa?a very savage beast?eats men r
and?"
"And what do you feed it on ?" in- t
terrupted the naturalist. s
''Snakes, sir?plain snakes !"
"And where do you get snakes j
enough to feed such a monster?" ask- ^
ed the eager but trembling naturalist.
"How can you feed a savage beast on
imaginary snakes ?" j.
"Well, sir, my brother in Brooklyn
drinks a good deal, has delirium
tremens, and when he sees snakes, we
just catch 'em and?"
"But these are imaginary snakes,"
argued the naturalist. "How can you
feed a savage beast on imaginary 1
snakes?"
"Why, the fact is," said the man, 1
.opening the box and blowing in it, t
"don't say a word ; this is an imaginary
Kil-ma-roo." , e

"GLASSES TO READ WIF." f
It was a warm summer day when
Uncle Ephriam Jackson, a worthy col- 1
ored man, entered an optician's shop, |
and removiug his tall white hat, and
wipiug the perspiration from his fore- r

volving stool, as if he feared it was
about, to run away with him, and \
asked for a pair of glasses "fer to read r
wif." c
"What number do you wear?" asked
the optician. t
Uncle Ephriam griuned. "I guess I j
wears two," said he. c
"Number two !" exclaimed the optician
in astonishment.'
"Jis' two glasses, sah ; one fer de
one eve, an' one fer de oder."
The optician looked at him with a
frown for an instant, but seeing that
the old man was innocent of any at- ?
tempt to make a joke, went on with *
the business before him. *
"Try on these," he said, picking out
a pair, "aud see if you can read the *
letters on that card over there." f
Uncle Ephriam carefully put on the t
spectacles, and looked eagerly at the
card. t
"Carn't read it, shuah, boss," he \
said, looking disappointed. i

"No go, boss," said Uncle Ephriam. ?
The dealer gave him another pair, j
and then another. Not one of them
enabled Uncle Ephriam to read,
though he struggled ever so hard, and j
wiped his forehead again and again in
considerable excitement.
"Look here," said the optician finally,
"can you read at all ?" (
"Nebber could read, boss," said s
Uncle Ephriam. "Dey nebber larned ?

ob people dat could read wif glasses '
dat couldn't read without'em, nohow, *
an' I made up my min' I'd see ef 'twas <

MORTIFYING i
The mau that boasts is on the high '
road to humiliation. Something like ^
that seems to be the lesson of an (
amusing little tale reported by the |
Cincinnati Tribune. It concerns the t
boyish son of a Presbyterian minister
of that city. <
He had been suffering from tooth- i
ache, and at last his father said: i
"Well, John, we will go the dentist <
tomorrow aud have the tooth extracted.
,
John was not much elated over such ,
a prospect, but he made the best of it, ,
ana straigntway Degau oi?ggiuS i? t
some of his playmates about the fearful
ordeal that he was to go through.
It was an "awfully big tooth," he told
them. The dentist would have to use
both hauds to pull it, and most likely
would be obliged to call in an assistant.
Well, the next day came, and in due
course the boy found himself in the '
big operating-chair, on each arm of 5
which he took a good grip.
The dentist looked into the open '
mouth, smiled, took up a small steel 1
instrument, thrust it under the offend- '
ing tooth and literally pried it out.
The boy looked at the tooth, and '
then at the dentist. Then he walked J
across the room, saying not a word, '
and began putting on his overcoat. 5
His father followed him and asked : 1
"Did it hurt you, my son?"
That was too much for the hero. I
Two big tears started down his cheeks. ]
"Hurt!" he said. "Hurt ! Why, I
he didn't pull my tooth out. He just i
took it out with a tacklifter." i

THE RATION FOR HORSES.
No rule can be laid down as to the
quantity of the rations that should
be supplied to young growing horse9
or to those that are matured. What
is euough to keep one animal thrifty
would starve another. About the only
safe rule is to let the condition of the
animal determine the quantity of the
ration. It always pays to keep all of
the horses on the farm in good, thrifty
condition. This is necessary with the
young horses in order to get the best
growth and development, and it is
quite an item to have this growth continuous.
At uo time is it necessary to
keep a growing colt fat. In fact, keepiug
him fut is a detriment rather than
a benefit. The ration should be one
calculated to develop bone and muscle
rather than fat. <
The work teams must be in thrifty
condition in order that they may do
the most work in the least time without
injury to themselves.
At this season it is best to commence
feeding a little grain or hay in connection
with pasturage rather than to let
them run down. It is always best to
allow the growing colts to run out a
every day that the weather will permit.
Colts, like sheep, need plenty of
rresn air uuu e&erciw j uui it uut
good economy to allow them to be ex- s
posed to colds or storms. '
One of the very best rations that can 11
be given to a growing colt is uuthrash- v
ed oats, run through a feed-cutter, to "
which a little wheat bran is added. If, '
after the bran is added, the whole is e
slightly dampened, it will be still bet- 5
ter. This makes a complete ration, as ?
it supplies the material needed for the >'
rtevelopmeut of bone and muscle.
It is a good plan to begin feeding a '
light ration of this in the fall, gradu- ally
increasing until they are giveu all
they will eat up clean.
When not at work it is less uecessary
than when at work. It is poor economy
because the teams are not at
work to let them run down with tne
the expectation of feeding better and
getting thera in proper condition later
on. The more economical plan is to
feed them enough to keep them thrifty
all the time. By keeping them thrifty
now less gruiu will be needed to keep
them soduriug the winter than if they
are allowed to run down now.
If, after the fall work is finished up,
the teams are given a 10 days' or
two weeks' run in the pastures, giving
in addition their regular grain ration,
it will be a great help in getting them
into good shape for winter.?The Republic.
i
Fruit as Medicine.?Why for '
ages have people eaten apple sauce .
with their roast goose and sucking pig? I
Simply because the acids and pectones
in the fruit assist in digesting the jj
fats so abundant in this kiud of food. t
For the same reason at the end of a .1
heavy dinner we eat our cooked fruits, c
uud when we want their digestive ac- *
tion even much more developed, we e
take them after dinner in their natural t
uncooked state as desert, says Popular J
Science Monthly. In the past ages in- j
stinct has taught men to do this; today j
science tells men whv thev did it, and 1
this same science tells us that fruit. J
should be eaten as an aid to digestion t
of other foods much more than it is <:
now. Cultivated fruits, such as apples,
pears, cherries, strawberries, etc., con- e
tain on analysis very similar propor- c
tions of the same ingredients, which c
are about 1 per cent, of malic and |
other acids, aud 1 per cent, flesh i
forming alhuraiuoids, with over 80 per \
cent, of water. *
Digestion depends upon the action t
of pepsin in the stomach upon the food, o
which is greatly aided by the acids of c
the stomach. Fats are digested by 1
these acids and the bile from the liver.
Now, the acids and pectones in fruit
peculiarly assist the ucids of the stom- t
ach. Only lately even royalty has j
been taking lemon juice in tea iustead jj
of sugar, and lemon juice has been t
prescribed largely by physicians to a
help weak digestion, simply because r
these acids exist very abundantly in ,v
the lemon. j
Fall Campaign Against Weeds.?
Inquiries are constantly coming to us 1
concerning the best methods of get- s
ting rid of noxious weeds, especially j.
perenainals. Begin by sowing the in- j
fested fields to oats in the spring, or ?
wheat or rye in the fall. Soon ji
after these small grains have been liar- v
vested, plow under the stubble, thus 1
checking the development of the first c
crop of weeds. When the second crop ^
has started on the plowed ground, go
over it with a disk harrow, corn cultivator
or other farm implement that j
will kill the young weeds. Repeat j
this operation as often as necessary c
this fall to prevent the maturing of ?
auy seed or the development of root .
stocks. Seed the field to winter s
grain again this fall and repeat the 1
operation again next year. If the Jj
weeds are very persistent, as the Can- t
ada thistle, quack grass, etc., cultivate the
fallow often enough to prevent -J*
any green leaf surface appearing. (.
Otherwise the underground stems will n
live for a longtime. This is the best *
method of treating an infested lield,
and if persisted in will be successful.
Now is the time to begin the work. Do j"
not neglect it.?Orange Judd Farmer. s
Points About the Cook Stove.? v
Too many housewives have the cook ||
stoves too low, thus causing it to be ?
productive of backaches to the mis- r
tress or maid who bends over it. The '
remedy suggested is simple, consisting
of placing the stove ou an elevated
platform, thus raising it to such a /
height as will bring the cooking uten- v
sils when on the stove within easy J
jeach to one standing in an erect or ^
nearly erect posture. In one case this g
required a platform about nine inches v
in depth, aud, to save the trouble and
expense of procuring a carpenter to
Dtlild it, the housewife secured an
>mpty packing box of the requisite
size from the grocer at a cost of only
10 cents. Brushed over with some
staining material corresponding with
he color of the floor, the platform
ooked neat and as though an estabished
part of the room. The addiional
expense involved was that of
idjusting the stovepipe to the new
:onditions. The top of the stove is
iow as high as the kitchen table, or a
idle higher, and the cook and every
>ne who has occasion to use it are deighted
with the change and the greatly
ightened labor.?Selected.

STATISTICS may not be absolutely cor
