weighing, with the steel stud, about

To Induce Restful Sleep.
In the ability to obtain restful sleep
here is much variableness in the same
>erson at different times and under
lifferent influences. Profound sleep is
generally more refreshing than light
lumber, but the fact that one can be
ousea witnoui aimcuuy uucs
tlways signify that his rest is defiient.
Quiet slumber is always more
estful than sleep that is broken by
[reams, even though, the dreams be so
ight as not to be impressed upon
he memory.
The character of sleep is affected by
nany influences, both mental and phyiical.
The person who, upon retiring
or the night, fails to put away the
:ares of the daynhat is past or bor ows
the thoughts of the morrow, is
;low to reach the depths of sleep and
vakes but little refreshed.
An over-filled stomach prevents
ound sleep, but hunger should be reieved
before retiring, and for this purpose
there is nothing better than a
;lass of warm milk.
The bed should be smootn, dui neitnir
too hard nor too soft; the position
>f the body preferably lying on the
ight side, with the head not too high,
md the disposition of the limbs such
is to impede circulation of the blood,
[t is generally better not to interfere
ivith the fantastic attitudes of little
children until they have slept a while;
Dut the head must never be permitted
;o remain covered.
For a wakeful child a warm bath at
bedtime is better than drugs, and usually
more effective; and it is a safe
rule for older persons also to refrain
from taking medicines to induce sleep
until after they have tested the efficacy
of the warm bath.?Youth's Companion.
Housework at College.
At one of the oldest colleges in the
United States, Mount Holyoke, a certain
amount of domestic service has
been from the beginning exacted of all
the students. Mary Lyon, who founded
the college believed in recognizing the
dignity of labor, and thought the disnirwiina
whnip?Amf>. Prartieallv all the
LipilUU ?? juv*VW ??
work of the college was performed by
the girls.
When Wellesley College was established
some years ago in a suburb of
Boston a modification of this system
was adopted. Since it lias grown to
such vast proportions, however, and
has been so heavily endowed, the
housework requirement has been relegated
to the limbo of things superseded.
* It is still possible for girls to do
housework in one or two of the college
buildings, but it is not a requirement
of the curriculum. The student
now does it to obtain a definite reduc
tion in her expenses, amounting tc
from ?20 to ?30 a year. In some ol
the Western colleges for women almost
the entire cost of the course car
be paid in this way.?Correspondence

How many people know anything
about cardoon, even the name? In Europe
it is a common vegetable, especially
in France. It belongs to the same
class as the globe artichoke, and the
leaf stalks of the two are similar.
These stalks are blanched by tying
up in matting or straw, then earthing
up like celery. In four or five weeks
it will be ready for use. The seed
is sown early in spring on rich, moist
ground.
Turnip-rooted chervil resembles a
short carrot or parsnip. The flesh is
mealy and somewhat like the sweet
potato in flavor. It is distinct from'
the kind grown for its top and used
for garnishing. If fresh seed Is sown
in the fall or early spring, chervil
Is not difficult to grow. It succeeds
everywhere. Frosts improve it. When
the tops die it is ready for digging.
Scoizonera is occasionally found.
It is a black-rooted salsify, and is
grown in similar manner, but differs
in being a perennial. If left alone it
will continue to grow and remain fit
for use.
Skirret produces roots which grow
in clusters. The roots are sweet and

Carriage Horses and Roadsters. J
A noted horseman of the West con- 5
tributes an excellent article to the *
Rider and Driver from which we take
the following: J
The natural instincts of the Ameri- ?
can people naturally incline them to J
the admiration of a great horse of any 1
class, but they should not be swept '
into the whirlpool of horse breeding 1
on sentiment alone. It takes more '
than the love of the horse to be a sue- 1
cessful breeder.
Many will ask what is the shape *
and what are the requirements that 1
constitute a carriage horse? He 3
should be harmonious in all propor- '
tions, such as high withers; deep (
brisket; prominent breast; well sprung
ribs; good flank; head of medium
size, clean and bony; jowl not too 1
prominent; frontal broad; large clear ;
eye; ear small at base; of medium 1
length and sharp at point; throttle
small; neck long with slight crest; i
sloping shoulders; prominent muscles;
back short and powerfully muscled <
over the loins; curve to the tail;
strong hocks; legs, and feet, with flat (
bone and large cords; trotting action ]
quick; high and round, free and clean, 1
with not too long a stride. Such a
1 horse, crossed on mares of a few '<
handsome branches of the trotting 1
families might and probably would
give us what is wanted?the horse of
the future.
Years ago the Morgans were the
1 horses par excellence. They were
' handsome to look at and tough as wire
nails. They had good strong leg3 and
: strong hearts and stomachs. In color
they were blacks, browns, bays or
1 chestnuts. Their hair showed the luster
of health and the gleam of sun'
light, and they were spiced with the
1 temper of nerve force, but never stub
born. Physically, they were not large
horses, but they were all horse. Many
RDEN"
wore about 900 pounds in weight and
under 13 hands, but in harness they
looked larger.
You breeders that remember the
form and type of the Morgan horse
should realize that horses of that type,
weighing from 900 to 1300 pounds, is
what the world is looking for. This
high type of the carriage horse has
been produced and can be again by

A Lesson in Feeding.
J. P. P., Silver Lane, Conn.: I would
ike to get Dr. Smead's advice about a
torse eight years old that is thin iD
lesh, coughs a little occasionally, gets
:ired easily for a young horse and
nakes water frequently, but has a
morfv o nn/otif a onrl nolo onrl hhnl'q
,ita? tj uuu vuvw uuu v*?
tieartily. I have been giving him
powders for quite a long time for improper
digestion, as that is what a
ocal veterinary tells me is the matter
.vith him. His case is chronic and
>f long standing, following distemper,
tfe gets six quarts of ground oats, barey
and corn daily, a proprietary feed,
:imothy hay and oat straw hay. I also
!eed him once a day, usually, carrots.
Se is now used very little and gets
jood care.
There are several possible reasons
vhy this horse is not in a thriving conlition.
First, I notice your ration is
rot conducive to life and lasting
spirit; not an element in it which is a
>rotein food. The oats come the nearest
to it, but their ratio is 1 to 6. If
roil were feeding him- about twelve
piarts of ground oats daily with your
Jmothy hay he would do fairly well, I
hink, and if you were to add to that a
arge handful of linseed oilmeal I am
rery certain he would, providirf; he is
lot infested with intestinal worms.
3ut it would not be policy to feed that
juantity of oats to a half idle horse;
lence it would not be good judgment
;hus to feed him. I will call your atention
to some points on feeding:
The moderately worked horse retires
a food of a nutritive ratio of 1
o 7. Now, let us look at the one you
ire feeding. Oats have a ratio of 1
;o a little over b; Dane}-, 1 10 wm,
L to 10; timothy hay, 1 to 15; oat
straw, 1 to 30. Now, allowing that
roar grains were equally mixed, you
.vould have a grain ratio of about 1 to
>, and the hay and straw about 1 to
12; altogether, the ratio would be
rery nearly 1 to 15. Your horse could
lot endure much labor on that. He
vould lack spirit and muscular vigor,
vhile he might look quite well. He
simply would tire out quickly; hair
vould look rough; skin would be dry,,
ind the bowels either very loose from
;he inability to digest so much carjonaceous
food, or else be constipated,
[n either case his digestion would be
leranged, as the veterinary told you.
\!1 the digestive stimulants or condi:ion
powders kept in a drug store
;ould not change the ration.
Now, if you will drop the barley and
lorn and substitute some wheat midllings,
with a ratio of 1 to 4, and add
:he handful of linseed oilmeal so rich
ii protein, with a ratio of 1 to 2, and
;hcn use the oat straw for bedding instead
of food, you will be getting down
somewhere near what this horse's physical
needs require.
I spoke cf the possibility of worms.
\s he has been out of condition for
some months, he very likely has some.
:t is the calf thin in flesh that has lice^
ivhen the fat one has not; it is the
lorse with a poor or weak digestion
:hat furnishes the best home for
worms. With a good, strong diges:ion
the worm has to fight to live;
.vith a poor one, he can laugh and grow
:at. Hence I will advise that you fast
iiim for about sixteen hours; then
mix a tablespoonful of creolin with a
;uart of warm water and use as a
Irench. Follow in two hours with a
six-drach mdose of Barbados alloes,
with a spoonful of ginger added. Give
this also in water as a drench. If he
has worms you will see some of them
in his voidings in about twenty-four
hours. In that case repeat the dose
in a week.
As his digestion is weak I will suggest
that fer a month you give him
a. tablespoonful of the following:
Ground flaxseed, one pound, in which
mix three ounces of ground charcoal,
three ounces of bicarbonate of soda,
four ounces of ground gentian root
and two ounces of ground aniseseed.
Give morning and night.?M. D.

"My work puts me out in all kinds of v ^ -'M

meals and compelled to eat all kinds of
"For 7 5 ears I was constantly trou- ^
bled with indigestion, caused by eating
heavy, fatty, starchy, greasy, poorly
cooked food, such as are most accessi- *V J
ble to men in my business. Generally' '/yj
each medl or lunch was followed by ^ Vjj
distressing pains and burning sensa- ^
tions in my stomach, which destroyed
my sleep and almost unfitted me for
work. My brain was so muddy and /
foggy that it was hard for me to discharge
my duties properly. ^
"This lasted till about a year ago, ' Jj
when my attention was called to '
Grape-Nuts food by a newspaper ad. ''r.M
and I concluded to try it. Since then ; ll
I have used Grape-Nuts at nearly ev- 4 J
ery meal and sometimes between * 'ijj
meals. We railroad men have little |
chance to prepare our food in our ea- ||
booses and I find Grape-Nuts mighty vl
handy for it is ready cooked.
"To make a long story short. Grape- $
Nuts has made a new man of me. I ' '*t3
have no more burning distress in my
stomach, nor any other symptom of in- ^
digestion. I can digest anything so * :-jj
long as I eat Grape-Nuts, and my brain works
as clearly and accurately as an '?
engineer's watch, and my old nervous 1
troubles have disappeared entirely."
