Across his bronzed face there cones a look of determination, and, with quick oraers to the seanen, the craft is put about and all sail made for tho nearest harbor, . where In apparent safety the anhoi i dropped, gud the hardy mariners watch the approacing storm with de iance. The storm-burstel The decks tavb been learad, the sails close furled, and all ordinary preparations made for an emergency.

The anchor chain ips broka4 t This m ighty ship might have 'ridden safely, but for one weak link in that anchor thain me . The strength of, the 'thain Is eo greater than the strelgth of its weakest link. On the sea og life,' how many . men are wrecked because of the unslfpeoted weakness of a link in the chain of health,-one weak vital organ in the " body. The mystery of death is even greater than the.mystery of life. We think the links of our chain are strong, but we too seldom critically examine them for ourselves, and never really know that they will bear the strain that we put uhon them. "I have a riend," said Dr. D o Lewis, "sewho can lift. 900 pounds, and yet is a habitual sufferer from kidney and liver trouble and low spirits." The doctor who was one of the wisest and safest public teachers of the laws of health, wrote: "The very marked testimonials from college professors, respectable phys . cian. and other gentlemen of intelli gence and character, to the value of Warner's safe cure, have greatly sur prised me. Miany of these gentlemen I know, and, readigag their testimony, I was impelled to purchase some bot tIes of Warner's safe cure and analyze It. Besides I took some, swallowing three times the prescribed quantity. 1 am satisfied that the medicine is not injurious, and will frankly add that if I found myself the victim of a serious kidney trouble I should use this prepa ration." One year ago the Servia, while in a great storm, parted her two-inch rudder chain,-no wonder,-it 'was rusted t/rough! The key to human health is the condition of the kidneys, and they may long be diseased and we be ignor ant of the fact, because they give forth little or no pain. They in reality cause the majority of all the deaths, by pol luting the blood and sending disease all through the system. - A Sociable RturaI Virginian. . One morning just before the war, as my train drew up at Brandy Station, a chap mn a butternut suit and a home *made wool hait rushed up and ad dtressed me as I stepped to the groual': "Is you th'r clerk er this ye'r kyar?"

''T.he cattle have hair over their whole body, and if never carded they look, as bad, as the uncombea men, ahd must feel a great deal worse. It is too bad to compel the poor bruites to go all winter with out carding, and then it doesn't pay. They would do much better if carded every day,:and this should certainly be well done at least twice each week. if we only notice how much they enjoy being carded, and how grateful they look, and see how much better they thrive, we would not regret the time and labor.

WooD Aiie.---Wood ashes repre sent, all the mineral elements of vegeta ble growth, and contain everything the f armer must give his crops except eom nined nitrogen. Wood ashes will vary in composition and value with the kind of wood and the part of the tree. I will take the ash of the body-wood of the beech tree as representing the aver ago of wood ashes. A ton of such atshes contains 320 pounds of potash, worth 516, and 105 pounds of phos phoric acid (insoluble), worth $5.25. Omitting all the other ash constituents, which have some value of themselves, the potash. and phosphoric acid of a ton of such ashes are worth $21.25, or nearly six times the value of a ton of fresh horse dunu: :LuMra in; the- udder;, (iarget often leagves tlie 4gaby~f~y bag--one oi l't'e' big, hgrd tnl s; milk flows 'frouif'O quarteit or quarters-.in which such lunps 'occur, but tliey!'are:an an noyance as well as a disfigurement.
