into the table of nitrate of amyl',
and thus ehristened the patieut

practitioners put together. It there-

her to be a person of inferior exper-

height of summer, Mrs. Forrester
rose from. her bed and spent the
hours before breakfasting in going
the round of the fame, inspecting the
stock, examining the hedges, and.
erossomestioeing the men; afterwards
she retired into an inner sanctum, a
sort of ball laboratory, half carpen-

carefully stowed away the lotions,
draughts, and cumiing compounds
wherewith she suetained her reputa-
tion. On non -hunting days she em-
ployed herself by nailing, hamMering,
planing, sawing, mending, and manu-
facturing the verioue articles in use
on the premiees. Sometimes she ap-
peared for a day or two with her arm
in a sling or fingers bandaged • up,
due to some such untieriely accident
as the slip of a chisel, the shutting
of a knife, or splintering of a bit of
wood. In a virgin country where

VETT-10D FOR TURKEYS.
Such severe losses have been sus-
tained in recent years by turkey
breeders, due largely to lack- of let-
ality in the breeding stook, that
many are beginning to practice the
outdoor method of raising their tur-
keys. The birds are given neither
shelter nor roosts, even in winter,
although some growers provide an
opeu shed to -which the birds have
free access in severe storms. The
turkeys are compelled to Shift them-
selves, the idea being to imitate nat-
ural cceiditioes as closely as potei- 1
0.
They are fed liberally on whole
grain and in the -spring Etre provided
With barrels for neste, but there is
as little interference as possible with
their ways of living. Instead of suf-
fering from this seeming neglect,
they appear to enjoy better health,
are more vigorous, less subjecE to
diseases, and the epidemics which
kill so many flocks seldom attacik
them. This method is applicable
only on large farins or places Wfiere
the turkeys can have free range. If
one has toconfine his stock too
elosely. he had much better give ,up
turkeys and keep ducks,.
"flaying thus seen the library, I de-
scended ifito the Pope's private gar-
den, full of fountuins, orange trees
and pleasant walks. ITere are three
unavoidable wetting places to these
that are aot acquainted with the
garden; as that of the door of the
entrance; that in the midst of the
great alley; that where the pineapple
stands e., the fatuous 'pigna");
and that at the door as you go out
toward the Belvedere Garden; that
also as you go down to the iron
ship, upon the stairs, is not to be
avoided, (These 'wetting places,
where unawares the visitor was
sudabnly soused, were considered in-
tensely funny in the seveoteentb, e,ene
tury. No Roman villa was perfect
without ingenuities of the kind.) For
I saw in this gardeu the pineapple of
brass gilt which stood anciently up-
on the top of the Moles Hadriane
(Castle of St. Angelo), which is twice
as high as a man can roach and about
thirty feet in compass; and the two
peacoeles of brass (bronze) gilt also,
which stood anciently upon Scipio
Africanus' tomb, and some theca- or
four yards long,

IIADITS OF NONAGENARIANS.
In the study of the lives of seven-
ty-three persons 'more than ninety
year old living in the city of Dres-
den. Saxony, it has been disceiyered
that all sleep in closed roome at
night and a,bli.or bathing, ancl all
sleep eight or nine hours 'daily. They
vary in 501110 of their habits, but
these three --plenty of sleep, and
avoidance of draughts at night and
ot bathing-eare common to all. The
conclusion of the' Government inves-
tigation points to these es essential
elements of the secret of old age.
