They Will Stay on the Farm.
After your boys are through with school,
or if they are not, give them a little pieoe of
land and let them have what they can make
from ib. Don't make slaves of them at any
time. If you can't lay up money without
working them to death, better not lay up
any.
When they go into the city they have a
moderately warm sleeping room, warm
bathroom and all modern conveniences.
They Dome home, go to bed in an ice cold
room, can't take a bath unless in the kitchen
or some warm living room. Is it any wonder
that a young man would rather work in
the city for $1.00 or $1.25 a day than to
work at home for $20.00 a month and board.
When he wants to go to town or elsewhere,
do not say the horses have worked too
hard.
Do fathers realize how cheap they can
arrange barn, house and out buildings that
they may be warm and convenient? Farm•
ing is looked upon as drudgery instead of
pleasure. Farmer alter farmer has worked
day after day laying up every cent possible.
Who gets it ? The boys and girls. They
say, " Father has worked himself to death
to earn what money he had and so we
thought we would take life easy."
Father take more pleasure with your
children. Don't think that every minute
must be spent on the farm. Teaoh them
the science of farming not the drudgery.
Keep them posted in politics and other local
matters. Teach them the farm le the place
for them unitise their talents are for other
purposes, then help them to gain that.
Don't make dairymen of them if they
like poultry better. Let them have their
own way once in a while. Don't make
them think they don't know anything. If
you loos a little by their mistakes, they
will profit by it more than you will lose.
Look out more, for the welfare of your
children and a little lees for your farm and
there will be lees abandoned farms, fewer
young men to go to the city, but more
pleasant country homes and more robust
children to look after the welfare of our
country in the years to come.
Food for Live Stoelc.
Few people analyze carefully or even
casually the object in view in furnishing
domestic animals with a brand of food or a
combination which "on the surface" seems
to be economical. Just here allow the
digression to protest against the continual
use of the word economy as e. rule of life by
narrow•viewed people who have never had
a correct idea of economy, and have never in
their lives scarcely practised economy. In
financial affairs money may be spent wisely
and the investment prove to bo in the di.
rection of economy, which simply is the
right use of anything.
True economy in feediug can be practised
best by those who have a good variety of
foods or by those who have ample means to
buy judiciously. Yet the brains to deter-
mine what to use and what varieties and
proportions to combine aro of greater conse-
quence.
It is economy, for instance, in moat came
for the owner of but one or two animals if
he lies an abundance of corn or wheat for
food to exchange some of it for oate, bran,
oil meal, roots, eta Thus by providing
variety more nutriment ie obtained for a
given eost. The health and constitution of
the animals is better maintained.
There is gain in maintaining even die.
positions and scouring better work from the
horse and better average products from the
dairy and the meat producers. The greater
proportion, too, of gain in weight of caroms
of beef or mutton, and of the fleece and in-
crease in flow of the cow's milk, is to be
taken into account. The simple matter of
one hundred pounds of bran for the family
cow in winter, added to the corn and straw,
is of great worth in the combination.
Treatment of Sick Horses.
Brea sbande decidedly foremost as the
food moat generally used for the invalid
horse; it acts as a laxative, is frequently
tempting to the appetite, and easy of diges-
tion. There is no part of the general treat-
ment more universal than offering this sub-
stance as change of food. Does rho horse
chow slight symptoms of cold, or fever, a
warm bran moan is a convenient plan of
steaming, and consequently of soothing the
irritable mecums membranes of the air
passages; it is a substitute for the more
etimulatiog diet he is accustomed to, and
gently promote the activity of the digeotivo
apparatus; 10 is also a convenient medium
for the giving of certain simple remedies.
When it is necessary to administer purga-
tive medicine, a bran mash or two renders
the bowels more susoeptiblo of its notion,
and a smaller drug is therefore required to
precinct) the desired effect. 'Bran mashes
may be given hot or cold— cold are perhaps
quite as grateful bo the horse; but the nib-
bling of hot mash in catarrhal affections is
particularly beneficial from the neeessery
inhalation of the steam. Of all the roots
with which horses aro temptmi,the oarrot,es

benofioial, It is eaid to bo somewhat diurto

CANADA HAS AN EYE ON ALASKA.
-.—
A Commission Sent to Devise a Way of
Controliing the Yukon River Trade.
Canada is making vig moue offorte to se
oure control of the business of the riolt
gold fields along the 'Yukon. River, says a
drivable paper, and to that end sent Williatn
Ogilvie and a party of the Canadian
Boundary Commission to Alaska to survey
a wagon road, probably along the Takou
River to the interior. Ogilvie and ,party
arrived in Alaska on Deo. 17, on the last
Mexioo,and in speaking of their intentions
the Alaska Neva of Deo, 20, published in
Juneau City, says :
"The party is outfitting here for the
purpose of making as accurate a survey of
the Takou River as the weather will per-
mit. The object is to acquire as complete
a knowledge of the topogaaphy along that
stream as oircumetancee will allow. Of
course the reeidente of this country will
understand that the weather is an import.
ant factor in such operations at thio time
of the year. The whole valley of the
river and adjacent country will as far as
possible be photographed. This work will
be continued to the head of canoe naviga-
tion. Thus far the work is to afford
knowledge for the use of the International
Boundary Commission, the information
acquired, of course, being et the disposal
of the Joint Commission. At the same
time close attention will be paid to the
practicability of the Takou River as a
route to the interior, and with Chia object
the survey will be carried from the head
of canoe navigation about seventy miles to
the head of Lake Teslin, or probably better
known here ae Aklin Lake. This will
settle the probability of a wagon road
being buiitto connect the coast wit n come
point on the headwatere of the Yukon.
"It is needless to mention to the resi-
dents of this part of the country the advant-
ages of tapping the Yukon country at
Teslin Lake, as it permits an uninterrup-
ted navigation from the extreme head of
probably the most southern branch of the
Yukon, permitting free and easy naviga.
tion for five menthe in the year from the
extreme head of the river to its mouth, a
distance of ppwarde 2,300 miles, about
two-thirds of which will run tbrough a
mountainous country, n condition which
probably obtains on no other river in the
world.
"While in the interior Mr. Ogilvie will
pay marked attention to the topography
of the surface, also the climatic conditions
as evidenced by the timber. ;It is possible
he may cross from Teslin Lake to Aklin
lakes to examine that part of the country.
If possible, and in the time at his dispoeal,
he will also examine the White Pass
from the head of Skagway Bay on Taiya
Inlet (commonly known here as Dyea) to
the Tagieh lakes. This is ot course con-
tingent on the time taken in the examin-
ation of the country between Takou Inlet
and Teslin Lake.
"Five white men accompany tSr. Ogil-
vie, whom he selected from the Canadian
party of the Boundary Commieeion. If an
intelligent, reliable Indian, who knows the
country between Takou and Testin can be
procured here, he will be taken along in
order to acquire as muah information as
possible about the country adjacent to the
route travelled over. Part of Mr. Ogilvie's
outfit is six pairs of Canadian snowshoes.
Nearly all the men have experieude in
enowshoeiug, several of them having tramp-
ed thousands of miles on just such shoes.
to the satisfaction of themselves and their
employers. .Another item of their outfit
is six toboggans. Mr. Ogilvie will depart
for the head of Taken Inlet in the course
of a few days, weather permitting He
expects to return in the first part of Febru-
ary, when he will likely devote a few days
to the examination of White Pass; then be
will make his way to Ottawa as speedily
as possible to submit hie official report and
plans of the work accomplished, and prob-
ably be here again about the middle of
April in conneotion with the closing up of
the international boundary survey work,
which ie expeoted to bo completed in July,
1895.
"The inap resulting from the joint labors
of the International Commission will be
prepared with all speed for the Commis-
sioners, who will discuss the position from
the treaty of 1825 between England and
Russia point of view. Whiohever of ,the
routes is moat feasibly reported upon will
iu all probability be opoued for travel at
an early date, making, as far as reasonable
expenditure will permit, an easy access to
the gold fields of the interior."
A Preacher's Salary.
Dr. John Hall, of New York, who ie said
to receive the largest salary of any minieter
in the United States, beoidos his princely
income of $10,000 a year, hae a beautiful
rectory on Fifth avenue, on one of the most
valuable blocks in the city. Though an
extraordinarily hale and hearty old gentle-
man, his wife, who is a frail, slim little
woman, with white hair and features that
must have made her a very beautiful girl
50' years ago, takes the greatest possible
care of her big husband, hovering over him
fondly as he prepares to go out, insisting
on hie wrapping up well, sees that he has
his rubbers and silk handkerchiefs, and

Ing the Water Over the Dykes—Lulu
Island Threatened with Obliteration—
Sea Island Under Water—Roars out to
Rescue Cattle.'
A despatch from Vancouver, il.C., Bays
—The waters of the Fraser river are higher
by two feet than during the terrible floods
of June. Hot weather (70 in the shade)
during the last three days brought down the
snow from the mountains, swelling an
unusually high tide. Then the Chinook
winds, whose peculiarity is to rush along
the surface of the water, caught the swol-
len river and baoked the water down
over all the dykes, which with-
stood the floods of June. Lulu Island,
where the greater portion of the cattle in
the province are roaming, is threatened
with obliteration, while Sea Island ie three
feet beneath the water. The water is com-
ing over the dykes on Lulu Island, and the
cattle have been driven to high knolls.
Ranchero have been flooded out for the
second time in six months. The Govern•
ment is Bending boats to rescue the cattle.
Bridges hitherto untouched by floods have
been swept away and roads destroyed.
There is no communication between subur.
ban towns and large cities. All the waters
in British Columbia have gone beyond their
bounds. In Vancouver cellars of wholesale
houses have been flooded and great
loss sustained for the first time
in its history. On Vancouver Island,
a hundred miles away, the floods have done
great damage on railroad lines. To add to
the general discomfort, snow in the mount,

ties of perishable freight now waiting for

instead of winter, the loss to the province
would have been irreparable. Word comes
from the Dominion and Provincial Govern-
ments that the work of building permanent
dykes several feet above high water mark
will be at once proceeded with, regardless
of cost.
IN A TRANCE ELEVEN YEARS.
A French Glrl Subsisting on Food Inject
ed Through a Broken Tooth.
There is a girl named Marguerite Bouyen•
val atThenelles, in the north of France,
near Saint Quentin, who is reported to have
been asleep for the past eleven years. A
goud deal of doubt has been thrown on this
phenomenal slumbering ease, not only in
Paris, but also in Thenelles and its vicinity
where there are two camps, one of the be.
Severe and the other of those who maintain
that the so.called Bleeping beauty rises at
night and hae a good supper. The matter
has been investigated by a Parisian, who
hae seen the girl, and found her as lean as
a skeleton and as stiff ae a corpse, but still
living. Her mother injects milk, peptone
and sometimes wine through a broken tooth
in the girl's mouth, Marguerite Bouyeuval
made away with a baby eleven years ago,
and the gendarmes were sent to her house,
The girl was so frightened at their approach
that she had an attack ot hysteria, which
lasted several hours, and at the end of
whioh she fell into a trance. The doubts
thrown on the continuation of the trance
have evidently been caused by the foot
that the mother of the Bleeping girl hae
made a good deal of money by exhibiting
her. A local doctor, who hae obeervud the
case daring the eleven years, informed the
investigator from Paris that Marguerite
Bouyeuval had really been sleeping during
the whole time. Occasionally she had
hysterical crises, but did not awake after
them. Other doctors have also agreed as
to the genuineness of the phenomenon, and
the Bleeping girl of Thenelles remains a
human mystery

In Germany, where no such subject is

snow the greater its power to protect the

D has often been contended by
physiologists and men of science gen-
erally, that nervous energy or nerv-
ous impulses which pass along the
nerve fibres, were only other names
for electricity. This seemingly plaus-
ible statement was accepted for a
time, but has been completely aban-
doned since it has been proved that
the nerves aro not good conductors of
electricity, and that the velocity of a
nervous impulse is but 100 feet per
second—which is very much slower
than that of electricity. It is now
generally agreed that nervous energy,
or what we ora pleased to call nerve
fluid, is a wondrous, a mysterious
force, in which dwells life itself.
A very eminent specialist, who
has staled profoundly the workings
of the nervous system for the last
twenty-five years, hae lately demon-
strated that two-thirds of all our
ailments and chronio diseases aro
due to deranged nerve centres within
sir at the base of the brain,
A11 know that an injury to the
spinal cord will cause paralysis to the
body below the injured point. The
reason for this is, that the nerve
fore() is prevented by the injury from
teaching the paralyzed portion.
Again, when food is taken into the
stomach, it comes in contact wIth
numberless nerve fibres in the walls
of this organ, which at once send a
nervous impulse to the nerve centres
which control the stomach, notifying
them of the presence of food; where-
upon the nerve oentres send down a
supply of nerve force or nerve fluid,
to at once begin the operation of
digestion. But let the nerve centres
which control the stomach be de-
ranged and they will not be able to
respond with a sufficient supply of
nerve force, to properly digest the
food, and, as a result, indigestion and
dyspepsia make their appearance.
So it is with the other organs of the
body, if the nerve centres which con-
trol than and supply them with
nerve force become deranged, they
are also deranged.
The wonderful euooees of the
remedy known as the Great South
American Nervine Tonic is due to
