In feeding, the calves there should be no guess work about the quantity ex the temperature of the milk. It costs about as much to keep a cow that makes five pounds of butter a week as it does ane that makes ten. The average price of butter the past year was two and a half cents a pound higher than the year preceding. The attendance on dairy schools i_ increasing, and the capacity of ail of diem will have to be enlarged' before many years. The well treated cow evinces a dis- -•;position to put her owner and her calf on the same footing. This is the best she can do by her owner. You cannot be happy while you have corns.

An English school board has pre- pared a circular on the evils of clear- ette smoking, which is to be distri ' bated among the parents of the school children. It points out that smoking. by boys impairs the eyesight, upsets the nerves, disturbs the digestive or- gans, and stunts growth. Local doc- tors are to be asked to go to the schools and address the boys on the evils of is Rheumatism of the face. brie Acid left in the blood by disordered kidneys lodges along the nerve which branches from the eye over the forehead, and across the cheek. to the side' of the nose, The cause is the same as in all Rheumatism— disordered Kidneys.

Influence of Repeated Detona- tions on tthe Eia'r" is the title of an rnteresti:ng artioie wihich has ' just been p'ublislhk d in the "Zeibstihrifb fuer Ohren Neikunde,' and which is from the. pen of Dr.. Muller, who has been studying the subject on the baat tlefuelds of the 'Transvaal. ' He ex- amined the ears of ninety-six soldiers before and after a battle took place. In forty-four of the caseas he found notable changes. In seven cases he. discovered small daem'orrhages in the form of little drops of blood, and in: one ol;he.r case he found an unusual- ly large ihemorrh.age. In thirty- selven cases he noticed that the firing had caused the margins of, the ear drums' to become quite red. He learn- ed, however, that all the ears thus af- fected: had not been in an absolutely, normal condition before the firing took place_ In twenty --six cases the soldiers were unable to ;hear words that were spoken in a Bow tone at the normal distance fox such tests, britt' only four of them complained of any buzzing in • tdeeir ears. In conclusion, Dr. Mulleir says that in hie opinion serious lesions of the ears :axe extremely rare lin the case oft those soldiers who arecalled upon to perform the regular two years' service. On the other hand, he says that the officers, and enpeciaify those wtho are required .to give instruction in firing for a long .period, are .apt to ' become partially deaf, and will, furthelrmpre, suffer from 'buzaiing in the ears. The doctor examined many such cases, and he found tat in 'all the ear drums were more or less:all- feicteld. The lesson w'hic'h his ex- periences in aoutb Africa have taught ;ham is that ft is nnwisel to; admit in- toi the artillery,•any; sold= or officer whose ears am net in a perfectly So'nnd Condition.. + 1 BRITISH MONEY IN THIS. smoking. A: Railway Proleet to Save flte.,&retie Yo'y age and Ilring Siberia Nen rer. The discovery of good petroleum springs in the Province of Petchora, in Northeast 'Russia, has induced the govelrnment to send an expedition to the mouth of the Peatchora River, wauch: will e"tamrne it with a view to the construction of a harbor. In close connection with this plan of building 'i harbor is the project enter- ta,ined by a company of foreign capi- talists, a company in which English money, too, is invested, of 'construct- ing, under the management of Herr Grate, the .engineer, a railway from the River Obi to the mouth of the Peiclrora, in order to spare English vessels the long and difficult voyage round to the mouth of the Obi, and. to bring instead the raw products of Siberia down to the vessels at the m;outhi of the Petehora. According to a report made to the Russian Governmen_t by Herr Cotte, who for a year past has been examin- ing the "tundra" between the rivers of Obi and Petchora, it seems that the building of the line could be man- aged without any great expenditure of capital and consequently every- thing now depends on the report of the expedition, sent to find a place for agood harbor, at the Petchoi:a's mouth.. Tlae realization of these projects, by assisting the export of Siberian pro- duce will confer a great benefit upon England. t illard's Lilliment Cures Daitdruh', Winnow Woshing Slade Easy.

In the ,'minter of 18913 a dealer in curios and antiques, who carried on business in Seymour place, Marylebone road, exhibited in his window, for a wager, a heap of coins, among which, in a prominent position, were a num- ber of English sovereigns, surmount-, ed' with a ticket inscribed :—"These coins 15s. ad.. each'. For a 'few days only." Although , there were many curious gazers there were 'no buyers, and the tradesman won his bet. Last summer a Parisian shopkeeper either for a wager or for advertise- ment, offered fox one month only a number- of twenty franc pieces at five fraises each. They were placed pro- minently in his window, and at tin:les attracted.'a small crowd, curious,, but sugpleioua.

An hour later another man appear- ed, hianding over the twenty franc, pieces to the wondering tradesman, requested the return of the 250 francs, stating that the purchaser was a gentleman of weak intellect, who. bad managed to elude' the vigilance of his friends, and as such was not one of whom advantage should. be taken.
