i ''DOCTORING OLD MEN." A li-lklnr Plftmr-l .rlvl ! ttlti Tlaao sloiltlirlt lea. Iu one of Harper's issues is given a i-iy line illustration of Kobt'tta' cele brated paintiiiR known as "Doctoring Old Time." it represents & typical old-timer, with his bellows blowing the du-t from n ancient cWk, with its cords and weights carefully secured. One of these clocks in this generation is Appreciated only as a rare lolic. The suggestive name, "Doctoring Old Time," brings to our n;ind an other version of the title, used for an other purpose, "Old Time Doctoring." We learn, through a reliabio source, that one of the enterprising proprie tary medicine firms of the country, has been for years investigating the formulas and medical preparations used in the beginning of this century, and eveu before, with a view of ascer taining why people iu our great grand fathers' time enjoyed a health and phy sical vigor so seldom found in the piesent generation. They ivuw think they have secured the secret of secret. They find that the prevailing opinion that then existed, that "Nature, has a remedy lor every existing disorder," was true. and acting under this be lief, our grandparents used the com mon '.herbs and plants. Continual trespass upon the forest domain, has made these herbs less abund.mt and has driven them further from civiliza tion, until they have been discarded, as remedial sgents because of the dif ficulty of obtaining them. 11. 11. Warner, proprietor of Warner's safe cure and founder of the Waruer observatory, Rochester, N. Y , has been pressing investigations in this direction, into the annals of old family histories, until he has secured somevery valuable formulas, from which his firm is now preparing med icines, to be sold by all druggists. Tuey will, we learn, be known un der the general title of "Warner's Log Cabin remedies." Among these med icines will he a "sarsaparilla," for the blood and liver, the stomach, etc., "Log Cabin cough and consumption remedy," Log Cabin hatr tonic," "Log Cabin extract," for internal and ex ternal use, and an old valuable discov ery for catarrh, called "Log Cabin rose cream." Among the list is also a "Log Cabin plaster," and a"L g Cabin liver pill." From the number of remedies, it will be seen that they do not propose to cure all ieeases with one prepara tion. It is believed by ninny that with these remedies a new era is to dawn upon suffering humanity and that the cloaejof the nineteenth cen tury will tee these roots and herbs, a compounded under the title of Warner's Log Cabin remedies, as pop ular as they were at the beginning AlthougU they come in the form of proprietary medicines, yet they will be none the less welcome, for suffering humanity has become tired of mod ern doctoring and the public hap great confidence iu any remedies put up by the firm of which II. II. Waruer is the head. The people have beeome suspicious of the effects of doctoring with poisonous drugs. Few realissethe usurious efiVscta following the pre scriptions of many modern physicians. These effects of poisonous drugs, al ready prominent, will become more pronounced in coming generations. Therefore we can cordially wish the old-fashioned new remedies the best of erece?s. INTENSELY OBLIQINU. A. I-aily Customer' Strnegle with At- romodntlng Slea;lrl. When the saleslady condescends to unbend sufficiently to be affable she is most gracious and affable indeed. Al though not paid for doinff ao, she is often perfectly willing to give you a great deal ot advice, of which you may think you do not stand in need. 'Let me see your black passemen terie," said a Detroit lady to one of these obliging salesladies the other day. What did you wish it for?" she asks eweetly. "For a black silk drees.'" "You wouldn't want cut steel trim mings, would you." "No." Oh, I was just going to say that we are selling cut steel almost entirely now for trimmings; still, if you prefer the passementerie, I suppose " Iet me. see that narrow piece." "That is hardly as wide as you will want," &he says calmly, as she hands you a piece you don't want, and says: "Now, if 1 were you, I'd have this on the skirt, and " "Let me see that other piece. "There isn't enough of it, and besides it's "I want but a little piece." "Oh, well, here it is; but don't yu think this oak leaf pattern prettier? J would certainly prefer it if I were you." "Let me see & piece a trifle wider. "I don't think that we have any that you would care for. It seems to me that this wheat pattern would b level r. I have some of it on a black dress and you've no idea how ' "Haven't you other patterns?" Oh, yes; I was just wondering how you'd like a new cut steel pattern we nave,-' "I don't want cut steel. " "So? It's all the T&gG now, and it trims a black dress beautifully, and oh, here it is; now, how would you like a collar of this, and " "Not at alL I want jet." "Oh, do you? ive are selling: so much of the steel now that I thoug-ht I'd show it to you. I kno.r I'd prefer it if it was me. How would von like beaded escurial lace?" "I don't want lace of any kind." "No? A friend of mine has a black silk trimmed with the la;e and it's perfectly lovely. It's lighter than the passementerie, too, and oh, here is just what you want." "It's entirely too wide." Oh, I don't think so. We sell great deal of it much wider than this. Now, supposing you should have wide plait on one side of the skirt and a row of this " "I don't want any for the skirt. "No? Then you want epaulettes for the shoulders." . "No, I don't." i "They're all the style." If you are plucky enough to hold your own against a maiden of this kind you may in time get what you want. Dctr&it Free Press. Date Cake.

Sir John Franklin, Dr, KiChaedson and Captain MacKenile say the same in reference to their journeys in the Arvtle regions of North America. 5chwatka, in his report on the raft- lourney he made down the Yukou river, in Alaska, says that niiisquitoes have boon known to drive reindeer from an entire district, and that grliis ily bear have been found stung to death by these lerrihlo Insects, which entered their nostrils in swarms and attacked them where they could not brush them away.

Among the desires that somet linos rial in satisfaction, without regard to the happiness of others, Is that of sym pathy. Now, of all the pleasures of life sympathy would seem to be one of the sweetest and purest. It unites brethren and friends In the closest bonds; it lifts burdens, soothes lorrow, multiplies joys and promotes human brotherhood. Flowing natur ally from warm and loving hearts Into jmtaful ones, it blesses both giver and receiver. It is the living spark which kindles all sorts of benevolent enter prises, builds hospitals, schools and churches, promotes reforiss, draws men away from vice and guides them Into paths of virtue and self-respect. Yet this beneficent factor In human Ufa Is not unfreqneutlyabosodby those ho selfishly seek it. Not to mention those who try to a waken it In others for the sake of the material benefit whtoh may come to them, there is a large class of people who crave it for Its own sake as a sort of indulgence, which they think they must have at whatever cost to others. They are never oonteut unless some one la con doling with them and pitying them, and the more sympathetic pain they can Induce their friends and ueighbors to feel the better satisfied they are. So sweet a morsel do they find this to be that they treasure every ailment. so as to recount it; they dwell upon their disappointments, their trials, and their woes, cherishing the memory of them to pour them into the ears of every willing listener, and to compel him to feel something of the suffering whioh they so diffusely por tray as their own. Of course tills process leads Insensibly to great exag geration. Such is the action of the mind, that whatever is dwelt upon ex clusively assumes magulfled propor tions; and a slight headache or other physical discomfort, which might be forgotten amid pressing Interests, may become almost unbearable when al lowed to occupy all the thoughts. Much more Is this the case with mental anxieties or troubles, and. be they slight or severe, the habit of brooding over them always augments their hard ship. In recounting them to one whose sympathy Is hoped for the tendency to further exaggeration is increased, and very often the listener is made to feel a sympathetic pain, which Is really far greater than that which has been inflicted for his benefit. Certainly noth ing could injure the cause of true sym pathy more than such fraudulent and mean attempts to obtain ft. Its power ilea in its perfect freedom and in the reality of the suffering which it seeks to relieve. W hert it is wasted on sham afflictions or drawn out by selfish angling for it, there will always be a reaction and a hardening of the heart Much sympathy Is thus crushed out ol existence that would otherwise be per manently active la blessing the world Those who seek in this way fo sympathy in all their real and fancied troubles are adding to the dlstres- ' of human life, instead of to Its happi ness. When they meet with any good fortune they seldom call upon others to rejoice with them. Their joys they ar oonteut to monopolize, but their troubles of every kind they want to share. With one of a generous and noble spirit It would be exactly the re verse. He would bury his griefs iu his own bosom, hide his pain when ever it was possible, be mostly silont about his diseases, his disappoint ments, his annoyances, his trials; but, on the other hand, he would deltght in emphasizing all that was glad and beautiful and bright, that others, too. might partake of his pleasure. Mon taigne says: "I daily endeavor to shake off that childish humor and in humane conceit which causeth that by our griefs and pains we ever desire to move our friends to compassion and sorrow for us, and with a kind of sympathy to eondols our miseries and passions. A man should, as much as he can, set forth and extend his joy; but, to the utmost of his power, suppress and abridge his sorrow." There are enough clouds In every life to make each generous person anxious not to increa.se them by adding his own, but to chase them away, as far as possible, by spreading abroad all the surahlne that enters into his life to ch er and bless mankind. And the sympathy which he would not strive to obtain, but which he was always will ing to bestow, will be extended free and unasked, and he will gratefully receive all the comfort and cheer which it so plentifully boars.

On the farm dispense with shoes, unless the land is very rocky. Feed your horse regularly three times daily, but never over-feed. f Water before feeding, but rot while the horse is hot from work. Use the whip very little, nnd never when the animal shies or stumbles. Never leave a horse standing un hitched.' It is the way to make them runaways. - Do not storm and fret Be quiet and kind, and the horse will be so too, in most cases. . Give a horse a large stall and a good bed at night. It is important that he lie down to rest. If a horse is vicious and unmanage able at your business, sell it to some one that can control him. Hay or other ground feed is indis pensable, and ground corn or hominy is better than whole corn. A cotton-card is one of the best in struments for grooming a horse. It cleans better than the comb. Do not expect your horse to he equally good at every thing. The horse, like the man, must be adapted to its work. Near the close of a journey let the horse walk. If covered with sweat rub off with a rag. to prevent too sudden cooling. Collar galls and bruises are benefited by washing with Bait water. Wash shoulders daily when using the horse. Brine is good also for stiff joints. When flies are bad, wash -the horse all over lightly with a weak solution of carbolic acid. If you have not the acid, apply surgeon's oil on the flanks, neck and tender narto. Books outlive empires. They- fly without wings, walk without feet; bouses of supply are they that, without money or price, feed men suffering from soul-hunger; loaves that increase as they are broken, . and, after feeding thousands, are ready for thousands more.

Not I.Ike tbe Fnllh st yle m. Well ma the Aiueriean. The American way of riding a, horse Is tho only way that comfort can be had for both man and Wast. By tho Ameri can way I mean sitting in tho saddle. I am sorry that a great many gentle men of this country are using tho Kn- glish stylo on horseback that Is, they rise iu tho saddle with the motion of the horse. Last summer when I was in England 1 noticed this stylo par ticularly. I don't see how it can be com fortable, and I know it is any thing but graceful to seo a man bumping up and down in his saddle. The F.nglish who saw us rido soon came to this conclusion. They agreo that the American style was tho only style nnd soon began to copy us. Kxpert rider came down to see me. They tried th American style, and now many gcntlo men can bo seen every day in their park riding the Americau style. Tc ride projicrly you must sit lirmly ic your saddle. (!t a comfortable sad dle to Iwgin with. Then sit squarely iu it. Have your stirrups long enough to save some of the weight from the home's baek and so that you run raise yourself in them wjien necessary. I always raise myself in the saddle to shoot. I can get in a steadier position nnd get a better aim. When hitting on your horse grip him with your legs, between your hip and your kneo. Sit erect and hold your reins low down and short enough to feel his head. The first thing a rider should do is to louro his horse. Learn the different gaitg of tho horse and then ride with the home go with his motion. Tills i$ less tiring to tho horse and to the rider. II'. F.

Mr. Nhk Nhe l Far !. Mommilln Thsn Her American Slater. Curious as It may soem in n nation so highly and In many respects so arti ficially clvlllt'd, the virtues which we find most conspicuous on French soil aro those which in the United States are ns conspicuously absent. Filial piety, the absence of which Is mourned by nearly every American father and mother to-day, still forms tho sub stratum of t he best qualities to be met with among the French In every rank of society. It Is not only the devotion of a son to Ills mother, a fooling which in Franco is so unfortunately mingled with sentimentality as to have lost. In tho eyes of most people, all the merits it might originally have possessed; but the obedloneo and respect of a son oven to a bad father Is taken for granted, and tho most tyrannical abuse of paternal authority Is not considered in the least as abrogating filial duty. The Frenchwoman often seems what she la not. When lient on amusing her self and It Is through the medium of this mood of hers that we generally weigh her character and judge hor actions she leaves, It is true, all care at homo and enters upon the business of pleasure with the spirit of a child. But It is unjust to call her frivolous and idle on this account. Perhaps no womeu aro such Industrious and serious workers as those of Franco. Tim material prosperity of thoir country Is certainly largely attributable to their admirable, capacity for making them selves useful In all departments of life from which they are not shut tint by walls they can not hope to scale walls which they show their practical wis dom by not trying to pull down. The typical Frenchwoman's charac ter Is not deep, but it has been traced out by nature with no unsteady hand. Her spirit ot independence, her com parative freedom from that timidity which Is often represents as a charm ing weakness of tho sex, have enabled her to conquer much of the ground that ladongs traditionally to man. simply qualifying herself to compete with him industrially and intellectually In a multitude of ways. She likes to be self-reliant, and to feel that In case of need she can do battle with the 'vorld. Although Frenchwomen generally marry early and under conditions of parental Influence which invest the act of putting on tho bridal veil with about as much sentiment an that of taking to their first long gown or gathering up of their girlish tresses into a maidenly roll of plaits, tho majority of them make good wives, and still butler mothers. Tho Frenchwoman is not, perhaps, tho most affectionate of sjwinaes, but in her devotednes to her children she is not to bo surpassed, while the Interest she takes in her husband's work and her desire to help hlmTor the common good, throw Into bold relief the strongest side of hor character. If he Is n doc tor, she will make out his bills for him; If a tradesman, she will look after th-j account and preside over the till; whatever his occupation, she wilt lend him a helping hand. What 1 wish to lav stres ou is th fact that tho Frenchwoman, although extremely emotional at times. In the ordinary business of life looks at noth ing through a purely romantic and sentimental medium. It is this pecu liarity which marks tho chief distinc tion between her and tho Aiunrioan woman. The latter js jut as pus-donate, but she is less practical. There is a dreamy sentimentality in .he natu'-e of our American woman teat easily and frequently merge into religious melancholy a malady almost unknown in France. From tuaiden hiii to old ago her views of life aro romantic Kveu after much misfor tune and disappointment, she rarely sees things as they really are. Con sequently, she U not the helpm-ite in u material sense that tho Frenchwoman is. But the deficiency Is abundantly made up in other ways. It is tho ex ception when she loves her children more than -her husband, while tho Frenchwoman's affection for her off spring is generally all-absorbing. Tho Mntiment;tftty of tho American woman is at once her strength and her weak ness. It is her strength because it is Intimately associated with strong re ligious instinct and roverenco for moral - principles which color all her thoughts and direct her conduct. It Is her weakness, because it is apt to make her rely too much upon others and to cause her to hope when she should act. Frank .i.c, im Philadelphia l'res.
