Her quick ears had caught the sound of foot- steps running up the stairs. She had forgotten until then that the hour she had appointed to see her son: was near. "He is coming,' she said to her- self, and with a swift movement she flung herself into her chair and took up her book. The strong call on her nerves e| brought back her real self.

There is with some forms of stomach trcuble, an abnormal craving for food which is frequently mistaken for a "good appetite." A lady teacher writes from Carthage, Mo,. to explain how with good food she dealt with. this sort of hurtful hunger. "1 have taught;school for fifteen vears. and up to nine years ago had good. average health.

Kainit is a form of potash ferti- lizer which is extensively used as a direct application, especially on cotton as a specific to prevent blight, and on corn to drive away cutworms and rot lice, as a consti- tuent of home-mixed fertilizers, and is also an ingredient of low- grade commercial fertilizers. It is not the best form in which to se- cure potash when it has to be ship- ped far, as the available plant food consists. of about 12 5 per cent. of actual potash, equal to 23 per cent. sulphate, the remainder be- ing' sulphate amd chloride of inage nesia and chloride of sodium, all of little if any value as plant food. © It is best therefore, when a high grade article is desired, to use sulphate or muriate of potash. Sulphate of potash is suitable for evéry crop and soil. It contains forty-eight pounds of actual pot- ash in each-100 pounds. It is the right form to use for tobacco, po- tatoes and fancy fruit and vege- tables. The manufacture of sul- phate is more costly than that of p|muriate, hence the selling price of. sulphate is somewhat higher.

'He compared the case of a Pennsylvania farmer," con- tines, the historian in question, "and 'a Pennsylvania iron imple- ment maker whose properties ad- joined. Under a vrotective policy the farmer sunnlied the ironmak- er with bread meat vegetables, fruit, fodder for horses, ete. and the ironmaker supplied the farmer with all the iron, iron implemeats, etc., which he needed. Assuming that a change is made apd the, Pratective policy abandoned, 'the farmer then discovers that he can buy his iron implements cheaper from Europe than from his néigh- bor, assuming that he sells 4 suf- ficient quantity of flour in Europe to enable him to effect the nur- chase of the iron. He ultimately discovers' that the cost of carriage ta the coast, transportation by sea to England, insurance and cartage on arrival, does not enable him to receive such a good reward for his labor as he formerly did when sel++ lipg' hiy 'flour to his neighbor, the' ironmaker. He therefore, deter- mines to sell his flour as, before to his nek LON But meantime the farmer discovers that while he has" been: purchasing his irén imple- ments from Europe his neighbor, the ironmaker, , has been compelled to stop his works: and dismiss his employees not having sufficient work far them.
