FOR The Method. (From the Herald. Boston, Mass ) Like a thunderbolt frcm a clear sky a stroke of paralysis came to Mr. Frank T. Ware, the well known Boston auctioneer and appraiser, at 235 Washing-to- n street. He went to bed one night about six years ago seemingly In robust heatth. When few awoke hid left side was stiffened by the deadening of the nerves. The Interviewer eoughl out Mr. Ware to get the facts. He gave the Interesting particulars in hts own way: first shock fame very suddenly while I was asleep, but it was not lastIn Its efTects, and in a few weeks I ing was able to be about. A few months after, when exhausted by work and drenched with rain I went home In a very nervous state. The result was a second and more severe shock, after which my left arm and leg were prac. tically helpless. "My grandfather, who was a soldier tat the Revolutionary War. and lost an arm In the struggle for American Independence, died finally of paralysis. My father also died of paralysis, although tt was complicated with other troubles, and so I had some knowledge of the fatal character of the disease which is hereditary In our family. After the second shock I took warning, for. In all probability, s third would carry ms off. "Almost everything under the sun was recommended to me and I tried all the remedies that teemed likely to do any good,' electricity, massage and specialists, but to no (ffect. The only thing I found that helped me was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I verily believe that if It hadnt been for those pills I would have been dead years ago. "Yes, I still have a slight reminder of the last attack six years ago. My left arm Is not as strong as the other and my left foot drags a little, as the paralysis had the effect of deadening the nerves. But 1 can still walk a good distance, talk as easily as ever, and my general health Is splendid. I am really over sev- -' enty years old. although I am generally taken to be twenty years younger. "The Pink Pills keep my blood In good condition, and I belles e that U why I am so well. Mr. Ware has f very. appearance of a healthy man, and arrives at perfectly his office promptly at eight oclock every morning, although he has reached an age when many men retire from He - says that In his active life. pinion both his father and grandfather could have been saved If Pink Pills had been obtainable at that time. Xr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo-- c pie contain all the elements necessary to ' glj-- new life and richness to the blood "fid restore shattered nerves. They may be had of all druggists or direct by mall from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Bchenectady, N. Y.. at 69 cents per box, or six boxes for $2.60. Wanted a Hew Trial, humerous scene was enacted in the superior courtroom at Jackson, Ga., recently (according to the Atlanta Constitution). A negro had been charged with burglarizing a store. Colonel Watkins defended him, and was about to open the case with a well prepared oration of his innocence, when the negro quietly informed the colonel that he desired to plead guilty.- - Judge Beck accordingly read the law in the case and sentenced the negro for ten years. Dumbfounded at this long sentence, the negro rolled his eyes round and beckoned Colonel Watkins to come forward, and when the lawyer reached his aide, the negro gently whispered: Say, Mr. Wadklns, kain't yer peal fer a new A trial?"

H. I- - Russell, of the Wisconsin ..ExperLmeuL tlon, contains the following: Pasteurized and sterilized milk does not suffer decomposition changes nearly as readily is ordinary milk. The heating process far the eliminates by larger portion of the bacteria present In the milk, and with this diminution there Is a corresponding increase in the keeping properties of the product; either milk ought sweet for a considerable longer period than raw milk. Pasteurized and often the sterilized product, however, undergo sooner or later a fermentation Induced by the bacteria spores remaining in the milk. These changes differ from those . remaining we observe in raw milk. The milk curdles, but the character of the curd Is entirely different, and to the taste Is not usually very sour. These conditions are brought about by the presence of bacteria that are able to excrete rennet, and the soft. Jelly-lik- e curd seen in boiled or heated milk Is due to this ferment. Lactic acid or sour milk bacteria, as a rule, do not form spores, so they are easily destroyed by heat. The destruction of these widely-sprea- d organisms leaves g the milk needed with a rennet and butyric acid bacteria, which brings the peculiar change wMch Is noted In pasteurized or sterilized milk. The physical characteristics of milk treated by-h- eat compared with raw milk as a rule are much less certain. With the sterilized milk there Is a marked change in the physical constitution of the milk that cannot be readily detected. The application of heat at a temperature exceeding 158 degrees F. for 15 to 20 minutes produces a coagulation of certain proteld elements, and at the same time the milk acquires a peculiar cooked taste. With pasteurized milk this change is not so apparent, In fact, no cooked flavor should be perceptible. The physical constitution of the milk is undoubtedly somewhat modified, even with the lower degree of heat used. This is shown in the way rennet acts on pasteurized milk. The coagulation produced by this chemical ferment is entirely different in character, and appears much more slowly than when acting in fresh milk. For butter-makin- g purposes, or tor milk or cream consumed directly, the pasteurized process seems to have no injurious effects on the physical constitution of the material. Butter can be made from pasteurized cream, and aside from the difference in flavor, which is produced, there la no observable difference In the texture of grain of the product Pasteurized cream can also be used Indiscriminately for ordinary purposes, for whipped cream, and for general use. Milk treated by the pasteurized process yields as large a per cent of butter fat, when separated or raised by the gravity system, as the raw milk. By either process the milk is freed from any diseased bacteria that may have been derived from the cow, or may have fallen into the milk after the milk has been drawn from the animal. spore-bearin- young, or alxt: 5to pairs In all.

A writer in (he West Virginia Farm Reporter gives a gestation table, to which Is added an estimate of the proper age for reproduction, the length oi time during which the reproductive power continues, and the number of females vvl.b h may b? properly served by a single male. According to this table, the proper age for reproduction in the mare Is not reached until four years, and the reproductive period continues from ten to twelve years. The stallion should not he put to service until five years of age, and his reprodirctlve)ower is said to continue from twelve to years. We suppose these periods Cheap Silo.

In the region of the Garonne, the poorest of the humblest peasants rears every year a dozen geese, and fattens them on maize or mlllshorta. The gosllna are brought up like the chickens and turkeys members of the peasants family. The geeso are only reared for their liver; that, duly extracted, is sold, and the proceeds pay the rent The flesh is kept by the family, and potted in melted lard, and this preserve enters into a variety of succulent dishes in the regions of Bordeaux, Pau, etc. The peasants flavor their cabbage soup with a little of It, and it is more liberally served at family fetes, and on holidays. The geese are kept confined and literally stuffed, until there follows a fatty degeneracy of the liver, and just as this shows Itself with the animal and death is threatened, the bird goes to the block, and the liver, now developed into enormoua proportions, goes to the epicure, who pays a, fancy price for diseased liver. A Frightened Horse. When horse becomes frightened, demoralized or otherwise rattled about something he encounters, but does not understand, a good way to quiet him down is slm-pl- y to talk to him in a good tone of voice. If a horse gets frightened at something he sees in the road, stop him at once and give him a formal introduction to it, telling him in the mean time how very foolish he is to let such a little thing disturb him.

A - Fran-Cisc- g IF the rule, as there are many notable exceptions where the power to reproduce in both mares and stallions has continued for a considerable length of time beyond that Indicated. Tho proper age for reproduction by the cow and the bull Is placed at three years, which Is quite at variance with the practice. Bulla much younger are habitually used, and heifers, especially of the milking breeds, drop frequently calves at considerably under two years of age. The period during which the reproductive powers continue in the cow Is placed at from twelve to fourteen years and the bull at from eight to ten. The age at which the ewe should begin reproduction Is two years, and the power continues for six years. The ram begins at the same age and continues for seven years. The reproductive age In swine is placed at oue year for both sexes, and ta said to continue for six years. The number of females a stallion should serve ts put at from twenty to thirty; of a bull from thirty to forty; of a ram from forty to fifty and of a boar from six to ten.
