THE HOME lu THE Krronsnf A little boiling water added to an omelet .as it thickens will prevent its being tough. A little salt thrown on the flame will clear it for broiilng meat. Marble wushs-tands that have become discolor- cd may be scoured first with wct salt and if that does not remove stain. with salt and lemon mixed. Salt mixed with vinegar is excell- ent for cleaning copper- utensils. To remove iron rust wet the spots with salt and leinon juice and hold the material over steam ofa ten ket- tle, then put out in the sun.

We are wont to think that every condition that is masked by difliculty of breathing is asthmatic, especially if there are repeated paroxysms. But there, are many affections, in no way related to asthma, of which shortness of breath is a symptom.

The most frequent cause of_ihe disease is poor bloot`:, aggravated by indoor confinement. or mental strain at school.

Shortness of breath occurs ln anaemia, s disease of the blood in which the red blood corpuscles, which( life l-119 0Xygen carriers. are greatly reduced in number. Certain diseases of the heart are sr constantly associated with difiicult\ in breathing that the term "cardia- asthma" has crept into medicine ant' been adopted as if the condition ii indicates were a definite variety oi true asthma. lt is not true asthma but it Intimates it closely, for it comes on in sudden paroxysms without ap parent cause, and like true asthma usually in the night. lt is not known just wily those at tacks occur; short breath is a symp tom of many forms of heart disease especially of those_forms ln which there is degeneration of the musclal wall or dilatation of the heart. bu' generally it is continuous or brough on by some unusual physical exertion The suddenness and the pnroxysmu character of the attack may be owin: to a temporary rise of blood pressurr that the weak heart cannot overconn by increased strength of ileat.

However, once the disease' is established there is very little likeli- hood of a complete cure being effec. ted Treatment is' only effectual in the early stages of the disease, that is, it must be- taken eerily if a cure results.

' § _FARM _ f A C0l’v‘lmOn Dlidilt Of Light Horlei. Ah' observing person interested in horses- cannot help but notice the large number of light and road horses which, when standing, pc-int one foot. in a restful posture indicating tender- ness. If one takes the trouble to ex- amine thc-re he fliids very often that the' foot is' smaller than the healthy foot. We have had, during re-:ent wee-ks, several questic-ns oil this trouble, whch is known as peculiar disease. The trouble- is caused by in- flamaton being set up in the bone and the flexor tendon that passes over' it. Tile cartilage covering the bone ir- after a tlnie. destroyed and a ul1'l011 of hone and tendon often occurs. The infiammatory action checks the growth of the hoof. causng it to con- tract and ,uppdatr smaller than its. neighbor. The heat causes a d1‘Y110Hl`- ‘and aids in the contraction. The sore- nc-ss and pain from the infiamation cause the lamenesz.. Hard roads are responsible for the concussion which real-ly causes the trouble. The weight of the animal coming down hard on the part during fast driving on a hard vement incitee the trtuble the disease due- in some cases to faulty conforn_1atic~n. or to heredity or both.

Tile direct rays' of ' sotoisns ron r=AsM_ane Unlniuded Men From the Front Will 'Make Good Farmers. There seems to be e fear that men who have had taste of soldier-ing will not make good farmers or farm hands. This notion is no doubt derived from past experience of men who have ees*-ved long terms of enlistment in times of peace ,and it should be re- cognized that the great msiorlty of the men who are taking part in the present war on our side, are not pro- fessional soldiers in the one-time ac- cepted sense, but citizens, who cn the strength of their own goc-d judgment have, for the duration of hostilities, given up their usual occupations with every intention of returning to them after the wer is over. The man who was ii farmer be-fore he enlisted as a soldier will not have lost the knack of farm work, and his army training will have made him more fit for the wc-rk, physically, than he was' before, while those who are indoor workers will have ecquired a liking for a life. such as can more easily' be fc-und in farming than in any other occupation.
