The effect was perfectly surprising.” 
“Which one of your symptoms yielded first?” 
“I could feel it taking hold of my system 
generally in less than a week. I got stronger 
all through. My appetite came back, and 
that was great encouragement. I got to 
walking from my chair to my bed; then about 
the room, and inside of the first week aston¬ 
ished them all by going down stab's.” 
“How about the local trouble in the lungs?” 
“The cough became easier and less frequent 
every day and the expectorations diminished. 
The pain left my lungs, also the sense of weak¬ 
ness. I picked up in flesh, resumed my duties, 
and could run my machine by the hour. 
There is no trouble now with my lungs and I 
have no cough, except a slight one in the top of 
my throat when I take cold. My cure is all the 
more wonderful because my mother died of

LOVETT'S GUIDE TO FRUIT CULTURE 
Dear Uncle Mark: I like the Rural, for 
it tries to help the farmer boys, aud I think 
they ueetl to be encouraged, for some of them 
have hard times. Their fathers don’t take as 
much interest in teaching them and giving 
them a good education as their city cousins 
have; but I would not trade places with them, 
for we can be the most independent of the 
two. We have health aud strength that most 
of the city boys don’t, and can work our way 
through and be self-made men, and that is 
something to be proud of, I think. Don t you, 
Uncle Mark? FRED corell. 
Chautauqua Co., N. Y. 
[Yes, indeed I do. I mean that farmer boys 
shall have every chance they will improve. I 
should be sorry to see my stout and healthy 
boys come to the city to grow pale and weak. 
Stay on the farm, boys. We will make farm 
life what it ought to be. Don’t run away 
from it now because it don’t suit you. Cow¬ 
ards run away, but brave people stand their 
ground-— u. M.] 
Dear Uncle Mark: I would like to join 
the Y. H. C. I am a boy 13 years old. We 
live on a farm one mile north of is orth Green¬ 
field, Mo. We have set out a young orchard. 
I help on the farm. I have one hog and two 
pigs. I have caught 47 rabbits and five quails. 
I did not kill the quails. Pa said that they 
were too pretty to kill. J. Walter adams.

people would come to the same way of think¬

AT HOME ON THE DELAWARE. 
Burlington, N. J., is the city of eosey homes 
and streets lined with shade trees. Its Delaware 
front is like a park. Back among its lawns 
nestle the most popular schools in the country. 
Taking advantage of an off-day your corres¬ 
pondent rati up to this beautiful town to see 
the sights and breathe a little fresh air. Drop¬ 
ping into the busy law office of Mr. H. S. 
Priekett, one of Burlington’s real live men, 
conversation naturally turned on the health of 
his family, and especially ou that of his mother, 
Mrs. H. C. Priekett, who had been miracu¬ 
lously spared to them about three years ago. 
I became deeply interested in her wonderful 
recovery, and asked to see her that I might 
hear from her own lips the details of her suf¬ 
fering and relief. 
Her home was but a step away at iVo. 1< 
Broad Street. 1 was ushered in and introduced 
to a matronly lady of sixty-five, who was 
presiding at a sewing machine in her comfort¬ 
able sitting-room, and who proved to be as 
bright and vivacious as a maiden of sixteen. 
“It was the winter of 1883,” she said, “when 
I took a violent cold, which settltxi ou my 
lungs and resulted in an unmistakable case of 
pulmonary consumption.” 
“Pardon me, Mrs. Priekett,” I said; “but 
will you describe to me your exact symptoms'? 
Your case is very interesting, and that is my 
excuse for being particular,” 
“Well, I had oppressive weakness in my lungs 
and severe pain. My cough was violent and 
constant, and I raised great quantities of thick 
pus. I wasted to a skeleton; had no appetite; 
suffered from fever and exhaustive night- 
sweats. Took my bed, on which I lay, gradu¬ 
ally dying, for weeks. By May of that year 
all hope was gone. I bad no longer strength 
to raise the phlegm from my lungs. My 
family were gathered to witness my death, 
which, the doctor said, might occur at any 
moment. How and why it came about I don’t 
know, but I rallied somewhat and-” 
“Did you get up aud about?” 
“Oh, no! except to be propped up in bed or 
carried to aud from a pillowed chair. I had 
seen an account of the Cannabis Wati va reme¬ 
dy and had cut it out of the paper. 1 handed 
it to my son one day and said: ’I will try one 
more remedy; there may be time yet.’ He 
took the slip, and in a day or two after handed
